Hiya and welcome to the Wellness Mama podcast. I’m Katie from wellnessmama.com, and this episode is in regards to the elephant within the room within the well being area and the best way to repair it. And that is most likely not a subject that you’d guess, and it won’t be the one you’re considering of, even should you’re guessing. And I’m right here with my good friend Ian Clark, who when he was 46 years outdated, he had a lot of life-threatening well being points hit him all of sudden. And he, like I used to be, was compelled to start out trying to find his personal options. And refusing to simply accept a adverse end result, he selected a pure path, and he traveled the globe uncovering potent treatments with highly effective pure well being advantages. And after years of intense analysis and supporting his personal physique, his firm Activation Merchandise was born. And we talked about one thing that’s, I really feel, not talked about almost sufficient and definitely not on the degree and the nuance that he explains it at the moment on this episode. So positively take heed to this one in regards to the elephant within the room in relation to well being, and this actually shocking factor that he did and that many individuals are having wonderful outcomes with and that I’ve additionally been experimenting with. So with out additional ado, let’s be part of Ian Clark. Ian, welcome. It’s at all times such a pleasure to get to speak to you, and I’m so glad we get to have this dialog at the moment.
Ian: Katie, yeah, it’s been some time. You’re wanting nice.
Katie: Properly, thanks. Yeah, we’re lengthy overdue for a catch-up. And I like that we’re going to get to go deep on what I feel are some actually necessary matters at the moment. I feel to start out broad, the title for this episode is in regards to the elephant within the room and the well being area. So I feel that’s the place we begin. What’s the elephant within the room?
Ian: Properly, the elephant within the room is at all times one thing that isn’t apparent, it seems. We at all times suppose that we’d by no means miss the elephant within the room. But it surely comes proper right down to what will we do bodily essentially the most. And what are these bodily issues we, these actions we do, how do they have an effect on us? And the one main factor that we do is we breathe 11,000 liters of air per day. Meaning we breathe 4 million liters a 12 months. Between the age of 20 and 60, meaning we breathe 160 million liters of air. And everyone knows that the air has nanoparticle pollution in it. And they’re huge in quantity, but they’re invisible. So what you possibly can’t see or scent or style, you’re respiration.
And we all know that mathematically and scientifically they exist. As a result of we’re driving automobiles which produce large quantities of air pollution like tire mud and brake mud. I’m not so anxious in regards to the gasoline. The automobiles are fairly environment friendly burning gasoline. However the tire mud and the brake mud are two massively enormous issues of those nanoparticles we breathe, they seem like little razor blades. There’s 10 billion kilos of tire mud in the USA launched into the environment yearly, and it goes a mile and a half above all of the roads the place automobiles drive and vans drive. In order that contamination causes us well being points over time. And fortunately, we all know what the answer is and the best way to repair that drawback. However that’s the large elephant within the room that persons are lacking.
Katie: And what are a number of the results that that is having on the human physique? I imply, it is sensible. I’ve at all times thought by way of triage, everyone will get so involved with what they eat and the dietary supplements they take, which, after all, could be essential as properly. However after we take a look at it on an quantity of affect degree, we’re respiration all day, day-after-day, even whereas we’re sleeping. Our hydration, I feel, can be necessary as a result of we will go for much longer with out meals than with out water. However air is the one that can kill us the quickest if we don’t have it. And the one which since we’re respiration all day, day-after-day, looks like tremendous necessary. So what are a number of the issues that occur to the physique after we’re getting that buildup of every thing from the air?
Ian: Properly, the very first thing that occurs is whenever you breathe air into your lungs, folks consider their lungs as a balloon as a result of whenever you breathe in, you’re feeling this factor fell up and it expands. So whenever you check out a set of lungs, they’re actually chunks of meat. They’re very dense chunks of meat which have all these aeolian pathways to undergo, and it covers about 100 sq. miles of floor space is how a lot the air is relating the within of your lungs. They’re that complicated. And that air instantaneously is transferred into your bloodstream, which works on to your coronary heart which then goes on to your mind. After which, it goes all through the remainder of your physique.
