Next,
you can get the minerals you need from a variety of sources:
•
Take mineral supplements. When mineral intakes do not meet
dietary recommendations, supplements can make an important
contribution. Get advise about mineral supplements from
a reputable source. You can ask any our Wellness team members
about the different mineral options that we carry in our
Down to Earth Wellness Centers. Some of the products available
are Trace Mineral Research’s ConcenTrace Trace Mineral
Drops and Trace Mineral Tablets, along with World Organic’s
Liquid Collodial Mineral Energy.
•
Select fortified foods. Many foods are now fortified with
calcium, iron, and other minerals, as well as with vitamins
and other essential nutrients.
•
Grow your own. Soils can be analyzed and deficiencies corrected
by adding missing elements to restore balance. Amend the
soil and grow your own mineral-rich, healthy vegetables
and fruits.
Although it may sometimes be
overwhelming to remember the many nutrients that the body
needs to function properly, like minerals, it is important
to think of it as a growing process. The more aware we are
of our needs and what healthy choices are available to us,
the better armed we are, and the better prepared we can be
to take care of ourselves as well as our friends and families.
