Assunto: Desmineralização dos Solos
Para: "Luiz Meira" <luizmeira@yahoo.com>

Já em 1936 alguem já dizia que os solos pobres produzem alimentos
vazios geradores de doenças.

These are Verbatim Unabridged extracts from the 74th Congress 2nd Session:
"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
food comes are brought into proper mineral balance?"
"The alarming fact is that foods (fruits, vegetables and grains) now being
raised on millions of acres of land that no longer contain enough of certain
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."
"The truth is that our foods vary enormously in value, and some of them
aren't worth eating as food...Our physical well-being is more directly
dependent upon the minerals we take into our systems than upon calories or
vitamins or upon the precise proportions of starch, protein or carbohydrates
we consume."
"This talk about minerals is novel and quite startling. In fact, a
realization of the importance of minerals in food is so new that the text
books on nutritional dietetics contain very little about it. Nevertheless,
it is something that concerns all of us, and the further we delve into it
the more startling it becomes."
"You'd think, wouldn't you, that a carrot is a carrot - that one is about as
good as another as far as nourishment is concerned? But it isn't; one carrot
may look and taste like another and yet be lacking in the particular mineral
element which our system requires and which carrots are supposed to
contain."
"Laboratory test prove that the fruits, the vegetables, the grains, the
eggs, and even the milk and the meats of today are not what they were a few
generations ago (which doubtless explains why our forefathers thrived on a
selection of foods that would starve us!)"
"No man today can eat enough fruits and vegetables to supply his stomach
with the mineral salts he requires for perfect health, because his stomach
isn't big enough to hold them! And we are turning into big stomachs."
"No longer does a balanced and fully nourishing diet consist merely of so
many calories or certain vitamins or fixed proportion of starches, proteins
and carbohydrates. We know that our diets must contain in addition something
like a score of minerals salts."
"It is bad news to learn from our leading authorities that 99% of the
American people are deficient in these minerals, and that a marked
deficiency in any one of the more important minerals actually results in
disease. Any upset of the balance, any considerable lack or one or another
element, however microscopic the body requirement may be, and we sicken,
suffer, shorten our lives."
"We know that vitamins are complex chemical substances which are
indispensable to nutrition, and that each of them is of importance for
normal function of some special structure in the body. Disorder and disease
result from any vitamin deficiency. It is not commonly realized, however,
that vitamins control the body's appropriation of minerals, and in the
absence of minerals they have no function to perform. Lacking vitamins, the
system can make some use of minerals, but lacking minerals, vitamins are
useless."
"Certainly our physical well-being is more directly dependent upon the
minerals we take into our systems than upon calories of vitamins or upon the
precise proportions of starch, protein of carbohydrates we consume."
"This discovery is one of the latest and most important contributions of
science to the problem of human health."
