Some identified reasons are
Physical and mental stress, increasing our requirements for nutrients
Poor diet
The way our food is grown
The way our food is stored and processed.
Our body may have difficulty in absorbing some minerals from our food
Even if absorbed, they may not be utilised properly
Drinking and smoking
A genetic predisposition for imbalances to exist or develop.
As mineral element imbalances in the soils affect the health of plants and animals, so too can imbalances affect the health of us humans as well. We can suffer imbalances without realising it because the first signs may be vague. These vague symptoms can be seen as signals, the body's way of letting us know that something's wrong.
Minerals are the structural and biochemical base upon which everything else in your body is built.
Minerals can’t be created by your body - they can only be obtained from what you eat and drink.
Minerals are often overlooked when it comes to nutritional supplementation and yet they are essential for thousands of biochemical functions in the body.
Many health issues stem from mineral element imbalances and these imbalances can occur for a variety of reasons.
Therapy Background
Rebalance your minerals and get back on track to wellbeing.
The Active Elements® System is based upon the belief that many health issues stem from mineral element imbalances.
The Active Elements® formulas are a combination of low-dose and homoeopathically prepared minerals. The 12 minerals used in the Active Elements® formulas have been in constant use throughout the western world for many generations. It is this long history that makes this one of the few traditional therapies that has survived the test-of time. These minerals form part of what is generally referred to as Traditional Medicine. The Active Elements® concept has transformed this previously complicated and confusing therapy into one that is readily accessible to people who would not normally choose Complementary or Alternative Medicine. The principle that underpins the Active Elements® concept is that an imbalance of these minerals may impact adversely on the body’s natural state of wellbeing.
You should always follow the dose instructions on the label, or advice given to you by your health care professional. You should also read carefully any precautions or warnings on the label. it is important that the recommended doses and times be observed as closely as possible. Taking catch-up doses for doses that you may have forgotten is not recommended – it is better to get into a routine and stick to it. Chewing or swallowing is the advised way of taking the formulas. The chewing option is recommended because it brings the ingredients into contact with the lining of the mouth. Children must always chew the formulas, or they can be crushed and mixed in food or drink if taste is an issue.
Whilst your Active Elements® formulas may play an important part in regaining and/or maintaining your natural state of wellbeing, it is by no means the only factor that you should consider. Your health care practitioner may suggest changes with regard to other aspects of your lifestyle. You should apply any advice conscientiously and avoid slipping back into old habits. Prevention is always better than cure; particularly when you consider that most of the serious illnesses that afflict western societies can be avoided through improved lifestyle. Whilst the Active Elements® concept is focussed on restoring the body’s natural state of wellbeing, sometimes there can be reasons that preclude this objective being realised. Therefore a maintenance or prophylactic dose of the Active Elements® formulas may be recommended by your consultant to ensure benefits are maintained.
You must not stop taking any medically prescribed drugs, or combine Active Elements® formulas with any other medications, without first seeking advice from your health care professional. The low-dose minerals contained in the Active Elements® formulas are compatible with most drugs and/or conditions and therefore extremely unlikely to be of concern, but always check first. Always read the Active Elements® labels for any precautions or warnings.
Children, Babies & Pregnant Women: The low-dose minerals contained in the Active Elements® formulas are generally considered beneficial for children and pregnant, or breast feeding mothers. The labelled children’s dose of Active Elements® formulas varies between full adult dose and half dose, according to the formula. Children must always chew the formulas, or they can be crushed and mixed in food or drink if taste is an issue. Some of the Active Elements® formulas are not suitable for babies unless directed by your health care professional.
All Active Elements® formulas are listed with the Therapeutic Goods Administration of Australia (TGA) and entered onto the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG). Active Elements® formulas are processed in total conformity with the Australian Code of Good Manufacturing Practice for Pharmaceutical Goods at a TGA Licensed Manufacturing Facility in Melbourne, Australia. All batches are microbiologically tested before release. Active Elements® Commitment to Full Disclosure: The Active Elements® formulas are lactose, gluten and animal free and are therefore suitable for vegans and vegetarians. Apart from the active ingredients that are always listed on the formula label, the primary excipient (filler) used in the Active Elements® formulas is the pre-biotic Fructooligosaccharide (FOS) which is derived from Chicory. Other excipients are: Microcrystalline cellulose, Tapioca starch, Soy polysaccharide, Potassium chloride, Magnesium stearate (Vegetable source) and Acacia gum. The presence and/or quantity of any excipient will vary according to the actual formula being considered. All raw materials are sourced from Australia or Europe.
Clinical outcomes are proven to be better when clients and health professionals communicate. Always read the label and use only as directed. If symptoms persist consult your health care professional.
The online Active Elements Assessment system provides a simple way to select your Active Elements formulas. Active Elements online assessment questionnaire considers the relationships that exist between calcium, potassium, sodium, magnesium, phosphate, sulphate, chloride, iron, fluoride and silica, according to the information entered.
This data is then mathematically modelled to predict the most likely imbalances. The algorithms that drive our computer modelling were developed, tested and refined from the decades of clinical observation.
