Magnesium (Mg): A main ingredient of the bones and teeth, which helps in the proper functioning of metabolism and activates many enzymes. Magnesium restores calmness in the nerve and muscle fiber and reduces pressure. It fights significantly psychic diseases, such as depression, as well as the breaking of kidney stones.
Selenium (Se): It has strong anti-acid action (similar to that of Vitamin E) and, therefore, fights free roots. Selenium protects the heart and functions preventively against the appearance of certain types of cancer. By keeping the elasticity and the durability of the tissues, it delays ageing. Lastly, it helps the procedure of reproduction, by having affecting men positively, while at the same time it strengthens the natural defense of the organism.
Sodium (Na): Together with potassium, it regulates the osmotic pressure in the cells. It is directly linked with the muscular contraction and the functioning of the muscular system in general. It secures the levels of water in the organism and keeps the balance of the ions in the blood.
Iodine (I): It activates the muscles and the cells of the nerve system. It participates in the formulation of the hormones of the thyroid. These hormones are considered as playing a very important role for the growth of infants and adults.
Fluorine (F): Together with calcium, it helps the health of the bones and the teeth. It supports the organism in its battle against contagious diseases and the quick renewal of the destroyed tissues. Fluorine also prevents osteoporosis.
Copper (Cu): It is necessary for the metabolism of the cells and the production of the connecting tissue. It helps the storing and the metabolism of iron in a type of hemoglobin, as well as the formulation of red cells. Copper also contributes in the good condition of bones, the creation of myelin and fighting against infections.
Iron (Fe): It is necessary for the composition of hemoglobin and some enzymes, which are responsible for the transportation of oxygen in the various organs and the muscles. It contributes in the growth of man, it strengthens the organism against diseases and it prevents fatigue.
Potassium (K): It controls the content of water of the cells. Potassium regulates the functioning of the nerve system, the muscular contractions and keeps the correct number of ions in the human body. It protects the heart against arrhythmias and, together with sodium, keeps the balance of water in the organism. Moreover, it is also necessary for the emission of insulin, the metabolism of the carbohydrates and the composition of proteins.
Bromine (Br): It has a catalytic action towards the good health of the skin, it relaxes the muscles and the nerve system.
