"We are genetically programmed to 120 to 140 years. Americans have failed to fulfill this genetic potential - our average is 75.5, which ranked 17th in longevity in 1990 and 20th in longevity in 1995!"
"Five third world cultures do fulfill the human genetic potential for longevity. You may have heard of their names, which are well known for longevity of 120 to 140 years, if you have been to alternative health for a length of time.
certain tribes of Tibetans in western China; the Hunzas in eastern Pakistan near Mount Rakaposhi; the Russian Georgians of the Caucasus Mountains in western Russia; the Vilcabomba Indians in the Andes Mountains of Ecuador; and the Titicaca Indians in the Andes Mountains of southwestern Peru."
"They all live to be 120 to 140. These different cultures are living healthfully without disease or doctors and a common denominator connects them."
"They all live in mountain valleys 8,500 to 14,000 feet in elevation and they all get their water from glacial milk (the water that comes from underneath glaciers as they grind up the parent rock of the mountain). This highly mineralized water is white and opaque - it looks like milk."
"So they drink it. They absorb three to five percent of those metallic minerals. More importantly, for 2,500 to 5,000 years, they've irrigated their crops with it. Crop after crop, year after year, generation after generation. So their crops have converted the metallic minerals in the glacial milk into organically bound plant colloidal minerals, the most absorbable form of minerals. Plants are the only living organism that are able to make this conversion."
"Comparing plant derived colloidal minerals to rock, clay, coral and shell-based minerals - the health food store standards - is like comparing filet mignon to gristle. Colloids are liquid, they are 7,000 times smaller than a red blood cell (their small size makes it necessary to use an electron microscope to see them). They are all negatively charged, a unique feature of colloidal minerals. Their tiny size and negative charge give special properties of absorption into your body, as opposed to rock, coral and shell based minerals."
Dr. Wallach: "Few people understand how serious this absorption problem is. The mucosal lining of your intestines is the barrier that minerals must cross to enter your body and into your blood stream. About one third of the American population has an allergy to wheat glutin (celiac disease) or cows milk albumin which causes serious changes in the physical properties of the intestinal lining and therefore malabsorption. As a result many people spend hundreds of dollars per month on supplements without getting a nickel's worth of value."
"So absorption has been a huge problem. The other major problem is that doctors tell people they can get everything they need from the four food groups. That little sentence has killed more Americans than all the bullets and artillery from foreign enemies! It's just not true."
The Five Cultures mentioned above, gave the raw materials their body needed that let the greatest physician of all...their own body, do the healing. They nourished their body with plant derived colloidal minerals that helped them achieve the genetic potential for longevity that humans can attain.
Yes! That's the key: lacking vitamins, the body can use minerals, but without minerals, vitamins are worthless. And please keep this in mind: many minerals require other minerals to be utilized fully in the body. Think you get your minerals in a "balanced diet?" Think again!
In 1936, U.S. Senate Document 264, lamented our food's lack of mineral nutrient due to soil depletion. It's worse now. so chances are, if you're not supplementing your diet with all 60 known essential minerals, you're one of the 95% of all Americans deficient in nutritional minerals.
In the early 1800's Americans began to cross the Great Plains. What you don't know is that they never just settled in one place. Every 3-5 years, they'd have to pick up and move.
They'd start a little farm in Kansas or Nebraska, with a milk cow, a couple of pigs, some sheep and a few kids. After three to five years, one of the kids would die. Dad would get consumption. The cow would dry up. The tomato plants wouldn't grow more than a foot, and wouldn't make tomatoes.
So they were about to starve. And if they made it through the winter, they'd throw all their belongings in a wagon, and move a hundred miles west. And they'd set up again.
And in 3-5 years, another child would die, and Mrs. would get consumption this winter. Tomato plants wouldn't get higher than a foot. Wouldn't make tomatoes. The cow would dry up. If they survived the winter, they'd throw everything in the wagon, and they would move west again.
The soil was being depleted. Crops took minerals out of the soil; nothing put them back in. How did you beat that cycle? Own a piece of bottomland.
Wealthy farmers owned the bottomland. When it flooded, they would get new topsoil, silt and nutrition from hundred of miles upstream. If you were lucky enough to have a piece of bottomland, you didn't have to move. Why? Because the fertilizer would come to you.
The Egyptians realized this 5000 years ago and worshipped the Nile river for its yearly life giving floods. But if you were out on the prairie with no river, every 3 - 5 years you would pick up and move. Otherwise, your whole family would starve to death, for there would be nothing left in the soil.
