Fulvic acids may possess many of the same characteristics as humic acids, but possess less carbon but more oxygen than the corresponding humic substances with different solubilities. Fulvic Acids can form through the enzymatic and/or chemical oxidation of humic acids. Fulvic Acids are considerably more acidic than humic acids. That is why our products are acidic to keep fulvic acids in solution. This product can aid in digestion and assists in the preparation of nutrients for the absorption as well as other life sustaining activities. Although many years of diligent effort have been devoted to characterizing the complex nature of fulvic acids experimentally, the structures are still not understood. No predominant repeating monomer unit or molecule of low-molecular-weight has been identified and no two functional groups are chemically identical. However, these naturally occurring organic polyelectrolytes do participate in reactions with both organic and inorganic compounds that play a vital role in nutritional physiology of single cells that are beneficial to the positive aspects of growth and maturity.
Fulvic Acids have a positive influence on plant metabolic processes such as enhanced uptake of nutrients, positive effects on RNA and DNA, increased metabolism of proteins, increased activity of multiple enzymes, enhanced permeability of cell membranes, pH buffering capacity, chemical affinity for balance, participates in synthesis of new mineral activity, ability to scavenge heavy metals, and detoxify various pollutants to name a few actions. We eat these plants that have fulvic acids of considerable stability which can sustain life. We consume fulvic acid complexes every time we eat plant material. It is plants that have nurtured human life since the inception of our species and have been proven over time that they are safe.
The influences of fulvic acid substances on biological systems have been considered in terms of beneficial effects. These effects are explained on the basis of complex reactions such as chelating processes that enhance the availability of nutritionally important trace elements, the regeneration and the prolonged time that essential nutrient are available and the modification to reduce the damage of toxic compounds. There is still much to be discovered about fulvic acids and scientists are proceeding in this direction. At the present time, plant influences are being applied to animal functions and many of the actions for fulvic acids are beneficial in these cases too. More research is needed in this area to know all the aspects concerning health in humans. Although there is limited information from all the literature about fulvic acids, we believe that fulvic acids do create a natural balance for many of life processes.
