The Majestic Earth Minerals come in a 32 fluid ounce (1 quart) container and sold at wholesale price. Dr. Wallach advises that we saturate our system for the first 90 days. A saturation intake is a case of "one size fits all," two fluid ounces (4 Tablespoons) mixed in water or fruit juice to be taken in with food, twice daily, with breakfast and dinner. After the ninety days, a person can cut back to a maintenance intake, which is tagged to body weight. A maintenance intake is one fluid ounce (2 Tablespoons) per 100 pounds of body weight, once daily. Thus, regardless of body weight, a person will need 4 bottles per month the first three months. After the three months, a person weighing, say 180 pounds, will need roughly two bottles per month to maintain.
If Nothing Else, Use the Minerals
The Majestic Earth Minerals comprise 60 of the 90 essential nutrients we all need on a daily basis. Because the body works in balance, they are best used in combination with other supplements (to be discussed in the pages that follow), containing a complimentary profile of essential nutrients. However, if budget prevents this, it is best to concentrate one's purchasing power exclusively on the minerals. After all, since it is the minerals, particularly the non-major minerals, we as a population are most at risk for in terms of deficiency disease and since the Majestic Earth Minerals are ideal for providing this crucial component to our diet and since it is possible with very disciplined and conscientious eating patterns to get the other nutrients from food, a person can get the best bang for their (limited) buck by supplementing, properly and consistently, with the Majestic Earth Minerals.
If budget allows, of course, it is far preferable to use the Majestic Earth Mineral product in combination with the other core supplement products. The combination is formulated to fill out an individual's insurance policy of complete essential nutrient intake. Since the Majestic Earth Minerals are used as a base to all of Dr. Wallach's liquid supplements, (they are that important!), one doesn't need as much of the straight Majestic Earth Minerals when using them in combination as one needs using the Majestic Earth Minerals, exclusively.
How Best to Take the Majestic Earth Minerals
It is best to take in the liquid minerals with food. Eating switches on your digestive system, gets all the right juices flowing, making the body ready to receive the minerals. Use plenty of water, as well, with the minerals (10 to 12 ounces of water is ideal). Refrigerate the bottles after opening and shake hard before serving. To enhance the effectiveness of the Majestic Earth Minerals it is best to avoid sugar, caffeine, phosphoric acid (in soda pop) and vegetable oil.*
* Plants take up some minerals from the soil "altruistically." In other words, the plant itself does not need the particular mineral to sustain its own life but takes up the mineral, nevertheless, as a "favor" to higher life forms.
Why aren't the concentrations of minerals in the Majestic Earth Mineral products listed on the bottle?
Majestic Earth Minerals is a natural product. The concentration of its individual components varies according to which batch of plant matter the minerals are extracted from. From time to time analysis of the product is performed at an independent laboratory. Results are published and made available to the public.
