	much	NSAR	did	the	rats	get? Both	groups	of	rats	were	given	an
incredible	amount. Let	me	translate	the	“low”	dose	by	giving	you	a	little
scenario. Let’s	say	you	go	over	to	your	friend’s	house	to	eat	every	meal. This
friend	is	sick	of	you	and	wants	to	give	you	throat	cancer	by	exposing	you	to
NSAR. So	he	gives	you	the	equivalent	of	the	“low”	level	given	to	the	rats. You	go	to	his	house,	and	your	friend	offers	you	a	bologna	sandwich	that	has	a
whole	pound	of	bologna	on	it! You	eat	it. He	offers	you	another,	and	another,
and	another	…. You’ll	have	to	eat	270,000	bologna	sandwiches	before	yourfriend	lets	you	leave. 9,	12
	You	better	like	bologna,	because	your	friend	is	going
to	have	to	feed	you	this	way	every	day	for	over	thirty	years! If	he	does	this,
you	will	have	had	about	as	much	exposure	to	NSAR	(per	body	weight)	as	the
rats	in	the	“low”-dose	group. Because	higher	cancer	rates	were	also	seen	in	mice	as	well	as	rats,	using	a
variety	of	methods	of	exposure,	NSAR	is	“reasonably	anticipated”	to	be	a
human	carcinogen. Although	no	human	studies	were	used	to	make	this
evaluation,	it	is	likely	that	a	chemical	such	as	this,	which	consistently	causes
cancer	in	both	mice	and	rats,	can	cause	cancer	in	humans	at	some	level. It	is
impossible	to	know,	however,	what	this	level	of	exposure	might	be,	especially
because	the	animal	dosages	are	so	astronomical. Nonetheless,	animal
experiments	alone	are	considered	enough	to	conclude	that	NSAR	is
“reasonably	anticipated”	to	be	a	human	carcinogen. 9
So,	in	1970,	when	an	article	in	the	prestigious	journal
Nature
	concluded
that	nitrites	help	to	form	nitrosamines	in	the	body,	thereby	implying	that	they
help	to	cause	cancer,	people	became	alarmed. Here	was	the	official	line:
“Reduction	of	human	exposure	to	nitrites	and	certain	secondary	amines,
particularly	in	foods,	may	result	in	a	decrease	in	the	incidence	of	human
cancer.”
7
	Suddenly	nitrites	became	a	potential	killer. Because	we	humans	get
exposed	to	nitrites	through	consumption	of	processed	meat	such	as	hot	dogs
and	bacon,	some	products	came	under	fire. Hot	dogs	were	an	easy	target. Besides	containing	additives	like	nitrites,	hot	dogs	can	be	made	out	of
ground-up	lips,	snouts,	spleens,	tongues,	throats	and	other	“variety	meats.”
13
So	as	the	nitrite/nitrosamine	issue	heated	up,	hot	dogs	weren’t	looking	so	hot. Ralph	Nader	had	called	hot	dogs	“among	America’s	deadliest	missiles.”
14
Some	consumer	advocacy	groups	were	calling	for	a	nitrite	additive	ban,	and
government	officials	began	a	serious	review	of	nitrite’s	potential	health
problems. 3
The	issue	jolted	forward	again	in	1978,	when	a	study	at	the	Massachusetts
Institute	of	Technology	(MIT)	found	that	nitrite	increased	lymphatic	cancer	in
rats. The	study,	as	reported	in	a	1979	issue	of
Science
,
15
	found	that,	on
average,	rats	led	nitrite	got	lymphatic	cancer	10.2%	of	the	time,	while	animals
not	led	nitrite	got	cancer	only	5.4%	of	the	time. This	finding	was	enough	to
create	a	public	uproar. Fierce	debate	ensued	in	the	government,	industry	and
research	communities. When	the	dust	settled,	expert	panels	made
recommendations,	industry	cut	back	on	nitrite	usage	and	the	issue	fell	out	of
the	spotlight. To	summarize	the	story:	marginal	scientific	results	can	make	very	big
waves	in	the	public	when	it	comes	to	cancer-causing	chemicals. A	rise	incancer	incidence	from	5%	to	10%	in	rats	fed	large	quantities	of	nitrite	caused
an	explosive	controversy. Undoubtedly	millions	of	dollars	were	spent
following	the	MIT	study	to	investigate	and	discuss	the	findings. And	NSAR,
a	nitrosamine	possibly	formed	from	nitrite,	was	“reasonably	anticipated	to	be
a	human	carcinogen”	after	several	animal	experiments	where	exceptionally
high	levels	of	chemical	were	fed	to	animals	for	almost	half	their	lifespan.BACK	TO	PROTEIN
The	point	isn’t	that	nitrite	is	safe. It	is	the	mere	possibility,	however	unlikely
it	may	be,	that	it	could	cause	cancer	that	alarms	the	public. But	what	if
researchers	produced	considerably	more	impressive	scientific
results	that
were	far	more	substantial? What	if	there	was	a	chemical	that	experimentally
turned	on	cancer	in	100%	of	the	test	animals	and	its	relative	absence	limited
cancer	to	0%	of	the	animals? Furthermore,	what	if	this	chemical	were	capable
of	acting	in	this	way	at	routine	levels	of	intake	and	not	the	extraordinary
