Patricia Bragg Ph.D.- "Proven throughout history for
physical, mental and spiritual rejuvenation, fasting promotes cleansing
and healing; helps normalize weight, blood pressure, cholesterol; rebuilds
the immune system; and helps reverse the aging process. If we are to get
these poisons out of our bodies we must fast. By fasting we give our bodies
a physiological rest. This rest builds Vital Force. The more Vital Force
we have, the more toxins are going to be eliminated from the body to help
keep it clean, pure and healthy."
Hippocrates - "Everyone has a doctor in him or her; we just have
to help it in its work. The natural healing force within each one of us
is the greatest force in getting well.Our food should
be our medicine. Our medicine should be our food. But to eat when
you are sick, is to feed your sickness." Hippocrates, Greek physician
(460 BC - 377 BC)
Benjamin Franklin - "The best of all medicines
are rest and fasting"
Dr.
Herbert Shelton MD - "It is estimated that fasting for the alleviation
of human suffering has been practiced uninterruptedly for 10,000 years.
No doubt it has been employed from the time man first began to get sick.
Fasting was part of the methods of healing practiced in the Ancient Asculapian
Temples of Toscurd Guido, 1300 years before the time of Jesus. Hippocrates,
the mythical Greek "Father of Physic," seems to have prescribed total abstinence
from food while a "disease" was on the increase, and especially at the
critical period, and a spare diet on other occasions. Tertullian has left
us a treatise on fasting written about 200 A.D. Plutarch said: "Instead
of using medicine rather fast a day." Avicenna, the great Arab physician
often prescribed fasting for three weeks or more." more
Dr. Joseph Rodrigo M.D - "Almost all diseases begin in the digestive
track. This includes diabetes, asthma, cancer, alzheimer's, heart
disease, memory loss, fibromyalgia, MS, and too many to even list here.
If you are seeking health, and you have not found the answers to your recovery
and healing, start here. Your intestinal track
is the origin of disease, and it is also the origin of your healing.
I cannot emphasize enough how important the cleansing of your digestive
system is, to your health."
Evart Loomis M.D. -"Fasting is the world's most ancient and natural
healing mechanism. Fasting triggers a truly wondrous cleansing process
that reaches right down to each and every cell and tissue in the body.
Within 24 hours of curtailing food intake, enzymes stop entering the stomach
and travel instead into the intestines and into the bloodstream, where
they circulate and gobble up all sorts of waste matter, including dead
and damaged cells, unwelcome microbes, metabolic wastes, and pollutants.
All organs and glands get a much-needed and well-deserved rest, during
which their tissues are purified and rejuvenated and their functions balanced
and regulated. The entire alimentary canal is swept clean. By rebuilding
immunity, health is naturally restored and disease disappears. If health
and immunity are thereafter conscientiously maintained, the individual
is no longer vulnerable to disease and dieting become unnecessary. Surely
one of the most overlooked and yet most valuable modes of healing that
will be rediscovered in the future of the new medicine is the fast. This
is because of the increasing interest in looking to oneself for healing
powers. For the fast is an inward process and cannot be entered upon only
from an outer approach with any expectation of a lasting benefit. The person
must invariably be involved with the overall results. This therapeutic
encounter is in direct contrast to the usual non-involvement in the physician-directed,
disease-oriented medical practice of today."
Adventures
in Therapeutic Fasting
by Lonny J. Brown, Ph.D.
Although nowadays the common response to illness is usually to "take
something," it may be advisable to try the opposite. Therapeutic fasting
is an excellent self-healing practice. It induces metabolic changes that
are inherently cleansing and repairing. The organs empty and rest, conserving
energy, promoting the elimination of waste and accumulated toxins, and
making cell regeneration much more efficient. Fasting is mankind's most
ancient healing strategy. Many traditional cultures, including Oriental,
east Indian, and Native American, have long regarded it a dependable curative
and revitalizing personal health measure. Hippocrates prescribed fasting,
as did Galen and Paracelsus, and it was practiced by Plato, Socrates, Pythagoras,
and Mahatma Gandhi. In modern Europe, reputable clinics that support therapeutic
fasting are quite common. In Sweden it's practically a national sport.
Proponents of fasting offer thousands of testimonials from recovered
asthmatics, arthritics, insomniacs, and ex-sufferers of migraines, skin
and digestive disorders, and dozens of other ailments. They maintain that
- with the exception of serious conditions like tuberculosis, ulcers, diabetes,
hypoglycemia, blood, liver, kidney and heart diseases- systematic voluntary
abstention from eating is almost always a healthy first response to illness.
Dr. Bernard 
Jensen,
author of "Tissue Cleansing Through Bowel Management" has supervised over
50,000 fasts at his center in Escondido, CA."

