@Xisca @jyb @Dan Wich @NickC @aguilaroja @achillea or anybody...
I've read a few posts indicating you may researched humic/fulvic acids and even lignite. Just looking for some direction on this topic; if you would so kind to lend some insight?
From what I understand these compounds can be beneficial to restore mineral balance and tighten junctions in the epithelial cells of the intestines. This sounds great but they contain some possibly toxic materials including cadmium, nickel, and iron. And lignite is from brown coal (a known carcinogen). These compounds are from organic material as opposed to inorganic heavy metals; does that make them safe?
I'm in search of balanced mineral supplement to correct my severe deficiencies. I can't seem to get enough from food because of my poor digestion. Also I have SIBO and severe permeable gut (autoimmune disease, chronic infections, etc). I already take magnesium and calcium but it's not enough apparently.
Here's one that I'm thinking of taking:
Or else the product called Restore4life which is lignite.
I've looked at other 'plant based' mineral supp's but they all contain rice (which I'm allergic to), silica, or some other terrible exipient.
I'd appreciate anything, anecdotal stories, links to research, etc!
edit; I do take Nettle tea w/ cinnamon daily and it helped some signs of mineral deficiencies but starting getting allergy symptoms so have to stop it for now.
