Every One!
Every biological function of the human body relies on
adequate levels of minerals and trace elements. Without
adequate levels of ALL minerals, the body’s ability to
function properly is impeded and ultimately disrupted.
Minerals are required but not limited to assisting the
following functions. |

Can We Get Sufficient Minerals from Our Daily Food Diet?
“Most physicians and many persons live with the mistaken
notion that the average diet somehow magically supplies
all the nutrients essential for a health life.
“When a plant grows it draws the available minerals from
the soil reached by its roots. If the soil contains only
a few minerals the plant will only draw a few minerals.
If the soil lacks minerals, the plant is stunted because
a plant cannot make minerals. Dr. Gary Price Todd says,
‘Sick soil causes sick plants, which causes sick
animals, and ultimately sick human beings.'
“There is a harmony between vitamins and minerals and
even though vitamins are nearly ineffective without
minerals, they are both necessary. Minerals are quite
different from vitamins in their structure and the work
they do, but the two enjoy an excellent working
relationship. |

“According to Rodale’s Complete Book of Minerals
and Health,
‘minerals create a healthy environment in which
the body, using vitamins, proteins,
carbohydrates and fats, can grow, function and
heal itself.'
What is a complete spectrum of minerals? I
believe a mineral composition or a mineral
solution cannot be considered a
‘complete spectrum of minerals’
unless it contains at least seventy minerals.
This large number of minerals has to include
many of the
‘rare earth’
minerals or there would not be a total of
seventy.
“Where can we get the minerals we need if they
are not available in our food supply? |

“Most of the more popular mineral formulations available
today contain no more than 10-15 minerals because they
are derived from clay, ground up rock and soil. This
type of mineral is known as a metallic, hydrophobic
mineral! It will not interact with water because it is
not water-soluble.
The few metallic minerals that come directly from the
earth are hard to digest or assimilate. Many nutritional
experts, doctors and food chemists believe no more than
5% or maybe up to 8% of metallic minerals are actually
assimilated by the human body."
