Decalcify the Pineal Gland


The pineal gland is one of the most mysterious glands of the human body, because it has many mystical properties. Modern scientists define the pineal gland as a pine cone shaped gland located at the middle of the brain. It is responsible for producing melatonin, helping regulate sleep patterns and influencing sexual development. Modern scientists’ definition of the pineal gland is accurate, but they are missing some of the most important features of this tiny organ.

Besides regulating sleep patterns and sexual development, the pineal gland acts like an inner portal that connects us to other dimensions, such as the dream and spiritual planes. Some researchers believe that it has the ability to connect us to other dimensions because of its mystical properties.

Is the pineal gland the third eye?
When we look at the external of the pineal gland, it looks like a pine cone. However, if we cut it open and look at its internal features, it looks somewhat similar to an eye. The interior walls of the pineal gland are made of rods and cones that are similar to those in the retina in our eyes. These features of the pineal gland may be the reasons why ancient civilizations and spiritual teachers always associated the pineal gland with the third eye, mind’s eye or inner eye.

Another important feature of the pineal gland is that it may produce dimethyltryptamine (DMT). DMT is a naturally occurring hallucinogenic chemical compound that can create hallucinatory effects similar to the effects of LSD. DMT and LSD should not be taken for long periods of time or in high doses, because they may cause damaging effects on the brain. The effects will vary depending on which type you are using.

Unlike our regular eyes, the pineal gland or third eye has the ability to see both physically and intuitively. The metaphysical properties of the third eye are most noticeable when we are asleep. Have you ever had an experience when you were about to fall asleep and started seeing your surrounding with a 360-degree view? This is your third eye being activated by your pineal gland. It is the all-seeing eye. This is why when you close your eyes and imagine hard enough, you can sometime see what you are imagining in your mind’s eye.

Benefits of a healthy Pineal gland
The pineal gland plays an important role in our physical health, because it regulates our sleep patterns and sexual development and protects our body from the damaging effects of free radicals. Besides being beneficial for our physical health, this mysterious organ is also important for our spiritual health since it is the gland that anchors our soul to our body. This allows our soul and body to bond and communicate. Without this bond, the body will die unless the body has no soul to begin with.

When we are more connected to our soul, our higher senses are more active, allowing us to feel more connected to the Universe and Creation. Our higher senses also make it harder for people to manipulate us. For these reasons, finding truth and inner peace become easier.

How to decalcify the pineal gland

Stop ingesting fluoride
One of the substances that does a great job calcifying the pineal gland is fluoride (sodium fluoride). Fluoride is very harmful to the pineal gland, because it disrupts the pineal gland’s natural functions by hardening its interior walls. Fluoride is also very toxic to the brain and other organs of the body.

The fluoride used for treating drinking water is not the natural calcium fluoride found in nature; rather, it is the synthetic industrial version, which is known as sodium fluoride. The natural version of fluoride (calcium fluoride) is not that harmful to us. It is usually found in the soil and spring water in very small quantities. The synthetic version of fluoride (sodium fluoride) is a hazardous waste of the phosphate fertilizer industry.

The name fluoride is a cover up term for many of the dangerous chemicals that make up fluoride, including arsenic, lead, aluminum, cadmium, fluorosilicic acid and even radioactive materials. If you live in the U.S., fluoride is commonly found in drinking water, fluoridated toothpaste and conventional produce.

To effectively remove fluoride from drinking water, you will need to use a water purification system that has a special filter called activated alumina (AAL). A water purification system worth checking out is made by Berkey. For more information on this water purifier, read my informative review of the Travel Berkey water filter system. Berkey water purification systems are portable and their black filters can be reused, making them great for emergency situations and camping. Reverse osmosis water filter systems are also great at removing fluoride. As for toothpaste, only use fluoride-free toothpaste.

Take an iodine supplement
Studies have shown that iodine supplement may help the body remove fluoride. An iodine supplement you may want to look into is NutrioDine. It is made of atomic iodine, a form of iodine that the body can easily utilize without the harmful effects of toxic buildups. I usually do not recommend taking potassium iodide because it can cause toxic buildups, especially if it is taken for long periods of time. For food, I recommend eating organic kelp because it is high in natural iodine.

