Smart A-Z Minerals — are pure, soluble, ionic, instantly-assimilating minerals that can quickly integrate into your cellular structures and raise your cellular operational health.
Why You Should Consume Our Smart A-Z Minerals:
The ultimate reason is to be optimally healthy. Minerals are one of the great hidden keys to lasting strength, resilience, energy, and long-term wellness. They help the body carry oxygen, produce energy, support nerves, maintain healthy tissues, and keep countless internal systems working the way they should. Statistically speaking, Smart
By consuming Smart A-Z Minerals, with their far superior assimilation, you can overcome the most common mineral deficiencies and help your body's cells achieve optimal function so you feel great!
What Smart A-Z Minerals Are:
Smart A-Z Minerals are ultra-pure, highly assimilable, water solutions of the eight minerals and trace minerals that are under-supplied in most people's bodies. Smart A-Z minerals are prepared and offered as bottles of single minerals or combinations of minerals.
Created from high purity mineral ingots and pure water, utilizing a highly technical, proprietary process
Smart A-Z minerals are offered as water solutions not mineral compounds. That means the minerals are dissolved in water and are in an ionic state. Because of their small angstrom size and ionic state, Smart A-Z Minerals avoid normal digestion and assimilation processes in the stomach and intestines. By avoiding losses from poor digestion and competition with other nutrients, Smart A-Z minerals are quickly and 100% welcomed into the bloodstream and cells of the body.
The combination mineral products are Copper Plus and EZ-8.
- Copper Plus contains Copper, Zinc, and Calcium in appropriate ratios so that copper and zinc do not become unbalanced. Helps with immune function and collagen formation.
- EZ-8 contains the eight most commonly deficient minerals in an ideal balance to be used to bring those minerals into optimum levels.
Smart A-Z Minerals can be consumed on an empty or full stomach. Smart A-Z mineral liquids can be swallowed alone, or can be consumed with other foods and liquids. Swishing the Smart A-Z Mineral liquid around in the mouth for a minute or two before swallowing is the absolute best way to take the minerals as this allows the minerals to strengthen the teeth and gums and to enter the bloodstream quickly prior to getting into the stomach. (Most people don't even realize that teeth absorb minerals during the chewing process inasmuch as teeth don't have a blood supply.)

The statistics above are not a curiosity. They are a warning. They are telling us, loudly and unmistakably, that vast numbers of people are trying to build health on a foundation that is too weak to support it. That is why minerals must become a health priority.
You can chase herbs. You can chase superfoods. You can chase the newest miracle compound. But if your mineral foundation is weak, your body is being asked to perform without the very raw materials it needs to produce energy, move oxygen, fire nerves, build tissues, regulate hormones, defend itself, and maintain strength over time. A body without strong mineral support may keep going for a while, but it cannot perform at its best.
That is the simple, unforgettable truth: your health will rise or fall on your mineral foundation. If your minerals are sub-optimal, then your energy, resilience, structure, repair, and long-term vitality are likely to be sub-optimal too.
So if a person truly wants superior health, this is not optional. This is where the work begins. Seeking optimum mineral levels should be one of your prime health goals, because anyone who aspires to optimum health will, without exception, need a strong foundation of minerals.
Why, Technically, Minerals Are So Important to Life
Generally speaking, minerals and trace minerals have a capability that other elements in nature don't have, namely, their electrons can move to higher transitional orbits. This allows them them to combine with other elements in ways that non-minerals cannot do in order to catalyze reactions at lower energy requirements.
Without minerals, biochemical life COULD NOT EXIST! Optimal cellular function and the total body health that results from trillions of correctly functioning cells DEPEND ON the presence in cellular structures and intra-cellular and extra-cellular fluids of most all the minerals on the periodic table.
Why People Are So Deficient
Because modern farm soils are extremely deficient in minerals, foods derived from those soils (including meat, milk, and eggs) are deficient, too. Human beings, who are at the top of the food chain, unless they supplement or seek mineral-rich food sources from non-commercial farms, will inexorably become mineral deficient. That is why anyone who cares about health must supplement with minerals.
Why Other Supplements May Not Be Enough
Yet, supplementing with an average-quality mineral product or with mineral-rich foods, in general, may not be the full solution to mineral deficiencies. That's because one's digestive abilities may prevent one from assimilating the minerals. For instance, most chelated minerals are digested and assimilated at rates less than 35%, and carbonate-type minerals at less than 10%.
Why Smart A-Z Minerals Can Get Into Cells Better Than Other Mineral Supplements
Most mineral supplements ask the body to do far too much work before the minerals ever become truly useful. Smart A-Z Minerals were designed to remove those barriers.
