The Immune system plays a vital role at this time of year; a boost may help to fight colds and flu whilst avoiding viruses. Supplementation to our diet may be the answer, as well as having a healthy and well balanced diet.

Staying well for Winter

Dark long nights and cold do not help fight infection. Light is the fuel that helps cells protect the body’s immune system so seasonal changes make an important impact on how our body works. Heat is required to fight infection, its much harder to cope when temperatures are low.

Colloidal Minerals

The body requires fuel to function, that is nutrients, vitamins and minerals, amino acids and enzymes to regenerate, repair and reproduce damaged tissue. Many people rely on their intake of foods to provide these nutrients but today’s environment and food production lack many of the essential nutritional values.

We know the importance of vitamins but minerals play a very important role. Minerals provide the correct composition and balance of body fluids, for forming bone and blood, and for the maintenance of healthy nerve function.

Why we don’t get the right balance :

• Mineral depletion in the soil / environmental emissions
• Over cooking
• Stress
• Excess alcohol
• Smoking
• High protein diet
• Medication
• Tannic acid reduces pH level, found in tea, coffee, cola

Colloidal mineral supplements in liquid form offer a high degree of absorption and utilisation, with 76 major trace minerals present.

A positive approach to supplementation, diet and fitness will keep optimum health during the winter months. See the fruit and vegetable sections for foods to boost your system. Or for more information please follow this link.
