Winning The Cancer War
Conclusion I
As described, one extremely ill patient died the day after consulting Dr. Kelley. Otherwise, based on the evaluation of the medical records, the patients in one group
were not significantly sicker than those in any other group when first seen by Dr.
Kelley. Dr. Kelley has repeatedly told all cancer patients they should follow the full
program for at least several years to regain good health. Nevertheless, the mean
survival time for those who followed the Metabolic program only partially, and
usually briefly, is 4.8 times greater than the survival time of patients who never began
the Metabolic Program. Finally, the data allows an estimation of Dr. Kelley's success rate with pancreatic
cancer. In this calculation, only those patients who followed the full Metabolic
program are considered. This is appropriate: in any controlled clinical trial of a
chemotherapeutic drug, subjects who deviate from the protocol must be discounted,
even if they do well. So, Dr. Kelley's success rate, in this particular series of patients - considering only
those who used the full program, is 100%. The journalist used a relatively small number of patients. Nonetheless, this is an
impressive outcome; no oncologist in the orthodox or alternative medical
communities anywhere in the world can match these results. Cancer is the easiest of all the major degenerative disease conditions to properly
treat and cure. It requires the failure of the pancreas from 2 to 4 years to develop a
Malignant Tumor Mass, which the Medical Community in total error calls "CANCER"
Conclusion II
For over 37 years our researchers have had the integrity, discipline and stamina to
thoroughly investigate the parameters of the disease process that is commonly known
as Cancer. They have addressed this, a most serious issue of our times with honesty,
integrity, openness and determination that befits the intelligence and position of
scientific researchers. The highest honor a true scientific researcher can ever attain has been attained —
that is rejection and condemnation by the Establishment. This honor comes to very
few in the Academic or Scientific Community. No higher honor can be bestowed
upon a mere mortal. They stand tall beside the great of civilization, such as Galileo,
57
Winning The Cancer War
Louis Pasteur and Gregor Mendel. Unfortunately, the Orthodox and Alternative clinicians, doctors, and researchers,
for well over the past 100 years have been in serious SCIENTIFIC ERROR when
addressing Cancer. Yes, many of these individuals have observed one little parameter
of Cancer, but they have completely missed the understanding of what Cancer is. Many of the Alternative researchers and practitioners have fallen into the same
scientific error as the Orthodox researchers. More unfortunately, the Orthodox
researchers and practitioners, have even, with their unlimited funding, fallen into
complete and total Scientific Error when addressing cancer. 1. They see a Malignant Tumor Mass, and in total Scientific Error call it a "Cancer." It is nothing of the sort. This is exposing their total ignorance of Cancer. A
Malignant Tumor Mass is a Malignant Tumor Mass, and in no way can an
intelligent scientist call it Cancer. 2. Cancer is a simple failure of one's own pancreas to produce adequate activated
pancreatin and deliver it to the site of a stimulated (activated) normal Trophoblast
Cell (Pre-Placenta Cell). This happens to each of us, thousands of times every day. At this point the pancreatin produced by the pancreas and activated by secretions
from the first six inches of the small intestine, circulates throughout the body. This
activated pancreatin seeks and searches out all manner of defective cells, bruises
and pre-placental tissue cells. 3. These defective cells are digested by the activated pancreatin. The white cells
then pick up this goopy mess and carry it to the LIVER by way of the bloodstream
and lymph system. This mess has to wait its turn to enter into the liver to be
eliminated. Most doctors and cancer victims alike, are so dumb they expect the
liver to do this without their help — and for the most part, the liver must
accomplish this task in spite of their hindrance. 4. All systems of both the Orthodox and Alternative Medical Communities, in total
ignorance dealing with malignant tumor masses are accounted for in Metabolic
Medicine's Paradigm. The success rates of these most unscientific procedures
range from four to at most 30%. Their very few successes are accomplished by
accident and in total ignorance of Metabolic Principles. 5. There are a few sincere, naive, ignorant individuals, who in honesty and
dedication want to help the CANCER VICTIM. However, they do not comprehend
what Cancer is and by hit or miss, stumble onto one little parameter of Metabolic
Medicine's Paradigm. 6. Most individuals associated with the diabolical CANCER RACKET do not want and
58
Winning The Cancer War
will not allow the proper treatment of Cancer to be known or used. They enlist the aid of the
Political, Legal and Medical Establishments. It is their objective to so deceive the CANCER
VICTIM that he/she will run as fast as they can to the doctor. 7. In their deceptive schemes, these Establishment con artists expect and demand that we
Cancer Victims voluntarily beg the Medical Communities to plunder us and take all our
assets in blind false hope of receiving proper and adequate treatment. What little success is
forthcoming is by accident and in total ignorance. The Cancer Victim has a Failure of the Pancreas for at least two years before a Malignant
Tumor Mass develops to a point that the physician becomes aware of their condition. Although
these victims have felt that something was wrong for several months and have often gone to the
physician for help, with very little improvement noted. When Pancreatic failure progresses to a point wherein a Malignant Tumor Mass — A False
Placenta — is found, in ignorance and scientific error, the physician calls this Malignant Tumor
Mass CANCER. The diagnostic evaluation tools developed by the Unscientific Scientific Community — that is,
Biopsy, Scans, Blood Tests, X-rays, etc. are so crude it is unbelievable. By the time these crude
procedures are used, it is most often too late for any effective therapeutic procedure. Remember
the Medical Communities never, ever, address CANCER, only Malignant Tumor Masses. Researchers of the College of Metabolic Medicine developed a simple, effective and
inexpensive Self-Examination Procedure for pancreatic failure in the mid-1960's. The
Establishment for obvious reasons has suppressed this Self-Examination Procedure. This Pancreas
Self-Examination Procedure should be used once a year to alert one to possible pancreatic
failure. This simple Self-Examination could put the National Cancer Institute and the American
Cancer Society out of business within a few months. All persons who have Cancer will die from starvation if they are not killed before, — usually
by their physician. May our Father God Almighty extend His loving kindness, protection and blessings to you in all
ways — always! Respectfully,
William D. Kelley, D.D.S., M.S. 59
Dietary  Recom m end ations
The Choice: Eat To Live - Or - Live To Eat! All non-organic grains, are "DUSTED" and stored with anti-mold, anti
fungal and other deadly shelf-life extenders. One should make every effort to contact the primary source of non
organic grains and discover the system of additives and shelf-life
extenders used. Metabolic Medicine's Cancer Cure Diet
About the year 424 BC, Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine, made the
statement, "Your food shall be your medicine and your medicine shall be your food." Try as we may, we have not been able to improve upon this basic truth. This is
particularly true when it comes to the successful treatment of the cancer patient. At
least 86% of all cancer conditions could be adequately treated and/or prevented by
diet alone. It never ceases to amaze me at the number of learned as well as ignorant persons
who scoff when diet is mentioned. They all seem to believe that no matter what is
placed into the body, by some magical process, it makes for perfect health. Yet these
same people are very fastidious and concerned about what, how and how much food
is fed to their pedigreed dogs and cats and their registered cattle and horses. It is
ironic that they cannot see that their own health is equally dependent upon a proper
balanced nutritional process. Metabolic Dietary Support For Health Building

,	“I
THINK,	THEREFORE
	I
AM. ”	The	way	I	see	it,	I’m	connected	to	God,
therefore	I	am. Without	my	faith,	I	feel	that	I’d	be	nothing	but	a	disconnected
array	of	thoughts	and	feelings	without	any	sense	of	true	meaning	or	purpose. I	don’t	mean	that	without	my	religion	I’d	be	nothing—although	I	think	Iwould	be	less. I	mean	I	derive	my	emotional	security	from	my	belief	that	I’m
not	alone	in	the	universe—that	I’m	supported	by	what	Martin	Luther	King,
Jr.,	called	“cosmic	companionship. ”	I	can’t	imagine	how	cold	this	world	must
feel—particularly	these	days—for	those	who	have	no	larger,	otherworldly
context	for	their	human	existence. Without	a	spiritual	perspective,	I	don’t
know	how	people	do	it. Every	once	in	a	while,	people	ask	me	what	I	think	I	would	have	done	with
my	life	if	I	hadn’t	found
A	Course	in	Miracles. I	usually	mention	Edina	on	the
British	TV	comedy
Absolutely	Fabulous. If	you	haven’t	seen	it,	trust	me—not
a	pretty	sight. Like	that	character,	some	people	get	stuck	in	life,	circling	over
and	over	to	the	same	old	spots	because	they	can’t	find	the	door	to	another
realm	of	options. Most	of	us	at	one	point	or	another	can	relate	to	that. All	I
know	is	that	the	only	escape	for	me	has	been	a	door	I	cannot	open	by	myself. In	college,	I	took	classes	where	I	read	books	about	philosophical	states	of
“ennui,”	a	sense	of	isolation	in	the	universe	and	existential	despair. But	at	that
point	in	my	life	I	couldn’t	fully	appreciate	what	any	of	that	meant. It’s	only
with	the	passage	of	years,	as	each	layer	of	worldly	illusion	falls	away	before
your	eyes,	that	you	come	to	appreciate	an	otherworldly	constant. Unless	you
have	contact	with	a	higher	power,	the	lower	ones	can	really	do	you	in. And	once	you’ve	gotten	old	enough,	you’re	not	too	proud	to	ask	for	help. I’m	amused	when	I	hear	someone	say	that	faith	is	just	a	crutch. I	figure	if
your	leg	is	broken,	then	it	would	be	nice	to	have	that	crutch. And	you	only
use	it	until	you’re	ready	to	get	back	on	your	own	two	feet. Relying	on	God
doesn’t	mean	that	you’re	relying	on	something	outside	yourself. It	means	that
you’re	relying	on	the	Truth	of	All	Things,	a	higher	power	whose	throne	is	not
out	there	somewhere	but	inside	your	heart. You’re	relying	on	the	power	of
compassion	and	nonjudgment. You’re	relying	on	objective,	discernible	laws
of	the	universe;	faith	that	love	produces	miracles	is	no	different	from	faith
that	gravity	makes	things	fall. If	I	have	a	choice	between	relying	on	a	divine	Creator	or	relying	on	the
false	powers	of	a	confused	and	pain-filled	world,	then	I	choose	the	former
anytime. Sometimes	when	I	wake	up	in	the	morning,	I	can	feel	my	soul	reach
up	to	God,	my	mind	uttering	phrases	such	as
All	I	want	is	the	peace	of	God
before	I	even	reach	for	the

