The differernce between Quinton and QuintEssential is PACKAGING, plain and simple. Quinton is packaged in glass ampoules, while Quintessential is packaged in travel-friendly sachet’s. Quinton Hypertonic is the same exact solution as Quintessential 3.3, while the Quinton Isotonic is the same solution as Quintessential 0.9.

Quinton Marine Plasma in glass ampoules is a pharmacologically certified sterile and apyrogenic solution The QUINTON PLASMA that goes into the sachets starts out qualifying as "Sterile & Apyrogenic" but this cannot be guaranteed over time because of the nature of the sachet packaging.

Glass is a very good container for marine plasma, and the stability is longer than sachets. The biggest difference between sachets and ampoules is the organoleptic test. After 3 years the taste of the product can change, a little but not too much, due to packaging material in sachets. In ampoules this does not occur. For glass ampoules the shelf life is 5 years; for sachets, shelf live is 3 years.

Isotonic is the "TONIC" and Hypertonic is the "NUTRIENT".

Quinton Isotonic is marine plasma diluted with natural spring water, and is identical to blood plasma in its mineral and trace-element concentration. It restores the health of the extracellular matrix, or BIOTERRAIN, within the body, and supports a healthy stress response, regular sleep cycles and a proper parasympathetic/sympathetic balance within the nervous system.

Quinton Hypertonic is a higher concentration of trace elements than that of our plasma; Hypertonic provides a higher concentration of minerals and trace elements required for the metabolic activity of the body, to compensate for what is missing from our food. It is used for rejuvenation, rehydration and mineralization of water, or whenever one engages in intense physical or mental activities. Hypertonic can be taken at any time, with or without food/water.

René Quinton, famous biologist and physiologist, extensively studied the therapeutic properties of seawater in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.  He discovered that the ocean contains the same proportions of the elements of the Periodic Table that supported evolution for more than two billion years.  Quinton pioneered a way to deliver this therapeutic “ocean”  to bring about homeostasis to the body’s own internal ocean (the internal bioterrain, the extracellular matrix bathing our cells).  

His knowledge of the importance of the extracellular matrix or “internal ocean”  was decades ahead of his time, and followed the work of Louis Pasteur who developed the germ theory of disease. The experiments of René Quinton (1866-1925) brought awareness that germs were not the isolated cause of dysfunction, but that an imbalanced biological terrain made one susceptible to dis-ease. 

Quinton’s marine plasma was so revered in healthcare applications, that it was included in the French VIDAL, the European equivalent of the Physicians Desk Reference. There were close to 70 clinics administering Quinton throughout Europe and Africa.  

Since 1897 Quinton Marine Plasma has been harvested from vortex plankton blooms where unique biological activity known as BIOCENOSIS occurs- a complex interaction among minerals and trace elements, organic nutrients, microbes, RNA, DNA, phytoplankton and zooplankton. The collected seawater undergoes a meticulous cold microfiltration process to remove impurities while preserving its natural composition. The seawater from this location exhibits biochemical and energetic properties that are passed on to the consumer.  

Drinking Quinton ensures proper electrolytic signaling while supporting proper epigenetic expression and homeostatic balance of the terrain.  What does this mean?  

Quinton Marine Plasma not only provides mineral and electrolyte balance, but enhances ALL cellular function, optimizes physiological processes, and modulates immune function. The wide array of perfectly balanced and bioavailable trace elements in Quinton ensures fast-acting replenishment - an immediate revitalizing and rehydrating effect. 

Often, supplements contain complexes of minerals that are difficult for the body to absorb, however, the elements and minerals found in Quinton marine plasma do not require further breakdown and are passively absorbed by the digestive tract.  Quinton also provides the exact trace element ratio for an organism to function perfectly as nature intended-  to aid the bioterrain and restore the quality of our internal fluids. 

Since Quinton Hypertonic contains small amounts of sodium, consider the Isotonic version if following a sodium-restricted diet for any reason. As always, consult your practitioner.
