Marine Plants and Fresh Water Algae to Enhance Health,
Boost Immunity, Detoxify
A number of research have shown the effectiveness of seaweeds on human
and animal health. Seaweeds have curative powers for tuberculosis, arthritis,
colds and influenza, worm infestations. Some sea plants produces an effective
vermifugal agent (kainic acid). Carrageenans have been patented as anti-viral
agents. The electrolytic magnetic action of the sea plants releases excess
body fluids from congested cells and dissolves fatty wastes through the
skin, replacing them with depleted minerals, particularly potassium and
iodine. As the natural iodine boosts thyroid activity, food fuels are used
before they can turn into fatty deposits. Vitamin K, a fat-soluble vitamin
in seaweeds, aids adrenal regulation, so a seaweed bath also helps maintain
hormone balance for a more youthful body. Sea Vegetables (Spirulina
- kelp - Chlorella) have been acknowledged as a detoxifyer, a balanced
nourishment and a miraculous healing plant. Ocean/Sea algae are the richest
natural source of minerals, trace minerals and rare earth elements.

Steven Schecter, N.D - "There is no family of foods
more protective against radiation and environmental pollutants than sea
vegetables ... sea vegetables can prevent assimilation of different radionuclitides,
heavy metals such as cadmium, and other environmental toxins."
Linda Page, N.D. Ph.D. - "Sea plants
can transform your health. A seaweed bath is a great way to get the benefits
of sea plants all over your body. Seaweed baths are Nature's perfect body-psyche
balancer, and they're a good way get natural iodine. There are many reasons
why I recommend sea vegetables as part of my healing programs -- weight
loss, cellulite control, detoxification, beautiful hair and skin, and more.
Sea vegetables can transform your health! I believe that when we eat sea
vegetables, and when we take seaweed baths, we are tapping into the ancestral
and restorative source of all life- the ocean. Include sea vegetables into
your diet every day and you 'll see a difference. I do! Sea plants -- gifts
from the sea!"
Seawater contains
every mineral and trace mineral known in organic form and in the proper
ratios needed by human tissues. Dr. René Quinton, French biologist/physiologist,
proved that pure seawater is virtually identical to mammalian blood plasma.
With the assistance of many eminent physicians, he successfully used seawater
as a healing agent on thousands of patients in France and Egypt in the
early 1900s. Navy doctors successfully used seawater during the Second
World War when blood serum supplies ran out. Marine

Profound Life-Giving Properties
of Marine Phytoplankton
Dr. Jerry Tennant, MD, from the Tennant Institute of Integrative
Medicine, explains that the micronutrients and electrolytes in marine
phytoplankton (microscopic plants/organism that live in the ocean)
are exactly what human cell membranes need to carry out their metabolism.
Not surprisingly, the composition of human plasma, or fluid surrounding
cell membranes, is similar to that of sea water. Relying solely on land-based
food sources may lead to deficiencies in these micronutrients and electrolytes.
While transient sub-optimal nutrition may be forgiven, a constant diet
lacking in these micronutrients will adversely affect every function, structure,
and detoxification functions of the human cell. Good nutrition will enhance
the structure and function of all organs in our bodies. Our brains, muscles,
hearts, arteries, joints, bones, skin, hair, hormones, immune system, vision,
digestion, kidneys, liver will carry out their jobs much better. Metabolically,
our lipids, and sugars can be optimized, thus providing more overall energy,
minimize weight problems, and improve sleep. These nutrients improve mental
function, and memory. They reduce depression, harmful effects of stress,
and mood swings.
Hugo
Rodier M.D. - "There are very few products that provide all, or even
most, of the raw materials to make new cells and sustain the existing ones.
The problem is that we need ALL of them at the same time for things to
work. One of those rare products that contains almost everything you need
for life (and the rebuilding of a healthy life) is
marine phytoplankton.
It contains the nine amino acids that the body cannot make...The essential
fatty acids are also present (Omega 3 and Omega 6). Vitamins A, B1, B2,
B3, B5, B6, B12, C, D and major and trace minerals are all present in phtyoplankton.
Marine
phytoplankton can reduce depression, harmful effects of stress, and

