Minerals
There are 2 kinds of chemicals, inorganic and organic. The living tissues of
the body
cannot healthfully utilize the inorganic chemicals like chlorine,
aluminum, and sodium fluoride. Our body chemistry is composed of 19 organic
minerals, which must come from that which is living or has lived. Even
though the soil contains 16 inorganic minerals, our bodies cannot absorb
them efficiently enough to sustain life. Only a living plant can convert
inorganic minerals into organic minerals. Only plants. For years people have
said that water "is rich in all the minerals". What kind of minerals were
they talking about? Inorganic or organic? Even though the soil beneath our
feet contains 16 inorganic minerals, our bodies cannot absorb them
efficiently enough to sustain life. Humans do not have the same chemistry
that plants do.
All drinking water contains the inorganic mineral calcium carbonate. This
and other inorganic minerals play their part in forming stones within the
body's vital organs.
Chlorine, alum, calcium carbonate, magnesium, carbonate, potassium
carbonate, and other inorganic minerals are put into our drinking water for
cleanliness. The human body needs only hydrogen and oxygen as a natural
solvent in the body chemistry.
Relieve pain by mineral water bathing - yes. Detoxification of body wastes
by mineral water bathing - yes. But drinking this heavy inorganic mineral
water only brings on serious trouble. Dr. Paul C. Bragg: "My sincere and
honest advice to you is: Don't drink inorganic mineralized water!"

Hardening of the Arteries
Calcium carbonate, or lime, is the important ingredient in making cement or
concrete. This is mainly responsible for the "hardening of the arteries".
Doctors call it "arteriosclerosis", which most people believe to be a
natural condition that comes with the passing of the years. It turns the
brain to stone. Hardening of the arteries and calcification of the blood
vessels starts on the day you are born, because from birth we start taking
inorganic chemicals into our bodies.
Tuberculosis will be cured by hydrolized water, good nutrition, sunshine,
fresh air, and deep breathing exercises. No drugs of any kind are necessary.
You must drink ONLY hydrolized water, snow water, vegetable and fruit juices.
If someone is really sick, they should go on a 1 week to ten day fast to get
rid of the toxic wastes in the body, with hydrolized water (hot or cold)
flavored with fresh lemon juice and ¼ to ½ teaspoon of honey if desired. The
body is a self-healing and self-repairing instrument and can recycle and
regenerate into what you want it to be.
The stiffness in all movable joints is not due to the number of years one
has lived. Time is not toxic. The stiffness is brought on by a combination
of toxic acid crystals from an unbalanced, acid diet and drinking water
saturated with inorganic minerals and chemicals (hard water for instance).
Fasting helps to dissolve these encrustations which have been deposited in
these joints.
The misery of arthritis is caused by hard water saturated with inorganic
minerals and an unbalanced diet, forming acid crystals in the movable
joints, plus inactivity of the body in general. Every effect must have a
cause. There is a reason why things happen in the body. Failure to live
according to our design is the cause of most human miseries. Instead of
giving our body’s what they need all the time, many of us give ourselves
what we don’t need.
If calcium and magnesium come from limestone, they are inorganic. Regardless
of how they are powdered and baked, they cannot become part of the organic
chemistry of the body. Beware of any pill that is extracted from
"mineral-rich earth".
The problem of being overweight will be cured also. Gall stones will be
safely squeezed out through the common duct into the small intestine and be
eliminated. Kidney stones will be eliminated as well.
Poor memory and senility is caused by the arteries becoming corroded with
encrustation’s of inorganic materials. These are diseases of degeneration.
This is what we blame on passing years…not on how we have lived. Senility is
actually oxygen starvation of the brain. Soybeans are exceptionally rich in
lecithin, and should be eaten several times weekly. Sunflower seeds, sesame
seeds, and pumpkin seeds are all healthful brain foods. The brain needs
phosphorus. It’s found in all kinds of beans, such as pinto beans, garbanza
beans, dried lima beans and lentils. Other sources are all 100% whole
grains, brown rice, almonds, peanuts and walnuts. Lean meat, egg yolk, and
natural, unprocessed cheese contain organic phosphorus.