	workbook	that	I	keep	next	to

end-all. My	soul	has	been	thrown	against	so	many	rocky	cliffs,	and	I	finally
realized	I	was	the	wind. Who	else	but	God	could	calm	the	tempest	in	mysoul. And	I	have	a	feeling,	having	been	calm	for	certain	moments	and	certain
hours	and	certain	days,	that	what	happens	when	I	achieve	that	state	is	not	just
useful	to	me,	but	to	Him	as	well. At	least,	that	is	what	I	pray	for. E
VERY	PROBLEM	IS	A	CHALLENGE	TO	BECOME
	a	better	person. Imagine,	then,	what	we’re
being	challenged	to	become	in	order	to	turn	history	around	at	this	time. What
quantum	leap	will	transition	us	from	the	level	of	consciousness	at	which	we
created	our	problems	to	a	level	of	consciousness	at	which	we’re	able	to
miraculously	solve	them. Who	is	it	we	are	destined	to	be,	that	in	our	presence
the	dense	thought-forms	of	hate	will	simply	drop	away. That’s	what	is	so	exhilarating	about	this	moment. Given	that	God	has	an
answer	to	every	problem	the	moment	it	occurs,	then	there	exists	in	His	mind
an	absolute	plan—a	blueprint	for	our	salvation—already	etched	in	full	upon
our	hearts. According	to	that	plan,	we’ll	be	individually	and	collectively
redeemed	and	set	upon	a	new	path	of	evolution. All	the	old	notions	will	die
away,	and	the	human	race	will	remember	at	last	that	we	were	conceived	in
love;	we	are	here	to	love;	and	one	way	or	another,	we’ll	remember	to	love. One	of	the	most	important	things	that	any	of	us	can	do	to	help	the	world	are
to	pray	and	meditate	consistently. Prayer,	according	to
A	Course	in	Miracles,
is	the	conduit	of	miracles. It	changes	us,	and	through	us,	the	entire	world. No
one	who	prays	and	meditates	consistently	doesn’t	give	a	damn	what	happens. The	first	reason	we	pray	and	meditate	is	to	handle	the	darkness	of	the
world,	strengthening	our	resistance	to	rampant	chaos	and	negativity. In	this
time	of	historical	phase	transition,	many	people	are	experiencing	a	low-grade
panic	they’re	not	even	aware	of. All	of	us	should	surround	ourselves	with	a
shield	of	light,	and	prayer	and	meditation	provide	it. Interestingly,	however,	we	don’t	just	pray	and	meditate	so	we	can	handle
the	darkness. We	do	it	also	so	we	can	handle	the	light. Our	nervous	systems
are	being	bombarded	today	by	forces	of	light	streaming	down	in	response	to
humanity’s	prayers	for	help,	but	a	nervous	system	unprepared	for	such	an
onrush	can	become	overloaded. It	does	us	little	good	if	we	succeed	at	calling
forth	miracles,	yet	are	psychologically	and	emotionally	unprepared	to	receive
them	when	they	arrive. Prayer	not	only	calls	forth	our	good,	but	prepares	us	to
handle	it	once	it	comes. As	Martin	Luther	King,	Jr.,	said,	“[We	need]	a	qualitative	change	in	our
souls	as	well	as	a	quantitative	change	in	our	lives. ”	Many	people	say	we’re

 the interest of that person
in other human beings is in their position. "Oh, he's
president of so-and-so," or, "He's only a blue-collar
worker. " It is not the money but the status that money
gives them. What kind of a God can that person see from the
level of pridefulness. There are probably two options. Because of denial and intellectual arrogance, one can
say that the left brain denies that there is a God, or,
one can say that their position is the right one, and
therefore everybody else is wrong; thus, they end up
with skepticism or bigotry. This is the source ofall the
religious wars. "My view of religion is right; therefore,
yours must be wrong. " Pridefulness leads one into a
polarized position of"me right, you wrong. "The anxi
ety that accompanies this puts the person on the
defensive because he lives in a world of win-lose. As we move up to Courage at level 200, there is
appropriateness for the first time. The person is able
to face, cope, and handle, and they become empow
ered because they have begun to tell the truth about WORRY, FEAR, AND ANXIETY 293
themselves. The person from the level of Courage
walks down the same street and sees a challenging,
exciting world of opportunity. It is a thrilling world of
growing, learning, expanding, and watching others
grow. There is an inner joy that comes from expand
ing one's own space. Courage settled the United Sates
of America and the West. It created all the industrial
empires and scientific enterprises. It got us to the
moon. It is the world of growth and expansion. What kind of God is the God of that level of con
sciousness. The person on that level of consciousness
has an open mind for the fIrst time. He does not pride
fully presume that he has the answer. He is not
aligned with vengeful negativity. He says for the fIrst
time, "I wonder if there is such a being. I wonder if
there is something greater than the personal self. I am
open to learning about this. " He then treats the God
question the same as he does the world question, as
an exciting opportunity for exploration, and discovers
that spiritual research is eXciting, and the things that
are discovered are intriguing and benefIcial. The next energy fIeld, Neutral at level 250, results
in being unattached. This person says it is okay if they

world does not control them anymore. They say, "If

explore. "If there is a God, it's okay with me, and if
there isn't, that's okay with me. "There is an inner fair
ness about God. "If there is a God, He will be fair, and
I will learn about it when the time comes; if there
isn't, that is okay with me, too. " At the level ofWillingness at calibration level 310,
the person now declares an intention and says "yes" to
life. "I join; I align myself; I agree with things. " The
person begins to experience a willingness to be of
service, along with a certain happiness, and views the
world as friendly. When one is willing, the world is
friendly. Now the person walks down the street and
sees potentially friendly people. All one has to do is
walk up to an old lady and say, "Hi, what a beautiful
day. " She says,"Hey, nobody has talked to me all morn
ing. Isn't this nice. "The world is a friendly place, and
God perhaps becomes a promising and hopeful con
cept. The God of a friendly world would become a
friendly God. Even if one does not believe in Him, one
begins to trust Him. If one does not have a belief in
God, at least the friendly person says,"Well, if there is
one, he will be at least as kindly as my grandmother. He is going to understand human nature and is not
going to throw me into the pit fires of hell for being
human. He created me as human; I'm his handiwork. What is He going to do. Condemn His own creation. " Therefore, there is a certain trust in a God. As we move up to Acceptance at calibration level
350, we have begun to own ourself as a source of our
own power. We are the creator of the happiness in
our own life now, and that transformation in con
sciousness brings a feeling of adequacy and confiWORRY, FEAR, AND ANXIETY 295
dence; the view of the world now is harmonious. When we walk down the street, we see the subtle,
beautiful naturalness of how everything interacts,
how everything is really where it should be, and that
everybody wants to be what they are. The bag lady is
there because she wants to be a bag lady; nobody has
forced her to be that. She has chosen to be that which
she is. We stop blaming things, and we begin to expe
rience that the world is expressing harmony to the
degree to which we are willing to own the truth
about ourself and express it. The whole movie is har
monious, and God now begins to look like a merciful
and forgiving God of a harmonious world. With the quieting of emotionality that is conse
quent to acceptance, the way is now clear to facilitate
the use of reason, discernment, and the intellect
without interference from stressful feelings, such as
fear of survival, anger, and the rest. Free of the distor
tions and distractions, the mind becomes clear enough
to utilize logic and the benefits of education and higher
learning, including academic study and abstract
thought, which is the level of mind that includes the
calibration range of the 400s. This is also the realm
of science, which is based on the Newtonian para
digm of proof, evidence, and the laws of cause and
effect. The 400s include the Great Books of the
Western World, as well as celebrated geniuses, such as
Newton, Einstein, and Freud. In the 400s, personal power increases markedly by
maximal use ofthe prefrontal cortex ofthe brain with
which fear, worry, and anxiety can be handled with
the tools of logic and reason rather than just raw emo296 HEALING AND RECOVERY
tion. The world therefore looks less fearful because its
risks are comprehended from a higher, more mature
level rather than from the raw emotionality of the
child. The mind thus discovers safeguards and limits
in order to arrive at a balance and the capacity for
rational judgment and reality testing. Via good will and a rational worldview, inner anxiety
diminishes, and the shift in brain physiology, plus
intention, allows for the emergence of Love as a dom
inant life principle at consciousness calibration level
500. At this level, the nurturance of relationships and
the welfare of others become predominant in con
trast to lower levels of consciousness that are the con
sequence of domination by the narcissistic core of
the ego. With further evolution, the level of Love becomes
unconditional at 540, and the way is paved for con
sciousness to evolve to the higher spiritual levels that
calibrate at approximately 600, which is the level of
spiritual Bliss and Peace. As we move up in our willingness to be of service
to this world, our lovingness emerges as
Unconditional Love to nurture and support life. We
are willing to forgive, and beginning revelation
occurs. Due to the release of endorphins, we begin to
see the lovingness that is everywhere. We see it in
nature and in the animal world. We see the naturallov
ingness of the child within everybody. The loving
heart of the child is still alive in everyone. Ifa person
does not experience that, it is beCause they do not
know how to tune in to it, but the innocent, loving
heart of the child is in everyone. It can be appealed W0 RR Y, FEAR, AND AN X lETY 297
to, and that is why the merciless killer in the presence
of a loving person can become harmless. In contrast,
in the presence of a fearful person, it creates the
space for him to attack, and he does attack. The loving
person then experiences a safe world, and God must,
of necessity, be at least at the same level of conscious
ness as he is and therefore be unconditionally loving. The experience of the truth of this brings the
person into a joyfulness. Joyfulness brings about a


