The Energy of
Clay
The following are excerpts from two
excellent books on natural healing and Living Clay.
“If we go back to our base physical
components, we can safely say that we are built from multitudes of
particles held together by electrical bonds. Electrical forces are
what hold atoms and molecules together. Chemical bonds and
reactions depend on these electrical forces. Therefore, all
chemical reactions are, in essence, reorganizations of electrical
forces, which continue to be vital at body levels, i.e., tissues and
organs. When this is all taken into account, a living organism is
shown to be an extremely delicate and intricate electrical system.”
(Homeopathy for Everyone, 1987, Gibson & Gibson.)
“During illness, the vital force is
weak and incapable of supporting the body and its functions. In
health, however, the opposite occurs: the force is strong and is
able to counteract sickness and decay. What keeps the immune system
running is the energy that feeds it, the substance of life. The
body will not run well, or will at least run with all sorts of
mechanical problems, when there is no energy to support it.
When Living Clay is consumed, its
vital force is released into the physical body and mingles with the
vital energy of the body, creating a stronger, more powerful energy
in the host. Its particles are agents of stimulation and
transformation capable of withholding and releasing energy at
impulse. The natural magnetic action transmits a remarkable power
to the organism and helps to rebuild vital potential through the
liberation of latent energy. When it is in contact with the body,
its very nature compels it to release its vital force from which so
many plants and animals feed.
Therefore, in order to create health,
the body must be stimulated and restimulated by another working
energy like Living Clay. When the immune system does not function
at its best, the clay stimulates the body’s inner resources to
awaken the stagnant energy. It supplies the body with the available
magnetism to run well.
Does this mean you have to be sick to
take clay? No, not at all. The best-known characteristic of clay
is that it “acts as needed. ”Living clay is said to propel the
immune system to find a new healthy balance. Reactions are not
forced, but rather triggered into effect, as they are needed. To
put it in other words, clay strengthens the body to a point of
higher resistance. In this way, the body’s natural immune system
has an improved chance of restoring and maintaining health.” (The
Clay Cure, 1998, Ran Knishinsky)

Colon Cleansing
When discussing a colon cleanse, I
think we should broaden our view to the aspect of an Internal
Cleanse of the entire digestive tract. While it is true that a
colon cleanse may be accomplished with clay colonics and drinking
liquid Calcium Bentonite Clay, we will cover every aspect of an
internal cleanse from the mouth, south. In this day and age, we ALL
need to cleanse!
"In a
world where dietary choices are poor, environmental pollution is
heavy, stress levels are high, and exercise is often a last
priority, internal cleansing is more important than ever for
optimum health." ~ Dr. Bernard Jensen
Understanding the basics of how our
digestive system works is vital to understanding personal health.
Before we can fully grasp the extreme importance of internal
cleansing, we must first know what's going on in there. So, let's
start with a quick primer on the digestive system.
Dr. Lindsey Duncan, CN, ND,
provides the following succinct tutorial:
We
live and die by what foods we put in our mouth and how our bodies
assimilate these foods. Digestion starts in our mouths, when we
bite into our food and begin chewing it and mixing it with saliva, a
powerful digestive enzyme. As our food travels down to the stomach,
it mixes with hydrochloric acid, a powerful digestive acid that
liquefies the food and prepares it for further digestion in the
small intestines with help from the pancreas and liver.
Our
intestinal systems are connected to a network of blood vessels and
veins, which wrap around the stomach, small intestine, and bowel.
Our blood receives nutrients from our digested food through this
network of blood vessels, which look and function much like the
roots of a tree, drawing dissolved nutrients out of the intestines
and transporting them to the liver, where they undergo further
breakdown, recombination, and storage. Later, the heart pumps these
nutrients, stored in the liver, to nourish the various living cells
that make up the tissues of the human body. By-products of the
digestive process are passed into the bowel, where they solidify,
and "in a perfect world", are completely excreted from the body.
This
is basically how our body gets nourishment and energy. After it
delivers nutrients throughout the body, the blood also collects
cellular waste materials (by-products of metabolism) and "drops them
off" at appropriate eliminative stations (lung, kidneys, skin,
lymphatic system, colon) where, also, "in a perfect world" they are
quickly excreted from the body.