And the numbers across the blood are quite simple and necessary. They tie into what that is all about. You might have solely 5 liters or 5 quarts of blood in your physique. So these 5 liters are going to switch by means of your total physique each 60 seconds. You might have 86,500 heartbeats per day. And also you pump that 5 liters as much as 7,600 liters of blood a day. So every thing you’re inhaling, the oxygen, the nitrogen, the helium, all these issues within the air, plus all of the nanoparticulars are going to be transferred to each single cell in your physique, each single minute. And it will definitely accumulates as a result of these nanoparticles are so tiny, it takes years to build up. And as they accumulate in your system, they plug up your filters like your liver and your kidneys notably. And so, when your kidneys get plugged up, and so they measure the standard operation of a set of kidneys in a 20-year-old versus a 60-year-old, the 60-year-old has about 35% effectivity in comparison with the 20-year-old based mostly on this drawback.
The opposite factor that occurs is each muscle wall of your total vascular system, which is round 6,500 miles or 10,000 kilometers, every muscle wall has the peristaltic motion of a pulse, billions and billions of pulses each minute which might be transferring the blood by means of your system, these muscle partitions get crammed up with these pollution. They get jammed in there finally, and that’s what causes hardened arteries. Individuals take into consideration by means of the studying, which is, such as you talked about, essential. However what I observed is that each one the individuals who have been actually well being aware, consuming the most effective meals, being aware of their surroundings, ensuring their homes are clear. Ensuring that they’re hydrating, ensuring that they’re meditating, they’re conscious, they’re form, proper? They’re doing all of the issues that they need to be doing. Everybody was nonetheless dying on the common age, which I knew meant that we have been lacking one thing very, very huge. As a result of even health-conscious folks have a median age of between 81 and 85 years outdated versus people who find themselves not health-conscious averaging between 74 and 79. So relying on what folks have been doing, properly, that’s not very thrilling.
For those who might have the organic age of a 25 to a 35-year-old, indefinitely, the place you’re getting truly more healthy day-after-day going ahead, that’s the important thing efficiency indicator that we’re speaking about at the moment that we will obtain. So when your cells plug up, meaning your organs should not functioning as properly. That implies that you’re opening up your self to potential illness signs, like coronary heart illness, Alzheimer’s dementia, strokes, coronary heart assaults, cancers, and so forth. As a result of your physique can’t proceed to be useful when it has all these contaminants increase. And the blood simply retains distributing it, and the blood system can’t get it out quick sufficient.
The opposite drawback we now have is the meals doesn’t have the suitable minerals anymore. Properly, it doesn’t have the suitable minerals. Properly, folks will blame, you understand, every thing from the Second World Battle on the place they did monocropping. That’s an issue, however for 1000’s of years, the minerals have been washed out of the soil already. As a result of distilled water is rain, and that’s a solvent. And it rains on the earth for tens of 1000’s of years, washing the minerals within the soil down into the water desk, and now it’s gone. It goes from the water desk to the streams to the rivers to the tributaries, and it goes out to the ocean.
So what I discovered is an actual easy repair to the issue. Once you go to the ocean and also you get the concentrated licensed pure sea minerals of their broad spectrum, unrefined, of their unique state, and also you devour them in liquid all through the day, like on this glass proper right here, is electrolytic fluid that I make day-after-day. I batch make it, so I make seven or eight liters of this. So I solely drink two to 3 liters a day of this. However that is the uncooked materials. It seems that your physique makes use of to provide clear blood. And your physique is producing blood 24 hours a day. But it surely doesn’t produce even near sufficient. As a result of it doesn’t have sufficient uncooked materials to provide the quantity of blood that may clear itself out. Your blood depends on the filters, and the filters get plugged up. So the extra that your liver and kidneys lose their effectivity, the sooner the buildup occurs. So whenever you’re younger, you don’t discover it a lot. However by the point you’re 50, 60, it’s like, you discover issues. You’ll discover mind perform, you’ll discover your endocrine system just isn’t working as properly, your digestive system, your circulatory, your respiratory, your entire system modifications. It isn’t getting higher.
