Hi there and welcome to the Wellness Mama podcast. I’m Katie from wellnessmama.com, and this episode is concerning the elephant within the room within the well being house and the best way to repair it. And that is in all probability not a subject that you’d guess, and it may not be the one you’re considering of, even in the event you’re guessing. And I’m right here with my pal Ian Clark, who when he was 46 years previous, he had a variety of life-threatening well being points hit him all of sudden. And he, like I used to be, was compelled to begin trying to find his personal options. And refusing to just accept a adverse consequence, he selected a pure path, and he traveled the globe uncovering potent cures 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 practically sufficient and positively not on the degree and the nuance that he explains it right this moment on this episode. So positively take heed to this one concerning the elephant within the room relating to well being, and this actually shocking factor that he did and that many individuals are having superb outcomes with and that I’ve additionally been experimenting with. So with out additional ado, let’s be a 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 right this 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 really like that we’re going to get to go deep on what I believe are some actually essential matters right this moment. I believe to begin broad, the title for this episode is concerning the elephant within the room and the well being house. So I believe 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’s not apparent, it seems. We at all times suppose that we’d by no means miss the elephant within the room. Nevertheless it comes proper all the way 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 may’t see or odor or style, you’re respiratory.
And we all know that mathematically and scientifically they exist. As a result of we’re driving vehicles which produce large quantities of air pollution like tire mud and brake mud. I’m not so anxious concerning the gas. The vehicles are fairly environment friendly burning gas. However the tire mud and the brake mud are two massively enormous issues of those nanoparticles we breathe, they appear to be little razor blades. There’s 10 billion kilos of tire mud in the US launched into the ambiance yearly, and it goes a mile and a half above all of the roads the place vehicles drive and vehicles 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 downside. However that’s the massive elephant within the room that individuals are lacking.
Katie: And what are a number of the results that that is having on the human physique? I imply, it is smart. I’ve at all times thought by way of triage, all people will get so involved with what they eat and the dietary supplements they take, which, in fact, may be crucial as nicely. However once we take a look at it on an quantity of affect degree, we’re respiratory all day, on daily basis, even whereas we’re sleeping. Our hydration, I believe, can be essential as a result of we are able to go for much longer with out meals than with out water. However air is the one that may kill us the quickest if we don’t have it. And the one which since we’re respiratory all day, on daily basis, looks like tremendous essential. So what are a number of the issues that occur to the physique once we’re getting that buildup of every little thing from the air?
Ian: Properly, the very first thing that occurs is whenever you breathe air into your lungs, individuals consider their lungs as a balloon as a result of whenever you breathe in, you are 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 pertaining to 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 essential. They tie into what that is all about. You will have solely 5 liters or 5 quarts of blood in your physique. So these 5 liters are going to switch by way of your total physique each 60 seconds. You will 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 little 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 primarily based on this downside.
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 shifting the blood by way of your system, these muscle partitions get stuffed up with these pollution. They get jammed in there ultimately, and that’s what causes hardened arteries. Folks take into consideration by way of the studying, which is, such as you talked about, crucial. However what I seen is that each one the individuals who had been actually well being aware, consuming one of the best meals, being aware of their atmosphere, ensuring their homes are clear. Ensuring that they’re hydrating, ensuring that they’re meditating, they’re conscious, they’re sort, 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 had been lacking one thing very, very huge. As a result of even health-conscious individuals have a median age of between 81 and 85 years previous versus people who find themselves not health-conscious averaging between 74 and 79. So relying on what individuals had been doing, nicely, that’s not very thrilling.
In the event you may have the organic age of a 25 to a 35-year-old, indefinitely, the place you’re getting truly more healthy on daily basis going ahead, that’s the important thing efficiency indicator that we’re speaking about right this moment that we are able to obtain. So when your cells plug up, meaning your organs aren’t functioning as nicely. That signifies 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 not proceed to be useful when it has all these contaminants build up. And the blood simply retains distributing it, and the blood system can’t get it out quick sufficient.
