Fulvic acid is a natural health product that comes from humic substances produced by microorganisms in soil, peat, streams and lakes. It’s a product of decomposition with a host of benefits – another example of how nature provides through all of its cycles.

Unfortunately, our soil has been largely depleted of nutrients from the industrialization of agriculture. Monocropping, over farming and widespread use of chemical pesticides and fertilizers have stripped the soil of essential minerals and nutrients that we could otherwise receive through a balanced diet.

A super nutrient with anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and brain-boosting benefits, fulvic acid is loaded with over 70 trace minerals. Because of the diversity of nutrients and minerals found in fulvic acid, it won’t throw off the mineral ratio in your body, resulting in better balance and improved overall health.

As fulvic acid gains more attention in the world of holistic health, we wanted to break down some of the top benefits of this powerful natural health product.


7 BENEFITS OF FULVIC ACID:

    1. Boosts immunity – as we move into fall and begin spending more time inside, there’s increased risk of spreading colds and flus. The immune system is also impacted by chronic stress, and we’re living through undeniably difficult and uncertain times. Research has shown that fulvic acid may increase immune defences, improve disease resistance, and enhance antioxidant response, leading to better immune health.
    2. Helps with heavy metal detox – our diet, water supply, environment, and many of the products we use on a daily basis expose us to a wide range of toxins, and most of us are experiencing symptoms of toxic build-up to some degree. Fulvic acid can act as a binder, which helps in the elimination process of heavy metals from the body.
    3. Supports brain health and improves cognition – some studies have shown that fulvic acid can be helpful in battling or preventing Alzheimer’s disease and also shows promise in treating other neurodegenerative disorders. Fulvic acid is a natural product that offers neuroprotective effects, boosts cognition, and may be helpful in reducing symptoms of dementia.
    4. Replenishes gut flora – according to the Canadian Digestive Health Foundation, 20 million Canadians suffer from digestive disorders every year. A healthy gut is responsible for important communication with the brain and nervous system, and there are a myriad of both physical and mental health symptoms associated with digestive disorders. Fulvic acid helps to replenish gut flora that plays an important role in digestive health and overall wellbeing.
    5. Reduces inflammation and can help with pain – the anti-inflammatory effects of fulvic acid are likely some of the best known and most powerful qualities of this product. Fulvic acid has been shown to reduce the release of pro-inflammatory mediators in cells, which can also help with pain relief. Some studies have reported success with treating corneal ulcers and reducing pain associated with arthritis, ulcerative colon infection and hemorrhoids.
    6. Improves sleep and daytime energy – fulvic acid is bioavailable and helps with the absorption of minerals and nutrients in your body. Because fatigue and sleep can be linked to vitamin and mineral deficiencies, taking a fulvic acid supplement may help to improve the quality of your sleep and stabilize your energy throughout the day.
    7. Can fight pathogens – fulvic acid has been shown to boost antioxidants and fight pathogens, which can help with cleansing protocols for parasitic, fungal and bacterial infections that may be resistant to other treatments. As a powerful tool for fighting oxidative stress and supporting a healthy immune system, a fulvic acid supplement has many protective qualities that can protect your cells against free radicals and help to prevent disease.