Smart A-Z Minerals are in ionic form, which means they are already in a highly assimilable state. Instead of depending heavily on strong digestion to break them down, they are designed to move quickly into usefulness. That matters because many people do not have ideal digestion, ideal stomach acid, or ideal intestinal health.
Smart A-Z Minerals can begin passing into the bloodstream even through the mucosal membranes of the mouth, without waiting on digestion and without depending entirely on intestinal mineral access sites. This is enormously important, because those access sites may be compromised by inflammation, digestive weakness, microbial imbalance, or other forms of intestinal stress. When those pathways are damaged, ordinary mineral supplements may pass through a person while doing far less than hoped.
Also, Smart A-Z Minerals do not depend on the same kind of competitive intestinal entry that often forces minerals to fight one another for absorption. That means minerals like zinc and copper can both be assimilated without the same degree of competition seen with many foods and conventional supplements. In practical terms, that means more intelligent mineral delivery and less nutritional traffic jam.
The difference between Smart A-Z Minerals and most other mineral supplements is enormous. With many conventional mineral products, a very large percentage may remain unassimilated. Smart A-Z Minerals were designed to help bypass those losses and deliver minerals in a form the body can put to work far more directly.
Your Body Is Built From the Earth
Minerals are the structural foundation of the human body. Scripture reminds us that mankind was formed from the dust of the earth — and modern science continues to confirm that the minerals found in soil are the same elements that give our tissues strength, structure, and function.
- During gestation, a growing child draws large amounts of minerals from the mother’s body to build bones, nerves, organs, and blood.
- At birth, mineral stores are often at their highest point in life. From that moment forward, maintaining those levels becomes increasingly difficult.
- Today’s soils contain fewer minerals than in previous generations. As a result, the grains, vegetables, fruits, and even animal foods produced from those soils often contain fewer minerals as well.
- For this reason, it is a wise choice to add broad-spectrum mineral and trace mineral supplements to help support the body’s natural mineral balance.
Smart A-Z Minerals allow you to address intelligently your unique deficiencies. If you believe you're deficient in copper only, you can supplement with just copper. Or, if you believe you're deficient in both copper and boron (very common), you can supplement with both our copper and boron liquid mineral supplements.
Or you can supplement with our EZ8 mineral supplement that furnishes your body with the eight most likely-to-be-deficient minerals.

EZ-8 is Smart A-Z Minerals’ flagship product because it solves one of the biggest problems in modern health: people know they need minerals, but they rarely make mineral support simple enough to do consistently.
That is what EZ-8 was created to change. It is formulated around one deeply practical idea: make it dramatically easier to put into the body, every day, the eight minerals most commonly lacking or sub-optimal in modern people. Because when a habit is too complicated, too time-consuming, or too easy to postpone, many people simply do not do it. And when the mineral foundation is neglected, the rest of health often ends up weaker than it should be.
EZ-8 contains the same minerals found in our Smart Pack — eight separate mineral products combined into one simple formula. Instead of taking eight teaspoons, one each of those most commonly deficient minerals, you simply take one tablespoon. In other words, one tablespoon of EZ-8 gives you the same mineral support you would receive from one teaspoon each of our standard eight minerals.
That makes EZ-8 more than a convenience product. It makes it one of the easiest ways to establish what may be the minimum intelligent daily habit for someone who truly cares about health: building and protecting a strong mineral foundation.
Vitamin C matters. B vitamins matter. Essential oils matter. Specialized compounds like apigenin, glycine, and many other excellent supplements have real value. But none of those can fully replace the foundational importance of minerals. Minerals help determine whether nerves fire properly, muscles contract properly, hormones signal properly, cells produce energy properly, tissues rebuild properly, and the body stays resilient instead of gradually running below its potential.
That is why EZ-8 can be so powerful. It helps remove the friction. It helps remove the excuses. It helps remove the hassle of trying to keep up with multiple bottles and multiple spoonfuls every day. And that matters because the best health habit is not merely the one that looks ideal on paper. The best health habit is the one you will actually do, consistently, over time.
EZ-8’s benefits are simple, but they are not small:
- You receive a daily serving of Boron, Calcium, Copper, Iodine, Indium, Magnesium, Potassium, and Zinc — the eight minerals we believe modern people are most likely to need better support from.
- Instead of managing eight separate mineral servings, you simply take one tablespoon.
- EZ-8 can be taken directly in the mouth or mixed into another liquid such as E7, coffee, or tea.
- It makes one of the most important foundations of health far easier to do every single day.
