hey guys in this video we’re going to talk  about the missing nutrients okay what are  

the missing nutrients trace minerals what are  tracing those trace minerals are those minerals  

needed in much smaller amounts usually below 100  milligrams okay so that would be like chromium  

zinc copper selenium iodine cobalt versus  other minerals you need in large amounts  

like potassium calcium magnesium you need those  in much larger amounts so what do trace minerals  

do they basically help you make proteins work  in your body okay so in order to make hair now  

skin hormones tendons ligaments discs bone and  muscle you need trace minerals and there’s a  

lot of deficiencies that can occur with like even  chromium you can start having a blood sugar issue  

chromium house blood sugars zinc is very very  important in your immune system and also putting  

viruses back in remission and even skin issues  preventing skin issues copper very important in  

adrenal health hormone health cortisol stress  hormone selenium is really good for the liver  

in the detoxification process iodine I think  you might need that for the thyroid cobalt for  

the blood as in building b12 okay and so the type  of minerals that I recommend our plant base trace  

minerals okay why because plant based trace  minerals are 15,000 times smaller then other  

minerals like it’s called elemental or salt based  minerals like you wouldn’t necessarily want to go  

into the dirt and take a spoonful of dirt and  consume that that would be elemental normally  

what happens is the plant absorbs the mineral  from the earth pulls it and converts it into a  

plant-based mineral where you can consume it but  if you actually buy minerals at the store like  

calcium carbonate and some of these other minerals  that they’re selling they’re not plant based their  

elemental so that’s why you probably a hard  time absorbing them this is 100% absorbed this  

is probably if you’re lucky for a 5% absorbed  so it has to do if you ever taken a chemistry  

class it has to do it the way the minerals are  bound up there’s certain bonds that connect  

them plant-based minerals have covalent bonds  easy to break elemental have ionic bonds really  

hard to break up so they’re not well absorbed  you also need a very acidic stomach to absorb  

minerals in general so if you have a heartburn  chances are you don’t have enough acid to pull  

it in and as you age you lose your stomach acid  so a little bit about cider vinegar with water  

each day will help you absorb minerals in general  but anyway trace minerals provide the cofactors  

for enzymes that actually again help build up  the body tissue and problem with especially in  

America in other countries to the soils are so  processed and they’re not replenished with trace  

minerals that you’re actually missing on trace  minerals in our soils so if a plant is grown on  

soil it doesn’t have the trace mineral it’s not  going to get the trace mineral it has to come  

from somewhere so you’re consuming food which  is nutrient deficient okay now if you consume  

food like on a volcanic soils where they used to  have volcanoes like Hawaii the Caribbean islands  

Africa South America different countries and even  places in America Philadelphia and Sylvania were  

even in Wisconsin where they had the kettle  rain all the glaciers that came through and  

deposited all these minerals you have a lot of  farmland it’s a very very nutrient rich okay  

but in other areas where you’re getting food  you’re getting depletion of these minerals so  

one of the things that you may want to do is get a  supplement others the one that I use is that this  

right here is called trace minerals at the plant  base this is basically 79 million years old and  

Jurassic period which is about hundred forty five  million years at the end of that there was a lot  

of prehistoric vegetation that was preserved in  the earth so this is basically prehistoric plant  

life liquefied you would take a dropper full a  day in some water it doesn’t taste like anything  

and just to start getting your minerals and it’s  a 100 percent absorbed and it has over 70 trace  

minerals okay okay so thanks for watching and  put your comments below hey you probably already
