Prevention is better than cure.
Much ill-health is caused by poor digestion which can lead to allergy and toxicity. Several factors may contribute to a dysfunctional digestion. One major factor is unmanaged stress and environmental pollutants and toxins (including pharmaceutical prescription drugs) may also be involved. In addition people also unknowingly expose themselves to various harmful ingredients in the products which they use for personal care.
All these toxins can accumulate in our body tissues and come to do long-term damage. They can generate destructive free-radical molecules and atoms which are capable of initiating the changes responsible for causing cancer and many other degenerative diseases. Many of these substances can also cause hormonal imbalances. So in these circumstance, there is every possibility that, one day, the immune system reaches a point where it can no longer cope with all this toxicity. This is the point at which we start feeling unwell.
There is a further factor to ill-health - malnutrition. We may consume many calories while actually obtaining few of the nutrients which we need. In particular these are: <
1) Optimum amounts of clean water
2) Carbohydrates
3) Good quality protein providing all the essential amino acids.
4) Omega 3 and Omega 6 fats.
In general we need those nutrients that the body cannot make itself. It is essential to have in our diet a portion of raw food - preferably organic - providing digestive enzymes and fibre.
We need vitamins, antioxidants and other phyto-nutrients and, finally, we need the most neglected factor of all - minerals.
Minerals are essential for every bodily process. They can be broadly classified into two groups:
a) The macro-minerals - those minerals which we require by the gram or at least in hundreds of milligrams.
b) The trace minerals - of which we require micrograms.
The macro-minerals are calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium and phosphorus. These are either used as building materials - as for example in building bone (calcium, phosphorus and magnesium) - or for their electrical properties (calcium, potassium, sodium and magnesium) and muscle function.
The macro-minerals are also used to maintain the acid/alkaline balance in tissue fluids determining pH. The pH scale is a logarithmic scale and this means that a small change of 0.1% may be significant enough to make you feel rather unwell.
The trace minerals include elements such as zinc, iron, copper, selenium, manganese, boron, molybdenum, chromium, iodine, vanadium, germanium and many others.
Many trace minerals are not found in ordinary mineral and vitamin supplements.
People often take supplements with just one mineral such as iron. Some minerals can be antagonistic to each other with can in fact cause further imbalance. One mineral can displace another from its enzyme site and block enzyme activity altogether. This is why it is important to find a balanced formula for supplementary nutrition.
.
While chelated minerals do have a role to play, in order to maintain the full spectrum, we need to turn to humic shale deposits. These are derived from organic plant material laid down over many millenia. The minerals can be extracted from them using pure water. The ease with which they can be assimilated into our tissues - their bioavailability - may be enhanced by the addition of organic electrolytes also known as fulvic acids. These themselves are the organic ions used by plants to take minerals from the soil and may be the key to mineral absorption.
From these ingredients can be formulated a mixture of plant-derived organic minerals in solution. The minerals in this solution can be encapsulated in microscopic liposome spheres which may further enhance the transport of minerals across the intestinal mucosa.
Mineral formulations like this are not generally available from health food stores.
The real value of such supplements lies in trace minerals which are not found at all in ordinary mineral supplements. In the search for good results we have only actually found them when using organic trace minerals in solution. Such supplements have had all traces of potentially harmful ingredients such as cadmium, arsenic, mercury and aluminium removed.
A disorder know as Multiple Chemical Sensitivity has now been identified and this can lead to eczema, asthma and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Such (and related) complaints are nowadays almost considered normal.
Though psychological factors may well be involved there is evidence that some behavioural problems are caused by nutritional disorders.
The elderly have supplementation needs as well. They tend to eat less; they often absorb less and may well be on medication which tends to further inhibit nutrient utilisation.
Maximol Solutions has been formulated by Neways International and is probably the world's most complete liquid nutritional supplement. It contains 67 essential and trace minerals; 17 essential vitamins; 21 amino acids; and 3 enzymes. It is in micro-colloidal ionised "liquid suspension" form, from which our bodies can assimilate 98% of the available nutrition. |