Eat organic food
Most foods that are not organic usually contain harmful synthetic chemicals and heavy metals. Many of these toxins are toxic to the third eye. To reduce the level of these toxins in your body, you will need to eat organic plant-based food. Organic foods are produce with strict guidelines; therefore, they are usually free of harmful synthetic chemicals and genetically modified ingredients.

The levels of nutrients in organic foods are usually higher than conventional foods. Many of these nutrients are essential for purging toxins from your body. Magnesium and calcium are two important nutrients for helping your body eliminate toxins, especially fluoride. To learn more about these two nutrients, read my earlier article.

Consume natural butter oil and cod liver oil
High-vitamin butter oil and cod liver oil are believed to be very beneficial for the pineal gland, because they help decalcify calcium deposits. One of the best natural butter oils and cod liver oils is Green Pasture’s Blue Ice Royal Butter and Cod Liver Oil.


  • Switch to a raw-food diet that consists of fruits, vegetables, nuts and soy products. Meat should be avoided. It is said that animal DNA interacts with the pineal gland and disrupts its ability to reach its full potential.
  • Drink distilled water and avoid fluoride products. Switch to a fluoride-free toothpaste. Fluoride also can be found in tap water, which is why it is important to drink distilled water only or to distill your own. Fluoride is thought to calcify the pineal gland.
  • Purify the air in your home by purchasing an ozone machine or an air purifier. Breathing will become much easier when your air is clean, and breathing is important to activate the pineal gland.
  • Cover your windows with curtains or blinds.
  • Remove all electronics from your room, including computers, telephones and TVs, or anything that will emit light or distract you from your meditation. The pineal gland needs pure darkness to emit melatonin, which produces serotonin. These chemicals are crucial to psychic awareness.

Elena Ivanova, AKA Hellie Flow


Introducing Elena Ivanova, also known as  Hellie Flow. 

The Bio
My life revolves around working on always being the best version of myself I can be. I am extremely fit as a train and compete as an amateur boxer. 

Prior to getting involved with boxing I used to do fitness training, focusing on free weights and cardio. Once I got involved with boxing, the weightlifting had to stop as it was making me too stiff and slow for the fast pace amateur fights.

The Training 
This currently consists of 3-4 running sessions a week. One of them is a long slow controlled recovery run - 4-5 miles. 
The rest are quite intense. I would either do 3 miles as fast as I can or interval running where I run at a steady pace for a few minutes and then sprint for one. I would repeat this until the end of my run (3 miles). It kills! On some days I only do sprints…

The rest of my training is my main boxing training which I do 3-4 times a week. Each session consists of skipping, shadow boxing, pads and bag workout and ends with a hardcore explosive circuit training. 

The Diet
With all the training I obviously have to pay close attention to my diet, but this should be done by everyone in the world, regardless of whether they compete or not. Clean body, clean mind… 

As boxing is a cardio vascular sport which requires a lot of energy, carbohydrates are a big part of my diet. Good carbohydrates obviously and none of the white flour junk people usually eat. Good carbs are brown pasta and rice, wholemeal bread, muesli, oats etc. I also make sure I eat plenty of vegetables, fruits and protein based foods. I give my body every single element of food as the body needs each and every one of them to function at its best. So if for any reason you are thinking about cutting out any of the elements of food from your diet in order to lose wight, know that this is very very wrong. A regulated eating regime, with the right size portions combined with regular exercise will ensure you look amazing. You can eat everything as long as it is natural, unrefined and fresh.

Our Top 10 High Fibre Sources


Top 10 High Fibre Sources
Some Health advisor's recommend getting about 18g of fibre a day, but most people only eat about 14g. So how can you get more healthy fibre into your diet? Here are our Top 10 good sources of fibre:

1: Beans. All beans are good, whether baked beans, beans like kidney beans in chilli or beans in salads. Half a tin of baked beans (200g) is 7g of fibre.

