Each harvest of Dead Sea Salts is organic in that it is an earth product, not a lab product. Therefore, as with vitamin and antioxidant levels in natural vegetables and fruits, the mineral content of Dead Sea Salts will vary somewhat from harvest to harvest.

The vast majority of vitamins and minerals available today are supplied by a few extremely large and powerful chemical companies. These companies dig up or produce the nutrients that go into the countless various brands of products that you see on shelves today. The nutrients that these few companies produce under the labeling of USP (United States Pharmacopoeia) and you will see this on most of the containers of the vitamins and minerals you buy today.

There are up to 23 different minerals in Soap Lake water. The most abundantly occurring are calcium, magnesium, potassium, silicon, and sodium.

MIXABLES uses minerals that have been chelated or "attached" to amino acids. Chelated minerals are more readily absorbed by the canine digestive tract compared with their non-chelated counterparts. The chelation process is expensive and is not required by AAFCO (the American Association of Feed Control Officials); however, Variety Pet Foods has selected them because of their superior nutritional benefits.

Water-soluble minerals are unique from other mineral supplements because they utilize a new proprietary scientific technology that transforms insoluble minerals (metals) into angstrom-sized water-soluble particles. An angstrom is 1/10,000th of a micron, which is a millionth of a meter. Previously, only plants, with help from the sun and organisms in the soil, had the ability to reduce minerals (metals) to angstrom-sized particles.

The vitamins you get from foods can ONLY be utilized by the body if minerals are present, in the correct ratios, as nature intended. Without minerals, vitamins are useless. It's like pouring flour into a pan and expecting it to turn into a cake...it simply will not happen unless you provide the other ingredients that cause the necessary metabolic responses.

Plants are supplied with dissolved mineral complexes from soil microorganisms that can and do use colloidal minerals. Through photosynthesis, plants manufacture sugars and exude some of the mucopolysaccharides at the root level.. Microorganisms relish polysaccharides and rapidly increase in numbers. In return, the microorganisms supply soluble, organo-complexed minerals that plants, animals and humans need for healthy and vital growth.

Ionization of minerals is a process unique to Hormeta Skin Care. When a mineral is ionized it has a molecule 1000 times smaller than normal for optimum penetration and absorbtion, as well as making the minerals bio-available, which means the skin is able to recognize and utilize these minerals.