Unfortunately, our "modern day society" is NOT a perfect world.
Pollutants, toxins, chemicals, fertilizers, growth hormones,
pesticides and other hazards to our health bombard and infiltrate
our air, water and food on a daily basis. Our diets, no longer
wholesome and fresh, consist of fast foods, junk foods, pre-prepared
foods, fatty foods, and devitalized foods. There is no way our
digestive systems can function optimally with the heavy burdens
placed on them on a day-to-day basis. Digestion becomes sluggish,
assimilation becomes inefficient, mal-absorption of nutrients
begins, the metabolism slows down (weight gain!) and elimination
becomes poor.
A clean, properly functioning bowel
is paramount to our well being. Dr. Bernard Jensen, nutritionist,
lecturer and author of over 30 books on natural health care, states
this best:
"Every cell and tissue in the body is fed by the bloodstream, which
is supplied by the bowel. When the bowel is dirty, the blood is
dirty and so are the organs and tissues. It is the bowel that must
be cared for first before any effective healing can take place."
So, how do you know the state of
your bowels? How do you know if you need to do an internal
cleanse? Dr. Duncan writes:
"Many
of my seminar topics focus on internal cleansing and bowel
management. Repeatedly, I am asked the same question by seminar
attendees: "How do I know if I need to cleanse?" My answer is quite
simple... After consulting with over 20,000 patients, I can honestly
state that I have never worked with an individual that did not
directly benefit from detoxifying his or her body. In this day
and age, we ALL need to cleanse! In a world where dietary
choices are poor, environmental pollution is heavy, stress levels
are high, and exercise is often a last priority, internal
cleansing is more important than ever for optimum health."
Okay, I get it. I need to cleanse,
you need to cleanse, EVERYBODY needs to cleanse! How is it done,
and what should be used? According to Ran Knishinsky, author of
The Clay Cure, the best, most natural way to internally cleanse
is with Calcium Bentonite Clay. The following is an excerpt from
his book:
"If the system fails to get rid of
poisons through the bowels, a constipated condition arises in which
the toxins never leave the body. They sit inside and putrefy.
What's worse, the body doesn't know the difference between live food
and dead food in the colon. It will still try to get nourishment
out of waste you would never want to set your eyes upon. Naturally,
this puts a strain on every functioning cell in the body.
Calcium Bentonite Clay’s immediate
action upon the body is directly on the digestive channel. This
involves the clay actually binding with the toxic substances and
removing them from the body with the stool. It performs this job
with every kind of toxin, including those from the environment, such
as heavy metals, and those that occur naturally as by-products of
the body's own health processes, such as metabolic toxins. It's
hard to believe that the body produces its own toxins, but that may
happen as a result of stress, inefficient metabolism, or the
proliferation of free radicals.
The body has no problem ridding itself
of the clay. Don't worry about a tiny brick house being built in
the middle of your colon. The clay assists the body's eliminatory
process by acting as a bulking agent, similar to psyllium fiber,
sweeping out the old matter that doesn't need to be there. It is
not digested in the same manner as food as it passes through the
alimentary canal. Instead, it stimulates intestinal peristalsis,
the muscular contractions that move food and stool through the
bowels. The clay and the adsorbed toxins are both eliminated
together; this keeps the toxins from being reabsorbed into the
bloodstream.
Clay works on the entire organism. No
one part of the body is left untouched by its healing energies. I
don't know of another supplement that is quite as capable as clay of
producing such a wide range of positive reactions."
Our Recommendations for Internal Cleansing
Ran Knishinsky recommends ingesting
clay on a daily basis to maintain optimal health. I agree, and
offer several ways you can do this.
