“According to Ayurveda [Indian Traditional Medicine: ‘‘ayus’’ meaning ‘‘life” and ‘‘veda’’ meaning ‘‘knowledge”], all objects in the universe including the human body are composed of five basic elements...earth, water, fire, air, and vacuum (ether)...It is believed that illness and disease result from an imbalance in the five elements…defines 32 causes of disease resulting in imbalance. Among them are pathogens such as parasites [eg Krimi, worm infestation]…The most important category is prajnaparadha or intellectual insufficiency” Leung’s encyclopedia of common natural ingredients used in food, drugs & cosmetics by Ikhlas A. Khan & Ehab A. Abourashed (pub '10).
And, although the metals used in the Ayurvedic system of medicine include gold, silver [L argentum], copper, mercury, tin, lead, iron and zinc, there are significant caveats on dosage and preparation purity. Importantly, “heavy metals, sanitation [including “clean hands”] and drinking water” represent 35% of “environmental HEALTH” and the “unsafe sanitation” rank, EPI scores are from the 2019 “Global Burden of Disease (GBD) study” using “life-years lost” calculations (ref: epi.yale.edu). Hence, significant testing is undertaken for lead, mercury and others with parameters <0.5ppm and results <0.02ppm and <0.003ppm respectively.
However, EATRIGHT® food products do include important sources of iron, zinc and even copper with recommended daily allowances [c/- minimum lower limits, upper tolerable intake levels and PTD (probable toxic dosages)]. And other minerals, present in parts-per-million (ppm) dosages, are useful to combat worm infestations and other diseases (rather than added “edible gold” [food additive E 175] [4], “edible silver” [E 174], gold salt compounds, colloidal suspensions, nanoparticle isolates etc).
