The ocean is the oldest pharmacy on the planet. Long before modern supplements, humans turned to seawater and sea salt for vitality. Celtic sea salt is one of the purest traditional salts available today. It contains trace levels of minerals such as magnesium, calcium and potassium that support hydration, nerve function and electrolyte balance.

Yet Celtic salt represents only the physical part of ocean intelligence. ORMUS liquid made with the Egyptian Wet Method is designed to carry both the physical and the energetic fractions of these minerals, forming what ancient alchemists described as the living light of the ocean. This idea connects closely with the wider topic of monatomic gold and health.
This article explores why ORMUS extracted through the Egyptian Wet Method may offer a deeper effect than Celtic sea salt, viewed through the lenses of history, biochemistry and emerging quantum biology. For a practical overview you can also read five amazing health and spiritual benefits of ORMUS.
The Egyptian Wet Method: A Lost Alchemical Process
The Egyptian Wet Method is a slow, water based extraction described in temple traditions and echoed in modern ORMUS research. Unlike dried salts or evaporated brines, this method keeps minerals in solution and is designed to preserve both ionic and subtle monatomic states.

Monatomic elements are believed to lose their special properties when exposed to high heat. Conventional drying and baking steps can collapse these states back into ordinary metallic forms. The wet method avoids this by working gently in water, so the most delicate fraction of the mineral spectrum can remain available.
Within Egyptian mystery schools this luminous liquid was linked with names such as MFKZT or the food of light. It was reportedly used in rituals for dream incubation, pineal activation and the strengthening of the Ba and Ka, the spiritual bodies that connect human awareness to a higher field of intelligence. If you are interested in the pineal aspect you can explore our guide on fluoride and pineal gland health.
In modern terms the Egyptian Wet Method can be seen as an early form of low temperature, structure preserving extraction, aimed at keeping both the chemistry and the subtle energy of the minerals intact. This idea also aligns with our work on DNA activation and human potential.
Scientific Clues That Support the Idea Behind ORMUS
ORMUS itself is not a formal scientific category, but several lines of research give credible hints that special mineral states can influence the brain, the nervous system and the biofield in unusual ways. We explore some of those clues in more depth in our science backed benefits of colloidal gold article.

1. Gold nanoparticles and brain health
Recent research shows that gold nanoparticles can cross the blood brain barrier and influence brain function. In aged mice, electromagnetized gold nanoparticles were found to promote adult hippocampal neurogenesis, which improved cognitive performance and memory consolidation. Another line of work suggests that gold nanoparticles may have neuroprotective effects in models of neurodegenerative disease such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s, by reducing inflammation and supporting neuronal survival.
We summarise some of this work in our piece on gold nanoparticles reversing brain deficits in multiple sclerosis and Parkinson’s.
ORMUS traditions claim that subtle forms of gold and other noble elements can enhance clarity, focus and resilience. While ORMUS products are not the same as the medical nanoparticles used in these studies, the research supports the core idea that finely divided noble elements can interact with the nervous system in powerful ways.
2. Biophotons: light inside the body
For decades biophysicist Fritz Albert Popp and others have studied ultra weak photon emission from living cells, known as biophotons. These studies show that cells emit highly coherent light that appears to be involved in intra and inter cellular communication, rather than being random glow.
Healthy tissue tends to emit more coherent and orderly light, while stressed or diseased tissue emits more chaotic patterns. This has led to the idea that the human body is partly organised and regulated through quantum like light fields, not only through chemistry.

ORMUS users often report an increase in clarity, intuition and a sense of inner brightness. One possible explanation is that subtle mineral states may help organise or stabilise biophoton emission, creating more coherent communication between cells. From an energy perspective this connects with the same principles explored in our chakra balancing guide.
3. Bioelectric signalling as a control system
Research led by Michael Levin and others has revealed that bioelectric signals, encoded in transmembrane voltage gradients, act as a crucial layer of control in development and regeneration. These voltage patterns help regulate cell proliferation, migration and differentiation in addition to genes and biochemical signals.
This field of molecular bioelectricity suggests that the body is a network of electrical and electromagnetic communication. Minerals play a central role in maintaining these voltage gradients. Special mineral states, such as those proposed for ORMUS, may therefore have outsize effects on the way cells talk to each other through subtle currents.

