natural treatment for liver disease chronic disease

alright! this is john kohler with growingyourgreens.com! today we have another exciting episode for you. i'm here coming at you from my backyardgarden, and it's a beautiful day. i've been working on the garden all day, like cuttingdown tomatoes and getting ready and preparing my beds for the new season that i'll be plantingsome fall crops. and the reason for this episode today is because i'm going to share with youguys a brand new fertilizer product that you guys never heard of before. and this is likethe next generation in fertilizers, which i believe everybody, people that grow producefor their home use but even like, you know, for commercial applications, this is a fertilizerthat they really need to use. it's an organic fertilizer and it's a lot different than anyother. so, you know, that's what this episode

is about.but before we get into that, what i want to talk to you guys about is something that isvery important to me, right. what's really important to me are trace minerals and gettingthem in to my soil and that's why this new fertilizer that's never been shown beforeanywhere is very important. and for that actually i want to reference this senate document.it's from like 1936. it's called modern miracle men, and this is a senate document, you canlook it up, it's actually at senate.gov or whatever. it's document 264. and back in the1930s they knew how important trace minerals were. and i want to read a few things offthis little document here. so, "modern miracle men, dr charles northern, who built healthfrom the ground up,". so it starts off, "do

you know that most of us today are sufferingfrom certain dangers, dietary deficiencies which cannot be remedied until the depletedsoils from which our foods come are brought into proper mineral balance", right. and forthose of you guys that are new viewers of mine, if you haven't seen any of my videosbefore, you know, as you guys know i'm really into the trace minerals. and this whole documentsummarises from back in 1936, that's what, 80 years ago or so, like a long time ago,that we knew about this stuff then. and, you know, i'm not going to read this whole littlebooklet thing for you. but i do want to read, you know, the last section of it for you guys.and it ends off like this, right, to summarise, it says “the public can help. it can hastenthe change. how? by demanding quality in its

food by insisting that doctors and our healthdepartments establish scientific standards of nutritional value that growers will quicklyrespond. they can put back these minerals almost overnight, and by doing so they canactually make money through bigger and better crops. is it simpler to cure sick soils thansick people? which one shall we choose?". i mean this came out in the 1930s and, youknow, nowadays there's a lot of sick people. and, in my opinion, one of the main reasonsfor this is, besides all the processed foods, junk foods and animal foods being eaten inover abundance, and all those foods don't contain the trace minerals. and that's why,as home gardeners, you guys can play a direct role in growing trace mineral rich foods.and for those of you guys that watch me, you

guys know that i advocate things like therock dust and like the sea solids, like the ocean solutions or sea 90, which is basicallyminerals, trace minerals that you can foliar feed or put in to your soil so that your plantscan uptake these minerals. and so one of which is right here. this is actually the cbd rockdust that i like to use at california that's the best salt deposit. so with the rock dustand the sea minerals, right, you're just providing your plants the minerals and what nature wouldprovide naturally, and you hope and pray and you cross your fingers that if all the systemsare working, you got good beneficial microbes and bacteria and all this stuff in your soil,they're going to break down something like the rock dust in to a form that the plantscould absorb, so that they'll have the trace

minerals in them. so that when you eat theplants you can now get them in you. and you could be healthier than the average americanthat's just eating produce out of the store. whether it's conventional or organic, right,it's not a whole lot different. the mainstream agriculture is concerned with3 main minerals- the n p k, that's what's on the fertilizer bags. and that's why i don'trecommend you guys buy, you know, synthetic chemical fertilizers, one of the many reasons,because they only have 3 main minerals and sometimes they have up to 16 to 18 mineralsthat they pay attention to. but on the periodic table of the elements, you know, there's overa 100 different minerals and i believe they all play an important part. and that's whyi like to add the rock dust, right. and so

that's my approach to gardening. and that'swhat i have enriched my soils with 5 different kinds of rock dusts and used different oceansolids to get these trace minerals in. and i just hope that it's all working properlylike it should. and so, you know, and the growth in my garden is a tell-tale soil thatthings grow a lot better in my garden than to other people's gardens in my area growingthe same exact crops. my plants are bigger, more vigorous, more disease resistant, andmore importantly they taste better. because once something tastes better it's usuallybetter for you, right. so we all know that tomatoes from the grocery store tastes likecrap and the one that you grew yourself, oh my god they're amazing!. but what if yourtomato could even taste better? because it's