So, so as to reverse that, and it took me 15 years to really discover the clue in to what the answer was, and I needed to be suggested. And it was like taking items of the puzzle and eventually getting sufficient items and the large ones that have been lacking to see the image. And I engaged the total protocol simply after I turned 64 years outdated. By the point I turned 65, I used to be residing in a completely totally different physique that’s now measurable to be between a 25 and a 35-year-old organic well being. My cardiovascular system improved dramatically, my digestive system.
So anybody listening and also you your self, Katie, are on the forefront of all this stuff. You realize that the explanation that persons are taken with this stuff is since you need to have a physique that’s in nice situation so long as doable. As a result of then you definitely could be extra useful as a result of the older you get, the wiser you turn out to be, the extra skilled you might be, the extra invaluable you might be. So should you get an additional 10 years and one other additional 10 years and one other additional 10 years, and you retain doing that with these ideas, you turn out to be increasingly more invaluable on the earth to your family members, to your colleagues, to your pals, to folks you carry worth to. And that’s the aim, is to remain alive bodily so long as humanly doable. However the caveat is it’s a must to have exceptionally good well being. As a result of in any other case, should you search for the longest-living folks on Earth, that’s not the image we wish as a result of they give the impression of being horrible, after which they die. And the longer they dwell, the extra they endure, and the extra they’re sad till they lastly cross. So this isn’t what we’re speaking about. We’re speaking about getting happier. And having a happier life each single day. And the place you’ve gotten nice relationships. So what’s an important relationship which you can have, is the connection with your self. Simply take into consideration you, Katie. What’s your relationship like with your self?
Katie: I’d say I’m very grateful that it’s a lot, a lot better than it was once after years of studying to do issues like audit my self-talk and ask higher questions and make extra loving statements internally. And in addition, by means of numerous the issues that we’ve talked about in previous conversations of nurturing the bodily physique, I feel additionally helps nurture your inside expertise as properly and vice versa. Prefer it creates very optimistic suggestions loops. I feel I’m a lot gentler and kinder to myself than I was. And I additionally suppose it’s a journey. So I’m nonetheless, after all, on it and nonetheless studying, however I’m very grateful for the place I’m on this journey proper now.
Ian: Yeah, for positive. And from the time I first met you again in 2012 to at the moment, I see an unlimited enchancment in so many areas of your life due to that actual fact. So we take a look at our our bodies, and I name that physiology as a result of that’s what it’s. So our physiology is our bodily being, our bodily expertise. And you are taking people who find themselves passionate about any topic, perhaps it’s music or artwork, or perhaps they’re into, you understand, good automobiles or stunning houses or structure or no matter they’ve an curiosity in. What do you do when you are interested in a topic is you be taught every thing you probably can about that topic.
And so an important factor to you on this bodily world, on this temporal life we now have, is to grasp how the physique operates. What are the mechanisms? How will we help our physique’s skill to keep up itself? As a result of we will help the upkeep, however our physique is routinely sustaining itself. So these ideas begin within the physiological world. Lots of people say, “Oh, you understand, I need to change the outcomes.” You realize, lots of people have dangerous pores and skin, or they’ve poor digestion, or they get coronary heart illness or they get most cancers. And people present up because the outcomes on the very prime of the pyramid. Properly, on the backside of the pyramid is the physiology. However on the prime of the pyramid is the signs and the leads to the physiological world. Properly, what’s in between your physiology on the backside and the highest is you’ve gotten streams of knowledge. Your physique is producing, you possibly can think about the quantity of knowledge going by means of. It’s greater than any laptop system ever. Each system in your physique is speaking to your mind, which is speaking again by means of the center and the intestine. And that system needs to be optimized.
