We still use crystal testing every day at our house. Just this morning I tested my 3 nieces and nephews and both the grandparents... not only for every nutrient I could think of... but also asking questions about dysbiosis, metals, MTHFR, food chemicals, etc. Crystal testing is the base of our pyramid for divining a healthy lifestyle.

Yes I use it daily, and i should link this thread to Marnica. : )
I get most of my success when it is medical related. I usually just test supps, but have been regularly testing foods for myself. Feta is fine, but raw cheddar is not.
I use it all the time for homeopathy, flower essences and cell salts. Although now I sometimes can just get a mental word and then test the item.
The interesting thing is that I find my pendulum to be more wild and risky than I normally would. It pushes boundaries more than I would normally do, allowing for more food reactions and supplement reactions than i would regularly like.
What I do know is that if I pendulum says "no" I highly respect that.

Thanks for replying. I am still experimenting with it but I have an easier time believing the No's over the yes's LOL. Some of the things it has said yes to I am not ready to try yet but all in good time as I become more confident with it. Yesterday Dd was eating salmon and I never questioned her eating it as being a problem. My mom was here and I wanted to show her what I was practicing so while Dd was eating I held it over her head and asked if the rice was okay and it was then I asked if the salmon was okay and it said no much to my surprise! My mom was really fascinated by it but I know my dh will want to commit me! Some things are an emphatic yes while others are a slight yes so I think I will keep those items at a minimum.
I also asked about my compounded hormone creams and it said it was safe for me to use and it would not effect my nursing toddler but then I asked if I needed to use it anymore and it said no. It has also said some supplements are okay that I have but none of the Kirkman Labs were okay and they have always been on my suspect list.

As for food testing I used to see a chrio that did muscle testing on DS. It was too $$ and I had to stop going. This is the same pronciple I guess. I still have yet to watch the video from page 1.
So one can use bascially anything on a string that can swing? it doesn't have to be a crystal? I could use my wedding ring and a necklace like for thr ring test??

You can use anything. At first I used one of my favorite necklaces, but found that it got clogged energetically very easily, a couple of times it just kept on giving me "no"s. I then switched to my wedding ring which was really responsive, but I spoke to some who works with rocks and she stressed that it might not be what i want to use regularly because of the sharing of energy. Might want to keep your wedding ring energetically clean.
I was in the store anyway to buy a pendulum. I still use my wedding ring when in a jam. I keep a string in different parts of my life (car, diaper bag, etc) and I just pull off my wedding ring when my pendulum is not available.
I find that my answers are much more accurate for myself and my boys, the next accurate is for my mother, the next for DH. I don't try my friends or friends kids too much because I don't find I'm as accurate.
We did muscle testing with mixed results and felt it wasn't worth the money. I think muscle testing really depends on the practictioner.

Blairstown, NJ below my mom's apartment??? 
Before I did that I checked on etsy. There were some options, but I hoped to energy test them before I bought one. A couple of the sellers said they would energy test their pendulums for you.

I got lazy and slacked off on testing things and regretted it. My question is what do you do if one day it says something is fine and a few weeks later it tests as a no?
Back in July I tested peas and it said okay so we started eating peas regularly then we started having problems and I tested them yesterday and it was a big no. Do I need to test the same foods everyday? Will some foods be okay one day but not the next and why would that be?
That can get old real quick if I have to do the same foods everyday. On the other hand I tested everything we consumed yesterday and I felt much better and had a perfect bm this morning. Too much TMI?
Now I just have to wait for Dd to clear from the offending foods cause last night was no fun and she wet the bed which she has not done for awhile now.