- With EZ-8, staying healthier becomes not only smarter, but simpler and far more achievable.
In short, EZ-8 is for people who do not want to leave their mineral foundation to chance. It is for people who understand that superior health is built on basics done consistently — and that one of the smartest basics of all is making sure the body receives the minerals it depends on most.
For reference (and by deficient, we mean less than required for optimum health):
- 100 percent of Americans are deficient in Indium

Copper is one of those overlooked minerals that can quietly affect how you feel every single day.
When copper is not available in the right amount, the body may not manage iron as well, energy production may not run as smoothly, antioxidant defenses may weaken, and important repair and communication systems may not perform at their best. When that happens, a person may simply feel “off” without knowing why.
That is one reason some people notice they feel better when they take copper. It is not necessarily imagination. It may simply mean that certain systems inside the body are working more efficiently again.
Why copper matters so much
Copper is involved in a surprising number of foundational processes. It helps the body properly utilize iron, support healthy red blood cell function, build connective tissue, support antioxidant enzymes, and maintain healthy nervous system and immune system function. In simple terms, copper helps the body move resources where they need to go and keep important systems running more smoothly.
If you have ever taken copper and felt more steady, more functional, or more like yourself again, that may be because copper helps support the very processes that make normal function possible.
Why Smart A-Z Copper + may stand out
Our Copper + product is a highly concentrated liquid mineral formula featuring copper, zinc, and calcium in an ionic form designed for rapid assimilation.
This is important because these are not random minerals thrown together. Copper and zinc are both essential to immune readiness, antioxidant defense, and tissue maintenance, while calcium plays critical roles in signaling, contraction, and structural support. Together, they provide meaningful nutritional reinforcement for people who want fast, concentrated mineral support.
Just one dropperful (20 drops) contains 2.7 mg of copper, 5 mg of zinc, and 83 mg of calcium, all in a quickly assimilable ionic form.
Why some people feel a difference
When the body has been running low on key minerals, restoring them can sometimes feel surprisingly noticeable. You may not be able to point to one single reason, but internally the body may be handling oxygen better, supporting energy pathways better, maintaining tissues better, and defending itself better. The result can be a greater sense of resilience, steadiness, and well-being.
That does not mean copper is a magic bullet. It means that when the body is given what it has been missing, normal function often improves.
A concentrated mineral support formula for times when you want more than trace support
For those who want meaningful copper support, not just a token amount buried in a multivitamin, Smart A-Z Copper + delivers a substantial serving in a compact liquid form. Many people choose to use it when they want to more fully support mineral status, immune readiness, and overall vitality.
When one desires to quickly and sustainably support the body’s mineral reserves and immune resilience, taking several droppersful a day may be a helpful practice for a short period of time or over a longer stretch, depending on individual needs and tolerance.

Boron is Not Boring!
Boron is one of the most important trace minerals for the human body and most people are deficient in Boron. Boron is involved in all of the following activities and functions of the human body:
- Boron Helps in Preventing Vitamin-D Deficiency.
- Boron Helps in Production, Transmission, and Reception of Hormones. In other words, it beneficially impacts the body’s production and use of estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, vitamin D and other hormones.
- Boron Improves Bone Growth and Maintenance. Scientists have known for many years that boron is essential for healthy bones.
- Boron Improves Wound Healing. Since 1990, studies with boron show that it has been able to significantly improve wound healing.
- Boron Boosts Magnesium Absorption. And since magnesium is so important to detoxification, studies show that Boron helps protect against pesticide-induced oxidative stress and heavy-metal toxicity.
- Boron Boosts Brain Tissue Health. Boron improves the brain's electrical activity, cognitive performance, and short-term memory.
- Boron Reduces Levels of Inflammatory Bio-markers, such as high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and tumor necrosis factor μ (TNF-μ).
- Boron Boosts Expression of Extracellular-matrix Proteins. Boron facilitates the activity of key enzymes in fibroblasts, improving extracellular-matrix turnover.
- Boron help in the formation and activity of key biomolecules, such as S-adenosyl methionine (SAM-e) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). SAM-e and NAD+ helps keep the cardiovascular and mental tissues in tip-top shape.

Calcium is crucial to electrolyte signaling in the body.
Calcium functions, along with potassium, sodium, phosphorous, and magnesium, to move electrical signals through nerves and muscles to make them function. Calcium is essential for hydrating the the body, balancing blood acidity and blood pressure, and signaling for the rebuilding of damaged tissues. The muscles and neurons are sometimes referred to as the “electric tissues” of the body and calcium is cardinal among the electrolytes in managing that electrical function. Calcium ions are critically important for the overall health of these tissues. Nearly half of all calcium in the blood plasma is in exactly the same form as found in our Liquid Calcium. Calcium also combines with phosphate and collagen to make up bone structure.
