| Colloidal Mineral Questions & Answers -- Health |
“Why should I take colloidal minerals?”
Minerals never occurred in a uniform blanket around the crust of the Earth but rather were and are today found in veins. It was always a throw of the dice what minerals and how much of each were found in any given field. Therefore it has always been a throw of the dice who gets what deficiency disease.
To eliminate random mineral deficiency disease in livestock the agriculture industry added minerals and trace minerals to feed pellets so that every mouthful the animal consumed, contained optimal levels of minerals.
By contrast humans have historically been told that “you can get everything you need from the food groups”, which is simply untrue.
We have used the simple fertilizers NPK for over 100 years in America for maximum yields of tons and bushels per acre. As a result, our farm and range soils are exhausted of organic material and depleted of essential minerals.
Minerals in their metallic form can be toxic to the human body. Dangerous levels of these metallic minerals can accumulate in the tissues and create serious health problems. These are found in the 2000-year-old seabed deposits, and are loaded with chloride. Very toxic inorganic minerals are being sold to an unsuspecting public under the guise of colloidal.
The key factor is true plant derivation. There is currently only one source, and one company, Youngevity. Plant source minerals are completely non-toxic, and is proven by its 70-year history of positive results with the thousands of its customers.
“What does the term colloidal mean?”
Colloids also have further electrochemical properties that make them unique. Any form of mineral may be reduced to the colloidal size...so it is important to also ensure that the mineral source is organic, yielding a bioelectrical charge.
When discussing minerals, the size of the particle, the electrical charge and the ply of the substance must all be considered(a low or acidic pH is best). The Majestic Earth liquid minerals have a natural negative electrical charge, which is the signature of the true plant derived mineral.
This has two very important benefits. One, it greatly increases the transport and bioavailability of other nutrients from foods and/or vitamins and other supplements. And two, it will attract toxins and heavy metals from the body and flush them out.
Clinical tests done in the U.S. and in Germany have verified this. The mineral product that Dr. Joel Wallach is referring to on his audiotape, “Dead Doctors Don’t Lie”, is the Majestic Earth product which has been on the market for 70 years.
“How long have colloidal minerals been around?”
Through an unusual set of circumstances the mineral remains of an ancient rain forest, determined by the U.S. Dept. of Interior to be from the Cretaceous Period were encapsulated and preserved.
These minerals are derived from prehistoric plant known as “humic shale”. The material is not bentonite, clay or dried up seabeds, which is the most common source of so-called colloidal minerals.
Only a small portion from various parts of the deposit are used to insure a balance of the over 65 various minerals and trace minerals that form the exclusive, Majestic Earth product that meets Dr. Wallach’s quality standards, the rest is sold to bulk processors and distributed under various labels.
Only the Youngevity brand name represents the Majestic Earth product. Time tested by 70 years of use. This is the product all others try to compare themselves with.
These rare colloidal plant minerals are extracted with pure, cool clear water to the desired concentration and then processed through a complex array of special filters to allow only the organic colloidal minerals in the final solution.
Humic shale is pulverized and placed in large food grade vats and submerged in purified cool water and allowed to leach naturally and undisturbed for many weeks. During this period the plant derived minerals blend with water to form an organic colloidal concentrate. This amazing tonic has passed numerous health and safety tests, including stringent ones conducted by quality control laboratories. This pure straight-from-the-earth nutritional wonder is found in all Majestic Earth Products. There are no preservatives, flavorings, or synthetic substances added.
“Which colloidal minerals are best?”
As for quantity…. here’s a test you can do in your own kitchen. Take a quart of some other product and a quart of Majestic Earth Colloidal Minerals. Simmer (DON’T boil) them to get the water off, using a Teflon pan to make it easier to lift out all the minerals. How much mineral is left? Other products leave a mineral content of about 1/2 gram/liter, with some even less. You’ll soon discover that no product comes close to the 19 grams/liter of minerals that you get in Majestic Earth Colloidal Minerals. It is physically impossible for these other products, with inorganic sources, to contain much more, simply because the liquid cannot hold it. But with the organic plant colloidals, the liquid will hold thousands of times more minerals. This is why the Majestic Earth Colloidal Minerals are so unique. Each quart of Majestic Earth plant derived colloidal mineral solution contains up to 77 minerals in their unaltered organically bound colloidal form.
