True Story:  In 1997 I had a high-paying computer job in Las Vegas where the company was flying me all  around the country to set up call centers, computer networks, and mainframe data-centers.

It was definitely a high-stress job, as I was on-call 24/7 and never knew where the next phone call would take me.  The job was also something of an American dream job: I lived in a 4 bedroom luxury condo, had a really nice car, a prestigious job and a terrific corporate income with all the bennies.  It was nothing to blow $500 or so at a casino.  I’d often hang out at The Rio until 6am, then show up for work between 8 and 10.  I was in a position to call my own shots, and luckily had no “boss” watching over me.  I was very good at my job, and my computer/data-communication skills were in high demand.

Around the beginning of my third year with the company I realized I was so busy that I had never taken a vacation, and was beginning to get a little “burned out.”  The human resources department offered me a compromise.  They would give me every Tuesday off.  On Tuesdays I started a routine of driving 200+ miles to La Jolla, Calif. and hanging out on the beach just to get away from Vegas.  Sometimes I would drive to Sedona, Arizona to get recharged.  My company tech center knew not to call me on Tuesdays… Ever.

Due to the mineral composition of their environment their foods and water are unusually high in chromium, boron, selenium, and zinc. All of these contribute to the destruction of free radicals.
