Years of Minerals are missing...

"Every sickness, every disease, every ailment can be traced to a mineral deficiency."
Dr. Linus Pauling, two-time Nobel Prize winner

Today's foods have less minerals then the amount we would have received 100 years ago.  Less minerals in our food means a lack of nutrients which leads to mineral deficiency causing a poor quality of health.  These minerals, coming from the earth, relied on the richness of soil to perform at their peak.  Soil gets depleted of minerals and need to be fertilized in order to put the nutrients back into the earth.  100 years ago when the soil became depleted, there was only a small amount of nutrients put back into the soil when it was fertilized.  Today, the same type of fertilizer is still used on many soils where food is grown and we are eating.  At this time there are about 80 different types of elements that are lacking in many soils that are needed to give food its full nutrients. 

Minerals play a major role in the cells, bones and blood in the human body.  Health problems can develop due to prolonged deficiency of minerals.  As an example, minerals are alkaline and many minerals reduce stress, having a calming, relaxed reaction as the body metabolizes it.  Manganese, Copper, Magnesium and Potassium are a few minerals that ease tension.  Cancer, Arthritis, Depression and Hypertension can all benefit from a healthier diet with a variety of vitamins and minerals.  Getting the best quality of foods on the table will be helpful in providing the best health.  A good place to start would be with top quality fertilizer which creates a better soil.  Which takes us back to the beginning...years of minerals are missing.
