 will tighten the blood vessels in
this organ. When the kidneys are damaged and urine production is insufficient, the RA system is more active. It promotes more
salt intake and induces more thirst. Kidney damage may be the consequence of long-term dehydration and salt
depletion that had triggered the RA sy stem activity in the first place. But we have not in the past recognized the
significan ce of the vascul ar tightening (essen tial hype rtension) as an indicator of body's flu id loss. Now, i nsufficient
fluid balance in the body may have to be considered as the primary factor in som e cases of renal damage—to the
point of needing kidney replacement. Once the RA sy stem is turned fully ON, it continues its expanding pace until a
natural switching system could turn it off. The components of the natural OFF switch are WATER and so me SALT
—in that order—until the mea surable vascul ar tightening indicates  a normal range. The salivary glands se em to have the ability to sense salt shortage in the body. When there is sodium shortage,
they see m to produce substances called kinins. Kinins promote added bl ood circul ation and  increased sali va
formation in the salivary glands. This i ncreas ed saliva formati on (possibly to the extent that it would flow out of the
mouth) serves two purposes: On e, it lubricates the mouth during food intake in a dehydrated state of the body; two,
its alkaline consistency and copious flo w will assist in food breakdown and its eventual evacuation from the
stomach. Within the integrated systems of the human body, the kinins of the salivary gland seem to also trigger
activation of the RA sy stem that will begin to influence all parts of the body. Thus, sodium (salt) shortage in the body (which wou ld also contribute to devastating water shortage outside of cel ls)
could initiate a series of events that would ultimately produce essen tial hype rtension and chronic pains in humans. The relationship of the salivary kinins to sodium depletion (salt depletion causes body water content loss) and ample
saliva production, even if the body is fai rly dehydrated, is the paradox in the natural design of the human body. It
exposes the grossest error in considering the "dry mouth" as the sole indicator of water shortage in humans! Because of this very simple error, the practice of medicine and scientific research are light years off course. Much
backtracking and revision to the already adopted views will be unavoidable. Let us hope "self protection" will not be
an obstacle in the way! What happens if w e drink tea, coffee, or colas in place of water? Natural stimulants in coffee and tea are larger
quantities of caffeine and lesser  amounts of theophylline (theafelin). These are central nervous system stim ulants;
at the same time, they a re deh ydrating agents because of their  strong diur etic ac tion on th e kidneys. One cup of
coffee contains about 85 milligrams of caffeine, and one cup of tea contains about 50 milligrams of caff eine. Cola
drinks co ntain about 50 milligrams o f caffeine, part of which is added to standardize the recipe when extracting the
active substances from the nuts of Cok ac cuminata. These central nervous sy stem stimulants liberate energy from the ATP sto rage pool and convert ATP to  its burnt
stage of cyclic AMP in the cells—at certain levels a strong inhibitory agent. They also release energy from liberation
of calcium from its sto red form in the cells. Th us, caffeine seems to act in an energy releasing capacity in the body. We all know about this final effect of caff eine; wha t we should also know is its override effect when the body d oes
not wish to release energy for a cert ain action. In this way, the ac tion of some hormon es and t ransmitters w ill not be
limited at a later time because of a possib le lower level of stored energy. Caffeine will cause an override effect until
a lower level of energy sto rage is reached. Cola drinks have ex actly th e same effect. The effect of caffeine may at times be considered desirable, but constant substituting of caffeine-containi ng drinks
for water will deprive the body of its full capacity for the formation of hydroelectric energy. Excess caff eine will also
deplete the ATP-sto red energy in the brain and the body—a possible contributing factor for shorter attention span in
the younger, cola-consuming generation, or chronic fatigue syndrome as a result of excess coffee consumption In
later life. Excess caffeine intake will eventually exhaust the heart muscle because of its over-stimulation. Recently, in some experimental models, it has been shown that caffeine inhibits a most important enzyme system—
PDE (phos-pho-di-esterase)—that is involved in the process of learning and memory development. In reported
experiments, ca ffeine impaired vision and memory components of the learning ability in the species involved in the
experiment. You must now realize why people with Alzheimer's dispase and children with learning disability should not drink
anything other than water. Definitely no caffeine-containing beverages should be consumed. Let us now connect all the information in this chapter with two different but related problems: hypertension and
cholesterol formation—both leading to heart problems. The operating mechanism for adaptation to dehydration, which will climax into vasoco nstriction, are the sam e as
mentioned for stress. Namely, the continued actions of vasopressin and the RA system are responsible for
establishing the necessary adaptation to drought. They clo se a number of open capillaries in the vascular bed and
increase the pressur e/in the rest to squeeze water through the membranes into the cells in "priority organs." Do not
forget: Dehydration is the number one stressor of the human body—or any living matter.HIGH BL OOD PRESSURE
"Physicia ns think they are doing something for you by labeling -what you have as a disease." Imma nuel Ka nt
High blood pressure (essential hypertension) is the result of an adaptive process to a gross body water deficiency. The vessels of the body have been designed to cope with the fluctuation of their blood volume and tissue
requirements by opening and closing different vessels. When the total fluid volume in the body is decreased, the
main vessels also have to decrease their aperture (close their lumen); otherwise there would not be enough fluid to
fill all the space allocated to blood volume in the design of that particular body.<|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 first time I set eyes on the young man was at eleven one evening in the summer of 1980. He was in such pain
that he was almost se miconscious. He was lyin g folded in the fetal position on the floor of his room. He was
groaning steadily, unaware of his environment and the worried people around him. When I talked to him, he did not
respond. He was n ot communicating with those around him. I had to shake him to get a response. I asked him wha t was the matter. He groaned, "My ulcer is killing me. " I asked him how long he had had the pain. He said his pain started at one in the afternoon, immediately after his lunch. The pain increased in intensity a s time
passed. I asked him what he had done to get relief and if he had taken any medication. He replied that he had taken
three tablets of cim etidine and one whole bottle of antacid during this time. He indicated that he got absolutely no
relief, even with this amount of medication, in the ten hours sin ce his pain first started. When so much medication cannot relieve the pain of peptic ulcer disease, one automatically becomes suspicious of
"acute abdomen," som ething that might possibly need surgical exploration. Maybe his ulcer had perforated. I had
seen and assiste d in the operation of patients with perforated peptic ulcers. Those persons were devastated—very
much like the young man before me. The test is very sim ple; such patients develop a very rigid abdominal wall,
almost like a wooden board. I felt for the rigidity of the wall of the abdomen in this young man. Fortunately, he hadnot perforated. His a bdominal wall was soft, but tender from the pain. He was lucky he had not perforated, although
if he had continued like this, the acid would have punched a hole through his now inflamed ulcer. The arsenal of medications in such circumsta nces is very limited. Three cimetidine tablets of 300 milligrams each
and one full bottle of antacid could not relieve the pain. Often, such cases would end on the operating table of a
knife-happy surgeon. Because of my extensive experience with the pain-relieving property of water in dyspeptic
pains, I gave this man two full glasses o f water—one pint. At first he was reluctant to drink the water. I told him he
had taken the usual medications without any re sult. He should now try "my medication" for this disease. He had no
choice. He was i n severe pain and did not know w hat to do about it. I sat in a corner and observed him for a few
minutes. I had to leave the room, and whe n I returned in about fifteen minutes, his pain had become less severe and his
groans sto pped. I gave him


 whether hy drununing her
heels on the n1an's back or raising one leg to "shake the hoof." She can, if she wants to, gain control of the coital dynatnics in
a number of situations. A wonun is virtually in cornmand of the
n1ovements when she is atop the n1an, nan1cly, in riding positions
and sitting positions. She has greater freedorn of n1ovement in
riding positions when she squats rather than kneels astride him. Her legs give her enough leverage for maximun1 desired stimula
tion of any area of her rnoon grotto. In most riding positions, after insertion the woman moves her
torso up and down. Then, to enjoy varying sensations, she can
move her pelvis in an oval track. During the downward move
ment, if she leans slightly forward and pushes her pubis slightly
to the back, her clitoral area may be stimulated by her partner's
organ. During the upward movement, if she leans slightly back
ward and pushes her pubis slightly to the front, her sensitive front
vaginal wall may be stimulated by the tip of the jade stalk. At the
deepest penetration, she may pause for a while, so that his stalk
head can massage her flower heart. An adept and creative woman
can change her up-and-down, front-and-back movements to vary
ing rice-husking motions-sideways, rotary, or corkscrew. In
short, she can stimulate her clitoral area, her front vaginal wall, or
her cervix at will. For centuries many femmes fatales of ancient China
empresses, priestesses, women of literature and art, renowned
courtesans-practiced an exquisite erotic technique. This form of
internal coital dynamics gives a woman's organ a life of its own, so
to speak. Once a woman has learned to control specific sexual
nerves and muscles, she is able to bring on vaginal quiverings vol
untarily. This ability, unknown to most women, occurs involun
tarily to a few women at the height of sexual ecstasy. The ancient
Taoists who probably devised the conscious trick and developed it
over the centuries did not give it a name; I have dubbed it the But
terfly Quiver. Today the Butterfly Quiver is not exclusively Chinese. In
dians practicing Tantrism know it. The French treasure it as pom
poir. Even in the United States it is familiar in the form of the
Kegel exercise, mentioned earlier. Undoubtedly, there are women
all over the world who arc gifted with the natural ability, or who
2JI have individually discovered and cultivated it, perhaps secretly. In
the modern bedroom, a woman who has mastered the Butterfly
Quiver can create incredible results for her partner and reap them
herself
The complex muscles in the pelvic area include both volun
tary and involuntary muscles. For this erotic technique two spe
cific groups are crucial: the constrictor cunni, which encircles the
vaginal rim, and the levator vaginae, which surrounds the vaginal
canal farther up (see the illustration on p. 177). Some women can
activate all the pelvic muscles together, but very few-either
through a natural gift or persistent practice-can activate at will
these two groups of muscles, jointly or separately. If a woman times her internal movements with her part
ner's thrusting during intercourse, she may experience a many
splendor ed thrill. She can relax her muscles when the jade stalk is
advancing; then, when it is deep inside her, she can activate the
constrictor cunni to grip the root of the stalk or use her levator
vaginae to massage the middle of the stalk. While her partner is
inside her and both are at rest, she can titillate her captive lightly
with the Butterfly Quiver, pulsating like butterfly wings, or force

