Plant derived colloidal minerals
Many people are aware today that they need nutrient supplementation to augment their daily diets to assure their intake of the 90 essential nutrients but are frustrated in the results they get from the huge variety of multiple vitamin/mineral programs available.
Vitamins are pretty much the same, there are fat-soluble and water soluble vitamins and they are about equally available in just about any multiple tablet; minerals, however, are a different story - there are three basic types of minerals:
1. METALLIC MINERALS
Metallic minerals include egg shell, oyster shell, calcium carbonate, lime stone, dolomite, mineral salt, sea water and Great Salt Lake Water, mineral oxides (i.e. - iron oxide, copper oxide, etc.), vortex waters, sea bed minerals, "soils" which are usually ,lay), sea bed clays and clays, "rock flours" and various antacids such as Rolaids and Tums
Typically metallic minerals are found in tablets and powders as
gluconate (calcium gluconate, zinc gluconate,etc,), lactate,
sulfates, carbonates and oxides
(iron oxide = rust!!!)
Metallic minerals despite wild claims to the contrary are only eight
to 12 % biologically available to animals and humans; after
attaining the age of 35 to 40 Years the availability of metallic
minerals to humans drops to three to five percent
We know of a man with a "Porta Potty" business in Grand Rapids,
Michigan who finds literally thousands of multiple vitamin/mineral
tablets in the bottom screens when the "Porta potty" is pressure
cleaned after a public event. We asked, "how do you know they are
multiple vitamin/mineral tablets?" and he replied," because the
names are still on the coatings (i.e.- One-A-Day, Theragram M,
Centrum, etc.)!! Over the years he has accumulated a literal
mountain of these tablets!!!
A typical metallic mineral supplement either alone or as part of a multiple is calcium lactate. Calcium lactate can be obtained in 2,000 mg tablets which breaks down to 140 mg of metallic calcium and 860 mg of milk sugar or lactose. Two 1000 mg calcium lactate tablets do not give you 2,000 mg of calcium they only give you 280 mg of metallic calcium - at a 10 %bioavailability rate,
Table 10 - 3. Amounts of Metallic
Calcium in a 1000 mg Tablet
- Calcium gluconate ..................... 90 mg
Calcium carbonate ................... 400 mg
Calcium acetate ....................... 230 mg
Calcium citrate ......................... 210 mg
Calcium lactate ......................... 140 mg
Cows milk (1000 mg fluid).......... 10 mg
you get 28 mg of biologically available calcium, therefore to get enough calcium from these tablets to meet your needs, you would have to take 30 tablets with each meal or 90 tablets a day and you have 59 more minerals to go (Table 10 -3 above)
2. CHELATED MINERALS
Chelated (Key-late) minerals were created by the livestock industry
in the 1960's to ensure maximum availability of dietary minerals to
animals being fed and fattened for market. The original chelating
agent used was calcium EDTA, a man made amino acid that was invented
by the Germans just Prior to WW II to antidote arsenic and lead
exposure in chemical warfare attacks (calcium EDTA is used today for
intravenous chelation therapy to clean out arterial obstructions).
The term Chelated literally means "claw," but is used to describe
the process by which an amino acid, protein or enzyme (enzymes are
proteins that do work) is wrapped around the mineral molecule which
enhances the bio-availability of the metallic mineral.
Chelated minerals are approximately 40 % bio available, a
significant improvement over the original metallic minerals your
septic tank in the back yard gets the other 60 % (Table 10 - 4).
Chelated minerals are easily recognized on the label of a multiple
vitamin/mineral supplement by the amino acid suffix such as selenium
aspartate, chromium picolinate, or sometimes as an "amino acid
chelate."
