America's # 1 Epidemic

There are lot of products out there that make the bowel lax and dependent on that product. Rather we should look for a product that strengthens the bowel system and teaches it to regulate itself.

Also we need to supplement with a natural multivitamin mineral product so that we can repay the debts that we have created during the years when we were eating foods that were missing the nutrients that we needed.

But don't just get any product. Get your money's worth. Here are a few guidelines to make sure that you are going to accomplish what you desire.

Number one, make sure that the minerals are organic plant-source minerals. What is commonly sold as a mineral product is rock-source or colloidal products. Our bodies just can't assimilate those properly. Do you eat rocks? Does our body need rocks? We all know we can't live on rocks. Those minerals do not have enzymes attached to them to allow our bodies to process that mineral into our physiology and use it. So the minerals which we purchase must have a plant-source (organic minerals). The best source of minerals known to man comes from a plant called Island Plant Moss.

How about vitamins? Again, they must be 'live' and usable by the body. Plant-source is the way to go. Now there are a lot of supplements out there but only a few of them are plant-source. Most of them are derived from inorganic sources, petroleum bi-products, they mix various chemicals together in the Laboratory and say that they are all natural wonderful vitamins, but that is not necessarily so. We need to make sure that our supplements are 100% plant source.

Do you realize that in nature there are many components that go with the vitamins to help our body use them? For example vitamin C is commonly known as ascorbic acid. Did you know that vitamin C as found in nature has seven different components and only one of those is ascorbic acid?

Now we can manufacture ascorbic acid in a Laboratory, but we can't manufacture the others that are vital for our bodies to use ascorbic acid as it is meant to. So we want the plant source because it has all of those vital co-factors that are needed for health.
