Klamath Blue Green Algae is Nutritionally Balanced by Nature

Blue Green Algae is One of the Most Nutrient Dense Foods on the Planet. This Nutrition Packed Concentrated Food is a Fast, Efficient and Energizing Way to Improve Your Health.

"Why does Aphanizomenon flos-aquae, a blue green algae – small and simple as it seems to be – contain more micronutrients than any other known food?...Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (Klamath Blue Green Algae) cells are about 20 to 30 times smaller than the cells within the food we usually eat. Because of this AFA contains 20 to 30 times the membrane surface area." (Abrams K. Algae to the Rescue, Logan House, 1996:61)

"Typically, less than half of the dry weight of plants and animals has nutritional value." (Pirt S. Biochemical Society Trans. 1980; 8:479 cited by Aaronson and Dubinsky. Mass production of microalgae. Experientia, 1982; 43(suppl):42.)

Refined dietary supplements may contain a high percentage of a nutrient, but if the body cannot absorb it, it's of no use and can even be detrimental?

… isolated beta carotene, sold as a supplement on its own or in multivitamin formulas, does not provide the same benefits. CARET (Carotenoid and Retinol Efficacy Trial) a large-scale study found that synthetic beta carotene supplements were correlated with "increased," not decreased morbidity and mortality from cancer. (Omenn G et al. Risk factors for lung cancer and for intervention effects in CARET, the Beta-Carotene and Retinol Efficacy Trial. Journal of the National Cancer Institute, November 1996; 88(21):1550-9.)

Klamath Blue Green Algae's microscopic size and soft cell wall is comprised of a gluco-lipo-protein complex, which is exactly what the body needs to absorb it. This makes its balanced nutrients easily digested and absorbed by the body.

An isolated nutrient, usually cannot be assimilated without the help of other symbiotic nutrients. It's the synergistic effect of many different nutrients in balance that affects the rate of assimilation. Algae has one of the most complete and balanced nutritional profiles of any food. Virtually, the entire organism is nutritious, which isn't a surprise since vast numbers of creatures rely on algae for almost all their nutritional requirements.

The minerals in AFA are easy to assimilate because they are bonded to the amino acids nature intended. Natural sources of minerals do not need to be highly concentrated to have a positive effect on health. They are naturally chelated, which supports maximum absorption.

"Almost 98 percent of the patients I see in my clinical practice are deficient in one or more minerals or vitamins. Yet our health is dependent on complete availability and absorption of nutrients in a form that our bodies can utilize. Even a deficiency in just one nutrient can cause a chain reaction, triggering deficiencies in many other nutrients. There are many biochemical reasons for poor nutrient absorption which may include (1) a sluggish body, (2) excess of unhealthy mucus along the walls of the small intestines, (3) nutrient-deficient foods, (4) malfunctioning digestive system. It is possible that a person may consistently take vitamin or mineral supplement pills, with little or no recognized benefit if the bodies biochemical absorption system fails to function properly. Unlike supplement pills and unlike most other foods, the AFA algae has a greater than 90 percent assimilation rate. This means that the algae, recognized by the body as a food, absorbs with unsurpassed efficiency and rapidity when com- pared to most other natural or perhaps unnatural substances. Thus, even if a person's internal absorption system is malfunctioning, the algae is so biologically assimilable that tangible benefits can still be obtained nonetheless. For these reasons, the wild blue-green algae could play a major role in wiping out malnutrition. For example, an acclaimed study on severely mal-nourished children, under the auspices of the Central American University (1994), found that 79 percent of these subjects no longer exhibited symptoms of malnutrition after just six months on the algae." THE BOOK MIRACLE SUPERFOOD: WILD BLUE GREEN ALGAE, Gillian McKeith, Ph.D

Note: As a rule with age, assimilation of nutrients becomes more difficult.

Gram for Gram Microalgae Contains the Most Nutrients on Earth

Blue Green Algae contains a full spectrum of vitamins, unusually complete for any single food. But, this is not a surprise. Organisms and creatures at the bottom of the food chain through to the largest mammals, whales, rely on algae's complete nutritional profile to sustain them. It's rich in B Vitamins, and contains the highest vegetable source of Vitamin B-12 and Beta Carotene. Algae is also the primary source of Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs.) Being first on the nutritional ladder, algae are usually the lowest in contaminants, pesticides, and heavy metals.

