Medicinal Properties of Irish Herbs, Trees & Fungi

This information is for educational purposes only. The responsibility for health lies with the individual.

The main reason for sickness in our society today is Micro Mineral Deficiencies, MMDS, which is the root cause of over 500+ illness that effect humans. This has been caused by the over farming of the land resulting in severe lack of minerals in our basic food chain.

This can be corrected by taking a daily mineral supplement. Try SpectraMAXX from our Sisel Shop and feel the difference when you are getting all your minerals.
