Are Americans getting enough minerals?
While the American food system provides more nutrition than in many third-world countries, the U.S. food supply still leaves much to be desired and pales in comparison to that of other developed, first-world nations. For example, according to the Linus Pauling Institute, approximately 94.3% of the U.S. population is deficient in minerals.
Quoting the findings:
- “Specifically, 94.3% of the U.S. population do not meet the daily requirement for vitamin D, 88.5% for vitamin E, 52.2% for magnesium, 44.1% for calcium, 43.0% for vitamin A, and 38.9% for vitamin C. For the nutrients in which a requirement has not been set, 100% of the population had intakes lower than recommended for potassium, 91.7% for choline, and 66.9% for vitamin K.”
That’s just the tip of the iceberg in how mineral deficient the U.S. population has become.
- What Happens When Your Body is Mineral Deficient
If you do not get enough essential minerals every day, your body may experience concerning health problems. Mineral deficiency can lead to chronic diseases like some cancers, osteoporosis, and heart disease. Symptoms of mineral deficiency can include minor yet concerning problems, such as hair loss, brittle nails, fatigue, and difficulty concentrating.
And that’s not even a complete list. Mineral deficiency can also lead to issues with mental and developmental health. People may experience things like depression, anxiety, memory issues, and cognitive impairments.
There are also long-term repercussions of mineral deficiency. Some may experience diabetes or anemia. Others may develop impaired physical activity and stunted muscle function. Some may notice reduced appetite, poor night vision, or slowed wound healing.
Most concerning, people who do not get sufficient minerals are likely to experience significantly reduced immune function, making them much more likely to contract illnesses than those who get enough minerals in their daily diet.
Here is the critical point:
- Most Americans do not get enough minerals in their day-to-day diet, which is very concerning, as minerals are the spark of life and the human body cannot produce them on its own. The human body must obtain minerals from food and nutritional supplements or it will experience potentially very serious, long-term health issues.
- Shilajit: The Best Natural Mineral Boost on the Market
Immune Solution’s 100% Purified Shilajit is not only the best mineral on the market, but it is literally what your body needs to survive and to survive well.
According to Jackie Page, Immune Solution founder and owner and the creator behind the best mineral product available:
- “Your body requires minerals and nutrients to heal itself, and your body cannot produce minerals on its own. It has to get them from the environment. Furthermore, the minerals you are consuming must be of high quality. They must be held to the very highest standard.”
Jackie described her best-selling 100% Natural Purified Shilajit product as follows:
- “Shilajit is one of the world’s most nutrient-dense herbo-mineral supplements with the ability to maintain the dynamic equilibrium of energy metabolism in your body! It contains 85 types of minerals in their natural ionic form. The minerals in Shilajit are not similar to most market-available mineral supplements. The ionic form minerals in Shilajit have previously been absorbed by rich plant life and returned back to earth. As such, they can readily bond with water to be more easily distributed throughout the body and absorbed by the body’s cells. We offer only genuine, high-grade Himalayan Shilajit in its natural, pure, and most potent form. Our quality is unmatched throughout the world. We personally source, select, and import the raw fulvic acid-rich mineral resin from a remote, high-altitude region of India’s Himalayan mountains. This region is well-known by Ayurvedic practitioners to yield the most potent grade.”
- Five-Star Reviews for Immune Solution’s Health Supplements
After studying health and the human body for over 50 years, Jackie Page identified minerals as the single most significant nutrient the American population was missing, and a major reason for the health problems Americans are experiencing today. Because minerals are akin to the batteries of cells, when the human body becomes deficient in them, the body ceases to function properly, leading to problems.
Thankfully, Shilajit is the silver bullet solution to getting the body the minerals it needs, and Immune Solution customers have found this to be true time and time again. According to one customer:
- “I’m a customer of Immune Solution. I use the wheat grass daily and I love it. One day I contacted the company for an unrelated question and I ended up having a free health consultation with Jackie, the owner of immune solution. She recommended I take Shilajit and Bromelain. From the first day of taking the Shilajit I felt a difference in my energy, My overall health, And most importantly, my cravings. At times I Feel somewhat powerless over carbs and sugar cravings and the Shilajit altered that quite a bit. It makes me stronger against cravings and takes my mental energy to the next level. You do not need to take it for a week or two to feel the effect you feel the effect immediately. I LOVE IT! Shilajit in combination with Jackie’s Kamut Wheatgrass is a win-win. I can’t wait to try the Bromelain now!! I highly recommend giving Jackie a call and doing a free health consultation. Thank you, Jackie!”