The two foods known that come closest to the optimum balance of complete amino acids are chicken eggs and AFA. When the amino acids are in balance it supports smooth assimilation and ultimately harmony in the body.

AFA has 12 vitamins, 27 naturally occurring or essential minerals, and 11 pigments some of which are precursor to other vitamins, enzymes and co-enzymes. Along with beta-carotene, AFA also contains bioflavonoids, RNA, superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione, selenium, and cysteine, making AFA one of the highest known sources of naturally occurring anti-oxidants or free radical scavengers.

"Beta-carotene is the most potent free radical neutralizer or scavenger known today. Beta carotene appears to block the process by which a normal cell can turn malignant." Dr. Charles Simone, physician and author of Cancer and Nutrition (McGraw-Hill, 1983)

Blue Green Algae Contains one of the Highest Percentages of Protein, B12 and Chlorophyll on the Planet

The most amazing feature of blue green algae is its high usable protein, which ranges from 50-70%. This is a much greater percentage than even the choicest parts of any plant or animal. Because of its less complex polypeptide chains, Klamath Blue Green Algae, also known as AFA is much easier to digest than popular plant or animal protein.

Microalgae are a primary source of unsaturated fatty acids. Even cold water fish like salmon consume micro-algae to acquire Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) two relatively rare and valuable fatty acids. These fatty acids are known to help many areas of the neurological as well as to lower inflammation.

AFA blue green algae contains all eight essential amino acids and both semi-essential amino acids. Most importantly, the essential amino acid profile of AFA is virtually identical to that required by the human body.

This is nutrition in its simplest form. Blue green algae is packed with beta-carotene and B-Complex, biologically active vitamins, enzymes, chlorophyll, fatty acids, neuropeptide precursors (peptides are joined amino acids), lipids (fats), carbohydrates, minerals, trace minerals, pigments and other essential growth factors.

Algae Were the First Life Forms on Earth

Klamath Blue Green Algae is in the class: cyano-bacteria. The scientific term APHANIZOMENON (genus) and FLOS-AQUAE (species) are actually zoological terms of classification that literally mean "invisible living flower of water" in Greek.

Like a string of pearls AFA cells have a gelatinous cell wall surrounding the chloroplast and a protoplast DNA container.

AFA, Aphanizomenon Flos Aquae, contains glyco-proteins, vitamins, minerals, simple carbohydrates, lipids and biologically active enzymes.

Exhibiting the characteristics of both plants and animals, algae are in a class by themselves cyanobacteria. If it wasn't for algae, there would be no other life on earth. All other life has its origins from algae.

Through the prolific manufacturing of proteins and sugars, algae provided the nutritional foundation for the planet's evolving ecosystem.

Oxygen was created as a bi-product of the life processes of algae. Even today, algae produce over 70% of all the oxygen on our planet.

For thousands of years algae has been a staple food in the diets of people worldwide from the Americas to Asia. History has shown some cultures relied on algae to supply up to 25% of their total diets. Even today, edible blue green alga are used worldwide as a nutrient-dense food.

"African and American natives recognized the value of including blue green algae in their diet and stored dried algae for year-round use and trade." Gitte Jensen, PhD

"Certified Organic" Algae from Pristine Upper Klamath Lake in Southern Oregon, USA

Klamath Blue Green Algae is a wild, fresh water algae growing in natural pristine abundance in Upper Klamath Lake. The precipitation that falls on Southern Oregon's Cascade Mountains washes tons of mineral-rich volcanic soil into this alkaline lake annually. The combination of mineral-rich water, clean air, and high intensity sunlight make the unique ecosystem of Upper Klamath Lake the most perfect growth medium for AFA.

Upper Klamath Lake located 4,100 feet above sea level is far from any large cities that could cause pollutants to enter the water. The lake is surrounded by the Cascade Mountains. Much of the water that empties into Upper Klamath Lake comes from 6,176 foot high, and 1936 foot deep Crater Lake, a pristine self-contained lake that's fed by abundant snow fall.

This algae, unlike cultivated algae, is a naturally occurring perennial. Its survival depends on the heartiest strain reproducing itself. It has the uncanny ability to communicate environmental and other conditions to each strand in the bloom. Tests have shown AFA can provide significant neurological benefits to humans.

"Colonies of AFA exhibit intelligence by communicating between cells with neuropeptides; learning and adapting to changes in environment." (Barry, W. T, 1977).