For internal cleansing, you must
ingest clay. You have several options for doing so: you can eat
hydrated clay, drink liquefied clay or stir powder clay into a glass
of water and drink. If you choose to eat clay, Hydrated Clay has a
thick, smooth consistency. Generally, it is suggested that one to
two tablespoons of hydrated clay daily is the proper amount for an
adult. For those who prefer to take their clay in liquid form,
start with one to two ounces of Calcium Bentonite Clay Liquid
daily. If you've never tasted Calcium Bentonite Clay Liquid, you
should know that it has a very creamy smooth consistency, and is
virtually tasteless. It is recommended to take the clay on an empty
stomach for best results. And if you're taking any medication, it
is recommended to wait 1-3 hours before ingesting clay, but please
check with your physician, as medications vary in time release and
content.
People who have made this a part of
their daily routine have been astounded with the outcome. According
to Knishinsky, benefits reported by people using liquid clay for a
period of two to four weeks include: improved intestinal regularity;
relief from chronic constipation, diarrhea, indigestion, and ulcers;
a surge in physical energy; clearer complexion; brighter, whiter
eyes; enhanced alertness; emotional uplift; improved tissue and gum
repair; and increased resistance to infections. Clay works on the
entire organism. No part of the body is left untouched by its
healing energies.
So, begin your internal cleansing
program today. Ingesting Calcium Bentonite Clay on a daily basis
will get your intestines clean, and keep them that way! Make
Calcium Bentonite Clay a part of your daily routine, and experience
all the life-enhancing benefits that Calcium Bentonite Clay has to
give!

Detoxing With
Clay
There is no single treatment of more
value to the human body than a complete full body detoxification
protocol using Calcium Bentonite Clay as the cleansing agent and
carrier for toxin removal.
The great majority of articles on
detox and colon cleansing should be classified as colon cleansers
themselves, because they will most certainly scare the poo right out
of you! They explain how substances that are toxic to our bodies
come at us from all directions: the air we breathe, the food we eat,
the water we drink, the cleaning products we use, and the metabolic
waste produced inside us. Studies have discovered various chemicals
from our foods and environment that indicate man contributes 700,000
tons of pollutants into the air every day, ranging from everyday
household cleaners to cosmetics and hair dyes. That's just the
air! Add in the pesticides and toxins that are found in our water.
Don't forget the chemicals that are routinely fed to the animals we
eat, and the sprayed, preserved, and genetically altered plants we
consume. And that doesn't even factor in the heavy metal poisoning
that's occurring at a truly alarming rate - from the lead in our
paint to the mercury in the fish we eat and the fillings in our
teeth and everything in between. It's truly frightening. The
reports are everywhere.
You can spend weeks reading article
after article, complete with pictures that will keep you awake at
night. We, however, want you to rest easy. We have chosen,
therefore, to concentrate on the benefits of detox - to emphasize
the positive instead of beating you over the head with the all
to prevalent negative. Granted, what we've done to our bodies and
our environment is truly frightening, and the state of our digestive
systems - and consequently our health in general - is nightmarish
because of it. Enough said. Now, here's the good stuff!
The
Benefits of Detoxification
Science has shown that the effects
of detoxification on our body’s cells are nothing short of
miraculous. The following is an excerpt from Natasha Lee's
article "Could Detoxification be the Fountain of Youth?
"Dr.
Alexis Carrel, of the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research
performed an amazing experiment in the early 1900's. He managed to
sustain the life of cells from a chicken embryo by immersing it in a
solution containing all the nutrients necessary for life and
changing the solution daily. The cells took up nutrients from the
nutrient-rich broth and excreted their wastes into the same
solution. The only thing Dr. Carrel did each day was discard the
old solution and replace it with fresh nutrient solution. The
chicken cells lived for 29 years until one night Dr. Carrel's
assistant forgot to change the polluted solution! We do not know
how much longer the cell's life could have been maintained.
Dr. Carrel concluded at the end of
his experiment that the cell is actually immortal. It is merely
the fluid in which it floats which degenerates. He is quoted
saying, "The cell is immortal, renew this fluid at intervals, give
the cell something on which to feed and, so far as we know, the
pulsation of life may go on forever." The average chicken lives
about 7 years. His detoxified, properly nourished chicken cell
lived for 29 years.
It may be hard to believe that the
body could live indefinitely, however, a similar level of vibrant
health and life extension can be created in humans by following the
obvious similar principal.