An Introduction to the Benefits of a Professionally Supervised Fast

Fasting-And
Eating-For Health : A Medical Doctor's Program for Conquering Disease
by Joel Fuhrman MD
"I was overweight, plagued with high blood pressure, high cholesterol,
high tryglicerides and diabetic. Treatments by some of the "best" physicians
(with medication) in Israel and in California resulted in no significant
improvement. Three years ago I started to do my own research and got across
Dr. Fuhrman's book. Well written to be understood by layman and with scientific
evidence. Since applying Dr. Fuhrman's recommendations, I lost 70 pounds
in 5 months (the first 40 in 6 weeks). All indicators went back to better
than normal after two weeks into the program. I later experienced 20 days
fast. It was the best experience in my life. Since then, I bought more
than 3 dozens of the book and gave it to everyone I care about. This book
is my new bible. It is a great reading material for understanding and reinforcement.
If practiced by everyone, physicians' rows will be cut by 90%. Not to be
missed if you serious about your health, your well being and those around
you." an amazon.com reviewer

Water The Great Healer
and Detoxifier! The Miraculous Health Benefits of Earth's Most
Essential Resource
No matter what the specific health or fitness goal, one cannot achieve
the maximum benefit from any health program without drinking
the right kind of water in the proper amount. All experts agree, that next
to the air we breathe, water is the most important thing we will ever put
in our bodies. It is surprising that so much time and money is being spent
on supplements, organic foods and natural remedies but little attention
is given to the quality and effect of the water with which those items
are taken.
The Mayo Clinic had pronounced Lloyd Palmer, of Minnesota, as incurable.
Since 1965 he had suffered from excruciatingly painful arthritis of his
spinal column -- ankylosing spondylitis. His spine twisted and lost movement
until, he says, he became a "walking comma." He suffered pain for 31 years,
until he started to drink water and take salt. He writes: "I continue to
be pain-free with my ankylosis spondylitis one year after starting the
water/salt regime. My blood pressure is normal as well. I thank God every
day for allowing me to finally be pain-free."
The Quality of Water can positively or negatively affect one’s health.
Depending on what part of the country one lives in, it is easy to find
trace amounts of nitrates, pesticides, heavy metals, radioactive compounds,
petrochemicals and parasites coming from the local municipal water supply.
The toxins and free radicals in these waters are made significantly more
toxic to humans by the addition of chlorine -- a compound mandated by the
public health department.
Note
from Shirley:
I NEVER drink plain water
when I fast. During my water fasts, I always add Himalyan
Crystal salt to my energized, alkaline microwater.
When water and salt combined, they form a new dimension, Sole
(So-Lay). Sole is Alive! It’s the fundamental mineral infusion for
your body. You can replace electrolytes and balance your energy simply
and naturally by drinking a Sole solution each day. The sole is an excellent
product for balancing the pH factor of your body. With the sole, one can
also get rid of heavy metals such as lead, mercury, arsenic, amalgam and
calcium because the crystal salt is able to break up their molecular structures.
Mankind originally emerged from the sea. So we, so to speak, still carry
sea water in our veins; the chemical and mineral composition of our blood
and saline fluids have an amazing similarity to sea water. And when we
are an embryo in our mother's womb, we are encased in a sack filled with
a saline fluid which is in some ways identical to sea water. Sea water
contains 84 mineral elements. These same 84 mineral elements are found
in our bodies. Salt Deficiency: the cause of many serious
diseases
I may also alternate a little
or Calcium Montmorillonite Clay or earth made fulvic
minerals with the Crystal Salt. The salt, clay or fulvic in water help
draw out toxins and rejuvenates the body. When organic, unrefined salt
lack in your diet, weakness and sickness follow