 much improved. The chemo-caused symptoms clear, the blood picture improves
once again, the tumors regress more rapidly, hair re-grows and energy returns. After this major clear-out, one important procedure, namely the Castor Oil Treatment  can
cautiously be added to the protocol. The patient is started on the castor oil enema only. Instead
of the usual amount, (see Chapter 13, pg. 113 ) only two teaspoonfuls are added to the coffee
enema for 2-3 weeks, up to twice weekly. If the patient does not react too violently, this amount
is increased to four teaspoonfuls for another three weeks. Again, if this addition is well tolerated,
the patient should be given one teaspoonful  of castor oil orally, followed by the usual cup of hot
sweetened coffee; then, 5 hours later, by the castor oil enema—twice a week. After this again
slowly the amounts are gradually increased, together with the number of coffee enemas, until the
patient is able to take the complete regular castor oil treatment and restore the reduced Therapy to
its full intensive level, as used by regular patients.Copyright © Charlotte Gerson, 2007. All rights reserved.

The Gerson Therapy for
Non-Malignant Diseases
From his long clinical practice Dr. Gerson was able to establish that a patient suffering from a
non-malignant disease had a sick, damaged liver, while the liver of someone with a malignancy
was severely toxic (poisoned). Based on this difference, he adjusted the treatment accordingly,
creating a less intensive therapy for non-malignant conditions. At the same time he specified that
if patients in the latter category followed a stricter protocol, closely resembling the full intensive
therapy, they recovered faster. The less intensive therapy is less demanding and easier to follow, so that patients on this

8. These should consist of 4 carrot/apple juices; 3 green juices and one orange juice. However,
do not reduce it further! Also patients with collagen diseases (lupus, rheumatoid arthritis or

Things to Remember
In this chapter we present a number of miscellaneous items in support of your efforts to improve
and protect your health. Knowledge is power, and the emergence of the so-called ‘expert
patient’ around the world is a sure sign that more and more people are willing to take responsibility
for their health and well-being. No doubt you are one of them. We hope you will find the following
information useful. Orthodox Cancer Treatments
Unlike the non-invasive, non-toxic and holistic cancer treatment contained in the Gerson
Therapy, orthodox oncology concentrates on the removal or destruction of the tumor by three
means, namely surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. In the following we give brief summaries
of each. Surgery
In many cases of cancer, patients are able to avoid surgery by embarking on the Gerson
Therapy instead. However, occasionally a Gerson doctor will suggest surgery in order to ‘de-
bulk’ the patient’s tumor load. It is true that removing a tumor makes it easier for the body to
deal with the remaining disease in order to heal. This is because malignancies have a different
metabolism from that of normal cells and release toxins into the surrounding tissue


 to name a few. Statistics now tell us that cancer is
in every other male and in every third female. With diseases just about to
eliminate us as a race, it is obvious that this treatment concept isn’t working. With the treatment method, symptoms are only controlled or temporarily
eliminated, only to return when treatment is stopped. Oftentimes, the
symptoms come back with a vengeance, as in cancer. You cannot “treat”
chronic or degenerative conditions, as treatment just worsens the condition. Regeneration and detoxification, on the other hand, mean the complete
elimination of the cause of the symptoms. If you correct the cause of the
problem, the symptoms will automatically go away. Regeneration means
rebuilding tissue that is failing; and detoxification is the method used to
remove the inflammation and toxins that have caused these tissues to fail in
the first place. Always ask yourself what the cause of your symptoms may
be, and focus on that. People are too busy chasing effects. As we learned in detail in the previous chapter, there are only three basic
causes of disease symptoms: 1. acidosis, which causes inflammation, leading
to congestion, ulceration and atrophy (tissue failure); 2. toxicity, which
causes congestion, inflammation and cellular damage, thus leading to tissue
failure; and 3. tissue weakness or tissue failure itself caused by genetics,
acidosis, and/or toxicity. Acidosis (over-acidity or inflammation) and toxicity
are the main causes of tissue failure, which can cause innumerable effects or
symptoms. This is true especially when this “tissue failure” affects the
endocrine gland system. These three causes are behind 99.9 percent of all
diseases. In thirty years of clinical work I have never seen a condition that could
not tremendously improve, or in most cases completely disappear, with these
methods of regeneration and detoxification. These two concepts are
interdependent, as you cannot regenerate the body without detoxification. They are the twin pillars of health and vitality.I have seen bones and backs straighten and strengthen themselves—from
curvatures (scoliosis), old fractures, and similar conditions. I have also seen
complete spinal cord severations reconnect after more than ten years. I have
seen glands and all types of tissue rebuild themselves. Your body is a living, conscious machine. It can rebuild itself after
surgeries, major cuts and wounds, so why not after nerve damage or atrophy? The truth is, it can! But not on a diet of dead animals and other cooked, dead
foods. Regeneration has three main components to it: Alkalize, Detoxify and
Energize. All three work together and are inseparable. Alkalization is vital to
tissue regeneration because it is anti-inflammatory It builds electrolytes for
proper ionizacion, oxidation and neutralization. It allows for proper cellular
respiration and for disbursement of nutrients throughout the body. Detoxifying, of course, cleans all the obstructions, irritants and
stimulants, like mucus, heavy metals, chemicals and pesticides out of your
body. This allows for proper digestion, absorption, utilization and
elimination. Energizing your cells with energy from living foods is also vital to robust
health. Without the power of
live
 foods, which are full of nutrition and
electricity, you cannot accomplish alkalization and detoxification. Detoxification is the only way to establish a true homeostasis within the
body. This homeo-stasis can then be elevated to unlimited heights. Vitality and vibrancy should always be one’s goal. Life then becomes
exciting, joyful, and bubbling with energy. Take the time for yourself and don’t settle for anything less than total
health—free of disease. The road to regeneration is not the easy way. It can
be filled with ups and downs depending upon your toxicity levels and
weaknesses. However, regeneration is the only way to lasting health, vitality
and longevity. Up to this point we have covered a lot of information about you—the
type of species your physical body belongs to, and the types of food that are
best suited for your body. We’ve examined how your physical, emotional
and mental bodies work. We’ve discussed foods and their chemical make-up,
and we’ve covered those foods and chemicals that are toxic to you. We’ve
also covered various disease symptoms, what they are, and what causes them. Now let’s get to the heart of the matter: What do we do about our healthissues? How do we start this journey into health? This chapter will begin with
Naturopathy and the Science of Detoxification,
 and then cover the
detoxification process in detail. You may want to tag this chapter for ongoing
reference, as it will supply you with step-by-step guidelines, warnings, and
hints to take you through this vital process. MODULE 6.1
Naturopathy and the Science of Detoxification

