Selenium is known to reduce the risk of cancer, heart disease, muscular dystrophy, cirrhosis of the liver, cataracts, is a powerful antioxidant cell protector, and prevents the decay of cellular function. Copper deficiencies lead to anemia, nerve degeneration, skeletal defects and reproductive failure. Vanadium is an essential mineral involved in fat metabolism and protects the body against heart disease and cancer. Most nutritional supplements contain metallic minerals. Metallic mineral supplements can accumulate in the body and cause serious disorders such as heart problems, kidney stones and calcification of the joints.
Chelated minerals are also metallic minerals that have been wrapped with an amino acid or sugar.
The human body is NOT designed to utilize these metallic minerals, yet they are the most readily available. Plants absorb minerals through their root systems and by a process of photosynthesis turn them into the ultra-fine and highly absorbable colloidal form. Colloidal minerals from plants help the body to maintain a perfect bio-electrical balance, essential for good health and longevity. All nutritional programs should start with a foundation of colloidal minerals and all-natural vitamins, amino acids and essential fatty acids. All the medical research and billions of dollars spent to find cures has not altered the advance of killer diseases.