Fasting for
health in holistic veterinary medicine
A powerful animal healing practice
"A
sick animal retires to a secluded place and fasts until tis body is restored
to mormal. During the fast it partakes only of water and the medicinal
herbs which inherited intelligence teaches it instinctively to seek" Juliette
de Bairacli Levy
William Pollak D.V.M. on fasting:
"Many
experts on canine nutrition recommend occasional fasting, such as one day
without solid food per week or month, to simulate the natural conditions
in which these animals evolved. Fasting gives the digestive organs an opportunity
to rest and helps the body repair itself. In the wild, predators alternate
between gorging themselves and going for one or several days without food,
so a once-a-week or once-a-month fast is both beneficial and easy for most
dogs to adjust to."
Bill Winter DVM - "To this day I
do not believe that I have ever discovered a healing technique quite as
powerful. I have recommended fasting for 10,000 to 20,000 animals
and have seen true miracles over these years of practice." Juliette
de Bairacli Levy says that the two most important aspects of natural
animal rearing are: fasting and raw diet." more
about holistic animal health and nutrition
In
her marvelous book, Wild
Health: How Animals Keep Themselves Well and What We Can Learn From ThemCindy
Engles, Ph.D. documents how injured and sick animals retreat in an isolated
place to rest and fast until healed.
"Often the first indication of sickness is that an animal goes off its
food - an observation that has led many traditional herbalists to conclude
that fasting is a natural and beneficial response to sickness... This lack
of appetite can be an effective way of speeding recovery. Bacteria need
iron, and the body makes many adjustments to reduce the availability of
iron during an infection. If an animal keeps eating, any iron in its food
also feeds the pathogens, so force-feeding a sick animal or patient can
be counterproductive. Fever reduces appetite, so if a fever is artificially
suppressed with drugs and appetite returns, not only do we lower temperature
but the increased iron intake can keep the infection going longer. The
traditional dictum 'Starve a fever' is medically sound advice." Cindy
Engel "
JUICE-FASTING
The powerful healing therapy that no-one ever uses.
"When you don't feel well, stop eating and go to juices." The first
thing an animal does when it is sick is stop eating. They fast themselves.
Likewise, the first thing we need to do when we don't feel well is: stop
food. There are a lot of reasons for that. Food takes a tremendous amount
of energy to digest--and that's blood and energy. Our digestive system,
basically the muscles and the tissues, fill with blood. When you stop eating,
your digestive system rests, and all that blood and energy can be put somewhere
else to heal you.

Toxaemia and Internal
Cleansing
Dr. Mercola - "Every
act of every cell in the body produces waste. This waste is poisonous,
it is incompatible with the life of the cell..." "The cells throw their
waste into the lymph that carries it back to the blood. The blood takes
the waste to the excretory organs mentioned above for elimination." "Normal
elimination keeps the blood and lymph clean.
Toxaemia is hence the
aftermath of Enervation. Enervation in brief is the sum total of all our
expenditures of nerve energy involved in our day to day living. When the
sum of our daily expenditure is greater than we can or than we do recuperate
daily, we become enervated. When an enervated individual is saturated with
toxins, any additional enervating influence that puts an added check to
elimination will cause the toxaemia to be pushed above the point
of toleration, and will precipitate a crisis, a process of compensatory
elimination through channels whose main work is not elimination, e.g.,
en mucous membranes (colds, catarrh, inflammation and skin eruptions)."
"Medical science is founded on a false premise. Namely, that
disease is caused by extraneous influences" Dr. Tilden
1926 "Toxemia
Explained
"Autogenous
self-generated poisoning is what we call Toxaemia."Natural Hygiene
holds that the one cause of all disease is the toxic saturation at the
cellular level of the bodily tissues, bloodstream, and fluids brought on
by the depletion of Nerve Energy reserves through wrong living habits.
This state of self-poisioning is alternately termed "Auto-Intoxication,"
"Toxicosis," and "Toxemia." Every act of every cell in the body produces
waste. This waste is poisonous, it is incompatible with the life of the
cell..." "The cells throw their waste into the lymph that carries it back
to the blood. The blood takes the waste to the excretory organs mentioned
above for elimination." "Normal elimination keeps the blood and lymph clean.
Toxaemia is hence the aftermath of Enervation. Enervation in brief is the

