Robert Bob Barefoot Calcium Factor
interview.
Robert "Bob" Barefoot Calcium Factor
interview.
Hello, I'm Lee
Davis. We have a very special guest. His name is Robert R. "Bob"
Barefoot. He's a scientist and he has done a great deal of research on
the effects of calcium on the human body and is an expert especially on
Coral Calcium and why it's so important.
I was first
exposed to Coral Calcium just three weeks ago when a friend told me some
amazing stories about people who had been seriously ill becoming
completely well just by drinking water with Coral Calcium in it.
Naturally, I was skeptical, but I decided to do some investigating of my
own. Folks, my friend was right. People are experiencing miracles just
by drinking the Coral Calcium. But what I discovered was not based on
mysticism but as a purely scientific explanation, and I've come to
believe that everyone needs to know about this incredible phenomenon of
nature.
In order to understand why Coral Calcium works, we
need to first understand why calcium is the big player in our quest for
health. Mr. Robert Barefoot, as I said, is an expert in the field of
calcium. He's also the author of two books, The Calcium
Factor and Death
by Diet. Mr. Barefoot, since we first had you on the program, I've
read your books and I've become even more excited about what Coral
Calcium can mean to our listeners. First off, can you explain to me why
calcium is so important and why it's called "The King of the
Bioelements?"
Well, calcium is the most predominant mineral in
your body by far, more than twice as much as the next mineral, and
therefore, biologically it literally has hundreds and hundreds of
functions. We can't live without calcium. As we get on in life, we stop
consuming calcium products, and by the age of 35, you'll find that we
have more calcium going out than going in, and we're in trouble because
all these calcium biological functions can't work
properly. However, the body has a defense mechanism. We store
calcium, and the first storage is the bones. So if you don't have enough
calcium, you go to the bones and get it, go to the cells and get it, and
the result of depleting the calcium storage is disease.
I
would like to point out that there's over 200 degenerative diseases
thought to be linked to calcium deficiency, and it's rather
interesting that the April, 1996 issue of Reader's Digest, "Calcium: The
Magic Mineral" article even went so far as to tell people that had
kidney stones, which have calcium, and gallstones, which have calcium,
that the correct procedure is to consume MORE calcium, because they're
caused by calcium deficiency. This is diametrically opposed to medical
advice today.
I noticed that you also have referred to calcium as
the "glue" that holds everything together.
Well, basically,
it is. It's the biological glue that holds the body together. It's
actually intertwined in everything in the body. When you stop and think about relatively at least 200
diseases that have been thought to be linked to a calcium deficient body,
then I guess the next question that I have to ask is, if I don't have
enough calcium and I've got my system running all over my body trying to
find calcium and draw it to places that it's needed, how do I replenish
it? What do I do to get it back? The body doesn't make anymore, is that
correct?
You deplete calcium. When calcium goes out,
calcium has to come in. The bottom line is, is that you need an external
source. Of course, there's lots of places to get it. You can drink a
gallon to two gallons of milk a day, but of course most people, as you
grow older, won't do that. Or, you have another choice. You can have spinach,
or broccoli. That'll do it every
day. Of course, not all people will do that. I had cabbage for supper
tonight, but I don't think I could eat that everyday.
Well, you
need to eat a lot of it to get the appropriate amount
of calcium. So you see, you can't really get what you want just simply
by eating foods. That's why so many of our foods are supplemented with
calcium. But you know, those cultures that actually get huge amounts,
they get it externally, usually from their water as their food source
where there's huge amounts of calcium in the system. We don't have that.
So there are other sources, of course, you've heard of
coral calcium supplements.
Well, supplements do work. So you can take calcium
as a supplement. You go to the store and you can buy calcium tablets,
calcium this and calcium that. Boy, calcium's the hottest thing on
television. Everybody's putting calcium in their
product.
But there's a problem. And that is, we're not all
the same. As we grow older, we become biologically deficient in certain
things. For example, the average man or woman at 60 years old has
one-fifth the hydrochloric acid in their stomach than they did when they
were 20. What this means, when you put the supplements in your stomach,
they have to be digested and ionized with this acid. Quite often, they
don't have enough acid to do the job and/or if they use the acid for
this, they don't have enough acid left for digestive purposes of
nutrients. So, there are alternatives. You want pre-ionized. Of course,
the best form of pre-ionized calcium in the world is a substance called
Coral Calcium.
I've heard a lot about this, but before I get into
that, there's something else I really need to find out from you. What
relationship does calcium have to other vitamins and
minerals?
Well, a vitamin is sort of like the catalyst for
the mineral. In other words, with a trace amount of a vitamin, it allows
the minerals to be absorbed and to work properly. With calcium, the key
vitamin is Vitamin D. You need approximately 5,000 IU (International
Units) of Vitamin D in your intestine. Otherwise, you just pass 95% of
it through into your excretion. I do have one question about
Recommended Daily Allowances (RDAs). Your nutritional recommendations
exceed the RDAs of not only calcium but other nutrients as well. Is it
possible to get too much?