The ONLY mineral products that Dr. Joel Wallach chooses to put his picture on the label, is Youngevity’s Majestic Earth colloidal minerals. There are many products being sold, that make a reference to Dr. Joel Wallach. They are NOT what Dr. Wallach endorses. It is called “Bait and Switch”. Buyer Beware.
Dr. Wallach exclusively OWNS Youngevity and only endorses or recommends these liquid colloidal mineral products.
Each quart of the liquid mineral concentrate contains approximately 19,000 milligrams of 7 major minerals and 70 trace minerals. The liquid minerals are without a doubt, the purest, most comprehensive and most result-producing plant derived colloidal mineral supplement in the world.
“Where do I start?”
“How much is enough?”
The Oxy products have their own special use instructions. Due to the vital nature of the product and the hydrogen peroxide it contains, you should begin modestly, with 1/2 ounce per day and work your way up to 2 ounces per day over a months time.
Children should take our liquid products sparingly at first depending to their tolerance, and how nutritionally deficient the child might be. Recommendation is at the rate of 1/2 teaspoon per 20 pounds of body weight twice daily.
“When do I take it?”
The one exception is the Oxy products. This product should be taken on an empty stomach. Either first thing in the morning or last thing in the evening is best, and additional amounts can be taken at least 30 minutes before or 3 hours after a meal.
“Do the products have to be refrigerated after opening?”
Our tabulated formulations do not need refrigeration but should be kept in a cool place whenever possible. Frequently shipping liquid products during cold winter months will cause them to freeze during transit. This does not harm our formulations. Simply allow them to thaw at room temperature.
"Do your products have any side effects? Is it possible to take an overdose?"
All of the minerals in our liquid organic bio-electrical trace element products are in a natural organic form that may be used by the body without the risk of building up to potentially toxic levels. Minerals such as aluminum, arsenic, lead and so forth in the natural organic form are not only beneficial to the body but actually help the body to remove potentially harmful heavy metal forms of these elements. Only the colloidal form of these are beneficial, and only found occurring naturally.
It is impossible to overdose on any Majestic Earth product Even if you were to take 10 times the recommended amount the only side effect might likely be diarrhea for a day or so. The body will absorb what it needs and eliminate the rest. Diarrhea might occur if you reach your "bowel tolerance", but this is highly unlikely.
"How long will it take for me to actually feel a difference? Can your products improve, treat or cure certain illnesses?"
As far as the effect on major illnesses, the law currently states that no health claims may be made for any nutritional product. It is our philosophy that only the body can heal -- but it can do so only when its basic nutritional needs are met on a daily basis. When these nutrients are taken as directed on the bottle, the body is in a better position to regulate internal chemistry and heal itself.
"Are the Majestic Earth products compatible with each other?"
“Your products claim to be all-natural. What does that mean?”
“I am taking medication what reaction can I expect?”
“What is this iron clad guarantee?”
OUR GUARANTEE IS THIS:
TAKE 2-4 OUNCES OF Majestic EARTH DAILY FOR 30 DAYS, IF YOU DON'T FEEL A PHYSICAL DIFFERENCE BY THAT TIME, RETURN THE UNUSED PORTION FOR A FULL REFUND.
Depending on whose research you look at there may be as many as 60 essential minerals. By definition, if any of these essential minerals are missing from our diet, disease or even death can occur.
“Colloidal” refers to the size of the particles of a particular substance. In the case of minerals, colloidal particles are of a size that they will neither float nor sink in water. Due to their small size the surface area of these minerals is greatly increased, providing a larger area upon which enzyme activity may take place thus increasing breakdown and eventual absorption.
