 one of which will kill you. There is worse than that. There is a mollusk at the bottom of the sea who
bores a hole in its victim and injects it with a poison which includes 40
poisons. Every one of those poisons is enough to kill an elephant, and it’ s
got 40 of them. Now, would that serve any purpose from the viewpoint of
evolution? No, because one killer neuropeptide destroyer, or whatever it is,
is enough. It’ s got 40, so it’ s like a concentration of venom within one
specific life-form. We see that venom and that which is poisonous, then, is
present on the planet. It always causes pain. It doesn’ t just kill you. Even
the scorpion bite, you just don’ t go painlessly paralyzed; the pain is
agonizing. So, there is that which calibrates very low; which is poisonous,
instills pain, and its purpose is to kill; in contradistinction to that which is
dedicated to healing, the relief of pain; and they’re two contrasting ways to
go. Therefore, each thing is demonstrating the essence of that which it is. You say, “Does it have a purpose?” No, because purpose is teleological
thinking. Purpose is saying: because “this” seems to result in “that,” that is
the purpose  of “this”—to cause “that.” No, that is teleologic thinking,
which is a logical fallacy: the error of post hoc er go pr opter hoc —because a
thing follows, therefore it’ s caused by, or it’ s the purpose, of it. All we’re
saying is that each thing becomes the manifestation of that which it is. We’re up in a small town, and a workman came up with a truck, and
there in the back sat a little white dog. A little white dog got out of the truck
and came over to greet us. And it just wiggled all over with happiness. Its
tail was just going crazy, like this. It, like, falls in love with you instantly. It
just fell in love with us instantly. It just radiated love, lovingness. It
responded to love. It was looking for love. It seems to live in the world of
love. It looks for love, thrives on love, gives love, reflects love, and the tail
tells you. It just radiates that which it is. Now, isn’ t that strange that a dog at
500 is higher than a lot of human beings at 70? The dog kills nobody, kills
nothing, brings comfort, joy, and happiness, and reflects that. And therefore
I was surprised when I first calibrated the wag of a dog’ s tail and got it was
500. I said, “Whoa, that’ s higher than many of the people on the planet—
most of the people on the planet.” They won’ t approach you with trust,
love, caringness; nor do they respond to love. Most people are scared to
death of love, you know. You look at a person lovingly, with a prolonged,open glance, and a lot of people will shrink and get scared as ever. You try
that at a stop sign in the city of New York, you’ll get arrested. You look
over at the car next to you with love in your face, and they call the police on
the cell phone: “A  killer—he’ s staring in my windows, of ficer.” It would be
totally misinterpreted, wouldn’ t it? And I got the same kick when I noticed the kitty’ s purr. I calibrated the
kitty’ s purr, and it seemed to be interested in love, looking for love,
responsive to love, and seemed to live in a world of lovingness. So I can’ t
answer you why love comes through an animal, except that we think of
evolution in terms of intellect. We don’ t think in terms that lovingness could
be evolved without the presence of an intellect. In fact, that which has an
intellect is less likely to be loving than something that doesn’ t have an
intellect, a lot of times. Destiny Is Ultimately Perfect
When the soul manifests from the field of consciousness, does it carry a
charge, either negative or positive, that can be termed the “karma” of the
soul?<|eot_id|><|begin_of_text|>Summarize the following text section accurately and concisely. Maintain specific details and numerical information, and use anti-repetition mechanisms:

        Well, it helps to find out that karmically, you embezzled a lot out of a lot of
people, a lot of lifetimes. And it’ s payback time. That makes it a little easier
to handle, right there, and to see that it doesn’ t really matter. So, the
willingness to let every instant be the past, of course, closes the door to all
regret about the past. And the way one’ s consciousness evolves, then, is the
willingness to surrender everything as it arises. To live in the absolute,
radical reality of the moment of “now” means, like listening to music, to let
go of the last note and make room for the next. Each thing as it arises, you
can let go wanting to change it. The willingness to surrender this instant to
God as it arises means you don’ t live on the front of the wave, trying to
anticipate the future; nor do you live on the back of the wave, trying to
cling to the past. As it is now, it is spoken. As it is now, it is done. As it is
now, it is acted upon. And you let it be the way it was, huh. Is that simple
enough. It’ s walking on the edge of the knife. To walk precisely on the
edge of the knife is what allows you to go through sur gery without
anesthesia, because the instant you begin to resist the pain, it becomes
excruciating. It’ s only when you completely and totally surrender to it, not
call it “pain,” stop resisting, you become one with whatever the sensation is
without any calling it anything—all of a sudden, one transcends it and the
pain disappears as though being transported by angels to a dif ferent realm. I wonder if that degree of surrender actually brings angels around, or
something. “That’ s what happened: resist” (T rue). Okay. It was a definite
sensation, as though one was being lifted out of the body by angelic beings. They’re angelic because the exquisite grace, gentleness, and radiance of
Love was profound. It was as if one was being lifted out of the physicality,
and the physicality was going through all this sur gery, and chopping of f
your thumbs and various things were going on. And there was only a
feeling of infinite peace and joy. So, that surrendering, that intense
surrender, then. well, let’ s ask that again. “The intensity of the surrenderfinesses the Presence of God expressed as the angelic: resist” (T rue). Wow,
I didn’ t know that; suspected it but didn’ t know it for sure. So you see, kinesiology, as we use it, is a constant learning tool. It’ s just a
tool, that’ s all. It confirms, denies, tells you’re in the wrong direction. It’ s
like looking for Easter eggs—you’re warmer, you’re warmer, you’re
warmer—you know what I mean. You are warmer this way; no, this way,
this way. And it sort of leads your investigation. Now karmically, you’re
beset by certain problems and questions in your life, so they tend to press
for expression and for awareness. The past lives that probably are of any
significance in one’ s life, most people already intuit them. They will start
out as a joke—“Oh, some lifetime, I must have so-and-so”—usually starts
out as a joke. They don’ t want anybody to think they believe in karma, so
they say, “Well, some lifetime I must have been a pickpocket. ” I was a
pickpocket in France one time. Anyway. I sort of knew that all along. You’ll
find that you sort of intuit, or people will mention to you, you know,
“You’re like an old farmer, for God’ s sake, the way you walk around and
look down at the ground. ” You know, you just sort of knew you’d been a
farmer a lot of lifetimes, you know what I’m sayin’. It’s like one is very close to consciousness. What’ s the value and the
significance of it. The value and significance is that it may recontextualize
your spiritual work in this lifetime in a way that is less painful, facilitate it,
and broaden one’ s understanding of the evolution of consciousness itself. It’s unlikely that you just came out of the blue, out of some kind of
nothingness and appeared on this planet, calibrating at 430. I mean, it’ s just
not a likelihood. The other interesting observation is that without some kind of
understanding of karma, there is no explanation of why it is that various
individuals already have a calibrated level of consciousness at the moment
of birth. How come this baby is born at 230, this one’ s born at


