All About Shungite

Research suggests that Shungite assists in cellular metabolism, neurotransmission, digestive, filtration and immune systems by enhancing enzyme production and providing pain relief. Its has antibacterial, antihistamine, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and detoxifying properties. 

Shungite is energetically remarkable, often described as a miraculous stone and referred to as "The stone of life."

 

Where does Shungite come from?

Shungite is found near the small village of Shun'ga in Russia. This extraordinary mineral formed naturally over two billion years ago from ancient single-cell organisms.

 

What is Shungite?

Shungite has been used in Russian healing practices since the era of Peter the Great. It contains nearly the entire periodic table of elements and naturally occurring fullerenes (C60, C70), which are hollow carbon-based molecules known as nano-carbons. Recent research suggests these fullerenes can inhibit the growth of cancer cells and the development of the AIDS virus.

 

What are Fullerenes (C60,C70)?

The existence of giant molecules of carbon was a hypothesis that was a by-product of the calculations of quantum physics. 

• In 1970 Eiji Osawa, a Japanese researcher at the Toyohashi University of Technology, hypothesized that a complete form of carbon in the shape of a soccer ball could theoretically exist.
• In the 1980s a series of laboratory experiments were conducted to detect the existence of stable structures containing sixty carbon atoms.  On September 4, 1985, Harold Kroto, James R. Heath, Sean O'Brian, Robert Curl, and Richard Smalley discovered C60.  Shortly afterward they observed the first fullerenes;  leading to the award of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry to Kroto, Curl, and Smalley in 1996.

 

What makes Shungite so special?

Shungite is distinguished by its natural presence of fullerenes C60 and C70, as confirmed by Russian geochemists and subsequent international researchers.

• A Russian geochemist discovered the first proof that  the molecules of carbon called fullerenes occur naturally on the Earth.  Tsipursky, in collaboration with Peter Buseck, geochemist at Arizona State University at Tempe, found fullerenes and C60, and C70 in Shungite. Researchers reported this discovery in the journal Science in July 1992
• In 1998, other researchers in India confirmed the presence of fullerenes in Shungite
• In 2006, a study was conducted by scientists and reported in the Russian Journal of Applied Chemistry on the formation mechanism of fullerenes in Shungite

 

May Fullerenes have played in the creation of life on Earth?

Scientists speculate on the role fullerenes may have played in the origins of life on Earth, considering their presence in natural occurrences like soot, fulgurites (glassy rocks formed when lightening hits the ground), and interstellar space. The discovery of C60 and C70 fullerenes in a cloud of cosmic dust in a planetary nebula was made by Jan Cami in 2010 using NASA's Spitzer telescope. 

Fullerenes have also been found in meteoric impact craters (notably the Sudbury crater in Canada and the Allende and Murchison meteorites in Hawaii).  Scientific studies are under way at present to determine if the fullerenes come from the meteorites themselves or if they were created by its impact. This information has led scientists to speculate on the role that fullerenes may have played in the creation of life on Earth.

 

Shungite Properties and Effects on Health:

Thirty years of Russian Research   

Based on thirty years of Russian research, Shungite is recognized for its detoxifying abilities, including its capacity to neutralize electromagnetic fields from electronic devices. It acts as a natural antioxidant, boosts immunity, relieves pain, and suppresses allergies. 

Research by Grigory Andrievsky at the Institute of Therapy, Ukrainian Academy of Medical Sciences, was pivotal in identifying Shungite's health benefits due to its fullerenes. His findings indicate that natural fullerenes function as adaptogens, influencing both cellular and systemic levels without acting as a cure for specific illnesses.

His conclusions indicate that natural fullerenes act on a systemic level and not as treatment of an illness. They act as an adaptgen operating both at cellular level and at the level of the whole human body.

It's crucial to recognize that Shungite, particularly the natural fullerenes it contains, should not be regarded as medication. To grasp the beneficial effects of natural fullerenes, it's essential to first understand the nature and purpose of antioxidants.

A deficiency of antioxidants or an excess of free radicals can lead to cell destruction and contribute to serious conditions like heart disease, neurodegenerative disorders, and cancer. Exposure to harmful factors such as radiation can intensify the production of free radicals, weakening the body's systems and necessitating increased antioxidant intake to restore balance. Antioxidant deficiency is also a natural part of the aging process.