So by this process...repeated tens of thousands of times over the last 200 years...the settlers were actually strip-mining the nutrients from the soils. And if there are no nutrients in the soil, there is no way your tomatoes or carrots or apples or potatoes can have nutrients in them.
Commercial fertilizer came on the market about 1900. Problem solved? Not hardly. It created more. Next time you go to your garden center, look closely at the ingredients in the fertilizer. Nitrogen, Phosphorus & Potassium (NPK). That's it...nothing more.
Why? Well, no matter what kind of plant - whether potatoes, okra, corn, wheat, eggplant, carrots or broccoli, or whatever. NPK fertilizer is all that is needed to get the maximum yield per acre. That's the only nutrition plants need.
And that's all the farmer gives them. But don't blame him...if he put a bunch of other minerals on the soil, his wheat would cost an extra 25 cents a bushel...and nobody would buy it. He'd be out of business.
So think about this. It takes 3 -5 years to exhaust the soil. We started fertilizing about 1900, so we've been putting NPK into the soil for 96 years, the soil has been exhausted except for what the plants absolutely need.
The fact is that animals and humans beings require about 90 nutrients - between 45 & 60 minerals, 3 essential fatty acids. And for 90+ years, only three have been put back into the soil. We know that plants can make amino acids. They can make most vitamins, and they can make varying amounts of essential fatty acids
But nothing can make a mineral! Does this begin to concern you a little bit? It did concern me when I
realized it. We NEED those minerals. Plants can't make them, so where do they come from?
Even if you are eating healthy, balanced foods, and taking vitamins daily, your body is still almost certainly lacking vital nutrients, starving for missing nutrition.
Minerals are absolutely essential for good health. Scientists have established that at least 28 mineral
elements are indispensible for normal nutrition. What's more, they're even more important than vitamins! Lacking vitamins, the body can make some use of minerals, but lacking minerals, vitamins are useless!
The shocking fact is that even if you pride yourself on eating a well-balanced diet, you're probably among the 95% of Americans, who are lacking in at least one major mineral! The root of this problem lies in a mineral-poor earth.
Recent research indicates that most people in the US have at least one hidden deficiency of a major mineral such as calcium or magnesium. Deficiencies in your intake of food, water, and even oxygen can be hard to spot. But over time, they can lead to degenerative diseases, and then death.
As far back as 1936, Senate Document No. 264 warned Americans that the soils used to grow fruits and vegetables were seriously deficient in needed minerals. Continuous cropping and the ravages of pollution even then were robbing the soil of the minerals needed to sustain life.
"The alarming fact is that foods (fruits, vegetables and grains) now being raised on millions of acres of land that no longer contain enough of certain minerals, are starving us - no matter how much of them we eat. No man of today can eat enough fruits and vegetables to supply his system with the minerals he requires for perfect health because his stomach isn't big enough to hold them."
"The truth is that our foods vary enormously in value, and some of them aren't worth eating as food...Our physical well-being is more directly dependent upon the minerals we take into our systems than upon calories or vitamins or upon the precise proportions of starch, protein or carbohydrates we consume."
Many well-respected scientists, researchers and medical professionals have established a relationship between mineral deficiencies and a wide variety of health conditions which afflict the human body. Additionally, extensive medical research, clinical and hospital studies have confirmed the effectiveness of minerals to working with many of these health conditions.
Minerals control the body's ability to absorb, and use vitamins. And without minerals, vitamins have no purpose, and are quickly eliminated from the body.
It is a huge waste of money to gobble handfuls of high potency tablets, without backing them up with the right minerals. It's like trying to run your car with a full tank of gas, but no oil in the engine.
Lacking vitamins, the system can make some use of minerals, but without minerals, vitamins are useless... This discovery is one of the latest and most important revelations by science about human health. Research has shown a direct correlation between mineral deficiencies and illnesses.
For example, diabetes or hypoglycemia involves chromium, zinc and vanadium deficiencies; cancer and heart disease involve selenium, copper, and more. Most everyone knows that osteoporosis involves a calcium deficiency, but fewer know about the need for magnesium and boron as well.
Baldness and premature graying is also caused by missing minerals. (You can hear full detail on the tape "Dead Doctors Don't Lie.") Life without minerals? Impossible! Did you know that proteins, enzymes and hormones are all formed from minerals? Minerals are the cornerstone of good health, all prevention and recovery programs.