	romance	on	a	subconscious	level,
regardless	of	how	much	the	conscious	mind	protests	that	“we’d	love	to	meet
someone.”
Why? As	a	middle-aged	friend	of	mine	once	responded	when	I	asked	her	if
she	was	seeing	anyone,	“No. I	can’t	stand	who	I	become	when	I’m	in	a
relationship. I’d	rather	not	even	do	it.”	Once	you	see	that	in	every	relationship
you’ve	encountered	the	same	demon—your
own
—you	realize	that	until	you
deal	with	that	demon,	you’ll	never	find	true	love. For	the	demon	blocks	it. This	demon	takes	various	forms	in	your	arsenal	of	self-sabotage:	insecurity,
lack	of	boundaries,	jealousy,	dishonesty,	anger,	control,	neediness,	or
whatever	other	form	of	personal	inauthenticity	that	leads	you	time	and	time
again	to	either	attract	the	bad	ones	or	blow	it	with	the	good	ones. It	is	naïve	to
underestimate	that	demon’s	power.After	one	of	her	romances	went	desperately	sour,	a	friend	once	told	me,
“Another	one	like	that	would	kill	me.”	I	understood	what	she	meant,	and	so
can	most	people. There	comes	a	time	when	you	feel	like	the	high	of	romance
isn’t	worth	the	pain	of	its	demise;	when	the	risk	of	a	romantic	disaster
outweighs	the	thrill	of	the	ride. And	that	time	is	…	you	guessed	it	... more
often	than	not	around	midlife. Why? First	of	all,	because	it	often	takes	that	long	to	have	experienced
enough	disasters	that	you’d	do	anything	possible	to	make	sure	you	avoid
another	one. Also,	you’ve	reached	a	point	when	you	don’t	have	as	hard	a	time
overriding	your	hormones. Your	body	isn’t	so	upset	anymore	to	hear	you	say
that	you’re	taking	a	break. It	rather	welcomes	the	chance	for	some	downtime. The	yearning	for	love	is	still	there,	but	the	yearning	alchemizes	into
something	less	personal. Not	less	personal	in	the	sense	that	you	don’t	love	an
intimate	conversation	or	having	a	warm	body	hold	you	close;	just	less
personal	in	the	sense	that	life	has	forced	you	to	see	beyond	the	illusion	that
any	human	being	can	erase	all	your	pain. You	realize	the	romantic	mythology
we	were	all	brought	up	with	is	like	a	computer	file	that	has	been	corrupted. Until	that	file	has	been	removed	and	replaced	by	another,	no	matter	what	we
do,	our	ultimate	outcome	will	be	tainted. This	doesn’t	mean	you	don’t	still	crave	love—the	craving	itself	never	stops. As	a	matter	of	fact,	at	just	the	point	when	you’ve	had	enough,	the	very	fact
that	you
have
	had	enough	is	what	causes	your	breakthrough	into	the
awareness	that	sets	you	free. As	it’s	said	in	Alcoholics	Anonymous,	every
problem	comes	bearing	its	own	solution. It’s	often	when	love	has	hurt	you	the
most	that	you	come	to	see	how	and	why	you	set	yourself	up	for	all	that	pain. So	you	go	on	a	fast. All	of	a	sudden,	your	phone	stops	ringing. Like	Ellen
Burstyn,	you’re	forced	to	cleanse	your	palate. Burstyn	came	to	understand	that	her	negative	relationship	patterns	were
reflections	of	her	childhood	wounds,	which	she’d	have	to	reenact	until	she
healed	them. So	do	we	all. Until	that	work	is	done	on	some	level,	there	is	no
getting	off	the	wheel	of	suffering. Our	subconscious	minds	aren’t	wrong	in
cutting	us	off	from	love	and	sex	for	a	while,	as	the	work	is	being	done	and
deeply	absorbed	into	our	system. The	fast	isn’t	something	we	do	to	isolate;
it’s	something	we	do	to	survive. First	there	was	childhood,	and	the	wounding	that	occurred	then. Then	there
was	young	adulthood,	and	all	the	disasters	that	occurred	because	of	your
childhood	wounds. And	then	there’s	midlife,	when	it’s	time	to	deal	at	last	withwhat	happened	in	childhood
and
	in	young	adulthood. Midlife	is	the	time	to
heal,	so	our	hearts	can	finally	be	delivered	from	the	past	and	released	to	the
fullness	of	what	love	can	be	right	now. When	you	see	a	lot	of	middle-aged	individuals	at	personal-growth
seminars,	it’s	not	because	they’re	done	with	love	and	this	is	their	only
entertainment	now. Often,	they	have	memories	that	might	shock	the	younger
people	around	them. Whenever	you	see	an	older	person,	you	might	want	to
subtract	40	years,	and	that	will	tell	you	how	old	he	or	she	was	in	the	’60s. But
the	new	midlife	is	not	a	time	to	simply	dwell	on	our	memories	of	love	and	the
demons	we	encountered	there;	it’s	time	to	develop	the	skill	to	send	the
demons	back	to	hell. Sometimes	you	wonder	if	you	missed	your	window. Ellen	Burstyn	writes
that	she	remembered	feeling,
Now	that	I	know	I	am	ready	at	last	to	love	well,
I	fear	it	is	too	late. With	that	sentiment,	she	echoes	the	fears	of	many. Yet
that’s	just	a	typical,	last-ditch	effort	of	the	demon	to	deter	us,	a	common	pain
that	often	pops	up	in	our	heads	in	that	one	minute	before	the	miracle. Once	your	mind	and	heart	are	realigned—when	the	broken	self	you	became
in	childhood	is	no	longer	manifesting	broken	relationships—then	you’re
ready	at	last	to	love	again. Compassion,	integrity,	truthfulness,	generosity,	and
graciousness	become	key	elements	in	your	new	romantic	skill	set. You	come
to	see	what	you	did	wrong	in	the	past	and	to	forgive	yourself,	to	understand
other	people’s	actions	and,	where	necessary,	forgive	them,	too. You	are
humbled	at	last	into	your	purity	and	grace. In	the	Epilogue	of	her	book,	Burstyn	describes	how	she	finally	met	the	man
of	her	dreams,	and	I	finished	the	last	page	thinking,
Now	I	want	to	read	the
sequel! I’d	read	hundreds	of	pages	about	the	horrors	of	her	past;	now	I	wanted
to	know	what	finally	getting	it	right	would	look	and	feel	like. Just	as	certain	foods	need	to	marinate,	our	romantic	skills	need	years
sometimes	to	come	together	in	all	their	richness. I	asked	Burstyn	what	it’s	like
now,	to	finally	feel	that	she	loves	and	is	loved	well. “What’s	different?”	I
asked	her. “For	starters,”	she	said,	“there	is	much	more	respect	and	much	less
judgment. Conversations	don’t	escalate	into	arguments,	and	arguments	don’t
escalate	into	violence.”	She	paused. “And	now	I	know	how	to	let	a	man	be.”
So	in	our	youth,	we	often	had	love	but	didn’t	know	what	to	do	with	it. Then
sometimes,	after	what	can	be	a	very	long	time	in	the	romantic	wilderness,	we
find	love	again	or	love	finds	us. And	this	time,	we
do
	know	what	to	do. Thatwilderness—that	fast—was	not	the	end


 bad an overwhelm. The only thing we are ever
going to have to handle is the same energy, the subtle,
inner feelingness, and then let go of resisting it, surren
der to it, and welcome it. Saying yes to it releases its
energy. After doing this for a few minutes, or maybe
even an hour (it depends on how adept one is---'some
people get it right away and some need a little prac
tice), a person gets where it is and no longer has to HANDLIN G MAJ0 R C RISES 243
even handle or experience the emotions as such. What
was fear disappears and is not felt as fear any longer. Anger is not felt as angriness; guilt is not felt as guilti
ness per se. The emotion is felt as an overwhelming;
upcoming flow of a negative energy that is actually
generic and nameless. When we stop naming, labeling, or calling the energy
something, we no ~onger have to handle it. When we
stop putting constructions and interpretations of the
mind onto it, when we let go of wanting to make it
right or wrong or the event or ourselfwrong, when we
bypass all that, we then get the feelingness ofit and see
that we do not have to handle all that. We do not have
to handle the thought or even the emotions ofit. All we
have to do is handle the same upcoming energy. Can we do that. Yes, we can because we are doing
it all the time anyway. It is a more effective technique
than wildly racing around in our mind trying to figure
it out, or running around inside our feelings and trying
to handle the catastrophic emotions because, at the
same time, this letting go of the energy field is happen
ing anyway. It is helpful to become conscious of it, to cut
through the confusion and get right to the essential
point of what is effective. Dealing with the thoughts
and the events with all the reasoning, logic, and figur
ing it out, and dealing with all the probing into the psy
chological significances is entertaining but thoroughly
ineffective. It is a waste of time and energy and really
delays the recovery. The healing of an acute burn of the hand takes only
a matter of seconds. How long should it take the bleed244 HEALING AND RECOVERY
ing to stop ifwe have cut off a thumb. It actually takes
a matter of seconds. For example, when I unintention
ally cut my thumb off, I instantly used this technique,
and the thumb bled exactly eight drops. The instant
releasing of it, the releasing of the pain, and the letting
go of the resistance of the catastrophic overwhelm
allowed the bleeding to stop instantaneously. Those people who have tried this technique have
had the same experience on the physical level, demon
strating the truth of this. It can be done with any emo
tion. One goes into the emotion, then past the emotion,
and stops calling it anything. One gets in touch with
the generic energy of what is coming up. It seems to
come right up through the solar plexus, or it seems to
be everywhere. One goes right to where the experi
ence is being experienced. One has to use a little disci
pline with the mind and refuse to have the mind fool
oneself. The person says, "Well, I'm experiencing the
death of that person out there:' One is not experienc
ing it 'out there'; one is experiencing it 'in here'. Where
is that. It is the same place where one always experi
ences experience-within the feeling self. The only problem is one's own feelingness. The real
problem is not actually the death of someone 'out
there'. A person is up against the energy of one's own
feelingness, the overwhelm ofthe energy ofthat. Ifone
directs their attention and focuses it there with preci
sion, it aborts what could be a prolonged and very
painful experience; it is brought to an abrupt end. What happens if we keep on letting go of this
energy. What happens if we welcome it. What if we
say, "What an opportunity to decompress all this". HANDLING MAJOR CRISES 245
What will be the experience then. It will be relatively
brief compared to what it would be with an ordinary
state ofconsciousness. Suddenly, the energy field stops. It is as though, when the pressure gauge on the com
pression chamber reaches a certain point, the overflow
stops, and then we experience a state of peace. Right
out of acute catastrophe come profound states of
peace. If someone has been through this, they under
stand what is meant here. The core ofreliefis sur
rendering the energy at great depth. Suddenly, all the agony stops and instead, there is
almost a silence, an infmite presence, an infinite state
of peace, something that may be greater than any expe
rience a person has had in their life previously. They are
not the same when they come out on the other side of
it. From then on, they are lighter, freer, and less subject
to pain within their own emotional experience. Clinically, what usually happens is that the person
now sighs with relief. They realize that life is going to
continue and they can live with it. As bad as it seemed,
somehow they can survive. Peace continues for a vari
able period of time, and then a wave of the emotional
ity comes back. It tends to return in waves, with peri
ods of relief in between. When the wave comes back,
they welcome it again and try to release as much out
of the pressure as they can before the valve closes
again:They welcome it as a very valuable opportunity,
and since it may not happen very many times in life, it
is oneto be treasured. The value ofit comes onlywhen
a person is really on the other side of the experience
and can look back on it with the wisdom that has been
gained and understand that the mind is not going to be 246 HEALING AND RECOVERY
of any real help in the experience. This is because the
mind looks in the wrong direction and says, "If I could
only change the circumstances of the event out there,
then I would feel all right. "There are some good clinical
examples of that. There was the case of a woman who received a
telegram saying her son was killed in Vietnam. As a
result, she stopped talking, sat in a rocking chair near a
window, and just kept rocking back and forth, staring
numbly out the window. She was in the state called
apathy,with complete loss ofenergy. The world looked
hopeless, and to her, God was dead. She rocked back
and forth in this hopeless state, not responding verbally
to her family. She refused to eat, barely slept, with naps
perhaps during the night, and just stared blankly out
the window in a state of total apathy. We found that
certain changes had taken place in her brain chemistry
as a result of this, with the neurotransmitters being
depleted. In the meantime, the family did not know what to
do and was very disturbed. About ten days later, the
family received another telegram from the U. S. Department of Defense saying that it was all a mistake,
that the son had not been killed in action, that it was
another serviceman with the same name and an ID
number that was just one digit different, and there had
been a computer error. The family told the woman,
"Mother, Mother, he's not dead. " She went right on
rocking, staring blankly out the window as though she
did not even hear them. So, changing the circumstances in the outer world
is not necessarily going to change the upset because it HANDLING MAJOR CRISES 247
has started a process. It is the process that has to be
handled. It is not the events that have happened out
there that have to be accepted, because that is just
what we cannot do. We cannot accept the circum
stances that have happened in our life. What we can do
is accept and surrender to the fact that one has to bite
the bullet and be with the situation right now. For
example, ifour leg is caught in the bear trap and there
is no way out, we surrender to the experiencing
itself-the necessity to sit through it, face it, handle it,
and surrender to the experiencing of the experience,
using the techniques already presented. To be effective, one pays little attention to the mind
because the mind really has no solution to the prob
lem. The mind says, "If only we could change those
external circumstances. "This is where people's experi
ences with prayer often come in. Not knowing what to
pray for, they may come out of it with bitterness
because they were praying in the wrong direction. Very
often the prayer goes in the direction of "Please undo
that, please bring joy back to life. Please bring my
thumb back; please change what is happening out
there. " Prayer in that direction is very likely to be inef
fective because the form of the prayer is like, "Dear

