remineralization
ConcenTrace Trace Mineral Drops
This is the industry benchmark, sourced from Utah's Great Salt Lake using a proprietary solar evaporation process that removes 99% of sodium while concentrating 72+ trace minerals. It is one of the few mineral supplements to be GRAS-affirmed and NSF certified, ensuring it is free from contaminants often found in sea-sourced products.
Quality & Materials
Contains a full spectrum of 72+ naturally occurring ionic trace minerals. The magnesium content is particularly high (250mg per serving), which is the primary mineral stripped during RO filtration.
Evidence & Testing
Brand Transparency
The company provides clear labeling of all 72 minerals and holds a Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) status, which requires significant safety data disclosure.
Value Assessment
At roughly $0.25 per serving for a massive dose of minerals, it is the most cost-effective way to remineralize distilled or RO water.
Why Not Alternatives?
Unlike cheap remineralization filter cartridges that use low-solubility calcite or coralline calcium, ConcenTrace provides ionic, liquid minerals that are immediately bioavailable. It beats competitors on price-per-serving while maintaining higher certification standards (NSF).