some of these trace minerals that really playa role in, you know, the plants creating different compounds within it.so as you guys just heard, the way that i'm doing it, i'm just kind of giving it the shotlayer approach and putting everything in there, and hopefully if nature and biology work outi'm going to get more nutritious crops. but it's not guaranteed, you know, that it's goingto work or the uptake is going to be great, or you know, than not. and some videos onlinemaybe even say that rock dust doesn't work because there wasn't any big major uptake.now i have an upcoming episode coming out where i interview a rock dust expert and explainhow rock dust may not work sometimes and how testing may show that it's not working. andthere's ways you could design it or test so

that you could show this. so as much as iwish every farmer and even, you know, corporations that are growing food for people out of therock dust which is really important, i think that something even more important than justkind of like, you know, throwing out the shot and it's getting like a direct shot and beingmore precise with the trace minerals in our food. and that's what i want to share withyou guys today. i'm going to introduce to you guys next actually, the formulator ofa new fertilizer product that you guys never heard of because it's something totally newand different and not available anywhere else only on his website for now. and i met thisgentleman about a month ago at a health trade show, because i'm in to that industry. andthis is probably the biggest thing that i

discovered at that trade show was, you know,growing crops with specific trace minerals that may be beneficial for certain diseaseconditions, you know. because i believe that many disease conditions may be partly dueto a mineral deficiency. so who i want to introduce you guys next tois robert van risseghem, who is the inventor of this new fertilizer that can not quiteguarantee but ensure high levels of uptake of certain trace minerals in to your plants.now robert he's been into gardening and growing food now for maybe the last 6 years. but beforethat, you know, for a large spell of 20 years or so he was in to this stuff. and this ishis book he wrote, it's called "table of the money changers" and this is all like backin the olden days how they would extract precious

metals or minerals from different things suchas animals, for example. because he worked in the industry of basically refining alksand taking waste products from different industries and refining it down and extracting preciousmetals from it , that he could sell for a lot of money. and so, you know, because hewas involved in that industry he really understands minerals, how to absorb certain things andattach certain things and how it could be separated from things using different kindof ways. and due to an unfortunate series of events, you know, he found out that hereally wanted to get out of that industry on just refining precious metals but learnhow to utilise these precious metals and other trace minerals you know for the good of humanhealth. and so actually let's go over and

interview him and ask him why specificallyhe got in to, you know, making a fertilizer product from refining heavy metals and let'slearn more about this unique and new and different and life changing fertilizer product thathe's offering. so now we're here with robert and before weget into talking about the soil solution gtf or glucose tolerance factor soil conditionera.k.a. fertilizer, you know, i really want to get in to, you know, sharing his storywith you guys on how he got in to this because he didn't just start making fertilizers becausehe wanted to. he knew all about the precious metals, the trace minerals and how importantthey were. john: and robert why did you get in to makinga fertilizer from, you know, refining precious

metals because that's probably a pretty lucrativeindustry? robert: when i finished writing the book,the tables of money changers, and i had refined, my father had come down with pancreatic cancer.and during the finishing up of the books and some of the claims that i was making, i wantedto ensure that i wasn't plagiarising anybody's work. and so i bought a few books. i boughtrobert r brooks' book- noble metals and biological systems. where he talks about precious metalsin the environment and marine sludges, how we use them in chemo therapy, how they areused in medicines, just the entire array and i was fascinated by it. but one of the problemsthat was discovered back in the 70s when platinum was first discovered was that it was effectiveon chemotherapy and reduction of tumors and

how it worked. it was all explained in thisbook. i realised that i could take and solve a problem that they had back in the 70s andthat was to put platinum into food. if you look at the world health organisation’sinformation on platinum, there's actually experiments on how they tried hydroponicallyto put platinum into food with the intention of the delivery system of platinum mineralinto our diet for the benefit of reducing or, hopefully preventing or reducing tumorsize. and so from that i was fascinated, i understood i could do that, and with my dad'scancer i was disappointed that i hadn't done it. anyway, after he passed away i starteddoing it and two other people in our family had come down with cancer 5 months later.they've used our product, they used traditional

