What is shungite?
Shungite is a rare black stone made of up to 99 percent carbon.
It’s mainly found in Shunga, a village in Karelia, Russia.
The stone has a unique composition. It contains fullerenes,
or 3-D spherical molecules made of 60 carbon atoms.
These molecules are hollow and sometimes called buckyballs.
Along with fullerenes, Shungite consists of nearly all the minerals on the periodic table.
The origin of Shungite is a mystery.
Typically, materials made of carbon come from decayed organic substances like old forests.
But the stone is thought to be at least 2 billion years old. This is before organic life existed on the planet.
Some theories of Shungite’s origins include:
A large meteorite collided into Earth and deposited Shungite into the ground
Shungite formed due to microorganisms in nearby water
the composition of organic matter in sedimentary rocks changed over time
Although scientists are unsure of how shungite was formed or where it came from,
they attribute the stone’s potential benefits to its fullerene content.
Does it have any benefits?
To date, there’s little scientific evidence on the benefits of Shungite
many are anecdotal or need more solid research.
We outline the reported researched benefits of Shungite below.
Kills bacteria and viruses
Fullerenes, which are found in shungite, are a type of carbon nanostructure (CNS).
CNSs are different physical forms of carbon.
According to a 2017 review of studies Trusted Source, CNSs can destroy harmful pathogens.
They reportedly work by damaging the cell walls of bacteria and viruses.
Additionally, when CNSs interact with microbes, the microbes lose electrons and die.
However, it’s unclear what this means for human disease.
More studies are needed to understand how the fullerenes in
shungite can specifically affect pathogens.
Purifies water
Since ancient times, Shungite has been used to purify water.
This is due to its alleged activity against bacteria and viruses.
However, research is lacking in this area, and there’s currently no clinical evidence to support
the theory that Shungite-infused water can help treat these conditions.
As such, it’s safer to follow standard medical treatment protocols instead.
A 2018 study states that Shungite can filter water by removing contaminants
and organic substances like pesticides.
A 2017 study also found that carbon from Shungite
can remove radioactive compounds from water.
Found to reduce oxidative stress
Reduces inflammation.?
Shungite was found to reduce inflammation.
The researchers measured lower levels of inflammatory markers,
including cytokines, or proteins involved in inflammation.
Because of this benefit, the scientists speculated that Shungite may
be useful for inflammatory diseases. Again, more research is necessary.
Eases physical ailments
Traditionally, water infused with Shungite has been used for
many ailments, we leave you to do the research on this.
Theoretically, it’s believed that if Shungite has antioxidant
and anti-inflammatory properties, it could help these conditions.
Shields of electromagnetic field (EMF) emissions
Users of Shungite say the stone has the ability to shield you from EMF emissions.
Relieves stress
According to anecdotal reports, Shungite is helpful for relieving stress.
It’s believed to soak up negative energy and balance emotions.
