Essential New Line From Trace Minerals

Trace minerals are an oft-overlooked key to a major part of some of our health puzzles. Mother nature provides important trace minerals in the soils used to grow the plants that humans eat, which we then synthesize and utilize.

As well as providing the foundational building blocks of bone and tissue, minerals also power the energy systems and enzyme systems of the body.

Perhaps the best summary concerning the lack of trace minerals in our soils is by Dr. William A. Albrecht, Chairman of the Department of Soils at the University of Missouri, who said:

“A declining soil fertility, due to a lack of organic material, major elements, and trace minerals, is responsible for poor crops and in turn for pathological conditions in animals fed deficient foods from such soils, and that mankind is no exception.”

Until American soils are re-mineralized, Horizon Health Shop is proud to announce our partnership with Trace Minerals Research products, the #1 choice for mineral replacement today. You can trust Trace Mineral Research for high-quality re-mineralization and electrolyte-replacement products due to metabolic needs, or perspiration from work, sports and the effects of summer heat.

Here are a few more quotes that expose the extent and depth of this problem:

In 1977, Dr. Walter Mertz of the U.S. Department of Agriculture told Congress, “In the future, we will not be able to rely anymore on our premise that the consumption of a varied balanced diet will provide all the essential trace elements, because such a diet will be very difficult to obtain for millions of people.”

Dr. Linus Pauling the two-time Nobel Prize winner states that: “You can trace every sickness, every disease, and every ailment to a mineral deficiency.”

The Doctor’s Vitamin and Mineral Encyclopedia states that, “Mineral insufficiency and trace elements insufficiency are more likely to occur than are vitamin insufficiency states. Because of differing geologic conditions, minerals and trace elements may be scarce in the soils of certain regions and rich in those of other regions. Thus, you can live in some areas, eat a perfectly ‘balanced’ diet and still develop mineral deficiencies or trace element deficiencies that can only be averted through dietary change or supplementation.”

Dr. Charles Northen, MD, reports that, “In the absence of minerals, vitamins have no function. Lacking vitamins, the system can make use of the minerals, but lacking minerals vitamins are useless.”

Gaylord Hauser, from his book, Diet Does It, concurs by stating, “Minerals are certainly as important to us as vitamins, yet minerals are overlooked, neglected and their value underestimated.”

Suffice it to say that many of the “organic foods available today are still depleted in minerals.

If your patients are fatigued and unhealthy in general, mineral or essential electrolyte deficiency could be a big cause more so than vitamin deficiency.

Trace Mineral Research offers a large variety of mineral products for general support with its flagship Concentraceā„¢, a blend of 72 trace elements that can be added to drinks; Power Pak, great-tasting rehydration powders in 9 flavors; and a complete line of ActivJoint formulas.
