Negative ions attach to pollutants and allergens with a positive charge; they even remove bacteria and viruses from the air.

In nature, the best sources of negative ions are areas where water molecules crash and gain their negative charge by losing electrons; this includes waterfalls, rivers, and areas where water evaporates, like forests and beaches, and also during thunderstorms and rain. If you have ever noticed that feeling of freshness in the air after the storm, it is because of negative ions.

But spending hours in nature, traveling to visit the biggest waterfalls, dancing in the rain, or surrounding ourselves with dozens of green plants for each room is not an option for everyone, even though it sounds like an ideal scenario. Spencer Feldman has a solution for everyone!

Podcast 387: Grounding, Negative Ions, and Electrons – Part2:

Martin: Hi everybody, this is Martin Pytela for the Life Enthusiast online radio network! With me today is Spencer Feldman, the founder and chief technologist at Remedy Link. And today we are very excited to introduce to you the electron replacement or electron charging device. Well, maybe Spencer will tell us the official name of it. Spencer Feldman, welcome!

Spencer: Hey, Martin, thanks for having me! So you know I’ve been involved in this idea about electrons for a while. A couple of years ago I read a book on grounding, that’s the idea of walking barefoot, or putting a pad under your bed or where you work that’s attached to the Earth to get electrons from the Earth. And I’m reading this book and it seems amazing. And then I start grounding and I don’t really notice anything, so I’m trying to figure out what it is. So I’m doing this research on electrons. They come off the sun, they travel on the solar wind to the Earth, which is kind of like a giant battery. And we are meant to absorb electrons through the air, through the water, through our food, and through our feet, our skin. One of the things that electrons do is detoxify.

Nowadays the electrons in the atmosphere are 20% more positive than negative because all of the electrons are being used up, not all of them, but a large number of electrons are being used up to detoxify the atmosphere – the pollution, chemtrails, all that. So with every breath, rather than getting a charge of electrons, we’re actually losing electrons. We are meant to get them through our water, water that would normally come from mountain streams and waterfalls is fully charged, and you drink it up. But our water now goes through pipes, it is reclaimed from sewage and is treated with flocculants. These flocculants strip the electrons off the water to make the water glue itself up so it can be filtered out better. But then we end up drinking those flocculants, so we are getting a positive charge from our water and our air.

Now food, we cook our food and there’s nothing wrong with that. Cooking kills bacteria and parasites, makes it more absorbable, but it also knocks all the electrons off the food. So our food is striping us of electrons as well. And then our skin: the main way we are supposed to get electrons is from the Earth through our bare feet. Our meridians are actually an electron irrigation system to transfer electrons to the internal organs. If you take any two materials and rub them together, one will typically take electrons from the other, it’s called the piezo-electric effect. And human skin will give electrons to anything. Now you might say, “well that’s terrible, why are we designed that way?” Well, we are designed to flow, but one of the side effects of flowing is that we give electron...

Podcast 386: Grounding, Negative Ions, and Electrons – Part 1:

Martin: Hi everybody! This is Martin Pytela for the Life Enthusiast online network, on TV and radio! With me today is Spencer Feldman, the founder and chief technologist at Remedy Link. But today we are not talking so much about chemical, medical, plant-based tools, instead, let’s get into the world of electrons. I don’t dare to call it electromedicine, which you probably shouldn’t be… Hey, Spencer, what do you want to say about this?

Spencer: Hi Martin! So have you ever heard of grounding or earthing?

Martin: I certainly have and I practice it. And of course, grounding is the universal source of electrons for us human beings. Electrons are the source of the electric charge, the lack of which causes acidity and the abundance of which causes alkalinity, or at least balance. You want to say something about that, right?

Spencer: So, electrons come from the sun through the solar wind, they hit our atmosphere, lightning takes them down to the Earth, and then they are in the ground. And we are designed to absorb electricity from the Earth, from our food, and from the air. The recent renaissance in grounding or earthing, which for viewers who don’t know what that is, it is basically running a metal wire or cable from the ground to wherever you’re working or sleeping so that you are getting the equivalent as if you were barefoot on the ground. Well, I started doing this type of grounding a couple of years ago and it was very interesting, you know, it provides a sense of calm. I can’t say I noticed anything physically, but it was nice. And then I came across a bit of information. It said that the voltage drops a hundred volts for every foot you are above the ground.

Now, I was raised in New York City on the 8th floor, each floor was 10 feet high, so 8 floors means 80 feet above the ground. 80 feet x 100 volts, which meant I was living at 8,000 volts positive. Electrons were being pulled out of me with 8,000 volts of force. I also know that if you walk across a carpet, it can create a spark when you touch a doorknob that’s at least 7,000 volts positive, which I could do where I was living. So I was raised at around 15,000 volts positive. That meant all the time I was up in that apartment walking on the carpet, electrons were being pulled out of my body with a force of 15,000 volts, minimum.

Martin: Yeah, it was discharging, stealing the power. I just want to make that point really clear. Chemically speaking, an electron taken away is oxidation, and an electron donated is reduction or antioxidation. And it also has to do with pH. Acidity is an electron taken away. Alkalinity is an electron given. So what you’re talking about there is that you are constantly donating electrons to the space around you,

Amazing Soak is a formula of oxygen-mineral chelates stabilized in solution. The minerals are the 4 major electrolytes our body needs: Sodium, potassium, magnesium and chloride, and they are chelated to oxygen molecules that are identical to the oxygen metabolites that support the oxidant/antioxidant equilibrium in the body. For this reason, the product has a high biological affinity to our immune system.

