Dear Valued Customer

It's not often our CEO 'is on the phones' at customer support; but his recent spell helping us answer your calls has prompted him to write these intriguing words:

Minerals REALLY do Matter!
The first phone call of the day presented me with this humbling comment “these Sizzling Minerals have been truly remarkable for my wife’s psoriasis – having tried just about everything else these really do work!” As the day continued, I listened to many other reassuring comments “I’m not falling asleep in the afternoons anymore, I’m no longer getting tired like I used to, I have my energy back” and “my son was always getting colds or flu at this time of year, I’m so glad he’s not had any for the last 4 years”.

For those of you I spoke too during my time on ‘telephone support’ I thank you for your patience and sharing your amazing and truly humbling experiences with me; it is always important (and a pleasure) for me to speak to our customers and to learn if there is anything we can do better or any relevant knowledge we can share.

Why Do You Think These Minerals Work So Well?
A common question which I was asked 3 times during one day! Having met and spoken with thousands of people in my many years of working with plant derived minerals you form a true understanding of their effectiveness.

There are literally thousands of nutritional supplements on the market – but has the thought ever occurred to you that for any supplement its quality and efficacy is basically down to the soil in which it was grown? From the ‘top of the range’ plant sourced omega oils right down to basic vitamins – the soil quality will ultimately dictate the quality of the nutrient crop. It could therefore be suggested that minerally depleted soil (we will skip soil contamination for now) will provide a lower quality of nutrient crop than the same crop grown in a more nutrient dense soil – and by nutrients we are of course talking about minerals.

When consumed together with a ‘good’ diet and/or any targeted nutrient(s), plant source minerals work synergistically together, ensuring the multitude of bodily functions receive the best possible access to the nutrients they require. In essence, plant source minerals should be viewed as the catalyst for any form of nutrition to deliver its benefit, by providing the body with what it has been lacking. So, it’s not the case that the minerals ‘are working so well’ it would be better to suggest that the body is able to function to its optimum, just as nature intended.

The 'Flu' Season
Another question was obviously about colds & flu; as we are stepping into the winter months in Europe, it is good to learn that some Governments are stating, that vitamin C & D ‘could’ be essential for prevention of colds, flu’s etc., with the UK Government even stating "Free vitamin D supplements for people at high risk from coronavirus (COVID-19)". Couple these 2 essential vitamins with our plant source minerals, and your immune system will be blessed with some of its best support ever.

Also, we know there is strong evidence supporting the major role zinc plays with fighting off such ailments; however, we believe that zinc works together with its other mineral allies to provide its effectiveness, once again, a plant derived source will always be more effective.

Having built long term relationships with customers who once suffered during our winter months with the ‘usual’ health issues (across all age groups) and to learn of them now not having to endure their ‘annual’ onslaught of running nose, sore throat, sneezing etc., just further endorses the benefits minerals (and of course other good nutrients) add to our diets.

As has been said to me many times over “the proof of the pudding is in the eating” and these minerals certainly deliver the results you are looking for.

Sincerely
Peter Willoughby

Loss of Essential Nutrients due to Prescription Drugs
Building on our theme of nutrient loss caused by what we consume, many prescription drugs & medications can cause or contribute to major mineral and vitamin deficiencies in our body.

Although there is a growing awareness of the adverse effects of prescription drugs, little attention has been given to the significant effects on the loss of essential nutrients that they cause.

Many drugs are new molecules in nature which never existed until pharmaceutical laboratories invented them. When a person takes these new drugs, the body then has to metabolize them after which, as with any nutrient, evacuating the waste involves enzymes and chemical reactions using vitamins and minerals.

Some drugs use large amounts of these vitamins, minerals and other essential nutrients; this is why it is not surprising that drug taking, especially when it is long term, causes vitamin and mineral deficiencies. Even when the medication is a replica of a molecule naturally present in the body or in nature, it can increase the needs of the body for certain molecules.

