 them in the freezer for daily eating. This frozen liver may be
chewed or swallowed whole, followed by a sip of juice if desired. Some prefer
to allow the liver to thaw and then to place a spoonful at a time in the mouth
and chew it or swallow it whole with a sip of juice. 2. Liver may be placed in the blender with carrot, pineapple, or tomato juice
(and seasoning of one's preference if desired), blended, strained to remove the
fiber if preferred, and used as a morning "pep-up" drink. Meat
(cooked and commercially produced)
The cancer patient w ill want to give up cooked and commercially produced meat
such as beef, pork, lamb and fowl immediately (except for raw liver — see above). Cooked meat is harmful for the cancer patient, as the very same enzymes used in its
digestion are needed for fighting and digesting the cancer. All natural, self-made
enzymes your body can produce should be used to fight the cancer. Commercial
meat should be avoided for another reason; it has a high female sex hormone
content. For commercial reasons most animals, especially beef and fowl produced in
the United States have been fed large quantities of hormones. Since an
overabundance of female sex hormones initiate cancer, meat of this type should be
excluded from the cancer patient's diet. After being on Metabolic Medicine's Cancer Cure Diet for 9 to 12 months, when
the tumors are under control, one may gradually resume consumption of meat as long
as one's metabolic type requires it. Adequate enzymes and hydrochloric acid are
taken to digest the meat. (see Dr. Kelley's Self Test for the Different Metabolic Types

be extremely wise to make every effort to find a source that can provide meat, which
has been produced without chemical feed, hormones, antibiotics, and pesticide
residues. P ro te in  A fte r  6 M o n th s  O n  C a n c e r D ie t
After the first six months on Metabolic Medicine's Cancer Cure Diet the cancer
patient must increase the quantity of protein in his diet. At this time not less than sixty
grams of protein daily should be included in the diet. You should, of course, continue
all the above approved protein, but now you may include (or increase) such proteins
as those found in deep sea fish, all forms of seeds, nuts (except peanuts), nut butters,
whole grains, whole grain breads, and homemade, raw (unpasturized) goats' milk
yogurt and/or buttermilk. Seeds and Sprouts
Raw seeds and sprouts are good foods for cancer patients, and may be eaten after
1:00 p.m. We freely use brown sesame, sunflower and pumpkinseeds. Many people
enjoy sprouted seeds, such as alfalfa and mung beans, buckwheat, wheat and
soybeans. The most "living foods" are sprouted seeds. When seeds are soaked in water, their
protective enzyme inhibitors are removed and the enzymes, which have been
"asleep," become active, and in three days the nutritional values of the seeds are
increased tremendously. The seeds also become much easier to digest. For the best in
nutrition, be sure to eat your sprouts raw. Eat as many as you desire. Beans
Dry beans of all types are a good source of food for the cancer patient, and may be
used two or three times a week at anytime of the day. The best way we've found to
prepare them is to cook them at a temperature of 200° F. We place two cups of dried
beans (washed) in a bean pot to which we add five cups of RO filtered or distilled
water, five garlic cloves, two tablespoons of olive oil, 1  teaspoon of sea salt or kelp,
and 1/8 teaspoon of cayenne pepper. We place the pot, (covered), in an oven
overnight at 200° F. 66

Dr. Rawdon's Metabolic Body Repair and Rebuilding Metabolic Vegetable Juice
Formula:
Daily take 100 oz. raw freshly extracted vegetable juice. 32 oz carrot juice
16 oz celery juice
16 oz apple juice
16 oz tomato juice
8 oz romaine lettuce
4 oz beet juice
4 oz cabbage juice
4 oz green bean juice
Vegetable juices are the builders of the body. Juice is better than the whole
vegetable because so much energy is used to digest the whole vegetable. Juice has a
proper balance of vitamins and minerals in a concentrated solution. We recommend
that the juice be made fresh and used immediately. Fresh raw fruit and fruit juices are
67

the cleansers of the body. The cancer patient may eat as much as desired of fresh raw
fruit or fresh fruit juices. Small amounts of dried unsulfered fruit may also be taken. At least one quart of carrot and one pint of celery juice should be taken each day. As
much other fresh raw vegetable juice in volume may be taken as desired. One should
consider alfalfa, beet, cabbage, cucumber, dandelion, endive, lettuce, parsley, potato,
spinach, and turnip juice. Vegetable juices are the builders of the body. Juice is better

The cancer patient may eat, in addition to his fresh raw vegetable and fruit juices,
all the fresh fruit and fresh raw salad he or she can hold. These are good for lunch or
dinner meals. The body needs bulk, as it is necessary to keep the digestive tract in
good working order. For at least the first eight months on Metabolic Medicine's
Cancer Cure Diet, lemon should be used in preference to vinegar on salads. Unrefined, organic flaxseed oil may be used as salad dressing. Dr. N. W. Walker's
books, Fresh Vegetable and Fruit Juices  and Diet and Salad Suggestions,  are
recommended reading for every cancer patient. Ph a s e  III
MINERALS
Trace minerals are absolutely essential for enzyme function. No matter how
skilled we are in the production of mineral supplements, minerals from foods are
better utilized and balanced in unprocessed whole foods. Dr. Kelley daily uses a
multi-grain porridge. Purchase from a health food store organic seeds, one pound of
each grain, seed and/or nut. Mix well in a large container or clean bag. Keep in a
cool (below 80 degrees) or in a refrigerator. MULTI-GRAIN PORRIDGE

they	don’t	have

confronted	by	a	genuine	love. There	are	terrible	things	in	the	news	today,	but
as	much	darkness	as	there	is	out	there,	there	is	more	love

that’s	what	the	bigger	problems	of	the	world	are	here	for,	in	some	way:	They
challenge	us	to	dig	deeper	into	ourselves	for	who	we	really	are	and	how	we
might	choose	to	live	differently. Martin	Luther	King,	Jr.,	said	that	it’s	time	to
inject	a	new	kind	of	love	into	the	veins	of	human	civilization. That	love

what	it	actually	means. Does	it	mean	that	we’re	supposed	to	give	all	of	our
possessions	to	the	poor. How	does	that	work	in	terms	of	our	worldly
responsibilities. Are	we	not	supposed	to	have	a	home	for	our	children. Aren’t
we	supposed	to	provide	for	them. And	is	it	bad	to	enjoy	nice	things. In
A	Course	in	Miracles,
	it	says:	“To	have,	give	all	to	all. ”	But	sometimes
you	look	at	the	material	world	and	think,
Well,	surely	it	can’t	mean	that…. The	line	I	heard	in	my	head	that	night	was	not	“Give	away	everything	you

look	like	if	we	did. We’ve	been	so	thoroughly	programmed	to	look	out	for	number	one,	asthough	“me”	is	so	much	more	important	than	“we. ”	But	the	shift	from	living
for	ourselves	to	living	for	others	is	clearly	the	spiritual	imperative	calling
humanity	back	to	the	garden. What,	then,	about	healthy	boundaries. Does	living	for	others	mean	I’m	to
give	everyone	everything—as	in	my	time,	my	energy,	my	money,	my	heart. I’ve	tried	to	do	that	…	be	the	paragon	of	self-sacrifice	…	never	having	time
for	myself,	making	myself	wrong	for	wanting	to	take	care	of	me,	always
running	around	trying	to	please	or	do	for	others. And	it	got	me	nowhere. If
anything,	it	left	me	angry,	resentful,	vulnerable	to	thieves,	and	feeling	much

are
	loving;	they	show	respect	both	to	the	person	who
sets	them	and	to	the	person	who’s	asked	to	honor	them. I	think	it’s	best	to
seek	a	balanced	life,	at	peace	with	ourselves	and	our	own	loved	ones;	then
when	we	do	turn	our	attention	to	the	world,	we	can	bring	so	much	more	to	it. We	bring	a	higher	version	of	ourselves. According	to
A	Course	in	Miracles,
	sacrifice	has	no	place	in	God’s

