Germanium is an essential micromineral because it is known to enhance the immune system for stimulating the production of natural killer cells like lymphokines, interferons, macrophages, and T-suppressor cells. The holy waters in Lourdes, known world-wide for their healing properties, contain high amounts of germanium. You can find germanium in broccoli, celery, garlic, shitake mushrooms, milk, onions, rhubarb, sauerkraut, tomato juice, all chlorophyll rich foods, and it can also be found in herbs such as aloe vera, comfrey, ginseng, and suma root.

There are a number of minerals, both macro and micro in size, that we need on a daily basis in order for our bodies to function at their best. Many of the fruits and vegetables that we buy from grocery stores are deficient in essential minerals. Most of the time, that is because they are being grown in soil that is bankrupt in the basic nutrients of life.

That is why we have our excellent line of Angstrom Minerals. Our minerals are plant-derived and suspended in reverse osmosis (RO) water so that your essential mineral is not compromised by preservatives or additives.

We refer to our minerals as Angstrom because the particles in our mineral supplements are smaller compared to over-the-counter and retail drugstore colloidal minerals. Since the particles are smaller, they are able to pass through the cell membranes with more ease thus allowing your body to absorb the optimal amount of our Angstrom Minerals.
