Why does size matter? Larger mineral sizes require more digestive energy to break them do to a point where your body can use them. If you don't have to waste energy on digestion, you can spend that energy on healing. Angstrom Minerals do not waste energy on digestion because they are cell ready. They can enter the cell as soon as they touch it.

Just a few other terms explained:
Angstrom is a measurement to illustrate how small the particles are in the mono-atomic form. Mono=One and Atomic=atom, therefore meaning one atom form. Colloids (like colloidal silver) and complex minerals are all in particle size of approximately a micron. One human hair is about 50 microns wide. An angstrom is 10,000 times smaller than a micron.

In minerals there are several sizes of minerals. A long time ago, man discovered that they eat food to get minerals. So they ate plain minerals to try to add to their health. Minerals were usually in tablets that looked like little rocks. These mineral were had to digest and many even passed right through the digestive tract undisolved. Why? Because they were too big to be used by the human body. They could not stay in the digestive tract long enough to be digested. Then man discovered that adding amino acids with the minerals help them be absorbed into the body. These are called chelated minerals. The word is said (kee late ed). Still not as good as the body needed, but much better than plain rock minerals.

Man Discovered that crushing the minerals and placing them in capsules increased the surface area exposed to the stomach acid and the body could absorb more of the mineral. Mineral assimilation was improving but still the maximum absorption was around 5% to 7%. Then came colloidal minerals, the next big craze. Some people are still stuck there, unknowing that life has passed them on. Smaller than chelated minerals, colloidal minerals showed real hope for improving health. Colloidal silver leads the way in the colloidal market.

So what is a colloid. It simply means one material sandwiched in-between another. So chocolate chip cookies are colloidal cookies. I have to dispel a myth here. NO CHOCOLATE IS NOT GOOD FOR YOU! NO MATTER HOW MANY ANTI_OXIDANTS THEY CLAIM- The negative affects far out weigh the antioxidants you get from it. Colloidal can be small particles or larger particles.

Today we have Angstrom Minerals. They are so small they can enter a cell with out digestion. Angstrom silver is smaller than colloidal silver. Angstrom silver can pass in and out of the cell with ease. Colloidal silver is in particle size that gets stuck in the cell and over use can turn you blue. You can make colloidal silver at home. It is about 30 ppm max. You cannot make angstrom silver at home. It is about 300 ppm. So you see it is about 10 X stronger than colloidal. Why can't you make it at home? Because it is a special process that is trademarked and is not given out how to do it to the public.