she can usc the constrictor cunni to hold the root of the phallus

own orgasm and help control that of their partner. With occa
sional exceptions, seasoned couples do not zip toward orgasm. In
stead, like gourn1ets at a feast, they sample and savor the delicacies
before them, leisurely and repeatedly, until they are satisfied. This
is the quintesse nce of eroticism. We hear many myths and "authoritative" pronouncements
about orgasm. The ancient Taoists ingeniously devised orgasmic
brinkmanship, but some of thern cherished the dogma of abso
lute nonejaculation for the man. Some Western sexologists have
advocated male ejaculation at every sexual union; others have in
sisted on simultaneous male and female orgasms. The Victorians
believed that women were incapable of orgasms. Freud's distinc
tion between clitoral and vaginal orgasms in women first was ac
cepted, then was discarded, and now may be coming back in a
revised version. Fortunatel y, many of today's sexologists have
more liberal views about orgasms than did their predecessors, and
many of the old myths and dogmas are behind us. For today's lovers the choice is wide open. If a man and woman
believe that the sole purpose of sex is propagation of the species,
they can simply agree to have the man ejaculate as soon as possi
ble. With today's advanced technology, they can even have in vitro
fertilization and test-tube babies. Procreation without recreation
enables thetn to bypass any sexual activity. But if partners want to
procreate through natural, physical activity, or if they just want to
make love without making babies, it pays for them to practice the
Art of the Bedchamber. Giving pleasure to each other by master
ing erotic techniques and controlling orgasn1 is a natural and le
gitimate goal for partners in bed. 233 ·"-N C I E N T S f: C R F T S t: 0 R M 0 D E R N I ( ) V t; I� S
All sop histicat ed lovers know that pleasu re delayed is pleasure
magnitied. Skillful lovers kno w how to excite and tease their part
ners to the edge of thei r precipic e, pull them back from the brink,
then push then 1 forwar d agai n. This stop-and-go strateg y, repeat
edly and carefully applied, can lift partners from plateau to pla
teau, each higher than the last, until they explode in ecstasy. From love-play through coitus, a man who is good in bed can
combine brinkmanship and other techniques to lead his partner
all the way to her brink. He can try to bring her to a series of
orgasms, perha ps superficial and diffuse, or to one Big 0, deep
and explosive. The former is the likely result of clitoral-oriented
love-play and coitus; the latter of techniques aimed especially at
the front vaginal wall and the cervix. Unless she is fettered psychologically or has a physiological
defect, any woman can be brought to the height of passion. A
woman in ecstasy is one of nature's loveliest sights-not only a
boost for her partner's sexual ego, but also one of the most power
ful aphrodisiacs available to him. A man who is good in bed is re
warded in more than one respect. In a sexually excited woman,
the vulva, clitoris, and vaginal passage are all highly congested;
the folds of the vaginal walls swell and bulge, and the cervix dips
downwar d. These alterations, and the ample lubrication of all
these parts, mean a soft, warm, elastic embrace for the man. When a woman is near a much-delayed, intense orgasm, she
can please her partner with the Butterfly Quiver. If she has trained
herself in the maneuver, she can initiate it herself at the critical
moment; if she is untrained, her partner's skill may have brought
her to such a state that her grotto muscles go into similar involun

2
	from
lungs	results	in	a	reduction	of	CO
2
	in	the	blood,	tissues	and	cells. The	release	of	oxygen	from	red	blood	cells	depends	on	the	partial	pressure	or
quantity	of	carbon	dioxide	in	your	lungs/arterial	blood. When	one	is	over
breathing,	carbon	dioxide	is	removed	from	the	body,	causing	the	oxygen	to
“stick”	to	hemoglobin	within	the	red	blood	cells. This	prevents	its	release	into
tissues	and	organs. This	bond,	discovered	in	1904,	is	known	as	the	Bohr
Effect. It	is	worth	noting	that	during	normal	conditions,	75%	of	your	intake	of
oxygen	is	exhaled	while	breathing	a	healthy	volume	of	four	to	six	litres	per
minute. Even	during	intense	exercise,	it	is	estimated	that	25%	of	our	oxygen
intake	is	exhaled. Breathing	a	volume	greater	than	normal	does	not	increase
the	amount	of	oxygen	in	your	blood,	as	it	is	already	97–98%	saturated.The	Bohr	Effect
simply	explained

Healthy	people	have	quiet	and	unnoticeable	breathing. While	they	are	resting,
you	cannot	see	or	hear	their	breathing. Quiet	breathing	ensures	optimum	partial	pressure	of	carbon	dioxide	within
your	lungs,	blood,	tissues	and	cells. The	release	of	oxygen	from	your	blood
depends	on	the	presence	of	carbon	dioxide. Over	breathing	causes	a	loss	of	carbon	dioxide	from	your	lungs,	blood,	tissues
and	cells. This	results	in	less	oxygen	being	released	from	your	blood	into	your	tissues
and	organs. The	more	you	breathe,	the	more	your	body	is	being	starved	of
oxygen. Breathing	through	your	mouth,	sighs,	sniffing,	noticeable	breathing,	hearing
your	breathing	during	rest	or	having	a	low	Control	Pause	(explained	later)
indicates	that	you	are	starving	your	body	of	oxygen. Your	brain	is	being
starved,	resulting	in	anxiety,	depression	and	stress. The	calmer	and	quieter	you	breathe,	the	larger	your	blood	vessels	open,
enabling	better	circulation	and	distribution	of	oxygen	throughout	the
body,	including	the	brain. Oxygenate	your	brain—breathe	less. Dilation	of	blood	vessels	and	airways
C
arbon	dioxide	relaxes	the	smooth	muscles	that	surround	the	airways,
arteries	and	capillaries. With	a	normal	breathing	volume	of	5	litres	of	air	per	minute,	the	partial
pressure	of	carbon	dioxide	amounts	to	40mmHg. Each	1	mmHg	drop	of
arterial	CO
2
	reduces	blood	flow	to	the	brain	by	2%. (2)	In	other	words,oxygenation	of	your	brain	significantly	decreases	when	you	breathe	heavily. The	heavier	you	breathe,	the	more	you	feed	your	hyperventilation	or
overbreathing	related	problems. Have	you	ever	noticed	that	you	get	light-
headed	after	taking	a	number	of	big	breaths? Have	you	ever	noticed	being
very	tired	in	the	morning	after	a	night’s	breathing	through	the	mouth? How
tired	are	you	after	a	day’s	talking? Do	you	notice	that,	as	you	get	stressed,
your	breathing	gets	faster,	resulting	in	a	mental	block	and	difficulty	in	making
worthwhile	decisions? Heavy	breathing	feeds	anxiety	and	stress.Overbreathing	causes	depression,	stress	and	anxiety
L
ower	carbon	dioxide	within	the	blood	causes	a	constriction	of	the	carotid
artery,	the	main	blood	vessel	going	to	the	brain. The	extent	of	constriction
depends	on	genetic	predisposition	but	has	been	estimated	by	Gibbs	(1992)	to
be	as	much	as	50%	for	those	with	anxiety	and	panic	attacks. (3)	This	finding	is
also	supported	by
Ball	&	Shekhar	(1997). (4)

Other	researchers,	including	Balestrino	and	Somjen	(1988)(5)	and	Huttunen
et	al. (1999),(6)	have	demonstrated	that	CO
2
	reduces	cortical	excitability. Cited	in	Normal	Breathing:	the	key	to	vital	health,	“breathing	too	much
makes	the	human	brain	abnormally	excited	due	to	reduced	CO
2
concentrations. As	a	result,	the	brain	gets	literally	out	of	control	due	to
appearance	of	spontaneous	and	asynchronous	(‘self-generated’)	thoughts.”
Balestrino	and	Somjen	(1988)	in	their	summary	directly	claimed	that,	“The
brain,	by	regulating	breathing,	controls	its	own	excitability.”(7)

Dr	Robert	Fried,	professor	of	psychology,	states	that	“the	first	stage	of
chronic	graded	hypoxia	(insufficient	oxygen),	which	has	repeatedly	been
shown	in	the	case	of	chronic	hyperventilation,	is	depression	of	mood	and
activity.”(8)

Cardiologist	Claude	Lum	comments	that	“Hyperventilation	presents	a
collection	of	bizarre	and	often	apparently	unrelated	symptoms,	which	may
affect	any	part	of	the	body,	and	any	organ	or	any	system.”(9)	He	further	labels
hyperventilation	syndrome	as	the	fat	file	syndrome,	noting	that	patients	go
from	doctor	to	doctor	in	an	attempt	to	get	help	for	their	symptoms. However,
because	chronic	hyperventilation	is	overlooked	in	most	instances,	the	patient
might	be	told	after	a	series	of	tests	that	there	is	nothing	wrong	with	him	or
her,	thus	increasing	the	size	of	the	patients’	file	and	further	adding	to	his	or
her	anxiety. In	the	late	Professor	Buteyko’s	words,	“Exhaling	Carbon	Dioxide	from	the
organism	brings	about	spasms	in	bronchi,	vessels	and	intestines,	etc. This
reduces	oxygen	supply,	leading	to	oxygen	deficiency,	making	one’s	breath
heavier,	thus	completing	the	vicious	circle.”What	is	the	fat	file	syndrome? Louise’s	personal	account:

“For	example,	because	I	am	prone	to	worry	and	overthink	things,	I	get
myself	worked	up	into	a	right	state	about	my	symptoms. At	different	times,
I	was	convinced	that	I	had	a	brain	tumor,	MS,	a	heart	problem,	bowel
cancer,	etc. I	had	blood	test	after	blood	test,	an	ECG	test,	a	scan,	and
nothing	was	found	to	be	wrong. My	whole	family	and	my	doctor,	and
probably	most	of	my	friends,	think	I’m	a	hypochondriac...	but	I	knew	that
something	was	not	right. I	just	didn’t	make	the	connection	to	my	breathing,
so	my	symptoms	went	on	and	on	and	I	felt	like	I	was	going	mad. For	lots	of
people,	reading	your	book	will	be	a	real	epiphany...	and	they	might	need
some	reassurance	early	on	that	they’re	not	alone	and	not	mad	after	all,	and
that	a	lot	of	their	symptoms	will	go	away. Not	worrying	about	the
symptoms	immediately	reduces	stress	levels	and	hence	breathing.”
	Stress,	anxiety	and	anger	causes	overbreathing
A
ccording	to	the	famous	physiologist	Walter	Cannon,	stress	activates	the

ing	its	“mechanism	of	action.”	And	knowing	its	mechanism	of	action
strengthens	the	evidence. Another	way	of	saying	this	is	that	the	two	correlated
factors	are	related	in	a	“biologically	plausible”	way. If	a	relationship	is
biologically	plausible,	it	is	considered	much	more	reliable.METANALYSIS
Finally,	we	should	understand	the	concept	of	a	metanalysis. A	metanalysis
tabulates	the	combined	data	from	multiple	studies	and	analyzes	them	as	one
data	set. By	accumulating	and	analyzing	a	large	body	of	combined	data,	the
result	can	have	considerably	more	weight. Metanalysis	findings	are	therefore
more	substantial	than	the	findings	of	single	research	studies,	although,	as	with
everything	else,	there	may	be	exceptions. After	obtaining	the	results	from	a	variety	of	studies,	we	can	then	begin	to
use	these	tools	and	concepts	to	assess	the	weight	of	the	evidence. Through
this	effort,	we	can	begin	to	understand	what	is	most	likely	to	be	true,	and	we
can	behave	accordingly. Alternative	hypotheses	no	longer	seem	plausible,	and
we	can	be	very	confident	in	the	result. Absolute	proof,	in	the	technical	sense,
is	unattainable	and	unimportant. But	common	sense	proof	(99%	certainty)	is
attainable	and	critical. For	example,	it	was	through	this	process	of	interpreting
research	that	we	formed	our	beliefs	regarding	smoking	and	health. Smoking
has	never	been	“100%”	proven	to	cause	lung	cancer,	but	the	odds	that
smoking	is	unrelated	to	lung	cancer	are	so	astronomically	low	that	the	matter
has	long	been	considered	settled.3
Turning	Off	Cancer
A
MERICANS	DREAD	CANCER
	more	than	any	other	disease. Slowly	and	painfully
being	consumed	by	cancer	for	months,	even	years,	before	passing	away	is	a
terrifying	prospect. This	is	why	cancer	is	perhaps	the	most	feared	of	the	major
diseases. So	when	the	media	reports	a	newly	found	chemical	carcinogen,	the	public
takes	notice	and	reacts	quickly. Some	carcinogens	cause	outright	panic. Such
was	the	case	a	few	years	ago	with	Alar,	a	chemical	that	was	routinely	sprayed
on	apples	as	a	growth	regulator. Shortly	after	a	report	from	the	Natural
Resources	Defense	Council	(NRDC)	titled	“Intolerable	Risk:	Pesticides	in
Our	Children’s	Food,”
1
	the	television	program
60	Minutes
	aired	a	segment	on
Alar. In	February	1989	a	representative	of	NRDC	said	on	CBS’s
60	Minutes
that	the	apple	industry	chemical	was	“the	most	potent	carcinogen	in	the	food
supply.”
2,	3
The	public	reaction	was	swift. One	woman	called	state	police	to	chase
down	a	school	bus	to	confiscate	her	child’s	apple. 4
	School	systems	across	the
country,	in	New	York,	Los	Angeles,	Atlanta	and	Chicago,	among	others,
stopped	serving	apples	and	apple	products. According	to	John	Rice,	former
chairman	of	the	U.S.	Apple	Association,	the	apple	industry	took	an	economic
walloping,	losing	over	$250	million. 5
	Finally,	in	response	to	the	public	outcry,
the	production	and	use	of	Alar	came	to	a	halt	in	June	of	1989. 3
The	Alar	story	is	not	uncommon. Over	the	past	several	decades,	several
chemicals	have	been	identified	in	the	popular	press	as	cancer-causing	agents. You	may	have	heard	of	some:
Aminotriazole	(herbicide	used	on	cranberry	crops,	causing	the“cranberry	scare’”	of	1959)
DDT	(widely	known	after	Rachel	Carson’s	book,
Silent	Spring)
Nitrites	(a	meat	preservative	and	color	and	flavor	enhancer	used	in	hot
dogs	and	bacon)
Red	Dye	Number	2
Artificial	sweeteners	(including	cyclamates	and	saccharin)
Dioxin	(a	contaminant	of	industrial	processes	and	of	Agent	Orange,	a
defoliant	used	during	the	Vietnam	War)
Aflatoxin	(a	fungal	toxin	found	on	moldy	peanuts	and	corn)
I	know	these	unsavory	chemicals	quite	well. I	was	a	member	of	the
National	Academy	of	Sciences	Expert	Panel	on	Saccharin	and	Food	Safety
Policy	(1978–79),	which	was	charged	with	evaluating	the	potential	danger	of
saccharin	at	a	time	when	the	public	was	up	in	arms	after	the	FDA	proposed

dioxin;	I	have	firsthand	knowledge	of	the	MIT	lab	that	did	the	key	work	on
nitrites,	and	I	spent	many	years	researching	and	publishing	on	aflatoxin,	one
of	the	most	carcinogenic	chemicals	ever	discovered—at	least	for	rats. But	while	these	chemicals	are	significantly	different	in	their	properties,
they	all	have	a	similar	story	with	regard	to	cancer. In	each	and	every	case,
research	has	demonstrated	that	these	chemicals	may	increase	cancer	rates	in
experimental	animals. The	case	of	nitrites	serves	as	an	excellent	example.THE	HOT	DOG	MISSILE
If	you	hazard	to	call	yourself	“middle-aged”	or	older,	when	I	say,	“Nitrites,
hot	dogs	and	cancer,”	you	might	rock	back	in	your	chair,	nod	your	head,	and
say,	“Oh	yeah,	I	remember	something	about	that.”	For	the	younger	folks—
well,	listen	up,	because	history	has	a	funny	way	of	repeating	itself. The	time:	the	early	1970s. The	scene:	the	Vietnam	War	was	beginning	to
wind	down,	Richard	Nixon	was	about	to	be	forever	linked	to	Watergate,	the
energy	crisis	was	about	to	create	lines	at	gas	stations	and	nitrite	was	becoming
a	headline	word. Sodium	Nitrite:
	A	meat	preservative	used	since	the	1920s. 6
	It	kills
bacteria	and	adds	a	happy	pink	color	and	desirable	taste	to	hot	dogs,
bacon	and	canned	meat. In	1970,	the	journal
Nature
	reported	that	the	nitrite	we	consume	may	be
reacting	in	our	bodies	to	form	nitrosamines. 7
Nitrosamines:

Hold	on	a	second. Why	are	these	scary	nitrosamines	“anticipated	to	be
human	carcinogens”? The	short	answer:	animal	experiments	have	shown	that
as	chemical	exposure	increases,	incidence	of	cancer	also	increases. But	that’s
not	adequate. We	need	a	more	complete	answer. Let’s	look	at	one	nitrosamine,	NSAR	(N-nitrososarcosine). In	one	study,
twenty	rats	were	divided	into	two	groups,	each	exposed	to	a	different	level	of
NSAR. The	high-dose	rats	were	given	twice	the	amount	that	the	low-dose	rats
received. Of	rats	given	the	lower	level	of	NSAR,	just	over	35%	of	them	died
from	throat	cancer. Of	rats	given	the	higher	levels,	100%	died	of	cancer
during	the	second	year	of	the	experiment. 9–11
How


	that	might
do	“harm”	to	their	industry. With	such	surveillance,	the	industry	could	more
effectively	respond	to	unexpected	discoveries
from	researchers	that	might
make	otherwise	unanticipated	news. I	had	learned	well	that,	when	the	stakes
are	high,	industry	was	not	averse	to	putting	its	own	spin	on	a	story. They	listed	about	nine	potentially	damaging	projects,	and	I	had	the
dubious	distinction	of	being	the	only	researcher	responsible	for	two	of	the
projects. I	was	named	once	for	the	China	Study,	which	one	of	the	members
was	assigned	to	watch	over,	and	once	for	my	association	with	the	American
Institute	for	Cancer	Research	(AICR),	especially	my	chairing	of	the	review
panel	that	decided	which	research	applications	on	diet	and	cancer	got	funded. Another	panel	member	had	the	task	of	keeping	an	eye	on	the	AICR	activity. After	learning	of	The	Airport	Club,	and	of	the	individual	assigned	to
watch	over	me	at	the	AICR	grant	meetings,	I	was	in	a	position	to	see	how	his
spying	was	going	to	unfold. I	went	into	the	first	AICR	review	panel	meeting
after	learning	of	the	Club	with	an	eye	on	the	spy	who	was	keeping	an	eye	on
me! One	might	argue	that	this	industry-funded	“spying”	was	not	illegal,	and
that	it	is	prudent	for	a	business	to	keep	tabs	on	potentially	damaging
information	that	might	affect	its	future. I	agree	completely,	even	if	it	was
disconcerting	to	find	myself	on	the	list	of	those	being	spied	on. But	industry
does	more	than	just	keep	tabs	on	“dangerous”	research. It	actively	markets	its
version,	regardless	of	potentially	disastrous	health	effects,	and	corrupts	the
integrity	of	the	science	to	do	so. This	is	especially	troubling	when	academicscientists	do	the	spying	and	hide	their	intentions.POWERFUL	GROUPS