Naturopathy is one of the greatest sciences, for it is the study and practice of
nature. Its basic foundation is health and vitality, and it encompasses all
aspects of nature that influence regeneration. In nature, all forms of life consume some sort of food to sustain health. Most of nature eats intuitively. Human beings have lost a great deal of this
intuitiveness, and therefore they primarily consume what society teaches them
to eat. Since money is one of the major motivating factors in today’s world,
many products and foods are sold for financial gain at the expense of
personal health. As our species has become the sickest and most disease-
ridden on this planet, Naturopathy was born out of a desire to regain this lost
intuition for what truly are the appropriate foods to sustain human life. As we’ve discussed previously, your body is like an engine that requires
a fuel source, but it needs to be cleaned and rebuilt as time goes on. If you
use bad fuels, your car won’t run properly and will eventually stop running. The same is true of your body. Since men and women have chosen to filltheir bodies with bad fuels—foods that leave a lot of residues in their tissues
—they must clean the body out, or suffer the consequences. Diseases are
nothing more than signs and symptoms that reflect the body’s need to clean
and rebuild itself. Fresh, uncooked foods, especially fruits, are self-cleansing. They not only feed the body, they keep it clean internally as well. Detoxification is truly a science and an art unto itself; a necessary
response to the consumption of toxic and congestive foods that have clogged
and obstructed the human body. In nature, detoxification is a continual
process that all of life goes through, at one level or another. The process of
cleaning your body of toxins, mucus and acidosis can create symptoms that
are seen as diseases by some doctors, and so we have been taught to fear this
natural process. All life in the physical world takes in energy, metabolizes it, and then
excretes the remains and by-products. Most of the time this is done
automatically. However, the human is the only species on this planet that
chooses
 to eat foods that are not harmonious with its species. Humans also
choose
 to alter the chemistry and energy of the foods they eat by processing
and cooking them. This changes the nature of these foods and the way they
are metabolized. Many of these foods then become irritating, mucus-forming,
and inflammatory to the body. Some foods, like processed grains and dairy
products, act like glue in your tissues; and others, like meat and processed
foods, contain deadly chemicals and heavy metals. Added to this destructive
situation is the chemicalized air we breathe and the products we use on our
bodies and in our homes. The external environment also exerts its influence. “Acid rain” has resulted from so much acidic air pollution from factories. Now, almost every breath we take is acid-forming. All these toxic and mucus-forming substances will change the way the
body eliminates. In other words, cooked and processed foods slow down
body elimination and, in most cases, the toxic by-products of these foods are
stored or plaqued in the tissues. This blocks proper cellular respiration,
causing a cell to become hypo-active, slowly losing its ability to function. Many disease symptoms are nothing more than the body’s effort to
eliminate these stored
toxins and mucus, some of which we began storing
in
utero. Most pregnant women consume milk, meat and other toxic foods,
thinking that they are building bones and muscle tissue in the fetus. This,
however, just adds to her toxicity and acidosis, thus increasing tissue
weakness. The same is happening in her fetus.The body is always trying to keep itself clean and strong by means of
detoxification. This is done through sweating caused by fevers, by vomiting,
diarrhea, frequent urination, colds, flus, and by simple daily elimination. The
more toxic a person becomes, the stronger the purging will be. Take simple
bronchitis, for example. If the first time your body had symptoms of
bronchitis you went to your doctor and he or she gave you antibiotics, or
even extremely high doses of vitamin C, the symptoms of bronchitis would
stop. These remedies did not cure the inflammation and congestion, they
merely stopped the elimination process or symptoms. Results like these give
the illusion that the condition was cured. However, the next time your body
tries to clean itself out, it could have symptoms of pneumonia


relations have gone.” Others say, “My turn’s coming. I’vegot a date with the undertaker and it’s not so far off.”
These depressing thoughts can generate sad moods
and are detrimental to Agelessness and Longevity!Remember, you can make the second half of life the best. Autointoxication itself is your health’s greatest
enemy. It’s so common and yet so rarely recognized.Those morbid moods – the worry, tensions, stresses,
frustrations, nervousness and needless anxiety – are
foreign to a healthy state. You should always beoptimistic, happy, carefree, self-confident and at peace. Why is it that sometimes when fortune smiles her
brightest, you remain unhappy, mirthless, depressed, andungrateful? Then again when things look their bleakest,
you are amazed at your buoyancy. The purity or impurity
of your bloodstream might explain that! I love life and want to live
120 years and more, in
prime physical condition! Each day of life is a beautiful,
priceless miracle! I want to keep it, value it, treasure itand enjoy every waking hour! I also want this for you.30
The nervous system falters and suffers when we don’t take care of our body. Develop healthy self-esteem to generate positive lifestyle habits that
will promote more serenity, peace and love in your life. – Patricia BraggRid Yourself of Depression
The worst aspect of autointoxication is that it has
been building up for years. It takes water fasting, whole
natural foods and living a healthy lifestyle to defeat it. When these poisons are surging through your body, youoften are pessimistic with depressed feelings. The
mockery of life comes home to you. You begin to wonder,
“Is it all worthwhile?” Then one morning you awakento find your cheery self again. Though a bit shaken up,
you have hopefully beaten off the foe. Newspapers,
magazines, TV and radio all sell products that makepromises to relieve you of that “half alive” feeling. Which
one do you take? There are no shortcuts to feeling your
best physically and mentally and looking your best. You are punished by your bad habits of living! You are greatly rewarded by your good habits of living! Ageless Mother Nature will not let you get away with
abusing your body. You must pay a high price every timeyou insult your body with dead and devitalized foods.Of course, you could take drugs to deaden or stimulate
your body, but you are living in a fool’s paradise if you
think you can eat any old thing and then swallow somekind of magic pill and get away with it. You pay a dear
price every time you make a garbage can of your
stomach! Your heart and arteries suffer. Your spells ofautointoxication (self-poisoning) are shortening your
life. Each attack leaves its mark and, for this reason, it’s
something to dread. Please don’t poison your bloodstream.Learn to defend and protect yourself against all possible
autointoxication by living The Bragg Healthy Lifestyle. Once a week make it a habit to take a complete water
fast, lasting from
24 to 36 hours. On the days you do
eat, consume only natural, organic and unpoisoned
foods. Let your mind rule your body. Flesh is dumb! Youcan feed your stomach anything. Now you are going to
use common sense and eat with new health intelligence.31
When it comes to health, nine men in ten are suicides. –  Ben FranklinUnhealthy Lifestyle & Overeating are Killers
Keep this firmly in mind: autointoxication is the
greatest enemy of vibrant health. It’s the root cause of
all major physical troubles, because illness starts in a
poisoned bloodstream. It’s the basis of most troubleswhich affect the heart, arteries, liver, kidneys and joints. When your bloodstream, your river of life, becomes poisoned,
this has more to do with premature ageing than all othercauses combined. Keeping your blood pure, clean and
healthy is half the battle! The other killer is overloading
your stomach and digestive system, giving it a new jobbefore it has finished digesting the previous meal. You have been taught to eat at regular times, even if
not hungry. Many, when it’s mealtime, stuff themselvesautomatically. This is wrong and scientifically outdated,
for overstuffing your body is very unhealthy! Patricia and I took a cruise around South America
visiting
12 countries. The over-stuffed passengers started
with an early wake-up breakfast in their staterooms. Then
an hour or so later they ate in the dining room a formalbreakfast of bacon, ham, eggs, rolls, toast, jam, friedpotatoes and gallons of coffee, followed by snacks on
deck at mid-morning. Then a big buffet lunch at noon,
afternoon tea with gooey pastries at
4 pm, a big supper
at 7 pm and another big buffet at 11 pm. Sadly we buried
5 people at sea in a few short weeks! All died by
autointoxications! This kind of overeating encouragesfermentation, putrefaction, illness and death! Life is a Slow Suicide For Many
From the cradle many begin damaging their health
while lightheartedly trimming off the years quickly atthe beginning of existence, unknowingly chopping them
off in bigger chunks at the end. Blissfully unconscious,
they burn their candles at both ends and sometimes evenin the middle! Many people suffer in poor health not
realizing that their unhealthy lifestyle habits are the
main cause of their sickness.32
Man’s days shall be 120 years. – Genesis 6:3
May nature’s force be with you! – George W. Lucas, Jr., Star WarsWhy Not Enjoy Life to 120 Years? There is little doubt that any person born with a
sound constitution, according to health research and
Genesis 6:3, can reach the 120 year mark! Why not? There
are no diseases of old age. Now, follow me: if startingfrom childhood, you eat healthily, plus fast one day a
week and several times a year for periods of from
7 to 10
days – then how is it possible to get a fatal disease? Children today are being fed wrong! Many mothers
don’t nurse their babies. Some lack the internal health
and vitality to produce the greatest food for their young- mothers’ milk. Their babies are bottle-fed and are given
processed baby food out of jars, all loaded with refined
white flours, sugar and dangerously full of deadly salt.The abuse of the physical machine of the modern child
is started at birth! Under these tragic circumstances,
sooner or later premature breakdown is inevitable. If you seek enlightenment on the subject of health,
look at people around you. Every day, there are
25 million
Americans critically ill in thousands of hospitals fromcoast to coast. The 300,000 doctors are kept franticallybusy trying to patch up the desperately sick people in
our country! Over 150,000 dentists can’t do even
10%
of the dental work Americans need! A void toxic silver
mercury fillings, all fluoride water, toothpastes, gels, etc. (see page 152). Read Bragg book Water – The Shocking Truth. I find most children’s mouths are filled with decay
and cavities before they are 17. We are a desperately sick,
ill nation! We are brainwashed to believe we are a healthy
vital country. The World’s facts and figures tell a differentstory. Even if you don’t overeat, the food you eat is mostly
unhealthy. Yet a little knowledge of physiology, health,
diet and fasting could save you from health bankruptcy.Ignorance is a worse enemy than over indulgence. Overhaul your body and save your precious health! You
can’t be a walking toxic factory and expect to live a long
life of super health in a painless, tireless, ageless body.33
Just trust yourself – be wise, then you will know how to live. – von GoetheAutointoxication Promotes Sickness
I was reared in Virginia on a typical southern diet. Ninety percent of my food was prepared in the frying
pan: fried chicken, fried ham, bacon, potatoes, porkchops and other fried meats of all kinds. I ate heavy
cream, flour gravies and hot biscuits and plenty of pies,
cakes and jellies. When I look back, I see I suffered inmy youth from this self-poisoning and didn’t know it. Despite my abhorrence of drugs, I let myself be drugged
by the poisons within me. Rarely was I entirely free ofthem, and the average health I enjoyed was far from the
radiant health that was my natural heritage. I usually slept
10 hours a night instead of 8, and the
excess I am sure was largely due to autointoxication. Even after a long night of sleep, I seldom woke up feeling
refreshed, plus I had a bitter morning taste in my mouth.Most people are not really living; they are merely
existing. They are so full of toxic poisons that living
becomes an effort. Few people rise early to see the sunriseand greet the new day with eagerness and joy! I do now! Let us look at our bedrooms as recharge areas where
we are required to spend a certain length of time in sleep
to recharge our life batteries. Let’s make our bedroomsuncluttered and peaceful with ample fresh air and light. Ceiling fans in hot summers are nice.