do well in their studies, nor do they grow at the same rate as their peers. Even these multiple problems arising at a young age have been relieved by the Gerson
Therapy. Obviously, the treatment has to be modified to suit the special needs of the patients:
they are given less carrot and apple juice, more green leaf juice. Potatoes are cut out in favor of
vegetables and raw foods, and little fruit is given, mainly apples and melons. Insulin is continued
as needed. However, most patients are able to cut down considerably on the dosage used. One
particular 12-year-old was able to decrease his insulin requirement by 2/3rds of the original dose,
he became an “A” student and even caught up with his classmates’ growth. In other words his
condition had greatly improved. However, he could not be cured, i.e., totally freed from his need
for insulin, for it was impossible to restore the destroyed Islets of Langerhans, which should
have produced the necessary natural insulin. This boy’s Gerson medication was augmented by
chromium piccolinate to boost his insulin output, but it did not come back to normal. (see Part III
of this Chapter, pg. 64). Caution:  once a patient has been started on dialysis, the Gerson Therapy cannot be used! Age Onset Diabetes Mellitus  is curable with the Gerson Therapy. About 85% of patients
suffering from this condition actually produce an adequate amount of insulin. The problem is
that this insulin is unable to reach the relevant receptors within the cells, for they are blocked by
excess cholesterol. As far as the majority of Diabetes Mellitus patients are concerned, they benefit from the
Gerson program that, with its exclusion of animal products, is free from cholesterol. More
importantly, the restored enzyme activity together with the high Omega 3 content of the flax seed
oil is able to clear the cholesterol from the body tissues. In most patients excess cholesterol gets
cleared out within a week or two, even though they no longer take their cholesterol-lowering
drugs. It also takes only a short time before the available natural insulin reaches its destination in
the cells; the excess glucose (sugar) in the bloodstream is reduced to normal, so that there is no
further need for insulin supplementation. These patients are also restricted at the start of the therapy in their intake of carrot and apple Copyright © Charlotte Gerson, 2007. All rights reserved.

juices, potato-rich meals, and oatmeal with fruit for breakfast. They, too, are supplemented with
chromium piccolinate, but can drop this provided their blood sugar remains normal. Case History:  Our most severely ill diabetic patient was R.H., a 41-year-old man weighing
over 300 pounds. His blood sugar ran over 340 (normal below 120), and was uncontrollable
with insulin and/or other medications. He had had a heart attack at age 38 and was left with
dangerously high blood pressure—240/110 (normal 120/80), also uncontrolled by drugs. In
addition he suffered from gout. If he omitted his gout medication for a single day, he had to
endure an excruciatingly painful attack. On the Gerson Therapy he was eating mainly vegetables, raw salads with green juices, and
his diet was restricted to one potato a day; instead of oatmeal in the morning he received a plateful
of mixed raw vegetables. He also used the usual enemas and took chromium piccolinate along
with the other Gerson medication. Insulin had to be continued at the start of the treatment as
needed, the requirement being checked by regular blood tests. R.H. lost 1-2 pounds a day without ever being hungry. On top of his three regular meals he
was given a plate of raw vegetables for snacks in his room. (Non-diabetic patients receive a fruit
plate to eat as snacks during the night or between meals, should they feel hungry.) His vegetable
plate contained carrot and celery strips, tomatoes, cauliflower florets, and radishes. His gout
medication was discontinued immediately after starting the treatment, without bringing on an
attack. At the end of 10 weeks the patient’s blood sugar was normal and he was able to discontinue
the insulin injections. His weight had come down by almost 100 pounds, and at 6’2” he weighed
an almost normal 210 pounds. Finally his blood pressure had also dropped to a normal level
without the need for drugs. Part II
Confronting Chronic Conditions
Unfortunately the diseases described so far are not the only ones inflicted on us by the faulty,
health-destroying dietary habits of modern civilization. Nowadays people truly dig their graves
with their teeth, not realizing the harm they are doing to themselves. And as various serious
diseases have crept up on us silently, becoming part of our way of life—and death, we tend to take
them for granted and no longer question their growing prevalence, or why they cut short the lives
of so many people in their prime. Now is the moment to ask questions, listen to the answers and change our lives for the better.

www.thegersonway.comthe right one. And this applies as much to the killer diseases we have reviewed as to the many
chronic degenerative conditions that can drag on for many years, causing much pain, discomfort,
depression and poor quality of life. Modern medicine can ease the pain with allopathic drugs,
but is unable to eliminate the basic problem; indeed many people believe that their arthritis or
osteoporosis is incurable. But they are wrong. And although the Gerson Therapy’s best-known
achievement is its successful healing of cancer, it also has an extraordinary track record in dealing
with so-called incurable chronic conditions. Chronic Immune-Deficiency Diseases
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
This condition is also known as ME, standing for Myalgic Encephalomyelitis. Along with
many other diseases caused by inadequate immune competence, it is spreading dramatically. Sometimes referred to as “Yuppie Syndrome,” it used to be known as the Epstein-Barr disease. That was a more accurate description, since its cause was found to be the body’s inability to
overcome the Epstein-Barr viral infection. As there are no medical treatments to overcome
viruses—antibiotics are useless against them—the disease is considered not only incurable but
also untreatable. In due course, with people suffering from worsening symptoms of weakness, inability
to concentrate, aches and muscle pains, it was discovered that the underlying cause was not
exclusively the Epstein-Barr virus, viz. that this virus had possibly mutated into other forms, and
that perhaps other viruses were also involved. At this stage the disease was re-named as Chronic
Fatigue Syndrome, referring to one of its main symptoms. Unfortunately the change of name still
left it ‘incurable.’
Case History: What we already know about the Gerson Therapy’s ability to rebuild a
damaged, severely deficient immune system should make it clear why it is so effective against
this condition. One patient’s dramatic response to the therapy illustrates the process well. It
concerns W.D., a middle-aged engineer who after twenty years was forced to leave his job, when
the viral infection hit him. He was given the California ‘Disabled Driver’ plaque, although there
was some doubt as to whether he was able to drive at all. At times he was even unable to find his
own car, could not balance his checkbook, and complained of “the black cheesecloth that falls
over me.” On the full therapy, in his own words he soon felt “not as well as my colleagues, as I
had wished, but much better, with new energy, a brighter outlook, and feeling again like 25 at age
55! My coordination, eyesight and hearing are so good—I can do everything today that I couldn’t
do at 30.”Copyright © Charlotte Gerson, 2007. All rights reserved. This material may not be reproduced in any medium, print or electronic without prior written permission from the author.Page 5 8Healing the Gerson Way—Defeating Cancer and Other Chronic Diseases
www.thegersonway.comMultiple Sclerosis
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is supposed to be an autoimmune disease. In such diseases it is
claimed that the patient’s immune system attacks its own tissues and causes lesions or other
damage. In MS, it is stated, “Infiltrating lymphocytes ( white blood corpuscles), predominantly T-
cells and macrophages, degrade the myelin sheath of nerves.” 1 Nerves are conductors of electrical
impulses and require insulation in the form of myelin sheaths, in