As	the	best	avenue	to	increase	fluid	milk	consumption	long-term,
children	are	without	a	doubt	the	future	of	dairy	consumption. That’s
why	the	dairy	checkoff	continues	to	implement	school	milk	marketing
programs	as	one	way	to	help	increase	kids’	fluid	milk	consumption. Dairy	producers	…	launched	two	groundbreaking	initiatives	in
2001. A	yearlong	school	milk	research	program	that	began	in	the	fall	of
2001	examines	how	improved	packaging,	additional	flavors,	coolers
with	merchandising	and	better	temperature	regulation	can	affect	fluid
milk	consumption	and	kids’	attitudes	toward	milk	both	in	and	out	of
school. The	study	concludes	at	the	end	of	the	2001–02	school	year. Also,	dairy	producers	and	processors	worked	together	to	conduct	a
five-month	vending	study	in	middle	and	high	schools	in	five	major
U.S.	markets. The	study	revealed	that	many	students	would	choose
milk	over	competitive	beverages	if	it	were	available	when,	where	and
how	they	wanted. Many	other	successful	school	programs	continue	to	encourage	children	to
drink	milk. Nutrition	education	programs,	such	as	“Pyramid	Explorations”
and	“Pyramid	Cafe,”	teach	students	that	dairy	products	are	a	key	part	of	a
healthy	diet;	the	“Cold	Is	Cool”	program	teaches	school	cafeteria	managers
how	to	keep	milk	cold,	just	how	kids	like	it;	and	the	checkoff	is	helping
expand	dairy-friendly	school	breakfast	programs. In	addition,	the	popular	“got
milk”	campaign	continues	to	reach	children	at	school	and	through	such	kid-
focused	media	outlets	as	Nickelodeon	and	the	Cartoon	Network. These	activities	are	far	from	small-scale;	in	1999,	“Chef	Combo’s
Fantastic	Adventures,”	an	“educational”	(marketing)	set	of	lesson	plans
produced	by	the	dairy	industry,	“was	placed	in	76%	of	preschool	kindergarten

 such as thiaminase and avidin, need
not worry us providing we use the foods containing them in
moderation and in proper combination with other foods. P
ARASITIC INFECTIONS
   In sections of China, Japan, Formosa, and other areas of the
Far East, human parasitic infections have been quite common
and have seriously reduced the efficiency of many of those affected. Unsanitary disposal of human nightsoil pollutes the
water and soil in these areas, which in turn infects crabs,
crayfish, snails, water plants, and vegetables with parasites. In many cases the nightsoil is even used as fertilizer for the
water vegetables and water nuts. Lakes are so polluted that wading or bathing in them brings about human fluke
infections. When the natives consume the raw fish, snails and
red ling water nuts of the lakes, together with the raw
ve
getables of the soil, they are re-infected a gain and a gain with liver flukes, lung flukes, and other parasites. In certain
other parts of the world some parasitic infection has also been
reported, usually as a result of eating infected fresh-water fish and infected pork. No one need doubt that parasitic infections can result from
the consumption of raw foods which are contaminated with parasitic organisms. However, these are problems which are
restricted primarily to parts of the earth where human night-
soil is used as fertilizer and facilities for the disposal of
sewage are inadequate. When modern sanitation is absent,
even the drinking water may be so polluted that boiling is essential. In this country, as well as many others, such
problems do not usually confront us. Our watercress and
vegetables are generally produced under sanitary conditions
without the aid of human nightsoil. Unfortunately many
towns and cities do dispose of their sewage into rivers, and since this is true, fresh-water fish are often infested with
tapeworms and other parasites. The production of swine
under unsanitary, poor nutritional conditions has also left us
with the problem of trichina infection. It is important to recognize that even when foods are
contaminated with parasites, cooking does not always render
the foods safe for human consumption. The development of parasites within the body probably depends far more upon the
physiological conditions which are provided for the parasites
than it does upon the frequency of infection. Scientists have
repeatedly noted that poorly nourished animals are infected
by parasites far more frequently than are well nourished animals. Furthermore, once infection does take place, the
damage inflicted upon the host appears to depend upon the
state of nutrition, with malnourished animals or people always suffering the most. Pottenger noted that when cats
were fed raw meat they were relatively free from intestinal
parasites, whereas those given cooked meat, in which all
parasites were supposedly killed, were severely affected. Experts on the subject of canine nutrition point out that tapeworm infection is not generally associated with the use of
raw meat by dogs. Yet, dogs living almost exclusively upon
heat-processed commercial pet foods are often heavily
infested with tapeworms a nd other parasites of every
conceivable description. It is estimated that 18 to 25 per cent of all Americans are infected with sub-clinical trichinosis,
and practically every one of these people consumed cooked
pork rather than raw pork. Indeed, hogs in this country are
affected with trichina in only 1.5 per cent of all cases, or less
than one-tenth as often as humans. It is the human population, consuming cooked foods, which is the primary reservoir of
parasite infection for man y domestic animals. The basic human problem is one of reinfection. It is clear, then, that the
cooking of food does not get at the primary source of the
parasite problem, although it may be recommended in the case of known contaminated foods. P
ALATABILITY OF RAW FOOD
   In a limited number of cases—probably not over ten per
cent—cooking may be considered useful to improve the palatability of foods. Almost all raw vegetables are suitable for consumption, although the cooked products are often considered more acceptable. Raw carob pods are edible, but
they must be ground into a meal and lightly toasted in order
to bring out a chocolate-like flavor. Pure maple sap is a very palatable food, but the very rich maple flavor is brought out
only through prolonged boiling. Popcorn is rendered edible
through the application of heat. Certain grains, as well as
meats, have not been widely used in their raw state, and it is possible that cooking is essential for their full palatability. One must not deduce from these facts that raw foods as a
whole are less palatable than cooked foods or that an exclusive raw diet is less palatable than a cooked diet. Actually our food habits are determined primarily by our
dietary during infancy and childhood. As adults, we may prefer cooked foods because we were trained to like them. We may actually dread to taste a particular raw food simply because we never received it as a child. But during the early
part of life we can be trained to appreciate the flavor of
practically any food, cooked or raw, and if given the
opportunity to consume raw foods, there is seldom hesitancy
in doing so. For instance, Dr. Clara M. Davis conducted an experiment on the self-choice of foods by infants and young
children, and found that the favorite of all foods was raw
calves' brains. These were eaten in amazing quantities, often as much as a pound a meal. Children given raw meat, raw
grain products, raw yams, raw potatoes, etc., learn to
appreciate them just as well as they do raw fruits and nuts. Our customary practice of dividing foods into types which
can be eaten raw and types which must be cooked is based primarily upon childhood habits. Aside from the exceptional
cases which have been mentioned, those foods which are
considered best raw are those we have always eaten raw;
those which are considered best cooked are those we have
always eaten cooked. Actually, at least 90 per cent of all the foods which have ever been eaten by man are fully edible in
their raw state. We have probably not utilized half of these. Once our dietary pattern has been established and carried
into adulthood, there is still every opportunity for change. People who have been trained to appreciate the flavor of
cooked foods to raw foods must undergo a re-education of the sense of taste. This is not a difficult procedure, and surprising
as it may seem, it can be accomplished quite rapidly. Within
just a few weeks, one may learn to appreciate the flavors of
many raw foods which formerly were consistently avoided. To accomplish this, you need only adopt a "nibbling" habit in which small but increasing quantities of the respective foods
are consumed every day. At first you may find certain foods
bitter or flat tasting, but gradually you will find them to be
more flavorful and pleasing. Ev entually the satisfaction in
consuming raw foods of nearly all kinds may exceed that formerly derived only from cooked foods. This does not
mean that every food will be equally palatable after re-
educating the sense of taste—there will always be certain
preferences of one food to another—but it does mean that raw
foods as a whole may be consumed with an optimum degree
of gustatory pleasure. It is clear that there are limitations in the application of raw
food therapy. It is enough to recognize the value of raw foods
without assuming that no reason for cookery can ever exist. Reasons for cookery have existed, but they are less common
today than they were in the past. We now have excellent
facilities for the preservation and transportation of raw foods. We do not have to depend upon bitter acorns, bitter cassava
roots, and other foods containing heat-labile poisons as
staples of our dietary. We do not have to avoid raw vegetables in fear of contamination with harmful bacteria. We
do have an abundant supply of fruits, nuts, and other highly
palatable raw foods, available for all classes of people. In
short, those factors preventing the full utilization of raw foods
are no longer present. Modern civilization has made the extensive application of raw food therapy possible. It has
presented us with an exciting "elixir of life" which can
transform the whole state of our existence. 8
RAW FOOD IN SELECTION
THE USE OF FOOD in its uncooked state is the key principle in
establishing a healthful dietary. This, however, does not represent the final answer to all nutritional problems. We can
live exclusively upon raw food and yet suffer from nutritional
deficiencies and imbalances if no consideration is given to the proper selection of such foods. An unbalanced diet of
uncooked foods may be less damaging than an unbalanced
diet of conventional foods, but it is still not to be desired. It is well known that different selections of natural foods in
primitive life produced different reactions in health and
disease. For our own purposes it is necessary to analyze each
of the basic food types, and many specific foods within these
types, in order to determine the most effective way of selecting food and balancing the components of our dietary
intake. In the usual textbook analysis of food selection, it is
customary to rate the value of various foodstuffs in relation to
their economic cost and their ease of being included in the
dietaries of all income groups. In the usual vegetarian
analysis of food selection, it is customary to rate the value


