Gallium (Ga)Essential daily amount: Unknown
Typical diet deficiency: Unknown Amount in the average body: unknown Amount in TerraPond: 21 ppm; 105 mcg The role of Gallium is a mystery, yet it is a trace element because it is present in the body tissue of humans and animals in extremely small trace amounts. It seems to have a role as a metabolic catalyst of some kind, and likely works in coordination with other minerals to assist the efficiency of body processes. The amounts of gallium in normal body tissue and depletion rates are not studied. Germanium (Ge) Essential daily amount: Unknown
Typical diet deficiency: Unknown Amount in the average body: unknown Amount in TerraPond: 10 ppm; 50 mcg A hyper-trace element that plays an important role in aging prevention of cells and perhaps the retardation of cancer cell growth. It improves oxygenation, supports immune function, and toxin elimination. Studies in Japan have shown improvements in cholesterol and arthritis from taking 100-300 mg of this rare substance. This is a classic case of an under-researched, yet emerging mineral of some importance, yet which latent orthodoxy has little interest in studying, analyzing, or registering as ―required‖. Don‘t look for this element in your off-the-shelf multivitamin. Gold (Au) Essential daily amount: Unknown
Typical diet deficiency: Unknown Amount in the average body: 0.00028 oz Amount in TerraPond: 5 ppb You don‘t have to be told that gold is an interesting and exciting mineral. But you probably did not know that it presents no danger of toxicity to humans. Like silver, it is a powerful infection prevention agent. It is present in all bodies and affixes to bone marrow, liver and spleen. It stimulates cellular immunity, acts as an antitoxin, heals wounds, and supports cardiovascular health. It‘s also expensive! Iodine (I)Essential daily amount: 150-250 mcg
Typical diet deficiency: unlikely Amount in the average body: 0.00056 oz Amount in TerraPond: Nil Iodine is an important trace element that regulates thyroid function. Millions of people worldwide, and some at-risk groups in the US are deficient despite the act of adding it to our table salt supply. Adequate iodine levels slow aging processes and helps build healthy skin. Iron (Fe)Essential daily amount: 10-20 mg
Typical diet deficiency: 2-20 mg: situational Amount in the average body: .17 oz Amount in TerraPond: 4.35%; 200 mg; 1000%* Many people think we have a lot of iron in our bodies because they know that it makes our blood red. But it is a trace mineral, not a macro-nutrient. Nevertheless, even in our meat-eating culture, more than 25% of Americans are iron deficient! This is because they do not eat the right kinds of iron-rich foods, and they are not eating iron that is easily assimilated. Iron is utterly indispensable for life because it is the principle mineral agent in cardiovascular function. The need for iron is very situational, based on age, sex, and timing. Iron deficiency is normally resolved with a proper diet; but most people have no idea if they are deficient or not. Toxicity can occur with extreme overdoses; however the FDA warning about iron has nothing whatsoever to do with iron after it is assimilated in your body. It is a warning about some forms of iron, such as ferrous sulfate that can be irritating to the lining of the stomach; kind of like the warning that aspirin can upset or cause stomach bleeding. Because it is so critical for life, the human body maintains an efficient recycling process for its iron. However, Iron supplementation is a wise idea with little risk because of the body‘s self- regulation of iron uptake...the intestinal walls are highly selective as to how much iron is allowed to pass through. For example, when iron reserves are low, iron absorption from a meal may double. The iron in TerraPond is Fe203, a moderately absorbable form of iron that is held in ionic suspension. If the body needs more iron, it will signal proteins to grab the iron oxide and utilize it; otherwise the iron in TerraPond will stay bonded or re-bond to the anionic silicate and will pass through the body without being absorbed and without doing harm. In 40 years of commercial availability, no incidences of iron toxicity have occurred through the use of these minerals. Lanthanum (La) Essential daily amount: Unknown
Typical diet deficiency: Unknown Amount in the average body: unknown Amount in TerraPond: 45 ppm; 225 mcg Rare earth elements are found in relatively high concentrations in the earth's crust. And there are 17 of them in the periodic table of elements. Such elements is called a ―rare-earth element‖ because they are more difficult to mine and extract than equivalent sources of transition metals (due in part to their very similar chemical properties), making the rare earth elements relatively expensive. The use of rare earth elements in modern technology has increased dramatically over the past years and their nutritional applications are only beginning to be discovered. Remember, as with all trace elements, very minute proportions are needed to catalyze numerous metabolic and enzymatic processes, many of which we are only beginning to comprehend. Lead (Pb)Essential daily amount: Unknown