medicine also. but they're both cancer free.and whether that's from our product or doctor's treatments, who knows. but we were successfulfrom that time of delivering platinum, which is a precious metal, into plants and fromthere we started switching from refining metals to actually putting metals back into dirt.and it was a big change. john: cool, so what he started to do is actuallyhe started to grow foods with minerals in them. so instead of taking like a mineralsupplement that it might say you have, you know, a 100% of your us rda or 500% or a 1000%of your us rda and you take the supplement, you know while it may be in there doesn'tmean your body is going to absorb it all. so he learned, like i have also, that we canabsorb things through plants. and our bodies

will only take up as much as it needs andthe rest will be washed away. i mean a simple example is iron. if you eat an animal basedsource of iron, you know, it's highly absorbable and your body will keep uptaking it. evento the point where it's not good, because iron causes oxidation, it causes oxidativedamage, right. and if you eat iron in plants, in spinach or kale or other leafy greens,our bodies are only going to absorb what it needs and the rest is going to just pass outof us. and so now he has this bio available platinum, which is not any kind of supplement,it's just literally powdered lettuce that's rich in platinum. so, robert, how do you dothis? robert: it's a natural uptake. we take the,i use a bio mask for manufacturing the soils.

our soils are 100% organic in nature. we controleverything that goes into it and when we have a bio mass large enough we then manipulatethe platinum into a bio degradable form and we feed it to the microbes. so, you know,everything, all the platinum numbers that's in that plant are from a green life testingthrough a certified lab. our numbers in lettuce receive a maximum uptake of 2500 to 2600 partsper billion as a maximum. if we enrich the soils larger, that's the maximum lettuce cantake. there are other plants that hyper accumulate to a higher level. we've chosen lettuce asour base for the simple fact that you harvest the entire plant. in certain plants the rootswill take up more, certain plants the stems will have all the food. lettuce is prettyconsistent and it's a great test medium and

it's a good food.john: yeah, i mean i tasted some of this stuff. it tastes kind of like butter lettuce to me.so yes this platinum one, this germanium one, and this ruthenium one. so why did you choosethese specific minerals? robert: these three minerals are associatedin the delivery system of chemotherapy, which in the radioactive form has in themselvescan cause damage to our bodies, even you know hair loss, you know, chemofog from over exposureto radiation and chemotherapy . but the intention of those is to deliver these minerals associatedwith the medicines that i found in robert r brooks' book on chemotherapy, and to deliverthem in the food form. our intention isn't to treat cancer. our intention is to supplementour bodies to prevent cancer. platinum is

found, all of these minerals are found inour food system. i use walmart lettuce as a control sample, and by doing so i'm showingthat i'm not introducing new mineral to our diet but just in a higher amount. walmartlettuce has about 6 parts per billion of platinum. john: and how much is yours?robert: 2500 parts per billion. we have a reason for doing such work and this was tosee the need on how we lose platinum in our diet. robert r brooks' book has one sectionin there on minerals and precious mineral and biological sludges or marine sludges.the highest levels of these precious metals in marine sludges are at the outfalls of ussewage treatment plants. you can actually mine these minerals. one of the tests thati did when i worked as a sewage treatment

plant operator was to do a fire assay on humanwaste. actually recovered a precious metal vein. you know, this goes back to some ofcrazier things that i did with refining and how i realised how our lives are so intertwined.in nature these noble metals are completely part of our system. and they should be partof our diet. but the point is, is the food preservatives. if i were an oncologist andi gave you chemotherapy that uses platinum, the antidote for that is ethyl sulphate. ethylsulphate is an oxidised sulphur compound. all of our, most of our food preservativesexcept citric acid and a few other ones, are sulphur based compounds. these sulphur basedcompounds not only strip platinum, they'll strip gold, silver, copper, molybdenum fromour liver, they will strip lithium out of

our systems. just those minerals, those traceminerals alone affect so much of our aspect of a good quality life and when we're runningdeficient they'll show up as symptoms. and then you're going to the doctor and the doctoris treating the symptoms. so the reality is all those symptoms started from the lack oftrace minerals. and there's enough evidence in so many case studies from naturopaths,i'm not qualified to make those studies but i'm qualified to pick up the book and readit for myself just like anybody else is, that these minerals play an important role in ourhealth. john: wow! so i mean when you guys are eatingprocessed foods with preservatives, it's pulling the, it’s leeching the minerals out of you.i mean you guys got to get off the processed

