TME® contains the highest quality organic processed, plant derived colloidal minerals straight from the original source: a prehistoric rain forest in Utah. This incredible naturally-formed colloidal mineral treasure house was preserved because of a unique set of circumstances. As the earth went through enormous physical changes over the millennia, silt, sand and volcanic lava flows compressed a portion of this plant matter and sealed it into a time capsule. The result is a unique deposit of high density natural organic processed (plant derived) colloidal minerals which has been supplementing the American diet since 1926!
