Complete Balanced Mineral Formula Like every living cell on earth, the body relies heavily on minerals for proper function and composition of vital elements. Everything from the formation of body fluids, blood and bone to healthy nerve function and muscle tone is dependent on proper mineral intake. Minerals, like vitamins, function as coenzymes helping the body grow, heal and produce energy. They are necessary for full absorption and use of vitamins and other minerals.

It is important to keep a proper balance of minerals in the body. If one mineral gets out of balance, other mineral levels will be affected. If left uncorrected, mineral imbalance will lead to illness. Vitabase Ultra Minerals is designed to give your body the minerals it needs in a well-balanced formula.

Minerals are divided into two classes: macrominerals and trace minerals. Macrominerals are needed in larger amounts than trace minerals. Our formula includes the macrominerals calcium, magnesium and potassium. Important trace minerals in our supplement are iron, iodine, zinc, selenium, copper, manganese, chromium, molybdenum, vanadium and boron. Many of the minerals are chelated which means they have been bonded to a protein molecule. This helps transport them to the blood stream and enhances absorption at the cellular level.

Since fiber decreases the efficiency of mineral absorption, it is recommended that you take fiber supplements separately from Ultra Minerals. Label Information and Ingredients: Suggested Use: As a dietary supplement, adults take four (4) tablets daily with meals, or as directed by a health care professional.