is
	meaningful	service	to

 experience a thought. The
nature of consciousness is that it has no particular
form; it is without form. Its content is with form, but
the field of consciousness itself is like space, having
no particular locality. This will be important later
when we discuss one of the techniques for handling 303 PAIN AND SUFFERING
pain, which can be handled both locally and generally. There are several ways to handle pain and the spe
cific sensation and experience of it. Where we are as
a being with the experience of pain, and how we
evolve in our own consciousness, will determine
whether the pain involves suffering or not. The pain is
one thing, and the suffering is another. The first thing to eliminate is the belief system
that pain equals suffering because that sets up a
whole series of programs that need to be undone. Pain is one thing, and it is quite possible to be with
pain yet be totally indifferent to it. It is possible for
pain to exist in the body and yet have relatively little
or no experience of the pain or suffering with it at all
because of an analgesic or altered (e. g., hypnotic)
state of mind. It is as though the pain is still present,
but one is not connected with the pain. The pain
exists on its own but without the person being at the
effect of it. In other words, it is not necessary to be
the victim of the pain. One can be with the pain in
such a way that does not involve suffering or any kind
of agony. To realize that this is possible is the first step
that leads one out ofit. It is the letting go of the belief
that pain and suffering are the same thing. An example is the belief that going to the dentist is
necessarily painful. At one time in my life, many years
ago, going to the dentist was agonizing. I remember
that I always put off going because my pain threshold
was so low. I literally had to have analgesia to get my
teeth cleaned; I was pain prone. What is it that sets our pain threshold or our readi
ness to experience pain. As the years went by, I learned 304 HEALING AND RECOVERY
various spiritual and consciousness techniques and
began to apply them to pain. The experience of pain
began to diminish, and much to my surprise, I could go
to the dentist and experience only moderate pain
instead of agony. Gradually the pain became mild and
then only just a discomfort. When I go to the dentist
now, I don't even notice any discomfort. It seems as
though I am in the chair for only a minute, and then I
am out and say, "Are you done already. I can hardly
believe you are done already. " At the end of this chapter we will discuss some
self-hypnosis techniques, a kind of autosuggestion,
that will reinforce what we have learned, such as how
to utilize a somewhat altered state of consciousness
on our behalf, how to come from a suggestible space
to learn more quickly, how to relieve pain, and how it
is a medium for quickly educating ourself. When you
next go to the dentist, you may not have much time to
learn these techniques, so we share some ways to
speed them up. The first thing to address is the handling of acute
pain. A person is walking along and suddenly sprains
an ankle, resulting in agonizing pain; or they break
their leg or suddenly have a gallbladder attack, renal
colic, or a coronary; or they just have an ordinary acci
dent, such as barking the shin, or hitting the head on
something, and there is that stunning moment of pain. How does one handle that acute situation. We will
reveal a technique to use in dealing with a variety of ill
nesses as well as in healing both acute and chronic pain. There is a shock when we suddenly ftnd ourselffac
ing an accident, such as scalding ourselfby pouring hot 305 PAIN AND SUFFERING
water on our hand, or burning ourself on the stove. The
technique that we will get a lot of mileage from is the
whole concept of letting go of resistance. We want to
look at the benefit of letting go and compare it with
what the mind usually does. The mind normally resists
an experience out of the expectation of suffering. It
already has a program set up: "Pain means suffering,
and I'm going to resist it. " The fantasy is that if we
resist it, we will eliminate it. The first thing we have to know is that the relief
of pain and suffering comes rapidly by going 180
degrees in the opposite direction-by capitulating
and letting go of resisting the pain. How does this
work in everyday life. We will provide some clinical·
examples of rapid healing resulting from techniques
that are completely different from those ordinarily
used by the mind in an average situation. To let go ofresistance means to completely be with
the event and totally surrender to the sensation. It
means to ignore the thoughts that we may be having
about it. Instead of thinking about it, we go right into
the direct experience ofthe sensation and totally let go
of resisting it. For example, if we get burned by acci
dent and let go of resisting the sensation, at first it will
be like an overwhelm. We open the doors, the pain
rushes in, and we totally surrender to it and let go of
resisting it. The way to do this is to say, "More, more,
more' The way to hold this in mind so that this is
acceptable is to know that there is only so much pain
in any experience. We open the door to it and let it run
out rapidly. "I let go ofresisting this experience. I let go
ofresisting being with it. I ignore the thoughts because 306 HEALING AND RECOVERY
the thoughts are not going to be useful. Instead I total
ly surrender and allow myself to experience it totally. " Itis as ifthe doors open, there is a rush, and the pain is
totally experienced out rapidly in a very few minutes. I remember twisting my ankle in San Francisco. It
was a severe twist that ordinarily would have required
seeing an orthopedist, getting the ankle taped, or
maybe even having a cast put on for six weeks or so. Instead, I sat down on a park bench, just closed my
eyes, and surrendered to it. It came in waves of excru
ciating pain. IfI had resisted it, I would have ended up
in a cast. In other words, ifone resists the pain, it'turns
an acute pain into a chronic condition. I just sat down
on the park bench and let it swamp over me. I surren
dered to it and waves of pain came over me. Yet, curi
ously enough, it was devoid of suffering because I was
choosing to experience the experience. In doing that,
I was the master of the experience and no longer the
victim. I was the one saying,"I choose to experience it;
give me more of it. " As a result of that, the amount of
suffering involved was really minimal. The alleviation of
pain was very rapid, and within three to four minutes,
I was up and walking again. The pain had decreased to
a very minimal level, and as I continued walking, I kept
letting go of resisting the pain. At a later date when I broke my left foot, I did the
same thing. When I was chopping wood, a huge oak log
fell on my left foot and crushed all the bones across the
top of it. A short time later, at Christmas, I was back
dancing in the ballroom. My foot was never in a cast; I
did nothing about it except consciously choose to let
go of resisting the experience. After that, I had an injury 307 PAIN AND SUFFERING
that resulted in an amputation. Again, there was the
same shock of the experience and then the knowing of
how to handle it by letting go of resisting the experi
ence, constantly letting go of resisting the sensations. As I did that, what the world would call miraculous
happened right before my eyes. The ftrst thing I did
after inadvertently cutting my thumb off with a circu
lar saw was to instantly stop resisting the experience. I
just stood still and allowed the experience to sweep in
over me, and as I did that, within seconds the bleeding
stopped. I have the piece of board that I was cutting,
and there are just eight drops of blood on it. By letting
go of resisting the experience, the digital artery that
had been severed should have pulsated in a grotesque
manner, but no such thing happened. A friend who severely burned himself in the
kitchen just stood still and consciously chose not to
resist that burn; the pain of the burn was gone in a mat
ter of a minute or two. Later, there was no blister at all. Ordinarily, it would have become a big water blister
and taken months to heal, but the only thing that hap
pened was a discoloration. One time, a cabinetmaker in one of my classes
burned both of his hands. He followed the same tech
nique, instantly letting go of the resisting


, called choriocarcinoma. A
type of lymphatic cancer known as Burkitt’s lymphoma, found mostly in certain areas of Africa,
has also been cured in some 50% of cases. An additional area of success has been the control of
many acute childhood leukemias, where some 50% of child patients survived over five years. Testicular cancer is also claimed to be curable, and indeed a good number of recoveries are on
record. Unfortunately these successes only refer to rare kinds of malignancy. The most common
types, such as breast, prostate, lung cancer, and more recently colon cancer, have not shown a
good response, even though chemotherapy is almost always administered in such cases. A telling and alarming summary of the use of chemotherapy in late cases was given as long
ago as 1972 by Dr. Victor Richards in his book, Cancer—the Wayward Cell: Its Origins, Nature,
and Treatment (Berkeley,University of California Press, 1972). In his book Richards states that
while even palliation  (pain relief and mild tumor shrinkage) occurs only “for brief duration in
about 5 to 10% of the cases, chemotherapy serves an extremely valuable role in keeping patients
oriented toward proper medical therapy, and prevents the feeling of being abandoned by the Copyright © Charlotte Gerson, 2007. All rights reserved.