So folks say, “Properly, your habits is poor, you’ve gotten dangerous habits. You’re not consuming proper, you’re not doing this, you’re not doing that, you’re not getting correct sleep, you’re not managing your stress.” You may level in any respect the issues that persons are doing flawed within the behavioral world, and that’s why you’re getting dangerous outcomes. That’s true. You may’t inform any person to simply change their habits. That’s not straightforward. It’s important to go deeper. What impacts your habits is your considering. The way you suppose goes to have an effect on your habits. What impacts your considering? What impacts your considering is how you’re feeling. Your emotions are going to very a lot affect your considering. And your emotions are pushed from emotion. Emotion just isn’t feeling, it’s simply emotion. And the phrase emotion comes from power in movement. The emotion is pushed out of your physiological well-being or sickness. For those who’re not properly physiologically, it creates power and movement that you simply don’t need. That makes you’re feeling dangerous. You is likely to be depressed or anxious. You is likely to be drained and have poor power. You would possibly really feel badly about your self, that you simply’re not ok, or you understand, what’s flawed?
After which that can trigger your considering to be very poor and adverse, creating behaviors which might be looking for a symptom, perhaps it’s alcohol or marijuana or some painkiller or one thing, proper? Whereas when your physiology is dialed in, you get actually highly effective, good information arising into that power emotion, makes you’re feeling unbelievable. You’re pleased to be alive, you’re like, “Oh thank God I discovered all this stuff, and I’m getting this nice feeling.” And then you definitely go into your considering, your considering is vastly improved as a result of now you are taking a brilliant optimistic method to everyone and every thing routinely, no matter circumstance. And that considering then creates habits that’s like, “Hey, I need to do, can I do issues that make me really feel higher?” And your habits begins to tune proper into your considering, then that delivers superior outcomes on the prime, which then feeds all the way in which again down into your physiology to enhance it since you’re in a cycle. So from the highest, it feeds the underside. The underside then goes up, and it will get this vortex going upward the place you’re elevated.
Whereas whenever you’re going the wrong way, when your physiology is getting harmed, since you didn’t know the best way to help the meanings of it. And your emotions are, it’s like a enterprise. For those who don’t have cash within the account to make payroll, how do you’re feeling? Unhealthy, proper? You’re not pleased. Your feelings have pushed within the enterprise aspect. So there’s so many analogies that we might give, however on the finish of the day, it’s you who will get the reward for doing the suitable factor, and it’s you who pays the value you possibly can’t afford should you do the flawed factor. So we don’t need to discuss, “Oh, I’ve obtained to get extra willpower.” No, that’s not the way it works. We go proper to the depths, proper to our our bodies. So the elephant within the room is to provide clear blood to repair the respiration drawback. When your bone marrow produces wonderful quantity of fresh, high-quality blood 24 hours a day since you’re feeding it the uncooked materials within the type of these sea minerals then, that clear blood begins to take away all these issues which might be inflicting that decline. Now you’re on a slight incline on a regular basis. Your physique reverse ages. It takes you again to that 25- to 35-year-old. And I say that as a result of that’s your prime at 25. That’s when your prefrontal cortex is absolutely developed. Now you might be that one that you’re now going to both get higher or worsen over time.
In order that’s a key efficiency indicator. I’m feeling higher each single day. I’ve extra flexibility, extra mobility, extra agility. I’ve extra sustainable power. I’ve obtained extra endurance. My mind is working much better. I’ve a greater reminiscence. My endocrine system is producing all the suitable hormones on the proper time of the day and the suitable time of the month. I’ve my autonomic nervous system is tremendous pleased. I can put myself in parasympathetic anytime I select. I can put myself in sympathetic stress anytime I need to get the job performed. However I flipped proper out of that once more, again to parasympathetic. I get the deepest sleeps. I get completely rejuvenated at nighttime. I get up within the morning able to go for the day. And that is the important thing efficiency indicator that will get higher and higher the extra you be taught and the extra you do the suitable issues.
Katie: Properly, and I like this about you since you appear to have an countless curiosity, which I like. And I, like as you talked about, we’ve been associates for now over 10 years, and we’ve gotten to have so many desirable conversations as you retain asking questions and maintain discovering new solutions. And also you’re at all times very solutions-focused, which I like, not problems-focused. And this particularly traces up a lot with, I’ve not performed as a lot analysis as you, however I maintain coming again to minerals being so key and the way our trendy life-style doesn’t set us up for fulfillment with out some intentionality right here due to, as you talked about, issues are already depleted.
