Hey 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 area and how one can repair it. And that is in all probability not a subject that you’d guess, and it won’t be the one you’re pondering of, even if you happen to’re guessing. And I’m right here with my buddy Ian Clark, who when he was 46 years outdated, he had plenty of life-threatening well being points hit him abruptly. And he, like I used to be, was compelled to begin looking for his personal options. And refusing to simply accept a damaging 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 practically sufficient and definitely not on the degree and the nuance that he explains it immediately on this episode. So undoubtedly hearken to this one concerning the elephant within the room with regards 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 a part of Ian Clark. Ian, welcome. It’s all the time such a pleasure to get to speak to you, and I’m so glad we get to have this dialog immediately.

Ian: Katie, yeah, it’s been some time. You’re wanting nice.

Katie: Effectively, 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 believe are some actually necessary subjects immediately. I believe to begin broad, the title for this episode is concerning the elephant within the room and the well being area. So I believe that’s the place we begin. What’s the elephant within the room?

Ian: Effectively, the elephant within the room is all the time one thing that’s not apparent, it seems. We all the time assume 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 probably 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, which means 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 respiratory.

And we all know that mathematically and scientifically they exist. As a result of we’re driving automobiles which produce huge quantities of air pollution like tire mud and brake mud. I’m not so anxious concerning the gas. The automobiles are fairly environment friendly burning gas. However the tire mud and the brake mud are two massively big issues of those nanoparticles we breathe, they appear to be 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 how one can repair that drawback. However that’s the large elephant within the room that individuals are lacking.

Katie: And what are among the results that that is having on the human physique? I imply, it is smart. I’ve all the time thought when it comes to triage, everyone will get so involved with what they eat and the dietary supplements they take, which, in fact, may be crucial as nicely. However after we take a look at it on an quantity of affect degree, we’re respiratory all day, day-after-day, even whereas we’re sleeping. Our hydration, I believe, 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 respiratory all day, day-after-day, looks like tremendous necessary. So what are among the issues that occur to the physique after we’re getting that buildup of the whole lot from the air?

Ian: Effectively, 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 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 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 complete 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 the whole lot 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 drawback.

The opposite factor that occurs is each muscle wall of your complete 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 can be transferring the blood by means 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. Individuals take into consideration by means of the studying, which is, such as you talked about, crucial. However what I observed is that each one the individuals who have been actually well being acutely aware, consuming the most effective meals, being acutely aware of their setting, ensuring their homes are clear. Ensuring that they’re hydrating, ensuring that they’re meditating, they’re conscious, they’re type, 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 large. As a result of even health-conscious folks have a mean 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, nicely, that’s not very thrilling.

In case you 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 immediately that we will obtain. So when your cells plug up, which means your organs aren’t functioning as nicely. 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 not proceed to be purposeful 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 drawback we now have is the meals doesn’t have the suitable minerals anymore. Effectively, it doesn’t have the suitable minerals. Effectively, folks will blame, you already know, the whole lot from the Second World Conflict 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 authentic 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 a few liters a day of this. However that is the uncooked materials. It seems that your physique makes use of to supply 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 supply 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 operate, you’ll discover your endocrine system isn’t working as nicely, your digestive system, your circulatory, your respiratory, your complete system modifications. It’s not getting higher.

So, in an effort to reverse that, and it took me 15 years to truly 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 large ones that have been lacking to see the image. And I engaged the complete protocol simply after I turned 64 years outdated. By the point I turned 65, I used to be dwelling in a very 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 these items. You already know that the rationale that individuals are enthusiastic about these items is since you need to have a physique that’s in nice situation so long as attainable. As a result of then you definately may be extra purposeful as a result of the older you get, the wiser you develop into, the extra skilled you’re, the extra useful you’re. So if you happen to get an additional 10 years and one other further 10 years and one other further 10 years, and you retain doing that with these ideas, you develop into increasingly more useful on the earth to your family members, to your colleagues, to your mates, to folks you deliver worth to. And that’s the objective, is to remain alive bodily so long as humanly attainable. However the caveat is it’s a must to have exceptionally good well being. As a result of in any other case, if you happen to search for the longest-living folks on Earth, that’s not the image we wish as a result of they appear 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 have got 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 might say I’m very grateful that it’s a lot, significantly 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 likewise, by means of loads of the issues that we’ve talked about in previous conversations of nurturing the bodily physique, I believe additionally helps nurture your inside 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 assume 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 immediately, I see an enormous 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 smitten by any topic, perhaps it’s music or artwork, or perhaps they’re into, you already know, good automobiles 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 the whole lot 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 grasp 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 will help the upkeep, however our physique is robotically sustaining itself. So these ideas begin within the physiological world. Lots of people say, “Oh, you already know, I need to change the outcomes.” You already know, 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 high of the pyramid. Effectively, on the backside of the pyramid is the physiology. However on the high of the pyramid is the signs and the leads to the physiological world. Effectively, what’s in between your physiology on the backside and the highest is you have got 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 must be optimized.