Podcast 385: Oxygenate Your Body with Amazing Soak

Martin: Hi, this is Martin Pytela, health coach at Life Enthusiast, coming to you over the internet, and the radio, and wherever you may be listening to this podcast. And I hope you are watching it! Today with me I have Emma Flanagan. She comes to us with an amazing product, Amazing Soak. Emma is a sanitation engineer. She studied in Europe. She actually comes to us from the Dominican Republic, she is an amazing woman, and the Amazing Soak is wonderful. My wife and I have used it, and we find it invigorating. And you will hear stories that will make you wonder why the world has not discovered this yet. Emma Flanagan, welcome to Life Enthusiast!

Emma: Hi Martin. How are you? Thank you for having me here.

Martin: Oh yeah, I’m excited to have met you, and to be introduced to you, and to be able to talk about what Amazing Soak is all about. So what do you know about water and oxygen?

Emma: (laughing) quite a lot! And I’m going to pick on something you just said, that you wonder why it had not been discovered before. It just came by serendipity, just one thing led to the other. And with a brain trained for engineering, we use science to look for solutions. If I had been in the medical field, I wouldn’t have discovered this. I started working with this product because of it’s hyperoxygenation, and some organisms don’t have a high tolerance for oxygen. Most of the pathogens don’t have a high tolerance for oxygen. So they die, and that’s how I came to work with the product. And one thing led to the other, and I’m thinking, well, maybe it can oxygenate the blood and re-use the lactic acid. And I tried it, and it worked, and it’s just very effective for oxygenation. And I use it transdermally.

Martin: So, what you are saying really is that your first idea was: I’m going to exercise, and I’m going to be less tired, right? And then I’m going to recover faster from the overexercise.

Emma: Yes, yes. Because I was so out of shape, and I knew that when you have more muscles, you are able to oxygenate better. And I said, okay, well if I compensate with that and bring the oxygen somehow into the blood, then it would be like I had more muscles, and it worked.

Martin: So, anybody who’s into overexercising, or athletics, or those people who would like to get fit fast but don’t like to hurt afterward, this would be good for them, right?

Emma: Absolutely, it works for me, it has worked for others, and even if you are in very good shape, it will help people take the stress out of training. You will replenish that oxygen faster.

Martin: But this must also mean that if there is an older person, who is just barely able to move, they would actually be able to move much better.

Emma: Yes, yes. And that has been the case. I don’t want to say it this way, but it can be like a liquid exercise in a bottle. You will get the benefits, like liquid yoga in the bottle, because yoga, if you think about it, what it helps you with is improving your oxygenation, and then it moves your toxins out. So this product can deliver similar benefits, but you are soaking in it.

Martin: Right. You mentioned the magical word transdermally. This is delivered in a bath, right?

Emma: Yes. You only need a wet surface in contact with the skin, and that creates the bridge that gets the oxygen to penetrate the dermal layer and get into your systemic distributi...

Maca root (Lepidium Meyenii) grows high in the Andes of Peru, as high as 11,000 feet above sea level. It is one of the oldest and most resilient plants on the planet. It grows in places where no other plants survive, because of extreme climatic conditions in high altitudes. For centuries, Maca was a regular part of the Peruvian diet, believed to bring strength, resilience, stamina, and immunity.

Today, Martin interviews Jorge Ureña, founder of the company UHTCO, producer and manufacturer of the highest quality maca on the market! Learn about different colors of maca root, their benefits and nutritional value, and how UHTCO products are different from the rest of the market. Jorge shares all the fascinating details about their manufacturing processes, and also explains why maca imported from China is not the same quality as the one properly grown in high altitudes of Peru!

Podcast 384 about Maca with Jorge Ureña

Martin: Hello everyone! This is Martin Pytela for Life Enthusiast, coming to you over the internet, radio, the galactic waves! Today we have with us George Urena, or in his original name Jorge Ureña…

Jorge: That is a good Spanish!

Martin: Okay. George comes to us from Canada, but is originally from Peru. I would like to highlight the fact that immigrants are a bonus for this country. They bring with them their culture, enrich us. I’m one of those too, just so that’s “not biased”. But anyway! George, I would like to speak to you about the product that we’re bringing into Life Enthusiast:  Maca. And I know you’re the expert in this. You grew up with it. Can you tell our viewers why they should know about Maca? What’s so wonderful about it?

Jorge: All right, so let’s begin explaining what Maca is. Maca is a root that grows in Peru in about a 14,000 feet altitude. That’s about maybe 4,000 meters above the sea level, it is quite high, and in this particular area where Maca grows, there’s nothing else. Barely you can find any other crop growing like potatoes or Yucca root or maybe corn, there’s nothing like that at this altitude. Maca learned how to grow in this harsh environment for a long time. And at the beginning, I’m talking about probably back in the 1940s, 1950s, the maca root was a wild crop. So something that was just growing in the mountains, it wasn’t really a farming operation, as it is now. Just to mention about the maca root, it wasn’t really a staple food down there. It was just one of the crops that the Incas used to have, here and there. It wasn’t really a staple food people were eating on a regular basis, it was just something that was added to meals.

Martin: So it’s not like a potato you would eat for energy. It’s more like a mushroom that you eat for nutrients or for the adaptogenic function, right?

Jorge: Correct. So when we started the growing operation, obviously we started doing some investigation,  research, and teaching people about it, and they started growing it in different places in Junin. Now, Junin is the actual plateau, it is a region in Peru, where the maca grows, and it just adapted so well in this area that nowadays we have huge extent of land planted with this crop. Now, we realize that maca comes in different colors, and that’s something very unique.

We have black maca, purple maca (or red maca) and we have yellow maca. Now, what’s the main difference between yellow, black, and purple? Yellow Maca being the most common variety, it’s very sweet, it does not offer too much of a benefit, meaning in terms of energy or hormonal balance, it is just a very nutrient dense root, not bad, it’s good, it will give you some energy,