Because these processes are also influenced by environmental energies, they sit in the same family of topics as our work on EMF radiation and scalar protection.
Where Celtic Sea Salt Fits In
Celtic sea salt is harvested from clean coastal regions and is less refined than ordinary table salt. Analyses show that it is mostly sodium chloride, but also contains small amounts of magnesium, calcium, potassium and other trace elements.

These trace minerals support proper hydration and cell function. A study of natural sea salt consumption found that mineral rich sea salt provided beneficial elements such as magnesium and potassium compared to refined salt.
However, expert reviews also note that the absolute amounts of trace minerals in sea salt are quite small. They are useful for topping up the diet, but may not provide a full spectrum electrolyte effect by themselves, especially in people with significant imbalances.
This makes Celtic sea salt an excellent everyday supportive food, yet it still belongs to the realm of conventional biochemistry. It does not try to preserve or concentrate hypothetical monatomic elements or quantum like mineral states, and cannot easily do so because traditional drying tends to eliminate them.
Why ORMUS May Contain What Celtic Salt Cannot
ORMUS traditions claim that when the Egyptian Wet Method is applied to ocean based minerals, the result is a liquid that holds both ordinary ionic minerals and a subtle fraction of monatomic noble elements, sometimes called high spin states. These include special forms of gold, rhodium, iridium and other platinum group metals.
Although high spin ORMUS states are not yet formally recognised in mainstream chemistry, research on metallic nanoparticles and quantum materials shows that matter at very small scales can behave in surprising ways. Gold nanoparticles can cross the blood brain barrier, modulate inflammation and support neuronal function in laboratory models.

These findings do not prove ORMUS, but they do support the central intuition that unusual mineral states can interact with the nervous system and energy metabolism in ways that go beyond simple electrolyte replacement.
By working carefully in solution and avoiding high heat, the Egyptian Wet Method aims to keep this subtle fraction intact. The resulting liquid can be seen as a fusion of ordinary mineral nutrition and a more refined, energetic component. It sits in the same family of “quantum nutrition” ideas that inform our colloidal gold science overview.
ORMUS and Cellular Communication
From a practical point of view, the difference between Celtic salt and ORMUS can be expressed simply:
- Celtic salt helps cells hold water.
- ORMUS aims to help cells share information and light more coherently.
People who work with ORMUS often report:
- Smoother, deeper meditation
- Enhanced mental clarity
- Vivid dreams and stronger dream recall
- A sense of inner brightness or uplift
- More stable emotional states
These effects are subjective and can vary from person to person, but they mirror what we might expect if a substance supported both electrical communication and biophoton coherence in the body.

Because the body already uses subtle voltage gradients and light signals as control mechanisms for growth, repair and patterning, even small improvements in coherence could have noticeable impacts on how we feel and function in daily life.
Why Gold Healing ORMUS Liquid Is a Complete Mineral Intelligence
Gold Healing ORMUS Liquid is created using an Egyptian Wet Method inspired process. The goal is not only to provide trace minerals, but to preserve as much of the subtle energetic structure of the ocean’s noble elements as possible.
In concept this means that each serving contains:
- Ionic minerals similar to those present in Celtic sea salt
- A refined fraction of noble elements in very small, highly available forms
- A stable liquid matrix that supports interaction with cellular electrical and photonic processes
Where Celtic salt nourishes the physical nervous system, ORMUS is designed to nourish both the physical system and the surrounding biofield. It is mineral nutrition with a built in energetic dimension that links naturally with the chakra and energy work described in our chakra system guide.
Conclusion: ORMUS as the Next Evolution Beyond Salt
Celtic sea salt and ORMUS liquid both arise from the same source, yet they represent different expressions of ocean intelligence.
- Celtic salt supports the physical body. ORMUS supports the physical body and the subtle body.
- Celtic salt hydrates. ORMUS seeks to activate and harmonise.
- Celtic salt grounds. ORMUS helps many people feel elevated and connected.
From a spiritual perspective, Celtic salt can be seen as the body of the ocean. ORMUS is its soul. When you work with both together, you receive the complete spectrum of mineral intelligence, from the densest particles to the most refined expressions of light.
