Fulvic Acid in Ionex Gold
Are you giving your body the vital nutrients it needs? We often assume that switching diets and eating more fruits and vegetables gives us all the necessary nutrients. While eating more fruits and vegetables helps us with a more balanced diet, the foods we consume still lack vital nutrients.
Farming methods can affect the quality of our crops, leaving our food lacking nutrients and possibly creating toxic build-up.
The fulvic acid in Ionex Gold is an effective compound that works at the cellular level and supports the lack of nutrient absorption, detoxification from unhealthy elements, and much more! Below you will find everything you need to know about Ionex Gold and its incredible ingredients.
Ingredients and Serving Size Recommendation
There are only three ingredients in Gold; Fulvic Acid, Humic Acid, and Purified Water.
No additional ingredients added
Mined in the southern United States
Third-party tested and verified*
Extracted from highly compressed peat with purified water.
Serving Size:
The recommended serving size is 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) per 120 lbs (54.43 kg) of body weight. Each container contains 48 servings.
If this is your first time taking Fulvic Acid, we recommend a smaller amount and building up to your recommended serving size. Mix it in with 8-12 oz. of your favorite drink, and you will be ready to go!
Fulvic Acid and Humic Acid
Although Fulvic Acid and Humic Acid may have similar names, they’re very different elements.
Fulvic Acid is deemed the most valuable treasure in holistic health. It is a natural compound from rich soil formed over time by the decomposition of leaves and other plant materials.
Humic Acid is also a by-product of humification (decomposed leaves and other plant materials). Sometimes extracted from sub-bituminous coal, Humic Acid is high in carbon. It also contains oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen, and phosphorus.
Ionex Gold has a natural ratio of Fulvic Acid to Humic Acid, which is 9 parts to 1 part because Humic Acid is naturally present in organically occurring Fulvic Acid. Fulvic acid has a very small molecular structure that is absorbed much more efficiently than humic acid, which has a larger molecular structure. However, although Humic Acid is difficult to assimilate, its high carbon content helps break down salts that build up on cell membranes so that Fulvic Acid, which is easy to assimilate, can transport nutrients into and flush toxins out of cells.

Benefits of Fulvic Acid in Ionex Gold
Fulvic Acid allows Ionex Gold to work with your body at a cellular level to revert damaged cells and promote healthy cell growth, all while increasing the bioavailability of nutrients in your body. Additional benefits of Fulvic Acid include:
Supports free radical defense, heavy metal detoxification, DNA repair, and fights against inflammation, infection, and diseases*
Fulvic Acid has antioxidant properties that counter the effects of free radicals and helps the body detoxify from toxins we acquire through chemicals in agriculture, heavy metals, radioactive waste, and more [1]. Additionally, research has shown that Fulvic Acid can assist in preventing chronic inflammatory diseases like diabetes [2].
Repair of damaged hair, skin, and nails*
Fulvic Acid is a component that contains many different vitamins, minerals, fats, electrolytes, nucleic acids, antioxidants, flavonoids, and other powerful nutrients for healthier hair, skin, and nails. Research has also found that Fulvic Acid supplementation improved symptoms associated with Eczema [3].
Blood alkalinity*
Maintaining proper pH is essential to remaining healthy and protecting ourselves from diseases and illnesses. The alkalizing minerals in Fulvic Acid supplements assist the body in oxygen absorption, which supports the reduction of microbes and accelerates nutrients to cells. A balanced pH level helps the body reduce inflammation [4].
Supports Digestive health, enzyme activity, cell hydration, nutrient absorption, and a healthy metabolism*
Fulvic Acid contains nutrients such as electrolytes (73 macro and trace minerals), antioxidants, prebiotics, enzymes, essential amino acids, and natural detoxifying compounds that nourish the digestive tract and allow for the formation of good bacteria [5]. By supporting the growth of good gut bacteria, fulvic Acid can also help enhance nutrient absorption and lessen gastrointestinal irritation.
Brain function and cognitive health*
Research has proved that Fulvic Acid interferes with the buildup of proteins that develop brain diseases such as Alzheimer’s [6]. Additionally, the antioxidants and nutraceutical properties support the protection of cognitive impairment.
Boosts energy levels, supports balanced immunity, and overall health and longevity*
Fulvic Acid can also assist the body’s energetic level. Increased detoxification, lower levels of inflammation, reduced free radical damage, and higher intakes of electrolytes and key nutrients, all benefits of Fulvic Acid consumption, work together to improve the body’s energy levels.

Ionex Gold and AO Scan
Although supplements generally provide a recommended consumption, our bodies do not always need the recommended supplementation dosage. The Supplement Library in your AO Scan will help you identify the supplements or therapies that resonate with you daily.
How does it work, you ask? It will suggest a specific supplement depending on the imbalances it detects you have.
Not only does this help you support your body with the correct supplements for your specific needs, but it also helps you to not overuse them by consuming them when your body doesn’t need them—Making this one of the most cost-beneficial tools you can have when using supplements.
Gold is one of the supplements already listed in your Supplements and Therapies library. In this video, Loran Swensen, Solex’s President, walks you through how to upload new supplements to your library and find those already uploaded in the scan.