quite simply,  as if wc  had
never  known  them  before,  and,  without  prcjudice,
look  at what  is going on. You  may  ask, "Which
experiences,  which  sensations  and feelings,  shall
we look  at. " I will answer,  "Which  ones  can you
look  at. " The an- swer  is that  you must  look  at the
ones  you have  now. That  is surely  rather  obvious. Bue  very  obvious  things  are often  overlookcd. If a
feeling  is not pres - cnt, you are not awarc  of it. There  is no expcrience  but present  expcrience. What  you know,  what  you are actually  aware  of,
is just what  is happening  at this
moment,  and no more. 13ut  what  about  mcmories. Surely  by
remember - ing 1 can also know what  is pase. Very
well,  remem - bcr something. Remember  the
incident  of secing  a fricnd walking down  the strcet. What  are you  aware  of. You are not  acLUally

with hirn, or get an answer to a  question  you forgot
to ask hirn  at the pase  time  you
81 TIIE  WISDOM  OF INSECURITY
are remembering. In other words, you are not
look - ing at the actual past at ali. You are looking
at a present  trace  of the past. lt is likc seeing the tracks of a bird on the
sand. I see the prcsent tracks. I do not, at thc sarne
time, see  the bird making those tracks an hour
befare. The  bird  has flown,  and I am not aware  of
hirn. From  the tracks I infer that a bird was there. From memories  you infer that there have been
past events. But you  are not aware of any past
events. You know the past  only  in thc prcscm
ancl  as parto(  thc present. Wc are seeing, then, that our expericnce is
alto - gethcr momentary. From one point of
view, each  momcnc is so elusive and so brief that
we cannot even  think about it befare it has gane. From another point  of view, this rnoment is
always here, since we know  no other moment
than the present moment. lt is al - ways dying,
always becoming pase more rapidly than
imagination can conceive. Yct at the same time it
is always being born, always new, emerging just
as rapidly from that complete unknown which
we call  the futurc. Thinking about it almost
makes you  breathless. To say that experience is momentary is rcally
to say that experience and the present moment
are the  samc ching. To say that  this momcnt  is
always dying,  or becoming past, and always being
born, or corning  out of the unknown, is to say the
same thing of ex- perience. The  expericnce  you
have  just had  has van-

ished irretrievably, and all that remains of it is a sort
of wake  or track  in the present,  which  we call
memory. While you can make a guess as to what ex-
pericnce is coming nexc, in actual  fact you do not
know. Anything might  happcn. But the cxpcrience
which is going on now is, as ir were, a newborn in -
fant which vanishes be(ore it can even begin to gct
older. While you are watching this present experience,
are you aware of someone watching it. Can you 6nd,
in addition to thc cxpcrience itsclf, an expericncer. Can you, at the same time,  read this scntence and
think  about  yoursclf  reading  it. You will find  that,  to
think about yourself reading it, you muse for a brief
second stop reading. The first experience is reading. The second experiencc is the thought, "I  am read -
ing. " Can you find any thinker, who is thinking thc
thought, "I am reading. " ln othcr words, when pres -
ent cxpcriencc  is the  thought,  "l am rcading," can
you think  about  yoursclf  thinking  this thought. Once again,  you muse stop  thinking just,  "I am
reading. " You pass to a third expcrience,,vhich is the
thought, "l  am thinking that  I am reading. " Do not

deceivc you in1. o tite fccling that you think thcm ali
at once. But what has happened. Never al any time wcre
you able  to separate  yourself  from  your  present
thought,  or your  present  cxperience. The  first  pres -
83 TJIE  WISDOM  OF INSEClJRITY
ent experience was reading. When you lried to
think  about yourself reading, the experience
changed, ancl  the next present experience was
the thought "l am  reading. " You could not
separate yourself from this  experience without
passing on to another. lt was  "ring around 1. he
rosy. " When you were thinking, "I am reading this
sentence" you were not reading it. In  other
words, in each present experience you were
only aware of that experience. You were never
awarc  of bcing aware. You werc ncver able to
separatc the  thinkcr from  thc thought,  the
knower  from  the known. All you ever found was a
new thought, a new  experience. To be aware, then, is to be aware of thoughts,
feel- ings, sensations, desires, and ali other forms
of ex - perience. Nevcr at any time are you aware
oE any- thing which is not cxpcrience, nota
thought or feel - ing, but instead an experiencer,
thinker, or feelcr. lf this is so, what makes us
think that any such thing  exists. We might  say,  for cxample,  that  the 'T' who  is
the
thinker is this physical body and brain. llut this
body  is in no way separate from its thoughts and
scnsa - tions. Whcn you have a sensation, say, of
touch,  that sensation is pan of your body. While
that sensation  is going on, you cannot move the
body away from it  any more than you can walk
away from a headache  or from your own feet. So
long as it is present, that  sensation  is your  body
and is you. You  can removc  ON BEING  AWARE
the body from an uncomfortable chair, but you
can- not move  it from  the sensation  of a chair. The nolion  of a separate  thinker,  of an "l" dis-
tinct from the experience, comes from mcmory
and from the rapidity with which thought changcs. lt is  like whírling  a burning stick to give the
illusion of a  continuous circle of ti. re. If you
imagine that memory  is a direcc knowledge of che
pase rather chan a present  experience, you get the
illusion of knowing the past  and the prescnt at the
same time. This suggests t hat there is something
in you dislinct from both the past  and che present
experiences. You  reason,  "I know  chis present
experience, and it is different from that  past
experience. If 1 can compare the two, and notice
that experience  has changed,  I muse  be something
constant  and apart. " But,  as a matter  of fact,  you cannot  compare  this
present experience with a pase experience. You
can only compare it with a memory of the past,
which is a  parl of lhe presenl experience. When you
see clearly  chat memory is a form of present
experience,  it will  be obvious that trying to
separate yourself from this  experience  is as
impossible as trying to make your  teeth  bite
themselves. There  is simply  experience. There is
not something or someone experiencing ex -
perience. You do not fccl feelings, think thoughts,
or sense sensations any more than you hear
hearing, see  sight,  or smell smelling. "I feel fine"
means  that a fine feeling  is present. It does  not
mean  that  there  is

 In the case of spinach or rhubarb, cooking shows how
dangerous foods can be made so pa latable as to be eaten to excess. Man is not ideally adapted to most  mature green leaves, but rather
to tender shoots, and in moderation, for shoots are not over-abundant in nature. Some shoots, ho wever, and many mature leaves,
have large amounts of oxalic acid, which the liver cannot efficiently
metabolise. When eaten, the aci d base balance of the body is
threatened, calcium mobilized and wasted. In the raw state, such
foods are unpleasantly acid, and no mo re than a bite would be taken. Cooked, dressed with butter and bechamel, spinach becomes delectable and rhubarb delicious, good examples of the dangers of
gastronomy. Children, however, are often wiser, for in spite of such
subterfuge, they appear to have an innate aversion to such foods. Many people would be prepared to defend the art of cooking
for the pleasure that it brings to  a usually boring and frustrated
existence. Unfortunately, these pl easures are transitory. After many
a good meal, the bodily disquiet is all too apparent, in the flushed
face and the beating heart. Only a few lucky people get away with it
for any time. Usually, the price is paid depressingly early, when one should still be in the prime of life, at fifty, sixty, young still for a creature evidently designed for a very long existence. The trouble is that most people cannot conceive that simple, natural foods can afford pleasure. Only an overall reform of life attitudes, a revival of
the meaning of purity, of beauty, can enable the sensing of the
arcadean joys to be had in natural eating. Natural eating does not mean crude, unattractive, unimaginative
eating. On the contrary, the natural appeals of natural food can be enormously extended, if not by cooking, by presentation and
preparation. The raw components need not be limited and dull, and
with a minimum amount of cooking, a thoroughly satisfactory and humanly enhancing diet presents itself. The art of it remains, and has the beauty and purity which all art should bestow upon the
human. By comparison, the art devices of gastronomy are no different from the false beauty of lipstick and pancake makeup. 13. The Costs of Confusion