Typical diet deficiency: Unknown Amount in the average body: 0.0048 oz Amount in TerraPond: Nil Lead has always existed in the environment and although today‘s exposure levels are greater than in the distant past, even prehistoric populations would have been exposed to tiny amounts of lead. In fact it is likely that lead plays a metabolic role, in very small amounts in the body. It has been identified as a critical, essential element in many animals...in very trace amounts. It is unlikely that with inevitable universal exposure to this heavy metal, mankind was intended to be completely intolerant of it, or that toxicity rapidly builds up. It is more likely that there is a biological role for it than that is inherently harmful in tiny doses. Once again, CEMC believes natural, ionic, colloidal minerals behave differently in the body than man-made variants. TerraPond minerals can adsorb and remove heavy metals from the body, and is a good source of calcium and iron, which are elements needed to guard against lead toxicity. Magnesium (Mg)Essential daily amount: 400 mg
Typical diet deficiency: 100-200 mg Amount in the average body: 0.76 oz Amount in TerraPond: 2.88%; 144 mg; 36%* Magnesium is an important element for plants and animals. Chlorophylls (responsible for the green color of plants) are compounds known as porphyrins and are based upon magnesium. Magnesium is required for the proper working of some enzymes. Magnesium plays a role an over 300 known important biological functions in humans, such as: enzyme synthesis, hormone balance, assimilation of calcium, potassium, phosphorus, thermal regulation, Vitamin C and E compatibility, immune function, reduced aging and pH control. The latest government study shows a staggering 68% of Americans do not consume the recommended daily intake of magnesium. Even more frightening are data from this study showing that 19% of Americans do not consume even half of the government‘s recommended daily intake of magnesium. Taking suggested servings of these minerals between meals will help deliver more magnesium in bio- available, ionic molecular form than eating a serving of most magnesium-rich foods. Manganese (Mn)Essential daily amount: 4-8 mg
Typical diet deficiency: atypical Amount in the average body: 0.00056 oz Amount in TerraPond: 0.04%; 2 mg; 25%* Manganese intervenes beneficially in numerous enzymatic reactions, particularly in collagen formation, glucids and bone formation. It also reduces inflammation and allergic reactions in the intestinal tract. Considered a universal anti-allergen, it may be involved in remediating hay fever. In combines well with cobalt, copper, and Vitamin B‘s. It is possible that people with autoimmune/ hyper-immune issues such as allergies would benefit from increased uptake of Manganese. Mercury (Hg)Essential daily amount: Unknown
Typical diet deficiency: Unknown Amount in the average body: unknown Amount in TerraPond: Nil Mercury can act as an antiseptic and can be an effective treatment in urinary infections. It is used as a preservative in some vaccines. However it is also a known carcinogen at low doses. So its nutritional or medicinal value is likely dramatically sacrificed by its risks. TerraPond contains no Mercury. Molybdenum (Mo)Essential daily amount: 200-500 mcg
Typical diet deficiency: atypical Amount in the average body: 0.0003 oz. Amount in TerraPond: 3 ppm; 15 mcg This interesting and hard-to-remember element is essential in minute amounts in human and animal organisms. It is needed to regulate sulfites that are present in foods. It plays a role in: protein synthesis, metabolizing iron and nitrogen. It harmonizes cellular function and reduces risk of asthma attacks. It is a component of several enzymes and helps maintain a healthy nervous system. Interestingly, it can be used to treat bad breath and mouth lesions. It can play a factor in impotence of elderly men, alcohol detoxification and has been identified in reduction of cancers. And to do all this, only extremely insignificant but necessary amounts are required, reminding us of the tremendous importance of trace elements and their nearly overlooked critical nature. Yet if the diet consists of mainly refined foods, the RDA of molybdenum will not be reached! This amazing mineral was added to the official list of "essential" elements in 1953. |