 substances. Hundreds more accumulate in the liver, brain,
kidney, pancreatic, bowel and heart tissue, obstructing proper cellular
respiration and causing inflammation and damage to these tissues. Many contaminants oxidize and become airborne thus causing liver and
lung damage and cancer. Many more bond with each other to form radical
substances like nitrosamines, which highly accelerate tumor formation and
growth. A large number of the above-cited pesticides, herbicides, fungicides,
petrochemicals, etc., are hormone disrupters. They inhibit or stimulate the
production of hormones or steroids, like estrogen and testosterone. Benzene levels in air, water and food have skyrocketed. Benzene is a
known carcinogen, which is used in solvents and food additives, and emitted
from oil refineries, gas stations, rubber (tire) manufacturing plants and diesel
powered vehicles. An astronomical amount of carcinogenic substances are
released into our air and our water from tobacco smoke, gas and especially
diesel emissions, body shops, airports, highways, railways, subways, most
industries, boating, petro-production plants, etc.Radiation is another high source of our cancers. Harmful radiation is
found in dental offices and hospitals (with use of x-rays, nuclear medicine,
and other processes), around high power wires, TV sets, microwave ovens,
cathode-ray computer monitors and most medical diagnostic equipment—
including Cat Scans, MRIs, mam-mogram and x-ray equipment. Cancer has now reached epidemic proportions, estimated to be in every
other person in the U.S.. According to Kathleen Deoul in her book
Cancer
Cover-Up {Genocide}:
 “One American dies of cancer every minute—the
equivalent of crashing three fully loaded 747s every day! But it doesn’t have
to happen.”
We live in a world of excitotoxins, also called “neurotoxins,” which are
affecting our relationship with the outside world and with ourselves. We have
literally surrounded ourselves with cancer-causing agents—we live in them
and around them, we drink, eat and inject them, and we are constantly putting
them on our skin. Our houses are full of formaldehyde and other potentially
toxic and carcinogenic substances released from carpets, Formica-type
(laminate) cabinets, plywood, glue, curtains, synthetic garments, etc. Your
clothes can be full of toxins, especially if they are dry cleaned. Perchloroethylene or “perc” —the chemical used in dry cleaning—is
extremely toxic. Spills at dry cleaners can necessitate the removal of the
building and the dirt beneath it. Plastics are another server of toxins and potential carcinogens. Vinyls
(phthalates) are found in PVC pipes, toys, baby teething objects, baby bottles
and building materials. Never buy distilled water in plastic containers. As
distilled water is void of substances, it therefore creates diffusion, pulling
other substances (like minerals and chemicals) into it. Even if we stopped using all chemicals today, it would still be too late. The human species remains steeped in ignorance as it continues to destroy its
own home. No other species does this. Big industry and automobiles are
some of the worst polluting offenders. Many factories that pour millions of
toxic particles daily into the air do not want to use pollution control devices
because of the expense. Although a lot of good research is going on by many
honest individuals, this information seems to get suppressed or buried by a
monetary-based society. But life has no price tag. Everyone must pitch in and
help clean up this world of ours. Become as free of toxic chemicals as possible.MODULE 4.6
Protecting Yourself From Carcinogens

We are surrounded by and consume hundreds of carcinogenic substances
each day. These substances act as igniters and accelerators. They damage
tissue and inspire immune responses like gasoline enrages a fire. Many of
these are neurotoxins, which attach themselves to your nervous system and
endocrine gland system. This creates hypoactivity, or lowering of the
function of these systems, which can create a multitude of symptoms
including difficulty in breathing, heart arrhythmia, MS and Lou Gehrig’s
disease. You must take full responsibility for your own health. Even our
government has little concern about the levels of environmental toxicity
Politicians don’t seem to realize that they are affected just as everyone else is. Why do you think cancer is soaring? The truth has been well hidden by those
who wish to gain from all this. However, they will eventually succumb to
these toxins, just as everyone else is. PROTECT YOURSELF! 1
. Live closer to nature, away from factories, power lines and heavy traffic. 2
. Fill your house with live plants. Philoden-drons (philodendron spp.) are
known to absorb formaldehyde, ammonia, benzene, trichloroethylene
and hydrates, as well as xylene. The following plants are great indoor
plants and will help clean indoor air:
Philodendron (Philodendron spp.) Spider Plants (Chlorophytum comosum)
Bamboo plant (Rhapis excelsea)
Corn Plant (Dracaena fragrans)
English Ivy (Hederá helix)
Bromeliads (Cryp tan thus spp.) Chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum spp.) House-type Palms
Ficus TreeGolden Pothos (Epipremnum aureum)

. Always wash your fruits and vegetables before you eat them. Use a
vegetable wash or fresh lemon juice with hydrogen peroxide. 4
. Eat an 80 to 100 percent raw food diet. Eat fruits even more so than
vegetables. Fruits are full of antioxidant and astringent properties. They
will keep your lymphatic (immune) system clean and moving. They also
enhance the strength of a cell, especially brain and nerve cells. 5
. In traffic, keep your car’s outside air vent closed. Make sure your car’s
exhaust system is not leaking and in good order. 6
. Use 100 percent natural hygiene products (soaps, shampoos, etc.). Read
the labels. If they have chemicals in them, don’t use them. (If you can’t
pronounce it—you probably don’t want it.) What you put on your skin
absorbs into your blood stream and circulates throughout your body. This can damage your brain, heart, kidneys and especially your liver. 7
. Avoid dry cleaning, as the chemicals used are extremely toxic. 8
. Use common sense with everything you do and use. It’s your body and it
carries you around this world, as any vehicle would. If it fails—you’re
stuck. Chemicals can be extremely dangerous. 9
. Avoid cooking. If you must cook, steam your food in stainless steel. Always use stainless steel cookware. 10
. Use and clean your air conditioners and air filters. Use the natural, high-
filtration-type that removes 1-micron to 3-micron size particles. 11
. Use R/O (reverse-osmosis) or steam-distilled water. Note: Avoid storing
distilled water in plastic containers. Distilled water will leach some of the
chemicals from the plastic into itself. 12
. Drink from and use glass as much as possible. Plastic can be toxic to
you. 13
. Avoid walking for exercise near high traffic areas. Walk in a safe park or
wooded area instead. 14
. Avoid florescent lighting as much as possible. Be aware of what you eat,
drink, breathe and what you put on your skin, as this is how you bring
the outside world in. MODULE 4.7