Some types of medication are quite aggressive in their ability to remove valuable nutrients to the point that doctors who prescribe them should be educating the patient on this so they can adjust their diet and/or supplement accordingly. A good example of this has been to consume ‘live’ yogurt following a course of antibiotics.

If you are taking any of these or other medications (especially long term) it may be a good idea to get yourself checked for any potential deficiencies.

When considering taking any of these medications one should think carefully about if it is necessary and whether there is a natural alternative, as a lot of the time the conditions you are taking them for are usually due to nutrient deficiencies in the first place and consuming these medications could contribute to the problem.

If you feel there isn’t an alternative, please consider taking a good multivitamin like our 'Fizzy Vitamins' and one of our plant derived mineral supplements to correct any deficiencies - you can buy yours from my website.

Mind Blowing Benefits of Vitamin D / Curcumin?

"Nearly 99 per cent of Covid-19 patients who are vitamin D deficient die, according to a terrifying study that adds to mounting evidence that the 'sunshine' nutrient could be a coronavirus life-saver".




Indonesian researchers analysed hospital records of 780 people who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus that causes Covid-19. Results revealed 98.9 per cent of infected patients defined as vitamin D deficient — below 20ng/ml — died. Yet this fell to just 4.1 per cent for patients who had enough of the nutrient. Researchers warned the study was not definitive, however, because the patients with high vitamin D levels were healthier and younger.

It comes as health chiefs are urgently reviewing the use of vitamin D as a coronavirus lifesaver, with several studies suggesting that Covid-19 patients are far more likely to die if they have a deficiency. One investigation – carried out by Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge – found European countries with lower vitamin D levels have had significantly more pandemic casualties.The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence is conducting a 'rapid evidence review' of the issue – and publication is expected as early as next week.

The Indonesian study was not associated with experts from any university, unlike most Covid-19 research.All five researchers, led by Prabowo Raharusuna, were listed as 'independent'. No details of their scientific backgrounds were provided in the paper. The research, published in April, has yet to be peer-reviewed by fellow scientists, a process that often uncovers flaws in studies.The team found vitamin D-deficient patients were 10 times more likely to die when age, gender and co-morbidities were taken into account.

They wrote in the paper: 'When controlling for age, s*x, and comorbidity, vitamin D status is strongly associated with Covid-19 mortality outcome of cases.'And they called for randomised controlled trials — considered the gold-standard of scientific research — to prove whether vitamin D can be a life-saver.


One in five British adults and one in six children is lacking in vitamin D, thanks to poor diets, indoor lifestyles and lack of sunshine. Experts estimate around 1billion people worldwide are deficient in the vitamin, with the figures having been described as a 'global public health issue'. Some scientists fear that the lockdown and months of indoor living have cut levels even further. Some ethnic groups tend to be at higher risk because their skin is less able to make the vitamin in response to sunlight. Older people are also in danger because the body gets less efficient at producing the vitamin with age.

The shocking statistics and hard-hitting headline of the study noted above is just another 'humble' example of the power of plant based nutrition in a world that is increasingly becoming full of toxins & chemicals.

Recently, there have been a myriad of reports released about the effects of Vitamin D with Covid-19; some may be 'questionable' and some (like that noted above) appear with good substance and clear visability. It can be said, that no matter where or who you are, without access to high quality, organic foods and where the soils are depleted of many important nutrients, we can find ourselves needing to supplement, and just maybe these are some of the contributing factors of the study above.

Vitamin D3 is most prominent in foods like fish (especially oily fish), meats & dairy produce, and is also found in cereals. Finding a good source can therefore prove difficult for Vegans and Vegetarians, however another potent source of Vitamin D3 is Curcumin. Simply Curcumin contains 200% (NRV) of bio-available, full potency Vitamin D3; we already know the significant anti-inflammatory results this fabulous product can deliver and to provide more wide-reaching benefits is a great bonus.

Utilizing the latest technology in curcumin extraction, (a process known as 'micronization'), this not only extracts high potency Curcumin in liquid form, but it also alleviates the now 'out dated' requirement of needing to add pepper.