Plankton is rich in polymeric, and basic
healthy
sugars, such as polysaccharides (J. Plankton Research 2005;27:695.)
Plankton
also have an alkaline pH, which is important,
given the acidity of our diets high in refined sugars, soda pop, and farmed
large animals. Marine Phytoplankton contain many elements available no
where else. You may have heard of fresh water phytoplankton like Spirulina
and Chlorella. These algae also have
many health benefits, however, with the 200+ separate species of marine
phytoplankton, their nutritional profile is second to none!
Dr. Jerry Tennant, M.D. - "One of those rare products that
contains almost everything you need for life (and the rebuilding of a healthy
life) is marine phytoplankton. It contains
the nine amino acids that the body cannot make and must be consumed in
our diet (essential amino acids). The essential fatty acids are also present
(Omega 3 and Omega 6). Vitamins A (betacarotine), 81 (thiamine),
82 (riboflavin), 83 (niacin), 85 (pantothenic acid), 86 (pyridoxine), 812
(cobalamin), C, and D (tocopherol) and major and trace minerals are all
present in phytoplankton. In short, it contains almost everything one needs
to sustain life. Therefore, it contains almost everything one needs
to restore health by providing the raw materials to make new cells that
function normally. This is particularly true if one stops putting toxic
materials such as artificial sweeteners and
trans
fats (partially hydrogenated fats) into our body."
Dr. Robert Rowe Ph.D
- "My 81 year old mother had been telling me how much energy she had been
having since taking the phytoplankton. However
she had misunderstood the amount she should be taking – she was consuming
mere drops, rather than the proper ounces. Having been a student of homeopathy,
it suddenly dawned on me there must be a major energy component activated,
even though her dosage was so small. The work of Fritz Popp came to mind:
Dr. Popp, a world renowned physicist, found that living things emit small
packets of light called photons. We can see the phosphorescence produced
in the ocean when the water is stirred at night; we are able to see the
sparkling photon light produced. Dr. Popp was able to show that the effects
of a compound could be duplicated just by bombarding water with the electromagnetic
frequency of the compound, which is how homeopathy works.

Sea vegetables can prevent assimilation of different radionuclitides,
heavy metals such as cadmium, and other environmental toxins." An
experiment conducted by J.F. Stara at the Environmental Protection Agency
showed that sodium alginate significantly reduced the amount of radio active
strontium in the bones of cats. Stara observed that radio active strontium
in the bones is resecreted into the intestines where it is bound by alginate,
neutralized then excreted in the stools." learn