The Klamath Blue Green algae powder through Power Organics is certified organic by Oregon Tilth, an organic certifying agency.

Wild Harvesting of Klamath Blue Green Algae

During summer months, the algae reproduce itself every four days, creating a massive bloom of up to 200 million pounds annually.

The algae fresh harvested from the lake is screened to remove debris and excess water. When necessary it is fresh micro-filtered to assures that it's free of potential contaminants, checked visually for microcystin, then flash frozen and stored at -40º F until processing. It's dried using our proprietary low temperature drying method called Bio-Active Dehydration™. (Link to Algae Drying Page on KBG site)

After drying, Klamath Blue Green Algae is thoroughly laboratory tested for microcystin, yeast, mold, coliforms, heavy metals and other contaminants.

From the beginning of time the survival of algae was threatened by a variety of severe earth changes. Algae overcame them, and thrived to become the parent of all plants and animals on earth. Thousands of life forms today rely on algae's complete nutritional profile for all of their dietary needs.

It's no wonder the human body reacts so positively to this simple complete and highly absorbable food. People who consume blue green algae have a variety of things to say about it. But many say they simply feel much better, have more energy, feel lighter, have less illness, fewer doctor visits, and enjoy an elevated mood.

"These micro-algae contain an astounding array of nutritional elements: vitamins, macrominerals, trace minerals, essential fatty acids, protein, nucleic acids (RNA and DNA), chlorophyll, and a vast spectrum of phytochemicals. They are thought to contain every nutrient required by the human body. Yes, you could literally live off these micro-algae. You wouldn't need to eat much, either, since they are so nutritionally dense." Superfoods for Optimum Health Chlorella and Spirulina, by Mike Adams (Truth Publishing)

These nutrients are supplied in almost the perfect ratio needed by the human body. The vast majority of Americans suffer from nutritional deficiencies in magnesium, zinc, calcium, the B Vitamins and Omega-3 fatty acids. All these nutrients are in their natural form in blue green algae. This makes them far more absorbable by your body, because they are already chelated and combined with other nutrients that work together for maximum absorption. Unlike vitamin supplements, you don't have to worry about the dosage either, because this algae is food in its natural form, no more dangerous than eating broccoli.

"The only truly natural vitamins are those that come from foods. They are available in nutritional supplements as highly nutritious, concentrated foods; powdered concentrates of foods and herbs with the moisture removed; and an isolated component of a food. Sources of these include…wheat-grass juice, freshwater algae (blue-green algae, chlorella, spirulina), sea vegetables such as kelp, enzymes, wheat-germ oil, and minerals from ancient sea, clay, or vegetation beds." Home Safe Home by Debra Lynn Dadd

POWER 3 is a great way to satisfy dietary protein requirement

The protein in POWER 3 is a glycol-protein, which is just what your body needs to assimilate protein directly into your system. POWER 3 contains about 60% of this high quality protein. It's a complete protein, because it contains all eight essential amino acids. POWER 3 can be used by vegetarians to replace or supplement a high percentage of their vegetable protein requirements. These proteins can be taken in much lower quantities since algae is assimilated into the body more completely.

"In the developed countries where nutrient starvation takes place as a result of excessive refined food, intoxicants, and a glut of animal products, micro-algae such as spirulina, wild blue-green (Aphanizomenon flos-aquae), and chlorella, used in conjunction with unrefined vegetable foods, are helpful in healing the many prevalent disorders of the nerves and brain." Healing With Whole Foods by Paul Pritchard

Natural weight loss occurs when the body is supplied with the nutrients it craves

If the body is satiated it stops looking for other sources of sustenance. Micro-algae are known to reduce the craving for sweets and carbohydrates. But, how it does it is not known.

Micro-algae satisfy:
• Magnesium – reduces cravings for chocolate sweets
• Protein – high quality protein in this superfood blocks the hypoglycemic appetite craving
• Vitamins – When more nutrition is supplied readily to the body it quiets hunger signals.

A malfunctioning endocrine system results in excess insulin distribution causing strong cravings, which are hard to ignore. These cravings can be dramatically reduced when the body receives the nutrients it seeks. If a diet of refined foods, hydrogenated oils, sugar, and more is continued out of habit, the body will not benefit as much as it would if these foods were eliminated or reduced.