It is a little known fact that colloidal minerals have been consumed in America as a bottled supplement since 1926. In 1925, a rancher in Central Utah made a historic discovery when he found the Majestic Earth source.
There are lots of mineral products on the market. How can you prove Majestic Earth Colloidal Minerals are the best? Best depends on two things: Quality (absorbability) and quantity (variety and amount) of minerals. Majestic Earth Colloidal Minerals are a colloidal plant product made with the absolute highest quality standards anywhere, shown by the previous answer.
It is recommended starting with a mix of products that provides the full spectrum of vitamins, major minerals, trace minerals, and supportive nutrients. For example, Majestic Earth and Plus or Ultimate. Only you can know your needs so listen to the tape “Dead Doctors Don’t Lie” if you haven't done so already, that will give you a starting point to work with. After this basic program has been achieved, the user may wish to add extra nutrient products from our Majestic Earth Tablets & Capsules to meet their own specific nutritional needs.
According to the instructions: Take one ounce of the Majestic Earth product per hundred pounds of body weight per day. If you weigh 150 pounds, for example, you should take 1 1/2 ounces of the particular Majestic Earth product per day. To help you measure that amount, the bottle cap is made to hold exactly one ounce. More can be taken if needed.
You may experience the best results by taking the particular Majestic Earth product just before, during or after a meal in the a.m. and/or p.m. By so doing, you benefit from the stomach's activated digestive "juices" and can more quickly absorb the minerals you take.
Although we recommend that you keep the liquid products under refrigeration whenever possible, the only ones that need to be kept so are the Ultimate Liquid supplements. The other products will do quite nicely without refrigeration (although taste is often improved by keeping them cold).
All of our products are made up of totally natural ingredients. They are nutritional supplements and therefore contain no medicinal properties or drugs as ingredients. The vast majority of individuals can take dietary supplements without any side effects whatsoever. However, even though our products are hypo-allergenic and contain no wheat, soy, corn or artificial ingredients, on occasion, certain people may be allergic to one or more nutrients or herbs contained in a formula. Further, if you are not accustomed to taking full spectrum dietary supplements and have a past history of sensitivities, you might wish to begin with the products slowly, building up to a recommended level over a period of time. Unlike some vitamins you might take that could accumulate to toxic levels in your body, the Majestic Earth trace minerals pose no such danger because they are plant derived. This is one of the benefits of taking a natural unprocessed product, no fillers!
As you might expect, this is a very difficult question to answer with any degree of accuracy. Everyone's body is so different, with varying stages of trace mineral deficiencies. Even so, it is not uncommon for first time users to begin noticing benefits with the first bottle. One of the first things people often report is an increase in energy, and many people experience a greater number of benefits as time goes on. And we have had "MD's tell people to stop taking Majestic Earth for that reason. Remember your doctor can't make that boat payment if your not sick. The medical industry is just that, an industry, based on profit and loss. Take a look at the stock exchange and see how many "health" related companies are really out there. Someone has to stay very sick to support that industry.
You can take one or more liquid formulations together if you want without detracting from any of the products. You may also take the liquid formulations - especially Majestic Earth - with any of our tablets or capsule products. The tabulated products are specifically designed to be organic bio-electrical trace minerals such as are found in Majestic Earth minerals. All our other liquid products may be mixed with any fruit or vegetable juice of your choice.
An all-natural product is one in which there are no synthetic or chemical additives included. Our base mineral product is 100% natural as it is harvested. Youngevity does not use any synthetic additives, because it’s just not needed. Why take something as pure as Majestic Earth and corrupt it? This is the common practice of a lot of "natural" products on the market; check the tables and you will be surprised by what some companies are getting away with. Some companies believe that petroleum is a natural ingredient and consider paint to be colloidal.
Generally since our products contain nothing but natural nutrients, there is no interaction with most medications. They are adaptagens, which means the Majestic Earth minerals won't interfere with any other supplemental or therapeutic program. Instead, they assist any and all diets, including medication or herbs to work faster and more efficiently.
People take the Majestic Earth because they know their body needs something else. But you also have the right to feel a difference.
