Takeaways: Barton’s mission was born out of necessity—he built what he needed for his own health. Most supplements are never tested batch-by-batch. His are. Absorption is everything: If your body doesn’t absorb it, it doesn’t help. Particle size plays a major role in how nutrients are utilized. Minerals affect everything from sleep to hormones to immune function.
Deficiencies in specific minerals can cause wide-ranging symptoms. Barton avoids colloidal minerals, favoring stable, highly bioavailable alternatives. All products are manufactured in the U.S.—with a global eye for quality, not shortcuts. There’s a sweet spot between effectiveness and shelf stability. Barton sees supplement innovation as a lifelong mission.