2: Wholegrain and wholemeal. Skip white bread and pasta, look out for wholegrain and wholemeal on the labels.

3: Brown or wholegrain rice. White rice doesn't offer as much fibre.

4: Keep your finger on the pulses. As well as beans, chickpeas and lentils are full of fibre, high in protein and low fat.

5: Nuts. Almonds, pecans, and walnuts have more fibre than other nuts.

6: Jacket potato - the skin is the important bit. A small baked potato has 3g fibre.

7: Dried fruit. If fresh fruit isn’t available, dried fruit offers a fibre-full snack. A 50g portion of dried figs is 4g fibre.

8: Bran based cereal and other healthy cereal options. To count as high-fibre food, it has to contain at least 6g of fibre per 100g. A 30g bowl of bran flakes delivers 4g of fibre.

9: Porridge. Porridge is made from oats which are a great source of fibre.

10: Fruit and veg. As much fruit or veg portions and the crunchier, the better. A medium-sized apple alone is 2g fibre.

Alzheimers Disease - and its links with ALUMINIUM


Alzheimers Disease - and its links with ALUMINIUM
Alzheimer's disease, or senile dementia of the Alzheimer's type, will be one of America's greatest health problems in the coming years. Sixty percent of patients now admitted to nursing homes have this diagnosis, and the number of Alzheimer's victims is projected to increase as much as eight-fold by the middle of the next century.

There is a strong connection between aluminium and Alzheimer's disease. Research clearly demonstrates abnormally high accumulations of aluminium within the brains of Alzheimer's victims. Independent studies performed in Norway, the United Kingdom, France and Canada, show a direct correlation between the prevalence of Alzheimer's disease and aluminium concentrations in the drinking water.1,2,3,4 In fact, one British study reported in the highly respected medical journal; The Lancet, showed the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease to be 50 percent greater where drinking water contained high levels of aluminium.5

The connection between aluminium in the brain and Alzheimer's Disease is so convincing that various studies are under way to explore whether aluminium in the brain can be removed, and if so, to determine if this would be beneficial for Alzheimer's patients. One fascinating study also reported in The Lancet, showed that by administering desferrioxamine, a chemical known to remove aluminium and other metals from the body, the progression of dementia associated with Alzheimer's disease was significantly slowed.6

In a recent article appearing in the Townsend Letter for Doctors (November 1993), Dr. Michael A. Weiner, executive director of the Alzheimer's Research Institute summarized our present understanding of the dangers of Aluminium exposure when he stated "... Aluminium has been known as a neurotoxic substance for nearly a century. The scientific literature on its toxic effects has now grown to a critical mass. It is not necessary to conclude that Aluminium causes Alzheimer's disease to recommend that it be reduced or eliminated as a potential risk. It is the only element noted to accumulate in the tangle-bearing neurons characteristic of the disease and is also found in elevated amounts in four regions of the brain of Alzheimer's patients."

Our exposure to Aluminium is certainly nothing new. It is one of the most common elements in the earth's crust and has long made its way into our foods. Ancient man consumed Aluminium when rocks were used to mill grain into flour. Minimal exposure to Aluminium isn't a problem; our bodies can excrete small amounts very efficiently. Laboratory research has shown that we can handle about twenty milligrams of Aluminium ingestion each day.7 Unfortunately, most of us are exposed to and ingest far more Aluminium than our bodies can handle.

What are the sources of Aluminium that contribute to toxicity? Aluminium is an ingredient in a wide-range of items that many of us use every day. Some of these products include processed foods, medications and even personal hygiene products.

Aluminium is added as an emulsifying agent in many processed cheeses, especially those which are single-sliced. It is found in cake mixes, self-rising flour, prepared doughs, nondairy creamers, pickles and in some brands of baking powder. Aluminium lauryl sulfate is a common ingredient in many shampoos, while several anti dandruff shampoos, including Selsun-Blue, contain magnesium Aluminium silicate. Aluminium is an active ingredient in most antiperspirants (Aluminium chlorhydrate). However, since people have started becoming more aware of the dangers of Aluminium, some "Aluminium free" antiperspirants are now being advertised.