Living in an age when the human being is looked upon as an
accidental production of a Universe without meaning, subject to a
nature prone to catastrophe, man is  seen as no more than a cunning,
randy naked ape. It would seem re asonable that people should grab
for the immediate pleasures and sa tisfactions that existence can
provide, without asking too many questions, particularly those
involving right or wrong, good or bad. Philosophers themselves,
who in the past have preoccupied themselves with the ideal, have
come to the conclusion that only existence counts, that ideals are
one more manifestation of illusion. For those who believe that ma n is naturally an idealizing
creature, however opportunistic and existentialistic he may appear,
the modern situation can only be interpreted as the crisis of blindness and atrophy brought about by long ages of confusion, originally initiated by nature's own hostilities in the trials of the Ice
Ages, but perpetuated ever since by an inability to feel and think
clearly again. After many thousands of years of endeavouring to find the lost wisdom of which every one feels his due, the modern age has come to accept the impossib ility of wisdom. It is a tragic
situation, all the more tragic in that science has come to confirm the
apparent futility of man. Although most people do not like the effort involved in feeling
and thinking deeply about such problems, and prefer to take life as it comes, clearly the way out of the present confusions, with their
roots in the most distant past, can only be found by some very deep and passionate thinking indeed. In facing the problem examined in
this book—the question of right eating—a practical resolution it not
enough. To have any effect, it must be backed by belief that man has meaning, that essence is what primarily matters, for existence
can only have meaning when it complies with essence, with the rules set by nature for human existence, the opposite of the usual
opportunism. The problem is a circuitous one; living existentially, one comes
to believe that only existence matters. In the case of food and feeding, it is simply not felt po ssible that there can be any ideal
pattern; like all things, food is an occasion for the natural
opportunist scramble. It is generally believed that the gory,
gluttonous, promiscuous Primal Horde is only held down by social
censure, by the primitive law of an eye for an eye, and today, law and censure in themselves are being dismantled in a rising, officially backed opportunism. We have all become petty criminals,
and no longer much troubled by the fact. This turn of events is not only disastrous in its inhuman
consequences, but is irrational, for the most elementary lesson that biology should have to teach is th at nature not only favours the fit
and eliminates the unfit, but rewards only the fit, mercilessly punishing the unfit. This does not depend on any ulterior meaning or morality in the working of nature. It is a purely practical,
indispensable provision in the functioning of things. If reward and punishment are not a built-in provision, as fundamental as the
particular ways in which atoms combine with one another to form
the myriad substances of nature and of living things, the whirling
clouds of hydrogen gas, which appeared at the beginning of the universe some fifteen billion years ago, would still be whirling around, having accomplished nothing. Modern existentialism has been the work of thinkers with no
scientific training. Scientists, biol ogists in particular, could easily
dismantle their systems; their guilt should be that so few of them have had the courage to speak out against the falsities of so many of the widely advertised and accepted conclusions of the age. Accepting that nature works on the principles of rewards and
punishments, it should be evident that the modern opportunist,
existentialistic attitudes cannot possi bly bring genuine gratification. If there are apparent pleasures in the purely random ways in which people live, then they can but amount to illusions, certain to carry a backwash of retribution. The impartial examination of any aspect of
modern living shows this to be true, whether it be politics or sex,
medicine or feeding. The apparent rewards of power invariably bring with them the attendants of insensitivity, and the joys of so
called freedom in sex disappointments and painfulness. The trouble is that so hollow has life become, that people will not face the emptiness of the only rewards to livi ng which they believe exist, the
pleasures of the palate, of the bed, of money, of material gadgetry
and power, of the bogus communalism of urban living, of the mechanically expressed restlessness of the disturbed modern soul. So it is that most people would probably contend that the
satisfactions of the ordinary life, admitting that they involve many
departures from normality, are worth the while, the price worth
paying, if indeed there is a price at all. Almost everyone believes that it is not all that important what one eats, as long as one has variety and amount enough. There has to be something very wrong with a meal for one to be punished with a stomach ache. Uncomplainingly, the body accepts the legions of daily
transgressions of a lesser kind without protest. When catastrophe
eventually occurs—and many a ppear to escape altogether—in a
burst blood vessel, in a seizing arthritic joint, the long abuse of natural law seems quite inappare nt. Bad luck, accident, nature's
inherent imperfections seem the more likely causes. But if the majority are the victims of such confusion, it seems
hardly believable that science, and medicine in particular, do not more frequently protest against the common waywardness. Over the past two or three decades, the ev idence has been mounting, enough
to leave no doubt that man's misfortunes are largely self-inflicted, by carelessness, by greed, by stupidity, and that the price paid in
suffering is astronomical. Science clearly serves the particular
culture in which it exists; it is no independent impartial overseer. The common assumption that disease is 'natural' and naturally
inevitable, the consequences of a wayward and imperfect nature, to
be remedied only by human interference, is at the heart of much of
the confusion. One must admit that nature is not perfect, but nature
does quite often achieve perfection, even if to appreciate the refinements of this perfection, one has to go beyond the realm of appearances, as science has discovered. As insisted upon in the
course of this book, humanization must have occurred initially under ideal conditions, even if things went wrong subsequently. Health and happiness should therefore be natural possibilities,
provided the original humanizing conditions can be restored. For transgressions which have recurrently occurred in the
history of life, the cataclysms of climate and food change, of earth movements, of floodings and dessi cations, living things have an
inexhaustible reservoir of experience to call upon. Given time,
readaptation to change follows, a nd the animal survives. But if the
transgression is unnatural, as in the case of laboratory or industrial products, there is not