The key to weight loss is to change your diet to one of whole natural foods and away from refined foods. When you add POWER 3's endocrine balancing properties…the excess weight should fall off naturally.

If someone is serious about weight loss and their diet is changed to balanced whole foods in conjunction with regular exercise, there should be a noticeable reduction in excess body weight.

High acidity is a major problem in the typical North American diet

Meat is a major acidic food. Nearly all refined foods that are made with refined sugars, white rice and white flour are acidic as well. Soft drinks and most processed fruit drinks are quite acidic. These foods create a pH imbalance in the body and a depletion of bone mass. They are a major cause of Osteoporosis.

In order to try to stabilize and create a more alkaline state, the body pulls alkaline minerals like calcium out of the bones to neutralize the highly acidic foods consumed.

The algae in Power 3 detoxifies the body and helps to balance the acid level by neutralizing it and eliminating the excess.

Studies Show that Chlorella a green algae and blue green micro-algae prevent and possibly reverse cancer

"In 1990, a study on chlorella was performed at the Medical College of Virginia. Fifteen glioblastoma (brain tumors) patients were administered 20 grams of powdered chlorella and 150 ml of liquid chlorella, in some cases combined with standard chemotherapy and /or radiation therapy. There was a significant increase in health and immune status immediately, and a striking 40 percent two-year survival rate was reflected in follow-up studies. This is extremely rare for this type of tumor, which normally might yield a 10 percent survival rate after two years.

Blue green algal doesn't cure anything. Instead it helps fortify the body so it has the ammunition to fight off diseases…as it was designed to do from the beginning.

Power 3 is an Effective Heavy Metals and Radiation Detoxifier

We live in a small world. We all have heavy metals and are all affected by radiation especially since the disaster in Japan. The mucopolysaccharides in Chlorella bind with environment toxins and carry them safely out of the body.

"Many reports have come from Japanese research studies that followed the nuclear catastrophe resulting from atomic bombs that were dropped on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. In a report to the General Meetings of the Pharmaceutical Society of Japan on an early study in animals, Ichimura (1973) reported that chlorella (8 grams daily) increased elimination of cadmium: threefold in feces and sevenfold in urine. Other researchers from Japan showed the chlorella helped detoxify uranium and lead (Horikoshi et al. 1979). Chlorella has detoxification potential for similar compounds, such as dioxin and polychlorinated biphenyls. (PCBs are chemical compounds used in plastics, insulation, and flame retardants, with potential to cause cancer and liver damage.) Other research indicates that chlorella is useful in detoxification of high levels of mercury in the body caused by removal of mercury amalgam. Some dentists recommend chlorella to patients who are having mercury amalgams replaced (as well as to themselves and staff who can incur accidental exposure from day-to-day exposure to amalgam filling procedures)." Disease Prevention and Treatment, the Life Extension Foundation.

*Formerly Miracle Krystal Salt*

Of the 84 mineral elements found in the human body, 72 are believed to be essential ingredients of a healthy diet. Mineral Mountain Salt™, a whole natural crystal salt contains all 72 of these mineral elements. These minerals and trace elements are in almost the same proportions found in the human body, and are in the perfect crystal matrix and ultimate ionic form, which supports improved absorption by the body.

Whole crystal salt, the vital sacred food prized by ancient cultures, bears no resemblance to the sparkling white, free flowing, iodized sodium chloride most people use today.

Salt is not naturally white. Unrefined salt has a pinkish or grayish tint caused by the important minerals. Since modern times a chemical cleaning method purges salt at very high temperatures, removing the minerals considered "impurities." The result is pure white, sodium chloride. A few other chemicals are added to prevent caking so it pours easily. What's not understood is that pure sodium chloride no longer has the mineralizing and balancing effects of natural salt on the human body.

What was considered the foundation of life by our ancient ancestors became the foundation of disease and death.

We've all been told that diets high in sodium can increase the risk for high blood pressure, a condition that affects one in four Americans. High blood pressure is considered a "silent killer", because it produces no symptoms but can lead to serious health problems such as heart attack or stroke.

The minerals in crystal salt harmonize with our enzymes and bones, which are full of minerals. The body remembers how to balance itself so it can return to its natural state of health.

Crystal salt is harvested from the remains of ancient sea beds. When ancient oceans evaporated, they left behind massive amounts of salt, which slowly dried in the sun. The radial energy of the sun is one of the most potent forms of life force. The ancient Celts and Romans considered rock salt to be condensed sun energy.