When you are taking a vitamin-mineral tablet, you are taking what is called "METALLIC MINERALS." You only absorb 8-12% of these metallic minerals, the rest passes through you. If you talk to a chiropractor who x-rays patients, he'll tell you what he sometimes sees lined up in the small intestines: Whole Vitamin & Mineral tablets, like little boxcars, taking a long ride through the intestines.
Before you can use even the normal 8-12% of a metallic mineral, the WHOLE mineral must be broken down by your body. That's asking a lot of a body unless it's already in top shape.
The health food industry had a problem in the late 70's, they developed "chelated" minerals: wrapping amino acids or protein around the minerals helps the body metabolize them. This results in slightly over 50% absorption at best.
Keep in mind...metallic minerals (also known as elemental minerals or salts) come from
oyster shell,
calcium carbonate,
limestone,
clay,
sea salts.
Supposedly, too much of some of these elements can have toxic effects on your body.
Human beings are not able to efficiently absorb them or to use them. Certain animals are, but we are not. Nevertheless, that's where the minerals in most mineral tablets come from.
There is another form of minerals. They're organically derived minerals. These don't come from rocks and soil. They are neither metallic nor salts.
The organic or plant derived minerals come from humic shale. What's that? Well, it's prehistoric plant life
in its concentrated form. It was first discovered on a Utah mountain-top and sold in 1926. It's plant derived minerals.
That was 70 years ago, so we're not talking about some brand new, unproven product. Colloidal minerals are still harvested on that mountain today, from a 70-million-year-old humic shale deposit.
The air was full of oxygen and nitrogen back then, not like today. Some trees grew 25 feet A YEAR! Earth was a nutrient rich environment. Animal life like the Brontosaurus ate lots of minerals back when it was in plant form. And you know how big they got.
Millions of years ago, Mother nature yielded a nutritional powerhouse. Prehistoric plan life was packet with one of nature's most amazing nutrients...colloidal minerals are taken from plants that have already assimilated inorganic minerals from rocks and soil.
Through a process called photosynthesis, the plants have converted these precious minerals into organic colloidals that are easily absorbable by the human body.
Colloidals are microscopic-sized electrically charged particles. When absorbed by the body, colloidals act like a magnet, helping to pull broken-down cells into the bloodstream to be eliminated. Meanwhile, the body is replenished with nourishing life-enriching minerals.
Let's go back in time, approximately 100 million years ago. A time when the air was uncontaminated and the forests were thick with lush vegetation. The soil was so fertile, trees grew up to 25 feet a year.
Animals that depended on plant life grew to astonishing proportions. Take the brontosaurus, for example, which was the largest creature in the history of the earth. Bronty, who was strictly a vegetarian, weighed in at a hefty 70 tons, yet his mouth was no larger than that of a horse.
Obviously uncontaminated prehistoric plant life held a fabulous nutritional secret. Today we are quite sure that secret is colloidal minerals of plant origin.
How did minerals get into the plant back then? Of course, they came from soil and rock. But they became part of the plant through the process of photosynthesis. And that made them "colloidal", which is our key word for today.
Comparing colloidal minerals to rock and shell based minerals is like comparing filet mignon to gristle. Colloidal minerals have a negative electrical charge and each particle is hundreds of times smaller than a metallic mineral.
The colloidals stay suspended in water rather than going into solution because of the negative charge and their size/weight ratio.
Expert chemists say the reason colloidals are non-toxic is because of their plant or vegetable source, and their negative electrical charge. For example, iodine in colloidal form is one of the elements essential for human cells. But, if you drank even 2-3 grains of free iodine, it would surely kill you.
In colloidal form, it is not only harmless, it is beneficial. The same is true for arsenic, lead, aluminum, and other minerals considered toxic.
Colloidals are the smallest particles that matter can be divided into while still keeping its individual characteristics. The particles range from 0.01 millionths of an inch to 10 millionths of an inch in size. The smaller ones cannot be seen with any microscope. Their small size gives colloidal minerals enormous surface area, and special properties of absorption for your body, as opposed to rock and shell based minerals.
One teaspoon of colloidals can have a total surface area of over 127 acres. With billions of tiny electrically - charged minerals. Soil with a similar amount of minerals, but metallic, have particles, which are hundreds or thousands of time larger, and positively charged, which makes a big difference. You can't absorb them.