Algae are ubiquitous; a multitude of species ranging from microscopic
unicells to gigantic kelps inhabit the world's oceans, freshwater bodies,
soils, rocks, and trees, and are responsible for most of the global production
of organic matter by photosynthesis. They thus play a fundamental role
in the world's ecosystems and a reliable and modern introduction to their
kaleidoscopic diversity, systematics, and phylogeny is indispensable. In
this textbook, the main groups of algae (divisions or phyla) are considered
in turn. Each chapter begins with a summary of the principal characteristics
of the group and interesting aspects of ecology and evolution. The final
chapter is a synthesis, in which the phylogeny of the algae is discussed
in relation to the evolution of other living organisms, primarily on the
basis of evidence from recent molecular studies. This book is the completely
revised and updated edition of a highly acclaimed German work, which was
heralded for its clarity as well as its breadth and depth of information.
This new edition takes into account recent reevaluations in algal systematics
and phylogeny provided by the powerful techniques of molecular genetics
and electron microscopy, as well as more traditional life history studies.
The book will be appropriate as an undergraduate text and as a reference
for professionals in the field.
The high density of nutrients found in algae
is extremely important for many reasons. Perhaps the most important (as
noted above) is that these nutrients maintain human cell membranes in structure
and function. This is vital for cell
detoxification, and for the overall metabolism of human cells.
In fact, the causes of diseases have been simplified to very specific mechanisms,
all of which center on cell membrane function and structure. Inflammation,
Oxidation, Toxicity, and Mitochondrial
dysfunction keep cell membranes from doing their job effectively. Algae
contain high levels of antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory micronutrients
to fuel metabolism and detoxification.
Seaweeds are really not a weed but large marine algae that grow in the
coastal waters of many countries. They include thousands of species from
microscopic plants called phytoplankton to huge floating/anchored plants
commonly seen washed up on shore. Many kinds of seaweed are eaten by people
because they are full of vitamins and iodine. Asian cultures use seaweed
like green beans and carrots are used in the United States. One of seaweed's
most prominent health benefits is its ability to remove radioactive strontium
and other heavy metals from our bodies. Brown seaweeds such as kelp contain
alginic acid which binds with the toxins in the intestines rendering them
indigestible and carries them out of the system.
Sea vegetables are virtually fat-free, low calorie and one of the richest
sources of minerals in the vegetable kingdom as they have ready access
to the abundance of minerals found in the ocean. Nourishment is acquired
across the sea vegeable's entire surface through the gentle wave action
of underwater currents. Sea water and human blood contain many of the same
minerals in very similar concentrations.
Sea vegetables contain high amounts of calcium and phosphorous and are
extremely high in magnesium, iron, iodine and sodium. For example, 1/4
cup of cooked hijiki contains over half the calcium found in a cup of milk
and more iron than in an egg, important concerns for vegans, those who
refrain from eating any animal-based products. They also contain vitamins
A, B1, C and E, as well as protein and carbohydrates.
I
use raw nori
sheet seaweed instead of bread. I love the taste of Nori. It is made
in Asia from nourishing seaweed, rich in trace minerals, vitamins and other
important nutrients. It is non-fattening, rich in fiber. I use it to make
"taco" or "burito" stuffed with lettuce, avocado, tomatoes, smoked salmon
or raw cheese. Shirley
The beauty of using the seaweed is that it can only do good, and
never harm. It does not deplete the energy of the body as some reducing
programs do; indeed, it strengthens the vital energy by working in cooperating
with the endocrine glands. It has been found that there is a definite connection
between the amount of energy available and our iodine intake. In Kelp,
as we mentioned before, we have a perfectly natural source of all the iodine
we require.
Obesity
is rare among the Polynesians and other races who incorporate seaweeds
as a regular part of their daily diet. This plant influences the mucous
membranes and lymphatics. It is a slow, persistent agent, but it will accomplish
the desired weight loss results. It is stimulating to the absorbents and
especially influences the fatty globules. Its best action is observed in
individuals having a cold, torpid, clammy skin and loose flabby rolls of
fat. It is an agent that gives better results in sick, overweight people
than in cases of healthy, fat people (Luc:50). Instead of being simply
a weight loss agent, it is more a normalizer, as thin people can put on
weight while taking Kelp. More about kelp and its health

Spirulina, Chlorella,
and wild blue-green ( Aphanizomenon flos-aquae)
contain more chlorophyll than any other foods. Dried micro algae,
are the richest source of proteins, beta-carotene, and nucleic acids (RNA
and DNA), and very rich source of GLA. Micro algae have been successfully
used to improve immunity of people with Cancer, AIDS, Colitus, Diabetes
...
Spirulina,
a blue-green alga sold as a supplement, is an excellent source of chlorophyll
and disease-fighting compounds called phytochemicals. Phytochemicals (phyto
is Greek for "plant") are compounds in plants and fruits that imbue them
with color and protect them against cellular damage caused by free radicals.
Researchers at the National Institutes of Health are studying phytochemicals
to understand their role in disease prevention. Marine
phytoplankton can reduce depression, harmful effects of stress, and
mood swings. Specifically,
Spirulina
(cyanophyta,) has 62% amino acids, or 20 times more protein than Soy and
200 times more than beef. It is also the richest source of vitamin B12,
and it contains high levels of minerals, like Zinc. Spirulina has 10 times
more carotenoids than carrots, and it is rich in xanthophyl pigments, like
chlorophyll.
It is also rich in oils, containing more omega 3s than fish oil, such as
GLA. More

cancer is one disorder that may be treated or prevented by phytochemicals,
especially beta-carotene, which is found in abundance in spirulina. This
may explain why the alga slowed and even stopped the growth of cancerous
cells in scientific studies. Padmanabhan P. Nair, Ph.D., ascientist with
the U.S. Department of Agriculture, recently demonstrated that spirulina
is a particularly potent inhibitor of mouth cancer. Nair and his colleagues
gave daily spirulina
supplements to volunteers in southwestern India for 12 months. The
volunteers were alike in many ways: All chewed tobacco and had precancerous
lesions in their mouths called leukoplakia. After taking the alga for one
year, 45 percent of the volunteers had recovered, and the thick, white,
precancerous patches in their mouths completely disappeared. Another 12
percent of the volunteers showed significant improvement, raising the figure
to 57 percent who benefited from spirulina supplements(Nutrition
and Cancer, 1995, vol. 24).

