Fulvic acid

Post by treeman »

Hi all. Recently been reading about the great chelating and other properties of Fulvic acid. I belive its extracted from humic acid which they get from brown coal. Anyone know of a supplier who sells the stuff without kelp added?

Thanks.
Mike

Yes Fulvic is a concentrated form of humic acid, but Humic acid is very concentrated in itself.
I am not 100% sure but in all the study I have done I find no advantage to using fulvic over humic.
I can recomend a very high quality pure humic acid in Life force instant humus.

This company also sells Fulvic acid but it is only in large quantities for the farming industry.
It's too bad your in such a hurry cause the stories I could tell you, Bushels and baskets of stories, hole crates full of stories. But if you can spare a moment I will tell you one story.