So folks say, “Effectively, your habits is poor, you have got 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 possibly can level in any respect the issues that individuals are doing flawed within the behavioral world, and that’s why you’re getting dangerous outcomes. That’s true. You possibly can’t inform anyone to simply change their habits. That’s not straightforward. It’s important to go deeper. What impacts your habits is your pondering. The way you assume goes to have an effect on your habits. What impacts your pondering? What impacts your pondering is how you are feeling. Your emotions are going to very a lot impression your pondering. And your emotions are pushed from emotion. Emotion 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. In case you’re not nicely physiologically, it creates power and movement that you just don’t need. That makes you are feeling dangerous. You could be depressed or anxious. You could be drained and have poor power. You would possibly really feel badly about your self, that you just’re not ok, or you already know, what’s flawed?

After which that can trigger your pondering to be very poor and damaging, creating behaviors which can be searching 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 developing into that power emotion, makes you are feeling implausible. You’re pleased to be alive, you’re like, “Oh thank God I realized all these items, and I’m getting this nice feeling.” And then you definately go into your pondering, your pondering is vastly improved as a result of now you’re taking an excellent constructive method to everyone and the whole lot robotically, no matter circumstance. And that pondering 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 pondering, then that delivers superior outcomes on the high, 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 how one can help the meanings of it. And your emotions are, it’s like a enterprise. In case you don’t have cash within the account to make payroll, how do you are 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 if you happen to do the flawed factor. So we don’t need to discuss, “Oh, I’ve acquired 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 supply clear blood to repair the respiratory 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 can 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’re that one who 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 acquired 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 carried out. 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: Effectively, 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 buddies for now over 10 years, and we’ve gotten to have so many desirable conversations as you retain asking questions and hold discovering new solutions. And also you’re all the time very solutions-focused, which I like, not problems-focused. And this particularly traces up a lot with, I’ve not carried out as a lot analysis as you, however I hold coming again to minerals being so key and the way our fashionable way of life doesn’t set us up for achievement 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 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 usually lived in very mineral-rich areas and nurtured actually robust neighborhood. And I might preface that probably these two components are rather more necessary than whether or not or not they did or didn’t drink wine. However I like that you just’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 not too long ago examined was virtually 10 years beneath my precise age. So it was about 26, I imagine. And I believe as I dial these items 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 concerning 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 appear to be? How rapidly can our physique transfer again to a greater state after we get these items dialed in?

Ian: Effectively, it’s a really fast motion. So relying on how outdated you’re presently, like if you happen to’re 20 years outdated, you possibly can preserve the 20-year-old standing for an indefinitely very long time, like repeatedly. If you’re a 64 years outdated like I used to be, it took a full 12 months of constructing certain 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, virtually 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 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 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 a few months.

My cardiovascular system. Your cardiovascular system will enhance instantly the primary day, and it is going to 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 once I measure my blood strain, my blood strain was at 115 over 65, like an athlete, for a few years. Quickly as I began consuming the correct amount of sea minerals and produced extra clear blood, like much more clear blood, my blood strain began to climb. Within the first month, it went as much as 180 over 120. And if you happen to have 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, “Effectively, truly, I’m consuming salt water.” He goes, “No, you bought to cease that. It’s important to cease consuming the salt water. Didn’t you already know that salt causes hypertension? How a lot are you consuming?” “Effectively, I’m consuming a pound of salt a month in liquid type.” “Oh, no, no, you bought to cease that utterly. And we acquired to place you on diuretics. As a result of you have got method an excessive amount of blood in your system. You’ve acquired to scale back the quantity of blood. You’ve acquired hardened arteries, sir. You might have kidneys which can be plugged up. You’re attempting to power extra blood by means of kidneys which can be solely working at 35%. You bought to reverse this.” And I might go, “Effectively, sir, truly consuming salt water doesn’t trigger that.” “Sure, it does. It’s the one factor you began doing that precipitated it. You might have good blood strain, and rapidly, you’re at 180 or 120. Effectively, simply dangle on a bit.”

And inside seven months of consuming the identical quantity day-after-day, my blood strain went right down to regular ranges. I used to be nonetheless consuming simply as a lot. Effectively, 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. And so they acquired supple and younger once more. And my blood strain went again to regular. Just because the clear blood cleaned it out. It wasn’t the salt water that precipitated it. It was the attractive quantities of volumes of fresh blood that precipitated it, and that additionally mounted the issue.

