Important Minerals of the Body


To heal it isn’t necessary to understand the scientific aspect of it but you must understand the herb that correspond with the disease that is manifesting…" -Doctor Sebi 

There are 142 minerals on the planet which each express themselves in a different way. They cannot be generated by the body and must be consumed through an outside source. Here are five important ones:

CALCIUM
is the main part of bones and teeth. Not only does this mineral promote bone health, but calcium also regulates muscle tone, blood clotting and the ability of fluid to pass through cell walls. Over two pounds of calcium can be found in the bones and teeth of an average adult, making it a vital dietary aspect throughout a person's lifetime.

POTASSIUM helps to regulate waste balance and blood pressure. The mineral acts as a catalyst by helping to send oxygen to the brain. It also aids in the breakdown of carbohydrates and protein in the body. A lack of potassium in the diet can result in poor reflexes, respiratory failure and even muscle damage.

MAGNESIUM
is mostly found within the bones. This mineral helps to regulate metabolism and the cholesterol within the body. Magnesium also aids in turning blood sugar into energy as well as producing a calming effect on the nervous system. The body usually digests up to 45% of the magnesium it intakes through the consumption of vegetables and grains. A person lacking the required amounts of magnesium can suffer from nervousness, heart spasms and kidney stones.

IRON is found within every blood cell. This mineral aids in the production of hemoglobin and myoglobin which, in turn, builds the quality of the blood. Iron also helps the body resist stress, prevent fatigue and disease. A person with an iron deficiency may suffer weakness, paleness and anemia.

PHOSPHOROUS, is an important mineral found in every cell, and is a key component of the underlying structure of DNA. It also helps form the cell membranes that control what can and cannot enter an individual cell. Like calcium, phosphorus lends its strength to teeth and bones. Phosphorus also helps individual cells to convert food into energy, and is also a major player in the systems that maintain a balanced pH within the body.