www.thegersonway.comphysician. These potentially useful drugs may also prevent the spread of cancer quackery...”
Deploring the use of chemotherapy, Ralph W. Moss, Ph.D., writes in his book, The Cancer
Industry: Unravelling the Politics,  Paragon House, New York, 1989: “In Richards’ view it is
worthwhile to risk putting patients through possible nausea, vomiting, dizziness, hair loss, mouth
sores, and even premature death simply in order to keep them ‘oriented toward proper medical
therapy’ and away from ‘cancer quackery.’” In other words stopping them from looking for help
other than what is provided by orthodox medicine. In most chemotherapy drug packages the
warning states that this very drug is known to cause cancer. The seriousness of chemotherapy’s toxic effects may be best seen in an oncology nurses’
manual. It warns nurses who only prepare the drugs for administration that they may experience
“significant risk” of damage to the skin, reproductive abnormalities, hematologic (blood system)
problems, and liver and chromosomal lesions. Nurses are also instructed “to never eat, drink,
smoke, or apply cosmetics in the drug-preparation area.” (From Questioning Chemotherapy, by
Ralph W. Moss, Ph.D., Equinox Press, 2000.) Breast Implants
These are the choice of some breast cancer patients, mainly for cosmetic reasons, but they
can have serious health consequences. Of course it is understandable that post-mastectomy
patients wish to make up for the loss of one or both breasts. However, there are risks in the
procedure, depending on what materials are used for it. The worst choice is a silicone-filled pad,
which has been known to burst and release the silicone into the surrounding tissues. In one case
we have seen this caused serious toxicity in the entire chest area, as well as migraine headaches
and extreme weakness, to the point where the patient became bedfast. The Gerson treatment
cleared most of the trouble: the patient got rid of the migraines, regained her energy and was able
to function normally. If other fillers are used, bursting is less of a problem, except that the implant is still a foreign
material, which the body attempts to reject. It cannot do so, since the implant remains firmly in
place; this in turn causes constant irritation, which is particularly dangerous for patients who had
mastectomies for breast cancer. Weighing up the pros and cons of implants, it stands to reason that
cosmetic considerations are less important than the avoidance of a recurrence. Household Help
The only serious drawback of the Gerson treatment is that it is highly work-intensive, almost
the equivalent of a full time job. Much time, energy and sustained effort is needed to produce
10-13 eight-ounce glasses of freshly made juice a day every hour on the hour, besides preparing Copyright © Charlotte Gerson, 2007. All rights reserved.

www.thegersonway.comthree daily meals and coffee concentrate for enemas, plus securing the constant supply of large
amounts of organic produce needed for the smooth running of the program. The produce needs
to be washed and prepared for juicing and cooking, salads and vegetables have to be made ready
as near mealtimes as possible in order to safeguard their freshness—and of course all this is
accompanied by the constant washing of dishes. Moreover, this daily routine, taking up nearly
eight hours, must continue non-stop seven days a week. Obviously seriously ill patients, or even less ill ones, cannot cope with such a demanding
schedule. Irrespective of their condition, patients must rest if they are to heal. This cannot be
repeated too often, for many people, especially members of the patient’s family are not clear
about this. Healing, the body’s heroic effort to defeat disease requires energy; a sick person’s
already diminished energy must be reserved for that. In other words, a whole person is needed to fulfill the Therapy’s requirements. In many cases
a spouse or some other family member is willing and able to do the work, but the intensity of the
non-stop tasks will soon exhaust a single person. In this case a kitchen helper has to be hired and
trained. In fact it is best to have two helpers, each one working several days a week. Choosing the right helper is important. It is unwise to engage a nurse trained in allopathic
medicine, since she might not approve of the nutritional regime and could try to add items of
her choice. Likewise, a ‘gourmet cook’ would probably find the Gerson way of food preparation
difficult to handle. The ideal choice would be a kind and open-minded person, willing to be
trained in the exact requirements of the job. Some patients have found it helpful to approach
their Church to provide volunteers. The best way is to arrange for several volunteers to schedule
continuous assistance, so that they take turns if one or the other is unable to attend. Since the hourly preparation of juices with all the other tasks keeps the helper busy, a cleaner
may also be needed once or twice a week. As pointed out earlier (see Chapter 9, The Gerson
Household, pg. 95 ) no toxic cleaning materials are to be used in the patient’s home. After 8-12 months on the Therapy the patient is usually in a much better condition and can
take on a number of food preparation tasks, including juicing.<|eot_id|><|begin_of_text|>Summarize the following text section accurately and concisely. Maintain specific details and numerical information, and use anti-repetition mechanisms:

        The serum potassium level, as shown in the blood test result, does
not reflect the potassium status of the cell. Low serum potassium values may signify healing,
because the depleted tissues are reabsorbing potassium, while high figures may be found in
failures, because the tissues lose it. Thyroid and Lugol’s Solution
It is a fact, known since Dr. Gerson’s day, that most cancer patients are suffering from a low
basal metabolism. Much of the problem is caused by the chlorine widely used in the purification
of the water supply, and—worse still—by fluoride. Both remove iodine from the thyroid gland,
thus reducing its ability to function properly. The thyroid gland regulates the metabolic rate of the
organism, acting as its thermostat, being capable of raising temperature and producing fever; it
also affects the immune system as well as the proper functioning of all hormone systems. When
thyroid and iodine in the form of 1/2 strength Lugol’s solution are added to the patient’s intake,
the immune system becomes reactivated and healing can begin. The patient’s metabolic rate has
to be established for a correct dosage, but most cancer patients start with 5 grains of thyroid and
18 drops of Lugol’s solution (3 drops in each of 1 orange and 5 carrot/apple juices) a day, for
the first 3-4 weeks only. Then the amounts are reduced to 2 or 2 1⁄2 grains of thyroid and 12
drops of Lugol’s, and subsequently adjusted according to the Gerson doctor’s instruction. Patients suffering from non-malignant diseases use the less intensive therapy (see Chapter 19 ),
with much less thyroid and Lugol’s solution. Niacin : (common name for nicotinic acid, or Vitamin B-3) Niacin assists in the digestion
of protein and helps to open capillary circulation, thus bringing freshly oxygenated blood (from
the constant intake of fresh juices) to all body tissues. By improving circulation it also works to
reduce ascites (abdominal edema) and pain. The dosage is a 50 mg tablet 6 times daily, taken
during meals. This medication often causes the well-known “niacin flush,” a temporary reddening
of the face and upper chest area, with some itching. This is totally harmless and passes quickly. (Do NOT switch