Chlorella was first identified by a Dutch scientist in 1890. But it
was not until the 1950's that Japanese studies threw light on its enormous
potential. Researchers discovered that some of chlorella's beneficial health
effects appeared to stem from a high concentration of chlorophyll and beta
carotene, as well as from its unusual cell wall. Cell wall of this alga
binds with heavy metals, pesticides, PCB, ... and carries these toxins
safely out of the body.
Chlorella is an important part of the systemic mercury elimination program,
as approximately 90% of the mercury is eliminated through the stool. Using
large doses of chlorella facilitates fecal mercury excretion. After the
intestinal mercury burden is lowered, mercury will more readily migrate
into the intestine from other body tissues from where chlorella will effectively
remove it.
Chlorella
has been demonstrated to remove heavy metals and other synthetics from
the body by actually binding with them so they may be pulled from the bloodstream.
However, this result can only be measured if the level of heavy metals
in the bloodstream are known before and after a person starts taking chlorella.
It takes approximately 3-6 months once starting chloreela for heavy metals
to begin to be removed from the blood depending on the amount of chlorella
taken. If it has been determined that a person does have heavy metals in
their body, they should begin by taking 15-20 grams per day depending on
the level of heavy metals that are present.
It contains Chlorella Growth Factor ( CGF ). CGF strengthens immunity
by improving the activity of T- and B- cells, which defense against viruses.
CGF strengthens immunity by improving the activity of macrophages , which
destroys cancer. The Chlorella Growth Factor (CGF) was isolated in the
1950s and indicates the level of chlorella's nucleic acids, says Paul Pitchford.
Nucleic acids -- RNA and DNA -- in the body direct our cellular growth
and repair, yet they decline as we age, and they're depleted by stress,
pollution and poor diet.
Sometimes called the green blood tonic and cleanser, it's reported to
be beneficial in cases of anemia, and studies have shown its ability to
stimulate regeneration of tissue, accelerate the healing of wounds and
inhibit the growth of some tumors. Some scientists think chlorella may
help to prevent degenerative disease and even slow down the aging process,
while American researcher Dr. David Steenblock believes it has great potential
in the treatment of cancer, AIDS, Epsteir Barr disease and other equally
chronic viral illnesses.
Chlorella is not tolerated by about one-third of people due to
gastrointestinal distress. Chitosan
can be effectively used as an alternative in these individuals. Chitosan
makes up most of the hull of insects shellfish and also bind metals like
mercury from the lumen of the intestines.
Detoxification
- How Chlorella Works It no longer takes 40+ years to accumulate enough acid waste in your
tissues, to cause degenerative diseases such as cancer, diabetes, heart
disease, and high blood pressure. These degenerative diseases are striking
Americans at increasingly younger ages because of our polluted environment
and our ferocious appetite for acid forming foods.
There have been numerous studies on Chlorella's detoxifying effect on
cadmium, heavy metals, PCBs, and chlordecone (a harmful insecticide). In
addition there have been recent findings of chlorella's potential radioprotective
effect against Gamma-rays.
In 1984, Drug and Chemical Toxicology published a study by Dr. Pore
of the West Virginia University, School of Medicine, in which chlorella
administered to rats increased the rate of detoxification of chlordecone
(a harmful insecticide). It was shown that chlorella caused the toxin to
be removed from the body more than twice as fast as the control group.
Dr. Pore found two active absorbing mechanisms in chlorella; sporopollenin
(a carotene-like polymer) and the cell wall itself.
In 1975, Japanese researchers, Hagino et al., found that chlorella increased
excretion of cadmium in individuals suffering from cadmium poisoning. Dr.Steenblock
sites other examples of Chlorella's ability to detoxify in his book Chlorella
Natural Medicinal Algae: In one study "brewer's yeast culture was poisoned
and killed by the addition of P.C.B., mercury, copper and cadmium. When
Chlorella extract was added to these toxic substances, the brewer's yeast
remained alive!" "Other studies have shown that chlorella cell walls absorb
and hang onto uranium and lead." "Chlorella has been used to detoxify people
suffering from P.C.B. exposure. Doctor Ueda of the Kitakyushu City Institute
for Environmental Pollution Research in Japan gave 30 patients who suffered
from P.C.B. exposure, daily doses of 4-6 grams of Chlorella for a one year
period. As a result almost all improved (less tired, better digestion,
normal bowel movements)"
Chlorella to Remove Mercury and Pesticides
Dr. Mercola - "Chlorella is an incredibly powerful nutrient from
the sea and is a form of algae. I use it quite a bit for mercury detoxification
as it binds very strongly to mercury to eliminate it from the body. Chlorella
also is a useful source of chlorophyll, and it adds magnesium and protein
to the juice. Binds to other heavy metals and pesticides in the juice.
The normal dose is one teaspoon in the juice. However, about 30% of people
cannot tolerate the chlorella, so if it makes you nauseous you should definitely
avoid it. Spirulina is another algae that has many similar benefits and
is a good balance to chlorella. However it does not bind to heavy metals
like chlorella." Algae

