"Our physical well-being is more directly dependent upon minerals we take into our systems than upon calories or vitamins, or upon precise proportions of starch, protein or carbohydrates we consume."

" Do you know that most of us today are suffering from certain dangerous diet deficiencies which cannot be remedied until depleted soils from which our foods come are brought into proper mineral balance?"

"The alarming fact is that foods (fruits and vegetables and grains) now being raised on millions of acres of land that no longer contains enough of certain needed minerals, are starving us--no matter how much of them we eat! No man of today can eat enough fruits and vegetables to supply his system with the minerals he requires for perfect health because his stomach isn't big enough to hold them."
