Why are minerals important?

Today's standard American diet still presents most of us with the challenge of getting sufficient daily mineral intake. The quality of soils in which foods are grown repeatedly seems still to be a point of concern. In addition, "fast foods" are readily available for our convienience, but not usually designed to provide balanced, whole nutrition. This may well contribute to poor food choices on the part of many of us who want to be healthy, but may not have time.

Minerals are essential for enabling the body to perform all its functions, including energy production, growth and healing. Both major and trace minerals are nutrients best taken daily. Mega Minerals Plus contains Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc, Selenium, Manganese, Chromium, Molybdenum, Potassium, Boron, and Silicon. These are required by our bodies in larger amounts whereas the trace minerals are needed only in very small amounts for good health and give maximum penetration through cell membranes.

What are some possible results of good mineralization?

• Maintenance of the sodium-potassium balance inside and outside the cell
• Maintenance of teeth and bones
• Promotion of sound sleep
• Proper control of tissue fluid acid-alkaline balance
• Maintenance of the body's homeostatic balance

What makes minerals effective?

Absorption is a factor.

Mega Minerals Plus provides us with ionic minerals, which are small enough to pass through tissues. In addition, inulin, which is a naturally occurring polysaccharide, is added to enhance absorption of calcium and magnesium. The ability to utilize nutrients is also in part dependent on a person's own ability to absorb them. Let Mega Minerals Plus supply your daily needs.

A full-complement of minerals makes them all effective. Each mineral interacts with other specific minerals, and the lack of just one of them can inhibit the effectiveness on them all.

Even though Calcium is the most abundant mineral and the most widely used in the body, it cannot perform its numerous tasks by itself. There are eight other minerals with which it is associated. These eight interactions are all important. The deficiency of just one of these can impact all the others, and the entire body as well. This same kind of interactive relationship exits between all other minerals.

Quality is a factor

USP pharmaceutical-grade ingredients are used in our Mega Minerals Plus. USP is an independent, science-based public health organization called United States Pharmacopoeia, which is the official public standards-setting authority for all prescription and over-the-counter medicines, dietary supplements, and other healthcare products manufactured and sold in the Unites States. USP sets standards for the quality of these products. "Pharmaceutical grade" refers to the level of purity of ingredients required in pharmaceutical labs. These ingredients are unmixed with any impure ingredients. The degree of purity gives a much higher degree of bioavailability, which means your body can absorb them more easily, and this can make a big difference in your health.