 foods are broken down so that their nutrition andenergy can be used for cellular fuel. Without this the entire body becomes
weak, affecting all its functions. The body secretes various digestive enzymes in basically four places: the
mouth, stomach, pancreas and small intestines. The mouth, pancreatic and
intestinal enzymes are similar to each other and are alkaline in nature,
affecting carbohydrate, sugar and fat digestion. The stomach is the only acid
chamber in your body and its role is to start breaking down protein
structures. This is accomplished by HCL (hydrochloric acid) releasing pepsin. HCL and pepsin are acidic in nature. It is important to note here the
importance of bile and sodium bicarbonate, the former released by the
liver/gallbladder and the latter by the pancreas. These are alkalizing agents,
which now alkalize the acid stomach contents (called chyme) so that the
alkaline pancreatic and intestinal enzymes can finish up the job. If there is inadequate bile flow and inadequate sodium bicarbonate, the
acids from the chyme will neutralize the alkaline digestive enzymes from the
pancreas, halting proper food digestion or breakdown. The HCL will then
burn or inflame the walls of the intestines. This can eventually lead to ulcers
and intestinal “itis’s. ” Since acids neutralize alkalis, the alkaline digestive
enzymes of your pancreas and intestinal tract are inhibited from properly
digesting your foods. This causes fermentation and putrefaction, which now
becomes the process
that breaks down the remaining food particles, instead of
the proper enzyme action. This, of course, refeases much toxicity and
alcohol, which further impedes the proper breakdown of your foods into
building materials and fuels. This alcohol creates additional blood sugar
problems and acidosis. The function of the pancreas that directly relates to diabetes is performed
by the beta cells, which produce and release the insulin that assists in the
utilization of glucose fuel by the body. Insulin, being a protein-type
hormone, assists the transport of glucose through cell membrane walls. It is
important to note here that fructose from fruit moves through cell walls by
diffusion, not active transport, as in the case of glucose. This means that the
need for insulin to assist fructose into a cell is highly questionable, yet
diabetics are commonly told not to eat fruit because of its sugar. I have
always put my diabetic patients on fruits with tremendousfy positive results. Letting Others Do It For you
I’ve seen case after case where a loved one drags their mate into my clinic
and wants me to tell the other person what they have to do. They push theirailing friend or loved one into a detox program. They make the juices for
them, they prepare their food for them and they prepare their herbal
supplements for them. Nine times out of ten, this breeds failure. The sick
person’s heart and true desire to be well is not there. You must be a part of your own healing. This is partly why you get sick. If
you want to be well and healthy,
you
 must create this with your own desires
and actions, just as you would anything that you desire to experience or have
in life. It’s great to have your loved ones on your side in this process, but not to the
point of overshadowing your own desire and goals for yourself. If you want
to be well, it must come from
you. Become a shining example to the world of
just how powerful God really is. But first you must show yourself. The part of the pancreas called the Islets of Langerhans is where the beta
cells are found. As previously stated, these cells produce and release insulin. When this part of the pancreas becomes hypoactive from inflammation or
congestion, this can cause inadequate amounts of insulin to be produced. The Islets of Langerhans consist of three types of cells: alpha cells, which
secrete glucagon and raise blood glucose; beta cells, which secrete insulin,
lowering blood glucose levels; and delta cells, which secrete somatostatin. Somatostatin inhibits the secretion of insulin, glucagon, a growth hormone
from the anterior pituitary, and gastrin from the stomach. As previousfy
stated, in diabetes mellitus it is the beta cells that are affected. In both types of diabetes, but especially type I, this weakness in the
pancreas is usually passed on genetically. However, through one’s lifestyle,
pancreatic weakness can be created in this life time. This woufd be especially
true of type II or late onset diabetes. It might take several generations for a
weakness from inflammation or toxicity to actually cause diabetes. You
woufd probably experience hypoglycemia or gestational diabetes before this
would manifest as any permanent type of diabetes. Of course there is a broad
range of diabetes, as the degree of pancreatic weakness varies. Remember that
someone had to start this weakness originally. The question remains: “How
did they start it. ”
Diabetes is considered another autoimmune problem, where lymphocytes
attack the beta cells and destroy them. In my experience this is a
misunderstanding of the body’s protective mechanisms. Remember, your
immune system is designed to eliminate the weak. It does not attack itself forno reason. The allopathic medical community cannot find a reason for this
autoimmune response other than to say it is probably in the genes. However,
the real reason for this response becomes obvious when you understand that
in nature the strong survive while the weak perish. Nature never procreates
the weak. Nature eliminates it. I have seen diabetes created just from pancreatic flukes. Flukes are
parasites that can infiltrate the liver and pancreas. Cleaning out most of the
harmful parasites within the body is part of a good detoxification program. However, parasites do not originally create disease or tissue failure. They are
secondary to toxicity and tissue weakness. ADRENAL GLANDS

One of the most important relationships that is widely overlooked is that
between the pancreas and the adrenal glands. The cortex of the adrenal glands
produces andrenocortical hormones. Adrenal steroids called glucocorticoids
(namely cortisol and corticosterone), act principally on carbohydrate
metabolism. Cortisol and cortisone have many functions, including anti-
inflammatory and carbohydrate digestion or metabolism. This action is
catabolic in nature, meaning it’s involved in the breaking down process. The adrenal glands also produce neurotransmitters which affect
pancreatic function. Therefore it would be important to work on both of these
glands. It is always important to strengthen the adrenal glands as they have a
vital relationship with every cell in the body. Body Fuels
Glucose and fructose are essential simple sugars required to “run” your
body, just as your car needs fuel to run. Simple sugars require much less insulin than complex sugars. Complex sugars, like maltose, dextrose, and refined sucrose must be
broken down into simple sugars before the body can use them. This
creates heavy insulin requirements and also leads to excessive glucose,
causing fat storage. Amino acids are your building materials, and sugars (glucose, fructose,
etc. ) are your fuels. Never use proteins for fuels. This creates tissue damage, cancer, and
death. Proteins are building materials, not fuels. THYROID/PARATHYROID

The thyroid/parathyroid gland must also be considered because of its control
of metabolism and calcium utilization factors. Without proper calcium
utilization all the cells in the body can become weakened. Calcium also plays
a role in zinc, selenium and iron utilization, which affects glucose utilization
and cellular functions. HYPOTHALAMUS AND PITUITARY

Another area of weakness to consider in diabetes is the hypothalamus and
pituitary gland. The posterior part of the pituitary gland, controlled by the
hypothalamus (the master computer in the body), releases an anti-diuretic
hormone which when underactive causes diabetes insipidus. It is also
important to note that the transverse bowel is at the heart of eighty percent or
more of the upper brain weaknesses, including
and especially the pituitary
and hypothalamus areas. With a greater understanding of the GI tract,
especially the colon and its relationship to the organs and glands, you will
appreciate why a healthy GI tract is necessary to assist the health of the rest of
the body. GI TRACT AND DIABETES

Your gastrointestinal tract has a relationship to all the organs and glands
within your body. Just as the hub is the center of a wheel, the GI tract is
considered the hub of your body. When the GI tract gets impacted with
putrefying plaque from meat and flour products, the resulting inflammation
and toxicity produced is echoed to the related areas. This is why cleaning and
strengthening the GI tract is vital to your success in any disease condition,
including diabetes. THE TRUE CAUSES OF DIABETES
There are many theories regarding what causes diabetes, from plaqued
cholesterol around the beta cells, to autoimmune problems, to genetics. Others say it’s from stress and obesity. Every cell in your body is a genetic cell. Some become weaker than
others depending upon the above. These weaknesses are magnified and
passed on through each new generation. Because of our unawareness of this
fact, the human species is currently facing serious tissue weaknesses,
resulting mainly in chronic and degenerative diseases

Fasting Fights Deadly
Acid Crystals
Toxic Acid Crystals Can
Cement Your Joints to Make You Stiff
Stand on any street corner and watch the average
person hobble along. Their feet, knees, hips, spine and
head seem to be cemented. There is no free-swinging
movement in their locomotion. Let’s look at their feet.They seem to pick up their feet heavily and lay them
down flatly. Their knees seem to be completely cemented
and stiff. There is little movement in the swinging hipmotion, their spines are rigid and so are their heads. All
of the elasticity and resiliency seems to have gone out
of what should be a free-swinging body. Crystals Are Cement – Not Lubrication
Between the moveable joints of every bone in the
human body, Mother Nature has placed an abundant
supply of a lubricant known as synovial fluid. Take alook at a youngster who is, say
10 years of age, and watch
the easy movement of every moveable joint in his body.Why is this? I know that your answer would be, “This
child is only
10 years of age. I am 66. I can’t have the
same freedom of motion in my joints as a child of 10
does.” My answer to you is, “Why can’t you? Years havenothing to do with the amount of synovial fluid thatallows the joints to move freely and easily. There is justone thing that cements your body’s moveable joints andthat is the build-up of toxic acid crystals.”
Age is not toxic. Just because you live
 50, 60  or 70
years, there should be no diminishing of the supply of
synovial fluid due to your calendar years. 40
Water flows through every single part of your body, cleansing
and nourishing it. But the wrong kind of water – with inorganicminerals, harmful toxins, chemicals and other contaminants canpollute, clog and gradually turn every part of your body to stone.USA leads the world in heart diseases, strokes, cancers, arthritis and diabetes!How Toxic Acid Crystals Build in Your Body
Despite the fact that I am way past 85, I pride myself
on having the most flexible body, regardless of my age,
and I feel ageless! I can perform difficult yoga postures
with ease while standing on my head. Few people inthe world can do this regardless of age. Mother Nature
can’t stiffen and cement one person’s body as they age
and yet allow me to have the flexibility of a youngster. There are 4 great eliminative systems in our bodies
that get rid of the poisons created by our daily living. By
nature, we eat food, we drink liquids and we breathe air.Most humans eat too much food, eating by habit rather
than by hunger. They have been brainwashed to believe
that they must have scheduled meals by the clock. I knowfrom long experience as a Physical Therapist that people
with these grotesque shapes have not been able to burn
up these so-called regular meals. They have beenconditioned to eat breakfast whether they have hunger
or not, so they load up on ham, bacon, eggs, hot cakes,
sugared doughnuts and sweet rolls, toast, jelly, jams,fried potatoes, pancakes, w affles, pork sausage, coffee,
hot chocolate and dry processed (unhealthy) cereals. The body doesn’t have enough Vital Force energy to
continually masticate, digest, assimilate and eliminate theseheavy breakfasts. There is always a toxic residue left... where does this toxic residue go? It is concentrated and
crystallized as deposits in the moveable joints in the body.It’s a slow process that few sense until the joints start to
give them trouble. It takes years of wrong eating to create
these heavy concentrations of acid crystals and toxins inthe moveable joints. When these calcium-like spurs attach
themselves to the joints and calcified substances replace
the synovial fluid, it’s then that the pains and aches arefelt in the moveable joints of the body causing pain.41The
Bones