- Ionic calcium, such as in our Calcium Supplement, is important for sending messages from cell to cell and organ to organ. Your body needs ionized calcium in order to circulate blood into capillaries, move muscles, and release hormones. Calcium helps carry messages from your brain to the many parts of the body.
- Calcium is important for helping to avoid calcium deficiency challenges including: Dental decay, Anxiety and depression, Acidic digestive pH, Cardiovascular stress and high blood pressure.
- Our Liquid Calcium is ideal for ensuring tooth health.. Many people don't realize that calcium enters into teeth and makes them strong as it is absorbed in the mouth from food and drink. That's why thoroughly chewing calcium rich foods is the best habit for having strong teeth. Swishing our Liquid Calcium in the mouth for at least a full minute is even better.
- Many people have come to realize that calcium is important. Therefore they supplement. In many cases, however, people intake too much calcium or they take poorly-absorbed calcium supplements. In either case, the likelihood is increased that calcium deposits will end up in soft tissue such as in the arteries, joints, or in the kidneys.
- Our ionic calcium completely overcomes both of these problems by being completely assimilable and by being in a small dose that will not exceed the body's ability to immediately utilize.

Copper needs to copiously exist in all parts of the human body, but copper is especially needed in the liver, heart, kidneys, brain, bones, muscles and blood.
Trace amounts of Copper are present in all cells of the body in order to fulfill its role as part of the immune systems’ response to bacteria, virus, and especially yeast and mold. When copper levels decline in tissues, the ability of pathogens, especially mold and yeast to damage the body increase. So, keep your copper high or your cells will capitulate their health to invading pathogens.
Copper is absolutely essential for making red blood cells and enabling optimal function of nerve and immune cells. Copper is essential to maintaining color in the hair and pigmentation in the skin. It also is essential in the formation of collagen, a key part of bones and connective tissue. Copper also is essential to the formation and production of enzymes and antioxidants which help digest food and neutralize free radicals and toxins that would otherwise damage cells and DNA.
Copper influences how your body perceives pain. Having optimum amounts of copper in the body ensures that the pain circuits are not always "on".
Copper is integral part in the formation of RNA (RNA carries out thousands of functions in our cells, so copper has a profound effect on overall health).
Graying hair may be an indicator of diminishing amounts of copper in your body.
- Preliminary on the effect of copper upon health shows that it may assist the body in avoiding these kinds of health challenges (more research is needed, but the research is already very promising):
- Osteoporosis
- Low white blood cell count
- Unsteady walking and dizziness
- Anemia
- Hair loss and graying hair
- Rapid heart rate
- Prostatitis
- The uptake of our Smart A-Z Copper is unaffected by the presence of zinc. Unlike copper and zinc in other foods or supplements that must compete for uptake, one can take our liquid copper and zinc at the same time and still absorb both.

Indium is an obscure trace mineral (least abundant minerals on Earth) that is difficult to obtain, isn't in fresh water or crops. The scientists who studied it believed (they may be wrong in the interpretations but Indium study isn't being done presently, so all we have are previous scientists opinions) that it supported the health of the body by increasing reception of nutrients and signaling molecules. Proponents of Indium benefits believe that it is a health treasure, doing more than any other single mineral to boost mood, productivity and happiness. Proponents describe its mechanisms of action in terms of:
- Increased intra-cellular signal transmission
- Increased assimilation of nutrients
- Increased elimination of toxins
- Increased flow of Qi (IE, Chi energy along energy meridians)
- A more balanced flow of energy signals in endocrine glands
According to the limited study tests, the self-reported beneficial effects of indium occur quickly.
- Improved sleep after 15 days
- Increased feeling of well-being after 1 week
- Better physical resistance to stress after 2 weeks
- More Normalized blood glucose after 3-5 weeks
- Improvement of libido after 4 weeks
- More normalized blood pressure after 10 weeks
- More normal of menstruation after 3 months
- More normal eye pressure after 4 months
Proponents also assert (through observation of its effects balancing hormones processes) that Indium has beneficial effect on both the hypothalamus and the pituitary glands. These glands are highly important in producing essential hormones and are responsible for the maintenance and control of most hormone processes of the body.
Again, anecdotally speaking (meaning rigorous testing is absent), Indium helps some people feel a greater sense of energy, focus, and satisfaction with routine tasks. Some have said that it has helped them in regard to being able to stick to tasks rather than getting bored or side tracked.
