True Health Comes From Nutrition

Welcome to Mineralized Gardens! The premise of this website is really simple; true health comes from nutrition and that nutrition always starts from the soil and works its way up the food chain. The complexity of “healthcare” so often overlooks the simple solution right under our feet in favor of patented (and lucrative) “non-solutions.”
Soil is the Birthplace of Nutrition
Soil, when endowed with the full spectrum of minerals and combined with active biology, will produce foods of such high nutritional density that only one word can properly describe their function on human health; therapeutic.
Today we are facing a major breakdown in our national health. Simple observation in public show how out of proportion we are. More and more Americans are becoming grossly overweight. A recent stroll through downtown Paris provided a stark contrast, no fat people except for an occasional tourist—mostly Americans.

By Jon C. Frank
Soil is a marvelous and complex part of creation. Soil has been meticulously studied and written about from many perspectives. Beginning in the 1850’s Russian scientists began to classify soils based on their various properties including geological origins. By 1900 American scientists were significantly adding to the knowledge of soil science. From the 1920’s-1950’s Russian research on soil microbiology was at its pinnacle. With the honorable exception of Dr. William Albrecht, American research and universities began focusing more on cultural practices that would profit agribusiness rather than raising the nutritional standard of the foods being produced. Three notable pioneers consisting of Dr. Charles Northen, Dr. Carey Reams, and Albert Carter Savage, all working in the private sector, were greatly alarmed at the precipitous decline in the nutrient density of our foods and the disconnect between soil science and food quality. Each individual made significant contributions in defining a new type of soil. In contrast to classical soil science that observes soil properties in order to name and classify it, these three men looked at soil with a different goal—to craft it into a soil that produced therapeutic food fully capable of rebuilding human health. While others classified existing soils these three men created an optimum soil that I will refer to as mineralized soil.