 with meals over a period of 30 days. You can add more ju ice to
your diet during that time, and you should always take juice after the bulk a nd clay water. If it is possible, get into some extra
bowel elimination through enemas, perhaps using clay water and coffee instead of plain water. This is a kind of elimination
program you can use while still working at your regular job. There are other w ays to help the bowel, and I have mentioned taking
care of the mental attitudes as well as conditions in the body. Both are very important. THE BENEFITS OF ALFALFA TABLETS
The second thing I emphasize in the bowel management program is the taking of four alfalfa tablets with each meal. As far as I am
concerned, this is almost a panacea. Some health professionals may think I’m going a bit overboard, but I want to tell you th at
alfalfa tablets provide an excellent natural fiber bulk, and by stimulating the b owel to work against the fiber, we begin to
compensate for inherent weakness, by building better tone. Juice is not suitable for this purpose because pulp or bulk is nec essary. Some will say that you should take the alfalfa tablets along with additional ch lorophyll; I don’t find this necessary, because there is
chlorophyll in the alfalfa tablets as well. Chlorophyll is a great deodorizer, a great builder, a great acid neutralizer and one of the
greatest foods for feeding acidophilus bacteria. I use alfalfa tablets mainly to get into the bowel pockets. I am sure this approach is
right, because since beginning to use it, I have observed more healing signs associated with the bowel from my iridology anal yses
than anything I have ever used. Of course, I’m kickin g a lazy dog; I’m kicking a lazy colon. Now, we may encounter a few minor
problems. There may be more gas, more disturbance and when we have more gas, what can we do? We have to neutralize the gas,
so I suggest adding a good digestant. The digestant should  be a whole digestant that takes care of starches, sugars and proteins. It is
made of pancreatic substance and a little betaine hydrochloric acid. It is an all -around good digestant, but vegetarians might prefer
to use the herbal digestants available. For  vegetarians we recommend a substance called D&F, short for digestion and flatulence
(gas), because we may begin to stir these up when we get into the bowel pockets. I know of patients who began their diets and
reported they had more gas than ever before. This is sometimes to be expected. Some people practically live on coffee and donuts,
and they find they don’t have gas, but they are worn out. They have no energy. You have to “rough it out” through this initia l
period of regeneration —this period of making  new tissue - before your digestive system will normalize. A certain amount of gas is normal for the average person. I don’t believe anybody has a perfect bowel. I think a little gas w ill be
produced by anyone, and every farmer knows that when you give a lot of fresh alfalfa to a horse he has more gas than usual. Is that
horse getting worse? No, it is in better condition. We find that it has a better bowel. So I believe alfalfa tablets and the digestant are
very important. We find that the acidophilus cult ure, given morning and evening, is an excellent way of developing good bacteria
in the bowel. At the Battle Creek Sanitarium, researchers found that meat was very detrimental to the bowel because it is ver y
putrefactive. It is best to cut meat to a minimum  in the diet and to upgrade the intake of vegetables. More greens will help to
develop acidophilus bacteria. Chocolate, tea (not herb teas), white sugar and coffee break down acidophilus bacteria so we mu st
eliminate or minimize the use of such substances. A successful bowel management program requires that we go a different way. In following a program for the bowel, there are some excellent corrective exercises. There is an exercise to use on the slant  board
which involves vigorous tapping of the abdomen w hile stretching the upper torso from side to side. This exercise gently pulls the
bowel down in the direction of the shoulders while upside -down on the board. I’m interested in getting the bowel in the prefer
position. I believe we have been crowding the b owel. So we must go to work on it. Doing the bicycle pedaling exercise while up -side down on the slant board is a wonderful exercise. For another type of exercise,
lie down and take a rubber bailor tennis ball and rub it around in a circle on your abdomen. The round surface of the ball gets right
down into the bowel and gives it an internal exercise, more so than rubbing on the outside. There are other exercises to lift  the
bowel and manipulate the prolapsus back into position. SLANT BOARD EXERCISES
(For Prolapsus and Regenerating the Vital Nerve Centers of the Brain) When there is a lack of tone in the muscles, we can expect
prolapsus of the abdominal organs. The heart, lacking tone, cannot circulate blood properly throughout the body. Likewise,
arteries  and veins cannot contract to help the blood fight gravity and get into the brain tissues. There are some people who
apparently have tried everything to get well, who still find all organs working under par. Many people do not realize that th e
quickening f orce for every organ of the body comes from the brain. People whose occupations require them to sit or stand
continually are unable to get the blood into the brain tissues because the tired organs cannot force the blood uphill. If we deny the
brain tissues  good blood in the proper amount, eventually every organ in our body will suffer. The heart gets its start from the
brain and continues its everlasting pumping because of it. No organ can do without the brain. I attribute the success of my h ealing
work to the very fact that I definitely recognize that the brain must be fed properly. Slanting board exercises are absolutely
necessary to regain perfect health. CAUTIONARY NOTE
There are many cases where the board is contra -indicated. It is best in most cases to get professional advice, for some people have
had unhappy experiences due to the very fact they started too strenuous a program to begin with. If you haven’t done much
exercising of the abdominal muscles, it is best to take these exercises slowly and gr adually increase them as you get stronger. Do not use the board in cases of high blood pressure, hemorrhages, some tubercular conditions, cancer in the pelvic cavity,
appendicitis, ulcers of the stomach or intestines or pregnancy, unless under the care of a physician. The slanting board exercises
are practically the same as any other lying -down exercises. The most important exercise is to hold on to the sides of the board bringing the knees up to the chest. This forces all the a bdominal
organs up toward th e shoulders. While in this position, twist the head from side to side and in all directions, thus utilizing the extra
force to circulate blood to congested areas of the head, especially bringing the stomach and abdominal organs up toward the c hest
while ho lding the breath. Slanting board exercises are especially good in cases of inflammations and congestions above the
shoulders, such as sinus trouble, bad eyes, falling hair, head eczema, ear conditions and similar troubles. Slanting board ex ercise is
needed  and has helped more than any other treatment in cases of heart trouble, fatigue, dizziness, poor memory and paralysis. The
average person should maintain the foot end of the board at chair height for all exercises, but if dizzy at first, the foot e nd of t he
board should not be raised quite so high. Exercise only 5 minutes a day. Gradually increase time spent on the board. The aver age
patient should lie on the board 10 minutes at 3 o’clock in the afternoon and again just before going to bed. After retiring,  lift the
buttocks to allow the organs to return to a normal position. SUGGESTED EXERCISES (USE ANKLE STRAPS WHILE DOING THE FOLLOWING EXERCISES)
(Numbered exercises correspond to illustrations.) 1. Lie full length, allowing gravity to help the abdominal organs into their position. For best results, lie on board at least 10
minutes. 2. While lying flat on back, stretch the abdomen by putting arms above head. Bring arms above head 10 to 15 times: this stret ches
the abdominal muscles and pulls the abdomen do wn toward the shoulders. 3. Bring abdominal organs toward shoulders while holding breath. Move the organs back and forth by drawing them upward,
contracting abdominal muscles, then allowing them to go back to a relaxed position. Do this 10 to 15 times. 4. Pat abdomen vigorously with open hands. Lean to one side then to the other, patting the stretched side. Pat 10 to 15 times ea ch
side. Bring the body to sitting position, using the abdominal muscles. Return to lying position. Do this 3 to 4 times, if pos sible. Do
only if doctor orders. HOLD ON TO THE HANDLES, FEET OUT OF STRAPS, WHILE DOING THESE EXERCISES:
5. Bend knees and legs at hips. While in this position:


have, you will have. And I promise you this much, after you have realized
your objective, on reflection you will have to admit that this conscious
reasoning mind of yours could never have devised the way. You are that and have that which this very moment you appropriated. Do
not discuss it. Do not look to someone for encouragement because the
thing might not come. It has come. Go about your Father's business doing
everything normally and let these things happen in your world. More Free Books Law of Attraction HavenLesson II: Assumptions Harden Into Fact
The Bible of ours has nothing to do with history. Some of you may yet be
inclined tonight to believe that, although we can give it a psychological in -
terpretation, it still could be left in its present form and be interpreted lit -
erally. You cannot do it. The Bible has no reference at all to people or to
events as you have been taught to believe. The sooner you begin to rub
out that picture the better. We are going to take a few stories tonight, and again I am going to re -
mind you that you must re-enact all of these stories within your own
mind. Bear in mind that although they seem to be stories of people fully awake,
the drama is really between you, the sleeping one, the deeper you, and
the conscious waking you. They are personified as people, but when you
come to the point of application you must remember the importance of
the drowsy state. All creation, as we told you last night, takes place in the state of sleep, or
that state which is akin to sleep – the sleepy, drowsy state. We told you last night the first man is not yet awakened. You are Adam,
the first man, still in the profound sleep. The creative you is the fourth-di -
mensional you whose home is simply the state you enter when men call
you asleep. *****
Our first story for tonight is found in the Gospel of John. As you hear it
unfold before you, I want you to compare it in your mind's eye to the sto -
ry you heard last night from the book of Genesis. The first book of the
Bible, the book of Genesis, historians claim is the record of events which
occurred on earth some 3000 years before the events recorded in the
book of John. I ask you to be rational about it and see if you do not think
the same writer could have written both stories. You be the judge as to
whether the same inspired man could not have told the same story and
told it differently. This is a very familiar story, the story of the trial of Jesus. In this Gospel
of John it is recorded that Jesus was brought before Pontius Pilate, and
the crowd clamored for his life, they wanted Jesus. Pilate turned to them
and said:
“But ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the
Passover; will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews. Then cried they all again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barab -
More Free Books Law of Attraction Havenbas was a robber. ” (John 18:39, 40). You are told that Pilate had no choice in the matter, he was only a judge
interpreting law, and this was the law. The people had to be given that
which they requested. Pilate could not release Jesus against the wishes of
the crowd, and so he released Barabbas and gave unto them Jesus to be
crucified. Now bear in mind that your consciousnesses is God. There is no other
God. And you are told that God has a son whose name is Jesus. If you will
take the trouble to look up the word Barabbas in your concordance, you
will see that it is a contraction of two Hebraic words: BAR, which means a
daughter, son or child, and ABBA, which means father. Barabbas is the
son of the great father. And Jesus in the story is called the Savior, the Son
of the Father. We have two sons in this story. And we have two sons in the story of Esau
and Jacob. Bear in mind that Isaac was blind, and justice to be true must
be blind folded. Although in this case Pilate is not physically blind, the
part given to Pilate implies that he is blind because he is a judge. On all
the great law buildings of the world we see the lady or the man who rep -
resents justice as being blindfolded. “Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment. ”
(John 7:24). Here we find Pilate playing the same part as Isaac. There are two sons. All the characters as they appear in this story can apply to your own life. You have a son that is robbing you this very moment of that which you
could be. If you came to this meeting tonight conscious of wanting something, de -
siring something, you walked in the company of Barabbas. For to desire is to confess that you do not now possess what you desire,
and because all things are yours, you rob yourself by living in the state of
desire. My savior is my desire. As I want something I am looking in to the
eyes of my savior. But if I continue wanting it, I deny my Jesus, my sav -
ior, for as I want I confess I am not and “except ye believe that I AM He
ye die in your sins. ” I cannot have and still continue to desire what I have. I may enjoy it, but I cannot continue wanting it. Here is the story. This is the feast of the Passover. Something is going to
change right now, something is going to passover. Man is incapable of
passing over from one state of consciousness into another unless he re -
leases from consciousness that which he now entertains, for it anchors
him where he is. More Free Books Law of Attraction HavenYou and I may go to physical feasts year after year as the sun enters the
great sign of Aries, but it means nothing to the true mystical Passover. To
keep the feast of the Passover, the psychological feast, I pass from one
state of consciousness into another. I do it by releasing Barabbas, the
thief and robber that robs me of that state which I could embody within
my world. The state I seek to embody is personified in the story as Jesus the Savior. If I become what I want to be then I am saved from what I was. If I do
not become it, I continue to keep locked within me a thief who robs me of
being that which I could be. These stories have no reference to any persons who lived nor to any
event that ever occurred upon earth. These characters are everlasting
characters in the mind of every man in the world. You and I perpetually
keep alive either Barabbas or Jesus. You know at every moment of time
who you are entertaining. Do not condemn a crowd for clamoring that they should release Barabbas
and crucify Jesus. It is not a crowd of people called Jews. They had noth -
ing to do with it. If we are wise, we too should clamor for the release of that state of mind
that limits us from being what we want to be, that restricts us, that does
not permit us to become the ideal that we seek and strive to attain in this
world. I am not saying that you are not tonight embodying Jesus. I only remind
you, that if at this very moment you have an unfulfilled ambition, then
you are entertaining that which denies the fulfillment of the ambition, and
that which denies it is Barabbas. To explain the mystical, psychological transformation known as the
Passover, or the crossing over, you must now become identified with the
ideal that you would serve, and you must remain faithful to the ideal. If
you remain faithful to it, you not only crucify it by your faithfulness, but
you resurrect it unaided by a man. As the story goes, no man could rise early enough to roll away the stone. Unaided by a man the stone was removed, and what seemingly was dead
and buried was resurrected unassisted by a man. You walk in the consciousness of being that which you want to be, no one
sees it as yet, but you do not need a man to roll away the problems and
the obstacles of life in order to express that which you are conscious of
being. That state has its own unique way of becoming embodied in this
More Free Books Law of Attraction Havenworld, of becoming flesh that the whole world may touch it. Now you can see the relationship between the story of Jesus and the sto -
ry of Isaac and his two sons, where one transplanted the other, where one
was called the Supplanter of the other. Why do you think those who com -
plied the sixty odd books of our Bible made Jacob the forefather of Jesus. They took Jacob, who was called the Supplanter, and made him father of
twelve, then they took Judah or praise, the fifth son and made him the
fore of Joseph, who is supposed to have fathered in some strange way
this one called Jesus. Jesus must supplant Barabbas as Jacob must sup -
plant and take the place of Esau. Tonight you can sit right here and conduct the trial of your two sons, one
of whom you want released. You can become the crowd who clamors for


off shared a wonderful quote from the great Albert
Einstein: "The most important question any human being can ask
themselves is, 'Is this a friendly Universe?'" Knowing the law of attraction, the only answer to give is, "Yes,
the Universe is friendly." Why? Because when you answer in this
way, by the law of attraction you must experience that. Albert Ein-
stein posed this powerful question because he knew The Secret. He knew by asking the question it would force us to think and
make a choice. He gave us a great opportunity, just by posing the
question. To take Einstein's intention even further, you can affirm and pro-
claim, "This is a magnificent Universe. The Universe is bringing all
good things to me. The Universe is conspiring for me in all things. The Universe is supporting me in everything I do. The Universe
meets all my needs immediately." Know that this is a friendly Uni-
verse! JACKCANFlELD
Since I learned The Secret and started applying it to my life,
my life has truly become magical. I think the kind of life that
everybody dreams of is one I live on a day-to-day basis. I live
in a four-and-a-half-million-dollar mansion. I have a wife to
die for. I get to vacation in all the fabulous spots of the world. I've climbed mountains. I've explored. I've been on safaris. And all of this happened, and continues to happen, because
of knowing how to apply The Secret. The Secret Made Simple 41
BOB PROCTOR
Life can be absolutely phenomenal, and it should be, and it
will be, when you start using The Secret. This is your life, and it's been waiting for you to discover it! Up
until now you may have been thinking that life is hard and a strug-
gle, and so by the law of attraction you will have experienced life
as hard and a struggle. Begin right now to shout to the universe,
"Life is so easy! Life is so good! All good things come to me!" There is a truth deep down inside of you that has been waiting
for you to discover it, and that Truth is this: you deserve all good
things life has to offer. You know that inherently, because you feel
awful when you are experiencing the lack of good things. All
good things are your birthright! You are the creator of you, and
the law of attraction is your magnificent tool to create whatever
you want in your life. Welcome to the magic of life, and the mag-
nificence of You! The law of attraction is a law of nature. It is as impartial as the law
of gravity. Nothing can come into your experience unless you summon it
through persistent thoughts. To know what you're thinking, ask yourself how you are feeling. Emotions are valuable tools that instantly tell us what we are
thinking. It is impossible to feel bad and at the same time have good thoughts. Your thoughts determine your frequency, and your feelings tell you
immediately what frequency you are on. When you feel bad, you
are on the frequency of drawing more bad things. When you feel
good, you are powerfully attracting more good things to you. Secret Shifters, such as pleasant memories, nature, or your favorite
music, can change your feelings and shift your frequency in an in-
stant. The feeling of love is the highest frequency you can emit. The greater
the love you feel and emit, the greater the power you are harnessing. 43 You are a creator, and there is an easy process to create using the
law of attraction. The greatest teachers and avatars have shared
the Creative Process through their wondrous work, in a myriad of
forms. Some great teachers created stories to demonstrate how the
Universe works. The wisdom contained in their stories has been
handed down through the centuries and has become legendary. Many people living today do not realize that the essence of these
stories is the very truth of life. JAMES RAY
If you think about Aladdin and his lamp, Aladdin picks up the
lamp, dusts it off, and out pops the Genie. The Genie always

trace the story back to its origins there's absolutely no limit
whatsoever to the wishes. Think about that one. Now, let's take this metaphor and apply it to your life. Remember Aladdin is the one who always asks for what he
wants. Then you've got the Universe at large, which is the
Genie. Traditions have called it so many things—your holy
guardian angel, your higher self. We can put any label on
it, and you choose the one that works best for you, but every
tradition has told us there's something bigger than us. And
the Genie always says one thing:
"Your wish is my command!" This wonderful story demonstrates how your whole life and ev-
erything in it has been created by You. The Genie has simply an-
swered your every command. The Genie is the law of attraction,
and it is always present and always listening to everything you
think, speak, and act. The Genie assumes that everything you
think about, you want! That everything you speak about, you
want! That everything you act upon is what you want! You are the
Master of the Universe, and the Genie is there to serve you. The
Genie never questions your commands. You think it, and the Genie
immediately begins to leverage the Universe, through people, cir-
cumstances, and events, to fulfill your wish. How to Use the Secret 47
The Creative Process used in The Secret, which was taken from the
New Testament in the Bible, is an easy guideline for you to create
what you want in three simple steps. LISA NICHOLS
The first step is to ask. Make a command to the Universe. Let the
Universe know what you want. The Universe responds to your
thoughts. BOB PROCTOR
What do you really want? Sit down and write it out on a
piece of paper. Write it in the present tense. You might begin
by writing, "I am so happy and grateful now that..." And
then explain how you want your life to be, in every area. You get to choose what you want, but you must get clear about
what you want. This is your work. If you're not clear, then the law
of attraction cannot bring you what you want. You will be sending
out a mixed frequency and you can only attract mixed results. For
the first time in your life perhaps, work out what it is you really
want. Now that you know you can have, be, or do anything, and
there are no limits, what do you want? 48 The Secret
Asking is the first step in the Creative Process, so make it a habit to
ask. If you have to make a choice and you don't know which way
to go, ask! You should never be stumped on anything in your life. Just ask! DR. JOE VlTALE
This is really fun. It's like having the Universe as your
catalogue. You flip through it and say, "I'd like to have this
experience and I'd like to have that product and I'd like to
have a person like that." It is You placing your order with the
Universe. It's really that easy. You do not have to ask over and over again. Just ask once. It is
exactly like placing an order from a catalogue. You only ever order
something once. You don't place an order and then doubt the order
has been received and so place the order again, and then again, and
then again. You order once. It is the same with the Creative Process. Step One is simply your step to get clear about what you want. As
you get clear in your mind, you have asked. LISA NICHOLS
Step two is believe. Believe that it's already yours. Have what
I love to call unwavering faith. Believing in the unseen. How to Use the Secret 49
You must believe that you have received. You must know that what
you want is yours the moment you ask. You must have complete
and utter faith. If you had placed an order from a catalogue you
would relax/ know you are going to receive what you ordered, and
get on with your life. "See the things that you want as already yours. Know that they will come to you at need. Then
let them come. Don't fret and worry about them. Don't think about your lack of them. Think of
them as yours, as belonging to you, as already in
your possession." In the moment you ask, and believe and know you already have it
in the unseen, the entire Universe shifts to bring it into the seen. You must act, speak, and think, as though you are receiving it now. Why? The Universe is a mirror, and the law of attraction is mir-
roring back to you your dominant thoughts. So doesn't it make
sense that you have to see yourself as receiving it? If your thoughts
contain noticing you do not have it yet, you will continue to at-
tract not having it yet. You must believe you have it already. You
must believe you have received it. You have to emit the feeling
frequency of having received it, to bring those pictures back as
your life.

