	Hello and welcome again.
	This is Mike Adams, the Health Ranger for naturalnews.com.
	Today I'm joined by Edward Group from globalhealingcenter.com.
	He is one of the best informed people in the country on detox and nutritional support for a healthy body, healthy living.
	I've known him for several years and really have learned to trust his information.
	In fact, Ed, welcome to the studio, by the way.
	Thank you.
	You gave me a magic potion a few years ago.
	Actually, it was a lotion for topical use when I was suffering from some pain, and that thing was incredible.
	It really worked.
	It was the only thing that I'd use in years that actually helped.
	Well, yeah, that was Nutricool, and one of the reasons why I let it develop that is because I was seeing a lot of patients that were suffering from pain, and being toxic with chemicals also contributes to You know, altered pain receptors and, you know, especially with the sedentary lifestyle, people are, you know, living these days and they're in a lot of pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, working on computers.
	So I had so many requests and I wanted something that actually penetrated deep into the muscle tissue.
	I mean, everything else out there was just a topical formula that was barely going to just cover up a little bit of your pain sensitivity.
	And so I spent about three years trying to develop an all-natural Lotion that would soak deep down into the muscles and actually use it in my practice and actually got a medical code developed for it that I could bill for.
	Really?
	That doctors could use to bill for that pain lotion.
	How do you spell it?
	What's it called?
	It's called Nutri-Cool.
	That is something that anybody can use, whether it's arthritis, back pain, strains, professional athletes use it.
	It's an all-natural, non-toxic Yeah, that's the other thing that I love about this.
	You know, the lotions that you might find at a typical grocery store or pharmacy section or a Walmart or something like that, they're all made with the mineral oils, the parabens, the fragrance chemicals.
	You know, I would never put that stuff on my skin.
	I can't even stand to be around it.
	But, you know, your products are clean.
	They don't have any of the synthetic chemicals in them.
	Highly therapeutic.
	You know, they just work and they're not offensive like a lot of the others out there.
	Right.
	We pretty much had to reinvent the wheel because when we started, nobody was using organic ingredients because the cost was too high.
	All the manufacturing facilities out there still did not want to change their protocols of using toxic flow agents and fillers and binders and excipients and all these other things.
	It's been a long journey, but we've been able to Conquer that by, you know, using and developing natural flow agents.
	I mean, one of the things with encapsulated formulas, when we started doing formulas, I didn't want any of that magnesium stearate because it's fat and it clogs up the liver and it never gets out of your system unless you do liver and gallbladder cleanses.
	I had to go through and really convince the manufacturers to try other substances and finally we came down to organic Well, that's interesting.
	A lot of people don't really understand magnesium stearate and why it's used and why it's in there, but it's in like 90% of the encapsulated supplements out there.
	I mean it's shocking.
	And I've been asked about that ingredient quite a lot.
	So that's a great answer.
	DE makes sense and that has a detox effect all by itself as well.
	I know people who eat DE. It's great.
	I mean it's a great anti-parasitical.
	I mean I actually have DE in our parasite product because it works so good.
	It's like they put aluminum in salt to keep it from clumping and everything.
	Well, the same thing.
	When you mix all these different types of fibrous herbs together and all that, they put the magnesium stearate in there, number one, to kind of absorb a little bit of moisture, but more or less, it's more of a flow agent.
	It's kind of like an oil, non-sticky substance that lets all the herbs mix together and go smoothly through the machines.
	It's a lot easier for them to do it that way.
	I mean, you know, they could do it.
	It would take them, let's say, to do 2,000 bottles with magnesium stearate, it might take them a few hours.
	If they were to not use magnesium stearate, it might take them two or three days.
	Because they would have to constantly be stirring and cleaning the machines and everything else.
	I see.
	All the encapsulation machines.
	Well, I'd like to ask you even more about the excipients and binders and fillers, actually, maybe in a future segment, because there's so much...
	Those don't even have to be listed on the labels.
	People don't know that.
	Right.
	I mean, so you could have all kinds of silica in your product.
	Nothing wrong with silica, but you could have a lot of silica in there that's not on the label, so you don't really know what you're getting.
	Lots of binders out there.
	Some, like pharmaceutical glaze, is derived from little insects, you know, bugs.
	Gelatin from USDA slaughterhouses where they hang the skins of cows and scrape it off.
	Ooh, nasty.
	Alright, but let's get away from that stuff.
	Let's get to the good stuff.
	A lot of people have asked me about your product line, especially about your, what I call your star product, Oxy Powder.
	That's a product that I have taken for many years from time to time as needed, so I'm very familiar with it.
	It's a pretty incredible and unique, very innovative approach to internal cleansing.
	Can you tell us what is oxy powder?
	Why is it different from the typical sort of diarrhea-inducing herbs that a lot of people associate with cleansing?
	Some people think the more it hurts, the better cleanse you're getting.
	That's not really true, is it?
	No, it's not.
	I mean, I was trained in a lot of different nutrition and chiropractic and naturopathic medicine, and still, they don't really train you about Too many toxins coming into the body or detoxification.