Commonly known as Rockweed, Ascophyllum nodosum seaweed is widely recognised
to be the richest marine plant for animal feed and for agricultural use.
This unique seaweed grows exclusively on the North Atlantic coast of North
America and Europe. It is found in particular abundance on the North Atlantic
coast of Canada, where its cold and clean growing environment is continuously
replenished by the world's highest tides.
Although this may be news to us, ancient maritime cultures such as the
Japanese, the Chinese, the South-Sea Islanders and the Greenland Eskimos
have known of the ocean's secrets for hundreds of years. Kelp, or common
seaweed, has long been a favourite vegetable source amongst these nations.
This seaweed works like a sponge, absorbing from the water almost all
the nutrients, minerals and trace elements that are essential to life.
Kelp was first used medicinally to treat enlarged thyroid glands. Physicians
didn't know why kelp was effective, until it was discovered that it was
exceptionally rich in iodine and that enlarged thyroids were due to an
iodine deficiency. Because iodine worked by stimulating the thyroid gland
that controls the metabolism, it was noted that those who took iodine lost
weight more easily. From these observations, kelp was then used to assist
in weight loss. It has been suggested that kelp's positive effects in assisting
metabolism may help in lowering cholesterol. This versatile seaweed is
also widely used to maintain healthy skin and hair. Kelp's most dramatic
application is its ability to neutralise heavy metal pollution and radiation
in the body. Studies have shown that the active ingredient in kelp, sodium
alginate, can prevent the absorption of newly ingested heavy metals, but
it has little effect on past exposures. Health authorities in America have
discouraged people from collecting kelp along the shoreline because it
could be contaminated by industrial pollution. It was suggested that deep
ocean kelp be obtained commercially, either as a food or in supplement
form.
Kelp contains over 60 minerals and elements, 21 amino acids, simple
and complex carbohydrates and several essential plant growth hormones.
Being rich in amino acids, vitamins, minerals and trace elements is one
of the key reasons why kelp is known as a great promoter of glandular health,
especially for the pituitary, adrenal and thyroid glands. Kelp also supplies
a natural source of iodine, which acts as an antibiotic to kill germs.
Since the thyroid and pituitary glands regulate certain functions of digestion,
kelp is beneficial in balancing out humans and animal's total system. Nature
has offered us this marvelous "herb of the sea" in a complete and balanced
form.