Human
Body
Bone, like all living tissue, requires adequate
nutrition for health and growth. Bones needsufficient levels of minerals, especially calcium,
phosphorous, magnesium, manganese, zinc,
copper and silicon, plus vitamins A, C and K.Vitamin D and boron are necessary to ensure
proper intestinal absorption and utilization of
calcium. Live The Bragg Healthy Lifestyleto keep the bones healthy and strong!HEALTHY BONES:
Back View
Every man is the builder of a temple, called his body. We are all sculptors and painters,
and our material is our own flesh, blood and bones. –  Henry David ThoreauFront ViewExcerpt from the Bragg Back Book. See back pages for booklist.42
Make me aware that there is more  to life than measuring its speed. Periodic fasting keeps you connected to your body’s natural tendency
to cleanse and rejuvenate. – Pamela Serure, The 3-Day Energy FastJoint & Back Pains – Curse of Mankind
The toxic crystals first attack the feet, and their 26
moveable bones in each foot. The force of gravity sends
the toxic crystals down into the feet. Gradually the feet
and ankles start to stiffen, because the toxic acid crystals
are taking over and replacing the lubrication in the jointsof the feet. Instead of having flexible feet, they become
stiff and tire easily (
read page 138). They ache, burn and
cause tremendous misery. (Do read our Foot and Back books.) From the feet and ankles, the toxic acid crystals move
upward, causing many people to suffer from pains in
the knees. As time marches on, so does the deteriorationof the joints. Soon toxic crystals creep into the great
moveable hip joints – you will notice by the way people
move their hips that they are stiff and painful. Few people escape an aching or stiff back. Watch
middle-aged people bend over and notice the agony on
their faces when they straighten up. Day after day theycry out in anguish, “Oh, my aching back!” But the toxic
acid crystals don’t stop in the lower back, they go up
into the spine, the shoulder blades, the shoulder joints,the neck and elbows... eventually creeping into thewrists and fingers. Some people are so full of toxic acid
crystals that they cannot close their hands or make fists. They all seem to falsely blame one thing: “All my achesand pains are due to the fact that I am getting old.”
Don’t you believe it. These acid crystals are poisons
that stayed in your body and cemented themselves inthe moveable joints. Billions of pain pills are used by
the American public to get relief from aching joints. Thousands of people go to hot mineral baths to get relief.Many different medical treatments are used for the relief
of their problems. I am offering you fasting and The Bragg
Healthy Lifestyle to guide you onto the road to healthso you can help your body detox and heal itself. In nature there are neither rewards or punishments
– there are consequences! – Robert Ingersoll43
Fasting and prayer seemed to strengthen Jesus, for when His time
of fasting was ended, He manifested a new power and poise. Jesusthen returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee. – Luke 4:14Fasting for Purification
When you fast for 24 to 36 hours, or from 3 to 10
days, the healing power starts to work in your body. I
have told you, over and over, that the power to cleanse,purify and rejuvenate yourself is within your body. This
power has always been in your body. When you go on a

the only defense  of something rigid  against an
ovenvhelming force. Therefore the good  shock
absorber has not only "give," but also stability  or
"weight. " This  weight  is likewise  a function  of the mind,
and
appears in the much -misunderstood phenomenon
of laziness. Significantly enough, nervous and
frustrated  people are always busy, even in being
idle, such idle - ness  being  the "laziness"  of fear,

mind -body  is a system  which  conserves and accumu -
lates energy. '\Nhilc doing this it is propcrly
lazy. When the energy is stored, it is justas happy to
move,  and yet to move skillfully -along the line of

bue also lazi - ness, which is the mothcr of

resistance and escape -the ''J'' process -is a false
move. The pain is inescapable, and resistance as a
defense only makes it  worse; the whole systern is
jarred by thc shock. Sce- ing the impossibility of
this course, it muse act ac- cording to  its nature -
remain  stable  and absorb. To remain stablc  is to refrain from trying to
sepa - rare yourself from a pain because you know
that you  cannot. Running away from  fear is  fear,
fighting pain  is pain,  trying  to be brave   is being  sea
red. If the mind  is in pain, the mind is pain. The
thinker has no othcr  form than bis thought. There is no escape. But so long as you are not
aware of the inseparability of  thinkcr  and
thought,  you will try to escape. From this follows, quite naturally, absorption. It is no effort; the mind does it by itself. Seeing
that  there  is no escape  from  the pain,  the mind

pain  without any "I" fecling it or resisting it. It
cxperi - ences pain in the same complete,
unselfconscious way  in which it cxpcriences
plcasure. Pain is the nature  of this present
moment, and J can only live in this moment. Sometimes, when resistance ceases, the pain
simply  goes away or dwindles toan easily

absence of any resist - ancc brings about  a way of

Q: According to the text, what is the ultimate goal of the brain's rational thinking?,
A: The text suggests that the brain's rational thinking is actually counterproductive, leading to frustration and unhappiness. The author argues that the brain's function is to serve the body, not the other way around.
Q: What is the author's view on the concept of materialism?,
A: The author does not advocate for materialism, but rather argues that the emphasis on material possessions and desires is a source of unhappiness and insecurity.
Q: What is the author's stance on the idea of defining and understanding experience?,
A: The author suggests that it is impossible to define or understand experience, as it is constantly changing and cannot be captured by language or concepts. He argues that our attempts to define and understand it lead to frustration and unhappiness.
Q: What is the author's view on the concept of the "I" or the self?,
A: The author argues that there is no "I" or self, but rather, the experience is the only reality. He claims that the idea of a separate "I" is an illusion and that we must abandon this notion to find true peace and understanding.
Q: What is the author's stance on the concept of escape and resistance?,
A: The author argues that trying to escape or resist pain, fear, or other unpleasant experiences only leads to more pain and suffering. He suggests that instead, one must learn to absorb and accept the present moment, rather than trying to flee from it.<|eot_id|><|begin_of_text|>When you