Aluminium is readily absorbed by foods cooked in Aluminium cookware. In a study conducted at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, tomatoes cooked in an Aluminium pot had a two to four milligram increase in Aluminium content per serving.8 Perhaps the most significant source of Aluminium exposure comes from medications. Most antacid preparations, for example, may contain 200 milligrams or more of elemental Aluminium in a single tablet! That's ten times more than the presumably acceptable 20 milligrams per day.

[Note: When purchasing cookware, take a magnet with you to the store to help identify steel cookware. -ed.] 

ALUMINIUM
Aluminium is the most abundant metallic element in the earth's crust. It is abundant in the soil, water and air particles. Acidic rain increases the amount that is leached into our water supplies.
Aluminium is an abundant element in dirt. It is found naturally in nearly all foods and herbs. Herb companies, knowing how much Aluminium a pure herb should contain, can use a laboratory measure of Aluminium content to indicate how clean the plant (especially root material) is; extra dirt would add to the aliminum content.

Aluminium is not a "heavy metal." It is used in industry where economy, stength and light weight are needed i.e. aircraft parts and beer cans, etc.

Minute amounts of Aluminium are needed in the brain to activate vital enzyme systems. It may even play a role in protein synthesis.

There is a distinct difference between organic and inorganic forms of Aluminium.

Sources of Aluminium and Aluminium compounds
Aluminium is primarily absorbed into the body through the digestive tract. Dietary intake ranges widely from 5 to 150 mg/day. These levels do not seem to interfere with the absorption or utilization of calcium, phosphorous, zinc, copper, selenium, iron or magnesium. Adequate calcium intake may decrease the risk of Aluminium toxicity.

It is also absorbed through the lungs and skin.

Treated municipal water - Many municipal water supplies are treated with alum (Aluminium sulfate) to get rid of murkiness. At least seven separate studies have shown that people drinking water high in alum are more likely to develop Alzheimer's than people drinking water low in alum. The worst part is that alum can combine with fluoride in the blood to form Aluminium fluoride. About 300,000,000 pounds of sodium fluoride, an industrial waste from Aluminium refiners, is added to our water supply each year. (see Fluoridated Water)

Alzheimers Disease - and its links with ALUMINIUM
Aluminium researcher Elizabeth Jeffery has found evidence that fluoride interferes with the body's ability to get rid of Aluminium. She says, "My research indicates that fluoride readily combines with Aluminium in the blood, and that Aluminium fluoride, once formed is very poorly excreted in the urine." She believes that the Aluminium fluoride then becomes concentrated in the bones (where fluorine replaces calcium) and continues to slowly release and recycle through the body over time. Albert Burgstahler, a professor of biochemistry at the University of Kansas, has found that Aluminium flouride can pass unusually well through biological barriers, notably the blood-brain barrier, and accululate in the brain. (See "Toxicity in brain tissues" below)

The EPA Secondary Maximum Contaminant level for Aluminium in water is 50 ppb. City water filtered through a "Multi-pure" system is usually less than 10 ppb. Coca-Cola Classic in an Aluminium can has been measured at 6,160 ppb. (Don't be too shocked. The amounts of Aluminium in baked goods, antacids and antiperspirants leaves your Cola in the dust.)

Carbonated beverages are acidic. When doctors at John Hunter Hospital checked containers of 52 different beverages, they found soft drinks in cans contained up to 4 1/2 times the recommended amount of Aluminium that drinking water can contain. Medical Journal of Australia 156(9): 604-5, 1992

Aluminium alloy cookware and containers - Cooking utensils and Aluminium beverage cans contribute substantially to our load of Aluminium. Beer has more Aluminium when it is packaged in Aluminium cans. It is best to use stainless steel cooking containers or glass or iron cookware. The older your Aluminium cookware is the more rapidy it corrodes. Acid-forming foods dissolve Aluminium more rapidly. The amount of Aluminium ingested from cookware, however is far exceeded by the amounts ingested from food additives.