We’ve been advised to keep away from issues like minerals and salt for a very long time. And after I take a look at the information such as you, I checked out locations like Blue Zones, and everyone desires to hone in on did they eat meat or not? Did they drink wine or not? And what stood out to me was they sometimes lived in very mineral-rich areas and nurtured actually sturdy group. And I’d preface that doubtlessly these two components are far more necessary than whether or not or not they did or didn’t drink wine. However I like that you simply’re open to this dialog with minerals and particularly the standard as a result of I feel I’ve seen this play out in my well being for positive. My organic age I not too long ago examined was nearly 10 years beneath my precise age. So it was about 26, I consider. And I feel as I dial this stuff in additional, I would see that quantity even go down extra. However are you able to discuss why this isn’t your common complement or answer that you’d encounter? I do know you’ve talked in regards to the organic degree and the blood degree of this and why it’s so necessary. However on a extra particular degree, what does that arc seem like? How rapidly can our physique transfer again to a greater state after we get this stuff dialed in?
Ian: Properly, it’s a really fast motion. So relying on how outdated you might be presently, like should you’re 20 years outdated, you possibly can keep the 20-year-old standing for an indefinitely very long time, like constantly. If you’re a 64 years outdated like I used to be, it took a full 12 months of creating positive I used to be taking a major quantity of the ocean minerals all day lengthy. And I watched my physique instantly start to alter. So, nevertheless it took a 12 months. It took two and a half full, nearly three full months, to repair an enlarged prostate drawback that I had. I didn’t know why I had enlarged prostate, I simply knew I had that. And I had taken dietary supplements to attempt to assist that. I had used a tool that will assist that. However that wasn’t the answer. As a result of the issue was that I had been respiration all of those nanoparticulates that had plugged up my prostate. The clear blood went in and stuck it. My urinary issues went away. The libido issues went away. And now my prostate’s like a younger man once more. So I used to be like, that solely was two and a half to 3 months.
My cardiovascular system. Your cardiovascular system will enhance instantly the primary day, and it will likely be incremental just a bit bit each single day. And what I discovered was that I had a cardiovascular drawback that I didn’t know existed. As a result of after I measure my blood stress, my blood stress was at 115 over 65, like an athlete, for a few years. Quickly as I began ingesting the correct amount of sea minerals and produced extra clear blood, like much more clear blood, my blood stress began to climb. Within the first month, it went as much as 180 over 120. And should you have been to go to a physician, he’d go, “Ian, what are you doing? You’re at 180 over 120. That’s hypertension.” And I say, “Properly, truly, I’m ingesting salt water.” He goes, “No, you bought to cease that. It’s important to cease ingesting the salt water. Didn’t you understand that salt causes hypertension? How a lot are you ingesting?” “Properly, I’m ingesting a pound of salt a month in liquid type.” “Oh, no, no, you bought to cease that fully. And we obtained to place you on diuretics. As a result of you’ve gotten means an excessive amount of blood in your system. You’ve obtained to cut back the quantity of blood. You’ve obtained hardened arteries, sir. You might have kidneys which might be plugged up. You’re making an attempt to power extra blood by means of kidneys which might be solely working at 35%. You bought to reverse this.” And I’d go, “Properly, sir, truly ingesting salt water doesn’t trigger that.” “Sure, it does. It’s the one factor you began doing that induced it. You might have excellent blood stress, and hastily, you’re at 180 or 120. Properly, simply hold on a bit.”
And inside seven months of ingesting the identical quantity day-after-day, my blood stress went right down to regular ranges. I used to be nonetheless ingesting simply as a lot. Properly, what occurred is my clear blood went in and cleaned out all these nanoparticles, these razor blades, that had embedded themselves within the muscle partitions of my cardiovascular system, which is 6,500 miles in size. They usually obtained supple and younger once more. And my blood stress went again to regular. Just because the clear blood cleaned it out. It wasn’t the salt water that induced it. It was the gorgeous quantities of volumes of fresh blood that induced it, and that additionally mounted the issue.
