Importance Of Minerals

Dr Linus Pauling, two times Nobel Laureate, said “one could trace every disease and every ailment to a mineral deficiency.” Approximately 99% of the human body is com­prised of minerals, yet minerals are generally over­looked when nutrition is considered. It is well known that the human body requires at least 60 minerals in order to maintain a disease and ail­ment free state. If this information is indeed true, it's easy to under­stand why sickness is so prevalent throughout the world, even in technologically advanced countries. The body can utilize minerals without vitamins, but vitamins are basically useless in the absence of minerals.

Foods we raise or purchase in markets today seldom contain more than 16 to 18 minerals. This small number of minerals in plants is because of a min­eral deficiency of the food producing soils around the world. This is caused by thousands of years of wind and rain erosion and unwise farming practices. Except for nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, the agriculture industry doesn’t replenish minerals depleted from the soils. Ironically, these three are the primary ones required to grow beautiful plants and produce, but do not provide all that our bodies require. Human bodies, like plants may grow and look beautiful for a limited time, but without providing the necessary cellular building blocks, they can neither obtain, nor maintain, good health. It is not only our personal experience, but our conclusion from extensive research, that without supplementation, it is not likely that we can eat enough food to get the full range of essential trace minerals required to obtain optimum health and longevity.

These Plant Derived Minerals are leached from prehistoric plants, preserved in humic shale strata for millions of years, containing the same kind of hydrophilic minerals that should be found in fruits and vegetables. These plants lived at a time when the richness of soil and plants were able to support plants and “dinosaurs” of tremendous size. This is the mineral source and potency of prehistoric Plant Derived Minerals. These miner­als are pre-digested by plants, which permit your body to absorb up to 100% of the minerals. Metallic minerals obtained from seabed, soil, or plants do not break down ground up rocks, which limits the absorption rate to 15% or less.

By supplementing with these “plant derived minerals”, you receive maximum mineral benefit, as well as saving money. With rock minerals, you are literally throwing away 85 cents on every dollar you spend. These “Plant Derived Minerals”, are an important part of the Trucker’s Complete formula “For The Open Road”. We encourage you to compare the mineral content of what we sell with that of other high profile proponents and marketers of health supplements.
