Few people are aware that your brain uses minerals as a
fuel. It
weights only 3% of your body weight, but uses 25% (on average) of your oxygen
and nutrients. Imagine what it might use under stress!
To prove the point, most of you will recall the enormous feeling of tiredness that you will have experienced after an emotionally stressful event!
Another point of interest: You brain uses 300,000 enzymes to think / correlate and remember / store information. Enzymes are made from MINERALS and protein, in about a 50:50 ratio. It is not protein that our diets are deficient in!
For some, your job is the cause of this 'brain drain'. In this case the depletion of minerals is relentless and can result in eventual burn out. In-Sync minerals are incredibly effective in increasing your tolerance of stress (don't tell your boss) and improving your feeling of calmness.
There is nothing in life where having a quick brain
and a good memory is not a huge advantage. Even an athlete needs to be
mentally 'quick' as well as physically 'on top'! Tennis players have
remarked on the noticeable improvement of hand-eye co-ordination, while
taking In-Sync minerals.
One mineral, selenium, is particularly involved in mood management.
It is no coincidence that both Finland and New Zealand sit at the top of
the table for suicide statistics and the bottom of the table for natural
intake of dietary selenium. In-Sync minerals contains a generous
dose of selenium.
"It is not commonly known that in the absence of minerals, vitamins
have no function. Lacking vitamins, our system can make use of the
minerals, but lacking minerals, the vitamin is useless." The human
body can manufacture some vitamins, (B in the intestinal tract, D from
sunshine) but the body cannot manufacture its own minerals - they must
be supplied by food and water. When in adequate amounts, they make a
strong healthy mind and body. When they are lacking, disease sets in…

A very easy and simple way to check your overall health is to test the
pH of your saliva and urine. pH testing papers can be found in some
pharmacies. This test shows if your body fluids are either acidic,
alkaline or within an acceptable range. All regulatory systems in the
body are constantly working to keep the correct balance in the body. The
acid-alkaline balance regulates ones breathing, circulation, digestion,
eliminations, hormonal production, immunity and much more.
Pure water is neutral with a pH balance of 7.0. Average pH ranges of
saliva and urine is 6.0 - 6.8. Anything below pH 6.3 would be too acidic
and above 6.8 is too alkaline.