In our society, we're so
terrified of something that no one has ever been injured or hurt with or
one has ever died from. But because of the drug scene and because those
who are advising us are the pill pushers, they're very nervous about
taking anything. The way I like to tell people is, "Look, it's natural.
Drugs are made by man. Vitamins and minerals are natural.
Really. I
guess as you referred to earlier with calcium being the king of all
vital elements, that calcium is the center by which these things revolve
around and with the proper calcium and Vitamin D, the other vitamins and
minerals work better and absorbed better into the body. Is that
correct?
Absolutely. See, one of calcium's crucial
functions is it actually has the capability of latching onto seven
nutrients and one water. It does this outside the cell. So it other
grabs those vitamins and nutrients and it pulls them into the nutrient
channel into the cell where the cell can consume them. And then the
calcium exits through a little tiny calcium channel and does it again,
and does it again. In other words, it collects nutrients to pull into
the cell. No calcium, no nutrients. So you see how they're all
interlinked, they all work together. How much calcium does the
body actually absorb when the supplements are not in an ionic or
chelated form?
Very little. Less than 5%. I tell people
they about 3,000 mg of calcium, but in reality, they're probably likely
to only absorb a quarter of that. How much does the body absorb
when you DO use a chelated calcium?
Chelated calcium is
far, far more absorbable. That doesn't mean 100%. It might go from 5% to
20% to 30%, something like that. We've been hearing a lot
lately about somewhat of a new find called Coral Calcium. I understand
the Coral Calcium does a much better job of allowing the body to absorb.
Is that correct?
What it is, it's readily bio-available.
What that means is, first off, it's pre-ionized. You do not have to
digest it. It's calcium plus plus ions. You put the little sachet in the
water and it dissolves in the water. It's calcium plus plus. So when you
absorb it, you do not have to use your stomach acid, so that is
especially wonderful for the elderly. But it's not only calcium that
goes in. It's magnesium, chromium, copper, selenium, all the trace
elements you find in the ocean, all ionized.
The thing about Coral Calcium is it has four
microbes. These microbes latch on to these minerals and they whip
through the stomach, they whip through the duodenum, and smack into the
liver, and they do it all within 10 minutes. The normal route is ten
hours. We can prove this simply by taking a blood sample before and,
usually what happens when you're oxygen deficient (most people are
because they lack minerals), without the minerals their body fluids are
acidic and that expels oxygen. When you look at the blood, you'll see
the cells clustering in a big clump. You take the Coral Calcium and then
take a blood sample, 10 minutes later all the cells are spread apart,
full of oxygen.
People will tell you, "Boy, I feel
something. I don't know what it is, but I feel something." They all say
that within a few minutes of consuming it. That's what I mean by readily
bio-available. Nothing else will do that.
If I understand you
correctly, does the ionic Coral Calcium have a 100%
absorption rate?
Well, let's say you take your Tums
and you get your 5% if you're lucky. So out of a Tum, which is a gram,
you get 400 milligrams. And you get 5% of 400 milligrams... Okay, let me
see. I want to make sure that I understand all of these terms correctly.
Calcium is the natural element that our body needs. Period. As the glue
to hold everything together and as the element that makes the other
vitamins and minerals absorbable.
And one more crucial
factor. That is, it is the key to maintain caustic body fluids, and that
is crucial. Caustic body fluids are able to fill up oxygen. In other
words, a very mild caustic will absorb 20 times as much oxygen as a very
mild acid. Therefore, the calcium keeps your body so full of oxygen that
it wards off calcium deficiencies. That's how it works. And it was
the calcium that did it. Okay, so that's the calcium. Then the
ionic element or part of this whole puzzle. Explain ionic in layman
terms so that I understand the correlation between them and then we'll
get to adding in the coral part.
If you look at a Tum, it's
not calcium. It's a calcium carbonate. It's calcium with CO2 added to
it. It's a compound. If you add some acid to it, then you digest it and
bust it up and so when it's in a glass, it disappears. That means it's
ionized. So the ionic, then, is basically already dissolved
calcium so that it's easy to ingest.
Yes, that's
correct. Then the coral part, that brings in the ocean elements
and the other benefits that we've seen in places overseas. I've heard of
several studies that have been done on folks, for example, in Okinawa
that use Coral Calcium just as a regular part of their daily diet and
their phenomenal effects. In fact, some of them, it's almost hard to
believe how long some of the folks have lived.
Yes, up to
140 years and going. The reason we can't say more is because that puts
us back at 1857, and we didn't even keep census then, so all we had was
maybe little names on bibles. But the bottom line is, these people DO
live that long. One of the reasons is because sometimes they have sons
who are 120 years old and their sons are 100 years old, and there ARE
records for those, so you know that the great-great-great grandpa HAS to
be 140, 150.
One thing I'd like to tell your listeners is that
when we talk about Coral Calcium, everybody thinks that they're mining
the coral reefs and that's just not true. What it is is that Okinawa is
just an island of coral. The coral disintegrates with weathering and
falls and forms coral sand. This coral sand sort of pats off the coral
reefs and almost kills them. What the Japanese do is they go in there
and they mine up the disintegrated sands from the coral and actual clean
up the coral reefs. The Japanese government will not allow them to touch
the coral itself. All they're doing is cleaning them up. There's a huge
resource.
