Important minerals we need daily
are not in our foods anymore. It is extremely important to use a mineral
supplement containing truly-chelated minerals. This means that the minerals
are tied to amino acids, so that your body will recognize them and use
them to their full extent. Minerals work along with vitamins to make
many of your biological processes work up to a million times more efficiently.
Minerals
missing in modern foods:
Our soils are depleted of organic matter and trace minerals.
Every time a crop is harvested, organic matter and trace minerals are
removed from the soil. Synthetic fertilizers do little or nothing
to replenish these depleting materials. Most artificial fertilizers
have no organic matter, humus, organic acids, microbes
or sugars. They also rarely contain any aluminum, boron, calcium, carbon,
cobalt, copper, iodine, krypton, manganese, mercury, molybdenum, nickel,
silicon, tin, titanium, zinc or zirconium. Reference:

The
data available on the subject of soil depletion and animal deterioration
are so voluminous that it would require a volume to present
them adequately. When we realize the quantities of many of
the minerals which must enter into the composition of the bodies
of human beings and other animals, we appreciate the difficulty
of providing in pasture and agriculture soils a concentration of these
minerals sufficient to supply the needs for plant growth and
food production. Reference: Nutrition and