Food - Sodium Aluminium phosphate is an additive in most baking powders, cake mixes and self-rising flower.. If this form of Aluminium combines with maltol, a sugar-like flavoring agent, the resulting Aluminium compound is able to get through the blood-brain barrier 90 times as well.
Potassium alum is used to whiten bleached flour. 
Aluminium compounds are widely used as additives to prepared foods. They lighten food texture, adjust acidity and keep chunks of processed vegetables and fruits firmer.
Aluminium is even used in infant formulas and beer.
Sodium aluminosilicate or Aluminium calcium silicate are added to table salt to absorb moisture and keep it from caking.
Sodium Aluminium phosphate is used as an emulsifier in processed cheese.

OTC and prescription drugs - Aluminium is found in many over-the-counter painkillers, anti-inflammatory drugs and douche preparations. For instance, aspirin is commonly buffered with Aluminium hydroxide or Aluminium glycinate. If you wash down your aspirin with orange juice, the buffering powder becomes Aluminium citrate which is able to get through the blood-brain barrier five times as well.

Aluminium is included in many dental amalgams. It is added to some toothpastes. Read labels carefully for chemicals such as dihydroxyAluminium.

Aluminium chlorhydrate is a prominant component of many antiperspirants. It is DESIGNED to be absorbed. Studies show that regular use of these product can raise the risk of Alzheimer's by as much as three-fold.

Aluminium hydroxide in antacids - Aluminium hydroxide in antacids may be the most common cause of Aluminium toxicity in the United States (where antacids are widely advertised and inappropriately used). Elizabeth Jeffery, a research scientist at the Institute for Environmental Studies at the University of Illinois says that "A normal dose of Tums will give you 5 grams of Aluminium hydroxide a day." This is several hundred times the amount normally ingested from food sources. Besides creating digestive complications by neutralizing stomach acid, other side effects are described below.

Aluminium smelting plants - People who work in Aluminium smelting plants may experience dizziness, loss of coordination and balance and unusual fatigue. This could be the result of Aluminium accumulating in nervous tissues.

Aluminium and silicon - These are two most abundant elements in dirt. When these two elements are absorbed in the intestines they form _?_ compounds that accumulate in the cerebral cortex, blocking nerve impulses. This is agravated by calcium deficiencies.

Excretion and removal of aluminium (4 lines of defense)
The body is easily able to manage normal, natural levels of aluminium. The body excretes 74-96% of our normal dietary intake of aluminium. Most of the aluminium forms insoluble salts, especially phosphate salts, in the intestine. These are mostly excreted in the feces instead of being absorbed. In excess, however, this can produce a phosphorous deficiency which leads to calcium loss which leads to structural problems.

The aluminium that is absorbed is only poorly excreted by the kidneys and can easily accumulate in body tissues. It tends to concentrate in the brain, liver, thyroid and lungs.

The elderly and those with kidney damage are especially at risk of accumulating aluminium.
Toxicity in soft tissues and organs
Aluminium can be toxic if it is present in tissues in excessive amounts. Usually, the body shows some ability to adapt to increased aluminium intake over time. Individuals with hypophhosophatemia or abnormal bone metabolism adapt less well.

Aluminium is excreted through the kidneys. Excessive amounts damage the kidneys, impair kidney function and can cause nephritis and may produce excessive sweating. Chronic renal insufficiency increases the severity of other aluminium-induced diseases.

Aluminium toxicity produces symptoms of poor calcium metabolism similar to osteoporosis including softening of the bones and rickets. Aluminium ingestion impairs absorption of selenium and phosphorus. Because low serum phosphate causes the bones to dissolve and the muscles to weaken, consumption of Aluminium reduces total bone and matrix formation as well as periosteal bone and matrix formation. The weakened muscles can become painful, ache or twitch. Dialysis patients who get large doses of Aluminium risk the formation of osteomalacia.


