Good heavens, I was just passing on a comment seen written which pertained to the discussion! Others have quoted from more illustrious sources, containing the same info! I didn't realise that I had to have a PhD and quote sources in triplicate to enter a conversation on this list! Mea culpa! Hidden agenda? What, to make us all take oodles of unnecessary supplements? When the governments of your country and mine are hellbent on seriously restricting what we can buy in the shops? I don't think so! Where's the hidden agenda in suggesting that maybe trace elements should be returned to the soil? That our food quality ain't what it used to be? I quite agree, in an ideal world, natural would be all that's needed, and it's definitely best, but this ain't an ideal world and our farming practices have gone to hell.....American more than British, what with feed-lot beef pumped full of steroids, and genetically-engineered crops used as a matter of course (something we still hold out against, despite government trying to force it down our throats). Organic food has caught on in a big way over here, but it's not affordable for the majority, especially meat and dairy. When all food is organically produced, when artificial fertilisers and weedkillers aren't used as a matter of course, when GM food has been chucked in the dustbin where it belongs, when meat beasties are free-range, then maybe it will be safe to say that we get all the nutrients we need for optimum health from our food. Until then it's probably safer to keep taking the pills. Yours Kay Jennings Bristol England mailto:[email protected] -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