Aphanizomenon Flos-Aquae
(AFA) blue-green algae
The "Invisible Flower of the Water" for People and Animals' Health
AFA algae
targets hidden nutritional deficiencies and detoxifies your body
Aphanizomenon flos-aquae is a fresh water, edible species of blue-green
algae, the most nutritious food on the planet. Algae are non-flowering
water plants that grow in almost every drop of sunlit water and every gram
of soil, on the barks of trees and the surfaces of rocks. It is estimated
that there are as many as 50,000 species; these include seaweeds and plankton.
Collectively, algae is responsible for 90% of the Earth's oxygen and 80%
of its food supply.
Chlorophyll, which is contained in algae, is very
important. Algae are the highest known source of chlorophyll that is vital
for rapid assimilation of amino acids. Eating high chlorophyll foods helps
production of vitamin E in the body.
Karl
J. Abrams, Professor of Chemistry - "AFA has more bio-available
chlorophyll than any other food. In biochemical research circles, the presence
of chlorophyll in such high quantities is a clear indication of the AFA's
extraordinarily high life-force. This inheerent vitality helps keep the
AFA's wide spectrum of nutrients at their absolute nutritional peak. For
me, this partially explains the mystery of how AFA can have so many positive
health benefits." Professor Abrahams is the
author of Algae to the Rescue and also Attention Deficit Hyperactivity
Disorder - A Nutritional Approach
Dr. Gabriel Cousens M.D.
- "As a physician working with thousands of clients, I find that AFA helps
to restore overall biochemical balance by nourishing the body at the cellular
level. The positive response from the use of AFA has been extraordinary.
A wonderful and unique blend for peak performance of body, mind, and spirit
that should be included in any detoxification and rejuvenation program.

The
Coral Calcium story began when a journalist with the Guinness Book of Records
was dispatched to interview a man named Shigechiyo Izumi who lived on a
small island off the coast of Okinawa, Japan. Guinness was looking to verify
and document that Mr. Izumi was the world's oldest living human at ate
115. During the interview, the journalist noticed that most of the islanders
enjoyed the same good health as Mr. Izumi and that these islanders seldom
died before age 95. Mr. Izumi submitted to a full medical checkup and at
115, doctors were amazed to find that he was still a very healthy man.
This prompted a team of researchers to try to determine what was keeping
these people in such incredible health. They found the water the islanders
drank was different from water found anywhere else in the world. These
islands were built up from coral reefs and when rain falls, it percolates
coral deposits and picks up minerals and other elements that make it truly
unique. This water contained many essential minerals that are chemically
similar to the elements found in the human skeleton, body fluids and blood.
It was also very alkaline, with pH of 8.6. Scientists concluded that maintaining
the alkaline pH appears to be essential for life, health and vitality.
Among the oldest and most primitive of organisms is coral. Coral reefs
surround islands everywhere in the world, but the coral reefs surrounding
Okinawa have proved to be like no other. Coral Calcium has a natural pH
range of 10-11 and has an alkalizing effect on the body, which
can be of great support to those who need to offset acidity levels*.
Out of over 2,500 varieties of coral in the world, only the Sango Coral
contains an organic composition identical to that of the human skeleton,
including calcium, magnesium, sodium and potassium and many other microscopic
elements essential to human life. It is widely used for bone grafts
throughout the world. Because coral calcium is ionic and readily bioavailable,
it does not become a
free radical in the process and donates electrons to repair the damaged
cells. A major health benefit!

* Disease proliferate only where there is not enough oxygen for cells
to be healthy. Raw foods contain an abundance of oxygen. In cooked foods,
oxygen is destroyed. The cells of the body in health are alkaline. In disease
the cell pH is below 7.0. The more acid the cells become, the sicker we
are and feel. We can remain in health by consuming a diet that is 70-80%
alkaline and 20-30% acid. Most raw-foods dietsare