Gastointestinal irritation and disturbances produce colic, loss of apetite (anorexia), esophagitis, gastroenteritis

Hepatic dysfunction (decreased liver function) can result in anemia and loss of energy.

Additional symptoms include dyspnea, headaches.

Benefits of organic Aluminium in the brain
Although there is a large amount of Aluminium in dirt, it actually only found in small amounts in plants. Minute amounts of organic Aluminium are needed in the brain to catalyze (activate) important enzyme systems. The herb gotu kola, which has a reputation as a memory booster and brain enhancer is assayed to have amoung the highest levels of Aluminium of all herbs. (see Organic vs. Inorganic.)

Toxicity of inorganic Aluminium in nerve and brain tissues
Suprisingly, Aluminium is needed in very minute amounts to activate enzyme systems in the brain.

Excessive Aluminium evidently accumulates in long-lived cells such as nerve cells where it gradually poisons and kills the cells.

Brain functions are disturbed by the deposit of (even relatively small) excessive levels of Aluminium. When Aluminium salts accumulate in the brain, they reduce mental faculties. Aluminium toxicity in the brain produces symptoms similar to Alzheimer's disease. Symptoms include forgetfulness, speech disturbances, memory loss, dementia, psychosis, extreme neverousness, encephalopathy, ataxia and seizures.

Alzheimer's disease is probably directly related to accumulation of inorganic Aluminium in the brain. Aluminium-injected rats learn at a slower rate and have Aluminium concentrations in their brains parallel to thos found in the brains of Alzeheimer's patients. There has been some controversy over the concept that Aluminium deposits may be result of Alzheimer's rather than the cause of it. Some believe that Aluminium becomes deposited on the debris of dead cells.

The level of Aluminium in ground water around the world does not seem to be related to the incidence of Alzheimer's.

Aluminium toxicity can also produce motor nerve paralysis and localized numbness.

The Aluminium - Magnesium Link
Research have suggested that Aluminium may be more likely to accumulate in the brains of persons whose diets are magnesium-deficient -- which, unfortunately, includes 90% of Americans! Several studies have shown that animals fed diets low in magnesium accumulate high concentrations of Aluminium in the Central Nervous System. One of magnesium's many functions is to activate the enzyme tubulin involved in the maintenance of nerve tissue cells. It has been suggested that when there is not enough Magnesium in the body to plug into the appropriate receptor site on the tubulin enzyme, Aluminium takes its place instead. This leads to the inactivation of tubulin and, consequently, inadequate nerve function. Malic acid can pull Aluminium away from this enzyme, making a place for magnesium. This may be a protection against Alzheimer's disease. Malic Acid is found abundantly in fruits such as apples. Malic Acid is also produced in the human body. It is a metabolite of the Krebs cycle the set of biochemical reactions used to produce 90% of all energy in the cells of the body. Malic Acid readily crosses the Blood-Brain-Barrier and has been shown to bind to Aluminium. It functions in the body by drawing Aluminium away from the tubulin enzyme, so that Magnesium can plug into the receptor sites instead. Malic Acid's unique ability to bind with Aluminium means it can be flushed out of the body, preventing unwanted build-up.

Because a Magnesium-deficient diet may increase the amount of Aluminium taken up and stored by the body, it is vitally important that we take in sufficient amounts.
Getting rid of Aluminium and remediating the damage
"The evidence is strong enough that the prudent person will eliminate all food and cosmetic sources of Aluminium, and will use Aluminium cooking utensils only if they are coated." Gary Price Todd, M.D., Nutrition, Health and Disease, 1985

High fiber diet - Fiber in the diet will bind with Aluminium salts and carry them out with your next bowel movement. Apple pectin, for instance is an effective binding agent.

Algin has the reputation of removing heavy metals. Typically, 5 capsules of algin are consumed in the morning and again at noon for 10 days. After another 10 days of rest, repeat the process. Continue for 3 months.

Calcium and Magnesium supplements - They bind with Aluminium and will carry it out of the body.