The opposite downside we now have is the meals doesn’t have the suitable minerals anymore. Properly, it doesn’t have the suitable minerals. Properly, individuals will blame, you understand, every little thing from the Second World Battle on the place they did monocropping. That’s an issue, however for hundreds 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 hundreds 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. While 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 eat them in liquid all through the day, like on this glass proper right here, is electrolytic fluid that I make on daily basis. I batch make it, so I make seven or eight liters of this. So I solely drink two to a few 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. Nevertheless it 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 quicker 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 operate, you’ll discover your endocrine system shouldn’t be working as nicely, your digestive system, your circulatory, your respiratory, your complete system adjustments. It’s not 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 at last getting sufficient items and the massive ones that had been lacking to see the image. And I engaged the total protocol simply after I turned 64 years previous. By the point I turned 65, I used to be dwelling in a very completely 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 these items. You understand that the rationale that individuals are fascinated by these items is since you need to have a physique that’s in nice situation so long as doable. As a result of then you definitely may 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 worthwhile you might be. So in the event 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 rules, you turn out to be increasingly more worthwhile on the earth to your family members, to your colleagues, to your mates, to individuals you carry worth to. And that’s the purpose, 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, in the event you search for the longest-living individuals 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 reside, the extra they endure, and the extra they’re sad till they lastly go. 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 might have nice relationships. So what’s an important relationship 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 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 way of a number of the issues that we’ve talked about in previous conversations of nurturing the bodily physique, I believe additionally helps nurture your interior expertise as nicely and vice versa. Prefer it creates very constructive suggestions loops. I believe I’m a lot gentler and kinder to myself than I was. And I additionally suppose it’s a journey. So I’m nonetheless, in fact, on it and nonetheless studying, however I’m very grateful for the place I’m on this journey proper now.
Ian: Yeah, for certain. And from the time I first met you again in 2012 to right this 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’re taking people who find themselves keen about any topic, possibly it’s music or artwork, or possibly they’re into, you understand, good vehicles or lovely properties or structure or no matter they’ve an curiosity in. What do you do when you are interested in a topic is you study every little thing you presumably can about that topic.
And so an important factor to you on this bodily world, on this temporal life we now have, is to know how the physique operates. What are the mechanisms? How will we help our physique’s potential to take care of itself? As a result of we are able to help the upkeep, however our physique is mechanically sustaining itself. So these rules begin within the physiological world. Lots of people say, “Oh, you understand, I need to change the outcomes.” You understand, 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 might have streams of information. Your physique is producing, you may think about the quantity of information going by way of. It’s greater than any pc system ever. Each system in your physique is speaking to your mind, which is speaking again by way of the center and the intestine. And that system needs to be optimized.
So individuals say, “Properly, your conduct is poor, you might have dangerous conduct. 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 individuals are doing mistaken within the behavioral world, and that’s why you’re getting dangerous outcomes. That’s true. You may’t inform someone to only change their conduct. That’s not simple. It’s a must to go deeper. What impacts your conduct is your considering. The way you suppose goes to have an effect on your conduct. What impacts your considering? What impacts your considering is how you are feeling. Your emotions are going to very a lot influence your considering. And your emotions are pushed from emotion. Emotion shouldn’t be feeling, it’s simply emotion. And the phrase emotion comes from vitality in movement. The emotion is pushed out of your physiological well-being or sickness. In the event you’re not nicely physiologically, it creates vitality and movement that you simply don’t need. That makes you are feeling dangerous. You is perhaps depressed or anxious. You is perhaps drained and have poor vitality. You would possibly really feel badly about your self, that you simply’re not adequate, or you understand, what’s mistaken?
