Why waste your money or mineral supplements you can’t absorb? The Calcium in an oyster shell is “natural” but that doesn’t mean we should eat it. It is inorganic and in its basic rock form, and so are 99% of mineral supplements.
How are they created in nature? Plants take inorganic mineral rocks out of the soil and turn them in to food minerals we can recognise - we can refer to this as the food chain
Mineral supplements are industrially produced by pharmaceutical companies and sold as “natural”, BUT they will:
-
Never be a truly complete nutrient source.
-
Never replace all the functions of food minerals.
-
Always be unnatural substances to the body.
-
Always strain the body by requiring that it detoxify or dispose of their unnatural structures/chemicals.
-
Never be utilized, absorbed, and retained the same as food nutrients.
-
Never be able to have the antioxidant effects the same as food nutrients.
-
Always be industrial products.
-
Always be composed of petroleum-derivatives, hydrogenated sugars, acids, and/or industrially-processed rocks.
-
Never build optimal health the same as food nutrients.
Industrially processed minerals can have some positive nutritional effects, yet they are not food for humans. Unlike humans, plants have roots which aid in the absorption of minerals. Plants actually have the ability to decrease the toxicity of compounds by changing their biochemical forms. Plants are naturally intended to ingest rocks - humans are not!
Foodstate Minerals can genuinely be considered natural and are better absorbed, used and retained by humans because they are grown with exactly the same structure and plant minerals
