Colloidal Minerals – Why take them?

The Benefits of Colloidal Minerals

Have you ever wondered if the mineral supplementation we take in pill form is even absorbed.

The vast majority of minerals in tablet, capsule or powder form are simply very small rocks.

Often they are sourced directly from rocks, clay’s or salts and ground down to a small powder.

With minerals derived from rocks being in an inorganic form, as such carry a positive charge.

That’s why pills and tablets are coated in proteins or amino acids and then called chelated.

The theory behind this is it is hoped that by including these specific additives, absorption rates will increase.

Having a natural negative charge (she is not called Earth for nothing), plant-derived colloidal minerals are naturally attracted to the walls of your intestine, which are positively charged.

The potential of absorption is what makes plant derived colloidal minerals the most efficient way to absorb minerals.

What are colloidal minerals?

The word colloid comes from a Greek word meaning glue.

It means an attractive link between the psychic nature and the physiological organism.

From the atom: to the molecule: to the colloid.

If you looked at an atom under a microscope, it would be a thousand times larger than a colloid.

Trace minerals in concentrated colloidal suspension are very small particles suspended in a liquid base, making them easily absorbed by the body.

Look at the size of the cell

  • A red blood cell is 7 microns.
  • A colloidal mineral particle is 0.01 micron or less.
  • That is 1/7000th the size of a red blood cell.

Your own little universe!

Your blood stream is the carrier of life-supporting minerals, vitamins, nutrients (liquid, solid and gaseous), oxygen, and a whole host of other things both physical and etheric.

It is in fact, a little universe functioning as a solar system, doing its thing, right inside you!

To see how vitally important minerals are to you, let’s use a simple analogy and see minerals as little planets coursing through the universes life stream, the solar system.

Within our solar system there are many planets that affect the way the Earths environment acts.

The moon for example!

Imagine if the moon in your lifetime collided with another galactic body, or experienced injury, or started dissolving (which it is) into the cosmos.

It may not have a huge effect around our solar system, but closer to home the effect would be noticeable and huge, if not catastrophic.

Earth’s tides would be affected, the seasons would be affected, in fact there would be a fair amount of dis-ease being felt on Planet Earth within all the kingdoms.

Now imagine that within your bloodstream, this moon was called calcium.

Now if something has gone within your world and calcium was deficient within your bloodstream, the effect it has upon your body has been called all sorts of dis-eases.

Just to name a few of these well known dis-eases

eczemadelusionsdepressiontooth decay

irritabilitymuscle crampsnervousnessperiodontal disease

The list goes on… and that’s just for calcium.

That doesn’t include the other…

  • 6 macronutrient essential mineral elements
  • or the 14 micronutrient essential elements
  • or the 5 elements (whose nature has not been scientifically established)
  • or the other 30 elements (whose metabolic role has not been found)
  • or their related dis-eases that can be felt throughout the body if there is deficiency.

From the Earth, to the plant, to you

If you are as most of the humans say – serious about your health and you regularly perspire and exercise; if you’re recovering from ill health or injury; or you just wish to give your body the materials it needs to regenerate (to feel rejuvenated), get into the plant derived Colloidal Mineral Concentrates!

Plants absorb earth-bound minerals through a process of photo-synthesis converting these elements into a carbon based colloidal organic molecule, which carries a negative charge.

During the earth’s prehistoric era, the topsoil was incredibly rich with humic and fulvic acids.

So, plants were able to take up higher concentrations of minerals.

Those plants helped make up a rich layer of the earth’s crust – the humic shale.

By leaching humic shale with low temperature water, it becomes possible to reactivate fulvic acid fractions, and disperse the colloidal minerals in the resulting liquid.

The need for mineral supplementation has never been as necessary as it is today, in our artificially fertilized, mineral-deficient toxic soils, in which we grow our mass-produced foods.

Understand that if the body is mineral deficient the body’s ability to absorb vitamins is deficient.

The body cannot absorb vitamins without minerals. Minerals are first!

If it’s not in the soil, it’s not in the food you eat.

Poor absorption leads to poor performance

Unfortunately most digestive systems are not in good shape, so these chelated tablets are only 30%-50% absorbed at best.

Biological availability of inorganic mineral supplements may reduce to 3 – 5 % in individuals over the age of 40.

Most tablets pass right through us and if you happen to be passing by a radiologist, you can x-ray these tablets and watch them pass through the intestines and right out of your system.

If you buy any minerals, plant-derived trace minerals in colloidal suspension must definitely be placed high on the list, and if they’re not on your list, put them on your list.
