Consider your mineral bank account:
made any deposits lately?
When I asked our nutritional consultant Gerald Phillips if I could have some information on chromium theory, he graciously wrote me an e-mail that I can understand, even though I do not have a scientific bent: The theory behind GlucoChrom™ or any mineral supplement, relates to the mineral bank given us by our mothers at birth. This bank is to be drawn upon and restocked on a regular basis. When that is handled correctly, the mineral stock stays rather constant, since minerals are never destroyed. [Interesting side note: there are no new minerals since the time of Creation; nor are there any fewer.]
Each organ is supported by one or more minerals, and as long as there are minerals present, our organs function just fine. However, when minerals are depleted owing to being eliminated with waste products, and/or not being taken in via the diet, the organ needing the missing minerals begins to operate in an erratic fashion., e.g., the pancreas can "turn on" or "turn off" depending on the amount of chromium available. If the pancreas is not operating at an optimal level, one may experience low blood sugar, with fluctuations during the day, or a sleep problem. When one supplies adequate chromium on a daily basis via food or supplements at breakfast and lunch, the body can store some chromium and use it during the night.
The more refined foods one has eaten in one's life, the more chromium one has consumed in the body's having to process them. [Oops! Our bodies tattle on us, don't they?]
Replacing minerals is not done overnight. The rule for correcting a disorder is one month of correction for every year of the disorder. A related concept is that the body can function with few or no vitamins, but it cannot live without minerals. The quality of health will be very poor with a lack of vitamins, but life can continue. I've always wondered how those in refugee camps and concentration camps survived on cabbage soup or worse. Perhaps there were some minerals in their rations. But take minerals away and organs malfunction in short order. Obviously, minerals are very important to life.