Professor Andrievsky's research team concluded that aqueous solutions of natural fullerenes are among the most potent antioxidants known today. Natural fullerenes not only reduce free radical concentrations more effectively than other antioxidants but their effects are also more potent and longer-lasting. This is because natural fullerenes act differently from classical antioxidants: while classical antioxidants neutralize free radicals by combining with them to form harmless molecules, fullerenes act as catalysts.

Due to their spherical shape resembling a soccer ball, natural fullerene molecules attract and encapsulate free radicals, transforming them into neutral compounds. Importantly, the fullerene itself remains unchanged and continues to attract more free radicals, perpetuating the cycle of neutralization. According to Andrievsky's work, fullerene molecules continuously catalyze the recombination of free radicals, even in small doses over extended periods, providing lasting antioxidant benefits.

Furthermore, Andrievsky's research identified additional benefits of natural fullerenes derived from Shungite:

• Normalization of cellular metabolism
• Enhanced enzymatic activity
• Stimulation of tissue regeneration
• Increased cellular resistance
• Anti-inflammatory properties
• Facilitation of neurotransmitter exchange

Natural fullerenes also combat toxins and aid in their neutralization within the body. They are particularly effective in reducing liver toxicity and promoting the elimination of toxins from this organ. Moreover, they contribute to the elimination of internal toxins resulting from burns and certain necrotic processes, thereby accelerating wound healing.

Andrievsky's findings also highlight the stabilizing effect of natural fullerenes on biomolecules exposed to excessive heat, such as during high fevers or in oncological applications. This property enhances the stability of proteins and biomolecules that undergo destructive molecular changes due to heat exposure.

In summary, Shungite's natural fullerenes offer multifaceted health benefits, acting as potent antioxidants and supporting various physiological processes without being considered a substitute for medical treatment. Their unique mechanism of action makes them a valuable component in maintaining overall health and well-being.

 

What is Shungite Water?

Shungite water

Qualities: Used for allergies, arthritis and osteoarthritis, asthma, autoimmune diseases, blood disorders, burns, cardiovascular disease, chronic fatigue syndrome, diabetes, gallbladder dysfunction, gastric disturbances, kidney and liver disorders pancreatic disorders and sore throats.

 

Case history: Shungite

Under EU regulations I am not allowed to claim healing properties for crystals, but I can share anecdotal evidence with you. Three years ago, shortly after starting to drink a litre (1 3/4 pints) of Shungite water a day, I caught a chest infection, so I upped my intake to 2 litres (3 1/2 pints). In the past, I had been hospitalized with pneumonia due to such infections. This time, although the infection lingered a while, it did not progress to pneumonia. Since then I have drunk Shungite water every day and have had two winters completely free of coughs and colds, despite travelling on trains and planes where infection has been riffed.

 

How to make shungite water?

Be wary of contaminated water!

The contemporary lay of the land is that drinking-water is extensively infected with radioactive species, fertilizers, pesticides, bacteria and viruses. Water pollution leads to the preponderant majority of all diseases, such as infection, oncologic, genetic, allergic diseases and even could negatively affect mental and physical growth and development. According to the statistics of the World Health Organization, more than 80% of all illnesses are one way or another connected with the consumption of the polluted drinking-water and this tendency is going to continue. Shungite is a nature material which has a great ability to cleanse your water and even saturate it with healthsome elements.

 

Clear your water and mineralize it

Shungite stone, found in the Republic of Karelia, Russia, has unique chemical composition (high proportion of carbon) and physical characteristics (sorption and antibacterial properties). Carbon nature of the stone and its porous structure result in extremely high filtering capacity. Shungite absorbs and holds up to 95% of polluting elements including heavy metals, fluoride, chlorine, pesticides, radon and harmful microorganisms. The amount of organic chemicals and man-made substances in shungite water is close to zero.

 

Energize your water and detox your body

Shungite has a great energizing effect on the water. Energized and mineralized shungite water insures better functions of cells and tissues as it contains natural antioxidants neutralizing free radicals. As a result, it improves your overall immune system and could be used to treat various diseases as well as to detox your organism.

 

 

Truly a marvel of the natural world, Shungite offers protection against the perils of our modern technological world and healing for both body and spirit.

 

Why wear Shungite and keep Shungite in your home?

