When comparing products, be sure to compare 'apples to
apples'. In the sometimes confusing world of laboratory analysis, the same
format for results is not standard. U.S. measurement may be used or Metric.
Results may be in grams, milligrams or micrograms. The results may be per
litre, per quart, per ounce, per gallon, parts per million (ppm) or parts per
billion (ppb). It is not their intent to confuse us although that is often the
result. Labs establish the format to publish results independently.
For example:
How much mercury is in Nutrition
Wells Liquid Colloidal Minerals? Answer: 0.01 micrograms
per litre. There are 33.8 ounces in a litre. In the recommended dose of one
ounce the calculation is 0.01 divided by 33.8 = 0.000295857 micrograms per
ounce. A microgram is 1/1,000,000th of a gram. For all intent and purposes,
only a trace. I hope this short explanation helps in some small way to
eliminate confusion. It may help you evaluate and compare mineral supplements
and come to a meaningful and relevant conclusion. Take a common sense approach and get past
the sales pitch: Dietary supplements are, by definition, supplemental to
what you eat. They are not a food substitute. Depending on your diet, you will
need less or more of any particular mineral. You are exclusively in control of
what you eat. You are not exclusively in control of the mineral content of what
you eat. This fact is why supplementation is recommended. Here is an online
resource I found on the web to simplify the conversion from micrograms to
miligrams or anything else.