 is a virtual duty, a recipe for healthfulness, in spite of the f act that the ability to contain the
physical urge of sex, and find pleasu re in so doing, must have been
a necessity from the first steps in human evolution, without which
an effective integration of the family and social group would have been quite impossible. That frustration, the ally of anger and hatred, are the
consequences of lust, of sexualit y pursued without love, can be
observed in the backwash of dissatis faction that invariably follows
the purely physical preoccupations of sexuality. This is particularly
marked in the young; outburst s of violence, destructiveness,
aggressiveness often follow periods  of extreme licence among the
youth gangs of large cities. One must therefore conclude that a socially disturbed mind is especially prone to any other disturbing
influences that may impinge upon it, such as the abnormal mind-
affecting amines in an abnormal diet. The manner in which the higher aspects of the mind become
sabotaged by the lower, is as yet little understood. Arthur Koestler, contemplating the overwhelming fa ilure of human beings to be
human, and the periodical insanity of human history, concludes that
something must have gone wrong in the evolution of the brain. Others have speculated that viruses as yet undetected have infected parts of the brain controlling the sexual motivations. But there is a less far searching explanation in the virtually universal prevalence of the abnormal mind-affecting amines, which does not require such
a bungling on the part of nature in the making of its highest work,
the brain. The 'lower emotions' such as fear, aggressiveness, and the blind
copulatory drives, are known to originate in the limbic system, a region a few centimetres thick which encapsulates the dilated end of
the brain stem. The 'higher emotions' such as the humanizing
sensibilities arise in a most comp licated interplay between the
cortex and the brain stem. It would seem that the role of the cortex is to transmute an ancient ma mmalian capacity for effective
emotional experiences; some interchange between the limbic system and the most highly evolved humanizing aspects is accordingly
natural and normal. But to conclude, as does P. D. Maclean, that
this points to an evolutionary failure to wall off the primitive from the human, which would account for an ingrained paranoid streak, seems unjustified. The problem is functional,—the wrong 'colour' of
the affective processes due to abnormal amine stimulation. The
same faulty amines responsible for an overall disturbance of the
mind and an arousal of its more primitive aspects, could account for the near demonic sexual drives of most humans, inducing a pattern of sexuality the very opposite of th at intended by nature as. the main
agent in humanization. This suggestion, that wrong foods can account for the
pathology of sex, would find confirmation in the ancient belief that foods had aphrodisiac properties, an aphrodisiac being defined as a substance able to stimulate and titillate the lower sex emotions. Aphrodisiac foods are indeed those which have the highest amount of the extractives giving rise to the purines and amines. 9. Need or Greed

Besides the protein excesses involved in a so called'mixed' dietary,
the Industrial Revolution, entailing profound changes in the world
production of food and in food habits, has led to an excessive eating
of calorie foods, while some of the more minute requirements of the
mind and body have gone in short supply, resulting in the
malnutrition of abundance. This disturbing greed for the grosser
items of foods, proteins and calories, has been achieved at the
expense of the poorer, primary producers, making the greed of the
so called best-fed nations a planetary affront. Gluttony is never possible in nature, for food is never so
plentiful as to permit a continual overeating. Occasional orgies may
occur, the result of a lucky find, bu t they are inevitably interspersed
by longer periods of scarcity. The only overfed animals are the pets of overfed people. The bodies of all animals are better adapted to scarcity than to abundance, which is what one would expect, given
the geological and climatic restlessness of the earth. As food
supplies become more scarce, reserves are mobilized, the body becomes more sparse, more active, and clutter vanishes. One finds people in the poorer parts of the world existing in apparent health, skinny but very active and smiling, on much less than the authorities consider should bring about starvation. While living on such low
levels is to be deplored, it does show that the human body is
remarkably well adapted to advers ity, in fact thrives on it. Some
degree of it, at least occasionally, may be indispensable for health, for the body seems to have beco me adapted to profit from such
periods in order to get rid of ol d stock, of accumulated wastes, the
means also of resharpening the senses and the efficiency of
functioning, taking in the sl ack and repairing damage. The sense of well-being, of elation and purification which
follows a period of abstinence from food shows that this is natural, biologically beneficial. Such benefits may not be immediately
apparent in the chronically overfed or the diseased, for in them the
respite from abuse is taken advantage of by the body for a massive, and often disturbing broom sweeping. But even then, persistence is rewarded by a remarkable quickenin g of all the faculties, by a sense
of reawakening and rejuvenation and a simple joyfulness which
most people have not known since childhood. Scents and colours,
feelings and tastes long lost are magically revived, and simple
pleasures, which seemed boring to the surfeited mind and body, return with a pristine intensity. The humanizing sensitivities are particularly revived, bringing a bout an awareness of harmony and
beauty in things and creatures previously neglected. It is remarkable to observe how the reactivity of the body as a
whole is heightened. Long established chronic ailments may disappear overnight, and blights that have haunted and humiliated for years, itches and bodily odours, vanish as with a magician's wand. This is not surprising, for contrary to the usual assumption that even a temporary abstinence is dangerous, the body is designed
for it and thoroughly enjoys it. The common supposition that even a skipped meal is a calamity boosts the common gluttony. It is not
found among the simpler peasantries. Hard work and thrift ensure
lithe bodies and alert minds into old age. There are still such examples surviving, peasants setting out for a long hard day's work
with no more than a few dried figs or dates, a chunk of coarse bread dipped in olive oil, a garlic or two and an occasional piece of cheese. The Chinese peasants will perform feats of endurance and
labour on what seems to the overfed European diminutive bowls of
rice with scatterings of beans. The scramble for food originated with the rise of the cities, for
while the peasants could always eke some sustenance from their
land in the worst of times, the cities often starved, as a consequence
of plunder, famine, and pestile nce. When good times came, city
people stuffed themselves, so that overeating became the mark of prosperity and privilege. As privileged classes arose, ruling the cities and taking over the
land, with power over supplies, glu ttony became their habit, while
the masses often knew hunger. The situation grew worse with the
rise in power of the city states in  the Middle Ages, and very much
worse with the Industrial Revolution. Its initial impact brought such disorder that starvation often overtook the cities. As a result of this background of general scarcity, the demand
for food, and ever more food, was the pivot of all the movements of
emancipation which began actively in  the seventeenth century. This
demand was eventually met by the agricultural revolution, the use
of chemical fertilizers, the importation of foreign foods in exchange for industrial products and the refining of cereals, which enabled prolonged storage and easy trans portation. Food production was
thus geared to quantity rather than quality. A century ago, every reasonable person would have praised the
measures taken by the authorities and the industrialists, and blessed the scientists who were increasingly responsible for processed natural foodstuffs, increasing their size and yield, introducing preservation, colouring, conditioners and a soaring list of chemicals. But in a rising spiral of disaster, the arrogant interferences with
nature have become apparent in the recent decades, in a planetary ecological collapse. Excessive applications of chemical fertilizers, with insufficient
or absent organic contributions, have led to a breakdown of some of
the world's most fertile soils, calling for ever higher applications in
a desperate attempt to keep up the yield, and ending in disasters like the American Dust Bowl. More recently it has been found that excess nitrate fertilizers are accumulated in food plants, and, when eaten, are converted to the highly cancerous nitrosamides. The overspill of nitrates into rivers a nd lakes, encouraging the prolific
growth of toxic blue-green algae,  has sterilized many waters with
once abundant fish life. Mineral nitrates are manufactured into proteins by plants, the
source of all animal protein. Too much nitrate abnormally stimulates plant growth, just as too much protein abnormally
stimulates the growth-rate and size of animals. Superficially, this
increase in growth and body size seems nothing but good,