If you're starving and you eat soil, you would get no nourishment. Your body just can't absorb inorganic minerals efficiently, nor can it convert them. Only a plant can take dead soil out of the earth, and make live material that your body can use.
Colloidal minerals are truly the most efficient way to get your minerals. You can absorb 98% of them. They are liquid. They have a small particle size. To give you a comparison: a red blood cell is 7 microns. A colloidal mineral particle is 0.01 micron (or less): that is 1/700th the size of a red blood cell.
Minerals move around in our bodies through our blood, and we store minerals in our cells. The small size of colloidal minerals is ideal. The negative charge means they stay in solution or suspension - they don't settle out. They are very, very absorbable.
If you're going to spend money for minerals, you should get the highest value for your dollar. Plus, it is far easier to get kids to take liquid organic minerals than any big pills.
Most "kids" products don't contain many minerals anyway. Read the labels they have maybe one mineral, or five, or fifteen at most. And the other 40+ minerals human need??? In fact, you don't get the minerals or the balanced nutrition you and your family need to help manage stress and stay vital.
Organically derived minerals has 7 major and up to 70 minor colloidal trace minerals which go into instant action in your body. They're so potent that a gallon of organically derived minerals or plant derived minerals can supply two years' worth of minerals obtained from the average diet.
Used by millions of people since the 20's, plant derived or organically derived minerals is
nature's original, unaltered, time proven formula. It's non-toxic, anti-bacterial, anti-viral and anti-fungal.
The minerals occur in naturally varying amounts measured in milligrams, PPM (parts per million) or PPB (parts per billion).
They give you, what you used to think you got from your vegetables. Our depleted soils have been strip-mined for 100 years. They no longer contain the minerals your body needs, nor do commercial fertilizers. As a result, many Americans suffer mineral deficient disease
They are liquid. Instead of having to break down bulky, compressed tablets, or gelatin capsules, the body can immediately go to work using them. People who dislike taking pills for any reason find the organic or plant derived minerals liquid supplements simple and easy.
They're in colloidal form. Predigested by plants. Organic or plant derived minerals has the most absorbable nutrients you can get. At least 98% of plant derived minerals can be absorbed, as opposed to chelated (40-60%) or regular (8-12%) minerals.
They are "adapt agents." Which means plant derived minerals won't interfere with any other supplemental or therapeutic program. Instead, they assist any and all diets, medication or herbs to work faster and more efficiently.
They're found in nature's best balance. Most scientific studies isolate minerals and vitamins from each other in order to study and market them. However, the natural proportions of minerals created in Mother Nature's laboratory synergies for the best digestion and balance possible. Most importantly, it comes from a unique, pure earth-based source...best for land animals and people.
They are an inexpensive "Preventive" while being rich in substance. One ounce of organic or plant derived minerals a day contains more minerals than most people get in a week, and is only $18/month (wholesale). Less than 70 cents a day. Your health is your most important investment you can make. What's your health worth to you?

Long, long, long ago the fertile mineral-rich soils produced lush vegetation which in turn nourished animal life, including gigantic dinosaurs.
Stage 2
Thousands of years later: deposits of sand, silt, mud and lava buried the original vegetation, creating a time capsule.
Stage 3
Through a natural leaching process, this material formed an unusual
deposit of various colloidal minerals from an organic source.
Stage 4
Early in the 20th century, after thousands of years of erosion of the formation's top layers, the mineral deposit was exposed, the time capsule was discovered, and a mine was opened.
Stage 5
The mineral deposit is extracted from the mine when it is crushed. It then goes into leaching vat and a custom 7-stage filtering process, becoming the Plant Derived Mineral concentrate.
Stage 6
This concentrate is then trucked to our bottling facility where it is then bottled and added to the various products of the Plant Derived Minerals line.
Stage 7
Today, tens of thousands of families around the world are enjoying the many benefits of this amazing nutritional discovery.
The established medical field has erroneously believed that mineral supplements were not important or at least not related to good health. Extensive research done in the last two decades conclusively proves:
The soil has been depleted of minerals and we can not possibly get all the minerals we need for optimum health, by just eating 3 meals a day from the "four food groups."
When your body is assaulted by injury, sickness, disease, exercise, drugs, pollutants, vital minerals are depleted more rapidly and if not replaced, you risk decreased vitality, increase of sickness and disease and an early unnecessary demise.