th ing—I’m  not skydiving or
bungee jumping—but I have become more athletic, and I’m willing  to try new things that require physical activity, purely for th e fun
of it or just to see if I can. (It’s not hard to be more willing than I use d to be … heck, I wasn’t at all  willing before. ) I’m no
bodybuilder, although my body’s been building itself quite nicely. I have been gaining strength, endurance, and muscle weight whil e
eating this way—once I got rid of most of my excess fat, that is. I discovered new physical abilities, as well. My balance, coordination, and de xterity dramatically improved somehow, even at
the beginning, before I had been active much at all. My aerobic exercise  had always been limited by my breathing capacity, because
I would lose my breath long before my muscles would get enough of a workout to work ou t my heart. Now, in retrospect and in comparison, it was like I had been running on dirty fu el when I exercised before. Suddenly, aerobic
workouts felt so “clean” and “crisp. ” I felt like I could go forever (but my  heart wasn’t used to it, so I took it gradually). I could
breathe really deeply and not have that sick and dirty feeling at the  beginning. It was and still is great. Now when I’m exercising, I
feel happy and my body feels happy, which makes me happier, which gives me more  energy and motivation to keep exercising,
which makes me even happier, and so on … I love it. I’ve never felt like thi s before. Until I was following Dr. Graham’s program for a while, I never was a ble to do full-on push ups, even though I used to
bodybuild a bit in college and could do hundreds of bent-knee push-ups in various han d arrangements when doing martial arts in
high school. I discovered that I could do a full push-up after eating this wa y for a time, and I worked on them to see how many I
could do. I got up to 23 in a row before I moved onto something else. I later went back to push-ups, going airborne this time by quickly powering th e pushing so that at the top of my full push-up
my hands and toes hop off the ground while keeping my full body tight and straig ht. I got up to 15 in a row before I got sidetracked
with pull-ups. I got a pull-up/chin-up bar for myself and couldn’t even pull my self up enough to make a movement at first—as had been the
case all my life. My husband showed me how to help myself with a step stool an d after a month, I could lift myself halfway up. Exciting. It wasn’t much longer before one day I pulled myself al l the way up—without the step stool. My chin was all the way
above that bar on my own—not just above but high  above, so the bar was at my chest and my chin was above the door. Not long
after that, I became hooked on Ashtanga yoga practice, so I haven’t c ontinued with the chin-ups much since. I’m having so much
fun. I went surfing for the first time ever about a year into the 80/10/10  lifestyle. I did pretty darn well, especially for a then thirty-
eight-year-old mom who had only ridden a skateboard a few times (for only a few  feet each time), a boogie board once, and a
surfboard not at all. I stood up and rode the very first wave. I was catching l ittle waves on my own and riding after only about 45
minutes. Cool. I belonged to a health club for a while about a year into 80/10/10  and was surprised to find myself, a petite 5'2", then 98-
pound woman, lifting about the same weight or more than the businessmen t here, without effort. I was more surprised to find that
some days I could just keep adding more and more weight, seemingly to no end. I woul d go with small increments, so on those
days, I usually ended up getting tired from the number of reps before the wei ght ever got to be too heavy. Big guys were always there lifting tons of weight in order to build m ore muscle and get more “cut”…and then there’s little old
me lifting relatively minute amounts of weight while my muscle s just burst out. I can actually feel my muscles growing during m y “off”
time, and they don’t get sore if I eat fruit afterwards like Dr. Graham s uggests. It makes me feel bad for them—if only they would
do their exercises properly and follow Dr. Graham’s program, they’ d get much better results for their time and effort. These days, I no longer go to the health club, as I’ve gotten more into bodyw eight exercises, Ashtanga yoga, aerial fabric,
dance, and other things. I also have free weights at home and at work, if I dec ide that I want to use them. The machines are fun, but
they aren’t “calling” me right now. This Is Eeeeeasy …
I have found this way of eating is much, much, much easier, quicker, and mor e efficient than any other I’ve tried. Life itself has also
become easier overall. Not only do I have greater peace of mind, increased phy sical abilities, increased energy, and greater health and happiness, but my personal needs are so much simpler and easier to meet t han before. I have more time and resources to spend
on other things. My life is very full of activities and responsibiliti es, so this improvement really helps. I know that there is no way I could have done all that I have done and all that  I am doing, if I were still eating any other way. Since beginning Dr. Graham’s program, I started homeschooling my  gifted and dyslexic son with self-created custom curricula,
started two corporations with my husband, organized a local branch of our chur ch, was ordained as one of the clergy, and
counseled members of our congregation. I have also started a homeschooling  support group, a raw food support group, and
organized regular raw food potlucks, all with corresponding websites. I am still doing all of these things now, and I am also writing two books, filmi ng a video/TV series, working on building up my
fitness level, doing occasional work for long-standing clients from my ol d consultancy, and of course, continuing to maintain terrific
and loving relationships with both my husband and my son. Now I find it much easier to go places for the day, or even a few days. I have le ss stuff to take with me. I no longer need to
walk around with a water bottle on a shoulder strap so I always have wat er. I don’t even use it during the day now. I still drink
water in the morning and after intense exercise, but I don’t find th e need for it otherwise. My body regulates its temperature better,
so I don’t need to take as many clothing options with me when going out, eith er. Because of my autoimmune condition, I used to get sunburned almost in minu tes, at times even in the shade, whereas now I
can stay in the sun without a burn  ten times longer than I used to. My skin is not tan yet, but it’s not pas ty anymore. I don’t need to
desperately seek out the shade at the beach, or figure out which hat will  stay on and give me adequate protection. I can actually take
walks on the beach without all the cover-up gear and  out of the shade. I only use a sun hat if I’m out in the full sun during midda y. For the first time, I can go to the farmer’s market in the afternoon wit hout a hat and no burn. My hair is just getting silkier and better looking—without shamp oo or conditioner. W ow. My skin, teeth, and nails have never
looked or felt better either. Amazing, because while I brush and f loss my teeth and bathe daily with water, I haven’t used shampoo,
conditioner, face soap, body soap, toothpaste, deodorant, makeup, lotion, sunscreen, bug repe llant, or anything but water on my
body (except dish soap on my hands) for over two and a half years now. Funny—just some scrubbing and water. Who’d have
thought. My skin has never been smoother or more lovely than it is now, and I am vir tually free of the acne that I’ve had ever since
puberty. People comment frequently now on how my skin “glows,” how healt hy I look, and how pretty my hair is, wanting to touch
it and do things with it. I haven’t had people wanting to do that with my  hair since I was a very young child. Eating this way requires little food preparation. All I have to do is put my  fruit for the day in a box, and maybe grab some
salad and tomatoes if I don’t have enough at work already, and go. No need to slice, spread, arrange, layer, bag, or cook, transfer,
clean, etc., as with cooked food. Of course, you can make the 80/10/10rv  food fancy enough for any gourmet undertaking if you
want, but you don’t have to go through all that every day just to


 the same. Roger Bannister broke through the “M-field” of the
four -minute mil e, and soon afte r his success, many more runners made the
same accomplishment. Neural network:  T he interlocking patterns of interacting neurons within
the nervous system. Neur otransmitters:  Brain chemic als (hormones, etc.) that regulate
neuronal transmission throughout the nervous system. V ery slight chemical
changes can result in major sub jective and objective alterations  in emotion,
thought, or behavior. This is  the prime area of current research in
psychiatry. Nonduality:  Historically, all observers who have reached a consciousness
level ov er 600 have described the reality now suggested by advanced
scientific theory. When the limitation of a fixed locus of perception is
transcended, the re is no longer an illusion of separation, nor of space and
time as we know  them. All things exist simultaneously in the unmanifest,
enfolded, implicit universe, expressing itself as the manifest, unfolded,
explicit percept ion of form. These forms in reality have n o intrinsic,
independent exi stence but are the product of perception (that is, we merely
experience the content of our own minds). On the level of nond uality, there
is obser ving but no observer, as subject and object are one. Y ou-and-I
becomes the One Self experienc ing all as divine. At level 700, it  can be said
only that “All Is.” The state is one of Beingness; all is conscious ness, which
is infinite, which is God and which has no parts or a beginning or end. The physical body is a manifestation of the One Self, w hich, in
experiencing this dimension, had temporarily for gotten its reality, thuspermitting the illusion of a thre e-dimensional world. The body  is merely a
means o f comm unication; to identify oneself with the body as “I” is the fate
of th e unenlightened, who then e rroneously deduce that they are mortal and
subject t o death. Death itself is an illusion, based on the false id entification
with the body as  “I.” In nondual ity, consciousness experiences i tself as both
manifest and unmanifest, yet there is no experiencer. In this Reality, the
only thing that has a beginning and an end is the act of percepti on itself. In
the i llusory world, we are like t he fool who believes that thing s come into
existence when he opens his eyes and cease to exist when he closes them. Nonlinear:  U npredictably irregular in time, “noisy,” nonperiodic, random,
and stochastic. Illustrated by mathematical series such as formulized
stochastic evolution equations of the form dx ( t ) dt = F ( xt ) + w ( t ), where w ( t )
is th e noise ter m of the stocha stic process. The term also d escribes the
mathematics of chaotic signals, including the statistical analy sis of time
series for deterministic nonlinear systems. Nonlinear  me ans dif fuse or
chaotic, not in accordance with probabilistic logical theory or m athematics,
not solvable by dif ferential equations. This is the subject of the science of
chaos theory, which has given rise to a whole new non-Newtonian
mathematics. Phase space:  A map that af fo rds the condensation of time-space data into a
pattern in multiple dimensions. A Poincaré map is the graphic depiction of a
slice through a multidimensional pattern that demonstrates the underlying
attractor. Positionality:  Positionalities are structures that set the entire thinking
mechanism in motion and activate its content. Positionalities are programs,
not the real Sel f. The world ho lds an endless array of positions that are
arbitrary presumptions and totally erroneous. Primordial positionalities are:
(1) ideas have significance and importance ; (2) ther e is a dividing line
between opposites ; (3) ther e is a value of authorship, su ch that thoughts ar e
valuable because they ar e “mine” ; (4) thinking is necessary for contr ol, and
survival depend s on contr ol. Al l positionalities are voluntary and can be
surrendered out of love. The Presence of God as Love is self- revealing as
the duality of perception ce ases as a consequence of surrendering
positionalities. Love is therefor e the doorway between the linear and thenonlinear domains. The spiritual will is enforced and activated by love and
devotion and its willingness to surrender. Love is without form  and is that
capacity through  which one bec omes willing, out of that love, to surrender
one’ s positionalities to God. The surrender of willfulness/positionality
brings peace in all circumstances. Right-brain:  Genera lly meaning “holistic”; enabling such functions as
evaluation, intuition, and comprehension of significance, meaning, and
inference. Nonlinear; operating from patterns and relationships rather than
through the logical sequences of Newtonian causality. The ri ght brain is
assumed to deal with wholes rather than parts. Like an analog computer, it
deals with processes and is g enerally capable of operating without the
necessity of time reference. Rig ht-brain perception detects essence within a
complex field of data that mig ht not otherwise lend itself to meaningful
cognitive analysis—such general phenomena as “falling in love” or
creativity. (The terms left-brain  and right-brain  originated in reference to
dif ferent styles of perception once thought to be localized to certain cerebral
areas, but as Ka rl Pribram has s hown, the brain acts holographically rather
than by precise anatomic localization.) Scientific:  The method of inquiry into nature specifically designed to
derive predictable laws of physical properties. Modern scientific theory
began in the 16th century with René Descartes’ s Discourse on Method,
followed by Francis Bacon’ s inductive inquiry and Isaac Newton’ s
Principia. J ohn Locke f irst used the te rm scientific  and proposed that
certainty about the interaction of physical events was based on data arrived
at by physical sensation. These concepts resulted in a m odel of a
mechanical, predictive universe, but this view was upset by a modern
quantum theory,  which states tha t at the subatomic level, the laws of chance
replace deterministic laws. History has noted that science does not advance by an extension of
established theo ries, but instead takes leaps by a shift of par adigm. The
inference is that science is mere ly a reflection of a point of view, and there
is n o real sepa ration between observer and observed. Relativity theory
further states that matter equals ener gy, depending on one’ s point of
reference. David Bohm’ s holographic model predicates an explicit order
based on  an implicit order. For m becomes the consequence of inference,space and time are nonlocalize d, and there is no “here” or “there” (the
nonlocality of quantum wholeness). The universe thus described contains
an infinite number of dimensions and higher -dimension realities. Self  (capital S ): The Self is beyond, yet innate in, all form—timeless,
without beginning or end, changeless, permanent, and immortal. Out of it
arises awarenes s, consciousnes s, and an infinite condition of  “at home-
ness.” It is the ultimate subjec tivity from which everyone’ s sense of “I”
arises. Strange attractor:  A term coined by David Ruelle and Floris T akens in
1971, in a theor y that stated that three independent motions ar e all that is
necessary to produce the entir e complexity of nonlinear patter ns of the
universe. A strange attractor is a  pattern within a phase space. The pattern is
traced by  the dynamic points in time of a dynamic system. The c entral point
of an attractor field is analogous to the center of an orbit. Attractors are
fractal and therefore of infini te length. The graphics of at tractors are
depicted by taking a cross se ction of a so-called Poincaré map. The
topographical shaping of phase  space creates an attractor such  as a torus,
like a folded donut. Universe:  The re m ay be seen to be an infinite number of dimensions to ou r
universe. The familiar three-dimensional universe of conventional
consensus is only one, and is merely an illusion created by our senses. The
space be tween planetary bodies is not empty but filled with a se a of ener gy;
the potential ener gy in one square inch can be said to be as great as that of
the whole mass of the physica l universe. David Bohm has p roposed the
model of enfolded/unfolded sta tes of being, with an explicit order and an
implicit order of reality, comparable to the manifest/unmanifest states of
reality th at have been described for centuries by those who have achieved
Enlightenment and experienced nonduality. In the causality model...... the A
 B
 C is  the unfolded, explicit, man ifest, discernible universe
of form. The ABC is the enfolded, implicit, unmanifest potential beyond,
which is the