I've heard you mention in brief the cancer connection
to calcium and also the heart disease connection. Let's talk for just a
moment, because those are some of the big killers, but when it comes to
aging: osteoporosis, menopause, what other things that we see in our
lives that the calcium may have an effect on?
Well, you
were getting in to so many things there, but when you said menopause, I
think back to the Reader's Digest article and they virtually said that
92% of hysterectomies wouldn't be necessary with calcium supplements.
PMS is crucial. Our bodies are biologically tied to the calcium. If you
have aches and pains, it's could be calcium. If you have osteoporosis,
it could be
calcium related. If you age prematurely, calcium deficiency could be a
factor too. And we can get in
and explain in detail with molecules exactly how it works. It's
technically and scientifically verifiable that calcium is the crucial
element in all these things.
Okay, I don't want to go stretching too far into the
outer limits here, but also understand that our bodies are basically
electrical charges: positives, negatives, pH. For example, you hear of
pH in a battery. You've got a pH balance. So, what relationship, then,
does calcium have to the natural electrical impulses that our body puts
off? I'll give you one example. All the electricity
produced for the heartbeat is from the calcium battery. You're
kidding!
No. And the same thing is true for the lungs. All
the electrical movement for the lungs. And all the electrical movement
of the muscle is from the calcium battery. So what you're telling me is
that if I have a muscle cramp, it's probably from lack of
calcium?
Sure. And within a couple of days the cramp
disappears as long as you're taking calcium properly. That happens to so
many people. When they've had aches and pains for years, two days later
there's nothing. They say, "It's a miracle!" Well, there are no miracles
here. This is just the way Mother Nature was supposed to work. Mother
Nature assumed you would be consuming the nutrients you needed,
especially calcium.
I have to admit, within the last week or so since
you and I first talked and I have been interested in this topic for
some time already anyway, in fact, we went out and bought some calcium
to give this thing a try. The thing that we found the most frustrating,
because I did have your material and I was looking for the ionic Coral Calcium. Guess what? It's
not readily available out there that I can find. Not in that form. I
mean, I can find calcium in every grocery store and drug store.
Well, let's step back. In 1790, the very first drugstore was created
in Europe. The drug stores we know today dispensing drugs? They were
doing other things, but do you know what was considered the very first drug in
the world? Coral Calcium. It was so popular. Every doctor prescribed
it, they cured this, they cured that. So what happened?
That was over 200 years ago. Well, we have all kinds of cures that we
put in the wastebasket and then we focus on disease. Disease is very
profitable; cures aren't. Anyway, the bottom line is, all other cultures
know and the Japanese people have sources, they actually mine it and
ship it. The rest of the world is not tuned to this. It has spread;
it's in Europe now and there are millions of people in Europe, France,
Sweden, England and now Spain that are consuming Coral Calcium. Coral
Calcium has just come to America. My guess is there's only about a quarter
million to a third of a million people currently consuming the Coral
Calcium. It just got here. On top of that, I predict by the year 2000,
over 10 million people will be on it because it DOES work. It has hundreds
of years of history. There's no question. Millions of testimonials.
It's safe. Even though it was considered the world's first drug, it's NOT a drug.
It's actually a nutrient. Okay, I guess the final question that I have for you tonight... Say,
for example, I'm someone listening and I do have hardening of the arteries.
Are we talking about the possibilities of reversing, say, "reverse the
curse" in a way? Can we turn the depletion of calcium around?
Absolutely. many diseases may be caused by acidosis. Acidification
of the body. The bottom line is, the cause of acidosis and the reason
for acidosis is lack of minerals, especially calcium. When you start
taking the calcium, your body does alkalize, drives out the acid. Dr.
Otto Warburg won two Nobel Prizes for proving this. You look
younger, you feel younger when you fill up with oxygen.
Okay. I said that was my last question, and I lied. I'm sorry. Because
this just dawned on me. One of the major crises as far as our physical
health in America is obesity. Are we talking about a possibility of
a calcium deficiency?
Calcium is so intertwined with all your biological activity.
Your metabolism affects your weight...
Of course. But I'll just give you one thing. Let's say you have a pair
of twins. One of the twins consumes a lot of Calcium. Then they
both sit down and consume a lot of fat. Now, I can tell
you when the fat gets in the stomach and starts being digested, the
twin with the calcium, the fat sees that calcium and it soaponifies.
It's like grandma, how she used to make her soaps. She used fat and
lye to make soap. So it then forms a soap. This soap will not be absorbed
by the intestines, so it passes into excretion. So the net result is,
the twin with the calcium didn't take in the fat; the twin without the
calcium took in the fat.
And if you don't take it in, you can't put it on.
That's right. So a lot of time, it's not what you're eating that's the
problem. It's what you're NOT eating that causes most of the problem
in America. The calcium helps keep the fat out, keep all your biological
functions working, and you can't really stay trim without it. That is fascinating. Well, I know we haven't solved all of the world's
problems tonight, however, I know we've solved a number of them for
everyone listening.