Mineral Mountain Salt™ is over 250 million years old, which makes it completely free from modern environmental pollutants of any kind.

As the salt beds became part of the earth's crust, some of the areas were exposed to very high pressure and temperatures. Small portions of the salt formed into a crystalline structure. Crystallization is nature's way of storing life force. In Crystal salt, all the elements are incorporated into this crystalline structure.

Why are the Minerals in Whole Salt Important?

Christian Opitz, an internationally renowned biochemist and physicist from Germany feels,"the rediscovery of Crystal salt is one of the most important health discoveries of our time."

These minerals work together to help promote healthy bodily functions, unleash the body's natural healing power.

Modern agricultural methods today have depleted the minerals in the soil, which has reduced the mineral content in our food to the point where it's difficult to get enough minerals from food alone.

The Difference Between Refined and Unrefined Salt

Refined salt is brought down to two elements, sodium and chloride only two out of 72 elements essential for the human body. A lot of refined salts also contain toxic anti-caking agents that sometimes include unhealthy aluminum in a metallic form. Refined salt, imbalances the whole mineral metabolism in your body, which explains heart issues associated with too much table salt.

Why not Celtic Salt, Sea Salt or Rock Salt Instead?

Solar drying of salt, used in the production of Celtic salt, exposes the vast brine ponds and crystallizers to the atmosphere, bird life and other land-based animals. This inevitably makes the raw salt stockpile susceptible to atmospheric fallout and animal contamination. From a consumer's point of view, the main problems with Celtic or 'natural' sea salt are contamination and authenticity. Possible contamination is plain enough, however consistency in mineral and element constituents may be compromised. Why? The natural salt stockpiles are often washed to 'purify' and remove excess magnesium, which makes the salt whiter, cleaner and dryer. This process also removes other beneficial constituent elements.

Rock salt is like Sea Salt, because it does not have the crystalline formation of Mineral Mountain Salt™. This crystal salt is pure, and has been undisturbed for millions of years. The minerals in these other salts are not in a compound structure, which means the chemical elements and minerals are not connected. The body must work harder to process these salts. All the minerals in crystal salt are fully usable and are in their natural original structure because the minerals are all connected in a wonderful crystal structure.

Crystal matrixes are natures' preferred way of storing electrical energy, which is ultimately our body's way of producing the energy needed for a healthy metabolism.

Many sea salt companies say they are natural, yet they are still refining their salt!

"According to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), refined table salt creates an energetic imbalance in the body that we then crave to neutralize. Since refined "sugar" creates the opposite imbalance, TCM maintains that consuming table salt can increase sugar cravings. Instead of balancing one extreme with the opposite extreme, we can use crystallized salt to balance our energy field within a few minutes upon intake, as extensive studies in Europe have shown. The use of crystallized salt will greatly enhance the body's instincts towards eating natural foods rather than craving unhealthy stimulants like refined sugar. In my own practice I have observed many times how incorporating crystallized salt into one's diet resulted in an effortless change towards a more natural diet and lifestyle."Paul Pitchford, Healing with Whole Food.

The Amazing Taste and Benefits of Mineral Mountain Salt™

Peter Ferreira, a Biophysicist and the Director for the Institute for Biophysical Research serving Germany, Switzerland, Austria and the U.S., performed a study over a two year period on 400 people using Crystal Salt. During his lecture on September 8, 2001 "Water and Salt" he stated that Crystal Salt has many benefits. He found that whole Crystal Salt:

• Contains the full spectrum of elements that resonates with our enzymes and bones, and builds bone marrow.
• Adds extra electrons to the body, which satisfy free radical scavengers. Electrons attach to free radicals and eliminate their desire to steal them from other cells. Otherwise unchecked free radicals would contribute to hardening of the arteries and capillaries.
• Balances energy field.
• Offers entire spectrum of electrolytes that the body needs.
• Helps neutralize uric acid and isolated sodium chloride.
• Brine water made from whole Crystal Salt has been shown to increase the elimination of heavy metals through the stools.
• Reduces cravings for sweets.

Mineral Mountain Salt™ is pure and has been undisturbed for over 250 million years. The mine is inside a mountain in the Himalayans, at an altitude of 10,000 feet, and has been protected from chemical pollutants, like PCB's which are found everywhere, even in the Antarctic.

