Cobalt* Cobalt
is an essential mineral, although the body only needs a small amount.
Cobalt is
stored in red blood cells with smaller amounts in the kidney, liver, pancreas
and spleen. Research indicates that
cobalt helps with the repair of the myelin
sheath, increases the effectiveness of glucose transport from the blood into
body cells, and increases the assimilation of iron and the building of red blood
cells.
Cobalt is an important agent of Vitamin B-12; it increases the body’s
ability to absorb it.
Cobalt stimulates many enzymes of the body and normalizes
the performance of other body cells. Because of its low absorption rate and high
excretion rate,
cobalt toxicity is not common, but an excess can lead to
enlargement of the thyroid gland.* Restore Mineral Waters Navigation Bar *This statement has not been evaluated by the FDA. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. Nutrition 2000
