ALKUVESI - MINERALS
IMPORTANCE: Minerals and trace elements are crucial for our body, ensuring our vital functions operate optimally to maintain our health.
PROBLEM:
Over the last century, our diet has become noticeably one-sided. This shift is evident when comparing the mineral composition of today’s standard diet to that of the past. Modern diets typically include only a handful of individual minerals. This deficiency stems from intensive farming practices, which, while increasing yield through the use of one-sided fertilizers, often neglect essential components, especially trace elements.
While typical NPK fertilizers may contain around 10 minerals at most, the broader impact on plant resilience is concerning. Weaker plants necessitate increased pesticide and plant protection agent use, ensuring profitability. This problem extends beyond plants, ultimately affecting humans at the top of the food chain.
Recent research suggests individuals should derive over 70 minerals from their diet. Yet, the “nutrient impoverishment” from industrialized farming especially limits the intake of rarer minerals. This deficiency has been linked to rising rates of chronic diseases, allergies, depression, and other health issues.
SOLUTION:
Alku Minerals offers a wholly natural mineral extract enriched with over 72 minerals. Suitable for dietary supplements or as an ingredient in food and drink products, this extract previously featured as a “secret” component in select electrolyte and sports drink powders.
Alku Minerals’ extract not only fortifies food but also naturally enhances flavor and improves preservation. It’s an opportunity to elevate the nutritional profile of food products without compromise.
ADDRESSING THE ISSUE HEAD-ON:
Many grapple with chronic mineral deficiencies, leading to persistent health issues. While dietary supplements can help, they might be unaffordable for many. Integrating these essential minerals into everyday foods can be a solution.
By enriching common foods with this natural mineral extract, we can enhance their nutritional value, taste, and shelf life organically. This approach allows individuals to address mineral deficiencies enjoyably and conveniently.
The renewed presence of these vital minerals in our diet aligns with Hippocrates’ famous adage, “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.”
COMPOSITION OF MINERAL EXTRACT:
This product contains one primary ingredient: sodium-depleted and filtered water from the Great Salt Lake (available in both liquid and dried forms). Apart from essential minerals like magnesium, potassium, and phosphorus, chloride and boron, the product contains trace amounts of the following naturally occurring minerals, i.e. elements: bromide, carbonate, calcium, silicon, nitrogen, selenium, phosphorus, iodide, chromium, manganese, titanium, rubidium, cobalt, copper, antimony, molybdenum, sodium, strontium, zinc, nickel, tungsten, germanium, scandium, vanadium, tellurium, tin, lanthanum, yttrium, silver, gallium bismuth, zirconium, cerium, cesium, gold, beryllium, hafnium, samarium, terbium, europium, gadolinium dysprosium, thorium, holmium, lutetium, erbium, ytterbium, neodymium, praseodymium, niobium, tantalum, thallium, rhenium, indium, palladium and other elements, it includes trace amounts of numerous naturally occurring elements found in pristine inland seawater. The product is vegan.
PRODUCTION OF THE MINERAL EXTRACT:
Our mineral extract, a complex of over 72 ionic trace elements, is nature’s creation. Historically, plants have dissolved minerals from the soil, some of which eventually reach oceans and ncient inland seas. Our mineral source is unique due to its lack of outflow, leading to significant mineral accumulation.
Our partner responsibly collects these minerals from the untouched shores of this inland sea nature reserve. There’s no mining involved, and even electricity is avoided during production. Using solar energy, excess water is evaporated from collected inland sea water. The resulting concentrated extract undergoes ultrafiltration to ensure purity.
Each production batch undergoes rigorous testing in an external accredited laboratory, ensuring safety and consistency.
Our mineral extraction process is environmentally conscious, making it arguably the purest mineral extract globally. We believe it’s time to reintroduce these crucial minerals to the world, enhancing the quality of life for all.