foods, if you don't do anything else. i mean,we're going to keep going on this, but processed foods i got rid of that 20 years ago in mydiet. and i want to encourage you guys to get rid of that stuff in your diet becausethat's not healthy. i mean you guys know this, right. so watch out for all those preservativesin there. robert: and like i said, we can replenishby eating walmart organic lettuce which is a great lettuce. i'm not saying anything badabout it. but if you're building it up at 6 parts per billion, by the time you get backup to what you need, it could take you 2 years to get up to the saturation that you lostfrom one exposure to a salad bar where they sprayed sodium metabisulphite on the lettuceto keep it from turning brown. it just leaves

our defence systems naked. this is platinumand the oncologist books through all of the research on it, they know that platinum bondsto our dna at a specific link. when they are administering it, and the oncology books areactually testing to ensure that they have the saturation. my belief is these mineralsshould always be part of our dna. without the proper dna building blocks, dna collapses.and it collapses and then shows the symptoms. john: i mean i totally agree. that's why i'mreally big on the trace minerals. and i'm glad that now he could literally get someof these trace minerals in food, in form that you could eat. and so yes, he does have theseavailable. though actually i don't really want to even talk about these products today,we're here to focus on actually the fertilizer

product.now before we get in to that, i want to, you know, go over this. this little book here.and this book actually is actually it's an online reference that i want you guys to checkout. it's doctor duke's phytochemical and enthnobotanical database. and what this does,this goes over different trace minerals. so here's boron, here's copper, molybdenum, potassium.and i want to get to one that's important to me these days is selenium. something thati believe many people may be deficient in. and on the selenium page there's a lot ofresearch here. and this shows some of the different biological activities, you know,that it's anti-oxidant, anti-parkinsonian and anti-tumour and anti you know this andthat, anti-depressant. it says it's a cancer

preventer right here. and it talks about theplants with the highest amounts of selenium. so people know that brazil nuts have usuallythe highest amount of selenium. but this reference also shares how much selenium could be inbrazil nuts and it could be anywhere from, based on what they've tested, three to fourhundred and ninety seven parts per million in there. so imagine if you get that brazilnut and have three and you think you're getting enough of your selenium by eating a coupleof brazil nuts a day, you're not, you know. and so, and oh then the next highest one iscatnip. so i'm actually going to start growing some catnip. that' actually says a hundredand twenty three parts per million, which is the second highest. and then common gardenthyme, you know, is next, it's sixteen parts

per million.so robert, so how did you get in to using dr duke's database and what's the significanceof this information to you? robert: the significance of that is i usethat for a road map. it will identify what the biological benefits in the activity areof these minerals and the compounds that god created these plants to manufacture. but moreimportantly, through using this database i'm allowed to specifically match a soil to specificdirt. and what i bring into the table through doing that is to actually bring a more consistentand precise, like what we talked about with brazil nuts. we could have three parts permillion or we could have, you know, almost five to six hundred parts per million. thedifference with what i bring to the table

is we can precisely have the specific number.so when you’re actually consuming a brazil nut product, and you’re not sure if youneed three or three hundred, based upon that range to get the nutrients and the biologicalactivities that that food presents to you, by having a precise delivery system we narrowthat margin or that range. so we know that when you’re consuming that product you’rewithin that range. and we can do that with just about any mineral that we’re addingto the soil. when i spoke with dr james duke, wonderful man, great research scientist andhas added tremendously to the industry by putting that database on. he was 40 yearswith the us department of agriculture. and the database shows that well we got our money’sworth of that gentleman. but what we didn’t

have and what i spoke to him was i asked himwhat was the soil samples, what was his reference? and his point to me was and his answer was,it was wherever the plant grew. so his database may not have the range that we’re lookingfor either. there might be areas in the world where that brazil nut is even higher. theremight be areas in the world where the brazil nut is even less. so, you know, my point isour soils are everything. by adding trace minerals to our soils we can end up with ameaningful diet that can actually be a supplemental diet, where we can meet our daily recommendedamounts in small enough amounts, so we’re not walking around with this. we’re walkingaround john: with this!(laughter)