After which that may trigger your considering to be very poor and adverse, creating behaviors which might be searching for a symptom, possibly 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 vitality emotion, makes you are feeling unbelievable. You’re blissful to be alive, you’re like, “Oh thank God I discovered all these items, 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’re taking a brilliant constructive method to all people and every little thing mechanically, no matter circumstance. And that considering then creates conduct that’s like, “Hey, I need to do, can I do issues that make me really feel higher?” And your conduct 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. In the event you don’t have cash within the account to make payroll, how do you are feeling? Unhealthy, proper? You’re not blissful. Your feelings have pushed within the enterprise aspect. So there’s so many analogies that we may 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 may’t afford in the event you do the mistaken factor. So we don’t need to speak about, “Oh, I’ve bought 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 respiratory downside. When your bone marrow produces superb quantity of unpolluted, 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 totally 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 vitality. I’ve bought 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 blissful. 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 study and the extra you do the suitable issues.
Katie: Properly, and I really like this about you since you appear to have an countless curiosity, which I really like. And I, like as you talked about, we’ve been pals 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 really 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 fashionable way of life 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 instructed to keep away from issues like minerals and salt for a very long time. And once I take a look at the info such as you, I checked out locations like Blue Zones, and all people 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 probably these two elements are rather more essential than whether or not or not they did or didn’t drink wine. However I really like that you simply’re open to this dialog with minerals and particularly the standard as a result of I believe I’ve seen this play out in my well being for certain. My organic age I just lately examined was nearly 10 years under my precise age. So it was about 26, I consider. And I believe as I dial these items in additional, I would see that quantity even go down extra. However are you able to speak about why this isn’t your common complement or resolution that you’d encounter? I do know you’ve talked concerning the organic degree and the blood degree of this and why it’s so essential. However on a extra particular degree, what does that arc appear to be? How rapidly can our physique transfer again to a greater state once we get these items dialed in?
Ian: Properly, it’s a really fast motion. So relying on how previous you might be at the moment, like in the event you’re 20 years previous, you may preserve the 20-year-old standing for an indefinitely very long time, like constantly. If you’re a 64 years previous like I used to be, it took a full 12 months of constructing certain I used to be taking a big quantity of the ocean minerals all day lengthy. And I watched my physique instantly start to vary. So, but it surely took a 12 months. It took two and a half full, nearly three full months, to repair an enlarged prostate downside 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 may assist that. However that wasn’t the answer. As a result of the issue was that I had been respiratory all of those nanoparticulates that had plugged up my prostate. The clear blood went in and glued 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 a few months.
My cardiovascular system. Your cardiovascular system will enhance instantly the primary day, and will probably be incremental just a bit bit each single day. And what I discovered was that I had a cardiovascular downside that I didn’t know existed. As a result of once 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 in the event you had been to go to a health care provider, 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 a must 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 utterly. And we bought to place you on diuretics. As a result of you might have approach an excessive amount of blood in your system. You’ve bought to scale back the quantity of blood. You’ve bought hardened arteries, sir. You will have kidneys which might be plugged up. You’re attempting to power extra blood by way 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 brought about it. You will have good blood stress, and swiftly, you’re at 180 or 120. Properly, simply cling on a bit.”
And inside seven months of ingesting the identical quantity on daily basis, my blood stress went all the way 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 bought 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 brought about it. It was the gorgeous quantities of volumes of unpolluted blood that brought about it, and that additionally mounted the issue.
My mind operate went approach up as a result of we’re electrolytic beings. So in the event you speak about these, that is the final word bio-compatible bioidentical electrolyte that you’re actually a strolling ocean, 80% of your physique is electrolytic fluid. In the event you cry a tear, what does it style like? Ocean water. In the event you sweat, what does that style like? Salt, ocean water. You will 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 valuable minerals out of your system that you simply want very a lot. Folks 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 may 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 eat it, and that’s the largest recreation changer. Everybody will discover a myriad of gorgeous upgrades and adjustments as they undergo a bit of little bit of a curler coaster experience as a result of it does have an effect on you. So the symptom of 180 over 120 I now notice shouldn’t be hypertension. Now, can I inform you one other story that may shock you?
