Potassium is one of seven inorganic, macro mineral nutrients needed in relatively high daily amounts. It is the third most prevalent element in the body after Calcium. Along with Chloride, Sodium, Magnesium and Calcium, Potassium is an essential electrolyte. These elements are called electrolytes because they carry an electrical charge when dissolved in body fluids. These elements are distributed throughout the body's fluids, including blood, lymph, and interstitial fluids, as well as intracellular fluids.Electrolytes help regulate nerve transmission and many cell membrane functions. Magnesium helps maintain the Potassium in the cells; but even more crucial is the proper Sodium to Potassium balance. Without Potassium, cell function will be impacted. Potassium works with Sodium to regulate blood pressure, transmit nerve impulses, and maintain cellular wall permeability. Along with Magnesium, it is essential for the proper functioning of the heart muscle. In this role, Potassium acts as the catalyst stimulating cellular contraction.The body should normally contain more Potassium than Sodium, but the standard American diet, with its reliance on fast foods, packaged convenience foods and refined salt, is too high in Sodium and Chloride and too low in Potassium. An imbalanced diet could be as simple as high protein and low vegetable and fruit intake. Research has found that a high Sodium diet with low Potassium intake tends to disrupt blood pressure. This can lead to a doctor's prescription of diuretics, which can cause even more Potassium loss, further aggravating the underlying problems. This mineral is essential in proper amounts for good health.Potassium has many functions but most important are: Regulating intracellular fluids Aids in the regulation of the body's water balance Facilitating nerve impulses Transmission of electrical signals between nerves and cells Contracting muscle tissue Balancing the acid/alkaline system Deficiency Causes: Diarrhea or vomiting Severe dehydration Excessive perspiration A diet low in fruits and vegetables Pharmaceuticals such as diuretics, cortisone, Aspirin and laxatives Deficiency Indicators: Slow reflexes Muscle weakness Water retention Dry skin Irregular heartbeat Food High in Potassium:Sweet potatoes, tomato paste/puree, beet greens, potatoes, beans, yogurt, clams, prune juice, carrot juice, and bananas. Eidon Liquid Minerals are All Natural, Highly Bioavailable and contain NO sugars, starch, artificial flavors, colors, preservatives or animal by-products. Vegan and Gluten-Free. Eidon uses the finest ingredients known to us in the formulation of our unique preparations. Out of respect for all life, we do not test - nor have we ever tested - our products on animals.  Obtaining the needed minerals via the food we eat is a chronic problem today. This is primarily due to our deficient soils and over processing and over cooking of our foods. Drinking ultra-purified water can also strip our body of these essential minerals. It is important to be aware of the fact that reverse osmosis and distilled water will actually act in reverse of what nature intended our water to do. Instead of being a mineral delivery system, the minerals are taken out of the water and this puts additional stress on the body tissue to compensate for the lack of minerals in the water. The minerals must then be taken from our healthy reserves in bone and muscle, thus leaving our system deficient and vulnerable. Replacement is essential!

Manganese is an essential element that most people know little about. Adequate tissue manganese is important for numerous physiological functions. Among those are: Maintaining optimal energy and strength levels Catalyzing the production of SOD (superoxide dismutase) Supports healthy bone and cartilage Proper growth and reproduction Bile production Proper functioning of the digestive tract Supports neurological health With the amount of processed foods consumed today, obtaining adequate manganese is a problem for many people. Also, the DRI (daily recommended intake) has not been established to any degree of accuracy. This adds to the major confusion over how much the average individual needs daily. Eidon’s Manganese provides one with the ability to easily adjust their intake to match their needs at 2mgs per suggested dose, which is the adequate intake recommended by the National Academy of Science. Food high in Manganese:Wild-caught fish and organic nuts, beans, whole grains and black tea.

Iron’s primary role in the body is as a component of numerous enzymes and other molecules absolutely essential for health and optimal well-being. The most important compounds are as follows: Hemoglobin is the iron containing molecule found in blood and is responsible for oxygen and carbon dioxide transport. This is obviously very important for the function and survival of all air breathing organisms. Myoglobin is the iron containing molecule found in muscle tissue which is responsible for providing extra oxygen to the muscle during intense physical exercise when the blood supply cannot provide the necessary amounts. Cytochromes are iron containing molecules necessary for the production of ATP, our energy currency. Higher levels of iron are needed during adolescence, intense physical activity and for anyone following a vegetarian or vegan dietary lifestyle. Most of our current dietary intake of iron is sourced from animals. Eidon Iron is not derived from animals. Supplementing with Eidon’s liquid Iron will help you get an adequate amount while not overburdening the body with excess. Eidon’s Iron has a recommended dose of 5mg per serving. This allows one to easily customize their dosing to whatever level they wish. Deficiency Indicators: Iron deficiency anemia (the most common nutritional deficiency in the world, according to the National Academy of Sciences) - indicators may include pale skin, fatigue, unexplained anxiety, frequent headaches, restless leg and hair loss Reduced physical work capacity Food high in Iron:All animal protein, fruits, green leafy vegetables, legumes, chocolate, quinoa, mushrooms, and pumpkin seeds.  NOTE: Eidon’s liquid Iron is derived from ferrous sulfate, a safe and stable source of iron. Separation may naturally occur in this solution and have varying degrees of color. Shake well before each use.