Every mineral matters
The body contains 19 essential mineral elements, all of which must be
derived from food:
Calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium are vital for the growth and maintenance
of bone. Potassium, sodium, and chlorine give body fluids their composition
and stability. Calcium, phosphorus and sulfur are essential constituents of
all body cells from which all organs and tissues are composed. Magnesium,
iron, and phosphorus are parts of enzyme systems concerned with the release
of energy from food. Iodine is important to the thyroid gland which controls
growth and the rate at which energy is used. Copper and iron are needed for
the formation of red blood cells.
Sulfur and cobalt are used in the synthesis of some vitamins by the body.
Zinc is an essential part of the insulin molecule.
Organic sodium is a powerful chemical solvent and neutralizer of toxic waste
products. In contrast, table salt (inorganic sodium chloride) not only is
unnecessary but is actually harmful in the body chemistry. Organic sodium in
combination with chlorine it is one of the principal constituents of lymph.
For the transmission of the electric induction current, which is generated
in the nerve spirals by iron of the blood, a salty liquid is necessary (as
is shown by the construction of electric batteries). Organic sodium plays an
important part in the formation of saliva, pancreatic juice and bile. It’s a
fat fighter. It helps to keep the waxy killer, cholesterol, at normal levels
of 150-180. Sodium is essential in purifying the system from carbonaceous
waste products. But again, it must be in organic form, as contained in
fruits and vegetables.
Common table salt (inorganic sodium chloride) can form stones in the body.
Salt can cause encrustation’s in the arteries, veins, and capillaries. Salt
can waterlog body tissues, making them flabby and without skin or muscle
tone. Salt users have high elevations of blood pressure. Inorganic salt is
indigestible and, when eaten in large quantities, cannot be eliminated from
the system. It is therefore deposited in the tissues of the body, and the
craving for water develops from the body’s attempt to make the salt soluble.
Thus the tissues, and the vital organs, become waterlogged. When this
condition reaches the heart, we have congested heart failure. With hardened
arteries and tissues, plus the flabbiness from water logging, the heart
cannot function.
Many times, overweight and obesity is caused by waterlogged tissue. This
will continue if such people use salt on their foods, eat salty canned fish,
salted butter, ham, bacon, lunch meats, salted canned vegetables, salted
frozen dinners, salted cheese, salted popcorn and salted nuts. The kidneys
are most affected by salt. They become weakened and unable to eliminate the
large amount of salt, which is then returned to the tissues. The liver is
another one. Drinking non-hydrolized water mixed with coffee, tea, alcohol,
colas, and other soft drinks – along with ketchup, mustard, and other
seasonings with high salt concentration deteriorates vital tissue and
organs.
The correct salt to us is Solar Sea Salt, which can be gotten at any health
food store. This salt is organic and is utilized by the body, unlike table
salt which is deposited in the tissues because the body cannot digest
inorganic salt.
No wonder most people sicken and die before their time. Man does not die. He
kills himself by faulty haphazard living.
Joint Calcification
Bone spurs and calcified formations are insoluble deposits that get into
tissues and moveable joints from consuming water loaded with inorganic
minerals, salt, and uric acid, plus toxic crystals from an incorrect diet
high in acid. Meat, potatoes, refined flower, white bread, coffee, tea,
sugary desserts, starchy and fatty foods, and proteins are all high in acid
content. Fruits and vegetables (with a few exceptions) are alkaline forming.
A balanced diet is one that is about 3/5 alkaline and 2/5 acid.
Inorganic minerals, salt and toxic acid crystals can deform the toe and
finger nails.
They deform feet and make walking extremely painful, and are a
hideous sight. Inorganic material is a major cause of poor posture. People
whose feet are so loaded with inorganic calcification that they simply lift
their feet up and put them down, no spring in their step.
