AROUND THE WORLD
Prior to the 1970’s very little research had been done to determine the pharmacological benefits of Humic and Fulvic Acids. Since then, the United States and other countries including China, India, Russia, and the UK have all conducted numerous research studies and published thousands of papers on the pathology and toxicology of Humic and Fulvic Acids.
Although studying and understanding the health benefits of Humic and Fulvic Acids is still relatively new, inhabitants of remote areas such as the Tibetans of the Tibet region of China, the Georgian Russians living in the Caucasus Mountains of Russia, the Hunzas of Pakistan and Afghanistan (Hindu Kush and Karakoram Mountains), the Sherpas in Nepal, the people of the Kashmir region, and the Indians living in the Kumaon, Himalayas, Vindhyas and Aravallis Mountains of India have been using these rare compounds for centuries to enhance both their physical and mental well-being. Historical records testify to the extraordinary longevity and health of these people.
In ancient Ayurvedic medicine, Humic and Fulvic Acids are known as Shaljit. Many people in the Himalayan belt are known to live well over 100 years in excellent health, free from disease and other health complications, attributing much of their vigor to Humic and Fulvic Acid consumption. In this part of the world, these compounds are listed as a “rasayana” or rejuvenator, a class of drugs believed to dramatically slow the aging process and promote revitalization of otherwise degenerative physiological functions. People of the region using Humic and Fulvic Acid preparations not only report outstanding health benefits for themselves, but also for their animals. Medical studies on Sherpas have linked Humic and Fulvic Acids to their remarkable ability to endure high altitudes and extremely cold temperatures.
The Chinese Material Medica Pharmacological Compendium, which dates back to the 15th century Ming Dynasty, documents the use of Humic and Fulvic Acids in “Wujinsan” to treat ulcerous growth and female hemorrhage diseases by means of an anti-inflammatory and blood coagulating agent.
Russian scientists are using Humic and Fulvic Acids for the treatment of radiation sickness. Victims of radiation sickness experience immune system responses that attack the body’s dead cells, creating unwanted infections. Humates cause the immune system to recognize its own dead cells, thereby reducing infection.
After an extensive study on Humic Acid conducted in Moscow, researchers concluded that pharmaco-biological tests proved Humic Acid was effective in warding off a host of diseases because Humic Acid raised the body’s immunity fighting functions. The study also reinforced other findings that showed Humic Acid was harmless to humans when ingested or applied topically, and did not result in any allergies or adverse reactions.