My mind perform went means up as a result of we’re electrolytic beings. So should you discuss these, that is the last word bio-compatible bioidentical electrolyte that you’re actually a strolling ocean, 80% of your physique is electrolytic fluid. For those who cry a tear, what does it style like? Ocean water. For those who sweat, what does that style like? Salt, ocean water. You might have blood and lymph fluids, 80% of your physique is like ocean water. And since you’re ingesting water with out the ocean minerals in it, the water is eradicating these treasured minerals out of your system that you simply want very a lot. Individuals say, “Properly, I drink mineral water.” Properly, let me inform you, the mineral water that’s dissolved rocks as a result of water is a solvent, dissolving rock. That’s not the minerals you possibly can construct blood with. That doesn’t assist you to. And the meals has all been depleted. So we merely go to the ocean, get the licensed pure stuff that we now have in place. And we devour it, and that’s the most important sport changer. Everybody will discover a myriad of gorgeous upgrades and modifications as they undergo somewhat little bit of a curler coaster journey as a result of it does have an effect on you. So the symptom of 180 over 120 I now understand just isn’t hypertension. Now, can I inform you one other story that can shock you?
Katie: Completely.
Ian: This entails my spouse. And persons are going to freak out after they hear this. I advised her about this. And he or she’s by no means actually been a brilliant adamant well being advocate, however she’s at all times lived a reasonably wholesome life. You realize, she runs our farm as all natural meals. And he or she began ingesting the salt water. She has had seven youngsters. We had seven youngsters collectively. And so her physique was obese in consequence as a result of she by no means actually paid consideration to numerous the stuff. And her blood stress began to go up. Inside three months, the blood stress monitor that I take advantage of at residence would not learn. It goes as much as 330, and it might go to an error. And I assumed it was my machine that was the issue. So I took her right down to the skilled unit of the drug retailer. She obtained on that, and she or he maxed it out and it went into an error. She was not less than 400 over one thing in that class. And he or she felt completely fantastic. And he or she saved ingesting. She didn’t cease. She didn’t freak out. She didn’t go, “Oh my God, I’m going to die.” She didn’t do any of these issues. She saved ingesting the salt water.
And her blood stress went proper again right down to regular ranges inside eight months. It took her eight months. And so I spotted, “Maintain it. I feel we’re being advised some misinformation about blood stress.” She didn’t have any disagreeable signs from having blood stress at that degree. What’s occurring? Now she feels actually good in her blood stress, right down to regular ranges. So what’s that each one about? So we’re scared, we’re scared by what we predict is correct scientific information, you can’t have that occur to you. Now, I didn’t count on that to try this to her, I’d have thought that was very harmful, however she obtained by means of it completely fantastic. She was completely useful the entire time. And if I’d have by no means checked her blood stress for eight months after which she checked it, and she or he was regular, I’d have thought, no drawback. However as a result of we checked it and we discovered it was astronomically what could be thought of excessive, nevertheless it didn’t matter. I feel she broke a world document. She’s 62 years outdated. So, it’s, life is a thriller.
Katie: Properly, and I like this as a result of I really feel prefer it actually challenges numerous the assumptions associated to issues like salt consumption and blood stress and what they really imply. And I feel this goes again to first ideas and asking higher inquiries to get higher solutions. I like that you simply additionally talked about, you understand, we at all times hear that our physique is, the vast majority of our physique is water, however that’s not truly an correct assertion. Nearly all of our physique is salt water. And so, I actually suppose over simply over-hydrating with out the mineral part most likely can do extra hurt than good over the long term, particularly relying on the supply of that water as properly.
However I additionally at all times return to, you understand, the physique desires to maneuver towards a state of thriving. It desires to heal. It’s a pure state, and we now have to determine the best way to help it in what it already does. Such as you stated, it’s not that any complement or this something is doing it for you. It’s simply serving to your physique do what it naturally desires to do and is designed to do. However I simply discover it so ironic that we’ve been advised for thus lengthy that salt particularly is dangerous for us. And if you find yourself speaking about these tales which might be simply so putting and the way that has modified for each you and on your spouse, and I’d guess for a lot of different folks now as properly.