Every cell in our body excretes
waste material, which becomes toxic, and poisonous to our bodies if
we allow it to build up faster than we renew the fluid in which it
floats. According to the above experiment, this is the cause of
aging and degeneration. Factors such as "time" and ideas such
as "that's just life" fade from the picture, with new data in view.
The fact is, every 7 years we have a completely new set of bones,
teeth, skin and hair. Logically, a person should be able to
look and feel better than they did 7 years ago by changing and
improving the way they take care of their own body as Dr. Carrel
took care of his chicken cell.
Time
alone is not a disease or poison, it is the toxins that accumulate
with time that the body cannot withstand and so deteriorates from.
In other words, time alone is not the cause of death. Poisons are
the cause of death of life forms.
So,
logically and from the above data by detoxifying your cells a
person can freshen up and grow healthier and younger than they once
were by practicing this principle. Periodically detoxifying the
body, drinking lots of fresh water and staying smart on nutrition
can appear to work miracles. Dr. Carrel however proved these
amazing results are not miracles, just good science."
Kathryn Alexander, one of the
leading experts in detoxification and dietary healing states it
succinctly; "The legacy of 50 years exposure to persistent man-made
chemicals combined with the denigration of the food chain has
increased our susceptibility to chronic degenerative disease and
cancer. Reversal can only come about by resolving these primary
causes of disease. By releasing the toxic burden of the body and
restoring its nutritional status, we can change our internal
environment and achieve good health."
The most common symptom of
autointoxication (self-poisoning caused by endogenous
microorganisms, metabolic wastes, or other toxins produced within
the body) is mental dullness and fatigue. Other common symptoms are
headache, constipation, diarrhea, colds, general aches and pains,
particularly up and down the spine and especially in the low back,
skin problems, common infections (due to lowered immuno-competence),
morning sluggishness, gas, bad breath, foul-smelling stool,
allergies, intolerance to fatty foods, premenstrual tension, breast
soreness and tendency to repeated vaginal infections. The good
news… Detoxification can relieve these symptoms!
Using
Calcium Bentonite Clay to Detox
So, how do we go about this detox
business? The answer is simple - CLAY! Not just any clay,
but Calcium Bentonite Clay. A recognized detoxifying agent, it is
in the Smectite group of clays. Only those clays within the
Smectite group have the ability to absorb as well as adsorb.
This means that as the clay passes through your body, it's negative
ionic charge will draw to it anything with a positive charge
(bacteria, viruses, toxins, etc.) and will remove them from your
body. The clay adsorbs (positively charged particles are drawn to,
and stick to it's surface) and also absorbs these particles. The
clay passes through your body, and the toxins are removed as waste.
Ran Knishinsky, author of The
Clay Cure, is an advocate of eating or drinking clay daily. In
his book, he states some of the benefits reported by people using
liquid clay for a period of two to four weeks include: improved
intestinal regularity; relief from chronic constipation, diarrhea,
indigestion, and ulcers; a surge in physical energy; clearer
complexion; brighter, whiter eyes; enhanced alertness; emotional
uplift; improved tissue and gum repair; and increased resistance to
infections. Calcium Bentonite Clay works on the entire organism.
No part of the body is left untouched by its healing energies.
We recommend taking clay daily to
maintain a good, clean digestive system. Normal amounts for adults
to take are as follows: Liquid Clay - 1 to 6 Ounces daily, Hydrated
Clay - 1 to 2 Tablespoons daily. So, choose your method (liquid or
hydrated) and stick with it! When taking clay internally, it is
very important to keep the body hydrated by drinking 8 to 10 glasses
of water daily. The water helps to soften and loosen impacted fecal
material lining the walls of the small intestine and colon. This
material is then absorbed by the clay and removed from the body
through normal elimination.
To do a detox, however, higher
doses are recommended. We suggest doubling the standard,
maintenance doses listed above, by taking the clay in the morning,
in the afternoon, and in the evening, preferably on an empty
stomach. And if you're taking any medication, it is recommended to
wait 1-3 hours before ingesting clay, but please check with your
physician, as medications vary in time release and content. Also,
Clay Baths are highly beneficial for detoxification, especially for
cases of heavy metal poisoning. The directions for Clay Baths are
listed below:
Clay
Bath Directions for Detoxifying
Pour up to 2 cups of powdered clay
in the bathtub and then run very hot water over the clay, as
hot as it gets. Use a whisk or your hand to stir the clay around
and to help it dissolve. When you've got about 3 inches of water in
the tub and the clay is dissolved, start adding cooler water until
the water reaches the desired temperature.