Fasting will enable the body to rid itself of toxins and hygienic living
will prevent their recurrence." Doctor

"There is really only one disease of the body. It is called Toxemia.
Many doctors of natural hygiene have proven this in their work, but common
knowledge of the way the body works, along with common sense, will also

explains the definition of Toxemia as natures effort to eliminate toxins
from the blood." Paul
Nison
The science of Natural Hygiene is about enhancing physical, emotional
and mental well-being through education. It provides us with a simple,
straightforward system for regaining and maintaining superb human health
and beauty. Hygiene is personally empowering and liberating. It teaches
independence and rational action. It banishes fear and ignorance regarding
human health and how to keep it. Ultimately it is about freedom.

The Importance of a Clean, Healthy GI Tract
Several
factors linked to modern civilization threaten your internal health, including
unsafe vaccinations, environmental toxins, pollutants, the overuse of antibiotics
(all the foods they contaminate), and even chlorinated and fluoridated
water. Add to the list the burgeoning consumption of alcohol and drugs
(prescription and recreation) plus poor diets, and you have only a few
of the modern-day enemies endangering your gastrointestinal health!
Autointoxication or "self-poisoning" from the
bowel was a recognized cause of disease in the early 1900s. Dr. H. H. Boeker
stated in 1928, "It is now universally conceded that autointoxication is
the underlying cause of an exceptionally large group of symptom complexes."9
Recent research seems to support these earlier conclusions about intestinal
toxemia. Virtually every state of health is affected by the GI tract. In
addition to processing nutrients as the principal pathway of the digestive
system, the gastrointestinal tract (GI tract.) is
a prominent part of the immune
system, providing various levels of defense against pathogenic
microorganisms and potentially toxic substances throughout the path of
digestion. If these waste products are not regularly eliminated,
they begin to poison the body and blood. Unchecked, this autointoxication
may ultimately lead to disease and even death.
Dr. H. H. Boeker believed that over 90 percent of diseases are caused
or complicated by toxins created in the intestinal tract by unhealthy
foods that are not properly eliminated." Autointoxication occurs when,
due to poor elimination, certain toxins escape from the bowel into the
blood stream and poison the body, causing a silent form of self-poisoning.
Sixty
to 80 percent of the lymphatic system is in your small intestine. Called
the gut-associated
lymphoid tissue (GALT),
it is almost synonymous with the term immune system. The gigantic task
of your GALT is to discriminate between nutritious components and possible
antigens passing through your bowel.
Substances that are toxic to our bodies come at us from all directions:
the air we breathe, the food we eat, the water we drink, the cleaning products
we use, and the metabolic waste produced inside us. Toxins build up in
the body faster than they can be removed, contributing to premature aging
and chronic and degenerative diseases.
Dr.
Miller's Detox Tea - formulated by Dr. Bill Miller Ph.D. - is
a unique herbal blend of safe, all-natural ingredients designed to gently
cleanse the digestive tract and detoxify the body. Its name is taken
from the traditional name of one of the ingredients, a widely-used medicinal
herb known as Holy Thistle, and is not intended to imply any religious
significance - although grateful users who experienced remarkable health
improvements after drinking Holy Tea often thank God for this gift of healing!

