Why
You Need Minerals
You are a mineral body
Every
part of you is made from minerals - your bones, cell structure,
lymph liquid, arteries, organs, tissue, muscle, hair, and
so on. You cannot live without minerals. Your body does
not produce minerals.
Where
do you get your minerals? You get them from vegetables and
fruits and good supplements. Since only 10% of the people
eat enough fruits and vegetable, the rest of you are deficient
in minerals.
If
we eat enough vegetables and fruits, why do we have to take
a mineral supplement?
Long
time ago when the soil was rich in minerals, vegetable and
fruits were jammed pack with minerals. Fruits and vegetables
were not picked early, frozen, waxed, radiated, or stored
in argon gas. Those who ate these vegetables and fruits
obtained an adequate supply of minerals and seldom has a
deficiency.
Today
the opposite is true. You and I cannot get enough minerals
from eating fruits and vegetables. Now we eat more cooked
vegetables, more vegetables in packages, fruits and vegetables
that are waxed, and vegetables from other countries not
processed properly.
Today,
we need to supplement our eating habits with a live mineral
liquid to make up for the lack of minerals in the good food
and junk food we eat.
Here
is a partial list of illnesses and their related mineral
deficiencies and below each mineral is the food that is
highest in that mineral.
