Vitamins A and C, and the mineral zinc

aid4health@bigpond.net.au

We used to say`an apple a day keeps the doctor away`, but nutritional experts say that today we would have to eat at least TEN apples to get the same nutritional value that was in one apple 100 years ago. Our food today may look good, but it lacks the flavour and nutritional value it once had, because it contains only a fraction of the necessary minerals.
There are over 90 Nutrients that the body needs to function optimally. These include at least 60 minerals, 16 vitamins, 12 amino acids and 3 essential fatty acids. Ideally we would get all of these nutrients from our diet alone. Unfortunately today`s lifestyle and foods do not allow us to do this, even if we eat a very well balanced organic diet.
Why are we not getting these nutrients from our diet? Due to modern farming techniques the precious farming areas around the world are being overworked and are seriously depleted of minerals. As a result, foods grown on these depleted soils are also empty of minerals and other essential nutrients. The introduction of synthetic fertilisers, which generally contain only three minerals, Phosphorous, Nitrogen and Potassium, whilst beautifully promoting plant growth, do nothing to address the depletion of the 60 minerals required for human health.
A summary of the United States Senate Document #264 by the US Congress back in 1936, states that Laboratory tests prove U.S. farm and range soils are depleted of minerals and that the grains, fruits, vegetables, nuts, eggs and milk are not what they were a few generations ago. The document adds that people who eat these foods develop mineral deficiency diseases which can only be corrected by including mineral supplements in their diet, it also states that approximately 99% of the U.S. population are deficient in minerals All the medical research and billions of dollars spent to find cures, have not halted the advance of killer diseases, and yet Dr Linus Pauling, winner of two Nobel Prizes stated decades ago that: `You can trace every sickness, every disease and every ailment to a mineral deficiency.` Without these minerals it is impossible for the regeneration process in the cell to occur. None of the functions of the body can occur (properly) without ALL of the minerals are trace minerals present.
THE MISSING LINK IN TODAY`S NUTRITION
Our bodies function electrically, and organic colloidal minerals are the essential sparks of life that generate and maintain the body`s electrical production.
MINERALS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR
* Tens of thousands of bio-chemical functions
* Enzyme function
* All metal and Physical processes
* Hormonal secretion of our endocrine glands
* Biochemical activity of vitamins
* Neutralising of acid and toxic conditions within the body
* The balance of internal and external pressures of the body cells
* Playing a critical role in the synthesis of DNA
* Regeneration of cells.
All bodily processes are dependent on the action of minerals, with the proper efficiency of each mineral being enhanced by balanced amounts of the others.
When our bodies cannot continuously produce healthy cells due to lack of certain minerals, we prematurely age, develop an endless variety of diseases and die`before our time`
What can we do to live longer and healthier?
Before rushing out to buy some mineral tablets, heed some advice. Minerals come in several different forms, an not all are easily assimilated by the body. The most commonly available are simple inorganic metallic minerals, which have only 3 - 12% absorption - not great value for your dollar! Research has developed a process that `wrap` the mineral in an amino acid, whereby these hard to absorb minerals can be made more bioavailable, up to 20 - 45%.
But remember the body needs 60 minerals for optimal health and the best way to get all of them in a natural form is through a colloidal liquid mineral drink. Originating from plants, which absorb metallic minerals through their roots and convert them into colloidal minerals that are hydrophilic or soluble, these minerals contain live, energised nutrients, which immediately go to work in cell throughout the body and are almost 100% absorbable.

hey.

i'm a chemist. there's a lot of truth in what aid4health says.

even Pauling's quote about all disease being traced to a mineral deficiency, though extreme, can at least loosely be tied to many diseases. for example, lets say you have a genetic predisposition toward a particular form of cancer. and lets say you increase your risk by unhealthy lifestyle. the body has levels of defense against this disease progressing (utilizing enzymes that rely on minerals), and while i am hesitant to go to the extreme of saying all disease is tied to mineral deficiency alone, your risk is certainly compounded by the lack of proper nutrients.

while there are thresholds past which even full, adequate nutrition and supplements alone will not save you (breathe enough carbon monoxide, inhale enough coal dust, allergic reactions, etc.), a primary role of proper nutrition is not weight loss (which is where most people focus) but in running the body smoothly, efficiently... and that includes the physiological process of disease prevention and repair.

to anyone wishing to further answer this question, be warned.

in less than 12 hours i've received two spam pm's from .... hoping and wishing i'll gladly visit his/her/it's site.

well, i guess i had to add someone to my iggy bin at some point. aid4health is #1 in the ignore file.

Health nut...I mean spammed one of my threads on the Beauty & Skin Care forum. But super moderator Curlyben deleted his/her post and gave them a warning.

Vitamins C and D both promote healing.