Analysis has shown that unrefined carbohydrates, especially grains, are rich in Chromium and other essential life supporting minerals. The refining of carbohydrates gives them a longer shelf life, however, Chromium and other essential minerals are removed. Consequently, the human body does not have the elements it needs to effectively deal with these powerful energy sources. Eating such refined food leads to mineral deficiencies and an inability to catalyze those cellular enzymes which require the removed mineral elements. Chromium works best if it is taken before meals to help support normal blood sugar. Even if sugar is not consumed, Chromium supplementation is important when eating refined or cooked foods. Chromium improves the uptake of glucose in the body's cells so that it can help to produce stable energy levels, thus potentially reversing the effects of excessive sugar cravings. All unburned or unused glucose will be stored as fat for future energy demands, thus the link between excess sugar and excess fat. Food High in Chromium:Brewer’s yeast, beef, liver, eggs, chicken, oysters, wheat germ, potatoes, black pepper, butter, and molasses.

Calcium, the most plentiful mineral found in the human body, ideally comprises 1.5 to 2% of an adult's total body weight. Every cell and organ in the body depends on Calcium for proper functioning. Teeth and bones contain the majority of the body's Calcium (about 99%), where it is stored for future uses. The body uses Calcium for: Digestion Blood clotting Nerve signal transmission (electrolyte) Acid/alkaline balancing of blood. We, as a society -- especially women over the age of 45 -- are routinely told by doctors, the government and the media to supplement with 1000-1500 mgs of Calcium daily. Women are led to believe that they are particularly prone to Calcium deficiency. (This is due to their presumed lower levels of estrogen which apparently restricts Calcium absorption.) Unfortunately, getting enough Calcium won't guarantee a lifetime of healthy bones. Interestingly, no other mammal on the planet consumes dairy or supplements with Calcium after they are weaned. As with most tissues, bones are constantly being reformed; broken down and rebuilt. Bone resorption is the action of the body when it accesses bone for Calcium and other mineral elements stored there. Bone absorption is the opposite, whereby minerals are deposited in bone for future use. Skeletal strength depends on many minerals, especially Silica, for bone collagen maintenance, but also includes Phosphorus, Magnesium, Boron, and Strontium. The concern is getting the correct balance of minerals for Calcium to be effective. Calcium management issues can be due to a lack of dietary Silica. In fact, in the first volume of "Silica: the Forgotten Nutrient," author Klaus Kaufmann challenges the sole use of Calcium supplementation by adults and shows its interdependency with Silica. When evaluating the amount of Calcium in Eidon’s supplement, measured in milligrams, it seems that it contains very little Calcium. Keep in mind that the amount of absorbable Calcium available in a traditional tablet or capsule is highly questionable. However, Eidon's ionic liquid Calcium is bioavailable and quickly absorbed. Deficiency Indicators:Muscle twitching and spasm, muscle cramps, weakness, fainting, reduced bone density, brittle nails, numbness, and fatigue. Food High in Calcium:Wheat grass, all leafy greens, sardines with bones, orange juice and dairy products.

Known and used by civilizations dating at least back to the time of the Greeks, Boron as borax has a long history. Boron is found naturally in seawater, fruits, and vegetables and is concentrated in some volcanic regions of the world. It was isolated and identified as an element in 1808. Its nutritional value has been debated since 1989. It was finally accepted as an essential nutrient element in 1990 after studies showed that it influenced the metabolism of several other nutrient elements including Calcium, Magnesium, and Phosphorus. We now believe there is also a significant synergistic relationship between Silica and Boron. Research has confirmed that Boron plays several metabolic roles in animal physiology. The list includes: Essential in the growth and maintenance of bone Helps with the absorption of Magnesium Reduces C-reactive protein Raises the level of enzymes such as superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase Improves brain electrical activity Essential for parathyroid function Food High in Boron:Chickpeas, almonds, beans, vegetables, bananas, walnuts, avocado, broccoli, prunes, oranges, red grapes, apples, raisins, pears, and legumes.
