Viridian Organic Mineral Complex (90 Capsules)

A daily mineral routine is one of the unglamorous bits of a sensible supplement stack. Vitamins get most of the marketing attention, but it's the minerals (magnesium, zinc, iodine, selenium, the trace ones) that quietly do a huge amount of the work behind energy, immunity, hormones and recovery.

Viridian's Organic Mineral Complex is the daily mineral baseline a lot of our customers use to cover that ground without thinking about it.

What it is

A 90-capsule bottle of organic, whole-food mineral complex from Viridian. A blend of mineral-rich organic plant sources (seaweeds, sprouts, plant powders) that deliver a daily background of macro and trace minerals in a food-based format. Soil Association organic. Suitable for vegetarians and vegans. No fillers.

Why minerals matter

Several of the minerals that appear naturally in a complex like this have GB-authorised health claims tied directly to them:

• Magnesium contributes to reduction of tiredness and fatigue, normal muscle function and normal energy-yielding metabolism
• Zinc contributes to normal immune function and protection of cells from oxidative stress
• Iodine contributes to normal thyroid function and normal energy-yielding metabolism
• Selenium contributes to normal thyroid function and protection of cells from oxidative stress

The exact NRV percentages vary by product, so check the label for which claims apply at the recommended dose.

Whole-food rather than isolated

A mineral complex like this is different from taking a single high-dose magnesium or zinc product. The doses per mineral are typically smaller, the source is plant-food rather than isolated salt, and the format suits people who'd rather take their daily minerals as a food-based supplement than as a stack of separate compounds.

It's the equivalent of eating a proper plate of greens, seeds and seaweed every day, in a capsule format you can actually keep up with.

Who it suits

• People who want a daily mineral baseline without buying five separate products
• Plant-based eaters who don't always hit the full mineral range from food
• Anyone over 40 building a sensible, low-fuss daily routine
• Long-term Viridian users who already trust the brand's clean-label approach
• Vegetarians and vegans

If you have a thyroid condition or are on prescription medication, check with your GP before adding a mineral complex containing iodine to your routine.

Why Viridian

Viridian make their mineral complex from organic plant sources, no fillers, no synthetic carriers, in their UK facility. The label tells you what's in the bottle and the brand has built its name on getting this right for more than 20 years.

We stock the Viridian range in full at LSC because it's the brand customers come in asking for by name.

How to take it

One capsule daily with food, or as directed by a practitioner. A 90-capsule bottle gives you three months at one a day. Take it every morning with breakfast and it becomes a routine you don't need to think about.

What pairs with it

A daily mineral complex pairs sensibly with a Vitamin D3 (especially October to March in the UK), a B-complex, and a quality omega oil. D3 contributes to normal immune function and maintenance of normal bones, and B12 contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism.
