Pros: Best bet to maintain healthy levels of nutrients in the system. Better than a pill.
Cons: Since the minerals are readily absorbed, talk with your doc to avoid overconsumption.
The Bottom Line: Buy it. I swear so heartily by colloidal minerals that I plan to buy a bottle from these guys today. Stay healthy and feel good.

Back in 1997, I was creating a new Spanish Department for a music distribution company in Tennessee. As usual, I was working 10-12 hour days and still thinking about work even when I was off. My mind has always wanted to do more than my body could handle and I had been perpetually sick since I moved to California in 1985. (Am I giving away my age???) It was hard to finally get well and then end up sick a week and a half later. While working on signing new talent, I lost my voice and spent a week on the MIA list. My artists were upset and worried for me. They offered a lot of traditional Mexican remedies but then there was one guy… He turned me on to colloidal minerals. He said that since he and his son started taking it, they had not been sick a day for the past two years.
Well, that's too good to be true, right? Still, even if he was exaggerating, certainly trying something would be better than doing nothing. Since I was feeling better, I didn't act but, sure enough, I was sick again the next week. Being from the desert originally, I have to say that having a nose full of mucus and sinus pressure that pushed through my forehead and into my ears while the air is frightening cold and snow is falling is really, really annoying. Ever since Tavist-D got banned for its epinephrine, nothing put a dent in my sinuses! So, I schlepped off to the health food store and bought a bottle of colloidal minerals. Yes, they worked like gangbusters.
The theory around colloidal minerals goes like this: Traditionally we get our nutrients from the food we eat. However, we eat less fresh vegetables and fruit. On top of that, the ones we do eat have been tilled in the same soil with the minimal crop rotation. That soil is so depleted of natural minerals that the fresh fruits and veggies are not anywhere near as potent as they were a hundred years ago. So, then we try to get these minerals by taking a daily vitamin or supplement. Yet those are not easily digested and most of the nutrients pass before they can be absorbed into the body.
That leads us to colloidal minerals. The story is that bottling the minerals originally came as an idea when one noticed the health benefits of drinking mountain spring water. It was noted that the water carried trace minerals. Because the minerals were much smaller and transmitted in liquid form, they were readily absorbed through the cell walls. This feature has a rapid impact on boosting the immune system as well as general functioning.
So, how did I fair taking the minerals when I was already heavily sick and going through tissues at an alarming rate? I took about an ounce every hour with some orange juice. I went to work late because my fever was so high and I assumed I wouldn’t last long. To my surprise, instead of feeling run down and even sicker at the end of the day, the constant boost from the minerals left me feeling healthier than when I came in. I followed the same regime the next day and went home 100% symptom free. For me, those results were AMAZING. When I got sick, it had ALWAYS lasted a week and a half. I was miserable the whole time and used up all the toilet paper, Kleenex and paper towels in the house before the illness passed. But with the colloidal minerals, I was so hearty and well that I only endured one night of sleeping among mounds of snotty tissues.
Afterwards, I swore by them. I took an ounce (like a shot) every morning. I firmly stuck to this new routine and went 5 months without illness. Then I ran out of the minerals and, lazily, didn’t pick up a new bottle. I got sick again, for a week and a half again. Suffice it to say that I always made certain I had extra colloidal minerals on stock since then. Actually, after taking them daily for two years, I found that my immune system had become so hearty that I didn’t even need to take them daily. (Although I readily admit I feel more energetic and vibrant with them than without.)
I have tried Airborne. {shrug} It’s good but it doesn’t hold a candle to the right bottle of colloidal minerals. Personally, I found it difficult to absorb the minerals derived from plant extracts, but the minerals that were broken down into microscopic particles are potent and quickly absorbed by my body. I have taken two prenatal vitamins a day and had greater benefits from one ounce of colloidal minerals. This stuff is truly amazing.
So, I pass on to you the knowledge that was passed on to me. If you really want to avoid getting ill, strengthen your body with an ounce or two of minerals every morning. Hey, it tastes great in juice, coffee or tea. Pop some in you morning Starbucks! ;)
