About Using Fulvic Acid
We eat living plant matter, such as herbs, fruits and vegetables, to improve our overall general health and ease or heal disorders. Microorganic matter known as humus, which results from the breakdown of organic materials in dark brown soil, also may be of value in helping us better process the nutrients we eat. One such organic element found in humus is fulvic acid.

What is Fulvic Acid?
-
Fulvic acid is part of what are called humic substances, which make up a large portion of dark brown soil and microorganic matter, or humus. When animal and plant life decompose, their structure is broken down by fungi into humus. Fulvic acid, humic acid (more concentrated than fulvic acid) and humin are byproducts of this process.
Without humic substances in the soil, plants do not absorb the nutrients they need. Fulvic acid, a powerful natural electrolyte, helps plants absorb essential minerals and nutrients.
Also Known as Shilajit

Fulvic acid has been used for centuries by ayurvedic or holistic practitioners in India, who believe fulvic acid, a principal ingredient in Shilajit (also known as Silajit or Shaljit) rejuvenates and promotes health.

One Reason for Mineral Deficiency