 take hot
water and enter it when it is as hot as he can stand it. The
head must never be washed in either cold or luke-warm
water, but only in water that is  so hot that he feels he is
scalding his scalp. Cold wate r will strengthen the brain
but will retain its superfluities. It will chil l it and all the
nerves originating in the brain, and all the movements
will become sluggish. It may cause hemiplegia, spasm or
contracture of the hand, re quiring special care. Luke-
warm water will also cool the brain and soften it, making
the movements and the sensations sluggish, but hot water
hardens the substance of the brain, removes its
superfluities, strengthens its nature and all its movements
and sensations. And it is pr oper that a man should sleep
after leaving his bath. SAID GALEN : SLEEP AFTER BATHING
I cannot see a better way to boil what has been readied
to boil, and to melt and heat what has been made ready to
melt, than by sleeping after l eaving the bath. But sleeping
in the bathhouse is very bad. It occasionally causes a
heartache through the contradi ctory effects of sleep and
bathroom heat: the heat of th e bath will draw the natural
heat outward to the surface of the body, while sleep
forces the heat deep inside the body. One must be very
careful to abstain from dr inking cold water soon after
leaving the bath. Galen said : There were men who drank
cold water after leaving the bath and they chilled their
kidneys and swelled up their bellies. Therefore it is
advisable for a man to suffer thirst until his body cools
off and loses the heat that the organs absorb from the bath
and then he should drink. If his thirst does not permit him
to wait, then let him drink water mixed with a syrup of
citron rind, mastic or rose. Th e drinking of barley beer
made with pomegranate seeds and sugar tart, myrrh, aloe
wood and cloves, harms one after the bath. But if he waits
after the bath until its warmth leaves the body he may
take it, and it is helpful. I refer to this beer or to the
previously mentioned syrup. DISCHARGE FROM THE NOSE
There are many who take lig htly the liquid discharge
from the nose as in their i gnorance they do not understand
what usually develops from it if it goes down to the nose,
or the hoarseness and coughi ng if it goes down to the
trachea. It is best that one be  careful and watchful of such
discharges in winter and summertime and put on his
clothes while he is still in  the bathroom. And one should
always protect his head from the strong cold that comes
with a discharge and also from the strong heat that
liquefies the congealed superf luities in the brain, that
flow down afterward and cause the acute catarrhs. And all
the discharges, the warm and the cold ones, usually run
down into the cavities of the lungs and fill them up,
because of the abundance of the moisture that flows down
and because of the weakness of the receiving organ. They
weaken the expelling force that would remove them by
coughing and thus asphyxiate the man and he dies. Or
they create a pause which is a shortness of breath in the
lying position. Sometimes they flow down to the cavity of
the stomach and cause intestinal irritation and this is a
disease hard to cure. Occasi onally they flow down to the
joints and produce arthritic pain. They may also go down
to the internal organs and their cavities and produce an exudate in the organ, exudate of  the pleura, exudate of the
lungs, exudate of the liver, exudate of the stomach or an
exudate of other organs. This explains how careful we have
to be with these discharges. STRENGTHENING THE BRAIN
Caution with these discharges consists in being careful not
to overheat or chill the head, as we have mentioned above, and
avoiding to eat that which fills up the head, such as milk or
gas-producing seeds like beans and lentils. One should avoid
sleep right after his meal and especially if he eats at night. One
should avoid taking warm and intoxicating drinks, because
their consumption affects the mind swiftly. One should also
strengthen the brain by smelling balsam and flowers according
to their strength and the season. One of the favorite
medications to strengthen the brain is to grind cloves until
pulverized and place them across half of the forehead during
the winter. One should also anoint his forehead during the
winter with saw-leafed centaury oil, which will strengthen it. But when it is very warm one should dip his head in rose water
and in nilufar and he should dust his head lightly with nutmeg
powder which has been finely ground. FOOD DETERIORATION
One must avoid, at any place and at any time,
partaking of a food which has begun to decompose even slightly or become turbulent, malodorous, slightly warm [if it is naturally cold] or decayed, like fruits prepared in vinegar, small fish in brine, sour milk and like products. They are materials that produce fever and are like deadly poisons. And the good physicians warn against eating food that has remained overnight and meat a day after it has been boiled, because it has begun to deteriorate, even though it does not immediately appear so. And one should eat preferably sweet f oods because it is the sweets
that nourish, according to Galen. One should also prefer drinking water that is sweet and cold. And if the sweet
foods have deteriorated and become inedible, one should improve their taste by making them a little sour with materials that give a salty and astringent taste, like
cooking in gooseberry juice or  acid or lemon or barley
brine, sumac, quince or pomegranates. All these foods, when they are devoid of sweetness, also lack useful nutriments. First of all they  are not nauseating and some
of them liquefy the mucosa in the stomach and increase the appetite, such as a salty  soup. Some fight putrefaction
and cause dryness, like the foods to which vinegar and lemon have been added. Some of them will strengthen the
stomach and close its openi ng, like sumac, pomegranate
seeds, quince and gooseberry ju ice. One can rely on these
foods as much as possible. AVOID SUDDEN CHANGES
Habit and regularity are great  principles for keeping
well and recovering from illness. It is not proper to
change one's habits in health at once, neither in food, in
drinks nor in intercourse, ba th or exercise. You should
stick to your habits. And ev en if your habit is in
contradiction to medical law,  you must not separate from
it, but adjust to the law gr adually and for a prolonged
time so that the change will not be felt. And a man must
never change his habit all of a sudden. If he does he is
bound to get sick. But the acute ly ill must not deviate
from their habits, during the course of their disease they
must not change their customs, even with the best of
intentions. GOOD AND BAD GARMENTS
It is well known that there are animals whose meat is
constitutionally contradict ory to the nutrition of men, such as the meat of the wo lf and the fox. And some, like
lamb, is very fit. So it is with the various furs for
garments. The best for human garments are sheep's hides
and the most dangerous are fox's hides. The intelligent
physicians have mentioned it a nd this is the truth. About
this [your] servant noticed that the garment which the
Arabs call kirtas is very bad, but the garment called in
Arabic alsanjab [squirrel] is praised by the physicians. Then remember that the fur of cats is dangerous to wear,
or even to inhale their odor, therefore beware of them and
their odor. However, it has b een advised to inhale the
aroma of pigeons and to have them always in the house,
because they insure one agai nst neurological afflictions
like hemiplegia, spasms, cramps and tremor of the limbs. As long as he sees pigeons before him he will be
protected from the above illn esses, provided he removes
their droplets and does not al low the latter to collect,
because they pollute the air and spoil it. Equally good
against neurological diseases is the eating of pigeon meat. THE GAZELLE, RABBIT AND WILD ASS
The best of game is the gazelle. The rabbit also has
benefits that have been pr oven by experience. Eating its
brain helps against head noise s, and its meat in general helps against head noises and neurological illnesses. The
rabbit's hide warms much and helps in neurological
diseases, particularly in old men. And the wild ass has the
property of greatly strengthen ing the vision, as has been
proven by experience. When one  eats


 still fecls an
urge for further gratifica - tion. This is largely
dueto anxicty, to the knowledge  that a constant
supply of food  is uncenain. There - fore eat as
much as you can whilc you can. lt is due,  also,  to
the knowlcdgc  that,  in an insecure world,  pleasure
is uncertain. Therefore  the immcdiate  pleasure of
eating must be cxploited to  the full, even  though  it
<loes  violence  to the digestion. Human desirc tencls to be insatiable. We are so
anxious for pleasurc that wc can ncvcr get enough
of it. Vi/e stimulate our scnse organs until thcy

continue  they  must have stronger anc.l stronger
stimulants. In self - defense  the body  gets  ill from
the strain,  but the brain  wants  to go on and on. The  brain  is in pursuit
59 THE  WISDOM  OF INSECURITY
of happiness, and because the brain is much more
concerned about che futurc than the present, it
con- ceives happiness as the guaramee of an
indefinitely  long future of pleasures. Yct the brain
also  knows  that il does not have an indefinitely
long future, so that, to be happy, it must try Lo
crowd ali the pleas - ures of Paradise and eternity
into thc span of a few  ycars. This is why modern civilization is in almost
every  respect  a vicious circle. lt is insatiabl y

LOperpetuar frustra - cion. As we have secn, che
root of this frustration is that we live for Lhc
future, and the future is an ab- straction, a rational
inference from experience, which  exists only for
thc brain. The "primary conscious - ness," thc
basic mind which knows reality rather than  ideas
about it, does not know che futurc. lt lives com•

ac- curate  and rcliablc  (e.g.,  "cvcryone  will die")
that  the future assumes a high clcgrce  of reality -so
high  that  che prcsenL  loses  its value. But thc future  is still not here,  and cannot
become
a part  of experienced  realiLy  until  it is present. Since  what  we know  of the future  is made  up of

or something. ”
“Who’s Barbara W alters. ”
“Yes, I cried. But I don’t anymor e. I try not to, anyway. I
loved him, and he loved me. The last thing he said to me
was ‘thank you. ’”
“And what did you say. ”
“I don’t r emember. ”
“Maybe you said ‘you’r e welcome’. ”
There was a call fr om ne xt door, “ Lupe, L upe. ”
Jonathan, clearly upset, tur ned away as L upe’s
grandmother walk ed to Jonathan’s door. “Lupe,” her grandmother said, “time to go to the
hospital. ”
“Already. I hate going ther e,” she said. Jonathan tur ned back to her. “Why does your grandfather
have to go. ”
Lupe tur ned away. “See you tomor row. ”
When L upe enter ed the apartment, her grandpar ents
were standing in the foyer, alr eady pr epared to leave. “ Put
on your jack et, Lupe. I know it’s har d. None of us lik es to
go. ”
Lupe went into her r oom and put on a lightweight jack et. Then they all lef t the apartment in silence and moved
outside to the bus stop. Her grandfather was using a walk er. “Why ar en’t you in your wheelchair. ” L upe ask ed him,
adjusting his collar. “It’s too much tr ouble, with the bus,” he said. When they r eached the hospital, they enter ed a long line
of exhausted-looking patients waiting for their appointment
paperwork. The air conditioner was br oken, as wer e the
water fountains. Everyone was complaining. Once they got their paperwork, they sat in another lar ge,
penlik e area that was even hotter than the ﬁrst. L upe and
her grandpar ents sat in straight-back chairs against the
wall. Ther e wer e dozens of families, many speaking Spanish,
others talking languages L upe couldn’t place. One man held his head in his hands; several childr en
moaned in a par ent’s ar ms, as if something inside of them
were broken. “When can we get in. ” a young girl ask ed her mother,
but her mother shook her head and said wearily, “I don’t
know, honey. Please sit still. ”
Lupe tur ned her gaze to the vending machine and tried
to imagine what she’d buy if she had all the money in the
world. But even the vending machines wer en’t tempting
here; only oﬀ-brand sof t drinks and stale-looking nuts and
chocolates that had melted in the heat. Both her grandpar ents fell asleep, their heads leaning
inwar d, towar d Lupe who had also closed her eyes. She was
softly chanting: “ I love myself; ther efore, I live totally in the
now, e xperiencing each moment as good and knowing that
my futur e is bright, joyous, and secur e. ”When a nurse called out their name, both grandpar ents
woke with a start. They all stood and ﬁled into the oﬃce,
wher e their infor mation was enter ed into the computer. Lupe felt as if they wer e stuck in a pr ocess that they’d
repeated hundr eds of times. What was the sense of
computers if every time you had to pr ovide the same
material. But her grandpar ents showed no sign of being
angry. Her grandmother got out a small notebook fr om her
purse and r eported all the data ask ed of her in a pleasant
voice. L upe admir ed her fortitude and level mood; if she
ever got sad or scar ed, she didn’t show it. Poppy was mor e emotional. She had once seen him gr ow
so angry that he br ought his big ﬁst down on the dining-
room table, splitting one of the boar ds. But he never acted
this way in public. His hair was even grayer lately, and much
of it had fallen out at some point she hadn’t noticed. “Do all thr ee of you need to be in her e. ” the nurse ask ed
roughly when it was time to enter the doctor’s oﬃce. “Yes,” said L upe’s grandmother. “All of us. ”