robert: there we go. i am not a nutritionalsalesman. but apparently you sell juicers. (laughter)john: so as you guys just heard that, you know, brazil nut product may contain variousamounts of selenium in there. but robert, you know, like if you look at when you pickup a package of brazil nuts at the store; like i just bought some brazil nuts at traderjoe’s, you know, for myself to make sure i get my selenium because it’s a very importantmineral; it says on the back how much percentage you get that’s in there. i mean, is thatlabel truly accurate to what’s in the package or is it or what?robert: there’s no labelling requirements, not requirements, there’s no labelling voluntaryrequirements that good producers are putting

on now. and in fact there’s an associationright now that’s looking at where we can actually scan if a farmer that’s puttinga quality product out there can actually send it in and have the bio available mineralsthat he’s testing for on part of his labels. and hopefully we’ll get to that. when you’rebuying from trader joe’s or you know, your local grocery store, all of them have a barcode on it. if you go to my facebook page you will actually see how to read that barcode for country of origin. brazil nuts actually have higher selenium levels if they’re grownin bolivia. the two areas in the world that have the highest level of selenium bio availablein a plant and that is senegal, africa, which has very minimal aids, very minimal cancer,and bolivia, same thing. and we’ve known

that just like we were talking about earlier,becoming more aware of what we’re lacking in our soils, china where they have the highestlevels of visafa geo cancer. and because china’s people are their commodity, their governmentwas proactive. and to correct the incidences of visafa geo cancer they added molybdenumto their soils. and it had a beneficial effect. these trace minerals and when we’re lookingat commercial farming, there isn’t a beneficial effect unless you have a measurable resultand you can put a value added product and the farmer can get a return on the value addedproduct. so when we’re looking at these minerals and we see a farmer working harderat supplying a good quality product, be sure to reward that farmer and see what other productshe’s actually putting out there. because

he’s doing it for his health, for your benefit,not his well being or his profit line. and because it’s just so easy to consider yourselfa good farmer by your profit line. and your profit line doesn’t necessarily mean you’veput quality food out there to the market. and so growing your ownjohn: yeah robert: like we say is idealjohn: cool. yeah so basically, you know, on a label it’s like they’re using the averages,you know, for the most part. so you don’t really know what’s in there, you know, it’son the average and if you want to trust averages, you know, to ensure you’re getting the differentnutrients you need, you know, i don’t know, i wouldn’t. so yeah and try and become abetter gardener by incorporating some of these

minerals in known amounts in the fertilizerso that my plants will get the uptake, right. it’s very important, instead of like withthe rock dust where you’re hoping that you’re going to get the uptake and you’re goingto have you know, rich high quality fruits and vegetables that you’re growing at home.so robert, if somebody wants to grow a food with high platinum in there, you know, areyou selling a fertilizer now that they can grow a high platinum food?robert: if they want to pay the price. we use 999 (three nines) fine platinum in theproduction of that. it’s not something you’d want to put on the ground. everything is incontrolled green houses, controlled environments. and one of the problems with putting somethingthat expensive, you may be disappointed with

the investment if you don’t have the propercontrols. because these are micronutrients and they do wash out easily. so in our greenhouse we control our ts, we control our replenishment as we’re harvesting, we know exactly howmuch platinum to replenish over the course of one year to do a supplemental additionto our soils and through that. i don’t believe anybody would want to buy that other thanbuy the product. i think it’s a little cheaper to buy the product than what it would be tomake your own soils. john: cool. so how much is , if you don’tmind me asking, how much does the soil that grows this lettuce, like if you had to puta dollar amount on the soil that’s just growing this lettuce, what is it worth?robert: the true value, the platinum levels

that we’re putting in to it is 1 gram ofplatinum for about every pound of top soil. so when we’re up to one yard, our growth,the platinum is actually the cheapest about when we’re up to one yard because the amountof labor and with the research cost and the testing, we’re about $20,000 a yard is whatwe’re looking at in our soils right now. john: wow, and i thought i had some expensivesoil using all the rock dust, you know. i think i’ve put like 10 bags of rock dust,so it’s like $200. then like all this, all these beds on this side of my yard, that’snothing man, that’s like $20,000 to grow this stuff. so you guys can grow, well ifyou’ve got the money you could grow platinum rich produce. but what robert does have availableis this product. and this one’s actually

