Maynard Murray pioneered study in the idea that sea water contains over 90 minerals and trace elements that are critical to human health. For years, scientist have focused on what components would boost crop yield without giving much thought to how nutritious those extra bushels might be. William Albrecht pointed out a generation ago that if we don’t feed the soil, it can’t feed us. Why is Re-mineralization So important?ĭr. Well, in our case, we are a 24/7 salad bar.

Was it the smell or the electrical conductivity? They sniffed out each one and devoured it. While they were here, I placed a few handfuls out around the barn. They ate the grass, roots and eventually the dirt. They followed their order of dominance as each one ate at the spot where the sea salt had been absorbed by the grass.