 know anything about the fat content of the avocados and olives I pi cked and ate raw from the trees. (Y es, I did
actually like the taste of one particular type of olive. If I allowed the s mooth green ones to ripen on the tree until they were black and
shriveled, I enjoyed their taste and ate quite a few at a time). I also ha d never heard of food combining, so I generally mixed
anything that was available on a given day. For example, I might eat av ocados, dates, tomatoes, and citrus within a few hours of
each other, although I didn’t do that often. I read a few books about fruitarianism, like Arnold Ehret’s Mucusless-Diet Healing System,  and then I waited to see if I
would have experiences like they described in the book: almost unlimited en ergy, and incredible strength and endurance. I did not
get the results I was hoping for after eight years. I still had sinus  problems, along with gas and mucus. For the next couple years, I ate raw foods, with mostly fruit. I went to see a  lot of alternative doctors, including ayurvedic
practitioners and others in the next few years. I had a lot of tests and a l ot of dental work done. A number of these alternative and
ayurvedic doctors suggested very strongly that animal products would be be neficial for me, as well as spicier foods, because I was
too yin or cold, and I needed yang, heating foods. I did try chicken, fish, and eggs, with cayenne pepper and very little f ruit, for about six months in the winter of 1985. I didn’t
feel much worse when I ate those foods, but I really didn’t like the idea of  consuming innocent animals, and I didn’t feel stronger and
healthier like all the doctors said I would. So I started eating sweet fru its again. In 1992 I met a Natural Hygienist who explained to me about food combining. I  bought Dr. Shelton’s book and started eating
raw fruits and vegetables at certain times in certain combination s, as described in his book. I did this for about eight years until one night after eating some cher imoyas and capotes I woke up after about two hours of
sleep and couldn’t fall back to sleep. I was very uncomfortable the wh ole night, trying to relax, massaging myself, and attempting to
stretch. Finally, I did an enema at around 4 am and felt a little better. I couldn’t figure out what had caused this, and I thought it
might be a fluke. Well, the same thing happened the next night. That was  much more difficult, because I only got an hour of sleep
both nights, and I was exhausted. It was hard to think and figure out what to do n ext. I was eating all raw fruits and vegetables in combination, which inc luded daily nuts, seeds, and avocados, and I was eating a
late last meal of sweet fruit around 10 pm, which was pretty close to when I  went to sleep. The main reason I ate that late was that I
found it impossible to sleep if I didn’t. So I figured I would eat some raw swe et fruit, which was my favorite food. I didn’t sleep for
four nights straight, and on the fourth night I started to panic. I calle d the paramedics and told them I might be having a heart attack. I couldn’t tell what was going on. They took me to St. John’s hospital, where I  was tested for hours. Doctors there finally told me
that my heart and cholesterol were perfect. The only problem they could fi nd in all their extensive testing was that I had a B 12
deficiency. I left St. John’s in the morning and went to the W estside Alternativ e Center, which did a lot more very expensive testing. The
tests cost me as much as the hospital bills from St. John’s, which ca me to a few thousand dollars. After about a week, I received the
results from the tests from the alternative clinic, and they said I  had a B 12 /folic acid deficiency. I took B 12  injections in my butt for a
few days, and then they put me on folic acid supplements. I started asking everyone I knew for help and information, because I st ill didn’t know what had caused my inability to sleep. I
also wasn’t sure what I should be eating, because I had been eati ng the same way for 20 years straight. I knew a 30-year raw food
chiropractor who told me not to eat any sweet fruits and to get my B 12  from Standard Process Labs. I felt a lot better for a while. That chiropractor died in a bicycle accident, and I went back to eating swee t fruit. I tried different cleanses, including the Arise and Shine one-mont h cleanse, which I followed to the letter. I got really weak
during the final week of the cleanse, where you don’t eat any food. I called t he company to ask about it, and they thought it was
some type of parasite like candida. I went to a doctor, who said that I could send a st ool sample to the Great Smokies laboratory if
I wanted to know for sure whether I had candida. The test results showed tha t I had two strains of candida at the highest level. All
my symptoms made sense to the doctor, because she had recovered from candida an d had written a book about it. They say with candida that fruit feeds it, and I ate a lot of fruit. I went  on a long, expensive candida cleanse for six months and
felt pretty lousy the whole time. I ate nothing sweet for six months, not  even carrots or lemons, and I had to rotate my foods every
four days. I took a lot of supplements, including Super Garlic, Primal Defens e, some expensive flora from England, and many
others. I had a really difficult time during those six months. I found it hard to ge t any work done, because all my symptoms had gotten
more extreme. I was so uncomfortable. I stayed with it for the full six mon ths and then took another stool test, which showed that I
still had candida albicans at the highest level. The doctor suggested t aking prescription drugs, and I started back on a diet with sweet
fruits. I tried numerous other diets, supplements, and cleanses during the next  few years, until I heard Doug Graham and Rozi
Gruben speak at an event called Raw Passion. Rozi talked about what happens t o the blood when we eat certain foods. Doug said
that it isn’t the sugar in fruits, but rather the fat that peo ple with candida consume that inhibits the body’s ability to get th e sugar out
of the blood. I didn’t know whether what they were saying was absolutely what was  happening with me, but I knew I liked both of them
immediately. They seemed to have a lot of conviction about what they were  saying, and they definitely had done extensive research
and discovered a lot of information. I started to reflect on my situation. No one, out of the many, many doctors I had c onsulted with over the years had helped me
make any health improvements. I thought I was on the best diet I could t hink of, but I wasn’t feeling well. These two people looked
very healthy. It seemed obvious they had extensive knowledge about healt h and had already worked with people in a similar
situation to mine, with improvements. If I didn’t like the way it was wor king, I could always go back to the way I was eating now. I
didn’t have anything to lose by cutting out fats except my illness. There wasn’t really much of a decision left to make. I started eliminating fat from my diet that very day, and I began exp eriencing some very heavy elimination. I didn’t eat any
overt fats for six months, because I didn’t know about 80/10/10, and I thought the idea was to eat as little fat as possible, so I did. This meant no avocado, olives, or durian, and of course no nuts or seeds. Also, I didn’t know about Doug’s V egSource board, so I went back to eating a ra w diet with fat in it. The elimination slowed
way down. I ate that way for the next six months, even though I felt terr ible again, until I saw Doug speak at the Living Light House
in Santa Monica. I got to ask him some questions, which he was very willin g to answer, and I cut the fat again. Except this time I ate
an 811  diet, which meant that I ate a little fat once in a while. I had so many wonderful improvements, but I still didn’t have the full  health picture. So I saved up a little cash and had a
private consultation with Dr. Graham. During the consultation, we sa t down face to face within two feet of each other. This was
really helpful to me, because I got a sense of what he was all about. I found a  genuine, caring individual who was absolutely
interested in improving my health. It was hard to imagine what he woul d come up with to help me, because I was following the diet
to a T. At the time, I thought that was what it was all about. What I didn’t realize, is that diet is only one part of


