While organically grown food is safer in terms of pesticides, herbicides and other carcinogenic chemicals, it is not economically feasible for the organic farmer to add the other 58 minerals back into the soil before each crop is planted. Consuming organically grown food reduces our chances of getting cancer, but not because it is more nutritious than chemically grown crops. It still does not contain all essential minerals. The human embryo takes 90 days to fully develop - during the balance of the pregnancy the baby just grows in size and weight. It was also established in the 1950's that sufficient amounts of selenium , one of the 60 essential minerals, in animal diets virtually eliminates the risk of diseases such as muscular dystrophy, cancer, heart disease, cirrhosis of the liver, and cataracts.
Selenium helps eliminate toxic, heavy metals from vital organs in the human body.
The livestock industry knows the importance of mineral supplementation. Cattle and pigs don't have health insurance, Medicare or Medicaid. Because the human body was originally created from the dust of the earth, it needs all 60 minerals, formerly in the soil, for the proper composition of blood, bone and maintenance of healthy nerve function. Minerals are vital for the creation of various enzymes found in our bodies. The human body requires these various enzymes for proper utilization of vitamins.