The Relationship Between Vitamins, Minerals and Health

According to Heinrich, there is a harmony between vitamins and minerals, with vitamins being nearly ineffective without minerals. Soil depletion is the only reason today's plants contain no more than 16 to 20 minerals on average, compared to more than 70 minerals millions of years ago.

Mineral Mountain Salt™ mineralizes your body with up to 72 minerals and elements not available in most modern diets.

Free Radical Damage is Considered the Single Most Significant Cause of Premature Aging and Degenerative Diseases.

A free radical is a molecule that is missing one or more electrons to be in a state of balance. Free radicals aggressively steal electrons from every source they can find. Cell membranes become rancid and dysfunctional when they lose electrons. The accumulated damage shows up as signs of premature aging and virtually every disease known to medicine. Antioxidants are nature's way to minimize this ongoing damage.

Antioxidants neutralize free radicals and the damage they cause by freely giving them spare electrons. This is one of the benefits of electrical energy to maintain health and youthfulness. The electrically charged ionic particles in Crystal salt are carried by the bodily fluids, and can neutralize free radicals anywhere in the entire body. There are many fine antioxidants like Vitamin C and E, but, they only protect blood vessels and the extra cellular fluids. They do little inside the cell. Selenium works well in the blood and in the brain. Pure whole Crystal Salt is the ultimate antioxidant, because of its ability to neutralize free radicals anywhere in the body.

Mineral Mountain Salt™ Test Results Show at Least 74 Minerals and Elements in Our Whole Crystal Salt.

Christian Opitz, Nutritional Biochemist believes,"Modern agriculture has depleted the minerals in our soil to a point that 'commercially' – grown foods simply don't supply the minerals and trace elements we need to be truly alive. We can survive on mineral deficient diets, but we cannot really thrive. Crystal Salt is a perfect answer to that problem, because it is not a man-grown food, and is completely uninfluenced by modern technology. The balance of minerals and trace elements in the most absorbable form possible makes Crystal Salt one of the most important ingredients of a truly healthy lifestyle. Everything else we do for our health such as eating whole foods or exercising becomes more effective once we get the minerals and trace elements we need from Crystal Salt."

The prestigious Frezenius Institute in Europe analyzed our Mineral Mountain Salt™, formerly Miracle Krystal Salt™ and discovered the amazing array of trace minerals and elements that are beneficial to the body Some of these important elements are Calcium and Magnesium.

According to a study performed in Rotterdam, Netherlands with 100 men and women between the ages of 55-75 with mild to moderate hypertension, when common salt was replaced with high mineral salt high in magnesium and potassium, a reduction in blood pressure occurred that was equivalent to blood pressure reducing drugs. (British Medical Journal, 1994; 301:436-40)

Magnesium Deficiency is the Root Cause of Many Diseases.

The naturally occurring Magnesium in our Crystal Salt is needed to stimulate white blood cell activity, which are key cells in fighting off illness. Magnesium in the Crystal Salt supports the action of vitamins and plays a role in glucose and phosphor calcium metabolism.

Consuming too many grains and vegetables tainted by pesticides and unnatural fertilizers filled with chemicals can cause lack of Magnesium in the body. Eating too many white bread products and/or refined grains can also cause such a deficiency. Magnesium and other important nutrients are actually removed in the sifting and polishing of rice and breads. In fact, due to the latter processes, the magnesium can be reduced as much as 80%!!

People can also become deficient in magnesium by consuming refined table salt. This kind of salt contains no Magnesium or less the .03%.

Mineral Mountain Salt™ has many forms of Magnesium including Magnesium Chloride, Magnesium Sulfate, and Magnesium Bromide. These forms of Magnesium actually dissolve extra sodium that the body does not need. This is one of the reasons blood pressure is actually decreased by the intake of Mineral Mountain Salt™.

Mineral Mountain Salts™ minerals are intact in a crystalline structure, so it makes minerals like Calcium and Magnesium easy for your body to absorb. If you don't get enough useable calcium from the food you eat, and /or supplements like the calcium in Crystal Salt, your body automatically takes calcium you need for body functions from your bones. If not checked with useable calcium, it leads to the crippling bone disease called "Osteoporosis."

"Calcium Deficiency is the universal property of all cancer cells." (Calcium in Biological Systems, Volume 1, 1985, CRD Press Inc.)