First of all, in order to appreciate the energetic quality of Shungite, and how we can use this exceptional stone in our life.  We first have to understand What are  the harmful effects of electromagnetic fields (EMF) and radiation from computers, cell phones, Wi-Fi, and other electronic devices and appliances.

 

 

 

ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS AND PUBLIC HEALTH

Electromagnetic field (EMF) occur in nature and thus have always been present on earth.  However, during the twentieth century, environmental exposure to man-make sources of EMF steadily increased due to electricity demand, ever-advancing wireless technologies and changes in work practices and social behaviour.  Everyone is exposed to a complex mix of electric and magnetic fields at many different frequencies, at home and at work.

Potential health effects of man-made EMF have been a topic of scientific interest since the late 1800s, and have received particular attention during the last 30 years. 

EMF can be broadly divided into static and low-frequency electric and magnetic fields, where the common sources include power lines, household electrical.  appliances and computer and high frequency of radiofrequency fields for which the main sources are radar, radio and television broadcast facilities, mobile telephones and their base stations, induction heaters and anti-theft devices.

 

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU ARE EXPOSED THE ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS?

Electrical currents exist naturally in the human body, and are an essential part of normal bodily functions.  All nerves relay their signals by transmitting electric impulses.  Most biochemical reactions, from those associated with digestion to those involved in brain activity involve electrical processes.

Low-frequency electric fields influence the distribution of electric charges at the surface of conducting tissues and cause electric current to flow in the body.  Low-frequency magnetic fields induce circulating currents within the human body. The strength of these induced currents depends on the intensity of the outside magnetic field and the size of the loop through which the currents flows. When sufficiently large, these currents can cause stimulation of nerves and muscles.

At radiofrequencies (RF), the fields only penetrate a short distance into the body.  The energy of these fields is absorbed and transformed into the movement of molecules. Friction between rapidly moving molecules results in a temperature rise.

 

BIOLOGICAL EFFECTS AND HEALTH EFFECTS

Biological effects are measurable responses of organisms or cells to a stimulus or to a change in the environment.  reacting to changes in the environment is a normal part of life,  However, the body might not possess adequate compensation mechanisms to mitigate all environmental changes or stresses.  Prolonged environmental exposure even if minor, may constitute a health hazard if it results in stress. In humans, an adverse health effect results from a biological effect that causes detectable impairment in the health or well-being of exposed individuals.

 

CONCLUSIONS FROM SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH

LOW-FREQUENCY FIELDS

Scientific knowledge about the health effects of EMF is substantial and is based on a large number of epidemiological, animal and in-vitro studies.

In 2001, an expert scientific working group of WHO's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) reviewed studies related to the carcinogenicity of static and extremely low frequency (ELF) electric and magnetic fields.  Using the standard IARC classification that weighs human, animal and laboratory evidence, ELF magnetic fields were classified as possibly carcinogenic to humans based on epidemiological studies of childhood leukaemia 

 

WHAT IS THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION DOING?

In response to growing public concern over possible adverse health effects from exposure to a rising number and diversity of EMF sources, the World Health Organization (WHO) launched the International EMF Project in 1996.  All health risk assessments will be completed by 2006.

The International EMF Project brings together current knowledge and available resources of key international and national agencies and scientific institutions in order to assess health and environmental effects of exposure to static and tie varying electric and magnetic fields in the frequency range 0 - 300 GHz.  The Project has been designed to follow a logical progression of activities and and to identify any environmental impacts of EMF exposure.

The Project is administered at the World Health Organization headquarters in Geneva, since it is the only United Nations Organization with a clear mandate to investigate detrimental health effects from exposure of people to non-ionizing radiation.

WHO collaborates with 8 international agencies, over 50 national authorities, and 7 collaborating centres on non-ionizing radiation protection from major national government agencies.

Further details on the EMF Project and results achieved so far are available on the home page at: http://www.who.int/emf/

 

Radiation sources

The amount of harmful radiation surrounding us keeps growing. It is everywhere. Radio and TV have been two major sources of electromagnetic radiation for a long time. Recently, however, we have been trying to make our life more comfortable by using more technology. Thus, new sources of electromagnetic radiation have entered our life, including cell phones, tablets, base station antennas, Wi-Fi routers, access points, Bluetooth adapters, microwave ovens , computers, TVs, and more.

 

PERSONAL PROTECTION

Do the following apply to you?

