What almond milk, calcium pills and zeolites all have in common... you may be swallowing ROCKS!

Did you know that calcium pills are linked to heart attacks? Were you
aware that commercial almond milk is made with ground up inorganic
oyster shells or limestone? Has anyone told you that zeolite powders
are mined out of the ground from crushed rocks containing high levels
of lead and aluminum?
The most important nutritional warning I can offer you today is tostop
eating and drinking rocks.
In almond milk, cheap, low-grade calcium is mixed with water and
carageenan (a thickener) to make a thick, whitish substance that
visually resembles the color and texture of almond milk. Cheap calcium
carbonate is added to almond milk to make it compete with the calcium
content of regular cow's milk. But the result is a nutritional
catastrophe: You're drinking inorganic, crushed oyster shells or
limestone!
Cheap calcium pills arealmost always contaminated with LEAD. They're
derived from low-grade, inorganic sources of raw materials made almost
entirely withcalcium carbonate. This isn't the kind of calcium your
body needs. In fact, calcium carbonate probably contributes to artery
and kidney calcification. Ditch the cheap calcium pills and get
calcium from high-grade sources or your food (plants).
Zeolites are mined out of the ground like rocks. They're made from
aluminosilicates (high in aluminum) and typically contain very high
concentrations of the heavy metal LEAD (typically 20 - 60 ppm). When
swallowed in large, granular form, they pass right through your
digestive tract undigested. That's because your weak stomach acid
can't dissolve rocks. But when zeolitesare crushed into fine powders,
they release both aluminum and lead during digestion in your stomach.
This greatly concerns me because people who eat zeolite powders have
been shown to urinate increased levels of aluminum and lead,
indicating these metals are likely getting absorbed into their blood.
Stop eating ROCKS and start eating REAL FOODI'm frequently astonished
at how so many people in the health industry can be led astray from
the basic fundamentals of mindful nutrition. It's not rocket science
to realize thatyou should get your minerals from food sources, not
rocks.
It's also not rocket science to realize that you probably shouldn't be
swallowed rocks suspended in water through the use of carageenan or
other thickeners. Suspended molecules of calcium carbonatedoes not
equate to "milk."
And if you're hoping to eliminate toxic heavy metals from your body,
it makes little sense to keep eating them every day in the form of
fine powder zeolites.
Sadly, some of what's being offered in the food and dietary supplement
industries is marketed to consumers in a misleading way, either
denying consumers the knowledge of what the substance is really made
of or wildly exaggerating claims of what the substance can really
accomplish in the body. While there really are true "miracle"
nutrients like vitamin D and resveratrol, cheap, low-grade, inorganic
rocks probably aren't good for you to eat or drink on a regular basis.
Follow these commonsense health fundamentals from the Health Ranger•
If you want to drink almond milk,make it yourselffrom almonds and
water (plus a blender and a nut milk bag). Stop buying commercial
"fake" almond milks sold at the grocery store.
• If you're looking to boost your calciumintake, get it from
full-spectrum calcium sources (like seaweed calcium) or from foods
that are naturally high in calcium (like broccoli). Stop taking cheap
calcium carbonate pills.
• If you want to detox daily,drink clean water, exercise in
moderation, and let your body achieve the detox it naturally
accomplishes on its own. Don't swallow inorganic materials in some
false hope that they will magically pull heavy metals out of your
body's tissues and organs. That's nothing but empty hype being spewed
by dishonest marketers.
Avoid sketchy dietary supplementsfrom low-grade sources or companies
that make wild, unsubstantiated claims. Don't swallow nutritional
supplements unless you're sure they've beentested for heavy metals,
and beware of anything from China.
Above all,strive to get as much nutrition as you can from growing your
own foodin nutrient-rich soils or hydroponic grow boxes. The more
nutrition you can get from food, the better off you'll be in the long
run.
