Detoxification is still in the news. Dr. Delgado’s revelation that graphene oxide was identified in COVID-19 vaccines still resonates through Internet social media channels.
We’ve written about and experienced detoxification before we founded Carotec. Our personal experience began on the “Kelley Program” in the 1970s and intersecting with Charlotte Gerson, Dr. Hans Nieper and a variety of others who were early pioneers in what is now a highly commercialized (and largely co-opted) health movement.
Dr. Kelley’s program for pancreatic cancer involved heavy supplementation, especially pancreatic enzymes, and coffee enemas, which the Gerson clinic also uses to this day. Kelley also urged monthly fasts and kidney stone “flushes.” Kelley got results as Dr. Nicholas Gonzalez confirmed in numerous accounts.
We did the Kelley program in the 1970s and still do coffee enemas as part of our own detoxification regimen. Email us at info@carotec.com and we’ll refer you to information, if you’re interested.
When it comes to detoxification, disinformation is rampant. We wade through articles, blogs and opinions, and realize that anyone who attempts to do their research will likely end up confused.
We hope to clear up confusion, but we must caution that the numerous health experts have very different opinions and perspectives. While we don’t know everything there is to know, we do lean on our decades of experience and verifying claims.
Most of “us” in the alternative health world agree that we’re bathing in toxicity. The air we breathe, the water we drink, the foods we eat are rife with toxicity. We routinely point out that electromagnetic frequency radiation is its own poison but also makes other toxins, such as mold, bacteria, parasites and virus more dangerous to human health. We equate health to our body’s ability to detoxify. This has become known as one’s “toxic burden.”
We do not have a simple, quick fix or “Detox in 7 days” marketing pitch.
We offer supplements and advice that go a long way to helping your body rid itself and protect against toxicity. But realize that detoxification is not quickly achieved, and for us, it’s part of a healthy lifestyle. We don’t live in a bubble, so to speak. People tend to forget that environmental toxicity emerges without their knowledge. The powers that be do not send memos when they engage in intensive chemical saturation of the skies or increase electromagnetic frequencies. Some who are anti-supplement believe that they can detoxify with organic foods, such as raw milk. While we only buy organic foods, drink organic raw milk, dairy, and the like, we realize that geoengineering alone makes our foods more toxic than they should be. We are not saying you should give up and eat processed foods: Not at all. But you should not delude yourself into thinking that clean foods exist.
This is why detoxification is a critical part of our supplement line.
As for products, a recent addition is Zeolite, a unique mineral that has a unique electrical charge and “cage” like composition that attracts and removes a variety of toxic compounds. Zeolite shouldn’t be controversial, but it’s hard to understand that something you ingest isn’t absorbing into the body (as with other supplements and foods you eat). Zeolite traps and removes heavy metals, toxins, pesticides, mold, microplastics, and pathogenic bacteria. A few bloggers “warned” about Zeolite, but it’s not toxic to the body because it is not absorbed; again, it traps and removes, and it is not absorbed.
Zeolite’s benefits have been established and reviewed by actual scientists and academics who recognize its value for animal and human health. A paper published in Molecules titled “Zeolite Clinoptillite: Therapeutic Virtues of an Ancient Mineral,” describes Zeolite quite well; the authors are affiliated with the University of Brescia in Italy and the Karolinska Institute in Sweden (where Nobel Prizes in Physiology and Medicine are awarded): https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30999685/ Another paper by scientists and academics at the University of Rijeka, Croatia, General Hospital Pula, Croatia, University College London and University of Pula, Croatia explains Zeolite’s safety: https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/pharmacology/articles/10.3389/fphar.2018.01350/
Higher glutathione levels are linked to better health and play a critical role in detoxification. Many supplements increase glutathione levels such as our S-Acetyl-Glutathione, Alpha Lipoic Acid, Livanew and Vitamin C Plus.
Glutathione is the body’s master antioxidant because it protects cells damaged by environmental toxicity. Glutathione helps convert toxic compounds into less harmful forms that are excreted through urine or bile. When toxicity overcomes the body’s ability to remove them, glutathione levels plummet in the body. Many vitamins, minerals, and cofactors rely on normal glutathione stores to work, so when glutathione is lacking, these vital substances lack the ability to do their jobs. For instance, vitamins E and C are recycled (given more activity) when glutathione stores are sufficient; one of our first products in the late 1980s was alpha lipoic acid because not only does alpha lipoic acid increase glutathione levels, it also helps extend the life of vitamin C and E in the body.
We reintroduced S-Acetyl-Glutathione in a more powerful dose (300 mg per capsule) and cut the price per milligram because we wanted to make sure customers have options, in addition to alpha lipoic acid. S-Acetyl-Glutathione is superior to reduced glutathione and “liposomal” glutathione because it absorbed into the membrane of the mitochondria and crosses the blood brain barrier, making it a neurological support powerhouse.
Our Alpha Lipoic Acid is made by an Italian company that provides the same product we purchase to companies that market it in highly regulated countries. Our reporting on alpha lipoic shows it has numerous studies for removing heavy metals and contaminants. This is because glutathione is a great detoxifier.
Our Livanew is a milk thistle extract made by Euromed, which has achieved remarkable bioavailability without the use of nanoparticles or other synthetic compounds. Milk thistle is known to boost glutathione levels in the liver. Remarkably, milk thistle also shows promise for recovery of pancreatic function in animal models, and in human studies, improvement in the ability to metabolize carbohydrates. Our source of milk thistle was used by Spanish oncologists as part of the treatment for lung and brain cancer. This preliminary study demonstrates the incredible power of our milk thistle.
Vitamin C Plus has three ingredients: Non-GMO European-made ascorbic acid and Masquelier’s Grape and Pine Bark OPC. All three ingredients help boost glutathione levels in the body. OPCs have the remarkable ability to support the blood vessel system, all 60,000 miles. A study by researchers at Maastricht University explained why Masquelier’s OPCs are beneficial for human health and have a positive impact on gene expression. Not only do OPCs give vitamin C more activity in the body, but they have also been studied to help reduce chemo and radiation-induced toxicity and cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases.