The bath should neither be too hot
nor too cool, but should be nice and warm, as warm as is
comfortable. Bathing time depends upon your condition, but can be
anywhere from 20 to 40 minutes. Please don't overdo it! If
you stay in too long there is a small possibility you could
experience what is known as a cleansing reaction and feel fatigue,
headaches, muscle soreness, etc. Be aware of your body’s response to
the first detox bath.
Another option is to take about a
cup of extra thick liquid Calcium Bentonite Clay and put it into
the bath water. Others have used a full quart and more. It is
highly effective in drawing out toxins. But too much, or too long
exposure, may dry out the skin. If so, when necessary, follow the
bath with a body lotion.
In Energy to Heal, by
Wendell Hoffman, through his own research, Hoffman found that clean,
natural Calcium Bentonite Clay used in a bath could actually draw
out toxic chemicals through the pores of the skin. After many
experiments, he concluded that optimum results are obtained by
immersing oneself in a tub of very warm water mixed with a clean,
natural Calcium Bentonite Clay for exactly 20 minutes! Not just any
clay will do. It is crucial to use "clean clay."
Extreme amounts of clay used in a
bath have been known to help the body detox from severe heavy metal
poisoning. Usually 1 daily bath, 2-4 times in a week is sufficient
to draw out the toxins.
Healing clays have been used for
detoxification purposes for centuries, and, due to several key
factors, are irreplaceable as a part of a cleansing protocol.
“One of the most amazing effects of
clay baths in particular is the ability of the clay to stimulate the
lymphatic system. The more clay that is used in the therapy, the
more powerful the response. I know of people who take clay baths in
pits containing 1.5 tons of heated green Calcium Bentonite Clay.”
Jason Eyton, Eyton’s Earth
Jason went on to say, “Fairly
recently, I had the opportunity to meet with an individual who
likely had one of the worst cases of environmental toxicity in the
U.S. medical history. He eventually found treatment at the John
Hopkins Center for Environmental Medicine, under the care of Dr.
Ziem, where he eventually received a complete cure. He was off the
charts with cadmium, aluminum, silver, mercury, and a few others.
The skin on his entire upper body was slate grey.
Diagnosis was achieved via the
Melisa Test.
Dr. Ziem had to design a complete
protocol from scratch in order to treat him. This included a strong
supplement program, including high doses of Vitamin E and Selenium,
as well as healing Calcium Bentonite Clay used internally. No
standard chelating agents were used.
The most critical part of Ziem’s
treatment protocol was very simple: Steam Sauna Therapy. This man
literally sweated metals you could wipe off with a towel. This of
course would not have been effective without the supplementation.
There is a lot of strong evidence
suggesting that clay therapy may be an ideal, if not the ideal,
treatment for heavy metal toxicity.
Clay works WITH the human organism,
and therefore is dependant on the body’s own resources for its
action. In severe cases, obviously many of the body’s normal
functions begin to shut down.
Therefore, I believe we need to
consider a few simple principles: Stimulation and Cleansing.
I recently had a meeting with a
brilliant genetic scientist. New research indicates that the immune
system makes intelligent choices based on a very wide array of
variables. A single effective choice made by the immune system can
become an instant habit that is passed, on a cellular level, to the
entire immune system. When the body is subjected to substances that
induce a toxic response, the immune system literally makes a
decision on how this substance is to be dealt with. If the primary
objective is achieved, i.e., protection of main circulatory system
and organs, then this response will likely be used thereafter. This
is not ideal, as the body can choose to try to store these
substances if immediate systemic elimination was not possible
without deemed risk to the organism.”
In conclusion, remember that
Calcium Bentonite Clay cannot be used wrong. For a full body detox
– get it in you, on you, and all around you in every fashion
possible.