A crowd of par ents and grandpar ents wer e taking their
seats in the school auditorium. L upe’s grandmother sat in
the fr ont row, wearing a hat and a brightly ﬂower ed dr ess. A
long pr ocession of girls walk ed onstage, one a r eplica of the
other—long pale hair with bangs and dark dr esses with
white collars. Mrs. Saldana clapped loudly when L upe
enter ed the stage, trailing in at the end. She was smiling,
but clearly out of place. Her long hair had partly escaped fr om its elastic and was
curling ar ound her face, and her dr ess was cut fr om the
same bright fabric as her grandmother’s. Lupe tried to stand in tight for mation with the other
singers, but following Brie’s lead, they managed to inch
away fr om her, leaving a space that was visible fr om the
audience, as if she wer e infectious. Brie’s face was steely
tonight, without the smirk she usually wor e. She seemed to
be sear ching the audience for someone. The conductor, a tall nun in moder n habit, bowed to
applause and raised her ar ms. The girls all tur ned to her
and, at her downbeat, commenced singing “The L ord Is
Mighty. ” As the singing continued, L upe’s voice r ose,

 fuel consumption or
preferred fuel sources between even the fastest and the slowest of me tabolizers. The truly fast metabolizer uses more calories per hour throughout the  day, than the average person does. The more calories
one utilizes in the course of a day, the faster that person's total meta bolism would be. An Example
For example, we can reasonably estimate that a moderately active, 110-pou nd, 5'4" woman might eat about 2,000 calories per day
and a lightly active man who is 5'10" tall and 150 pounds uses about 2,400 calories. In th is example, the man uses an average of
100 calories per hour. For the sake of simplicity, we shall call 100 calories per hour (plus or minus  10%) the midrange of metabolic rate. We could
therefore assert that a person who uses, on average, more than 110 calorie s per hour would be termed a fast metabolizer and a
person who uses less than 90 calories per hour would be a slow metabolizer. We cou ld assign people progressively faster and slower metabolic designations the more their calorie usage differed f rom the midrange. At this point we have come to an unbridgeable contradiction. W e are tol d that fast metabolizers—those people who utilize the
most fuel per hour, are supposedly the very people who will thrive on the high est fat levels in their diet. Meanwhile, we are also
being told that only slow-metabolizing athletes should attempt to utili ze a diet higher in carbohydrates from fruit. Yet we know that
athletes are the very people who have the fastest metabolisms, despite  any variations in their BMR. To make matters more confusing, scientific research consistently  proves that the more fat you consume, the more your health
will suffer. Somewhere, someone must be wrong in these assertions. It i s not possible to straddle both sides of this fence. Either a
fat-based diet is most healthful or a fruit-based diet is, but it cannot be bot h; and it cannot be one for some people and the other for
other people. Small cows eat small amounts of food relative to large cows. Active cows  eat more food than their sedentary counterparts, yet
all cows eat essentially the same food. Fruits and vegetables have bee n touted as the ultimate health foods for humans for over a
century, and they have been the primary food of humankind throughout our exi stence, up until the recent past. Whether you are small or large, active or sedentary, fruits and veget ables remain the optimum foods of choice for fulfilling all
human nutritional needs. If one person needs to consume a greater number  of calories than another person, it simply means that they
must eat a greater quantity of food, not completely different foods. In case the above is not enough of a contradiction to try to puzzle out, work on thi s one: It has been repeatedly asserted that
most people would experience the greatest levels of health using a diet  that is composed primarily of fats. This assertion is based on
the assumption that most people are fast metabolizers, a premise that ca nnot be true. Whenever we work with large numbers, the
law of averages comes into play. Using the law of averages, a “normal ” or “bell” curve is always formed. In the bell curve, only
about 5 to 10% of the people would truly be classed as fast metabolizers, 5 to 10% would be sl ow metabolizers, and the rest,
roughly 80%, would fall somewhere in the middle. These would be average meta bolizers, not slow and not fast. Do not be misled by metabolism (or oxidation) mumbo jumbo. Track your fat intake on an y given day and see for yourself just
exactly what percentage of your calories it comprises. Once you do, you wil l understand why so many raw fooders are having
problems. High fat is also the reason that most scientific studies of ra w fooders draw negative conclusions. Is it any wonder that
people have trouble staying healthy on their high-fat raw regimens, or that they find cooked carbohydrates so alluring? Those who convince unsuspecting new raw fooders to steer clear of fruit  and gorge on fat do succeed in accomplishing one
goal; the creation of nutritional inadequacies. This opens the door for sel ling us nutritional supplements in a vain attempt to
compensate for the very deficiencies that result from consuming a h igh-fat raw diet. Of course, most newcomers want to learn and
are prone to following the advice they are given. Can I thrive on only raw foods? No essential nutrient exists in meat, grains, legumes, or dairy tha t is not also available in fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds—
and in a form that is easier to digest. Indeed, many vital nutrients, suc h as soluble fibers and the thousands of phytonutrients, can only
be garnered from plants. Fruits, vegetables, and leafy greens not only con tain sustainable amounts of carbohydrates, protein, and fat,
they also contain them in the percentages, ratios, and forms that are opt imum for human health. People thrive on the raw diet, often telling others how it has improved the ir health and their lives. When people integrate a
proper raw diet with other healthful living practices, they rarely, i f ever, develop weight-control problems or chronic (or even short-
term) illnesses. Health becomes a fact of life. For millions of years, most humans, and their ancestors, lived a gathere r lifestyle in a tropical environment where large amounts
of easy-to-pick fruit were readily available to meet their nutrition al needs. The human diet was likely entirely plant based and eaten
without the application of fire or heat. Accordingly, the human digesti ve and eliminative tracts developed to process raw fruits and
vegetables for fuel and growth. We are biologically designed to obtain our nu trition from uncooked fruits and vegetables. Only within the last 10,000 years has cereal agriculture allowed huma ns to trade their frugivorous diets for cooked grain-
based fare. 83  People’s bodies remained the same, but the food they chose to eat beg an to vary for the worse. The human body has
not had sufficient time, evolutionarily speaking, to alter its digesti ve system to meet this fundamental dietary change. The likelihood of
doing so is slim at best, as heated foods are of lower nutritional quality, and c ooking introduces toxic elements. Hence, the
adaptation would be a downward one, and would be technically considered a devolution. Will eating raw make me healthy? A proper raw diet will result in improved health, but I must emphasize tha t the body, not food, creates health. Food does not
build; the body builds. Food does not cleanse; the body cleanses. Good health, after al l, is the result of a healthy lifestyle. The raw diet is but one component of healthful living. Adequate rest and s leep, regular, vigorous physical activity, plenty of
fresh air, sunlight, a positive outlook on life, and many other factors are a lso essential to creating good health. Why didn’t the 80/10/10 diet work for me? People come to me at times having tried this method of eating unsuccess fully. Upon examination, I have found almost
invariably that they were not actually doing what I recommend. As I t ruly desire to see people succeed, I want to mention here
several key factors that people often overlook when adopting the 80/10/10  lifestyle. You are not following 80/10/10 if:

Less than 2% of your total calories come from vegetables and leafy green s. For true health, I recommend consuming 2 to 6%
of calories from leafy greens. For 4% of your calories to come from vegetable s on a 2000-calorie diet, you would have to eat
roughly a pound of greens per day. Your caloric intake is insufficient to maintain your desired body weigh t.
You burn less than 40% of your total calories through physical activity ( at least 800 calories per day if you average 2,000
calories). Y our habitual sleep pattern doesn’t meet your body’s needs. You eat all day long rather than one to four meals a day. You lack emotional poise (your lifestyle is sufficiently stressful  to cause your system ongoing adrenal exertion). You expose your fully (or substantially) unclothed skin to moderate sunli ght less than 30 minutes per day. (Our bodies require
approximately 15 minutes of sunlight exposure per day to produce sufficient  vitamin D. I would consider 30 minutes a day a
healthful minimum… remember, our species wasn’t designed to live i ndoors.) Why do people “fail” on the raw diet? The most common reason for lack of success with the raw diet is the overal l poor health of the new raw fooders who
unknowingly obtains most of his or her daily calories from raw fat sources. This occurs even as they eat what they consider a
tremendous amount of vegetables, because vegetables contain so few cal ories. The components of fatty foods are not a match for human nutritional needs. E ating a high-fat diet paves the way to a wide
variety of health issues that have their basis in nutritional in sufficiency. Eating sweet-fruit carbohydrates in insufficient volume to produce  a feeling of satiation results predictably in carbohydrate
cravings and disordered eating behaviors. Almost every raw fooders who goe s back to eating cooked foods find himself eating
cooked carbohydrates—bread


