Day/Night Cleansing Cycle with Minerals/Electrolytes -

Sodium/Potassium and Calcium/Magnesium

There is a strong theoretical basis to my work. I read conventional material but I extrapolate from it and reach different conclusions from mainstream medical (and often from alternative) thinking.

We need to be aware of how we are preparing the body for healing to be able to take place. I see the very core of this healing in terms of sodium/potassium and calcium/magnesium balances. The related day/night cleansing cycle is one of the pillars of my healing philosophy. Our polarity gives us life - it is an electrical charge, an electrical current. You can take this polarity right down to its expression at cellular level. Minerals have different charges and the polarity is a function of the interaction between the four electrolytes: sodium and potassium (male and female) and between calcium (male charge, like sodium) and magnesium (female charge, like potassium).

All doctors know this, they learn it in their training, but they subsequently ignore it. I believe it is crucial. When doctors do tests, it is usually on the blood. But the blood status is not indicative of the cell state (i.e. the tissues) since the blood maintains its own integrity. You can have serious bone problems, but the blood calcium looks fine, for instance.

So, how do these pairs of minerals interact? If you refer to the functioning of the 4 minerals, Na/K (sodium/ potassium) and Ca/Mg (calcium/ magnesium) on the top part of Diagram 1, you can see that the natural position for Sodium (male), Calcium (male) and fats is outside the cell. Iridologists know, by the Sodium/Calcium/cholesterol ring in the eye, that these 3 travel round the body together. They have a natural position outside the cell and whilst inside the body they move together (there is also a little Calcium inside the mitochondria in the cell). In the daytime, when the body is upright, the Sodium, Calcium and fats are moving towards the cell and going inside it.

All cells have a membrane (outer wall) made of lipids (fats). Whilst the body is on dehydration alert it will seek to do something to help itself. It produces cholesterol, which is mixed with the fats (mostly the damaged fats you have eaten such as margarine, fried oils, in junk foods). The body protectively coats the cell membrane with these mixed fats and cholesterol: as these 3 (fats, Sodium and Calcium) move towards the cell, they coat the membrane and they enter the cell. In this way the cell, during the sunlight hours, naturally becomes quite toxic. You feel tired; through the day you gradually, and naturally, reach that point where you want to go and lie down. You feel the need to rest.

The moon rises, you go to bed and lie prone. The other 2 minerals, the Magnesium  (female) and Potassium (female), now begin to act (please refer to the bottom part of Diagram 1). The Magnesium works with the Potassium, pushing it, and the two of them enter the cell and displace the 3 that have entered during the daytime, the Calcium, Sodium and fats. The daytime movement of Sodium and Calcium into the cell will happen whatever else we do. This second movement, which happens during the night, is what sometimes fails to occur.

The moon-pull is much gentler than the sun-push: only if conditions are right within the body can the moon pull the sodium back across the cell membrane, thus making way for the Magnesium to exert a gentle push with the potassium, so that they go back to their rightful position, which is inside the cell. This is why it helps to note your energy state upon awaking in the morning, because feeling like you 'have never been to bed' is what we regularly hear in cases of CFS/ME and similar low-energy 'diseases'.

Looking at the typical diet in all western countries, the excess of calcium and sodium is very obvious. And most of it goes inside the cells during the natural daytime cycle and can only come out if the night time part of the cycle is able to happen. But we have to consider the functions of Magnesium and Potassium (the night time minerals) very carefully when we are examining the healing process, especially Magnesium.

We may or may not be eating enough Magnesium in our daily diets; it is also deficient in the soils as we well know. But the big problem is around whether or not we can use it since chronic illnesses involve difficulties around the ability to digest, absorb and assimilate (see "Vitamins, minerals (misplaced calcium) and supplements generally" and "Misuse of fats and breakdowns in pathways (&B6)").

As soon as the body starts to put the cholesterol around the membrane of the cell (remembering that the body on dehydration alert produces the cholesterol) that cell starts to get "locked off and dark" and thus becomes partly out of communication with the surrounding cells and with the body as a whole. The daytime entry of the Magnesium, Calcium and fats into the cell happens anyway. The active/sensitive part of this process is the night-time part. So minerals and nutrients may be going in during the daytime but not completely coming out (at night) as they should. Whatever the residue that stays in the cell, it will equate to that percentage of the cell which is out of communication (refer to Diagram 2).

Now think of this on a mental/emotional level as well. I believe that my body is a manifestation of my soul. To have direct, complete communication with the physical body, all cells would need to be opened up. When the communication is blocked, that is about not doing what I should be with my life. This equates with the proportion of impairment of the immune system. A person could have 33% cut-off with the cells, reflected by a 33% impairment of the immune system. People are only going to be functioning from the part of themselves that they are in touch with.
