Recommended Reading: Shungite: Protection, Healing, and Detoxification by Regina Martino 

Regina Martino's book, delves into the fascinating science and history surrounding this enigmatic mineral. Drawing on numerous double-blind scientific studies and medical research, Martino unveils shungite's diverse arsenal of benefits:

EMF and Radiation Shield: In our tech-saturated world, electromagnetic fields (EMFs) and radiation from computers, phones, and Wi-Fi are omnipresent. Shungite, according to research, acts as a natural barrier, potentially counteracting the harmful effects of these invisible waves.

Natural Detoxifier: Feeling sluggish or overwhelmed by environmental toxins? Shungite's unique composition, including fullerenes (powerful carbon molecules), is believed to purify and revitalize the body, aiding in detoxification and promoting overall well-being.

Antioxidant Powerhouse: Free radicals wreak havoc on our cells, accelerating aging and contributing to various health issues. Shungite's potent antioxidant properties help combat these damaging molecules, protecting your body from oxidative stress.

Immune System Booster: Feeling under the weather? Shungite might be your ally! Research suggests it can stimulate the immune system, potentially enhancing your body's natural defenses against illness.

Pain Relief and Inflammation Reduction: Aching joints or irritated skin? Shungite's potential anti-inflammatory properties may offer natural relief from discomfort, promoting healing and soothing irritated tissues.

Water Purification and Revitalization: Beyond your body, shungite can benefit your environment too! Its unique properties are believed to purify water, removing impurities and revitalizing its taste and energy.

Martino's book doesn't just tout the benefits; it delves into the scientific reasoning behind each claim, citing research and studies to support her assertions.

But shungite's magic extends beyond the physical. Martino explores its energetic properties, suggesting it can facilitate harmony within the body's energy centers (chakras) and even connect us to higher energies beyond the physical realm.

 >>> RESEARCH PAPERS >>>

* This study investigates the impact of electromagnetic fields (EMF) generated by electric vehicles on heart rate variability (HRV) and saliva cortisol, and whether a protective device made of shungite can counter stress responses.

When participants were exposed to EMF while using a protective device made of shungite, their HRV increased and their cortisol decreased, indicating a reduction in stress.

The study concludes that EMF produced by electric vehicles cause autonomic stress responses on a neurocardiac and neuroendocrine level. However, these responses can be nullified by a special form of shungite (EssenceX). Recharging the battery: Shungite nullifies physiological stress produced by electric vehicles

* This paper investigates a new method for defluorination of drinking water using galvanocoagulation with aluminum and shungite as half-cells of the galvanic couple. The researchers found that the fluoride ions were removed most completely at an aluminum:shungite ratio of 1:1.5 and that the process was significantly dependent on the initial pH value. Using Shungite in Water Defluoridation by Galvanocoagulation


* This paper investigates the reflective and absorbing properties of shielding materials made from natural graphene-containing shungite. The authors found that flexible shungite plates with a thickness of 10-20 μm showed good reflection and absorption, similar to a thicker 2-3 mm synthetic polymer/carbon based composites. Electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of lightweight and flexible ultrathin shungite plates

* This study found that noble elite shungite (EShE) has electrochemical properties that are nearly identical to those of a standard glassy carbon electrode (GCE), while black raw shungite (BShE) has markedly worse electrochemical properties. This is likely due to the higher carbon content of EShE and the presence of poorly conductive impurities in BShE.

* The researchers also tested the use of EShE electrodes in three different electroanalytical applications and found that they performed well. This suggests that EShE could be a cheap alternative to commercially marketed electrodes.

* This study investigated the antioxidant, cytotoxic, and adsorption properties of Karelian Shungite. The researchers found that Shungite has antioxidant activity, but it is approximately 1000 times less pronounced than that of quercetin. Shungite was also found to be cytotoxic to cancer cells. The authors suggest that Shungite could be used as an alternative to activated carbon in water purification and in the production of fullerenes and other carbon nanoclusters. A Study of the Antioxidant, Cytotoxic Activity and Adsorption Properties of Karelian Shungite by Physicochemical Methods

* The abstract describes a study that investigated the effects of shungite on UVB-induced skin damage in hairless mice. The researchers found that shungite significantly improved skin parameters, reduced the proinflammatory response, and counterbalanced ROS/RNS and superoxide levels. They also confirmed the involvement of Nrf2- and MAPK-mediated oxidative stress pathways in the antioxidant mechanism of shungite.

Overall, the study provides strong evidence that shungite has the potential to protect the skin from UVB-induced damage. Shungite, a natural source of fullerene, has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects against UVB-induced skin damage in hairless mice.