Intravenous chelation? - Several dozen sessions of intravenous EDTA chelation will remove a significant load of metals from the body including obstructive calcum plaques from the arteries. Aluminium is not a "heavy metal." There is some controversy about the ability of intravenous EDTA chelation to remove Aluminium.

"Oral chelation" - A serious program of specific nutrients can have a similar effect as intravenous chelation when continued for some months. It is generally believed that oral chelating agents can displace Aluminium from tissues.

Lecithin - Bathes and protects the nerves including the brain.

B complex vitamins, especially B6 - are important for removing excess metals from the body.

TOXIC HEAVY METALS: SOURCES AND SPECIFIC EFFECT - Recent studies suggest that Aluminium may be involved in the progression of Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's disease, Guam ALS-PD complex, "Dialysis dementia", Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), senile and presenile dementia, neurofibrillary tangles, clumsiness of movements, staggering when walking and an inability to pronounce words properly (Berkum 1986; Goyer 1991; Shore and Wyatt, 1983). To date, however, we do not completely understand the role that Aluminium plays in the progression of such human degenerative syndromes. 

Chronic Aluminium exposure has contributed directly to hepatic failure, renal failure, and dementia (Arieff et al., 1979). Other symptoms that have been observed in individuals with high internal concentrations of Aluminium are colic, convulsions, esophagitis, gastroenteritis, kidney damage, liver dysfunction, loss of appetite, loss of balance, muscle pain, psychosis, shortness of breath, weakness, and fatigue (ATSDR 1990). Behavioral difficulties among schoolchildren have also been correlated with elevated levels of Aluminium and other neuro-toxic heavy metals (Goyer 1991). And, Aluminium toxicity may also cause birth defects in newborns (ATSDR 1990).

The effects of "Coke" aka Cola, AKA COCA COLA


Did you know?? 

After 10 minutes: Ten tea spoons of sugar contained in a glass of Cola, cause devastating “strike” on the organism and the only cause, by reason of not vomiting, is the phosphoric acid which inhibits the action of sugar. 

After 20 minutes: A leap of insulin levels in bloodstream occurs. The liver converts all the sugar into fat.

After 40 minutes: Ingestion of caffeine is finally completed. The eye pupils are expanding. Blood pressure rises, because the liver disposes more sugar into bloodstream. The adenosine receptors get blocked, thereby preventing drowsiness.

After 45 minutes: Body raises production of dopamine hormone, which stimulates the brain pleasure center. Heroin has the same principle of operation.

After 1 hour: Phosphoric acid binds calcium, magnesium and zinc in the gastrointestinal tract, which supercharges metabolism. Releasing of calcium through urine also rises.

After more than 1 hour: Diuretic effect of the drink enters in “the game”. The calcium, magnesium and zinc are removed out of the organism, which are a part of our bones, as well as sodium. At this time we have already become irritable or subdued. The whole quantity of water, contained in a coca cola, is removed by the urine.
Actually, when having a cold bottle of Coke and enjoying its undeniable freshness, do we know what chemical “cocktail” we pour into our throats? The active ingredient of Coca-Cola is orthophosphoric acid. Due to its high acidity, cisterns used for transporting of the concentrate have to be equipped with special reservoirs designed for highly corrosive materials.
Let's have a look at “the anatomy” of one of the most advertised products of “Coca-Cola Co.” – Coca-Cola Light without caffeine. 

This drink contains Aqua Carbonated, E150D, E952, E951, E338, E330, Aromas, E211.

Aqua Carbonated – this is sparkling water. It stirs gastric secretion, increases the acidity of the gastric juice and provokes flatulency – plenty evolution of gases. Furthermore, spring water is not used, but is used regular filtered water.
E150D – food coloring, obtained through the processing of sugar at specified temperatures, with or without addition of chemical reagents. In the case with coca-cola, ammonium sulfate is added.
E952 – Sodium Cyclamate is a sugar substitute. Cyclamate is a synthetic chemical, has  sweet taste, which is 200 times sweeter than sugar, and is used as an artificial sweetener. In 1969 it was banned by FDA, since it as well as saccharin and aspartame, caused cancer in rats' urinary bladder. In 1975, prohibition seized also Japan, South Korea and Singapore. In 1979, WHO (World Health Organization), “who knows why?” rehabilitated cyclamates and recognizing them as safe.