Because of the excessive pollutants in the air, food and water, you require additional minerals to aid in eliminating these dangerous toxins from your system.
Junk foods quickly deplete your body of required minerals necessary for healthy living. In addition, they damage intestinal lining cells so that even when you do eat good food, absorption is limited.
Excessive cravings for "junk food" or alcohol or drugs indicate your body is not getting the minerals it needs from your regular diet. So you'll tend to consume too much of a certain thing (fat, sugar, calories). It's your body's way of trying to obtain the missing nutrients.
And even if your diet was able to supply you with adequate doses of the major minerals, it would still be lacking in the trace minerals found in the plant derived minerals products.
The colloidal trace minerals found in plant derived products are 98% absorbable for use in the body, and as you can see, play a very important role in maintaining a healthy balance within your body. The importance of some of the trace elements, as well as the effects of a deficiency in them, will lead in time to a nutritional deficiency disease.
You've heard for 30 years that vegetable oil is healthier than saturated fatty acids or animal fat. Right? "Give up red meat. Pull the skin off the chicken before you eat it. Use Vegetable oil."
But on October 7, 1992, the U.S. Department of Agriculture announced research showing that vegetable oil
and margarine causes heart disease.
"It's not nice to fool Mother Nature." Remember that old margarine commcercial? "Margarine is better for you than butter." Right? "Butter is terrible and full of cholesterol." Right?
March 3, 1993, Headline: "Stick Margarine Boosts Your Risk of Heart Attack." In a study of 90,000 nurses, half ate butter and half ate margarine. Result? Eating margarine gave a 70% higher risk of heart disease than butter.
Dr. Wallach: "Veterinarians knew this in the 50's. They tried to get animals to gain weight faster - pump more calories into 'em. And since oil has twice the calories of carbohydrate calves and turkeys and pigs and chickens got 40% of their calories as vegetable oil. They gained weight 10 times faster than the ones just getting cracked corn."
"Worked great for four weeks. But at 6 weeks they all died of heart attacks. So vets learned that the vegetable oil theory was a good idea gone bad!"
But the agricultural industry had geared up for corn oil. They figured. "It's not proven to be bad for humans yet. We'll convince people that vegetable oils are good for them. Maybe we'll get 15-20 years before they figure it out."
"So they've killed about 10 million Americans with this vegetable oil kick. And now they whisper, "Pss-ss-st. It's bad for you." Of course, if you wrapped the garbage with the newspaper that day, you missed it."
Ever get a cholesterol test? We spent $117 billion dollars for cholesterol testing alone in 1995. In August of 1992, Headline: "Top Researchers Reluctantly Admit Low Levels of Cholesterol are Bad for You!"
Vegetarians often have low cholesterol. Below 180 is dangerous. The statistics: In a University of California (San Francisco) study of 350,000 people over 20 years: with blood cholesterol below 180, you have
a 200% increased risk of dying of a stroke or intracranial hemorrhage; a 300% increased risk of dying of liver cancer; a 200% increased risk of dying of lung disease (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, emphysema and asthma); a 200% increase in risk of being depressed and suicidal and a 500% increased risk of dying of an addictive process such as alcoholism, drugs and smoking.
Dr. Wallach: "Business as usual. Nobody ever said what cholesterol is used for. Must be bad - heart disease. Anybody ever tell you that if you don't eat it your body makes it?"
"Cholesterol makes up 75% of your brain's weight. If you don't eat it, the first thing that goes after 5-10 years on a cholesterol restricted diet is the old squashola - you actually increase your risk of developing Alzheimer's disease - a physician caused disease!"
"Cholesterol is the basic building block to manufacture sex hormones - estrogen and testosterone. Lacking optimal intake of cholesterol, ladies will have hot flashes so bad they can melt steel and guys won't know whether to lead or follow on the dance floor."
According to the Center for Disease Control in Atlanta, 100,000 youngsters, as well as pros die each year from cardio-vascular disorders as a result of sports - THIS IS TWICE THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE THAT DIE ON THE NATIONS HIGHWAYS! 45,000 of the 100,000 play basketball, not boxing or football. In hard exercise, people sweat out many of their vital minerals - not just sodium and potassium. Rigorous exertion without replacing lost minerals can be fatal. There are sports drinks that are supposed to replace nutrients lost during exertion, these would work fine if they had more than sugar, salt, potassium, and food coloring. Replenish lost minerals in your sporting activity, take with you Majestic Earth® Sports Tech.
