Montmorillonite
The Secret to Longevity

The Tibetans in Western China, the Hunzas in Eastern Pakistan, the Georgians in Western Russia, the Armenians, the Abkhazians and the Azerbaijanis, the Vilcabamba in Ecuador, and the Titicaca in Peru routinely live to be 120 or even 140 years old, according to Nobel Prize nominee Dr. Joel Wallach. What is more, these people don't live in nursing homes, they live full, productive and enjoyable lives.

The reason for their longevity is that they inhabit high altitude areas where the soil contains abundant amounts of montmorillonite clay deposits, a mixture of minerals from volcanic ashes and ancient oceanic sediment consisting of seaweed, algae and other calciferous marine life that are believed to have been brought to the surface by volcanic actions.

Thanks to the montmorillonite, which soil experts value as an exceptionally good agricultural enhancement, their crops taste better, grow faster, and are more resistant to diseases. The balance of natural colloidal minerals, including the essential trace minerals present in montmorillonite are easy to assimilate and enhance the production of enzymes in all living organisms.

Dr. Edward Howell, the father of
modern enzyme research, proposed that enzyme deficiency is a significant cause of premature aging and the development of numerous degenerative diseases.

Similarly, plants grown on impoverished soil, deficient of minerals and nutrients, are more vulnerable to damage from insects and diseases and produce little more than malnourished bodies. Dr. D. W. Cavanaugh of Cornell University, writes: "There is only one major disease and that is malnutrition."

Chemical fertilizers gained a stronghold in American agriculture after it was discovered at the turn of the century (20th) that plants fed with the scientific trinity NPK (nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium) could survive and look fairly good. However, 40 years later, concerned ecologists and agriculturists were able to prove that plant vulnerability to fungus and insects was caused by chemical toxins and the lack of proper nutrients in the soil, leading to more and more crop loss.

For optimum health the human body requires more than 70 minerals. Dr. Jensen, the author of the book Empty Harvest and other authorities on the subject agree that it would be fairly easy to put these desperately needed minerals back into the soil.

Mineral rich polyfloramin, also known as humic shale, found in a primeval forest at the Wasatch mountain range in southern Utah, is possibly the most important bio-available soil supplement on planet earth.

Completely organic and natural polyfloramin also referred to as colloidal soil contains far more than NPK. Many, if not all, identifiable trace elements are found in this remarkable remnant of prehistoric humus matter. Colloidal soil can actually boost the content of vitamins, minerals and enzymes in plants, thus benefiting every entity from the plants themselves, to animals and people.

Colloidal soil works in harmony with, and encourages, proper pH balance, humus content, micro-organisms, NPK, water, sunlight and all great growing practices to create the most delicious and nutritious food possible.

This same colloidal soil has been used for over 70 years to produce colloidal minerals for man and beast, which have been proven effective in halting and reversing degenerative disease. Colloidal soil has been used by pioneers for almost a century in food production and by the native Indians for who knows how long before that to fertilize their corn, squash and other crops.

Colloidal soil, when added to other growing medium becomes the final link in restoring the complete electrical process between soil, plant, animal and human. It is also beneficial in restoring land from the effects of pollution, increase crop yields, reduce or destroy mold, fungus, viruses and parasites. It even minimizes crop failure due to extreme weather or radical temperature shifts.

The best book about colloidal soil is "Rare Earth, Forbidden Cure" by Dr. Joel Wallach. It examines the effects of depleted soils on the health of the human race. Additional information on the subject of mineral supplementation for the soil is to be found in The Secret Life of Plants and Secrets of the Soil by Peter Tompkins and Christopher Bird.

Unless our depleted soils are restored with proper nutrients on a massive scale, continued erosion and increases in chronic and acute diseases are inevitable. We can counteract this to a certain extent by ingesting these much needed nutrients directly, in the form of dense green chlorophyll rich foods and mineral supplementation.