* Robert F. Curl Jr., Sir Harold W. Kroto, and Richard E. Smalley shared the 1996 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for their discovery of fullerenes present in Shungite https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/chemistry/1996/press-release/

* The study examines the composition and structural properties of shungite, a natural mineral with fullerene content. Scanning electron microscopy is used to obtain data on its nanostructure, while its physical and chemical properties are also investigated. The study shows that shungite is a promising absorbent for various industries due to its high absorption, catalytic, and bactericidal activity, particularly in water treatment and purification. The structure and composition of natural carbonaceous fullerene containing mineral shungite

* Shungite, a natural source of fullerene, has been shown to have remarkable antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties against UVB-induced skin damage in a recent study. This amazing mineral improved skin parameters, reduced inflammation, and counterbalanced ROS/RNS and superoxide levels in serum and skin lysates. It's a natural, effective, and scientifically-proven way to protect your skin and support your overall health and wellbeing. Antioxidant and Anti-Inflammatory Effects of Shungite against Ultraviolet B Irradiation-Induced Skin Damage in Hairless Mice

* Shungite is a mineral that is effective in absorbing microwave energy. A study found that increasing the concentration of shungite in building mixtures resulted in an increase in absorption up to 24 dB/cm. The optimal ratio of shungite to binder is 50-60 percent, at a frequency range of 3-12 GHz. This suggests that shungite can be used as a filler or binder in building mixtures to create protective coatings against electromagnetic energy. RUSSIAN JOURNAL OF BUILDING CONSTRUCTION AND ARCHITECTURE

* This study found that shungite, a mineral with absorption, catalytic, antioxidant, regenerating, and antibacterial properties, has significant antioxidant activity and can reduce oxidized components while binding to free radicals. This suggests that shungite could be used as an alternative to activated carbon in water purification.Study of the Antioxidant, Cytotoxic Activity and Adsorption Properties of Karelian Shungite by Physicochemical Methods

* This study analyzed the properties of shungite and zeolite minerals using various methods such as transmission electron microscopy and IR-spectroscopy. The study found that shungite possesses restructuring properties and hydrogen bonding energy similar to zeolite, indicating potential uses in industries such as water treatment and purification due to its absorption, catalytic, and bactericidal properties. Research of Influence of Shungite on Mountain Waterfrom Bulgaria.Mathematical Models of Water Influenced from Shungite and Zeolite

* A study found that flexible shungite plates with a thickness of 10-20 μm had similar shielding performance to thicker synthetic polymer/carbon composites due to its conductive carbon matrix and micro-sized dielectric mineral inclusions. This suggests that shungite could be a promising raw material for manufacturing lightweight and corrosion-resistant shielding materials. Electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of lightweight and flexible ultrathin shungite plates

Arrive quickly. I like the look of it and hope its doing its job

Faraday Fabric.

With this fabric I have the opportunity to create a diversity of things to protect myself and my family. The delivery was impressively fast. Highly recommend.

Sleeping much better

I bought the grounding mat. I found using the grounding through the power socket didn't work that well. Although I tested it with the tester and it seemed ok I think the power cycled during the night or something as i woke up stressing. After a while it cooled back down. Obviously our earthing could use some work. But the earthing rod is FABULOUS. I sleep happily all night. It's great. Thank you

Great quality, it works!

After discovering hydrogen water, I decided to give it a try. I use it daily in the morning, and I've noticed a significant increase in my energy levels. The device is simple to use and maintain. I am a big fan of this product and highly recommend it to others.

Excellent service and product

First sleep was encouraging with much less waking. Looking forward to more sleeps on it.

Great deal to spread around family and friends for their phones and IPads
Thanks Grounded Kiwi

Shungite Pendant

Lovely pendant, wear everyday, haven't really noticed any changes in energy etc, but do love the Pendant as a Pendant.

Thank you Lynn for the review :)

Wow!!! This truly reduces immflamation

I purchased a cotton pillow case to try. Wow! After testing it out I can say it's helped reduce my jaw clenching/pain and complemented my chiropractic treatments. I recently caught a virus which gave me bad SI area joint pain, I put the pillowcase under my hips to see and it lessened the pain. Wow! Very happy and I will be trying more products. I also have chemical sensitivities and this pillowcase is fine for me to sleep on.

What a great review Lynda. Thank you so mcuh. It is so great to haer hoe much the healing power of the earth has been for you. - Happy Earthing - Blake

Quilted mat

We have had the large quilted mat on or bed for 2 weeks now. My husband has been sleeping so much better. I haven't noticed improvement in sleep but definitely having some unusual dreams every night. Hopefully I will see improvement in sleep for myself soon as I'm still waking every couple of hours.

Sleep is the most important part of the day! Thank you so much for sharing your experience of sleeping reconnected to the earth :)
- Blake

Finally connected

I have it where I stand in the kitchen, it definitely Makes me feel happier

So cool!! Love the review. Happeness is important :)

Have held off placing feedback…

Until we had been sleeping on it for a few weeks.
Husband had a bit of a reaction the first night, tummy cramps and didn’t sleep very well.
May be related or not - but also may be his body adjusting. He doesn’t get many opportunities to ground prior to getting this, and especially in winter.
Since then he’s been sleeping more solidly though.

As for me? Have definitely noticed improvement in my sleeping, I mostly fall asleep quicker (previously can take me hours to get to sleep).
Also have a more solid sleep, feel rested in the am and feel like getting up!
Swelling in my lower legs has greatly reduced, so very happy about that.

Hey Nicky, thank you very much for the detailed review. This means alot because I know our community loves to reaqd of other experiences and with Earthing, for many they notice improvements in sleep and health from day one but for others is can be as much as 40 nights before we hear back their success stories. The most important thing is to keep the connection going and allow your body to adjust electrically. Glad to hear the grounding is helping you so much now :)
