Balance Your Way To Health!

Some very wise people once made the statement, "We are a

nation of impending BIG BELLIES." Those very same wise

people also stated that;

"It is bad news to learn from our leading authorities that 99

percent of the American people are deficient in minerals, and

that a marked deficiency in any one of the more important

minerals actually results in DISEASE. Any upset of the

balance, any considerable lack of one or another element,

however microscopic the body requirement may be, and we

sicken, suffer, shorten our lives".

cannot produce plant life competent to maintain our needs,

and with the continuous cropping and shipping away of

those trace minerals and concentrates, the condition

becomes worse. We are a nation of impending fat bellies!"

These statements were made in 1936 by the United States

Congress, following a study of our food nutrient values, and

reported in the Readers Digest that year. Those facts have

only worsened with the years of land abuses, chemicals and
