An Introduction to Ionic Minerals
by Dr. J.K. Poulsen, M.D.
The foundation for the unique ionic mineral formula, is a synergistic combination of prehistoric (Ancient) plant derived minerals, preserved and protected by mother nature for thousands of years – over 70 minerals, essential and trace minerals. Apart from oxygen and pure water, minerals are the most vital and important nutrients in the human body, responsible for thousands of metabolic and life sustaining functions. Minerals are necessary for antioxidant activity, anabolic and catabolic, metabolism, growth function, aiding digestion, absorption and assimilation of foods, elimination, production of critical enzymes, rejuvenation and regeneration of cells, strengthening of the immune system, in fact all bodily functions. Health professionals consistently emphasize the importance of minerals, especially bio-available trace minerals as priority over vitamins, in importance to human life. Ionic minerals are bioavaila6le foods in a colloidal configuration. There are no man made, synthesized additives, artificial chemicals, yeast or binders. According to Raymond Todd, M.D., a published author and lecturer, “Colloidal minerals are more rapidly assimilated bythe body than are elemental minerals.” (from Rocks)According to Raymond B. Walton, M.D., “Today we live in a polluted world, from the air, water, and even the foods we eat. The human body is constantly exposed to stress, poor nutrition, alcohol, smoking and drugs. Over a period of time, these toxins tear down the body defenses causing “Free Radicals;” making the immune system susceptible to sickness, infections and disease.”
Scientists, researchers, and even the U.S. Government publicly declared,”Poor Nutrition, Mineral Deficiencies, and “Free Radical” damage are responsible for many of the degenerative diseases confronting our society today.”
Isagenix offers organic minerals in a colloidal form including silica, boron, chromium, selenium, iron and iodine, that are man made synthetics or chelates from rocks.Ionic represents a scientific breakthrough that is “years ahead” of all the so-called “natural” minerals, which rely on laboratory processes to refine, process and manufacture their supplements.The minerals used in Isagenix represent an advanced breakthrough that harnesses nature’s life processes to harvest plant grown minerals.Today, we have the world’s best and most decorated scientists living in America. They evaluate and analyze anything and everything. They have determined precisely the nutritional values of vegetables, fruits, flowers and trees for protein, carbohydrates, fat, amino acids, vitamins and minerals. Invariably the conclusion is always the same; Plants, from various parts of the country are depleted in many of these nutritional factors, especially minerals and trace minerals. This is due to a polluted environment of soils deficient in minerals, over fanning, as well as acid rain and chemically filled air. What is really amazing to me is that these bright scientists have not and cannot duplicate a single seed similar to those found in nature. No man made seed has ever sprouted or produced another plant. Scientists and health professionals are amazed with the ionic mineral formula, not only from the standpoint of the active minerals and where the originated from but, also the synergy and completeness of the mineral combination, according to Dr. Raymond Todd , M.D., “Resolves the absorption problem.” Millions of years ago the earth was unpolluted and huge dinosaurs thrived. Most of these animals weighed many tons; in fact, a Brontosaurus weighed as much as 70 tons. It is amazing how this huge, animal could become so large with such a very small mouth. This observation has amazed scientists for years. Scientists have concluded that the organic vegetation of the time was immensely rich in minerals, trace minerals and nutrients that enabled these dinosaurs to thrive and become as big as they were. The plants and trees were in optimum health, producing healthy foliage that contained unbelievable amounts of potent minerals.
Let’s summarize ionic minerals.
- They represent a unique formula of blended organic minerals found within harvested prehistoric plants.
- Ounce for ounce, Ionic Minerals gives you many times the potency of other minerals due to the unique, organic synergistic combination and biochemical balance.
- The effective absorption of Ionic minerals is due to the poly-colloidal nature of them.
- The unique process of extraction and manufacture is as unique as the product itself.
- They are not exposed to antagonistic material such as yeast, toxic pesticides, herbicides, chemicals, colorings, enhancers or synthetic binders.
- They are not exposed to the stresses created by refined minerals, which frequently interfere with one another. Ionic Minerals are recognized by the body as whole foods, not foreign substances. This is why it is possible to ingest them on an empty stomach.
- They are not exposed to the extra, biochemical stress caused by the task of digesting ground up rock (minerals) in the other tablet formulas. Nature has already done that for you quite efficiently through the natural blend.
Why do you need ionic minerals?
Stress is constantly attacking the body. Today foods contain preservatives, enhancers, pesticides, and many other disease causing chemicals. According to National Geographic, man puts 2.5 billion tons of pollutants into the air every year. Water pollution is dangerously high. Pollution in the home, office, cars and exposure to chemical compounds in pharmaceutical drugs are presumably affecting all aspects of human health.
The U.S.D.A. has been quoted “Half of all Americans are nutrient deficient and 97% of all Americans are mineral deficient.”The body is approximately 90% water and minerals. If the body consumes various minerals but not in biochemical harmony, even lacking one or two, the body could be confronted with a mineral deficiency, which can ultimately lead to ill health. Twoworld famous research Doctors, Dr. Robert McCarrison and Dr. Weston Price, have studied the health and longevity of different populations throughout the world. They discovered cultures like the Hunzas, and at age 100 were extremely active, energetic, smart, alert, appeared in overall good health and were free of debilitating diseases. Both those doctors concluded that this was a result of eating non-refined botanical foods, rich in organic, naturally occurring minerals. They also discovered they were drinking pure, mineral rich water.
Youcannot attempt to control the entire environment, reduce all of your stress, or reverse or change your eating habits of a lifetime, but you can indeed help that with Ionic minerals. Many of you probably have heard of the astonishing article written in the New York Times in May 1933. It told of a great teacher, philosopher, and perhaps the greatest herbalist the world has ever known. His name was Li Chung Yun. What made this man world famous was not the above mentioned attributes, but the fact that this man died in 1933 at the ripe old age of 256.
Call it unbelievable, call it hogwash, call it whatever you like, but the evidence is overwhelming. His date of birth was confined at 1677 by the Chinese government. He taught as a fully qualified professor at a major Chinese University until he was 200 years old. When he died he still had, believe it or not, his own teeth and his own natural hair. He outlived 23 wives and was living with his 24th when he died. Professor Li Chung Yun’s philosophy was sleep, relaxation, and detoxification of the blood with herbal tonics rich in trace minerals, which he formulated. Many of Professor Li’s formulas included naturally occurring Proanthocyanadins.
Ionic minerals may be your solution to a long and healthy life.
Adelle Davis said, “Every day you do one of two things: build health or produce disease in yourself.”
Franklin Roosevelt said, “A healthy nation depends on the knowledge of what feeds it.”
Ionic Minerals are an effective mineral supplement that is formulated to helpyou enhance your well being and to help you feel better about yourself. It was never intended to be a cure for anything, in fact,
Ionic Minerals are the purest, most remarkable, and absolutely the most unique mineral supplement on the market today.

after reading this very encouraging article i want to know whether ionic minerals can be taken while a person is under medication?
