Benefits Of Shungite

The benefits of Shungite are impressive! In recent years, the stone has grown in popularity as its beneficial properties have made it world famous.
Many people have heard of Shungite, but they’re not really sure what it does and how it does it.

While some of the information on Shungite can be a bit geeky in the science department, we’re going to break down Shungite’s benefits in a way that is easy to understand.

In this article, we’re going to focus on the three main benefits of Shungite – EMF protection, water purification, and grounding.

Protection from Electromagnetic Pollution

Shungite is most famous for its EMF protection properties. People are desperately trying to find a way to continue to use the technology they are now dependent on, but keep themselves protected from EMF Pollution while doing so!

Fortunately, Shungite has the ability to absorb and neutralize all types of electromagnetic frequencies. Whether it is wired EMFs from regular appliances that plug into a wall or use a battery, wireless radiation from WiFi and cell phones, or 5G radiation – Shungite’s unique composition transmutes these frequencies into beneficial resonances.

Another way to say this, is the stone harmonizes or neutralizes EMFs.

This unique property is attributed to Shungite’s concentration of fullerenes. Fullerenes are hollow-bodied molecules of carbon whose hollow chamber allows them to pull frequencies is, alter them, and then rebroadcast them out.

Here’s where it can get geeky...

Fullerenes are nanostructure. This means they’re really, really small. (To give you an idea of the nanoscale, a strand of DNA measures 2.5 nanometers.) C 60 and C 70 are two of the most well-known fullerenes and the most studied. Shungite contains both of these types of fullerenes in greater concentrations than found anywhere else in the natural world.

Natural fullerenes are not commonly found, so most fullerenes are made in laboratories synthetically. These synthetic fullerenes do not possess the same benefits as their natural counterparts. With Shungite, you receive the real thing – natural fullerenes with all of their benefits. Shungite is the only known natural substance to contain such a high concentration of fullerenes.

Tip: While we’re on the topic of fullerenes, be cautious when looking into C60 supplements, as many contain C60 that is synthetic. The only natural sources of C60 are Shungite and properly produced of Activated Charcoal.

As one study performed on Shungite in its native Russia concluded:

“The absorption mechanism of electromagnetic radiation is based on the excitation of eddy currents in a conductor and their scattering in a dielectric. Therefore, Shungite stone can block electric and magnetic fields because it is a natural combined composite: carbon conductor and quartz dielectric.”

Basically, this study concluded that Shungite is both a dielectric resonator and a carbon conductor. The dielectric resonator aspect of Shungite gives it the ability to absorb electromagnetic frequencies. The carbon conductor is how the frequencies get transmuted.

Water Purification

Clean and properly structured water is the backbone of health. Carbon filters are great when it comes to purifying water, but Shungite as a filter is even better! Shungite has been shown to both purify and disinfect water. It has also been shown to mineralize and structure water.

The stone has been found to remove free radicals from water formed after having been chlorinated 30 times faster than activated carbon. It adsorbs organic substances like microbes and pathogens, as well as synthetic substances like drug residues and chemicals.

Shungite purifies water from pathogenic bacteria, fungi and viruses. It also has been shown to adsorb heavy metals from water. The stone neutralizes chlorine in water and studies show it purifies water from radionuclides, which are radioactive.

Grounding

Grounding is not a new concept. Different ways of grounding the body have been around for thousands of years. Different cultures used different ways to align the energy of the body with that of the earth, as they noticed it helped the body to heal faster and it maintained health. Traditional Chinese Medicine focuses on the importance of grounding for health. Many indigenous cultures practiced different rituals involving the earth all designed to help ground the body.

The body is electric and the earth itself gives off a weak magnetic field. Both the earth and the body have resonance. Shungite acts as a calibrator and syncs up the resonance of the body with that of the earth. It’s power to ground the body surpasses any other gemstone or crystal. For those who work with energy, Shungite dramatically increases the energy of the pelvic floor.

With Shungite, you don’t need to walk barefoot to experience the benefit of grounding. Wearing or carrying Shungite, and placing Shungite in your home, will help keep your energy in sync with the earth’s.

The benefits of grounding have been studied and published. A 2014 study out of the University of Irvine in California and published in the Journal of Inflammation Research found the act of grounding was able to reduce inflammation and pain while boosting immunity and wound healing.