Many walk like
ducks with toes pointing outward to the sides. Others are stooped and bent
out of shape. Some walk with no knee action. You see those whose steps are
unsteady because their joints are so cemented; while others are so out of
balance that they sway
from side to side as they hobble along. Heads are
carried too far forward, throwing the body off its balance.
By the time people are 40, they are plagued with low back pain. When they
bend over it is positive agony. The whole lower spine is cemented with
inorganic calcification.
By the time one is 40, he has worn out much of the
cartilage that acts as a cushion
to the spinal bones.
Because most humans are totally ignorant about what to put into their
bodies, very few escape being one of the living dead. They drag themselves
through life, relying on some kind of medication to keep them going. They
need a "pep" pill to keep them going during the day and a sleeping pill to
put them to sleep at night.
Even the most primitive people, living under the most natural conditions,
suffered and died before their time because they drank inorganic mineralized
water. For example, American Indians who lived a thousand years ago in
Wisconsin had arthritis because they drank the Lake Michigan water, which is
heavily saturated with inorganic minerals. Even the mummies of ancient
Egypt, some 2500 years or more, show arthritis and other diseases due to
drinking Nile River water. Every time a person turns on the water faucet and
drinks water that has been chemicalized with chlorine, fluoride, and is
saturated with calcium carbonate and other inorganic minerals, he is
jeopardizing his health and life! The human body cannot utilize any
inorganic mineral, whether it comes from a well, spring, river, lake or
ocean.
Among the many manifestations of inorganic calcification are broken facial
capillaries. You will often see the smallest blood vessels, slender as
hairs, showing near the skin. When these tiny capillaries become encrusted,
they expand in size and often rupture, making purplish or reddish blotches,
blocked by inorganic minerals and no longer able to handle the circulation
of the blood or.
Many people of all ages suffer with poor circulation. Some have cold hands,
even on warm days. Many have cold feet. By age 60, most people have patches
of small, blue, broken and expanded veins around their feet and ankles. Poor
circulation is most noticeable in the hands and feet because the blood has
farther to go from the heart to reach these extremities. When the veins
become clogged, the blood trickles through, barely able to bring nourishment
and warmth.
Many humans are plagued by head noises, ringing, buzzing sounds, and
pounding in the ears. The blood vessels in the ears have become hardened and
obstructed with inorganic mineral encrustation’s. In time, the blood vessels
of the ears become so clogged that the person gradually goes deaf.
Inorganic minerals have a degenerating effect upon the eyes. When the
capillaries are encrusted, glasses are prescribed. After a time, stronger
glasses are necessary, and sometimes blindness occurs. You have 3 vicious
enemies to the eyes: inorganic mineral water, toxic poisons from acid
forming food, and uric acid from a diet too heavy in animal proteins.
Do this test to see how much calcification you have:
Stand erect, hands loosely at sides. Now lower the head to the chest and
start a slow rolling movement, around and around. Many people can feel the
inorganic calcification grating as they roll their heads. This shows that
there has been a definite infiltration of insoluble minerals and toxic acid
crystals in the head of the atlas, the spine bone upon which
the head rests.
Also test the moveable joints of the body. Do you have stiffness? How limber
is your spine? Can you raise your hands over your head and bend forward with
the knees stiff to touch the floor with your fingertips? Are you limber
enough to place the palm of your hands on the floor as you keep the knees
stiff?
Stand with your back to a wall. Move forward about 2 feet, then bend
backward and "walk" down the wall with your hands. How far can you go? How
high can you kick? Do you have cracking in your knees when you do a leg
squat? How flexible are your feet? Do you walk with a spring in your step?
Do you have a feeling of suppleness and flexibility in your body? Do you
walk and dance with grace and limberness?
Or do you walk on inorganic calcified encrustation’s that give you misery?
Your stiffness is not due to your age. You can keep your body flexible by
proper care of your body.
