IMMUNE POWER DIET: ARE YOU GETTING ENOUGH IMMUNE POWER MINERALS?
The answer to that question is “probably not.” Considering the way most people eat, getting enough of the particular immune minerals needed can be a real problem. Much of the food we eat has been processed within an inch of its life. It may look, and sometimes even taste, like nourishing food, but the odds are that most of the original vitamin and mineral content has been lost along the path of heating, cooking, drying, preserving, steaming, canning, shipping, or storing.Most of us are in vitamin and mineral debt to our bodies. In some cases, it resembles the national debt—a perfect set-up for immune bankruptcy. What is needed is an infusion of “capital,” in the form of immune power nutrients, to put your immune accounts back in the black.MINERAL TEAMWORK AND YOUR HEALTHI don’t want to leave you with the idea that you have totally separate accounts for each vital mineral—one for iron, one for zinc, and so on. It’s much more complex than that. Each immune builder works with many others, chemically combining, enhancing, and balancing, because they must all work together to produce immune power.MINERAL SHOPPERS’ TIPWhen you buy mineral supplements, make sure and ask for chelated minerals. Chelated minerals are treated to make them much more available to your body. Non-chelated minerals may contain only one-half of the dose in a form that your body can use. Buying chelated minerals makes your health dollar go twice as far.*56\242\2*