organism. One of the mechanisms of destruction in the body
endotoxins during starvation is the enzyme activity
special cells - macrophages. Even at 24-36-hour dry
starvation the activity of phagocytes can be increased threefold. In addition, their activity varies throughout the year. Most
activity of phagocytes in May and June, and the least - in November and February. They
perform phagocytic (from the Greek words "eater cells")
function. as a result of this process, the decay of unhealthy
and damaged tissue - autolysis. With the help of autolysis are absorbed and removed those substances

organism. Autolysis under dry starvation begins to run from 2-3 -
day of hunger, but reaches its peak with the 8 th to 10 th day. I already wrote what has toxic properties, our
tap water. When the body does not enter the food and "dead"
poisoned water, then in fact our body gets the full
153
153holiday. during the dry fasting is not no enema
needed, since the absorption of toxins from the gut is absent for
due to lack of water. Therefore, when this kind of fasting is not
such intoxication, what happens in other types of fasting. Accordingly, a dry hunger physically moved so much easier. The third myth. In the dry fasting can cause problems in the kidneys,
since they bear a great burden. One of the most dangerous
methods of cleaning - dry starvation. When a person is on
diet or undergoing a course of fasting, the number of
liquid, by contrast, is increased. After all, the water output from
body excess salt, toxins (toxins). Waiver of water - a dangerous
stupidity. Comes dehydration and intoxication
decay products, rather than cleansing. Ordinary water from - the tap in the modern city brings
catastrophic damage due to inadequate cleaning
industrial waste. In addition, it is usually chlorinated. From
such water is rapidly released free chlorine, chlorine dioxide
and other compounds, oxidizing in the body much that
oxidize does not need it. In addition, chlorine kills the beneficial bacteria
synthesizing essential vitamins. When boiling destroys bacteria, coagulated colloid
particles of dirt, water softens evaporate volatile organic
substances and of free chlorine. But the increase in the concentration of salts,
heavy metals and pesticides. Chlorine is associated with organic matter, with
heated, turns into a terrible poison - a powerful carcinogen
dioxin. Dioxins are more toxic than cyanide - to 68 times. We drink boiled water, but it is slowly killing us. On standing water for at least three hours, reduced concentration
free chlorine, but in practice does not remove iron ions, salt
heavy metals, carcinogenic organochlorine compounds,
radionuclides. Distilled water (vapor passed
state) is unsuitable for permanent use, because it does not
contains the trace elements necessary for an organism. Permanent
its use leads to impaired immune system,
heart rate, the process of digestion. Filtering
Water also can not give the desired effect. To know
what filter to buy (carbon, membrane, bactericidal,
complex), we first need to have information about the composition of the water. Also
requires regular replacement of filters, because after a certain
time he begins to give back to the water accumulated pollution
and breeding in their microflora. In the dry starvation
the body does not need to recycle water to the extent to which
this was done when eating and drinking during normal operation. Obviously, the kidney and liver under dry starvation almost
complete rest, which is not the fasting with water. When
dry starvation of their recovery is much faster. Therefore,
154
154the effectiveness disappears by itself, but there is still a
a concept as feasible. For example, some people can not
afford dry fasting for many reasons, and starvation on
water can sustain. Having a 14-day fasting on water, I successfully went from
starvation and began to eat normally. Then he felt the weight of
in the kidney area. Besides, before I even knew they were there with me or
no. and there is nothing surprising about the last 10 days of fasting
I'm just starved for water, and the kidneys had to work hard. But other
organs of the body is successfully carried out maintenance work. When leaving after seven days of dry discomfort not
observed. Try it yourself. After the dry fasting body
more viable, more quickly restored, the better the results. Average time of dry fasting can stand it, but it is necessary
careful preparation and training. Talking about the dangers of kidney dry fasting means not to understand
processes that occur during fasting. Correct to
would ask, but do not cause a modern drinks and our water from
- Tap water harm the kidneys. kidneys in our body are one
of the main organs of selection. And they can be called direct
excretory organs - they filter the blood, display excess
water, waste materials generated as a result of exchange
processes in the cells of the body, unused material,
resulting from digestion of food, medicines, etc. All this
diluted with water, filtered from the blood plasma. Must
remember that almost all the liquid entering the body,
gets into our blood stream, goes through a series of transformations in the body
(Purified, structured, is heated or cooled), which is
spent a lot of energy, and only after that
transformed into the urine. Therefore, the quality of drinking water is very strongly
affects our health. But our kidneys - is not a
a separate body, living an independent life, they are
part of our body. and it is strong enough
body. To damage the kidney with a dry fasting, it is necessary
to try very hard. Their injury - most often a consequence
failure of other organs and systems, respectively, and the need to treat
the whole body. To cure kidney disease
need to clean up the activity of the organism as a whole. One of the
ways to restore lost health - dry starvation. It
allows the body to self-correct all violations
in its activities. It affects not only at a certain
organ or system, and provides recreation impact directly on all
organs and systems of our body. In most renal diseases, dry fasting makes
significant positive effect. If under normal medical
treatments load on the kidneys does not decrease, but
Conversely, increases due to the selection through their products
155
155the collapse of drugs, the fasting load
kidney is significantly reduced. So, if in the first days of fasting
there are significant changes in urine even in healthy people
at the exit from fasting observed persistent normalization of
urine. Urine is a sick person comes quickly to normal
state - disappears protein, erythrocytes, leukocytes, decreases
amount of salts that are bred in the urine. Thus, the treatment
glomerulonephritis in order to remove the aggravation, which is usually
manifested higher amounts of protein, red blood cells, swelling,
need long-term treatment of a variety of drugs. When
application of fasting at 3-day 4 the patient decreases
edema, normalization of output of fluid. At the exit
from starvation of the urine is completely normal in a few
days and then remained normal. Very effectively dry starvation in inflammatory
diseases of the kidneys and urinary tract. The effect
occurs regardless of the causative agent. Thus, even
in the old days dry fasting has been used successfully for
treatment of sexually transmitted diseases. When pyelonephritis starvation
quickly reduces inflammation, reduces violations
urination (frequent or rare, painful), decrease
and disappear back pain, lower abdomen, normal analysis
urine (disappear leukocytes, increased protein, bacteria and salt). It must be remembered that the kidneys are very closely related to the liver. Most often, kidney disease - is a consequence of liver failure
properly perform its function. Therefore, it is particularly important
hold cleaning procedures prior to starvation and diet
after. In most cases, properly conducted dry starvation
gives good results in most renal diseases. Myth Four. Fasting - a very great stress to the body. Throughout a person's life is accompanied by stress. Stress - a special state body, which is characterized by
enhanced "combat readiness" and increased resistance to
all without exception damaging environmental factors. All of our modern life - continuous stress, and how great
stress for the organism is an operation, especially for young
women, but most importantly - after such stress is the cause
disease. Yes, hunger - a stress for the organism. Just like the cold. But stress is not
necessarily mean harm. It's one thing when people go hungry because he has nothing to
and gets a real threat of starvation. under such conditions can be
seriously ill two days later. Something similar happens when
persons lost or in separate experiments
over itself in the form of compliance with trendy diets. It is quite another thing -
156
156dry limotherapy when a person abstains from taking
food and
