trace minerals

[Guest guest]

All minerals are the building blocks for each cell in the body. I consider

them to be analogous to bricks. You cannot build a brick house unless you

have an ample supply of bricks. Trace minerals are those minerals like

iodine, zink, copper, selenium, and a few others that are necessary for your

body to build healthy cell structures. The reason they are called trace

minerals is because it does not take many of them to build a healthy

structure and they occur less frequently in nature unlike those needed in

greater quantities like calcium, magnesium, phosphorous, sodium and many

others.

This is a personal message about a trace mineral. Many years ago I

discovered a problems with obtaining and erection and maintaining it. At

the same time I noticed my left foot was sore all the time. So I consulted

my doctor. Yes, there is a connection. X-rays revealed some broken bones

in the foot and a blood test revealed extremely low testosterone levels

around 200. So my doctor prescribed some testosterone pills which I took

for three months and had another blood test. The testosterone level did

rise some, but not very much. It rose to around 250, still a very low

reading. I thought something was wrong, but the medicine was not making it

well. So I decided to do some research into nutrition by reading several

college textbooks on the subject. I discovered a simple fact in common with

low testosterone low libido and broken bones. An essential trace mineral

for building strong bones is boron. Also, all sex hormones both male and

female sex hormones require the presence of boron in order for the body to

build them. Boron is also the trace mineral required to build a strong bone

matrix composed of calcium, magnesium, phosphorous . So where can I easily

get this boron? At the health food store. is the answer. I purchased a 1mg

chelated capsule bottle of boron and started taking them two or three times

each week. Remember this is a trace mineral, so I did not need to take a

lot of them every day. After a few weeks my foot stopped hurting and my

libido improved greatly. So I got another blood test and my testosterone

level was now 450 well into the mid range of a normal testosterone level.

The problems are solved. No more libido or performance problems and no more

broken bones in the foot.

Never forget that impotence problems in males is also the result of

complication from diabetes, caused by running high blood glucose levels.

Run near normal bs levels and take some boron from time to time and you will

function just as well as you did when you were young.

Today I take a multivitamin and a multimineral caplet once or twice each

week just to supply the needed trace minerals my body needs.

May you remain healthy and live long.