Non-rigorous studies have shown that Indium supplementation resulted in increased absorption of zinc, copper, manganese, and chromium.
Other non-rigorous studies report that Indium stimulated the Pineal, adrenal, hypothalamus, and pituitary glands, and helped stabilize the Limbic System and increased the body's metabolism set point. Japanese researchers Yukawa et al reports that Indium balances out 23 of the 24 hormonal systems in the body.
Indium is absent from most soil and is virtually never found in water or food, making it a treasure to be prized for those who can get it. Supplementing with Indium is the only way to experience its benefits.
People who take indium often experience benefits very quickly. Most often reported benefits of Indium include:
- Increased Energy
- Deeper Sleep
- More Balanced Responses to Stress
- Healthier Body Weight
- Returning of Moons on Fingernails (indicating increased oxygenation of the body and cells)
- Anti-Aging and Youthing effects

Iodine is one of the great quiet determinants of whether life feels strong, sharp, energized, and well-regulated — or sluggish, foggy, cold, and underpowered. It is not a minor nutrient. It is one of the trace minerals your body must have in order to make thyroid hormones, and thyroid hormones help set the metabolic pace for the entire body.
That is why iodine matters so much. When iodine is not where it should be, the body cannot produce and regulate thyroid hormone as efficiently as it should. And when thyroid function lags, life often feels smaller. Energy may fall. Mental clarity may dim. Drive may weaken. A person may feel flatter, slower, colder, less resilient, and less fully alive than they were designed to feel.
Modern life has only made this problem worse. Many soils have been depleted, and when iodine is scarce in the soil, it is scarce in much of the food grown from it. That means large numbers of people may be living with less iodine support than their bodies truly need, without ever realizing that one of the most important raw materials for metabolic vitality has quietly been slipping away.
And this is not just about the thyroid in some narrow sense. Iodine belongs in the deeper story of communication, regulation, development, and cellular function. It helps support the hormonal signaling that allows the body to coordinate itself intelligently. It belongs in the conversation wherever people care about energy, metabolism, healthy growth, detoxification, and the body’s ability to function with momentum rather than drag.
Iodine is especially important during pregnancy, infancy, and early childhood, because healthy iodine status helps support normal brain and nervous system development. That fact alone should make iodine impossible to dismiss. A nutrient this important to the development of human intelligence and capacity is not something to leave to chance.
At a certain point, the conclusion becomes hard to escape. If iodine is required for healthy thyroid hormone production, and thyroid hormone helps determine energy, metabolic pace, mental sharpness, and the body’s broader sense of vitality, then iodine is not optional for anyone who truly wants superior health. It is one of the smartest minerals to take seriously — because when iodine support is right, life inside the body is far more likely to feel strong, clear, and fully powered.

There is Something Truly Magnificent about Magnesium!
Magnesium ions regulate over 300 biochemical reactions in the body through their role as enzyme co-factors. Magnesium ions are essential to cellular detoxification being highly involved in many detoxification pathways.
- Along with Iodine, Magnesium is a gatekeeper. Its electrical signaling allows nutrients into cells and ensures waste products are removed from cells.
- Its electrical signaling also stimulates food digestion and enzyme activation.
- Its presence in tissues ensures healthy muscle contraction and relaxation, including contraction and relaxation in the heart and in the blood vessels, making it important for blood pressure management.
- Magnesium is known as the "anti-stress mineral" because it helps to calm nerves and ease everyday stresses.
- Magnesium promotes a restful night's sleep.
It's not easy to have too much magnesium in your body.
- Because of all that it does, Magnesium is quickly spent and must be replaced regularly.
- As a person ages, absorption rates for Magnesium also decrease (most likely due to loss of Boron from the body).
- Please note that Boron may reduce the rate at which Magnesium is excreted from the body. So, it's a good idea to take Boron or EZ-8 along with Magnesium.
Magnesium is essential for efficient cellular detoxification.
After Iodine, magnesium is next on the list in importance for enabling maximum cellular detoxification. It needs to always be available to one’s cells. Here's how Magnesium works to detoxify the cells:
- Magnesium stimulates the sodium potassium pump on the cell wall which regulates intracellular electrolyte levels and the intake of nutrients and elimination of waste products, including elimination of heavy metals.
- Glutathione is the master toxin binding molecule that the body makes and utilizes continuously in all cells of the body neutralize free radicals and bind with toxins. Without Magnesium, Glutathione won’t be made — and without Glutathione, free radicals will build up within one’s cells. So, since Glutathione production is dependent on having available magnesium, we should all sure that our body has plenty of Magnesium.
