Where Have All the Minerals Gone?

Minerals play an essential role in the healthy functioning of your body. Unfortunately, USDA studies show a 25-80% decline in the mineral content of the foods we eat, due to over-farming, chemical fertilizers, and the increased consumption of processed foods.

Without important minerals, your health could be suffering!

Minerals have a variety of functions. Here's a quick list of some important minerals and what they do in your body:

• Magnesium helps convert blood sugar to energy, and is the 'anti-stress' mineral.
• Calcium is the most abundant mineral in your body; it initiates DNA synthesis, maintains bone health and strong teeth.
  
• Potassium maintains acid/alkaline balance in your blood.
  
• Zinc promotes proper nerve, immune and digestive health and boosts immunity.
  
• Phosphorous helps maintain heart regularity, provides energy and aids in metabolism of fats and starches.
  

Minerals can even help you sleep better at night!