The
Ancient Path of Cleansing: The History of Colonic Hydrotherapy
Colon Hydrotherapy (enema) is a gentle internal massage and bath using
warm, purified water that can help to eliminate stored fecal matter, gas,
mucus and toxic substances from the colon. Death
begins in the colon. The history of Colon Hydrotherapy reaches far
into the past. Reports about enemas were found on ancient Egyptian
papers dating to 1500 B.C. The Chinese Medicine used Colon Hydrotherapy
even earlier than that. Cleaning the colon also plays an important
role in Ayurvedic medicine. Until the beginning of the 20th century
Colon Hydrotherapy was a well-known therapy. Today's sophisticated
technology promotes both the safety and sanitation of this popular cleansing
practice.
The historians tell us that the practice colon hydrotherapy, or in its
more basic form, the enema, was passed down from the Gods to the Egyptians.
There are numerous reports of the frequent use of the enema
by the Egyptians, with all of them referencing a papyrus of the 14th century
B.C., that is stored in the Royal Museum of Berlin.
Use
of the enema was not limited just to Egyptians. Information on the use
of enemas was recorded on the cuneiform inscriptions on Babylonian and
Assyruan tablets, as early as 600 B.C., and there are references recorded
in Hindu medical texts such as the Susruta Smhita, the work of Susruta,
the father of Hindu surgery. Susruta describes the use of "syringes and
bougies as well as a rectal speculum."
From the eleventh century to the fifteenth century, the early enema
syringe was still relatively unknown and was not available to the masses.
The preferred and most readily available
apparatus remained a tube made of bone, reed or metal connected to a sleeve
or animal bladder called the "clyster purse". The bag was emptied by squeezing
it between the two hands. Dr. Russell reports that in Spain, the method
was called "playing the bagpipes". During the middle ages, information
on the enema continued to grow and the use of the enema became the popular
vogue of the wealthy and even reached to the highest levels of the royalty.
With this growth in popularity, the evolution of the apparatus had to follow.
Dr.
Herbert M. Shelton MD. - "The colon has been accused of being lazy;
it has been claimed to be superfluous and its removal advocated; it has
been blamed as the source of almost all the so-called diseases with which
man suffers. As a consequence of this, it has been goaded and pricked with
laxatives, cathartics, and purges, cut with knives, filled by injection,
with plain water, soapsuds, molasses, oils,and other substances to force
it to act. It has been filled from above withstand, wheat bran, rough,
bulky vegetables, psyllium seed, agar-agar, mineral oil, olive oil, etc.
All of these and many more agents have been employed to force the colon
to empty itself. They have been employed by those who cannot trust the
functions of life to the laws and forces of life, but who feel that they
must constantly interfere with the functions of life if life is to continue.
They either irritate the bowels and cause them to act vigorously to eject
the source of irritation, or fill them so full of bulk that they are forced
to "move" to make room for the succeeding load of bulk. This plan works
on the same principle as that of the hay bailer. One bail of hay is forced
out by the one that comes after. It is a plan of remedying sluggish bowels
by giving them more work to perform."
Natural
Approach to Constipation - Hydrotherapy and Enema,
“One of my more significant cases was Tommy, an eight-year-old boy with
the most awful constipation anyone could imagine,” says former general
surgeon and emergency medicine specialist Paul Flashner, MD, of Wellesley,
Massachusetts. Observing their superior results for his patients, Dr. Flashner
has more recently adapted his treatment techniques almost completely to
complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). Most definitely, he has incorporated
colon hydrotherapy as a regular CAM technique.
“Tommy’s constipation was really bad. He never had a bowel movement
for a week at a time. Recognizing the dangers of physiological toxicity,
his parents took their son for consultation with numerous gastroenterologists.
The child had been subjected to colonoscopy a dozen times, but nothing
could be found as the source of his blockage. Laxatives hardly helped at
all. There was no diagnosis except that he suffered severely from 
constipation,”
confirms Dr. Flashner. “Then the parents found their way to me so that
the boy might undergo examination and treatment one more time. They described
their eight-year-old’s condition. “I improved the child’s diet and removed
all junk foods. Then I instigated an exercise program, had him drink lots
of water, balanced his colonic flora, and added fiber food supplements.
But most vital for Tommy’s welfare is that he took colon hydrotherapy under
my prescription. The beneficial effect was dramatic, for within six months
he was experiencing a natural and normal bowel movement every day. No laxatives
were involved in his progress,” states Dr. Flashner. “Now the child does
not need to consult me anymore; still, he continues his colonic cleansing
by having colon hydrotherapy. He did this once a month for six months,
and currently he undergoes the cleansing just four times a year. It’s been
two years that Tommy remains in excellent physical condition
“Colon hydrotherapy
is the perfect specific
procedure to eliminate constipation and restore normal bowel function.
My approach to medical practice is to balance the GI tract using stool
testing. I find various pathologies relating to bacteria, yeast, parasites,
and other organisms of this nature. A lot of disease comes from imbalances
in the colon, as manifested by inflammatory bowel disease, ulcerative colitis,
autoimmune diseases, allergies, multiple sclerosis, and certainly constipation.
Such imbalances can be corrected by means of colon hydrotherapy, herbal
supplements, and diet,” says Dr. Paul Flashner. “There is no question about
the huge difference a health professional can bring to the patient by utilizing
colon hydrotherapy plus other associated complementary and alternative
methods of healing.”
Enemas
can be used by those who have problems with a sluggish, irregular or under
active bowel. Enema is proven as the best natural method for a clean colon.
It is a tremendous remedy for all kinds of bowel problems. Many ingredients
can be added to enema water to increase its effectiveness in some specific
manner. Coffee
enemas help detoxify the liver. Flaxseed
tea enemas relieve inflammation in the bowel. Bentonite,
a clay water, when added to enema water assists in absorbing and mobilizing
toxins from the bowel wall. Acidophilus culture taken orally is helpful
in detoxifying the bowel and in building friendly bacteria. Acidophilus
implants can also be inserted rectally over night.
I've received reports from people suffering from constipation who are using
small enemas every morning and evening to help empty their bowels. They
squirt a little warm water from a rubber ear syringe into the rectum
while sitting on the toilet. Within 5 to 30 seconds that little bit of
water can help wash out or expell fecal matter.