Too Much Acid in the Body is Dangerous. It Weakens all Body Systems. Mineral Mountain Salt™ Balances These Ratios.

If you are overly acidic Mineral Mountain Salt™ helps you to alkalize very quickly because it is high in negative ions. Negative ions are alkaline forming. If you are overly alkaline, which is rare, it helps to re-balance your minerals because over alkalinity is simply an imbalance in the mineral metabolism in the body. Mineral Mountain Salt™ contains a balanced spectrum of up to 84 minerals and trace elements.

Unfortunately, too much acid is very common. The concept of acid / alkaline imbalance as the cause of disease is not new. In 1933 a New York doctor named William Howard Hay published a ground-breaking book,A New Health Era.

It is important to understand that we are not talking about stomach acid or the pH of the stomach. We are talking about the pH of the body's fluids and tissues which is an entirely different matter.

The body has an acid-alkaline (or acid-base) ratio called the pH which is a balance between positively charges ions (acid-forming) and negatively charged ions (alkaline-forming.) The body continually strives to balance pH. When this balance is compromised many problems can occur.

What Causes the Body to be Acidic?

The reason acidosis is more common in our society is mostly due to the typical American diet, which is far too high in acid-producing animal products like meat, eggs and dairy, and far too low in alkaline-producing foods like fresh vegetables.

Mild acidosis can cause such problems as:

• Cardiovascular damage, including the constriction of blood vessels and the reduction of oxygen.
• Weight gain, obesity and diabetes.
• Bladder and kidney conditions, including kidney stones.
• Immune deficiency.
• Acceleration of free radical damage, possibly contributing to cancerous mutations.
• Premature aging.
• Osteoporosis; weak, brittle bones, hip fractures and bone spurs.
• Joint pain, aching muscles and lactic acid buildup.
• Low energy and chronic fatigue.

Mineral Mountain Salt™ is an Important Source of Electrolytes

All of the macro and trace minerals required for normal body function are present in Mineral Mountain Salt™ in a form that is easily absorbed by the body.

Consuming large amounts (mega-doses) of mineral supplements without medical supervision may have harmful (toxic) effects.

Electrolytes: Some minerals—especially the macro-minerals—are important as electrolytes. The body uses electrolytes to help regulate nerve and muscle function and to maintain acid-base balance and fluid balance.

To function normally, the body must keep fluid levels from varying too much in the areas of the body that contain fluid (called compartments). The three main compartments are

• Fluid within cells
• Fluid in the space around cells
• Blood

Electrolytes, particularly sodium, help the body maintain normal fluid levels in these compartments (called fluid balance), because how much fluid a compartment contains depends on the concentration of electrolytes in it. If the electrolyte concentration is high, fluid moves into that compartment. If the electrolyte concentration is low, fluid moves out of that compartment. To adjust fluid levels, the body can actively move electrolytes in or out of cells. Thus, having electrolytes in the right concentrations (called electrolyte balance) is important in maintaining fluid balance among the compartments.

The kidneys help maintain electrolyte concentrations by filtering electrolytes from blood, returning some electrolytes, and excreting any excess into the urine. Thus, the kidney help maintain a balance between daily consumption and excretion.

Mineral Mountain Salt™ will rebalance the minerals in your body, but to be effective it must be done in conjunction with diet changes to reduce the amount of acid forming foods such as meats.

Crystal Salt Facts:

• Crystal Salt is the highest grade of natural whole salt.

• Under an electron microscope, Mineral Mountain Salt™ has a perfect crystalline structure.

• Crystal Salt's many elements form a compound where each molecule is connected to the other, which is beneficial to our bodies. This allows the up to 84 elements to be in harmony with each other and adds to the Crystal Salt's balancing effect.

• Crystal Salt is immune to electromagnetic fields.

• No environmental pollutants, unlike sea salts.

• Our blood contains the same up to 84 elements as the salt brine solution made with Mineral Mountain Salt™.

• This salt is adaptive and will help the body return to a natural state of balance.

• There is no shelf life and no need for silica packets for clumping.

• Minerals and trace elements contained are present in ionic colloidal form, which means they are small enough to be absorbed through the cellular membrane without energy being expended for digestion.

Crystal Salt is salt in its wild form, with all its life force intact. By using Mineral Mountain Salt™, our bodies will return to their own original state of balance.
