Much of our "collective" disease can be traced to the following...
Crisis Ignored:
Verbatim Unabridged extracts from the 74th Congress 2nd Session:
"Our physical well-being is more directly dependent upon the minerals we take into our systems than upon calories or vitamins, or upon the precise proportions of starch, protein or carbohydrates we consume."
"Do you know that most of us today are suffering from certain dangerous diet deficiencies which cannot be remedied until depleted soils from which our food comes are brought into proper mineral balance?"
"The alarming fact is that foods (fruits, vegetables and grains) now being raised on millions of acres of land that no longer contain enough of certain minerals are starving us - no matter how much of them we eat. No man of today can eat enough fruits and vegetables to supply his system with the minerals he requires for perfect health because his stomach isn't big enough to hold them."
"The truth is that our foods vary enormously in value, and some of them aren't worth eating as food...Our physical well-being is more directly dependent upon the minerals we take into our systems than upon calories or vitamins or upon the precise proportions of starch, protein or carbohydrates we consume."
"This talk about minerals is novel and quite startling. In fact, a realization of the importance of minerals in food is so new that the text books on nutritional dietetics contain very little about it. Nevertheless, it is something that concerns all of us, and the further we delve into it the more startling it becomes."
"You'd think, wouldn't you, that a carrot is a carrot - that one is about as good as another as far as nourishment is concerned? But it isn't; one carrot may look and taste like another and yet be lacking in the particular mineral element which our system requires and which carrots are supposed to contain."
"Laboratory tests prove that the fruits, the vegetables, the grains, the eggs, and even the milk and the meats of today are not what they were a few generations ago (which doubtless explains why our forefathers thrived on a selection of foods that would starve us!)"
"No man today can eat enough fruits and vegetables to supply his stomach with the mineral salts he requires for perfect health, because his stomach isn't big enough to hold them! And we are turning into big stomachs."
"No longer does a balanced and fully nourishing diet consist merely of so many calories or certain vitamins or fixed proportion of starches, proteins and carbohydrates. We know that our diets must contain in addition something like a score of minerals salts."
"It is bad news to learn from our leading authorities that 99% of the American people are deficient in these minerals, and that a marked deficiency in any one of the more important minerals actually results in disease. Any upset of the balance, any considerable lack or one or another element, however microscopic the body requirement may be, and we sicken, suffer, shorten our lives."
"We know that vitamins are complex chemical substances which are indispensable to nutrition, and that each of them is of importance for normal function of some special structure in the body. Disorder and disease result from any vitamin deficiency. It is not commonly realized, however, that vitamins control the body's appropriation of minerals, and in the absence of minerals they have no function to perform. Lacking vitamins, the system can make some use of minerals, but lacking minerals, vitamins are useless."
"Certainly our physical well-being is more directly dependent upon the minerals we take into our systems than upon calories or vitamins or upon the precise proportions of starch, protein of carbohydrates we consume."
"This discovery is one of the latest and most important contributions of science to the problem of human health."
Senate DocumenVt No. 264, 1936.
Keep in mind that this was in 1936 and to this day, nothing has been done about soil mineral depletion.
Here's what one of the brightest minds of the last centruy had to say about what to mineral depletion leads to.
Dr Linus Pauling, two times Nobel Laureate, said “one could trace every disease and every ailment to a mineral deficiency.”
Keep in mind that the policy makers are fed by the hands of large multinational corporations who make trillions of dollars from a medical disease treatment paradigm.
What can you do? Grow your own food or know the producer of your food, especially now that these same policy makers are ensuring that the organic guidlines are becomming more and more watered down. Make sure that whoever grows your produce that it is in mineral rich soil with macro and trace minerals present in abundance.
If this is not possible for you, then I highly suggest you make your own soil grown wheatgrass/barley grass (for juicing and chewing) and generate your own sprout crops. In each, utilize ocean water (available on the internet) as a natural fertilizer that is teaming with minerals which will end up in the plant and then into you. Dr. Maynard Murray had great success with this method of mineral fertilization and many people are reaping the benefits. The crops end up disease resistant as well as the people who eat them. Yields are higher and the people who utilize this food are more creative and productive. See the connection?
I also suggest using fulvic/humic acids in your soil as well, which is instrumental in assisting the plant in converting inorganic minerals to organic (angstrom sized) minerals that will eventually end up in you. These are the only form that will promote health in your body. The preceeding is one powerful way to take back your power and ensure you are getting a mineral rich diet.
Add an algae like e3live and your really rockin!