Ocean
therapy encompasses the understanding that the element of water provides
a restorative balancing of emotions through tuning-in to the cyclical rhythms
of the ocean. From swimming with dolphins to incorporating ocean healing
into traditional Ayurvedic medicine, Ocean Therapy is becoming more popular
as a tool for healing deep emotional scars. Ocean Therapy also includes
the bathing hydrotherapies that have applications to skin nutrition. Traditionally
these therapies are referred to as Thalasso Therapy.
Thalassotherapy is an ageless, health-restorative technique. Thalassa
is the ancient Greek word for sea. The Greeks indeed used the sea for their
well-being. I myself have seen 2500 year-old healing sites on the Greek
islands of Rhodes and Corfu, and the ancient Greek healing center at Pergamum
in what is now Turkey.
Thalassotherapy comes from the Greek word thalassos, or sea, and is
a treatment system using fresh heated seawater which induces an
exchange of minerals and toxins between the blood and the water. It is
extremely popular in Europe, especially France. As with thermal spas, thalassotherapy
centres benefit those with certain medical conditions such as arthritis,
and also those without.
Even judging by the therapeutic centers still known to us, much of the
population of the ancient Greek and Roman world soaked in sea water hot
tubs and heated seaweed baths, drank and inhaled sea water for health,
got sea water massages, had sea green facials and body wraps, and used
sea water pools for hydrotherapy and detoxification. Today we are learning,
once again, about the ability of the sea to reduce tension and de-stress
our bodies, detoxify the skin and improve circulation, speed weight loss
and cellulite control, and even ease menopausal discomforts.
Typically, a stay at a thalassotherapy centre would include daily bathing
in a heated seawater pool with jets, and other facilities such as as massages,
aromatherapy or algae wraps. A therapeutic bath is an excellent medium
for whole body rejuvenation. The skin, being the largest organ and riddled
with capillaries, ducts, and nerve endings, constitutes a major eliminative
and absorptive system. Engaging this system plus the olfactory and dermal
neural senses with the healing modalities of Aromatherapy, Herbology, and
Mineral Thallasotherapy (sea water therapy) in one medium, can bring about
profound changes in both mind and body. A hot seaweed bath is one of the
most effective treatments in natural healing. When we take seaweed baths,
we are tapping into the ancestral and restorative source of all life-
the ocean. In her website, Dr. Page offers ideas and information How

Healing
Clay - Healing Earth Clay is renowned to have many uses in promoting
health in plants, animals and humans. Bentonite, Pascalite, as well as
other types of healing clays, have been used by indigenous cultures since
before recorded history. 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, he notes.
"The eating of clay has been observed in [ native ] peoples and animals
in all parts of the world since antiquity. Early writers described the
widespread use of kanwa ( earth from a lick near Lake Chad ) for animals
and humans in Nigeria. Long journeys were made to [ this ] lick to obtain
a tribal supply of this earth, and it was then issued as rations to cattle
and humans...

Other Earth Cure: Fulvic
Acids and Shilajit Fulvic Acid and Shilajit are involved in
complex biochemical reactions in living plants and animals, which directly
influence the very metabolic processes at the cellular level. Fulvic acid
is a humic substance or extract. Humic substances are found in rich humus
soil in trace amounts and are
considered nature's own best medicine
for plants, animals, humans,
and the Earth itself. To the science
of living cells, fulvic acids are vital in bringing substantial amounts
of nutrients and minerals into water solution and delivering their living
energies to the living cells. Fulvic acid assists every stage of cellular
metabolism and is the most powerful, natural electrolyte known. It restores
electrical balance to damaged cells, neutralizes toxins and can eliminate
food poisoning within minutes. Shilajit in Sanskrit means "conqueror
of mountains and destroyer of weakness". It comes from the rocks in the
lower Himalayas and is the most important natural remedy of Ayurvedic medicine.
The
active principle of shilajit is fulvic acid.
Traditionally considered
a panacea and a strong kidney tonic, it increases the core energy responsible
for your sexual and spiritual power, the same force that is withered by
stress and anxiety. “There is hardly any curable disease which cannot be
controlled or cured with the aid of Shilajit.” - Famous Indian Vaid Charak
(1st Century A.D. It is used by the indigenous system of medicine in India,
Hakims and Vaids and traditional healers, in a great variety of diseases:
genitourinary diseases, diabetes, chronic bronchitis, asthma, gall stones,
jaundice, painful and bleeding piles, epilepsy, enlarged liver and spleen,
fermentative dyspepsia, digestive disorders, worms, renal and bladder calculi,
nervous debility, sexual neurasthenia, hysteria, anaemia and in bone fracture.
The
use of blessed thistle commonly known as holy thistle (Carbenia benedicta)
has been recorded as far back as the early sixteenth century for treating
smallpox, fever, anorexia, dyspepsia, indigestion, constipation, and flatulence.
Monks often grew Blessed Thistle as a cure for small pox. Historically,
blessed thistle tea has been drunk for digestive problems, liver and gall
bladder problems, headache prevention, respiratory ailments, memory improvement
and external problems such as sores, boils and itchy skin. The plant gained
the title "blessed" for its use in treating plague. Blessed thistle is
also used as a strong but gentle liver tonic herb, promoting metabolic
activities in the liver cells and toxin elimination. Especially noted as
a tonic herb for women. Some individuals employ this herbs, as they would
its cousin milk thistle, as a remedy for gallbladder and liver disorders.