Studies show that when our bodies are replete with magnesium we are much more protected from heavy metal deposition than without that magnesium, and we are also being protected from the development of associated neurological diseases.

Potassium is one of the potentates for ensuring healthy cellular life. 98% of Americans don't have enough to have the healthiest possible life.
Potassium is the third most abundant mineral in the body, and the third most likely mineral deficiency any person has, right after Indium and Boron, even for people who think they are supplementing with lots of it.
- Potassium helps the body regulate fluid and sugar levels, send nerve signals and regulate muscle contractions.
- Roughly 98% of the potassium in the body is found in the cells. Of this, 80% is found in muscle cells, while the other 20% can be found in the bones, liver and red blood cells.
- Potassium functions as an electrolyte to ensure electrical signals get transmitted well, to coordinate fluid balance, nerve signaling, and muscle contractions.
Studies show that persons who consume the most Potassium (even though they're still in the category of not consuming enough) have better:
- Cardiovascular Health and Blood Pressure
- Nerve Function
- Bone Health
- Muscle Strength
- Blood Sugar Levels
Remember less than 2% of Americans have adequate amounts of Potassium in their diets. So, if you want to be wiser than 98% of Americans, supplement with Smart A-Z Potassium

Silver: Powerful Proven Immune System Support
At least two millenia ago, Silver was recognized as having Immune assisting properties. For instance, it was discovered that Silver could delay the spoilage of food and reduce the symptoms of illness. In the 19th century, Silver became a prominent "goto" treatment for everything from colds to skin infections. Silver was put in eyes of newborns to help prevent eye infections. Several modern studies suggest (but don't conclusively prove) that taking Silver internally helps the immune system to reduce pathogen levels.
The mechanism of action of silver in supporting the immune system is by neutralizing bacteria and viruses. Silver has been shown in test tubes to stop the growth of certain strains of fungi.
Other studies have shown that silver was able to help skin ulcers and wounds to heal faster. Silver is often in nasal sprays to help with sinusitis (rhinosinusitis).
Silver works by binding to pathogen protein cell walls, and eventually enter the pathogen cell and interfere with pathogen metabolic process and DNA, eventually leading to the pathogen death. Silver also is able to stop pathogen cell division.

Zinc helps the immune system and metabolism to function efficiently. Zinc is also important to wound healing and your sense of taste and smell.
Studies suggest that Zinc has the potential reduce the risk of age-related diseases, such as pneumonia, infection, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), oxidative stress and to help improve immune response by boosting the activity of T-cells and natural killer cells, which help protect the body again infection
- It supports good immunity. “Zinc is essential for a robust immune system — it helps in the development and function of immune cells, supports the body's defense against pathogens that can make you sick, and plays a role in regulating a healthy immune response,” explains Basson. Zinc has even been shown to potentially shorten the duration of the common cold when taken in lozenge form, Poon adds. You’ll know that your immune system needs some love if you notice you’re getting sick more frequently or can’t seem to heal as well from injury or infection.
- It helps reduce inflammation. It’s important to keep tabs on inflammation because when it becomes chronic (translation: it’s constantly present in your body) it may increase your risk for things like heart disease, type 2 diabetes, obesity and certain cancers. But, “zinc has anti-inflammatory properties,” says Laura Iu, R.D., a certified intuitive eating counselor in New York City.
- It boosts bone strength. Studies suggest that it’s an essential mineral for building and maintaining strong bones, which is super important to help prevent fractures or conditions such as osteoporosis. “Zinc supports the activity of cells responsible for bone formation and helps regulate bone remodeling processes that occur throughout life,” Basson says.
- It is important for reproductive health. You may not realize how much nutrition can impact your hormonal balance and function, and in turn, your reproductive system. “Zinc contributes to hormone regulation and supports normal ovarian function,” Iu says. “It’s also essential for sperm production and maintaining healthy testosterone levels.”
- It helps you smell and taste. “This mineral helps maintain the integrity of taste buds and olfactory receptors, which contributes to how we perceive flavors and aromas,” explains Basson. This means that zinc may be helpful for people who are malnourished or going through cancer treatment, Iu adds, two scenarios when appetite may be an issue.
- It is great for your brain. It plays a role in brainpower by supporting cognitive processes and neurotransmitter function, Iu says, and “some studies even suggest that zinc may protect against age-related cognitive decline and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s.”
- It aids in wound healing. If you have a cut, scrape or other ouch, loading up on this mineral may help you heal better and faster. “Both minor and more serious injuries can benefit from zinc’s healing powers,” says Iu. “It helps with cellular health and collagen formation.”