younger brother. Below: typical rampant tooth decay, modernized
Gaelic. Right: typical excellent teeth of primitive Gaelic. One of the sad stories of the Isle of Lewis has to do with the recent rapid progress of the white
plague. The younger generation of the modernized part of the Isle of Lewis is not showing the
same resistance to tuberculosis as their ancestors. Indeed a special hospital has been built at
Stornoway for the rapidly increasing number of tubercular patients, particularly for girls between
twenty and thirty years of age. The superintendent told me with deep concern of the rapidity with
which this menace is growing. Apparently very little consideration was being given to the change in
nutrition as a possible explanation for the failure of this generation to show the defense of previous
generations against pulmonary tuberculosis. In this connection much blame had been placed upon
the housing conditions, it being thought that the thatched-roof house with its smoke-laden air was
an important contributing factor, notwithstanding the fact that former generations had been free
from the disease. I was told that the incidence of tuberculosis was frequently the same in the
modern homes as it was in the thatched-roof homes. It was of special interest to observe the
mental attitude of the native with regard to the thatched-roof house. Again and again, we saw the
new house built beside the old one, and the people apparently living in the new one, but still
keeping the smoke smudging through the thatch of the old thatched-roof house. When I inquired
regarding this I was told by one of the clearthinking residents that this thatch collected something
from the smoke which when put in the soil doubled the growth of plants and yield of grain. He
showed me with keen interest two patches of grain which seemed to demonstrate the soundness of
his contention. I was particularly interested in studying the growing boys and girls at a place called Scalpay in
the Isle of Harris. This Island is very rocky and has only small patches of soil for available
pasturage. For nutrition, the children of this community were dependent very largely on oatmeal
porridge, oatcake and sea foods. An examination of the growing boys and girls disclosed the fact
that only one tooth out of every hundred examined had ever been attacked by tooth decay. The
general physical development of these children was excellent, as may be seen in the upper half of
Fig. 7. Note their broad faces.<|eot_id|><|begin_of_text|>
Q: Where did the author fail to obtain transportation to visit some of the islands?,
A: They failed to obtain transportation to visit the islands of Taransay and Scarpa on the west coast of the Isle of Harris.
Q: What is the diet of the people on Taransay and Scarpa, and how does it affect their physical health?,
A: The people on Taransay and Scarpa do not have dairy products in their diet, and instead consume oatmeal porridge, oatcake, and fish. Their diet is free of tooth decay and has contributed to their remarkable physical health.
Q: What is the difference in the physical appearance of the children on the Isle of Bardsey and those in the hamlet of Tarbert on the Isle of Harris?,
A: The children on the Isle of Bardsey have a high degree of tooth decay, while those in the hamlet of Tarbert on the Isle of Harris have a very low incidence of tooth decay.
Q: What is the difference in the physical appearance of the Eskimos who have never had contact with modern foods and those who have adopted a modern diet?,
A: The Eskimos who have never had contact with modern foods have broad faces and excellent dental arches, while those who have adopted a modern diet have narrow faces and deformed dental arches.
Q: What is the main issue with the Eskimos who have adopted a modern diet, according to the Director of the hospital at Brantford, Ontario?,
A: The Director of the hospital stated that the demand for beds at the hospital had changed significantly, with maternity-related issues becoming a major concern, as the young mothers are often brought to the hospital after being in labor for days.<|eot_id|><|begin_of_text|>They are entirely different from their grandmothers or even mothers in their capacity
and efficiency in the matter of reproduction. He stated that that morning he had had two cases in
which surgical interference was necessary in order to make birth possible. We had an opportunity here to study the effects of modernization. Indians are great lovers of
sports, particularly of their own national game which is lacrosse. We were able to witness one of
these contests with a team from another reservation. Indian families came in modern automobiles
dressed in modern clothes and purchased pop and candy and modern confections at typical
confection stands. These were highly modernized Indians. The group on this reservation, comprising approximately four thousand seven hundred Indians,
belong to the following tribes: Mohawks, Onondagas, Cayugas, Senecas, Oneidas and Delawares
making up the Six Nation or Iroquois group. A later addition to this group has been the Tuscaroras
from the Carolinas. While there were many mixed bloods, there were also a goodly number of full-
blooded Indian families, so that there was an opportunity to study comparatively the effects of
intermingling of the Indians with the whites. As in previous investigations, a special effort was made
to study the children from eight to sixteen years of age. Typical cases were selected from different
environments. For example, boys and girls selected from a training school called Mohawk
Institute, which was near the city of Brantford, represented one type of environment. There are
approximately one hundred and sixty students under training here, and we were informed that they
study half a day and work half a day. The boys are taught craftsmanship and farming, the girls,
home economics and garment making, and such practical training as would prepare them for later
home building. While most of the boys and girls come from that reservation, a few are accepted
from other reservations. It is of interest that 77 per cent of the children in this Institution had
suffered from earlier dental caries and that 17 per cent of all the teeth examined had already been
attacked by dental caries. But this had occurred apparently before their entrance to the Institute,
for we did not find a single case of active caries among those examined, and this is particularly
important in connection with their excellent nutrition. The Institute maintained a fine dairy herd and
provided fresh vegetables, whole wheat bread, and limited the sugar and white flour. The children of this group were compared with children of approximately the same age in a
public school of the reservation where it was found that 90 per cent had had dental caries, and that
at present in 70 per cent of the cases the caries was apparently active. It is important to note that
in this group 28.5 per cent of all the teeth examined had already been attacked by tooth decay. A study was made of patients at the reservation hospital where free service of all kinds is
provided. We found that 83 per cent had suffered from dental caries, and that 23.2 per cent of all
teeth had already been attacked by caries. We were particularly interested in the conditions obtaining in the homes, especially with the
mothers. A typical young mother had approximately half her teeth attacked by dental caries, as
had also her son, aged seven. The middle third of his face was underdeveloped and all of his upper
anterior teeth were decayed to the gum line. A study was made of an Indian reservation in New York State for comparison and for making
an estimate of typical modern American Indian life with regard to dental caries and nutrition. For
this study a band of 450 in the Tuscarora Reservation northeast of Niagara Falls was visited. Here
again we were fortunate to see the people in holiday mood since the study was made on
Decoration Day and events of the year had been scheduled, a lacrosse match and a baseball7/29/13 Nutrition and Physical Degeneration
gutenberg.net.au/ebooks02/0200251h.html#toc 57/250game, between the Indians' teams and white teams from adjacent towns. Several hundred Indians
were congregated to exhibit their best in wearing apparel, transportation equipment, and physical
prowess. There was evidence of a similarity of features in the older Indians who had not been
highly modernized, and a striking deficiency in the facial development of many of the moderns. A typical mother was studied at her home. She had four children. Her teeth were ravaged by
dental caries. She was strictly modern, for she had gold inlays in some of her teeth. The roots of
the missing teeth had not been extracted. Twenty of her teeth had active dental caries. Her little
girl, aged four, already had twelve very badly carious teeth. Another daughter aged eight had
sixteen carious teeth, and her son aged ten had six. The husband was in bed from an acute lung
involvement, doubtless tuberculosis. The children were eating their noon day meal when we
arrived, which consisted of a white bread and some stewed vegetables. Milk was available for
only the small baby in arms. In this Tuscarora group 83 per cent of those examined had dental
caries and 38 per cent of all teeth had already been attacked by dental caries. Every one studied in
this reservation was using white-flour products, none were using milk liberally, and only a few in
even limited amounts. I was told that in both reservations a few years ago the Indians grew wheat
and kept cows to


metrics, those with relatively little change, and an intermediate
group. Subsequently, the intermediate group was subdivided into
a high-low group and a low-high group. At the conclusion of the experiment, the groups selected by
the psychiatrists were compared with the groups selected by the
electro-metric investigator, who-it should be emphasized
knew nothing about the psychiatric diagnosis. Results of the
study showed clearly enough that the group consisting of those
markedly deviated from normal behaviour by psych ;atric ex
amination also showed a similar deviation in electro-metric ex
amination. The low group, likewise, paralleled each other perfectly. But
in the intermediate group, as might be expected. there was con
siderable vuiation in both the psychiatric reports and in the
electro-metric readings. This, of course, is very interesting and it

