Trace Minerals
What Are Trace Minerals?
Trace minerals, including iron, copper, zinc, selenium, strontium, molybdenum, manganese, fluoride, iodine, chromium, cobalt, and vanadium, are essential nutrients like macrominerals (sodium, potassium, chloride, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, and sulphur), which the body cannot produce. Trace minerals must come from food, beverages, and, also, from supplements. Read more >-

Many bodily processes are regulated by sleep - for example production of certain neurotransmitters and hormones. If the specific glands and cells do not receive the correct messages produced by sleeping, then these important substances may not be properly produced. Depression may result in the case of neurotransmitter deficiency. Fatigue or anxiety may result in the case of insufficient adrenal or thyroid hormones. Homeocan’s Aluminium Trace Minerals contains 176 µg of Aluminum (Aluminum gluconate) that is designed to be taken once a day in a teaspoon with water.

To better understand Oligotherapy, let’s start by defining the term “Oligo” means “small” or “not abundant” in Greek. We find this prefix in “trace elements”; these chemical elements are present in our body in minimal quantities. Bismuth salts can help eliminate bacteria that cause stomach problems such as diarrhea and stomach ulcers. Bismuth salts also work like an antacid assisting with the treatment of problems such as indigestion. People commonly use bismuth for travelers' diarrhea, a digestive tract infection that can lead to ulcers. It is also has been used for constipation, bleeding, and many other conditions. Each teaspoon of Homeocan’s Bismuth Trace Minerals contains 70 microgrammes of Bismuth (Bismuth gluconate). [LIQUID]+ Earn 12 Reward PointsOur Price: $12.39In Stock

Supplementing with Fluorine Trace Minerals from Homeocan is designed for adults 19 years an older to be taken once a day, in the morning in a small amount of water. Approximately 20% of any adult's bones are being remodelled at any point in time, and up to 7% of our bone mass is broken down and replaced every week. This helps to keep our bones strong and new. In addition to their outer structure, the long bones of the body also contain an inner core of bone marrow that produces blood and immune cells. A healthy diet, with sufficient protein intake, is one protective factor against bone loss. Dietary deficiencies of protein cause bone loss because the bone has to be broken down to free protein for the body's use. [LIQUID]+ Earn 12 Reward PointsOur Price: $12.39In Stock

Homeocan’s Iodine Trace Minerals is designed to help with the production of thyroid hormone. Iodine has also been used throughout the past for cleaning wounds and purifying drinking water. Some more recent research has shown iodine to be beneficial in the treatment of fibrocystic breast disease as well. Iodine deficiency causes insufficient thyroid hormone, which is a condition called "hypothyroidism". This occurs when the thyroid is unable to make sufficient thyroid hormone, and the pituitary gland sends greater and greater stimulatory signals (TSH), trying to boost production. This causes the thyroid to enlarge in an attempt to meet the needs of the body. [LIQUID]+ Earn 12 Reward PointsOur Price: $12.39In Stock

Homeocan’s Iron Trace Mineral is a natural ingredient essential for the proper functioning of the immune system. Iron uptake and storage is carefully regulated in the body. A protein called transferrin which binds iron absorbed from the duodenum,and carries it to the blood cells, is a major part of this regulation. Iron is stored in the body as ferritin. Supplementing with Iron Trace Mineral from Homeocan can help in the deficiency anemia that includes fatigue, pale face, dry skin and brittle nails, constipation, headaches, dizziness, loss of appetite and decreased immunity.

Manganese Copper, a natural complex useful for infectious states affecting the nose, throat and ears. Manganese is a trace mineral , which means that it is only needed in very small amounts by the body. It is used to speed up chemical reactions in the body that involve energy production, fat metabolism and protein metabolism. One of copper’s most important roles is as part antioxidants, such as superoxide dismutase (SOD). SOD protects the red blood cells from damage by free radicals. Free radicals are unstable molecules that in their bid to become more stable must bump into healthy cells and cause damage. [LIQUID]+ Earn 12 Reward PointsOur Price: $12.39In Stock
Trace Minerals - What Are They?
Trace minerals, including iron, copper, zinc, selenium, strontium, molybdenum, manganese, fluoride, iodine, chromium, cobalt, and vanadium, are essential nutrients like macrominerals (sodium, potassium, chloride, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, and sulphur), which the body cannot produce. Trace minerals must come from food, beverages, and, also, from supplements.
Because they are essential, trace minerals must be supplied regularly and adequately to prevent deficiency. While they are found in many dietary staples, trace minerals in most foods have diminished significantly in the last few decades, thanks to modern farming practices that focus primarily on production volume rather than nutritional density. The result has been a steady and dramatic decrease in the nutritional value of the foods over the last 50 + years. That’s why even those that adhere to the cleanest diets are most likely not getting an adequate quantity of healthy trace minerals regularly and may be at risk of deficiency. Fortunately, you can easily top up your levles with supplements.
Benefits of Trace Minerals
- Energy, Metabolic, & Mood Support
- Helps Maintain Mineral Balance in the Body
- Ideal Solution to Nutrient Depleted Soils & Foods
- Promotes Healthy Bones, Joints, & Teeth
Who Needs A Trace Mineral Supplement?
Trace minerals each offer very distinct health benefits. These include:
- Boron: activate vitamins and minerals necessary for healthy bone formation, and promote healthy brain function and immunity.
- Chromium: helps regulate glycemia and metabolism; promotes healthy weight management.
- Copper: involved in energy production, metabolism, and the production of hemoglobin (a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen).
- Iodine: is an integral part of thyroid hormones. Helps support metabolism, weight management, mental development, and brain function.
- Iron: is essential to form red blood cells, muscle growth, and energy production.
- Manganese: involved in carbohydrate, protein and cholesterol metabolism, cartilage, and bone formation, and promotes wound healing.
- Molybdenum: a cofactor to enzyme production. Plays a crucial role in breaking down sulphites in food and prevents its build-up in the body.
- Phosphorus: critical to our acid-base balance, energy production and hormone activation. Intimately involved in bone health.
- Selenium: potent antioxidant, immune function, reproduction, thyroid hormone production and thyroid function.
Trace Minerals Potency, Forms & Formats
Trace minerals are widely available in health food stores and through your favourite online supplement retailer in forms such as capsules and liquid. It goes without saying, of course, that the potency of each trace mineral in these supplements will vary according to the quantities required by the body. Always follow label instructions carefully.
Final Thoughts
Trace minerals are important cofactors in numerous enzymatic reactions and are essential for proper hormone and neurotransmitter function. Some of the most apparent signs of a deficiency are anemia, fatigue, or irregular heartbeat. Poor digestion and appetite, chronic fatigue, and brain fog may also be signs of low levels of these nutrient, such as iodine. For optimal efficacy, look for a supplement formulated for optimal absorbability.