	It's still, in a way, it's kind of like the medical profession because it's like if someone has a headache, let's just give them white willow bark or let's use this herb for this condition.
	I actually had over 200 supplements in my clinic and we had a degenerative disease and cancer clinic and I was kind of into that same realm where let's prescribe this for this.
	We did a little bit of cleansing here and there, but as I started doing more and more research, I realized the importance Especially when I started going to people's homes, because the true definition of a doctor is a teacher.
	And, you know, back in the early 20s and 30s and 40s, doctors would go to the individual's home and see, your environment is causing you to be sick.
	Let's see what's in your environment.
	Let's evaluate where you sleep.
	Let's evaluate where you spend all your time.
	At work, you follow those patients around for a whole day.
	Let's see what you eat.
	And that's how a doctor would say, okay, well, at work you're exposed to this.
	When I realized that all these toxins that people are exposed to that are causing disease are entering through the intestinal lining, then I realized that most toxins are positively charged.
	We need to find a safe, effective method to start getting rid of the toxins where they come in.
	Right.
	And that's what led to the development, seven years of testing and development for oxy powder to create an O1 molecule that could be Released with a catalyst and O1 would bind to or neutralize the positively charged toxins in the bowel and through an oxidation reduction reaction, eliminate everything and it would be safe, effective to use and you would actually get extra oxygen coming into the body.
	Considering the fact that we've gone from 28% oxygen in the air Last 50 years to down to six or seven percent oxygen in the air.
	What?
	What?
	You didn't know that?
	That radical of a change?
	That radical of a change.
	I'd heard of a little bit of a shift, a couple of percentage points in a century.
	Nothing like what you just said.
	Like three or four years ago, it was nine percent in Pittsburgh.
	When you take all the aluminum that's being sprayed in the air and you take everything else, it's competing for all the oxygen, all the carbon dioxide, all the carbon monoxide.
	Isn't that a case for we need more CO2 so that plants grow faster and produce more oxygen?
	That's the whole irony of the whole global warming thing.
	I mean, it's just completely...
	Opposite of what it should be, yes.
	Yeah, I mean, if we had a higher concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere, plants would grow more rapidly.
	I mean, they grow super fast and produce more oxygen, raise the oxygen level.
	Because most of the atmosphere is actually nitrogen, right?
	Yes.
	It's like 80% nitrogen or something, or more?
	Yes, right now we have anywhere between 80 and about 89% nitrogen that we breathe on a regular basis.
	But you have to remember, You know, breath is everything.
	We take 30,000 breaths a day.
	And right now, what we're breathing is outgassing some paints and, you know, all these chemicals that are in the air and fossil fuels.
	And, you know, our air is completely toxic indoors.
	It's even worse than outdoors.
	Yeah.
	Well, we did our best here in the studio to try to make it non-toxic.
	But even then, you can smell a little bit from the carpet, you know.
	And we off-gas this thing for, like, a couple of months.
	Getting back to oxy powder, by the way, so the ingredients in here, I want to ask you about this, ozonated magnesium oxides, natural citric acid, and another ingredient, but it sounds like those two, the citric acid must be the catalyst?
	Yes, and because You know this, you talk about this, is that most people are deficient in hydrochloric acid in their stomachs, so we include that in there.
	If someone is healthy like yourself, it would work a little bit differently for you and work a little bit faster probably, but the whole purpose of it is We have a whole country and world of constipated people.
	People aren't going to the bathroom two to four times a day like they should.
	They're eating, you know, processed foods, drinking sodas, artificial sweeteners, GMOs, and so they're not getting, their bowels aren't moving properly.
	This is the only thing that you can safely take on a regular basis.
	I don't recommend taking any supplements every day, maybe a good multivitamin or something like that, but I always recommend two to three times a week to just get everything out so it's not sitting in your system 72 hours and the proteins aren't putrefying and carbohydrates fermenting and fats turning rancid.
	This is a way that People can reduce their toxic amount incredibly and actually get beneficial oxygen in their system.
	The herbal cleanses that are out there, cascara sagrada, senna, all that, most of those herbs come from India.
	They haven't been checked for arsenic and everything, concentrations.
	They're probably poisonous.
	And the body and the bowel will deteriorate and can actually have detrimental effects if used for a long period of time.
	Yeah, I'm glad you mentioned that because there are a lot of misconceptions about what is a successful detox and that term is thrown around a lot and sometimes these products like Cascara, Sagrada, that's the correct name for it, right?
	It's really, for most people, just induces a lot of diarrhea.
	It can be used safely in combination with the right formula, but I've seen some cheap formulas that are just an overload of cascara and then people just blow out feces and then they think they're super clean.
	But the fact is they just sort of tortured themselves, gastrointestinal torture.
	They did, and all they did was suck water from an already dehydrated body, because everybody's dehydrated these days.
	They don't drink enough good water.
	All they did was suck the vital, necessary water from their bodies and push it out, which, you know, it might have gotten mixed with a little bit of feces and didn't do any real Good or doesn't really receive any good health benefits.