Katie: Completely.
Ian: This includes my spouse. And individuals are going to freak out once they hear this. I instructed 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 understand, 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 a number of the stuff. And her blood stress began to go up. Inside three months, the blood stress monitor that I take advantage of at house would not learn. It goes as much as 330, and it will go to an error. And I believed it was my machine that was the issue. So I took her all the way down to the skilled unit of the drug retailer. She bought on that, and he or she maxed it out and it went into an error. She was at the very least 400 over one thing in that class. And he or she felt completely high-quality. 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 all the way down to regular ranges inside eight months. It took her eight months. And so I spotted, “Maintain it. I believe we’re being instructed 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, all the way 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 not have that occur to you. Now, I didn’t anticipate that to try this to her, I’d have thought that was very harmful, however she bought by way of it completely high-quality. 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 he or she was regular, I’d have thought, no downside. However as a result of we checked it and we discovered it was astronomically what can be thought of excessive, but it surely didn’t matter. I believe she broke a world file. She’s 62 years previous. So, it’s, life is a thriller.
Katie: Properly, and I really like this as a result of I really feel prefer it actually challenges a number of the assumptions associated to issues like salt consumption and blood stress and what they really imply. And I believe this goes again to first rules and asking higher inquiries to get higher solutions. I really 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. The vast majority of our physique is salt water. And so, I actually suppose over simply over-hydrating with out the mineral part in all probability can do extra hurt than good over the long term, particularly relying on the supply of that water as nicely.
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 instructed for therefore lengthy that salt particularly is dangerous for us. And if you end up 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 individuals now as nicely.
Ian: Oh yeah, for certain, everybody. There was one colleague that I’ve who’s 19, and he or she 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 good as a result of she hasn’t breathed the 160 million liters of air but.
And so, what’s going on now’s 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 bought actually contaminated. I began coughing up white glue. I had no no fever, no an infection in any respect. These items I used to be coughing up, each half-hour I used to be coughing up, this was actually bizarre. I’m most stuffed with the stuff I needed to spit out in the bathroom. And it got here out like glue. It had no shade and no style. And it was a complete month of hacking these items up. And individuals are me in public going, “What’s mistaken 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 few month and a half the place it stopped, after which it began once more for one more 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 seen was my digestive well being bought good. As a result of whenever you drink these sea minerals within the water on a relentless foundation, it is usually the uncooked materials that you simply make hydrochloric acid with. The bottom line 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 thing I eat, whether or not I may 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 a few 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 understand, individuals become old, 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 individuals speak about pH. Now they’ve the pH food 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 operating at 5.8. Your kidneys at 5.6. All these completely different organs have various things. Your blood is at all times 7.365. It simply retains it there always. So placing the minerals in offers you the gas. That is precise gas. It’s mind gas. It’s cardiovascular gas. It’s respiratory and so forth. It’s gas. So that you give your self good clear gas all day lengthy and it removes all them since you’re respiratory the tire mud. Only for instance, tires are product of rubber, cotton, epoxes, resins, plastics, microplastics, chemical substances, and metals. And also you’re respiratory it. You may’t anticipate to have a protracted, lengthy, lengthy, extraordinarily lengthy, good, wholesome life in the event 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 approach you may know Katie, and that’s what you’ve been doing, is you discovered, oh, that you simply began doing it. It teaches you by providing you with the outcomes. And also you see that on the prime of the pyramid, which is the place we need to reside.
Katie: I really like that. And I really 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 really like additionally that you simply talked about {the electrical} part as a result of I learn the guide 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 this point, having nice outcomes with. And I believe it comes again to minerals a lot. And this can be a recurring theme on this podcast, for certain. And I really like that we bought to take it even a degree deeper this time. And also you had been in a position to clarify the lung degree, the blood degree, how that is so intricately related to each single cell in our physique.
