Heavy metal and toxin detox


                  Blood purification using activated charcoal---I eat it
The blood is where life lays---it holds our life. It transports nutrients to the cells and carries away waste. It transports hormones from the endocrine glands to other parts of the body. It helps regulate the amounts of acids, bases, salts, and water in the cells. It helps regulate body temperature. It balances our body but when the blood flow in the body is bugged with impurities like carbon monoxide, mercury, lead, arsenic, cadmium, toxic gas, metal, and chemicals, fats containing toxic substances and even toxic natural substances that invade the body into the blood—it can be detrimental to our health and may even cause fatal diseases.
Blood purification is necessary to remove or draw out impurities—toxins from the blood and body, as well as provide important nutrients to help restore the blood’s normal structure and maximize its performance.
There are modern medical proof that the old natural remedy, Charcoal, is truly a very safe and highly efficient Natural Healing Agent. Activated Charcoal has been used effectively in Ayurvedic healing for cleansing. Doctors still use it today as a healing and detox agent, an antidote for poisons, and an effective treatment for indigestion and gas. Charcoal is effective for detoxification and blood purification because it attracts other substances to its surface through the process of adsorption. Charcoal can absorb 1000 times more of its own weight in gases, heavy metals, poisons, and other chemicals, and inactivates harmful chemicals.
The form of Charcoal used in modern medical science is Activated Charcoal U.S.P., a pure naturally produced, wood charcoal carbon that has no carcinogenic properties. Activated Charcoal is an odorless, tasteless powder. One teaspoonful of it has a surface area of more than 10,000 square feet which allows it to adsorb large amounts of chemicals or poisons. The powder must be stored in a tightly sealed container, as it readily adsorbs impurities from the atmosphere. Charcoal from burnt toast is not effective, and Charcoal briquettes must not be used-- it can be dangerous because they contain fillers and petrochemicals to help them ignite.
Studies show that Activated Charcoal is harmless when ingested or inhaled, or when it comes in contact with the skin. In rare cases, charcoal may mildly irritate the bowel in sensitive persons, but no allergies or side effects have been recorded. Ingested Charcoal may linger in the colon, but this is not harmful.
Many pediatricians and pediatric handbooks recommend that Activated Charcoal be kept on hand as a natural remedy for poison in the family medicine cabinet, especially in households that include small children especially knowing that children are much more prone to putting rubbish in their mouth and swallowing it.
                                   


Here is the reason why I said I eat diamonds to detox heavy metals from my body (I call these my favorite black diamond) ---“Activated charcoal”.
                                         
                                            Facts on charcoal

  • Charcoal speeds up wound healing time and eliminate their odors.
  • Powdered charcoal can be given in fruit juice, gelatin, jam, or honey to make it easier to swallow.
  • Activated charcoal is inexpensive, simple to use and is a time-tested natural remedy that has many valuable uses without dangerous side effects or contradictions, a very efficient cleanse of the body when taken orally. It also helps to purify the blood.
  • Activated Charcoal eliminates toxic by-products that cause anemia in cancer patients.
  • It can be used to disinfect and deodorize wounds.
  • Activated charcoal can filter toxins from the blood in liver and kidney diseases.
  • Activated charcoal cuts down on the amount of gas produced by beans and other gas-producing foods. It adsorbs the excess gas as well as the bacteria that form the gas.
  • Activated charcoal helps to eliminate bad breath, because it cleanses both the mouth and the digestive tract.
  • It is also helpful in relieving symptoms of nervous diarrhea, traveler's diarrhea (Turista), spastic colon, indigestion, and peptic ulcers. For such problems take between 1 teaspoon and 1 tablespoon of powdered charcoal up to 3 times a day. Take it between meals, as food can reduce its effectiveness. Swirl the charcoal in a glass of water and drink it down or mix it with olive oil for easy ingestion by use of a spoon.
  • Activated charcoal can be used to purify blood in transfusions.
  • Activated charcoal cuts down on odors in ileostomy and colostomy patients.
  • Activated charcoal treats poisoning and overdoses of aspirin, Tylenol and other drugs.
  • It can be used to treat some forms of dysentery, diarrhea, dyspepsia, and "foot and mouth" disease.
  • Poisonous snake, scorpions, spider and insect bites can all be treated with Activated Charcoal (I have seen my mum use activated charcoal with disinfecting warm sea salt and Aloe Vera water on a girl who was bitten by scorpion as a first aid treatment--it works well on venomous bites). Doctors also use Activated Charcoal to prevent and treat intestinal infections, and as a cleansing and healing agents. Jaundice of the newborn, bee stings, poison ivy reactions, and many other illnesses can be helped with Activated Charcoal.
  • You can filter your water after boiling it by pouring the water into pure clay pot half filled with activated charcoal--like in the olden days and the water should be good for a month, kept air tight.
  • Modern Industry also relies on Charcoal to deodorize, decolorize and purity solutions. Example; for purification of electroplating solutions, it is a main purification technique for removing organic impurities from bright nickel plating solutions.
  • Environmentally, activated carbon is used in gas purification, gold purification, metal extraction, water purification, medicine, sewage treatment, air filters in gas masks and respirators, filters in compressed air, removing pollutants from air or water streams both in the field and in industrial processes such as: Spill cleanup, Groundwater remediation, Drinking water filtration, Air purification, Volatile organic compounds capture from painting, dry cleaning, gasoline dispensing operations, and in many other applications.




                       How to use Activated charcoal
  • Activated charcoal powder is the most effective form of charcoal that can be used. Take 2 spoonful of powder, place it in a tea cup or glass, and add purified water while rapidly stirring the charcoal into the water, then drink it down, along with a second glass of water.
             1 tsp./8 oz. Glass-PURE Water (1-3 times/day) - General Health
             1 tsp./8 oz. Glass-PURE Water (4-7 times/day) - General Illness (Flus, Colds)
             1 tsp./8 oz. Glass-PURE Water (8-12 times/day) - Serious Illness
  • Also, you can put charcoal into empty gelatin capsule. They may act more slowly than powder; the capsule must dissolve before the charcoal can work. Vegetarians who object to gelatin can use starch papers called Kokko-Oblates to allow convenient ingestion of activated charcoal powder.
  • Another thing you can do to make swallowing activated charcoal easy is to add it to liquid gelatin—freeze it and then eat it like desert for detox, it might take longer to work so therefore I don’t advice this method for poison control.
Medical researchers have discovered that Activated Charcoal is so effective both chemically and physically, because of its electrical charge and the thousands of microscopic tunnels created by the process used to make it. The medical profession uses it as an antidote. It is inexpensive, harmless, and easy to use.
Charcoal may adsorb and inactivate other medications. Usually you can take charcoal two hours before or after other drugs. If you are taking prescription drugs, check with your naturopathic doctor before beginning treatment with charcoal.
You can take charcoal intermittently for long periods or regularly for up to 12 weeks. 



 You can buy Activated charcoal supplement and begin detoxifying.
