Point One: When excess carbon meets water in the atmosphere, it converts to carbolic acid. This is commonly referred to as acid rain. This acid rain leaches minerals do that they get washed below the root zone, out of reach of the roots of plants and trees. This means that our shallow rooted crops especially, are less mineralised
Point Two: Acidic fertilizers made from petrochemicals adds to this washing away of minerals. It melts the organic matter that stores the nutrients ready for plant uptake.
Point Three: Not many years ago, mineralised salt was one of the few and certainly one of the most effective, enhancers of food taste. Secondly before refrigeration, it was widely used to preserve food. Naturally dried sea salt particularly, contains all the minerals for life and well being. Not any more. Now it is just sodium chloride with added chemicals and so has been converted from a vital booster of health, to a cause of sickness.
Point Four: Sugar has had the same commercial degradation. Instead of it being a valuable food it is now a health threat, because the vital minerals have been removed and sold to livestock farmers. Pure sucrose is not a food, it is a death sentence waiting to strike.
Point Five: Grain, be it bread, pasta or rice, is basically a seed and it contains all the nutrients for new life. The problem is that any modern refining machine worth its salt, readily removes these nutritionally useful bits, leaving white cellulose. No one was paying for these bits to be left in the flour and the domestic animal farmer, including feed lot managers, pay good money for the bran, the hulls etc. When these livestock farmers get faster growing healthy animals that did not need expensive drugs etc, their bottom line was looking positively artistic.
Point Six: Nature releases minerals and makes them available to plants, using the power of trillions of micro-organisms. These anaerobic (need oxygen) bugs must live near the top of the soil in order to breath and multiply. They require organic matter in which to thrive. Modern ploughs are too efficient at inverting this material deep into the soil profile where it is of little use. These mineral releasing bugs do not thrive and so do not release minerals at near the level that nature intended.
Dont mess with this life experience - Your next one could be 100's of years away!
