The quality of humic and fulvic acid can vary greatly per supplier. Many types of humic acid are sold. The effects can be different due to, for example, the composition and/or age of the humic acid. Our humic acid has the following positive properties:
Humic and Fulvic acid From BioAg Europe
Originated in the Cretaceous Period (± 40 million years old)
-
Soluble in water at a pH of 6 and low lime levels
-
Humic acid 52% and fulvic acid 12%
-
Due to its solubility, it is easily absorbed by the body
-
Very low dosage needed: 1 gram per 200 kg body weight
The quality of humic acid
The quality of humic acid can vary enormously. The definition of what constitutes humic acid can differ from supplier to supplier. Some suppliers consider humic acid and fulvic acid to be one and the same substance. A rule of thumb to determine the quality of humic acid is the following: The darker the colour, the more minerals bind to it. A dark colour indicates the richness of the humic acid.
We all ingests fulvic acid and humic acid through our food. However, the use of artificial fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides and the age of agricultural land, the humus layer is slowly but surely extracted from the soil. As a result we ingest less fulvic and humic acid through natural channels – our food.
Fulvic Acid from BioAg Europe
Different types of fulvic acid are offered and the name is used very lightly. Often a product is offered as fulvic acid that still has many elements bound to it. This can be judged by the taste and color. Pure, unbound fulvic acid is tasteless and has a golden yellow color. Our fulvic acid has the following properties:
-
Fulvic acid is detached from humus through a unique fermentation process
-
It binds to various (nutritional) elements that are ingested through food
-
Nutrient absorption is improved (for plants, animals, as well as humans)
-
Toxins and heavy metals are removed
The quality of fulvic acid
The exact structure and properties of humic acid and fulvic acid depend greatly on the soil from which it has been extracted, and the method of extraction. The quality of fulvic acid and humic acid can differ from supplier to supplier. There are a few rules of thumb to determine the quality of fulvic acid by. These are the following:
-
Pure fulvic acid should be a light yellow. This colour indicates the purity of the fulvic acid.
-
The production process should leave fulvic acid as unbound to any elements as possible, in order for it to be able to bind to nutrients. A good way to determine the purity of fulvic acid is by taste. It should be without flavor.
-
Fulvic acid is completely soluble. It should leave no sediments in water