called the gtf, i mentioned it earlier, theglucose tolerance factor soil conditioner. and this one’s made for a specific purposein mind. and so, you know, it says here those with diabetes may have a deficiency in anyof the following minerals – chromium, vanadium, molybdenum, zinc, sulphur, potassium. thisglucose tolerance formula is designed to replenish these minerals into your vegetable garden.so now instead of taking an isolated supplement that you don’t know the uptake you’regoing to get, you’re going to be able to use this fertilizer to ensure you’re goingto get high values of these trace minerals into the food that you’re growing. and thenconsequently when you eat the food you’re going to get those into you.so robert, why did you decide to put this

gtf soil conditioner together?robert: i put it together because of the need. diabetes is next to cancer. it’s one ofthe most, yeah , take the entire family wealth and just throw it right into insulin. it’sunbelievable that our diet has led us down this road that we can see these diseases fromdeficiencies. truly the glucose tolerance factor we can see a much more measurable resultas we’re using this product. if you’re, you know, most diabetics are keeping trackof their insulin use or their blood sugars every morning. i believe that somebody growingtheir own foods will see a result on that. this product’s that new that i don’t havethose results. but because it’s a group of people with a specific illness which theywere self monitoring, i believe they’ll

be the first ones to tell me whether the productworks or not, whether my whole idea is completely wrong. but i believe this is based on soundprinciples that our certified analysis show that when you’re eating, if you use thisproduct to grow radish, you can get a 177% higher chromium in that radish you’re usingthis product through. you know, we’ve validated that through the product testing. so the differenceis to get to your daily chromium need, from that testing it shows that 4 radishes willgive you the daily recommended amount. where if you, if we didn’t have it you would beeating 20 to 24 radishes to receive that level of chromium. you know, most of the time mostdiabetic supplements have chromium and vanadium in it. we add the molybdenum to it becausethrough some of our research, our liver function

is important for bonding proteins to bothchromium and vanadium. and without those proteins that the liver will bond to those minerals,sugar just doesn’t recognise them in the blood stream and you’re ending up with ahigher blood sugar count. and you know, i’m not a doctor, i’m not a dietician, i’mjust using other people’s data to do that. and the supporting data that i have is onmy facebook page naturally noble, facebook. and you can find exactly where i’m findingthis research. i’m just taking the research, funnelling it from that knowledge base intoa product which makes sense. and making claims, that is impossible. but proving the data,we’ve done that through certified lab. we actually test for 65 different elements plusa precious metal sweeps on all of our analytical.

and they’re certified through certain securityzone exchange certifications. john: cool. so, do you have any testimonialsfrom people using this and growing their own food and any changes in, you know, theirrobert: pretty much, because it’s this new of a product, i don’t have any blood sugartestimonials. i do have, you know, some results from, you know, our lab analytical just forthe uptake of the minerals in the plants. this product has just come out late in thegrowing season, this last spring in 2015, that we’re expecting we’ll see more usesof it as we educate people more on how to use it. it’s actually that new on the market.one of the products that we’re putting together on this here, because there’s a lot of homefarmers that just don’t have a backyard

like this. this is awesome. some of the callsthat i’ve had is to take and see if we can do a wheat grass kit using this product andusing the same technology. before i bring that product to market, we’ll have a completetesting where we’re just the same way that we did with our radish testing and our othergarden testing. we’ll actually be able to control the supplement by providing the soiland everything associated with that growing process. and using your juicers we will beable to measure and have a measurable amount of what these minerals are to be able to tellyou just exactly how much juicing you need to do, how much wheatgrass, to achieve thesedaily doses, our supplemental dose. and that’s, it’s a 100% food. but it’s a measurableresult. and i think that’s what we’ve

been missing by just saying eat this plantor eat this food, we’re actually missing the test data to say did we achieve what we’relooking for in our diet for that specific day. are we running with a deficiency thatwe need to supplement because we don’t have any other choice?john: wow, these are like designer fertilizers, man. so he’s got this book here that’sgot he’s got all the testing in there. and i’ve looked through this and basically hehas the different testing for the different minerals. so, for example, the zinc, in thezinc in our control, our radish, and the radish he used the product on is like over twiceas much. i want to go and just maybe skip to the back here and give you guys a summary.but in the test results here the 177% increase

