Organic Germanium Powder

Pure Ge-132 Germanium Sesquioxide

Pure Ge-132 Germanium is a unique organo germanium compound, bis-carboxyethyl germanium sesquioxide sometimes called just germanium sesquioxide. It has unique molecular characteristics which make it non-toxic and permit it to be readily cleared in the urine as an intact molecule.*

NutriCology introduced Organic Germanium Powder as pure germanium into the United States in 1986. They recognize the importance of providing pure and tested Ge-132. To assure the quality and purity of our germanium products, They carefully analyze every lot. Testing procedures include identification by infrared spectroscopy, purity by acid group titration, and absence of inorganic germanium impurities by color limit test.

Organic vs. Inorganic Germanium:

It must be stressed that organic germanium is not to be confused with inorganic germanium, which is used as a semiconductor to conduct electricity efficiently and is highly toxic in even minute concentrations. By comparison, organic germanium has been thoroughly studied in extensive toxicological (acute, sub-acute, chronic, and reproductive) and pharmacological studies and has been found to be virtually non-toxic.

Organogermanium

Organogermanium is a derivative of germanium, a naturally occurring element that can be found in trace amounts in some organic compounds and foods such as apples, onions, garlic, tea leaves, ginger root, and whole grains and may play a role in photosynthetic, self-defense and metabolic processes.

Germanium has been used to treat health problems for centuries because it has been associated with strengthening the immune system and helping engage the body’s natural healing processes.