 be en replaced
by th e u nlimited. T ime has become Allness and F oreverness. Intention hasbeen replaced by spontaneity, and the limiting perception of duality has
been rem oved as the Radiance of Oneness illuminates the Rea lity and the
T ruth of nonduality. The esse nce of Divinity stands forth in its Self-
revelation. Mentation has ceased, and in the Silence, the Knowingness of
Omniscience radiates forth unasked. Emotion has been replaced by Peace. The ord inary mind is the thinking mind, and it thinks in per ceptions,
judgments, and definitions. It ha s pronouns, my  and mine, part and parcel of
its dualistic standpoint of separateness. Religious education involves the
thinking mind with its learning and mastery of information. The
information then becomes inte grated, and a person can spend a whole
lifetime studying religious history and theology. In the mystic state, the
understanding comes about in a totally dif ferent, nonlinear way. It does not
come ab out as a result of reason. Rather, the understanding is an  ef fulgence,
a rev elation that requires no thinkingness at all and not even a ny religious
knowledge. The Mystical Experience
Previous books, I: Realit y and Subjectivity  and The Eye of the I: Fr om
Which Nothing Is Hidden, describe the unusual states of consciousness
experienced in this lifetime. Certain occurrences are noted here because
they exh ibit cha racteristics of the mystic. One major event for  me was an
experience in a snowbank as a teenager. As a child, I was qui te religious,
but the religion had nothing to do with the mystical phenomena I
experienced. One can memorize all the spiritual literature in the world, and
when the mystical experience occurs, it has nothing at all to do with
anything ever learned in a lifetime of study. It occurred in a blizzard in northern W isconsin when I was caught far
away from home during my 17- mile bicycle route to deliver newspapers. It
became terribly windy and cold, and huge snowbanks were piled up high
about ten feet on each side of the highway. T o get out of the wind, I crushed
my w ay into the  snowbank and quickly dug out a little cave. I had plenty of
physical ener gy and was not near death, but I wanted a spell of relief from
the windchill. I climbed to the side of this little cave and tried to relax. Then ou t of nowhere came a pro found, Infinite Radiance of Love beyond
all im agination, beyond human l ove, timeless and eternal, no be ginning andno end. It was c loser to me tha n my own self—closer to wha t I had ever
thought of myself or my personal identity as myself. That Infinite Love was
the core of who I was and had always been. It was an eternal Foreverness. In th at s tate, you realize that what you are is Eternal, Infinite Love. The
Reality of that which you are is not dif ferent from Infinite, absolutely
Perfect Love, with no beginning and no end. That is the Revelation of the
T ruth of  your own existence. That is the truth of everyone’ s exi stence. That
which you are is Infinite Love, which has existed forever and has no
beginning and no end. All that is needed right now is for you to realize that! The state occurred spontaneously, without thought, with no pronouns,
with no warning. In today’ s wo rld, people read this and then start looking
for a snowbank to experience i t, as if the place “caused” it to happen. Or
they ma ke a “holy” snowbank w here it occurred. (The snowbank eventually
melted, thankfully, so no one can put a holy placard in front of it!) It was a
very profound realization, beyo nd all learning, having nothing to do with
religion or theology. There is no connection between the line ar realm of
religion and the nonlinear realm  of the mystic. One involves thinking, and
the other is beyond it. The mystic state is that of surrendering to the Self, to the ca pacity of
Divinity within to reveal Itself. And it reveals Itself when it is  karmically
propitious to do so, not necessarily when you want it to happen. It can
happen at very inconvenient t imes. Y ou may find yourself completely
incapacitated, si tting there in a state of bliss on a rock, unable to get up,
move, o r leave. The police may come and cart you of f to a hospital, but in
that state you have no say in the matter. The mystic who has realized the Self and then stays in the world to serve
a tea ching function is referred to as a sage. Self-realization, on the Map of
Consciousness, encompasses the levels 700 and up, with Raman a Maharshi
and Nisagardatta Maharaj as examples of the sage. In that state, one sees the
world in its essence. The sage tells you, “The world you see does not exist.” This statement
confounds the ordinary mind, which assumes that its percep tions of the
world are exactly the way the world is. But the sage sees beyond
perception, whi ch is based on the illusion of separateness, and instead
witnesses the unity of all phenomena. The expressions of the rain may look
like separate raindrops; however, the rain is one.On the level of ordinary dualistic perception, there needs to be a “this”
causing a “that.” There is always a victim and perpetrator. What would
politics be without a victim and perpetrator? The life stories of most people
turn on the drama of “they did  this to me.” There is always a n oppressor
causing harm to the innocent on e. In contrast, the mystic sees the unity and
the truth beyond causation, beyond perception, which is emer gence. Emer gence means there is no conflict between evolution and creation,
because creation expresses itself as evolution. The Infinite Field, out of
which all phenomenal existence  arises, is the field of consciousness itself,
which is  inheren tly compassion ate and just, for “Love is the Ultimate Law
of the Universe”  (statement calibrates at 750). The field and the phenomena
are one dynamic whole, simultaneously creation and evolution. The field of
consciousness, in other terminology, is called the Buddha-nature. The field, the Buddha-nature, the state of Infinite Love, is always present,
awaiting your realization. It i s always complete. It does not go from
incomplete to complete. It is complete right from the beginning. When I lay
in the snowbank, the state was complete, instantly once and fo r all. It did
not start, get louder and louder, and creep up my legs. Sudd enly, out of
nowhere, I was in a totally dif ferent realm and it was beatific. The only
reason I  left that state was to re lieve my father ’ s agony. He ca me looking
for me in our old Model A Ford, tracing my paper route. I was in this state
of bliss, and the next thing I knew my father was shaking my ankle: “Dave,
Dave!” I could see he would have been grief-stricken if I had n ot breathed
again. H e might have blamed hi mself for my death. So, out of lo ve for him,
I br eathed and reowned the body. The only alternative to that state of
Infinite Love, then, was another  form of love, personal love, and placing it
in front of Divine Love. The inner state of the mystic ultimately cannot be described. It
transfigures all life like a Light has come on that illuminates a ll existence,
and the Radiance makes it dif ficult to function. One learns how to live with
it in a s eminormal fashion. W ith concentration, one can fool most of the
people most of the time—looking at them respectfully and sayin g, “Oh yes. Uh-huh. That’ s right. Y eah. Mm-hmm.” Most people never know what they
are in the presence of, just as they are unaware of their own inner Self. In contradistinction to the intellectual approach in religious education,
what we  are describing here i s the inner path. It arises from within. A
religious education can set the s tage for it, but it does not cause it. One canstudy theology day in and day out, and that study will not necessarily
precipitate an inner spiritual rea lization. However, if there is an interest in
religion, plus a certain motivation, the inner path becomes activated. The
great saints of C hristianity demonstrate that scriptural study, w orship, and
the d evotion to r eligion can end up as a mystical inner awarenes s. Suddenly
the word s dissol ve in the Realization of the inner T ruth. They call it Unio
mystica, the mystical union of self and Divinity, a state of Divine Love. DIVINE ST A TES

retained to strengthen the weakened structure. Cases of starvation gives many examples of control
carried out by the body over the processes of autolysis. For example,
tissue disappear in accordance with the degree of their usefulness - first
fats and abnormal growths, and then the other tissues. all
living beings - from worm to man - in the period of fasting various
organs and tissues are very different in their ability to reduce its
weight. Usually, the liver loses more weight than other
body parts, especially in the initial period, due to loss
glycogen and fat. Light almost nothing to lose, even less - the brain
and the nervous system. Vital organs fed by the accumulated reserves
and less important tissues, so that abstinence from food could
harm only after consuming the reserves. The organism has the ability to move their chemical
elements, so that fasting gives many wonderful examples. Assimilation and reorganization of parts of the body, which is observed in living
beings when they are denied food, digestion and reallocation
reserves, surplus and secondary tissue is observed in all
animals when they are forced starvation, are, according to
author, one of the most wonderful phenomena in biology. The organism is not only able to build tissue, it is also capable

