MINERAL SUPPLEMENTATION
MINERALS ARE CRITICAL FOR NORMAL BODY FUNCTION
Minerals make up 4 - 5 % of human body weight and are absolutely critical for normal body function. Important building blocks of bones, teeth, soft tissue, muscle, blood, and nerve cells, minerals are crucial to muscle response, nervous system communication, digestion, metabolism, and production of hormones and antibodies. They also regulate the body's balance of water, acids, bases, and other important substances.
WHY A MINERAL SUPPLEMENT?
THE MINERAL GAP
Mineral deficiencies are widespread, and their effects can be devastating. Osteoporosis, anemia, high blood pressure, weakened immunity; cancer - these are just a few of the many conditions that can arise when mineral demand exceeds intake.
Several factors can hasten mineral depletion. Soil composition varies from region to region, and foods grown on mineral-depleted soil can in turn be mineral poor. Or food processing - canning of produce, milling of grains, refining of sugar, peeling fruits and vegetables, etc. - may lessen the mineral content of foods. Certain foods, medications, stress, or lack of exercise can interfere with mineral utilization. Moreover, particular dietary practices can increase risks for mineral deficiencies.
MULTI-MIN WITH CHELATES AND CUSTOM TRACE MINERALS CAN HELP FILL THE GAP
If you'd like to boost the mineral density and diversity of your diet, GNLD's (Neolife's) Multi-Min provides broad-spectrum mineral supplementation in one product. A broad spectrum of macrominerals and microminerals plus a custom trace-mineral blend, Multi-Min with chelates helps provide "nutritional insurance" for optimal health and vitality; Formulated for biocompatibility, Multi-Min offers several important advantages:
Chelates and complexes. Our zinc and iron are chelated with amino acids, and our selenium and chromium are complexed with amino acids. In general, the body does not absorb minerals efficiently. Both chelation and complexation greatly increase mineral absorption. For instance, the absorption of chelated minerals may be six times greater than that of non-chelated varieties! In addition, compared to non-chelated products, chelated minerals are less irritating to the stomach and intestines. Our senior Scientific Advisory Board member, Dr. Arthur Furst, pioneered amino acid chelation of minerals in the mid- 1970s. This kind of expertise supports all GNLD products and was instrumental in creating Multi-Min.
Custom Trace Mineral Blend.
Multi-Min supplies a broad spectrum of trace elements from a unique combination of sea vegetation, including diatom complex, marine organic complex, Atlantic kelp, sea dulse, and Irish moss. GNLD's Custom Trace Mineral Blend helps assure a diversity of important minerals.
Organic sources wherever possible. Although all minerals have their origins as inorganic earth elements, some are bound in organic systems. Both organic and inorganic forms of minerals exist in our food supply. After reviewing a variety of natural mineral sources, we selected mineral-rich organic sources to assure a diverse blend of minerals. For instance, kelp provides some of Multi-Min's iodine.
Speedy dissolution for excellent bio-availability. GNLD chelated minerals are manufactured using the most soluble forms of minerals, so their dissolution is speedy. The result? Highly bio-available, Multi-Min gives your body minerals in forms it can best utilize.