Ian: Oh yeah, for positive, everybody. There was one colleague that I’ve who’s 19, and she or he began ingesting the salt water. I checked her inside three months. She’s an athlete. Her blood stress by no means moved one single iota. It didn’t go up in any respect. She had athletic blood stress the entire time. Doesn’t matter how a lot saltwater she drinks. It’s going to remain excellent as a result of she hasn’t breathed the 160 million liters of air but.
And so, what’s going on now could be each single day, what I breathe in, now leaves. I’ve gotten rid of the buildup. My lungs for one full month, it began at seven months into this course of. And I’d had respiratory points as a result of I labored within the oil area for 17 years, and I obtained actually contaminated. I began coughing up white glue. I had no no fever, no an infection in any respect. These things I used to be coughing up, each half-hour I used to be coughing up, this was actually bizarre. I’m most filled with the stuff I needed to spit out in the bathroom. And it got here out like glue. It had no colour and no style. And it was a whole month of hacking these items up. And persons are taking a look at me in public going, “What’s flawed with you?” If I used to be at an occasion and I’m having to depart each half-hour to cough, and I imply, I needed to cough it like an train program to get it up as a result of it was so sticky. After which I had a couple of month and a half the place it stopped, after which it began once more for an additional month, after which it simply completed. Apparently, it’s performed as a result of I haven’t had it occur once more. However we’ll see. However our lungs are this large matrix. So respiratory was instantly mounted.
And the opposite factor that I observed was my digestive well being obtained excellent. As a result of whenever you drink these sea minerals within the water on a relentless foundation, additionally it is the uncooked materials that you simply make hydrochloric acid with. The secret is chloric. These are chloride minerals. So now, my hydrochloric acid is on the highest high quality that has ever been in my total life. Every part I eat, whether or not I might eat proteins and fat, it doesn’t matter how a lot, I don’t want any extra digestive enzymes, no probiotics. I’ve two to 3 bowel actions a day. My full system is squeaky clear from entrance to again. And that was like, I used to be like, “Wow.” You realize, folks become older, they begin to have intestine issues. Like diverticulitis, leaky intestine, IBS, Crohn’s, GERD, all that stuff is all as a result of the hydrochloric acid high quality is getting decrease and decrease as a result of they’re diluting the minerals.
Now folks discuss pH. Now they’ve the pH weight-reduction plan, you bought to have excessive pH. Properly, that’s a mythology as a result of the minerals stability your pH completely. Your abdomen has 1.5 pH. Your liver’s working at 5.8. Your kidneys at 5.6. All these totally different organs have various things. Your blood is at all times 7.365. It simply retains it there always. So placing the minerals in provides you the gasoline. That is precise gasoline. It’s mind gasoline. It’s cardiovascular gasoline. It’s respiratory and so forth. It’s gasoline. So that you give your self good clear gasoline all day lengthy and it eliminates all them since you’re respiration the tire mud. Only for instance, tires are made from rubber, cotton, epoxes, resins, plastics, microplastics, chemical substances, and metals. And also you’re respiration it. You may’t count on to have a protracted, lengthy, lengthy, extraordinarily lengthy, good, wholesome life should you don’t do one thing about it.
So that is the elephant within the room that we now have handled. And anybody who does it finds out for themselves. And the one means you possibly can know Katie, and that’s what you’ve been doing, is you discovered, oh, that you simply began doing it. It teaches you by supplying you with the outcomes. And also you see that on the prime of the pyramid, which is the place we need to dwell.
Katie: I like that. And I like that it’s like, with that analogy, it’s the bottom of the pyramid that we’re addressing, not the signs that present up on the prime, which is a way more efficient long-term technique. And I like additionally that you simply talked about {the electrical} part as a result of I learn the e book years in the past, The Physique Electrical, and it reframed how I thought of my physique and what I put in my physique. And I really feel like this has been one other piece that I’m, such as you stated, experimenting with and, to date, having nice outcomes with. And I feel it comes again to minerals a lot. And it is a recurring theme on this podcast, for positive. And I like that we obtained to take it even a degree deeper this time. And also you have been capable of clarify the lung degree, the blood degree, how that is so intricately linked to each single cell in our physique.