119
119tumor may be composed of tissues, blood and bones. There are many
names for various kinds of tumors, but the name itself indicates
the type of tissue that comprises a tumor. For example, the osteoma is
of bone, uterine - from muscle, neuroma - from the nervous,
lipoma - from fat, etc. Since the tumors are composed of tissues, as
and other body structures, they are autoliticheskoy
disintegration - the same as normal tissue, with the most
different circumstances, but especially during fasting. The reader who is able to understand how hunger causes
reduction in body fat, it reduces the size
muscles, can also understand how it leads to a reduction in the size
tumor or induces its complete disappearance. He only has to
understand that the process of disintegration (autolysis) of the tumor occurs
much faster than normal tissues. In his "Notes on tumors - work for students in Physiology
- Dr. FK Wood wrote: "Spontaneous disappearance of more
or less long time was seen in a very small part
malignant tumors in humans. The largest number of cases
this disappearance occurred after partial surgical
tumor removal. They occur most often during an acute
febrile process, and less frequently in connection with a certain depth
changes in metabolic processes such as the exclusive
cachexia (general malnutrition), artificial menopause, and others. " But there can be more profound changes in metabolism, rather than
that caused by starvation, and this change is of a nature
giving the best possible cause autolysis of the tumor -
malignant and other. Conditions, said Dr. Wood as
cause spontaneous disappearance of tumors, most
cases are in the nature of coincidences and are beyond
arbitrary control. Fasting, in contrast, can be
conducted and implemented under the supervision and at any time upon request. And over the operations should normally be an even greater tumor growth. Spontaneous disappearance of the tumor after its partial removal -
rare. The same could be provided and the artificial menopause. At higher temperatures, we often witness a rapid autolysis
in many tissues of the body and its great healing work. But
we can not cause a fever as they wish. Pregnancy and childbirth cause many deep
changes in the body, but it certainly can not be
recommended that sick women as a means of healing
from the tumor. Even if it were desirable, it would be
means "by eye". And the results of starvation definite. Here
There is nothing "by eye". It always operates in one direction. Fever - is a healing process and really helps
remove the cause of the tumor. But no other cases of spontaneous
disappearance of tumors in Dr. Wood does not help to remove them
reasons. But fasting is just really helps remove the cause. 120
120A lot of people who practiced fasting, get rid of
tumors by autolysis. Here's how it writes about a doctor with a very large practice of fasting
Herbert Shelton, "Let me give you two exceptional cases,
to show the wide range of the process. woman
aged about forty years fibroma found in the urinary canal
size of an average grapefruit. Fibroids completely disappeared in 28
days of total abstinence from food (only when drinking mode). It was an unusually rapid disappearance of the tumor. another woman
was similar to the formation of the size of a goose egg. One
fasting for 21 days reduced the tumor size to a value
walnut. Starvation was interrupted by the appearance of hunger. To complete the total disappearance of the tumor, several
weeks after the first fasting required for the second - the duration
in 17 days. But it was unusually slow. Tumor formation of breast cancer in women,
fluctuating in size from a pea to a goose egg, disappear
during the fasting of three days to several weeks. Next
a wonderful example of this kind, which the reader
and will be interesting and instructive: a young woman aged
1921 on the right breast was firm formation - a little less
billiard ball. within four months it will cause severe
pain. Finally she went to the doctor, who discovered the cancer
and advised an immediate operation. to which she would then either
addressed to doctors, she always received the same diagnosis the same advice. But not wanting surgery, the woman resorted to fasting without taking
any food, and exactly three days later the cancer and all its attendant
pain disappeared. and for thirty years, not had a recurrence, I believe,
that we may consider it a cure. Hundreds of similar cases during the fasting have convinced me that
many of the "tumor" and "cancers", removed by surgeons, not a tumor
and crayfish. They make us very skeptical
to published statistics, supposedly proving that
early surgery to prevent or cure cancer. Removal of tumors by autolysis has several advantages
before its surgical removal. The operation is always dangerous, and autolysis
- Physiological process and poses no threat. Operation
suppresses the life force and thus enhances the distortion
metabolism, which underlies the tumor. Starvation, with
which is enhanced autolysis and normalizes nutrition and contributes
removal of accumulated toxins, thus helping to eliminate
cause of the tumor. After surgery, tumors tend to
to relapse. And after the disappearance of the tumor as a result of autolysis
possibility of recurrence is small. Tumor after surgery
operations are often re-appear in malignant form. Trend
to degenerate into a malignant tumor removed starvation. Over the past fifty years in Europe and USA literally thousands
121
121cases the tumor disappeared as a result of autolysis, and efficiency
this method is beyond doubt. the author has no specific information about
bone and nerve tumors. But because they are subject to the
the same laws as the rest of the tumor, he was inclined to believe that they can
autolyze as efficiently as other tumors. Of course, the process of autolysis has its limits, and if the tumor is able to
grow to considerable size, it only reduced in size
and not all cells will be thus absorbed. It is desirable therefore
go through the required fasting or starvation, while tumor
or cyst is relatively small. It should be noted further
limitation: the tumor, which block the lymph ducts,
will continue to grow in spite of starvation (because of accumulated
these tumors excess lymph). where not achieved
complete absorption of the tumor, it significantly decreased to
size, is not dangerous. A further right
lifestyle will prevent new growth. We have observed several cases
when the subsequent decrease in tumor size occurred
through healthy lifestyle after fasting. " OMOLA ALIVE mechanical ZM

And many others. 2}. Hormones
Hormones are powerful molecules which once produced may cause
complete alteration in the balance of body processes, personality,
emotions, and state of mind. After the years of 40 to 50 there may be a
hormonal imbalance which now in this new age there are millions and
millions given" Premarin", a prescription drug short for
pregnant-mare urine. { See premarine farm section to learn more }. Yes you read correctly. Pregnant female horse urine. So why pay for animal hormone therapy when you can not only have
human hormone therapy but your own selected personal therapy? With this self-therapy we should also be aware of a hormone called
Melatonin. This powerful anti cancer human hormone availing a very
easy method for falling asleep or an aid for jet lag. The pills that are sold
in the nutritional stores are normally hormonal extract from pigs. Also lets not forget dopamine, insulin, corticosteroids, gonadotropin,
prolactin, vasopressin, thyroxine, adrenaline, testosterone, progesterone,
and many others. 10 It is suggested to use your first urination after you get up in the morning. The reason is that enzymes and hormones are more concentrated and
collected all during the night. The method for collection is do not drink the
first 20% because that part is mostly oil and bile. Do collect the
centerportion for drinking. The last 20% may have sediment. So, only the central portions, warm immediate after releasing. NEVER drink that which has been left open to the air for a time. This is when bacteria originate in the atmosphere and multiply quickly
3}. Enzymes
Many enzymes are contained in urine. Protease,
Beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase, alpha-amylase, lysozyme. This gives great explanation to why urine therapy is affective against
strokes, heart attacks, arteriosclerosis, embolism, etc. One enzyme
Urokinase is well known for its vasodilatation and resembles nitroglycerin
and its ability to strengthen the arteries. Urokinase is extracted from urine and brought into the medical
marketplace on a large scale. An American company has developed a
special filter that collects the proteins and has 10,000 Porta-Johns. This collection of urine and the transition to Urokinase give to a annual
market sales of $500,000,000.00 from unsuspecting donors. 4}. Urea
Urea in amniotic fluid is by the most part urine from the fetus. *
Starting in the second month it is essential for proper development of the
pulmonary system. * Urea also affects the brain and central nervous
system. Utilization of urea is sometimes used during brain surgery to
minimize pressure on the brain and spinal cord. Chiropractors as well as
myself are fully aware of the health problems caused by the pressures or
subluxations of the spinal column and pressure on the brain. Urea tends to
shrink the spinal column and brain therefore reduces this pressure. Urea is an oxidizing substance. It dissolves fats and other natural body
-secretions. Urea is also more effective when warm or when heated. 5}. Salts
The drinking of salts as urine is by nature a salt solution is an important
therapeutic remedy. It relieves such problems as constipation, asthma,
stomach ulcers, indigestion, and elimination of certain parasites. 6}. Immune System
Urine is not toxic, however there may be some toxic substances in urine
available in small amounts, especially if someone is in contact with a
11 new disease and does not know it or is ill. We will talk more of this under
the definition of Homeopathy and the law of similars. These are the
medically active substances at infinitesimal do&es. Natural vaccines
Understand that what we drink in our urine may give us that added vaccine
needed to starve off the next oncoming flu, virus, aids, plague, or whatever
the governments of this world may unleash on the mass population. What a grand way to fight naturally against mass infectious warfare. You can now be ready for the inevitable. Your pharmacy at hand. 7}. Bacteria, Viral, and fungal. Urine has a germicidal and antiseptic effect against bacteria, virus, fungus
and many parasites. So does ammonia and salt. It is also known that urine
placed on a scrape, cut, bruises, prevents infection and keeps flies away as
in warmer climates. Scientific research has demonstrated that both urea
and ammonia have a powerful effect on viruses and bacteria. How to brbdt? Children
Two or three times a day with juice, chocolate, milk, or lemonade. Think it up. Make your kid happy. It's up to you when you break the news. Remember you need to collect it and when they get older, they are smart. Why not just tell them as it is their life pharmaceutical and a secret from
most. You know that they are the privileged ones. If they tell their friends
I'm sure they will get blasted. Other not being told from their parents direct
make this crime if not told perfectly proper. Adults
Go for it pure if you can. Straight. Come on. It's blood plasma. If not start out with a few drops in juice or water. Build up to an once
And later a couple ounces to the whole release. tcts talk of uses tl1rousl1out tl1e worlb. In India where purified water was at a minimal especially in the small
villages, many have told me by those who lived in India and who visit often,
that many wash their bodies, hair, dishes, with the urine from cows. Urine is as we have told you when fresh out of a human or animal is sterile. Therefore the best form of washing possible. Of course the curing and softening of the skin without the harshness of
soaps are an additional benefit. In the Persian {Mid east countries}, the nomads of the desert who have
minimal water available for drinking, wash themselves in camels urine. It is a sane, pure, sterile way of cleaning our human body. It is a different method, never taught in schools in the USA,
12 Nevertheless it is their way. A sociological way proper in their country. If you think that those countries do that type of therapy because they are
backward third world countries, lets look now at Holland. Holland is first in recreational drug legalization. Marijuana is being sold at local coffee shops with menus for the different
types of marijuana flavors, strength, and imports from other countries. Holland now is the only country in the world that has legalized euthanasia. That is to say the legalization of ending one's life. Holland also has in some, not all restrooms, special dispensers for those
who use urine therapy on a daily basis. Urine therapy has also been used before 2,000 years in empires such as
China, Greece, and the Roman Empire, including in the times of Christ. Eskimos, American Indian, Mexican Indian, all the indigenous of South
America, and the indigenous people of Australia also utilizes this therapy. It permeates the countries of Bulgaria, Germany, Romania, Austria, and I
am sure many more but the research is so hard to get many to open to you. So you see, urine therapy has been here from time beginning. It was only society and its taboo that holds back this information. 8}. Miscellaneous
There are many other beneficial substances that are