"Bee
Pollen is often referred to as nature's most complete
food, containing all of the 22 elements that the human body requires to
function, provides you with 135 essential nutrients, a vast array of vitamins,
minerals, amino acids and more. Human consumption of bee pollen is praised
in the Bible, other religious books, and ancient Chinese and Egyptian texts.
It has long been prescribed by traditional health practitioners-including
the fathers of Western medicine Hippocrates, Pliny the Elder, and Pythagoras-for
its healing properties. Bee pollen rejuvenates the body, stimulates organs
and glands, enhances vitality, and brings about a longer life span. Bee

Glyconutrients
/ Glyconutritionals / Saccharides - It's Role in People and Animals' Health
and Wellness Glyconutrients are not vitamins, minerals, herbals, homeopathics or
enzymes. They are a class all to themselves. They are supplements derived
from nature that have been formulated based on a new understanding in biochemistry
of how our bodies maintain health at the cellular level. This new discovery
is as significant as the discovery of the role of vitamins, essential fatty
acids, and amino acids in how the body functions. Glyconutritionals
are the foods and nutritional supplements that provide saccharides along
with other glycoforms (lipids and proteins) essential to the body, but
which are scarce in most diets. Over 20,000 studies have been conducted
on individual glyconutrients, and virtually all of them have positive outcomes
and show great promise as healers of the future. Based on the knowledge
that the body can heal itself through cell to cell communication if given
the proper nutrients, glyconutrients are seen by many scientists and doctors
as the missing link to optimal health.

Nature
provides us with a simple, straightforward system for regaining and maintaining
superb human health and beauty.
Healing with Food: Most human illnesses and diseases
are due to a deficiency of vital nutrients. When you supply your body with
the proper nutrients, in a form that your body can use, it knows how to
repair itself.
Healing through Fasting: Fasting is the world's
most ancient and natural healing mechanism.
Healing with Water: Hydrotherapy has been used
for centuries to heal the sick.
Healing with Sunlight: Sunlight helps the body
heal wounds and injuries and overcome virtually any illness.
Healing with Earth: Clay is renowned to have many
uses in promoting health in plants, animals and humans.
Healing with Plants: Plants have the power to supply
the bodies’ life force with the energies it needs to restore and maintain
health.
Healing with Urine: One of the most powerful, most
researched and most medically proven natural cures ever discovered.
Healing from the Hives: Bee pollen rejuvenates your
body, stimulates organs and glands, enhances vitality, and brings about
a longer life span.
Basic Healing Principles: The body has an innate
capacity to heal itself. Self-healing can only occur once the cause
of
the illness has been eliminated. Why elimination of the symptom is NOT
the same as elimination of the disease? Physicians and surgeons

What
Every Parent Should Know BEFORE Their Childen Are Vaccinated! Why
are a growing number of parents and health care professionals around the
world questioning vaccination? The controversy stems from the thousands
of deaths and permanent disabilities attributed to vaccination annually,
as well as the many published medical studies, government statistics, congressional
testimonies, and other credible sources that directly contradict commonly
held assumptions about vaccine safety and effectiveness.
Bart Classen, a Maryland physician, published data showing that diabetes
rates rose significantly in New Zealand following a massive hepatitis B
vaccine campaign in young children, and that diabetes rates also went up
sharply in Finland after three new childhood vaccines were introduced.

In fall 1997, two influential professional magazines featured articles
asking the question: Has the decrease of infectious diseases in childhood
through the mass use of vaccines been replaced with an increase in chronic
diseases such as diabetes and asthma? The Economist, a prestigious international
magazine read by world leaders in government, business and public policy,
and Science News, a magazine read by both health care professionals
and the general public, explored the reported links between vaccines and
chronic diseases in their November 22, 1997 issues.
