Mineral 40 are Mica Rock Minerals that are widely acclaimed for their special qualities and purest forms. Sizes available : Please inquire. Raw Material Used : Mica Rock Minerals with special qualities Special Features : MINERAL 40 Reduces Agricultural Chemicals in Water : Industrial agriculture is among the leading causes of water pollution in the United States today. According to the Environmental Working Group (EWG), 215, 664, 000 people in 46 states have drinking water contaminated by 97 agricultural contaminants, including pesticides and fertilizer ingredients. It is estimated that 61% of those people have water containing one or more agricultural contaminants present at levels above health-based limits recommended in government advisories. MINERAL 40 products reduce 79 herbicides, fungicides and insecticides in water. Some of these pesticides include the following : Herbicides : Mineral 40 reduces some of the most widely used herbicides in the U.S., including Atrazine, a potent endocrine disruptor that has been linked various health risks such as cardiovascular system problems and reproductive difficulties and cancer; EPTC, linked to increased risk of colon and prostate cacer; 2, 4-D, an ingredient of Agent Orange, linked to cancer, cell damage, hormonal interference and reproductive problems; Simazine, linked to blood problems and Prometron, linked to carcinogenicity, reproductive and developmental toxicity, neurotoxicity and acute toxicity. Fungicides : Including Chlorothalinol, the third most used fungicide in the U.S. that is a likely carcinogen. According to the USDA, honey bees that were fed Chlorothalinol were three times more likely to become infected with the parasite Nosema. Chlorothalinol may be a contributing factor in Colony Collapse Disorder; 2-Phenylphenol, although human health effects are virtually unknown, 2-Phenylphenol is considered moderately toxic after acute oral doses in animal studies. Chronic dosing in animals resulted in systemic effects such as weight loss and anemia and Dichloran linked to nose, eye, skin and throat irritation, coughing, chest discomfort, nausea and vomiting and bladder irritation. Insecticides : Mineral 40 reduces some of the most widely used insecticides in the U.S., including DDT, an organochlorine pesticide banned since the 1970's, DDT is still being found in the environment, DDT is considered an endocrine disruptor and has been linked to liver, nervous and reproductive system damage; DDE, found in the environment as a breakdown of DDT; Chlorodane, although banned by the EPA in 1988 over concerns for cancer risk, Chlorodane is one of the most common pesticides found in the environment today. Chlorodane has been linked to gastrointestinal distress and neurological symptoms, such as tremors and convulsions; Dieldrin, although banned by the USDA in 1978, Dieldrin is one of the most common pesticides found in the environment today. Dieldrin is considered a carcinogen that has been linked to Parkinson's, breast cancer, immune, reproductive, and nervous system damage and Diazinon, an organophosphorus pesticide that has been linked to various nervous system problems such as headaches, dizziness, anxiety, trouble with vision. Other problems include nausea, vomiting, cramps and diarrhea, slow pulse, difficulty breathing and passing out. Applications : See above Price : Please inquire Technical specification : Please request Industries where this product is used : Agriculture—Creating healthier and more resilient Pigs, horses, fish, chickens, etc.-- Clean Water industry for cleaning up toxic bodies of water, even heavy metals and all kinds of algae and bacteria. For Humans for strengthening the physiology and immune system and increasing resistance to disease. Microorganisms Mineral 40 Reduces Microorganisms in Water : Typically, water suppliers add disinfectants, such as chlorine, to drinking water in an effort to help control disease-causing microbes. However, disinfection may be difficult as certain microbes are exceedingly resistant to conventional disinfection practices. Microorganisms may contaminate water through human and animal fecal waste. Mineral 40 removes and reduces bacteria, viruses and parasites. Bacteria : Mineral 40 products remove 100% of Escherichia coli (E.Coli), a pathogen that can cause diarrhea, urinary tract infections, respiratory illness and pneumonia; Enterobacter cloacae, a pathogen that can cause lower respiratory, urinary tract and skin infections; Proteus mirablis, a pathogen commonly responsible for urinary and septic infections; Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a pathogen that can cause ear and eye infections and skin rashes in mild cases and blood infections, pneumonia and even death in severe cases; and reduce 99.95% ofKlebsiella terrigena, a pathogen considered a factor in melamine poisoning. Viruses : Mineral 40 products reduce 99.85% of Poliovirus I, an enterovirus that causes Poliomyelitis, a viral disease that can affect nerves and can lead to partial or full paralysis; and reduce 99.85% of Rotavirus, a virus that causes more than half a million deaths each year in children 5 years and younger and is the leading cause of severe diarrhea in babies and young children worldwide. Parasites : Mineral 40 products reduce 99% of Giardia Lamblia, a protozoan parasite that lives and reproduces in the intestine of infected humans or animals, causing the diarrheal disease known as giardiasis; and reduce 97.1% of Cryptosporidium ()a protozoan parasite that causes the diarrheal disease known as cryptosporidiosis. Both Giardia and Cyrpto are very tolerant to chlorine, as their outer shell allows them to survive outside the body for long time periods. Giardia and are generally spread through water.