I understand what you are saying. At first I did a long list of foods and tested for each one. Mistakenly I thought that I only had to test once but when DS started to get bad reactions, I then retested the foods and some of them had changed from a yes to a no.
It makes sense in a way as the body is in a dynamic state and the enzymes within the digestive tract are probably changing in their state also. I realise that I need to test him before each and every meal that I take. I sometimes don't though, it depends on where I am and who is in our presence
So, I do three tests per food. One to see if it is okay for me to begin with. If it is not, I don't go any further with that food. If it is okay, I go to the second test, which is to see if it is okay on DS through my breast milk. If that is a yes, I go on to a third question to see if it is okay given directly as a solid food.
I found that only a few foods tested okay as a direct food. I haven't tried any of them out on him yet. Yesterday I went to an Indian restaurant that was wheat, dairy, soy, gluten free and I ate something with lentil flour in it. I didn't test him at the restaurant. He had a strong intolerance to it and we were up all night with him peeing and screaming with gas. He's better today though.
He previously tested okay (all 3 tests) for butternut squash. Today he tested 'no' for direct food and I was planning on trying it with him today. It could be that his tummy is too upset from the Indian food and that the squash in itself is not an issue for him. I should allow him time to get over the lentil flour anyway.
Poor boy is grabbing at our food constantly and I am eager to give him something to chew on!
Interestingly, the ped thought he has a cow's protein allergy but he tested okay with butter. He also tested okay with goat's cheese. I tried those two (just a little) and he didn't show any effect, although I do find with dairy that it can take 2 weeks to get reactions from him. Rice takes a few hours after I eat it.
The 3 tests that I do is not something I read or learned about, it's just my own little system, so I'd be interested to hear about anyone else's experiences and method of testing.
I just put in an order for clo with high vit butter oil from green pastures. I hope it tests okay as it wasn't cheap! If not it may test strong later, somewhere along the path of us healing our guts, so I'm sure it's worth it.

Writing it on a paper actually worked better for me, because then I didn't know what I was testing (I folded them up) until after I was done. Seeing the food, or word, made it really hard to just let go and let the pendulum do its thing without my subconscious affecting it the way I thought it should go, kwim?
I need to try that again.... haven't done it in a while!

For future reference- it's my understanding that you can test without having the substance to hold. You can think about that food, or write it on a piece of paper and hold the paper.

Interesting. I will try that as well. Would it work for a particular brand of something you think? For example there is one companies Chia Seeds that are negative for any gluten cc so we use that one only. If I write the brand and the item can it be that specific? It would save a ton of money if it does.

I would love to hear an answer about this from one of the experts though. I'm really curious!

Oh, and have you heard about Dr. Masaru Emoto's discovery with water crystals in Japan? It could be a similar principle (with writing the words on paper). During his experiments he taped words and phrases to bottles of water and froze it under special conditions. The results were amazing. The frozen water created different types crystals depending on the words that were written on the bottles. I'm totally digressing here but if anyone is interested, google him, it's fascinating. I have his book too.

I test fine with coconut but hers is a no with the crystal and I know that reaction from first hand experience. Neither of us eats coconut but once she is done nursing I am all over that one

So today I made a smoothie with berries and coconut milk. I didn't like the texture very much but drank it all the same. He is totally fine so far. So it must be that he is good with raw and not cooked coconut milk (through breast feeding).
Another thing whilst we're talking about coconut milk which I love so much..
. He's good with a non-organic brand that I buy (Dunn's River) but not with an organic supermarket brand (Waitrose). I found that the organic one has guar gum added to it. The other one doesn't. So perhaps he's not good with the guar gum. I will try to find an organic one with no gg added to it.Ahhhh...there are many foods I will be all over after our breast feeding!! xxx

That's a really good question! I'm just totally theorizing here (because I actually have no idea!), but I would think that your body would need a memory of the energy of that food. So you would have needed to touch it or eat it at some point in your life previously. Maybe if it's something you can find locally, you could go to the store and handle it for a while so that you pick up the energy from that specific food? Or maybe write out all the ingredients, including possible gluten cc, on the paper?
I would love to hear an answer about this from one of the experts though. I'm really curious! |
One day I will.I did test some lentils and quinoa I have and asked if they were cc with gluten and the lentils were clean but the quinoa was not. I have also asked if I needed to take a particular supp and have gotten strong yeses and nos. It is all very interesting.

I have been testing DS on coconut milk and then with a paste for making green Thai curry sauce. It always tested good on him and myself, until I cook it and eat it and he acts up on it. Then it dawned on me that I heat it to cook it but test him from the can when it's pre-cooked
