From the Negative Ion Regeneration For Youthfulness and Longevity
Approximately half-a-century ago, a certain woman living in a large, crowded
city contracted tuberculosis. Doctors did what they could for her without
any avail. They gave her a morbid prognosis of inevitable death and she was
consigned to a gloomy existence without any hope or reason to live.
Deciding that she would at least die in more pleasant surroundings, she moved
from the big city to a humble log cabin in a pine forest somewhere in the State
of Maine. For an entire Winter she stayed there, busying herself with things
that kept her mind happy and occupied.
By
next Spring she noticed a peculiar thing about her respiratory state
of health. Virtually all of her symptoms of her former disease had abated.
Going to several medical doctors and a local hospital for various checkups,
she was pronounced free of TB. Her recovery was later chronicled in
a national best-seller entitled I Lived in the Woods.
It
wasn't anything in her diet that promoted such a remarkable
turnaround in her incurable disorder. Rather it was what she breathed
every few
seconds that accomplished the most good for her. In a
past issue of Soviet Life magazine (April 1969, p. 43), a leading
Russian biologist,
Nikolai Kholodkovsky made the following highly interesting
observations: "The air we breathe in the woods or in gardens contains vitamins given off by
plants." His studies had shown that in each cubic meter of air there are several milligrams
of volatile substances, including vitamins.
Two
of the nutrients emitted from the tree bark and needles of fragrant
pine odor, he discovered, were vitamin C and a form of bioflavonoid
called proanthocyanidins. Because bioflavonoids and ascorbic acid often
appear in combination with each other in plants, they form powerful
antioxidant effects.
The
woman who previously suffered from TB obviously benefited from the forest
air charged with vitamin C, which the research of twice Nobel Prize
winner Dr. Linus Pauling has shown to be outstanding for fighting viral
infections of any kind.
Thus,
it was that this woman's particular health condition, which the doctors
had completely given up hope of ever curing, was unwittingly reversed
by her geographical relocation into another environment totally charged
with nutrients in the air. It was, in a very real sense, these "vitamins of the air," which had healed her lungs of this ravaging disease.