E950 – Acesulfame Potassium. 200 times sweeter than sugar, containing methyl ether, where it aggravates the operation of the cardiovascular system. Likewise, it contains asparaginic acid which can also cause excitant effect on our nervous system and in time it can lead to addiction. Acesulfame is badly dissolved and is not recommended for use by children and pregnant women.

E951 – Aspartame. A sugar substitute for diabetics and is chemically unstable: at elevated temperature it breaks down into methanol and phenylalanine. Methanol is very dangerous: 5-10ml can cause destruction of the optic nerve and irreversible blindness. In warm soft drinks, aspartame transforms into formaldehyde which is very strong carcinogen. Some number of cases with aspartame poisoning include: unconsciousness, headaches, fatigue, dizziness, nausea, palpitation, weight gain, irritability, anxiety, memory loss, blurry vision, fainting, joint pains, depression, fertility, hearing loss and etc. Aspartame can also provoke the following diseases: brain tumors, MS (Multiple Sclerosis), epilepsy, Graves' disease, chronic fatigue, Alzheimer's, diabetes, mental deficiency and tuberculosis.

E338 – Orthophosphoric Acid. This can cause irritation of skin and eyes. It is used for production of phosphoric acid salts of ammonia, sodium, calcium, aluminum and also in organic synthesis for production of charcoal and film tapes, for production of refractory materials, ceramics, glass, fertilizers, synthetic detergents, medicine, metalworking, and textile and oil industries. Food orthophosphoric acid is used in the production of carbonated water and for preparation of ingredients in pastry. It is known that orthophosphoric acid interfere with the absorption of calcium and iron from the body, which can cause weakening of bones and osteoporosis. Other side effects are thirst and skin rashes.

E330 – Citric Acid. It is widely spread in nature and is used in pharmaceutical and food industries. Salts of citric acid (citrates) are used in food industry as acids, preservatives, stabilizers, and in medical fields – for preserving blood. Aromas – unknown aromatic additives.

E211 – Sodium Benzoate. It is used in production of some food products, as an anti-bacterial and anti-fungal agent. These products refer to jams, fruit juices and fruit yoghurts. It's not recommended for use by asthmatics and people who are sensitive to aspirin. A study conducted by Peter Piper at the Sheffield University in Britain, found that this compound causes significant damage to DNA. 

According to his words, sodium benzoate which is an active component in preservatives doesn't destroy DNA, but deactivating it. This can lead to cirrhosis and degenerative diseases like Parkinson's disease. So, what turns out? Well, it turns out that “the secret recipe” of coca-cola is just one advertising play. What kind of secret may be there, when it's well known to us that this is a weak solution of cocaine with preservatives, colorants, stabilizers and etc. I.e., this is legalized cocaine addiction plus pure poison.


Diet Coke is even worse, because the aspartame in it, replaces sugar, becoming pure neurotoxic poison. So, if you can't imagine a life without coca-cola, take advantage of the following recommendations: - Many distributors of coca-cola in U.S use this drink for cleaning their truck engines. - Many police officers in U.S have bottles of coca-cola in their cars and when a car accident happens, they wash the blood out of the road with it. - Coca-Cola is a great tool for removing rusty stains on chrome surfaces of cars. To remove corrosion from car battery, pour it with Coke and the corrosion will disappear. - To unscrew a rusty screw, dip a cloth in coca-cola and wrap around it for several minutes. - To clean stains from clothes – pour coca-cola on dirty clothes, add washing powder and run the washing machine as usual. You will be surprised of the results. - In India, some farmers use coca-cola instead of pesticides for pest extermination, because it's cheaper and the effect is completely satisfying. So, coca-cola undeniably is a very useful product. The key is to be used for intended purposes, but not for drinking!