What Goes In Must Come Out
By: Marge Hartwig, Master Herbalist
Modern lifestyle has taken its toll on our digestive and elimination
organs. Refined, processed, low fiber foods and animal fats, a lack of
exercise and an ever increasing level of stress have all contributed to
our current gastro-intestinal health crisis. According to the latest edition
of The Merck Manual, the medical industry's standard text for dianosis
and treatment of disease, almost 1/2 of American adults over 50 have herniated
pockets in their bowels which is called Diverticulosis. Due to sluggish
bowel movements, these "bowel pockets" fill with old fecal material which
can be reabsorbed back into the bloodstream. This can infect the entire
body causing all types of toxic reactions.
A sluggish bowel can retain pounds of old, toxic and poisonous fecal
matter. Many times the real cause behind sickness and disease is this retention
and reabsorption of these toxic wastes. Is it any wonder that in 1992 the
most common cancer among men and women in the United States was Colon-Rectal?
What is the normal frequency of bowel movement in a healthy person? There
has been a great misconception among the public and most medical professionals
on just what is considered normal. For years, doctors have thought that
once a day to, maybe once a week was perfectly normal. Yet a study of more
primitive people and people living in the third world of nations tell us
quite a different story. They eliminate within 20 to 30 minutes following
each meal. We believe "normal" is eliminating once for every meal you eat,
and we also find that we don't feel very good if we don't.
Through the careful buying of organically produced veggies, avoiding
foods that contain perservatives and reducing your consumption of animal
foods, you can make a major change in your body's health. But if you don't
clean out this excessive waste build up, you've only done half the job
and maybe even the wrong half. The first step in anyones health program
is to stimulate, clean, and tone all the elimination organs, and the bowel
is the best place to begin. You feel better and you look at the life better.
It's easier to tollerate life's little problems and therefore you simply
get along with your neighbors better. Maybe we could have a better world
just by giving all the bad guys a colonic? See

health problems. This colon cleanse kit can absorb and pull the plaque
from your intestinal walls and carry it out of your system. It is a 5 day