	I mean, what I tell people is you have 10 feet approximately of colon, but you have 25 feet of small intestine.
	Really, the small intestine, you know, the first five feet from the stomach down is where all that bolus and all those toxins are going to burn through the intestinal lining and everybody focuses colon, colon, large intestine, but really everything's already absorbed and the damage is already done by the time it gets down to the colon.
	That's very true.
	So what you really need to be focusing on is something that cleans the small intestine.
	That's what oxy powder does because it releases the oxygen right from the stomach all the way down and neutralizes those toxins before they actually get to the colon.
	Now, a question I've often had about this, you told me once, but I want to ask you about it again.
	Should this always be taken on an empty stomach?
	I mean, not with food.
	It's best if it's taken on an empty stomach, but we have a lot of people that, you know, especially living in Texas, and they go out to dinners and they have a 32-ounce porterhouse steak, Yeah, welcome to South Texas.
	Two bottles of wine, a cake for dessert, you know, everything else.
	And, you know, when they get, I mean, that could literally sit in your digestive system for four or five days.
	And you can imagine the toxins that will be leaking in, especially when they do that every night.
	So, yes, it's best to take on an empty stomach.
	You're going to get more activity.
	And, you know, for example, we have an overnight cleanse for people who do gorge like that.
	It's best to take it before they go to bed.
	So it'll help, you know, burn through all the toxins and neutralize the toxins in that big meal.
	And the next morning, they'll be able to excrete that meal instead of that meal sitting in their system.
	But we have people call up and say, you know, oh, I took this and it caused diarrhea.
	Well, if you look at the process of oxygen, of monatomic oxygen, which is a reactive oxygen species, through oxidation and reduction, it reduces or turns solid matter into a liquid or a gas.
	That's why some people have bloating, maybe some stomach aches sometimes because of all that gas that's being produced because of an oxygen reaction.
	And so what we tell people is it's not diarrhea.
	You're not going to have an electrolyte deficiency.
	All it is is the process of oxidation reduction taking place within your system.
	Very different from classic flu, bug, diarrhea type of situation.
	Totally different.
	Now, we're almost out of time, but your company is based in Houston.
	Houston, I remember, was once awarded something like the most obese city in America.
	I was in Houston for a while, too.
	There is a lot of rampant obesity in Houston, and the Texas culture loves to go to steakhouses and have massive amounts of barbecue and a lot of cheese, sort of Tex-Mex cuisine.
	I would imagine that Texas, especially, would find a lot of benefit from your Oxypowder.
	One thing about Texas is a lot of hard-headed people here, though, too, and they haven't really branched into the natural, you know, Texas is a medical community, too, so you still have a lot of people that are still stuck in the medical thing, but hopefully, yes, that's the case.
	I mean, in Houston, we have more restaurants per capita than any other city in the United States.
	Is that right?
	That's right.
	That's why it's probably the fattest city, and hopefully we can do something about that.
	But, you know, there's some proposals which you talked about coming out with, you know, dietary supplements.
	I mean, we might get a lot of the dietary supplements ripped off the shelves.
	And, you know, the good thing with Oxypowder is it's actually been through phase one, two, and three clinical trials, FDA-approved clinical trials for IBS and constipation with a 96 and 98 percent complete cure rate after six weeks.
	Really?
	I didn't even know about those trials.
	Yes, the trials were done, and we were actually published in the International Journal, two international journals, medical journals for those studies that came out.
	The toxicity and safety studies that were done, because you have to have toxicity studies, you have to have safety studies, and then you actually have the population studies that are managed by physicians in hospitals and everything like that.
	The safety and toxicity studies that were done on that, they called us from the clinical testing facility and said, we're up to the equivalent of someone taking four bottles in one day with no toxicity and no alterations in safety in any way, shape, or harm.
	Would you like us to continue?
	They said, no, that's okay.
	I don't think you need to continue.
	No one's going to be taking four bottles in one day.
	But that just proves to you that you could go to any drugstore and take a handful of any of the over-the-counter things in that drugstore and probably die.
	That's true.
	Or at least be extremely ill.
	I mean, you can't take a handful of, you know, acetaminophen or something like that.
	You'll have liver failure and you'll die right away.
	Yeah, well, people have tried that.
	Yeah.
	And they're dead.
	They are dead.
	So I guess...
	So it just goes to show you that there's safe alternatives that are using the natural oxygen from what was created to cleanse naturally.
	That's right.
	Out there that people can take and...
	Not have to worry about any side effects and get results.
	Well, it does get results.
	Yeah, your products are well known for that.
	You got a number.
	We're sort of out of time for this segment, so let me just let our viewers know that if you want to learn more about Ed Group's products at GlobalHealingCenter.com is the website where you can learn more.
	And by the way, we don't have any financial relationships here.
	I want to just be very clear about that.
	You're not like paying me under the table or anything here.
	I just have Ed on because he knows what he's talking about.
	I've been using your products for like five, six years now.
	I love your products.
	I love Ed's information.