conscious awareness, and in that moment, the personal self was born and
the duality of “Is” and “Is Not” entered my subjective awareness. Throughout childhood and early adolescence, the paradox of existence
and the question  of the reality of the self remained a repeated c oncern. Thepersonal self would sometimes begin slipping back into  a greater
impersonal Self,  and the initial fear of nonexistence—the fundamental fear
of nothingness—would recur. In 1939, as a paperboy with a 17-mile bicycle route in rural W isconsin,
on a  dark winter ’ s night I was c aught miles from home in a –20º blizzard. The bicycle fell over on the ice  and the fierce wind ripped the newspapers
out of the hand lebar basket, blowing them across the ice-covered, snowy
field. There were tears of frustr ation and exhaustion, and my clothes were
frozen stif f. T o get out of the wind, I broke through the icy crust of a high
snowbank, dug out a space, and crawled into it. Soon the shivering stopped
and there was a delicious warm th, and then a state of peace beyond all
description. This  was accompanied by a suf fusion of light and a  presence of
infinite love that had no begin ning and no end and was und if ferentiated
from my own essence. The physical body and surroundings faded as my
awareness was fused with this all-present, illuminated state. The mind grew
silent; a ll thoug ht stopped. An infinite Presence was all that was or could
be, beyond all time or description. After that timelessness, there was suddenly an awareness of someone
shaking my knee; then my fathe r ’ s anxious face appeared. There was great
reluctance to return to the body and all that that entailed, but because of my
father ’ s love and anguish, the Spirit nurtured and reactivated the body. There w as comp assion for his fear of death, although, at the same time, the
concept of death seemed absurd. This subjective experience was  not discussed with anyone since there
was no context available from w hich to describe it. It was not common to
hear of spiritual experiences other than those reported in the lives of the
saints. B ut after  this experience, the accepted reality of the world began to
seem only provisional; traditional religious teachings lost significance, and,
paradoxically, I became an agnostic. Compared to the light of Divinity that
had illu minated all existence, the god of traditional religion shone dully
indeed; thus spirituality replaced religion. During W orld W ar II, hazardou s duty on a minesweeper often  brought
close bru shes wi th death, but the re was no fear of it. It was as th ough death
had lost its authenticity. After the war, fascinated by the complexities of the
mind and wanting to study psy chiatry, I worked my way through medical
school. My training psychoanaly st, a professor at Columbia University, wasalso an agnostic; we both took a dim view of religion. The an alysis went
well, as did my career, and success followed. I did not, howe ver, settle quietly into professional life. I fell ill with a
progressive, fatal illness that did not respond to any treatments available. By age 38, I w as in extr emis  and knew I was about to die. I didn’ t care
about th e body, but my spirit wa s in a state of extreme anguish and despair. As the final mo ment approach ed, the thought flashed through my mind,
What if ther e is a God? S o I called out in prayer, “If there is a God, I ask
Him to help me  now.” I surren dered to whatever God there might be and
went int o oblivion. When I awoke, a transformation of such enormity had
taken place that I was struck dumb with awe. The person I ha d been no longer existed. There was no personal self or
ego, onl y an Infinite Presence o f such unlimited power that it was all that
was. Th is Presence had replaced what had been “me,” and the b ody and its
actions were controlled solely by the Infinite W ill of the Presence. The
world was illuminated by the c larity of an Infinite Oneness that expressed
itself as all things revealed in their infinite beauty and perfection. As life went on, this stillness persisted. There was no personal will; the
physical body went about its business under the direction of the infinitely
powerful but exquisitely gentle W ill of the Presence. In that stat e, there was
no need  to think about anyt hing. All truth was self-evident and no
conceptualization was necessary or even possible. At the same time, the
physical nervous system felt extremely overtaxed, as though it were
carrying far more ener gy than its circuits had been designed for. It was not possible to function ef fectively in the world. All ordinary
motivations had  disappeared, along with all fear and anxiety. There was
nothing to seek, as all was perfect. Fame, success, and m oney were
meaningless. Friends ur ged the pragmatic return to clinical practice, but
there was no ordinary motivation to do so. There was now the ability to perceive the reality that underlay
personalities: th e origin of emotional sickness lay in people’ s belief that
they wer e  their personalities. And so, as though of its own, a clinical
practice resume d and eventually became huge. People came from all over
the U nited States. The practice had 2,000 outpatients, which required more
than 50 therapists and other employees, a suite of 25 of fices, and research
and elec troencephalic laboratories. There were a thousand new  patients a
year. In addition, there were appearances on radio and network televisionshows, as previously mention ed. In 1973, the clinical research was
documented in a traditional format in the book, Orthomolecular Psychiatry. This work was 10 years ahead of its time and created something of a stir. The overall condition of the ne rvous system improved slowly,  and then
another phenomenon commenced. There was a sweet, delicio us band of
ener gy c ontinuously flowing up the spine and into the brain where it created
an in tense sensation of continuo us pleasure. Everything in life h appened by
synchronicity, evolving in perfect harmony; the mirac ulous was
commonplace. T he origin of w hat the world would call mirac les was the
Presence, not the personal self. What remained of the persona l “me” was
only a witness to these phenomena. The greater “I,” deeper than my former
self or thoughts, determined all that happened. The stat es that were present h ad been reported by others th roughout
history and led to the investigati on of spiritual teachings, including those of
the B uddha, enlightened sages, Huang Po, and more recent teac hers such as
Ramana Mahars hi and Nisar gadatta Maharaj. It was thus confirmed that
these experience s were not unique. The Bhagavad Gita now ma de complete
sense. At times, the same spiritu al ecstasy reported by Sri Rama krishna and
the Christian saints occurred. Everything and everyone in the world was luminous and exquisitely
beautiful. All living beings became Radiant and expressed this Radiance in
stillness and splendor. It was apparent that all mankind is actually motivated
by i nner love b ut has simply become unaware; most lives are lived as
though by sleepers unawakened to the awareness of who they really are. People around me looked as though they were asleep and were incredibly
beautiful. It was like being in love with everyone. It w as necessary to stop the hab itual practice of meditating for an hour in
the morning and then again be fore dinner because it would intensify the
bliss to such an extent that it was not possible to function. An  experience
similar to the one that had occurred in the snowbank as a boy would recur,
and it became increasingly dif f icult to leave that state and return to the
world. T he incre dible beauty of all things shone forth in all thei r perfection,
and whe re the world saw uglin ess, there was only timeless beauty. This
spiritual love suf fused all perception, and all boundaries between here and
there, or then and now, or separation disappeared. During the years spent in inner silence, the strength of the Presence grew. Life was  no longer personal; a p ersonal will no longer existed. T he personal“I” had become an instrument of the Infinite Presence and went about and
did as it was willed. People felt an extraordinary peace in the aura of that
Presence. Seekers sought answers, but as there was no longer any such
individual as David, they were actually finessing answers from their own
Self, which was not dif ferent from mine. From each person the same Self
shone forth from their eyes. The mi raculous happened, be yond ordinary comprehension. Many
chronic maladie s from which the body had suf fered for years disappeared;
eyesight spontan eously normaliz ed, and there was no longer a need for the
lifetime bifocals. Occasionally, an exquisit

after fasting in the body with the large reconstruction
processes. Cells actively absorb nutrients, and if
at this time do not limit yourself to eating, your weight quickly
reaches the same standards, and is likely to exceed it by several
kilos. Therefore, if the goal is only losing weight, but not complete
behavioral change that brought you to obesity,
Fasting will not help you, rather it will increase your weight by a few
pounds from the original. When I worked at the sanatorium on Lake Baikal,
we were visited by Professor YS Nikolaev. Together with our
the doctors asked him about the treatment of patients with excessive hunger
body weight, he told an interesting story from his experience
and even showed slides. "Once at the entrance to the clinic nurse met me and said:" There you
fat men waiting, two brothers and her father arrived. I thought - three
overweight. But when I entered the lobby, he saw two young men
incredible size but for their very broad backs - small,
skinny man. "Well, well - I thought - means that obesity is not hereditary,
not genetically determined. " But, alas, a third fat man was after all. "Mother they have very thick, so people freak" - told
little man, looking at their elephantine children
with some fear. As it turned out, there was a fourth round one - my grandmother. More
should be lost. T. Brothers were really phenomenal thickness: Senior,
22 years old, weighed 211 pounds, junior, 16 years - 174 kilos. To weigh them, had to use a granary scales -
health would not stand such a load. Both brothers because
obesity had a disability group II. We are engaged in them for long. Spent nine courses of fasting-
dietary fractional therapy. as a result of older brother
dropped 86 pounds, and junior - 70. On admission, both were in a depressed state:
they had all the growing apathy, lethargy, dullness, headache
pain, sometimes appearing spleen. After treatment, all these
symptoms disappeared, the young men were hilarious, moving,
sociable. Currently, the brothers observe dietary regimen and
not gain weight. In these cases, we apply the so-called
162
162"Fractional" method of fasting-diet therapy: after
first fasting (10 - 15 days) begins the restoration of such
same duration. Then the second fasting 10 - 30 days and the same
duration of recovery, then a third course of holo-Denmark, etc. on up to 10 - 12 of alternations of hunger and nutrition, with a break of 3 - 4
months after 6 - 8 factional courses. The duration of each
course is individual and varies depending on the state
health, weight, age and other indicators of the patient. This
pendular cycle of fasting allows lower weight
body for 80 - 100 pounds. While reducing weight gain in patients who were
treatment, significantly improved cardiovascular activity,
Blood pressure drops to normal, shortness of breath disappeared,
arrhythmia, heart tones became sonorous. Women

potency. patients with mental disorders fully
disappeared psychopathology. Follow-up care for patients up to
15 years showed that in case of compliance with recommended treatment
nutrition weight patients stable at the level received
as a result of treatment. Even wet starvation when properly used and compliance
all the recommendations gives excellent results, but dry fasting on
many orders of magnitude more efficient. It is known that adipose tissue readily deposited by water, but it

antiexsudorific effect and thereby accelerate lipolysis. For people
overweight dry starvation - the most effective way
weight loss. This is the best fat burner. Weight after him, although again
and increases, but does not return to its previous level. in contrast
of numerous tools for losing weight, it does not cost anything
and most importantly - is harmless. Transferred more easily than many
debilitating starvation diets that do not bring anything, except
harm. Nutrition own stocks perfectly balanced. The body takes from the reserves only that at the moment it
needed rather than what he was artificially imposed from the outside. what is the
advantage over other methods of fasting, directed
to reduce weight:
- During fasting there is a fast and safe loss
weight;
- Man is much easier to tolerate starvation, as there is no
constant feeling of hunger;
- If weight loss is not observed neither sagged nor flabby skin
and tissues. - Weight loss during fasting is accompanied by a rehabilitation
the body and improving overall health (becoming
free breathing, increases ease of movement, disappears

cavity and symptoms of indigestion, lowers blood pressure and total
load on the heart). - Fasting helps fight eating habits. and this,
perhaps, its main merit