- It is good for your skin. The antioxidant activity of zinc may be why it’s beneficial to skin health. “Zinc’s antioxidant properties help protect cells from damage caused by free radicals and helps reduce oxidative stress,” explains Basson. And zinc’s anti-inflammatory action may also help improve acne, Iu adds. It helps your eyes. “Zinc is part of a collection of vitamins and minerals that may slow the progression of age-related macular degeneration,” says Poon. It also plays a role in overall vision health, particularly that of the retina. “Zinc is involved in the synthesis of melanin, a pigment that helps protect the eyes from harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays,” Basson adds.
- It plays a role in heart health. It helps maintain healthy blood vessels and regulates blood pressure — all factors in maintaining a strong heart. "Some studies have shown the association between zinc deficiency and an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, but more research is needed,” Basson says. It is crucial for growth and development. Little ones need zinc to grow big and strong. “It supports DNA synthesis, cell division and protein production, which sets the foundation for bone development, maturation and overall healthy growth during these critical stages of life,” says Iu. It helps keep blood sugar balanced. Steady blood sugar helps with everything from mood to energy, and if you have diabetes, keeping it in check is an important factor in preventing complications; research shows that zinc is a nutrient that can be beneficial in this area. “Zinc is involved in the synthesis, storage and release of insulin, a hormone that helps with blood sugar regulation,” Basson explains.

Mineral Levels in One's Body Go Down From Birth and Have A Huge Impact on Health:
Trying to build anything important on a weak foundation is an invitation to frustration. You may keep adding more to the structure, but if the base is not strong enough, the whole thing becomes less stable, less reliable, and more likely to fail under pressure.
One of the most important foundations of human health is minerals and trace minerals.
Although minerals make up only a very small percentage of the body’s total mass, their importance is vastly greater than their quantity suggests. They help govern electrical activity, fluid balance, nerve signaling, muscle contraction, oxygen handling, enzyme function, tissue building, and countless other processes that determine whether the body performs with strength and resilience or struggles along below its potential.
That is why mineral deficiencies matter so much. A body can keep going for a long time on a weak mineral foundation, but it often does so with less energy, less stability, less repair capacity, and less health than it was truly designed to have.
Before birth, a developing baby draws heavily on the mother’s nutrient reserves, including essential minerals and trace minerals. That is one reason pregnancy places such extraordinary demands on a woman’s body, and one reason excellent mineral nutrition is so important during that time. A growing baby is not creating those minerals out of nothing — it is receiving them through the mother.
After birth, maintaining strong mineral status becomes an ongoing challenge. From that point forward, a child must continually obtain enough minerals from food and nourishment to support growth, development, energy production, tissue building, and healthy function. That is not always easy in a modern world where soils are often less mineral-rich, diets are often highly processed, and the body is frequently stressed in ways that increase nutritional demand.
In other words, good mineral status cannot be taken for granted. It must be supported. And when that support is weak, the body may gradually lose ground in strength, resilience, development, and long-term vitality.
Two Factors Destroy the Mineralization of the Human Body
The Standard American Diet Does Not Build Health — It Slowly Pulls It Apart
Every bite of food asks something of the body. The body must break it down, manage it, extract fuel from it, process its byproducts, regulate blood sugar around it, and keep all of its internal chemistry stable while doing so. That work costs nutrients. It costs minerals. It costs metabolic resources.
So the real question is never merely, “Did I eat?” The real question is, “Did what I ate give more back than it took?”
That is where the Standard American Diet fails so badly. Much of it is built from processed foods, refined carbohydrates, sugars, damaged fats, additives, preservatives, and calories stripped away from the deeper nourishment the body actually needs. These foods may stimulate. They may comfort. They may fill space. But too often they do not truly build the body. In the long run, they can leave a person more depleted than before.
That is why nutrient-empty foods can almost be thought of as vacuum foods. They may fill the stomach, but they do not fill the body with what it needs most. Instead, the body may have to draw on already-stored nutrients and minerals just to metabolize them. Over time, that is not nourishment. That is erosion.
Bite by bite, drink by drink, day by day, this kind of eating can quietly reduce the body’s reserves. And as reserves fall, so often does vitality. Energy gets harder to maintain. Recovery becomes less efficient. Stress hits harder. Nerves are less steady. Muscles are less cooperative. Hormones signal less cleanly. The body becomes more fragile where it was meant to be resilient.
That is why the goal of eating should never be merely to avoid hunger. The goal should be to provide fuel and maintain the nutritional reserves required for long-term strength, repair, detoxification, resilience, and real health. This is exactly where the Standard American Diet betrays people.
