Colloidal minerals are bio-electrical minerals that come from food digested by prehistoric plants.
Colloidal mineral particles are so small, they remain suspended in water. They are acidic and carry a negative charge. The other two type of minerals often found in health food shelves are metallic and chelated. As you can tell, metallic and chelated minerals aren't as effective as colloidal minerals. For adults, mix one ounce per 100 pounds of body weight 1 to 2 times daily.
