Metabolics produces a range of ionic minerals and activated vitamins, which are in a liquid form, hence more easily absorbed and easier to take, ensuring greater compliance. The products are very pure containing only the active ingredient and water. All products are available in 100mL, 250mL and 500mL bottles.

Please use the links below to read about the benefits of ionic minerals and activated vitamins.

Ionic minerals are metallic ions that have completely dissociated from their naturally occurring compounds, just as should occur after ingestion by the reaction of hydrochloric acid in the stomach. All metallic mineral ions are absorbed through the gastro intestinal wall by diffusion or through special channels called ionophores. Thus, a mineral in ionic form,makes an optimal substrate for effective mineral absorption.

Activated vitamins are in a form that is readily available to be utilised by the body as a substrate in biochemical reactions immediately following ingestion. This means that they do not have to be broken down and manufactured by the body into a usable form as is the case with the inactive vitamins. This is beneficial if there is a problem with the process of digestion or if some enzymatic functions are lacking in some way. Activated vitamins are important co-factors in many body processes. In the case of Pyridoxal-5-Phosphate (P-5-P or activated B6) it is involved in more than 80% of reactions in the neurochemistry of the brain. The inactive form of P-5-P is Pyridoxine Hydrochloride.
