TAKING CONTROL OF YOUR HEALTH, YOU HAVE THE POWER
Our Soils and Food are Mineral Deficient
99% of the American people are deficient in minerals and a marked deficiency in any one of the more important minerals
actually results in disease. U.S. Senate Document #264, printed in 1936!
Obviously the situation has not gotten better as a more recent quote from Dr. Melchior Dikkers, Retired Professor of Biochemistry
at Loyola University states, "Malnutrition exists in the U.S. but is not caused by a lack of food, but a lack of nutrients
in the food due to mineral-poor soil, preservatives, fertilizers, and refining processes used in food preparation."
This sobering truth has lead to the fact that the average American is now suffering from over 14 mineral deficiencies
and "every sickness can be traced to a mineral deficiency." according to Dr. Linus Pauling, Ph.D. Winner of 2 Nobel
Prizes - Chemistry & Peace. Is this why were a nation of ill health? Too ill to feel well, too healthy to go to the doctor
but were constantly tired! It has become essential for our health to supplement our bodies with minerals to replace what
is missing.
Where can we turn for help? Pills, tablets, chelated or colloidal minerals were the choices in the past before mono-atomic
minerals became available. Did they work?
Pill and tablet supplements sales have skyrocketed from 1970 to the present at a time when diabetes, arthritis, fibromyalgia,
lupus and chronic illness have also escalated dramatically. A quote from Physicians Desk Reference Vitamins and minerals
in pill form are only 10% absorbed by the body helps us to understand why this method of supplementation is not being utilized
by the body. Pills and tablets typically have a coating of paraffin to protect from moisture and enhance shelf life. Since
our bodies are over 70% liquid or water, is it any wonder then that some of these supplements are coming through the digestive
system intact? According to Chiropractic Economics, March 1998, In Tacoma, Washington 250,000 pounds of undigested vitamin
and mineral pills are pulled out of the sewers every six weeks, some of them with brand names still readable.
Annette Hasalone, ND author of "Mono-Atomic Minerals" states "As a matter of point, complex minerals and
colloid supplements are more than likely causing more harm than good. Complex minerals are those such as Calcium Carbonate,
one calcium atom and three carbon atoms"
What other choices do I have? Minerals in colloidal forms are too large to be readily utilized by the cell or to cell
assimilate. These products have minerals that are in suspension, the mineral is suspended between the molecules of water
making it necessary to shake them up prior to useage.
What are mono-atomic minerals and how do they differ from all other mineral supplements on the market?
Angstrom is the smallest wavelength of light. It is used to describe the length of molecules and crystals. It has been
used as a measurement to illustrate how small the particles are in the mono-atomic form. Colloids and complex minerals are
all in particle size of approximately a micron. A strand of human hair cut across the circumference would be wide enough
to allow 50 microns to rest on it. By comparison an angstrom is 10,000 times smaller than a micron.
The nature of minerals in their most elemental state is that of atoms. Only in this state can they carry an electrical
charge, positive or negative, making it possible for the body and cells to utilize these elements.
When minerals do not have an electrical charge they are locked-up and unusable.
Dr. Henry Schroeder, M.D., Ph.D. Of Dartmouth College said, Your mineral needs are even more important than your vitamin
needs, since your body cannot make minerals.
Dr. Linus Pauling stated that, Without minerals, vitamins are useless.
Vitamins, hormones, amino acids, and enzymes are all activated by minerals, therefore, vitamins alone will not give you
enhanced health. Follow an amino acid down to its atomic structure and you find minerals, for example some amino acids are
sulfur based. Enzymes, such as super oxidase dismutase are supported by zinc, iron, copper, and manganese. Vitamins are the
supervisor of the construction crew. Amino Acids and Enzymes are the workers in the hard hats but Minerals are the materials
used for all construction. Calcium, Magnesium, Manganese and Phosphorus make up the foundation of our skeletal structure.
Your heart is a pump with Potassium fuel sitting in an electrically reactive solution with sodium which provides the charge
for your heart to beat.
