Minerals & Nutrition > Chi or Life force
Chi, also known as Prana
is the essence of life, the energy that sustains us, is energy that can be measured
electrically and flows throughout or bodies, but this energy flow cn slow down when there are to few minerals in our bodies.
Did you guess that the mineral supplement you
choose to add to your diet might have a noticeable effect on your Chi
energy? Chi is the life force that flows through our bodies. In
traditional Chinese medicine, Chi is seen as the paramount vital energy.
Herbs and dietary supplements, including mineral supplements, are
used to boost Chi and so to restore healthful vigor.
Here in the
West, progressive health
practitioners are embracing Chi as a
major option in their holistic
programs. Chi is an electronic energy
that can be measured using sensitive
electro-acupuncture machines. It is
thought that Chi originates at the
level of the single cell, which is
the basic unit of life. The trillions
of cells in the human body make
electronic energy simultaneously with
chemical energy in the tiny energy
factories they have that are called
mitochondria. The Chi energy leaves
the single cells and moves out of the
tissue, then travels through the
organs and the entire body, as
measured via the classic acupuncture
meridian points.
The correlation
between Chi and minerals is that Chi
is an electron energy, and the more
charged atoms there are in the fluids
the better can the electronic energy
flow. Much as in a battery, the more
charged atoms (ions) there are in the
battery solution, the stronger is the
battery. Similarly, our cells make
the sparks of Chi but its flow is
held by the minerals.
 The better the
balance of the minerals in the
fluids, the better the Chi should
flow. While we do know that there are
23 elements strictly proven essential
for the body, we do not know that
others are not essential or not
important. These may well contribute
to Chi. Broad, multimineral mineral
supplements like those from the Trace
Minerals Research product family come
from a clean sea source with the
sodium removed. These minerals are
totally charged or ionized. Their
contents of potentially toxic
minerals, such as aluminum, cadmium,
lead, and mercury are so low they can
hardly be detected (lower than 1
millionths of a gram per each gram
dry weight).
From my
research into this phenomenon of Chi,
it has become clear that by
supplementing our diet with a well
balanced mineral supplement we can go
a far way towards optimizing our
energy and overall well being. Here
balance is the key: the minerals are
used by the body in a
"yin-yang" complementary
balance. Supplementing with single
minerals may throw off internal
balance and do more harm than good.
Minerals are not the entire story for
Chi, but they are an important part.