Detoxification
comes in many forms and refers to many different programs that cleanse
the body of toxins.
Today, our environment is toxic and the foods we eat, even the air we
breathe and the water we drink is laden with chemicals foreign to our system.
Therefore, everyone is undergoing some type of detoxification to maintain
life and health. Although basic detoxification begins with diet, detox
programs may include nutritional fortification for the liver, lungs, kidneys,
bowels and blood. Detoxification for the body may refer to the cleansing
of the bowels, kidneys, lungs, the liver or the blood, since these are
the organs involved in detoxification of chemicals and toxins from the
body. The liver acts as an in-line filter for the removal of foreign substances
and wastes from the blood. The kidneys filter wastes from the blood into
the urine, while the lungs remove volatile gases as we breathe." Dr. Ted

The
secret to good health lies in the friendly bacteria in the intestinal tract
The secret to good health lies in the friendly bacteria in the intestinal
tract. Lactobacillus bacteria form a significant part of the natural intestinal
flora. Large populations of this, and other lactic acid producing
bacteria, regulate the levels of friendly bacteria and reduce the
levels of toxic pathogens that cause ill health. The reproduction ability
of the bacteria in the gut is the single most important factor in a probiotic
product. The bacteria must be in their natural state and alive so that
once they arrive in the gut they can multiply and produce all the sub-
strains necessary to maintain a healthy intestinal flora. Common warning
signs of a bacterial imbalance:
• Allergies and food sensitivities
• Difficulty losing weight, sugar/carbohydrate craving
• Frequent fatigue, poor concentration
• Frequent constipation or diarrhoea
• Faulty digestion, acid reflux and other gut disorders
• Sleeping poorly, night sweats
• Painful joint inflammation, stiffness
• Bad breath, gum disease and dental problems
• Frequent colds, flu or infections
• Chronic yeast problems
• Acne, eczema skin and foot fungus
• Extreme menstrual or menopausal symptoms learn

Optimum
Health Through Natural Hygiene
The science of Natural Hygiene is about enhancing physical, emotional
and mental well-being through education. It provides us with a simple,
straightforward system for regaining and maintaining superb human health
and beauty. Hygiene is personally empowering and liberating. It teaches
independence and rational action. It banishes fear and ignorance regarding
human health and how to keep it. Ultimately it is about freedom.
Natural Hygiene holds that the one cause of all disease is the toxic
saturation at the cellular level of the bodily tissues, bloodstream, and
fluids brought on by the depletion of Nerve Energy reserves through wrong
living habits. This state of self-poisioning is alternately termed "Auto-Intoxication,"
"Toxicosis," and "Toxemia."

You may feel worse before you begin to feel
better...
The Road To Better Health may
begin with a Healing Crisis
A healing crisis is also known as the Herxheimer Reaction which occurs
when the body is detoxifying too rapidly and toxins are being released
faster than the body can eliminate them. As you move toward better health
with natural healing programs and better nutrition, healing begins to occur.
As part of the healing process the body will begin to discard toxic residues
which have built up in your body over the years. The healing process usually
does not occur without repercussions. During the initial phase of healing,
as your body begins to clean house, (detoxify) and your vital energy begins
to repair and rebuildinternal organs, you may experience headache, uneasiness,
flu like symptoms and fatigue.
The Incredible Detox
and Healing Powers of Raw (Living) Foods and Juices
"The fastest way to restore wellness is to stop putting into the body
the things that have caused the physical problem to develop in the first
place, and then give the body the nutrients it needs to repair and rebuild
itself. The body is self-healing when the infraction is stopped and proper
nutrients provided". Rev. George Malkmus

