Keep
the Doctor AWAY!
Standard
orthodox medical doctors used to believe that diet & supplements
were not important or at least were unrelated to health. New research
now shows conclusively that nutrient deficiencies and dependencies
do exist when people try to maintain their health on three meals a
day using the "four food groups."
Enough research has been
done in the last few decades to prove these major points…
- We cannot get all
the vitamins & minerals we need for metabolic competence from
the standard three meals a day.
- When the body has
been assaulted by stressors, drugs, pollutants, injury or sickness,
nutrients are lost more rapidly than normal and if they are not
replaced, the victim’s ability to withstand stressors or fight
off disease is reduced.
- We use so many
labor-saving devices that we need fewer calories. As food intake
is reduced, it is nearly impossible to get all the nutrients we
need without taking supplements.
- Pollutants in the
air, food & water put a stress on all of us. As a result,
we require more vitamins & minerals to support the enzyme
systems which aid in discharging these unwanted toxins.
- Those sweet, "empty
calorie" foods we eat rob the body of the nutrients required
for digestion & absorption. In addition, food sensitivities
& yeast infections damage intestinal lining cells so that
even when we do eat nutrient dense food, absorption is limited.
"Pica" (unusual
cravings) suggests that the body is not getting something in the regular
diet. People tend to consume too much of certain things (fat, sugar,
calories) in order to obtain missing nutrients. Even if your diet
were able to supply you with an adequate dose of the major minerals,
you would still be lacking in the trace minerals found in the Majestic
Earth products. The importance of some of these trace elements,
as well as the effects of a deficiency in them, are as shown in the
following chart.

These colloidal trace
minerals, as well as others found in the MAJESTIC EARTH products
are up to 98% absorbable by the body, and as you can see, play a very
important role in maintaining a healthy balance within our systems. |