My mind operate went method up as a result of we’re electrolytic beings. So if you happen to 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. In case you cry a tear, what does it style like? Ocean water. In case you 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 consuming water with out the ocean minerals in it, the water is eradicating these valuable minerals out of your system that you just want very a lot. Individuals say, “Effectively, I drink mineral water.” Effectively, let me let you know, 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 aid you. 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 largest sport changer. Everybody will discover a myriad of gorgeous upgrades and modifications as they undergo a bit 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 isn’t hypertension. Now, can I let you know one other story that can shock you?

Katie: Completely.

Ian: This entails my spouse. And individuals are going to freak out after they hear this. I instructed her about this. And he or she’s by no means actually been an excellent adamant well being advocate, however she’s all the time lived a reasonably wholesome life. You already know, she runs our farm as all natural meals. And he or she began consuming the salt water. She has had seven kids. We had seven kids collectively. And so her physique was chubby consequently as a result of she by no means actually paid consideration to loads of the stuff. And her blood strain began to go up. Inside three months, the blood strain 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 assumed it was my machine that was the issue. So I took her right down to the skilled unit of the drug retailer. She acquired on that, and she or he maxed it out and it went into an error. She was no less than 400 over one thing in that class. And he or she felt completely tremendous. And he or she saved consuming. 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 consuming the salt water.

And her blood strain went proper again right 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 strain.” She didn’t have any disagreeable signs from having blood strain at that degree. What’s occurring? Now she feels actually good in her blood strain, right down to regular ranges. So what’s that each one about? So we’re scared, we’re scared by what we expect is correct scientific information, you can not have that occur to you. Now, I didn’t count on that to try this to her, I might have thought that was very harmful, however she acquired by means of it completely tremendous. She was completely purposeful the entire time. And if I might have by no means checked her blood strain for eight months after which she checked it, and she or he was regular, I might have thought, no drawback. However as a result of we checked it and we discovered it was astronomically what can be thought of excessive, nevertheless it didn’t matter. I believe she broke a world report. She’s 62 years outdated. So, it’s, life is a thriller.

Katie: Effectively, and I like this as a result of I really feel prefer it actually challenges loads of the assumptions associated to issues like salt consumption and blood strain and what they really imply. And I believe this goes again to first ideas and asking higher inquiries to get higher solutions. I like that you just additionally talked about, you already know, we all the time hear that our physique is, nearly all 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 assume over simply over-hydrating with out the mineral element 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 all the time return to, you already know, 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 how one can help it in what it already does. Such as you mentioned, 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 when you’re speaking about these tales which can be simply so putting and the way that has modified for each you and to your spouse, and I might guess for a lot of different folks now as nicely.

Ian: Oh yeah, for certain, everybody. There was one colleague that I’ve who’s 19, and she or he began consuming the salt water. I checked her inside three months. She’s an athlete. Her blood strain by no means moved one single iota. It didn’t go up in any respect. She had athletic blood strain 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 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 subject for 17 years, and I acquired 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 filled with the stuff I needed to spit out in the bathroom. And it got here out like glue. It had no coloration and no style. And it was a whole month of hacking these items up. And individuals are 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 carried out as a result of I haven’t had it occur once more. However we’ll see. However our lungs are this huge matrix. So respiratory was instantly mounted.

And the opposite factor that I observed was my digestive well being acquired good. As a result of whenever you drink these sea minerals within the water on a relentless foundation, it’s also the uncooked materials that you just 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 complete life. All the pieces 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 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 already know, folks grow 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 folks discuss pH. Now they’ve the pH eating regimen, you bought to have excessive pH. Effectively, 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 totally different organs have various things. Your blood is all the time 7.365. It simply retains it there always. So placing the minerals in provides 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 eliminates all them since you’re respiratory the tire mud. Only for instance, tires are fabricated from rubber, cotton, epoxes, resins, plastics, microplastics, chemical compounds, and metals. And also you’re respiratory it. You possibly can’t count on to have an extended, lengthy, lengthy, extraordinarily lengthy, good, wholesome life if you happen to 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 method you possibly can know Katie, and that’s what you’ve been doing, is you discovered, oh, that you just began doing it. It teaches you by supplying you with the outcomes. And also you see that on the high 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 high, which is a way more efficient long-term technique. And I like additionally that you just talked about {the electrical} element 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 mentioned, experimenting with and, up to now, 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 like that we acquired to take it even a degree deeper this time. And also you have 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.
