"MINERALS--YOUR
BODY'S
BUILDING
BLOCKS"
Minerals are the main components in your
teeth and bones, and
they serve as building blocks for other cells and
enzymes.
Minerals also help regulate the balance of fluids in your
body and
control the movement of nerve impulses. Some minerals also
help
deliver oxygen to cells and help carry away carbon
dioxide.
Major
minerals
Calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium, potassium, sulfur
and
chloride are considered major minerals because adults need
them
in larger amounts — more than 250 milligrams (mg) a
day.
Trace minerals
Chromium, copper, fluoride, iodine, iron, manganese, molyb-
denum, selenium and zinc are considered trace minerals
because
your body needs them in smaller amounts — fewer than 20
mg
a
day.
Since
the mechanization of farming and the growth of the size
of our farms, it has become more difficult for farmers to
replenish the minerals that the crops take out of the soil.
None
of the commercial fertilizers contain all the minerals.
Therefore, many areas of farm land have become depleted of
the
natural minerals that are necessary to produce healthy
crops.
For this reason, most people fail to get the required
minerals
from the food they eat, and more and more are turning to
mineral supplements.
Many alternative health practitioners are realizing that
one
reason for our alarming amount of heart attacks in this
country
is that we have a deficiency of magnesium. The latest
research
is finding that we need to consume equal amounts of
magnesium and calcium.
Some nutritionists are recommending 1000 mg. of each per
day.
Dr.
Nan Fuchs has explained that magnesium helps
the bones
to be more flexible, rather than brittle. She uses the
illustration
that chalk is pure calcium and breaks very easily, but ivory is
a
combination
of equal parts of magnesium and calcium and is
therefore much more resistant to breakage, as we want
our
bones to be.
Adding a liforst of sub-pages
to a 'main page' is very straightforward: Simply make
pages into 'sub-pages' by selecting them one-by-one in the
list of pages, left of your screen, then by clicking the
right-facing arrow to indent the selected page in the
list, below your chosen 'main page'. Once you have set
up your sub-pages in the list, simply go to the design tab
for your chosen 'main page' (below which you indented
your sub-pages), right click in the design window, and
select Insert Links to All Sub-Pages.
It's as easy as
that!
XSitePro allows you to have
an infinite number of pages and sub-pages so feel free to add
as many articles as you like. Remember, whenever you add a new
sub-page to your list (in this example we're adding articles)
they will automatically get added to the index-list of pages
that you inserted in your 'main page' as described
above.
