How To Choose A Mineral Supplement

By Neil Butterfield

You know to stay healthy you need to take vitamins and minerals in the proper amount. However, the problem is proper amounts are very difficult to get from normal foods. It can also be harder than you expect to get it from a chelated (pill) supplement. You are about to find out what to look when choosing a vitamin/mineral supplement.

Most people buy a multi-vitamin/mineral by going into a vitamin store and choosing one that has a 100% or more. But if this multi-vitamin is a pill, (even chelated) you're getting less than 25% of what's listed on the bottle. Shocking isn't it? You thought that little multi was giving you all you needed.

In order to actually get the required amount you must take a liquid mineral supplement and liquid ionic minerals are actually the best. Liquid mineral supplements are water based so the absorbency is nearly 100%. Therefore youll actually get the benefit of the supplement.

Everyone knows that fresh fruits and vegetables are better for you than supplements.

You see, modern foods don't contain the nutrients it once did, (like it did in our grandparents? time.) So even if you eat correctly, you could still be lacking some minerals.

Vitamins and minerals (also known as micronutrients,) are impossible for your body to make and difficult to find in today's foods, so supplements really are the best way to go.

Whole foods are more complex and higher in fiber than processed food and are the best way to get micronutrients. They can also strengthen your immune system to protect you from disease and other illness.

So who should take a mineral supplement? If you eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, have a diet high in whole grains, lots of fish, and lean meats and if you do this every day you may not need a supplement. But if we are being honest, most of us dont eat right every day and so for most of us a mineral supplement is necessary.

You should definitely take liquid Ionic mineral supplement if you:

*You only eat 1500 calories a day *Are on a restricted diet due to food allergies *You have had any kind of operation on your digestive tract *You eat a lot of processed foods and few whole ones *If you don't eat meat *If you bleed heavily or have bad PMS when it's that time *If pregnant, planning on becoming pregnant or breast feeding *Starting or already in menopause *You take any kind of medication long term *You get a lot of diarrhea

Always read the label before buying any type of supplement. Especially with liquid supplements, you want to follow the dosing instructions carefully. Don't forget, with a liquid ionic mineral supplement youre getting much more effectiveness than with a pill. That's good for your body, so protect your health today. - 17274
