Liquid Chelated Trace Mineral RDA'sTrace minerals are so important that the lack of trace minerals quite possibly is the primary cause of disease within Western culture today. Unfortunately, it is difficult to obtain the necessary minerals from food because of mineral-deficient soils that are common throughout the world today. It only takes 10 years of intensive farming to exhaust the minerals in any tract of land. The depletion of necessary nutrients by cooking and processing living foods adds to the difficulty in obtaining vital minerals and vitamins from our food. Individually, trace minerals have been found to be beneficial for a number of health needs, such as: Zinc helps wounds heal, and are critical to the production of white blood cells that regulate the immune system. Toxins are removed from the liver through chemical reactions with zinc. Zinc also helps transport vitamin A from the liver to the skin. Iodine is required to regulate the thyroid gland. Selenium is one of the most important antioxidants in the body, it helps vitamin E protect cells and body tissues by destroying free radicals. Copper’s many functions include being part of hundreds of proteins and enzymes, developing red blood cells, strengthening blood vessels and bones. Manganese does a little bit of everything, from building bones to being an antioxidant. Chromium regulates the breakdown of sugar and carbohydrates in the body and insulin production. Molybdenum metabolizes nitrogen. It is also built into certain enzymes and amino acids and is critical for a healthy nervous system. Amino Acids are fundamental constituents of all proteins. Some amino acids can be synthesized by the body, however the essential amino acids must be obtained from protein in the diet.