Wheatgrass Juice: wonder cleansers
Most people who have explored the wondrously wide avenues of self-healing
have heard about wheatgrass. Wheatgrass juice has been proven over many
years to benefit people in numerous ways: cleansing the lymph system,
building the blood, restoring balance in the body, removing toxic metals
from the cells, nourishing the liver and kidneys and restoring vitality.
One ounce of wheatgrass juice has the vitamin and mineral equivalent of
2.2 pounds of fresh vegetables. It contains most of the vitamins and minerals
needed for human maintenance, including the elusive B12. Many of the benefits
of wheatgrass juice stem from the fact that it is a living food, which
is a complete protein with about 30 enzymes and is approximately 70% crude
chlorophyll.
To
detoxify
my blood and to maintain my excellent health and vitality I drink daily
6 to 8 ounces of freshly pressed mixture of wheatgrass,
parsley,
cilantro,
bitter-melon-vine/leaf,dandelion,
and other green leafy veggies. I mix in one tablespoon of bee
pollen. one ounce of fulvic minerals
, one ounce of marine phytoplankton, 2
ounces of Goji juice (rich
in glyconutrients).
I also drink Dr.
Miller's Detox Tea. I grow my own wheatgrass in flats by
my windows (view
instructions). Wheatgrass played
a major role in my health recovery of severe lifelong illnesses. I use
the
Handcrank juicer (rust proof stainless steel) specifically designed
to get the maximum juice from leafy plants or grass. (most other juicers
shred the grass or leaf causing a huge mess and no juice.) Shirley

An outline by Dr. Joseph
Mercola
The following information took me over 7 years to compile. It
is not something I came up with after a bad dream. It is a document that
is in a constant state of evolution. I have used it for thousands and thousands
of patients and I see the miracles it performs on a daily basis.
I do recommend that you read the longer detailed
version of this outline daily for two weeks to fully understand all
that I am trying to communicate. If you follow all the hyperlinks (blue
underlines) you will find that the document is a book of about 300 pages
long.
There is no charge to you for this information. It is provided solely
for your benefit.
The diet works, NOT because I am sort of
super nutritional doctor, but it is because I listened to the people who
entrusted me to take care of their bodies. When a recommendation did not
work or made people worse, or new information came out, I revised the program.
Nearly half of the detailed guidelines are written by the experiences
of the people I have cared for.
This diet program does NOT work for everyone,
but about 85% is a very good percentage of
success.
It is hard to follow, and you will be a social outcast with most of
your family and friends. But then again only you can make the tough
choices it takes to change the food you put in your body to release the
wonderful healing power that God has given to each and every one of us.
All you have to do is follow the
follow the program with all its cautions and most of you will see miracles
occur. The chronic health problems that you have suffered with for so long
will be gone, as will be the medications you have taken to control the
symptoms.
My chief therapist, Jody, has compiled an excellent
series
of steps you can apply to practically develop goals to implement the
program. The goals are taken from one of my all time favorite books, Maximum
Achievement by Brian Tracy.

What
Every Parent Should Know BEFORE Their Childen Are Vaccinated! Why
are a growing number of parents and health care professionals around the
world questioning vaccination? The controversy stems from the thousands
of deaths and permanent disabilities attributed to vaccination annually,
as well as the many published medical studies, government statistics, 
congressional
testimonies, and other credible sources that directly contradict commonly
held assumptions about vaccine safety and effectiveness.
Bart Classen, a Maryland physician, published data showing that diabetes
rates rose significantly in New Zealand following a massive hepatitis B
vaccine campaign in young children, and that diabetes rates also went up
sharply in Finland after three new childhood vaccines were introduced.
More pictures
of vaccine damage available to view at the
CDC
website
In fall 1997, two influential professional magazines featured articles
asking the question: Has the decrease of infectious diseases in childhood
through the mass use of vaccines been replaced with an increase in chronic
diseases such as diabetes and asthma? The Economist, a prestigious international
magazine read by world leaders in government, business and public policy,
and Science News, a magazine read by both health care 
professionals
and the general public, explored the reported links between vaccines and
chronic diseases in their November 22, 1997 issues.

Congressman
is calling for criminal penalties for any government agency that knew about
the dangers of thimerosal in vaccines and did nothing to protect American
children. Congressman Dan Burton (R-Indiana) during Congressional
Hearing: "You mean to tell me that since 1929, we've been using Thimerosal,
and the only test that you know of is from 1929, and every one of
those people had mennigitis, and they all died?" For nearly an hour, Burton
repeatedly asked FDA and CDC officials what they knew and when they knew
it. (Thimerosal contains a related mercury compound called ethyl mercury.
Mercury is a toxic metal that can cause immune, sensory, neurological,
motor, and behavioral dysfunctions.)
