Trace minerals include minerals like manganese, boron, chromium, and selenium.

These minerals all have essential functions in the body that play a role in skin health, including:
âś… Collagen synthesis
âś… Hormone metabolism
âś… Liver detoxification
âś… Blood sugar regulation
âś… Immune system modulation
âś… Preventing oxidative damage

The best way to get trace minerals in is to add them to your water! đź’§
ă…¤
Natural water sources (like springs and rivers) contain abundant minerals.
ă…¤
We were meant to hydrate with water that is naturally rich in minerals. (And we can't get all of our minerals from the food we eat!)
ă…¤
Yet for most of us, our water supply is treated and removed of many of these essential trace minerals.
ă…¤
Tap water also contains contaminants and toxins like pesticides that put a burden on your body’s elimination pathways, and can actually dehydrate you and your skin, since water is necessary for the metabolism of environmental toxins.
ă…¤
Even filtered water—while free of most contaminants and toxins—is void of essential minerals, so it’s important to add those minerals back into your water before you drink it!
