Why do we need Minerals
The
Fundamental Role of Minerals
Most
of us think of minerals as being necessary for strong bones
and teeth, but minerals do much more. In addition to providing
us with shape and support for our skeleton, minerals are
the “spark of life.” Minerals are essential in the diet
and each plays unique and often multi-factorial roles as
they act at all levels of the body - cells, tissues, organs,
and the whole organism. All of our body processes depend
upon the action of minerals to activate the enzymes which
perform bodily functions we take for granted.
Without
proper mineral ratios we could not set into motion the properties
and functions of enzymes, vitamins or amino acids. These
elemental components are responsible for every activity
in every cell of our bodies. Cellular functions require
a proper chain of events that start with minerals. Without
the proper mineral we could not twitch an eyelid or form
a thought.
The Key Ingredients of Life
Each and every mineral that exists in the earth also exists
in us and in all living things. Quantum physics shares the
philosophy that we are really one with all things. Just
as the earth must maintain its balance to function optimally,
our bodies need balance, too. When given the right materials
in the right form (from nature) the body can do amazing
things to promote its own health. The earth naturally gives
us minerals via water and food. Today, with current farming
practices that deplete soil of necessary minerals and water
supplies that have been polluted and poisoned, our population
has become mineral malnourished. Eidon has taken the lead
to provide you with minerals the way nature intended. We
use a proprietary process that transforms pure mineral crystals
into a fully hydrated, 100% bioavailable liquid ionic supplement
and gives you purity that you can see, taste and feel.
The Magic of Minerals
The only thing that will catalyze or activate an enzyme
is a mineral. While very difficult to measure within each
cell (in fact this capability still eludes our present scientific
measurement technology) it can be assumed that most cells
require a full complement of all minerals to function correctly.
We do know that some organs require higher concentrations
of certain minerals.
Mineral Deficiencies
The lack of specific minerals can precipitate both acute
and chronic health problems. Sudden heart attacks occurring
during physical activity are often the result of mineral
depletion of immediate cellular supplies of potassium and
magnesium. Always remember that your physical health is
dependant on your cellular health. Everything begins and
ends on a cellular level.
Some
chronic and acute health problems associated with lack of
a certain mineral or minerals are:
1.
Osteoporosis
2. Heart disease
3. Cancer
4. Arthritis
5. Goiter
6. Gastrointestinal disorders
7. Periodontal disease
8. Anemia
In fact, we believe that most human ailments can be described
as chronic nutrient deficiency symptoms. Some diseases are
contracted via direct exposure to bacteria, virus, amoebas
or other pathogens; but an optimally functioning immune
system can defend us from these pathogenic invaders. It
requires a proper mineral balance to keep our immune system
strong and healthy. Deficiencies of zinc, selenium, silica,
and sulfur, which occur as a result of poor diet or excess
stress, can put our health at risk.
The Bottom Line
In a nutshell, you can have all the air, water, protein,
carbohydrates, fats, and vitamins you want, but you won’t
be a fully functioning organism without a complete balance
of minerals. Without minerals all the other components of
the body will be unable to function properly.
Eidon
prides itself on bringing information and education to the
public. We believe that being proactive in our own health
is the key to a long and healthy life.