suggested that the electro-metric technique might be useful in
the neurological and psychiatric fields. This whole area has been extensively investigated by Dr. Leonard J. Ravitz, Jr. at one time on the staff of the Department
of Psychiatry at Yale, and followed by him through appointments
in a number of other institutions. His results are striking and
extraordinary. Perhaps the most remarkable result obtained in
our laboratory by Dr. Ravitz was when he found a significa nt
electro-metric correlate of hypnotism that was astonishing to
watch: a continuou sly-recording voltmeter showed evidence of
marhed changes in voltage gradient during the hypnotic process. This was not an event which might be related to the subjec
tivity of the operator, but could be recorded without argument
on the recording galvanometer. If anyone needed objective evid
ence of the results of hypnosis, one needed only to look at the
charts recorded under these conditions. Needless to say, this sug
gests an enormous range of studies which could be made parallel
ing those of Dr. Ravitz and, wherever possible, extending them. It becomes evident from Dr. Ravitz's examination that by
using electro-metric techniques on patients in psychiatric hos
pitals, patients-as a result of therapy, or changing circumstanc es
-could safely be discharged from the hospital when the voltage
gradient indicated a reasonable return to normal. Likewise,
electro-metric s could show clearly enough when certain patients
-no matter what the therapy was-could not be returned safely
to normal life outside of the institution. The value of this to the
instituti onalized psychotic should he apparent at once. Needless to say, a great deal more study is needed and much
more data must be collected. But Dr. Ravitz's striking results
are exciting enough to warrant the expenditure of the additional
time and effort to extend these studies further. Such studies are all the more desirable because -as mentioned
in Chapter I-L-field measurements can serve as signposts to
emotional instability outside institut ions and could therefore
serve as a valuahle tool to the Armed Forces and to industry. Practical applications apart, there are also great psychological
and philosophical implications in the discovery that the state of
the mind is reflected in the state of the field. Another remarkable
87 THE FIELD AS A SIGNPOS T
experiment by Dr. Ravitz, too, in which a n emotion of grief re
called under hypnotic regression caused a 14-millivolt rise for
twu-and-a-half minutes, suggests other possibilities. Already field
measurements can point to emo tional conditions; in the future
they may also be used as a purely objec tive, quantitative assess
ment of emotion. It cannot be too strongly emphasized that the electro-metric
approach to emotional diagnosis can be completely imperson al
and objective. The electro-metric investigator of psyc hiatric
patient s mentioned a short while ago did not know-and did not
need to know-the mental state of the patients. Yet his electro
mctric findings tallied closely with the psychiatric diagnoses. Since the electro-metric tests are simple and since any com
petent technician can quickly be trained to make them, in many
cases they can be used to save the time of busy psychiatrists by
sorting out all but the borderline cases. This can not only save
time but also a great deal of expense to the patient or taxpayer. 5
In this age, probably more people are subjected to emotional
stress-from environmental or other causes-than in any previ
ous one. Our bulging mental hospitals are sufficient evidence of
this; and, outside our mental hospitals, more and more people
seem to feel the need for psychiatric help. Modcrn psychosomatic medicine has demonstrated that, un
fortuna tely, the effects of emotional disturba nce are often not
confined to mental symptoms: many physical ills have a psycho
soma tic origin. Faced with this vast problem, we have to admit a distress ing
hck of knowledge not only of the true nature of mind or emotion
hut also of the mechan ism of the relationsh ip between mind and
body. L-ficld measurements, of course, cannot solve this prohlem. But, it is submitted, they can offer some new approaches to its
solu tion. They can give early warning of emotional instability
as we have seen- and one day, perhaps, will offer a reliable means

of measuring its intensity. This could be useful not only to psychiatrists and psycholo
gists but also to practitioners of internal medicine. Wi th the in
tense modern pressures on the medical profession, the average
doctor simply does not have the time to elicit the emotional pres
sures which-he may suspect-are the real cause of his patient's
physical problems, especially as many patients are reluctant to
disclose them. If, however, electro-metric tests could quickly re
veal the existence of these pressures-they cannot, of course, dis
close their nature-they could he of material help to the doctor in
devising the best treat ment for his patient. As we noted in Chapter 1, regular electro-m etric tests of
healthy men and women could help them to avoid or to handle
dangerous situations. They could also help less emotiona lly-stable
people to avoid-at their 'low' periods-situations which might
subject them to intolerable emotional stress. The relationsh ip between the state of the electro-dyna mic field
and abnormal physical conditions-of which the experiments de
scribed in the preceding pages afford abundant evidence-sug

All persons who have cancer die of starvation, unless they are first killed (usually

Establishment, that they are completely brainwashed and put in extreme fear. 48
Winning The Cancer War
2) Another parameter we often forget is that once a cancer victim or family member
has awakened from this imprisoned condition, they trust no one. All too often the
mindset of the cancer victim is to demand an immediate, noticeable, positive,
measurable response. When this is not forthcoming, they usually flip (and flounder) in
numerous forms of therapies that are claimed by their promoters as "The Cure." Most of the individuals who at last turn to my Metabolic Medicine's Cancer
Program are disillusioned, without hope, and have limited funding for recovery. Such
persons must have at least six months of life and follow the Metabolic Program most
carefully. Then, if they survive this six-month time period, there is a chance of
recovery. This recovery period is a long and tedious one, usually lasting at least 2
years. After that, they must take a form of metabolic support for the rest of their lives. 3) Most of these individuals expect and demand immediate results or they go on to
other therapies. This is not the way one recovers from cancer, because it is not the
way they developed cancer. Cancer requires the failure of the pancreas over the
course of two to eleven years to develop a Malignant Tumor Mass, which the medical
community in error calls "Cancer." Consequently, it requires at least the same length
of time to clean up a ravaged body. Only then does the process of rebuilding the
body take place, which usually takes an additional two to four years of hard work and
living right. Then, for the rest of one's life, one must keep a constant vigil to remain
free of malignant tumor masses. 4) One must realize that physicians are forbidden to treat cancer. Our common
enemy controlling the Medical Establishment has several methods and techniques to
prohibit a physician from treating cancer. Cancer is a "Process"... not an "Object"
Everyone produces malignant tumor cells on a daily basis. At the same time, the
pancreas produces adequate pancreatin to digest the food you eat, as well as
malignant tumor cells. It is when one's pancreas fails to produce the necessary
pancreatin to accomplish both of these tasks that a "Disease Process" takes place,
which we correctly call cancer. When this disease process occurs, you are not aware of it, as it is so subtle it must
progress for 2 to 4 years before you or your physician realizes you are in trouble. The
objective of my Program is to supply the body with adequate pancreatin to properly
digest food, stop the disease process, and rid the body of any and all malignant tumor
masses. This is the proper, normal, physiological method of taking care of the disease
process called CANCER. Upon starting my Program, two measurable things occur: 1) White blood cells
49

increase in number, which is considered by everyone to be a good sign. 2) Cancer
Markers become temporarily elevated, which often scares both the cancer victim and
his or her doctor. I  consider elevated Cancer Markers to be a good sign. Cancer
markers become temporarily elevated and malignant tumor masses continue to grow
temporarily
Pancreatin digests the Malignant Tumor Masses and Cells into liquid debris. This
debris is then gobbled up by your white blood cells and removed from your body by
way of bile from the liver, which goes into the colon and out, and urine from the
kidneys, which goes into the bladder and out. A small amount of this debris leaves
the body by way of skin perspiration as well as hair and nail growth. Upon starting Metabolic Medicine's Cancer Cure Program two measurable things
occur:
1. White blood cells increase in number, which is considered by everyone to be a
good sign. 2. Cancer Markers become temporarily elevated, which often scares both the Cancer
Victim and his or her doctor. Dr. Kelley considers elevated Cancer Markers to be
a good sign for the following reason:
The Malignant Tumor Mass debris consists, in part, of Cancer Marker components. Until now most of this Cancer Marker material has been held in the tissue
surrounding the Malignant Tumor Mass and usually increases when Malignant Tumor
Masses continue to develop. Upon starting Metabolic Medicine's Cancer Cure
Program the Cancer Markers are released into the bloodstream as the Masses are
digested. This causes a high volume of Cancer Marker material to appear in the
bloodstream temporarily and is the most misinterpreted part of the Metabolic
Medicine's Cancer Cure Program. The second most misinterpreted part is that often
the Malignant Tumor Masses continue to grow temporarily before one's normal
metabolic function can take over. Why You'll Feel Bad During Recovery
When the organs of detoxification become overloaded with debris, one feels as if
you were run over by a freight train. This lousy feeling is how you know that my
program is working. If you do not feel bad, one of three things is happening:
1. You are not taking enough pancreatin of the correct quality or quantity. 2. You have a very small amount of malignant tumor cells and/or masses. 50
Winning The Cancer War
3. You have enzyme inhibitors (blockers) obstructing pancreatic activity. I  expect all cancer victims taking pancreatin to feel toxic (sore, headaches, no
energy, nauseous, irritable, elevated temperature, flu-like symptoms, etc.). When this
occurs it indicates one's metabolic functions are working well. At this time, I
recommend that you stop taking the metabolic nutrients for five days to allow the
organs that are detoxing to remove this debris from your body. Many cancer victims have only a small malignant tumor mass and experience only
mild discomfort. Others have very large malignant tumor masses like Steve
McQueen's. If your physician can surgically de-bulk or remove most of these masses,
you often do not become toxic, and your recovery time speeds up. D O  N O T  THINK YOU ARE CANCER FREE! Reactions while on the Kelley Program
On occasion, we have found that an area of a malignant tumor mass becomes
tender and swells. This could be a very good sign. As one's body cleans up the
various debris and digested cells it is like hitting your finger with a hammer and
tenderness, pain and swelling occur. It can be very frightening to those who
experience a tingling or "electrical shock" sensation. This is usually caused by
pressure on nerves from malignant tumor growth. But often, it also occurs when the
swelling from clean-up is taking place within the body. Therefore, it could be a good
or bad sign, but one should consider the good possibility of clean-up activity. Once or twice after some months on our Metabolic Program, a family member has
called me and said "your program didn't work" Bob/Mary died. When questioned,
the individual had not been on the program for the last four to six months. Another
time a call came in saying the individual had died, only to find out she was killed
instantly in a head-on auto accident. Others have died from gunshot wounds while
dear hunting, others from heart attacks. Of course this is not a "Metabolic failure." Ascites, Cachexia, Fluid Cysts and Diarrhea
Ascites is a collection of fluid in the abdomen, chest, or legs. If the patient with
Ascites has been diagnosed with cancer, the physician calls hospice and writes
multiple refill prescriptions of strong narcotics. Cachexia in cancer usually implies terminal illness where the body cannibalizes
itself. The liver converts the body protein tissues into glucose which metabolically
supports the cancer (placenta) until death occurs. 51
Winning The Cancer War
Fluid Cysts is a fluid collection in epithelia sacks containing proteins, electrolytes,
minerals, etc. Diarrhea - in cancer. When standard treatment fails I  have found that the patient's
body uses diarrhea to remove years of toxic substances so that repair and rebuilding
can take place. Ascites Update
I  would like to bring to your attention some terminal conditions. Cindy is a cute
little ol' heifer from Florida and a flight attendant with a major airline. Unfortunately,
flying on an airplane on a regular basis has its hazards and she was exposed to all
sorts of toxins and germs, which fill the body to the brim with stressful toxins. Cindy's big problem was playing with two boys; her fiancee Ken, and St. Peter. When she was diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer in April 2001, she immediately
incorporated my program into her life, bypassing "traditional" methods of cancer
therapy such as chemotherapy and invasive surgery. About a year into my program, Cindy's doctor