A person may survive on that kind of eating for years. Many do. But surviving is not thriving. Getting by is not the same as building a body that can stay strong, sharp, energetic, and capable for decades to come. If a person wants the next 20, 40, or 100 years to be stronger than the last, then minerals can no longer be treated as optional.
Modern Produce Often Looks Better Than It Nourishes
Even people who try to eat well face another hidden problem: much of modern produce is not as mineral-rich as it appears. It may look fresh. It may look colorful. It may look abundant. But visual beauty and deep nourishment are not the same thing.
Over the last century, agriculture changed dramatically. The focus shifted toward size, yield, speed, transport, shelf life, appearance, and profit. Crops are often grown in ways that emphasize what looks good and sells well, not necessarily what rebuilds a human body most deeply. The result is that many people are eating food that appears healthy while receiving less of the mineral wealth that once came more naturally from the soil.
Large-scale agriculture commonly replenishes only a limited set of nutrients, especially nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, because those help create fast growth and attractive-looking crops. But a crop can be large, beautiful, and marketable while still carrying less of the deeper mineral and trace mineral nutrition that human health depends on.
The eye sees produce. The body needs minerals. And those are not always the same thing.
When soil is pushed hard year after year without truly restoring its full mineral profile, crops may gradually become less nutrient-dense. So even sincere health-conscious people may be eating “better” than average, yet still falling behind in the very minerals that help determine whether the body stays youthful, resilient, mentally clear, and structurally strong.
The graph below reflects one troubling long-term trend: over a 36-year period, several macro-minerals in crops declined significantly. And if larger minerals are declining, the concern over trace minerals becomes even more serious, because trace minerals are often the hidden difference between a body that merely functions and a body that functions exceptionally well.
In our view, the deeper threat is not just the loss of larger minerals, but the loss of trace minerals such as zinc, iodine, boron, copper, selenium, silicon, and others. These minerals are needed in smaller amounts, but their importance is enormous. They help govern enzyme systems, hormone signaling, connective tissue strength, immune readiness, antioxidant defense, cognition, repair, and cellular intelligence.
That means a person can be eating enough food, and even eating produce regularly, yet still remain under-mineralized where it matters most. The body may keep going, but at a lower level of vitality than was truly possible. And that is the trap of modern life: people assume they are covered because they are eating, when in reality their deeper mineral foundation may still be quietly eroding.
Only the more progressive farmers are seriously working to restore the broader mineral richness of soil. Until that becomes the norm again, wise people should stop assuming that modern food alone will fully protect their mineral status.
And this is where the conclusion becomes almost unavoidable: if you want to build a body that can go the distance — not merely survive, but remain strong, capable, clear-minded, and resilient for the long haul — then minerals must become part of your foundation. Not a side issue. Not an afterthought. A foundation.
That is why EZ-8 matters so much. It takes the eight minerals most likely to be missing or sub-optimal and makes them easy to take every single day. For many people, that may be one of the smartest, simplest, and most far-reaching health habits they will ever establish.
Please note that general discussions about minerals cannot be applied without precautions to everyone because people have unique circumstances and individual gene defects. Some people have a gene defect, for instance, where they cannot eliminate copper from their bodies. These people would be harmed by taking additional copper. So, always seek the guidance of your wellness professional who knows you well.
- Many mineral supplements have great-looking labels, but the supplements themselves don't improve one's health much. Often, the reason is either that those supplements lack important minerals or trace minerals or they assimilate very poorly (see below).
- For instance, Indium is very valuable to health, yet there is no detectable Indium mineral in any tested water or food in America. Very few supplements offer it. Indium is both present and perfectly assimilable in Smart A-Z Minerals.
- Most chelated forms of minerals offer assimilation rates between 3 and 35 percent. That's because mineral-rich foods and mineral compounds as in most supplements must be digested (broken apart into small sizes and enter the bloodstream through "mineral access" sites in the intestines. Most mineral products are very ineffective at actually entering the bloodstream and simply go on out of the body into the sewage, rather than being assimilated into the cells of the body.
- Smart A-Z minerals are in a highly assimilable, water solution form. There is no Tyndal effect when shining a light through the Smart A-Z mineral solution, proof that the minerals in these liquids are dissolved, rather than being colloidal particles.
- Being Ionic and in water solution, Smart A-Z Minerals offer virtually instant and complete assimilation of its minerals to the blood and cells of the human body. It follows that with Smart A-Z Minerals, mineral inadequacies in the body will more rapidly be remedied.
