The Wallach Revolution

The Citizens Committee for Better Medicine is proud to present “The Wallach Revolution – (An Unauthorized Biography of a Medical Genius)”. The book is now available and chronicles the challenges, successes, and unique perspective of Dr. Joel D Wallach, a true pioneer in the field of science-based, clinically verified medical nutrition.

Years of Autopsy, Research, and Scholarship

Dr. Wallach Talks Minerals

The lack of crop rotation was falsely thought to be the sole source of mineral depletion. In the late 1950’s and forward, as farmers began using chemical fertilizers to replenish lost nutrients, those fertilizers failed to reinfuse the soils with a complete and adequate array of minerals, favoring instead just three macronutrients: nitrogen, phosphorous, and potassium. Albrecht discovered that the nutrient value of food and feed crops grown at the start of the Twentieth Century vastly exceeded the nutrient value of food and feed crops after World War II.

Mineral Depletion

60 Minerals, Wallach insisted, were required for achieving and maintaining good health and was then, as it is now, a novel proposition. To this day, the scientific community has yet to catch up with Wallach’s understanding. But Wallach’s view stems in part from the work of Dr. Albrecht, who established that depletion of nutrients in soils parallel poor animal and human health. Wallach complemented that work and expanded upon it, by identifying the full complement of nutrients lost and establishing that oral supplementation would most effectively ensure that humans receive the nutrients which the soils, plants, and animals do not provide in health sustaining and enhancing quantities.

Wallach alone discovered that the employment of electricity resulted in the loss of the traditional source of dietary minerals – wood ashes. Wallach realized that at 3:00pm in the afternoon, Monday September 4^th, 1882, Thomas Edison pulled the switch on the first commercial electric generating plan on Pearl St. in New York City. Within ten years every city and town in the industrialized world converted from wood as the universal fuel to electricity.

Oral Supplementation

Because no one knew that their traditional dietary mineral source (wood ashes) was no longer available. No one made the connection between wood ashes and nutritional mineral sources, and therefore no one supplemented to make up the difference. Because people liked electricity, hydroelectric dams were built which provided large supplies of electricity, however there was an unintended consequence – flood control. No more spring floods, no more mineral rich silt to plow back into the soil each spring to renew depleted minerals

A Rich Source of Minerals

Not only that, but Wallach also studied geology, identifying layers beneath the earth’s surface in specific regions of the world where humic shale existed and embodied the mineral remains of prehistoric plants. These veins of mineral rich soil he knew would have to be tapped to provide the best organic forms of minerals.

90 For Life^TM

With a combination of state-of-the-art manufacturing and superior raw materials, Dr. Wallach and his team have created an exceptional oral supplement. The product contains 60 minerals, 16 vitamins, 12 amino acids, and two essential fatty acids. It ensures the ideal absorption of nutrients, resulting in the body’s optimal function.

Through these products with minerals designed for optimum absorption, thousands of patients suffering from chronic diseases have been helped. Above all, he continues to educate the public about the issue of mineral deficiency and the power of oral supplementation.
