Dr. Norman Shealy on Twilight America Products

Originally, going back about 15 years. Dr. Norman Shealy supported the work of Jim Carter. After some time their relationship dissolved due to disagreements over business policies. Jim Carter is no longer with us to defend his claim that he did have Dr. Shealy's support at the beginning. Dr. Shealy published a book that he later stopped selling. The text below is from Dr. Shealy's website:

The truly magical story of how this astounding discovery came to be and the science behind the magic.

For eons, humans have searched for the secret of the Fountain of Youth, the key to perpetual youth. And for eons, the secret was rumored to be, "in the water". Now, perhaps that very water of legend is available. And the results that those who have used the water report are no less amazing. Read the following interwiew to learn more. Holy Water, Sacred Oil book, Yinergy® Oil and Prills are available through the Self Health Systems Store.

An Interview with Dr. Shealy
(originally published by Aim International)

The Source of Disease, & the Fountain of Youth

An interview with C. Norman Shealy, M.D., Ph.D. C. Norman Shealy, M.D., Ph.D., is one of the world?s leading experts in pain management and his research into this has led to several patented techniques for pain relief. He is a graduate of Duke University medical school and a well-known author and lecturer. Since retiring from private practice in 1999, Dr. Shealy has devoted his time to research. One of his research projects is investigating the properties and values of [Yinergy Oil].

AIM: Dr. Shealy, you believe that there is really one cause of disease. Could you elaborate on this?

Shealy: In 1971, when I started concentrating on pain, I realized that I was not dealing with pain. I was dealing with stress. All illness is the result of stress. Most of us think of emotional stress?anger, frustration, and so on?but there are really four types of stress: emotional stress, physical stress, chemical stress, and electromagnetic stress. All of these affect our bodies in a negative way.

AIM: Could you elaborate?

Shealy: Let?s take electromagnetic stress. First, the brain does not deal with this type of stress very well. We know that when the brain is exposed to very little of this type of stress, the incidences of brain cancer double. It is estimated that there are 230 million times as many radio waves now as 70 years ago, and at the same time, brain cancer is the only cancer that has markedly increased in the past 20 years. I believe that this may be because of our exposure to electromagnetic stress. Or, let?s take chemical stress. When we smoke, we are putting stress on the chemical makeup of the body. And, of course, smoking a pack a day reduces a life span by some seven years. And the stress of flying?did you know that flying for six to seven straight hours produces the same amount of chemical stress as smoking 200 cigarettes? We can also look at physical stress. Now this is interesting. Physical stress can be inactivity?if you stay in bed for a week, you produce about the amount of stress on the body as breaking your leg! So, couch potatoes are subjecting their bodies to physical stress. And obesity?if you are 30 percent above your ideal weight, it?s like smoking three packs of cigarettes per day. Also important is the fact that stress is cumulative. If you drink two ounces of alcohol a day, you may not have a stress reaction, but if you drink a quart a week, you do. Or, if you take a few puffs on a cigarette, or a few teaspoons of sugar, or one-third of a cup of coffee, you will not set off a stress reaction. But if you take a couple of puffs, plus two teaspoons of sugar, plus the coffee, you get a stress reaction.

AIM: What does this cumulative stress mean to us?

Shealy: To make a jump ahead here, what I found is that a magnesium deficiency and, subsequent to that, low levels of the hormone DHEA are the major physiological principles of stress-induced illness. And, as I said, all illness is stress-induced. So, these two substances, the mineral magnesium and the hormone DHEA, are integral in safeguarding our health. A lack of these could well be the source of disease.

AIM: Could you give us more information on these substances?

Shealy: Nearly everyone is deficient in magnesium, and it is a critical mineral. Magnesium is involved in more than 300 essential enzymes in the body. It regulates the electrical charge of our cells, and if the charge is not normal, our cells our hyperexcitable. A hyperexcitable cell causes agitation, frustration, depression?stress. It also weakens our immune systems. Magnesium deficiency is seen in all major diseases, and higher levels of magnesium often have a major impact on recovery. For example, if you are given a shot of magnesium after having a heart attack, it improves your changes of recovery by 50 percent. DHEA is a hormone, and such a common hormone that it is largely ignored. I saw that by the age of 80, we only have 10 percent of the DHEA we had at age 30. I also saw that, like magnesium, low levels of DHEA are associated with almost every known disease. In fact, the only known diseases associated with normal levels of DHEA are schizophrenia and acute alcoholism.

AIM: Is there any way you can raise magnesium and DHEA levels?

Shealy: I have experimented with this. You can take supplements of DHEA, but this can be dangerous. Your DHEA levels must be low. If they are not, direct supplementation may increase certain cancers. But if you stimulate your body to increase DHEA, you avoid this risk. I found that natural progesterone can raise DHEA somewhat, as can certain types of acupuncture. As far as magnesium goes, I injected it because when you use it orally, very little is absorbed. It can speed up transit time, but the magnesium must be in your intestinal tract for 12 hours to be absorbed. As well, calcium, phosphorus, fat, and protein all block its absorption. But even giving shots raised the intracellular levels very little.