in uptake of chromium, 62% increase in theuptake of vanadium, 56% increase in the uptake of molybdenum and a 113% increase in the uptakeof zinc, you know, by simply using this. so this was designed for people that want toget these trace minerals and it’s says that those with diabetes may have a trace mineraldeficiency. but me for one, i don’t want to even get diabetes. so that’s why i wantto use something like this product, put it in my soil to make sure i get these traceminerals because if you’re deficient in these minerals, you know, that may be a causefor getting diabetes as well as other situations. i mean, we wonder where this book and in thisbook, you know, they go over each of the different minerals and some of the different problemsthat can occur if you don’t have those minerals

within you. so you know, i would rather besafe than sorry, and that’s why i grow my food, and that’s why i use the rock dustand that’s why i’m going to start using now the gtf, even though i don’t even havethe diabetes. robert do you have any comments on this?robert: you know, it’s one of the first products that we have. we will be doing mixturesof other minerals just for specific, our next product is actually for, to help people thatare fighting depression. you know, the main problems that we have in our diets today,you know, once again going back to the amount of preservatives that we use and the sulphur.but leeching that much lithium and salt out of our bodies, there’s a tremendous needfor putting minerals back into our soils.

and we’re seeing, you know, that these needsare so drastic of a need that we’re seeing massive symptoms, you know. our grandparentshad never heard of bacteria eating away at our own bodies. and that’s, you know, mypersonal belief is it’s the lack of silver that we’re not retaining in our system.as silver is still in our food, to some level, but we’re just losing it. and yes so itisn’t always just the depleted soil, a lot of it is how we’re exposed to differentthings. there’s a different correlation between eating seafoods of mercury and seleniumto combat the mercury that it works very well. that if we eat a food that’s, seafood that’ssaltwater that has a lot of selenium, you can have the same amount of mercury but theselenium detoxifies the mercury. i encourage

people to do internet searches on that. idon’t have that information on my database. but that just shows you how it may not bethat we’re not getting the right nutrients, we’re just lacking because of the othercontaminants in our environment. john: wow. i mean, yeah, trace minerals arereally essential and we can get them all through plants. i also want to encourage you guysto eat a healthy diet. and the healthiest diet, in my opinion, is one that containspredominantly plants. so fruits and vegetables, eat lots of them, and especially the onesthat you grow yourself with the trace minerals, including the gtf. i’m looking forward tousing this in my garden, and looking forward to robert’s new and upcoming products.any last words that you want to share with

my viewers today, robert?robert: just one other, you know, a word of caution on using these databases for selfdiagnosis. they were never designed for self diagnosis. but how i normally look at thesedatabases is if you have two or three of those symptoms of a deficiency, you know. i raninto a gentleman who had a number of copper deficiency symptoms, and it was very apparentthat he had a copper deficiency. so to address things, you know, everybody sits at the sametable in your family. if symptoms, if you’re using these databases to look at possiblesymptoms, then always consult your doctor. but i believe that a doctor isn’t goingto recognise the symptom and call it a symptom that the rest of your family has. so by allmeans be smarter with your health, take control

of your health, don’t self diagnose withthese but use them as guidelines to identify what deficiencies you might need to replenishin your garden or in your diet. the last thing is the positive and negative charges of mineralsare huge. when a plant takes in a mineral, it does two things for you- it brings it ina particle size that’s bio available for you and it also surrounds it with negativecharge enzymes or proteins, get those two mixed up, but it surrounds that and givesthe entire molecule or chemical compound a negative charge. the lining of your stomach,the lining of your small intestine are all positively charged. they draw it right in.we don’t find these with a lot of our supplements that are chemical compounds or minerals thatjust stay in the positive charge form. that’s

why they will expel out of your body withouta proper absorption level. john: wow. yeah, very important, grow yourown food, that’s what after my twenty years of teaching about health, learning about health,that’s why this is where i end up about growing food and growing the highest qualityfood for you and your family. so you guys could, you know, have the highest level ofhealth. and once again, for me this is about preventative right. i don’t want to be diagnosedwith anything down the road, and that’s why i am using these things now. so i havethese trace minerals within me. my body is going to absorb what i need and if i haveexcess, you know, it’s just going to go right through me, and i’m not going to uptakethem, right. and i want that for you guys
