Humic acids are the organic components of soil, peats, brown coals, shales, and lake sediments, formed from decomposed plant material. They are complex, long-chain molecules, varying in molecular weight from 5,000 to 50,000 daltons. Humic substances are the most abundant source of non-living organic material found in nature.

The humic acid utilized in Humic-Monolaurin Complex undergoes a specialized proprietary extraction and purification process, and has an average size of about 50,000 Daltons. These large molecules are very flexible and have enhanced conformation and attachment capacities.* This humic acid can bind to cell surfaces with no adverse effects on the cell itself or on cell growth, and can stimulate normal, healthy resistance and immune response.*

Monolaurin is made from lauric acid, a saturated fatty acid that comprises approximately 50% of the fatty acid content of coconut oil. Lauric acid makes up 6% of the fatty acid content found in human breast milk, and 3% of that found in cow’s milk and goat’s milk. Monolaurin may help boost the immune system.* Humic-Monolaurin Complex also contains a standardized extract of olive tree leaves (Olea europa), with a minimum of 15% oleuropein, the bitter principle of olives, and Russian Choice Immune®, a lysate powder made from cell wall fragments of Lactobacillus rhamnosus. These lactobacillus cell wall fragments have shown significant immune system supporting properties.