AIM: So there is really no good way to increase levels of these two substances?

Shealy: You can do it, but not too much. But then something happened. I met a man, Jim Carter, who told me he was helping people by having them soak in a liquid. I was skeptical of this, but when I saw the results, I felt there had to be something behind it. I thought perhaps that it must raise DHEA levels.

AIM: Were you able to test this idea?

Shealy: Yes, I had some of my students use two ounces in a daily bath for three months. They loved it! They found new energy and a sense of well-being. But, when I measured their DHEA levels, it was actually lower. I have to say I was disappointed. But I kept using it, varying amounts and I soon found that it did increase DHEA levels. I believe it initially decreased them because of an initial detoxification period.

AIM: So this was an ?a-ha??

Shealy: Yes, but I still had questions. This liquid also seemed to provide some benefits in a wide range of problems, such as high blood pressure, and I could not understand why. Then it hit me. It has magnesium in it. Everyone is low in magnesium. Maybe the magnesium would provide results; but was the magnesium getting through? We did more tests and found that after four weeks, three out of four users had higher intracellular magnesium levels. This was why virtually everybody found benefits. Everyone is magnesium-deficient, so providing magnesium is going to help everyone. I also believe that the magnesium acts as a catalyst to stimulate DHEA production.

AIM: So soaking in this liquid restores magnesium? Water does not penetrate the skin, so how is the magnesium getting in to the body?

Shealy: Now you?ve really hit the ?a-ha.? This liquid has unique properties. It acts like an oil, and has an oily feel, but it also mixes with water. It appears that the molecular structure has been changed. The only thing I can think is that this water?s unique properties allow you to absorb it through the skin and brings the mineral with it. It sounds odd, but my tests show that soaking in this does raise intracellular magnesium and DHEA levels.

AIM: This liquid is known as AIM Cell Wellness Restorer?.

Shealy: That?s right.

AIM: Could you tell us about thin water?

Shealy: Thin water is made with something called prills, and this thin water is really the starting point for the AIM Cell Wellness Restorer?. It seems to make the water ?thinner,? meaning less viscous, and this results in the water penetrating the cells better. This thin water seems to target intracellular health, while the AIM Cell Wellness Restorer? targets the cell membrane and outside the cell.

AIM: What implications does this have for our health?

Shealy: I feel we could do more for the health of the world by raising magnesium and DHEA levels than anything else we can imagine. We all should be using the simplest, safest way of getting our intracellular magnesium to a normal range. The simplest and most efficient way I know to do this is to use AIM Cell Wellness Restorer?.

AIM: I believe you are writing a book on this?

Shealy: Yes, and the title of the book reflects my attitude toward this. The thin water is holy water, and AIM Cell Wellness Restorer? is sacred oil, and this adds up to youth and wellness. The title of by book is Holy Water, Sacred Oil, the Fountain of Youth.

AIM: Could you tell us about it?

Shealy: I discuss this amazing water, both how it was ?discovered? and what it does for you. It?s a fascinating story of ancient artifacts and what I call ?Yinergy?,? or the essence of life. I also give results of my research and my work with magnesium and DHEA.

AIM: Thank you, Dr. Shealy.

In 2003 Dr. Shealy published his explanation about our discontinuing all Yinergy products and relationships.

About five years ago Dr. Shealy did some research on some unique products which eventually became known as Yinergy Oil, Gel, crystals, etc. Without our permission or research, people began substituting products called Twilight. We have never had any involvement with Twilight. Unfortunately, in the past months the controversies became strong enough and the product source erratic enough that we have withdrawn form Yinergy products totally. We have asked that our name and that of Dr. C. Norman Shealy be withdrawn from all former Yinergy products and have never given permission to have it associated with Twilight.

Over the next few months we will work with the scientific model that has always been a key to our work.

For 30 years Biogenics® has been synonymous with the quality we have researched and used. We expect to be able to provide the following Biogenics products:

Biogenics Magnesium Soaks—25% Magnesium Chloride with Biogenics crystals for stabilization and energetic enhancement. This will not be available before May, 2003..

We will continue to supply:

Biogenics Essentials—the high potency vitamin/mineral supplement taken by Dr. Shealy and recommended for everyone.
Biogenics Youth Formula—the patented combination of vitamin C, MSM, glucan that raises DHEA and is taken by Dr. Shealy and recommended for everyone.
Biogenics—Eugesterone— natural progesterone cream, a patented technique for assisting in increase of DHEA.
Biogenics Spa— with gold iodide crystals, Biogenics energizing crystals and spa. Available in mid-April, 2003

Biogenics Magnesium Products: At long last we have completed the studies on our magnesium products and are ready to supply them to those who have wanted our recommendations after we withdrew from the Yinergy products because of irregularities in the source. Our new products use USP magnesium chloride. Since 80+% of people are deficient in magnesium, I believe this is the most efficient way to absorb it. The VigEros is a later addition.