	Prickly skin – your skin feels tingly and itchy, or you might feel a burning sensation when you're around Wi-Fi devices and computers
	Headaches – you experience strange debilitating headaches, pressure to the head like your head is in a vice or you experience moments when you feel zapped and confused….this is one of the most common symptoms
	Heart and respiratory problems – heart palpitations and tightness in the chest are common symptoms, you might feel like your heart is pounding or racing
	Difficulty concentrating – you find it harder and harder to concentrate, experience mental blocks and memory loss
	Poor digestion – you have stomach pains when you eat certain foods that previously didn’t affect you
	Difficulty sleeping – this interferes with your daily energy level, mood, and ability to accomplish tasks
	Dizziness and loss of balance – you feel dizzy and disoriented, especially when talking on a cell phone or around WiFi
	Tiredness – no matter how much you sleep, you are in a permanent state of fatigue
	Ear pain and ringing in the ears – you can hear a ringing or buzzing in your ears. A buildup of wax and abnormal growth in the hairs of your inner ear are not unusual as your ear tries to protect itself
	Pain in joints and muscles – you experience unexplained joint pain and muscular pain
	Stomach pains – you have an increasing sensitivity to different foods and difficulty digesting
	Muscle cramps – often in the feet and legs. Muscle spasms, particularly at night, are common too
	Depression – you experience feelings of hopelessness and despair
	A metallic taste in the mouth – particularly if you have metal fillings

 

If so, how can Shungite help?

The choice of protection can be divided into two distinct systems: either wearing or carrying the protection or changing the signal emitted by the apparatus using a localized protection.

In the first case, we are modifying the parameters of our own or density through reinforcing the first chakra.  This method allows our bioenergetic system to continuously correct the harmful interference. 

In the second case, we apply the protective influence to the harmful source and this correct and transforms the electromagnetic waves into biocompatible emanations.  In the case of pulsed electromagnetic waves (Wi-Fi, cordless phones, and cell phoness) the corrected influence emanates with the same strength as the original, harmful source but in a biocompatible and positive way.

Shungite Protection sets including Pyramids are the most useful and effective way of EMF and Geopathic stress proction!

 

 

 

Who is Shungite for?

Broadly speaking, almost every person would benefit from carrying the shungite stone. We surround ourselves by electronic devices and need to be protected from negative energy impact and potentially dangerous electromagnetic waves. There is a wide array of options how to use shungite stone for EMF protection and geopathic stress reduction, so everyone can choose the most appropriate one.  Shungite is a must-have for anyone working in healing professions. 

 

How shungite is worn?
Shungite should always be worn on the left side of the body; this is because energies enter our aura through the left side.

 

SHUNGITE HEALING APPLICATIONS

Subtle meridians and energetic pathways run through in body, carrying Qi, life force energy.  This flow can be heightened or sedated with crystals for maximum wellbeing.  Crystals also have useful pain-relieving properties and some,  Shungite, have been shown to be antibacterial and antiviral and can be utilized as  crystal essence or crystal water.

In the simplest application of crystal healing, the body can be brought back in balance by placing an appropriate crystal over the site of pain or discomfort, or over an organ. or, if you are already familiar with the body's meridian system, utilize this.

 

PERSONAL PROTECTION AND ENERGY ENHANCEMENT

We are all surrounded by unseen vibrations, imperceptible emanations and subtle energy fields, including thoughts and feeling,  imprints and impressions that can subtly disturb our sense of wellbeing.  This toxic energy is an intrusion which is silent, invisible and yet very powerful in its draining effect.  A filter is needed.  Crystals can help us to protect ourselves from the invisible invasion and enhance our own energy.

 

THE IMMUNE SYSTEM

Your immune system is what keeps you healthy.  It fights off bacterial and viral infections and regulates the detoxification processes in your body.  in addition to the physical immune system.  you have a subtle, psychic system that interacts with crystal energy.  Where this is active and balanced, wellbeing ensues.

One of the major governing points of the immune system is the thymus gland, which is situated in the middle of the upper chest, and a hand's breadth below the throat.  (This point is also the higher heart chakra.)

Shungite Necklace is used to stimulate the physical and subtle immune systems.

Bracelets are also very effective because the wrist is traversed by many meridian lines.  They are especially useful for those people who are in contact with a computer mouse or a telephone all day.  Bracelets can ward off numbness in the area.