levels	used	in	the	NSAR	experiments? Finding	such	a	chemical	would	be	the
holy	grail	of	cancer	research. The	implications	for	human	health	would	be
enormous. One	would	assume	that	this	chemical	would	be	of	considerably
more	concern	than	nitrite	and	Alar,	and	even	more	significant	than	aflatoxin,	a
highly	ranked	carcinogen. This	is	exactly	what	I	saw	in	the	Indian	research	paper
16
	when	I	was	in	the
Philippines. The	chemical	was	protein,	fed	to	rats	at	levels	that	are	well	within
the	range	of	normal	consumption. Protein! These	results	were	more	than
startling. In	the	Indian	study,	when	all	the	rats	had	been	predisposed	to	get
liver	cancer	after	being	given	aflatoxin,	only	the	animals	fed	20%	protein	got
the	cancer	while	those	fed	5%	got	none. Scientists,	myself	included,	tend	to	be	a	skeptical	bunch,	especially	when
confronted	with	eye-popping	results. In	fact,	it	is	our	responsibility	as
researchers	to	question	and	explore	such	provocative	findings. We	might
suspect	that	this	finding	was	unique	to	rats	exposed	to	aflatoxin	and	for	no
other	species,	including	humans. Maybe	there	were	other	unknown	nutrients
that	were	affecting	the	data. Maybe	my	friend,	the	distinguished	MIT
professor,	was	right;	maybe	the	animal	identities	in	the	Indian	study	got
mixed	up. The	questions	begged	for	answers. To	further	study	this	question,	I	sought
and	received	the	two	National	Institutes	of	Health	(NIH)	research	grants	that	I
mentioned	earlier. One	was	for	a	human	study,	the	other	for	an	experimental
animal	study. I	did	not	“cry	wolf”	in	either	application	by	suggesting	that
protein	might	promote	cancer. I	had	everything	to	lose	and	nothing	to	gain	by
acting	like	a	heretic. Besides,	I	wasn’t	convinced	that	protein	actually	might
be	harmful. In	the	experimental	animal	study,	I	proposed	to	investigate	the
“effect	of
various	factors
	[my	italics]	on	aflatoxin	metabolism.”	The	human
study,	mostly


structors	that	have	the	programs. America	is	entrusting	the	important	task	of	educating	our	children	about
nutrition	and	health	to	the	dairy	industry. In	addition	to	ubiquitous	nutrition
lesson	plans	and	“educational”	kits,	the	industry	supplies	high	schools	with
videos,	posters	and	teaching	guides	regarding	nutrition;	it	runs	special
promotions	in	cafeterias	to	increase	milk	consumption	in
thousands	of
schools;	it	distributes	information	to	principals	at	national	conferences;	it	runs
back-to-school	promotions	with	over	20,000	schools;	and	it	runs	sports
promotions	targeted	toward	youth. Should	we	be	worried? In	a	word,	yes. If	you	are	curious	as	to	what	kind
of	“education”	is	being	taught	by	the	dairy	industry,	take	a	look	at	their	Web
site. 9
	When	I	visited	the	site	in	July	2003,	one	of	the	first	bits	of	information
to	greet	me	was,	“July	is	National	Ice	Cream	Month.”	Upon	clicking	for	more
information	on	National	Ice	Cream	Month,	I	read,	“If	you’re	wondering	if
you	can	have	your	ice	cream	and	good	nutrition	too,	the	answer	is	‘yes’!”
9
Great. So	much	for	combating	childhood	obesity	and	diabetes! The	Web	site	is	divided	up	into	three	sections,	one	for	educators,	one	for
parents	and	one	for	food	service	professionals. When	I	looked	at	the	Web	site
in	July	2003	(the	Web	site	regularly	changes	its	content),	in	the	educator
portion	of	the	site,	teachers	could	download	lesson	plans	to	teach	nutrition	to
their	classrooms. Lesson	plans	included	making	hand	puppets	of	cows	and
dairy	foods	and	doing	a	finger	play. Once	the	puppets	are	made,	the	teacher
should	“[t]ell	the	students	they’re	going	to	meet	five	special	friends,	and	these
friends	want	boys	and	girls	to	grow	up	to	be	strong	and	healthy.”
9
	Another
lesson	was	“Dairy	Treat	Day,”	where	each	child	gets	to	taste	cheese,	pudding,
yogurt,	cottage	cheese	and	ice	cream. 9
	Or	teachers	could	lead	their	classes	in
making	“Moo	Masks.”
9
	For	the	more	advanced	fourth	grader,	teachers	could
do	a	lesson	plan	from	Pyramid	Explorations	in	which	students	explore	the
five	food	groups,	and	their	health	benefits,	as	follows
9
:
Milk	Group	(Build	strong	bones	and	teeth.) Meat	Group	(Build	strong	muscles.) Vegetable	Group	(Help	you	see	in	the	dark.) Fruit	Group	(Help	heal	cuts	and	bruises.) Grain	Group	(Give	us	energy.) Based	on	the	evidence	presented	in	the	previous	chapters,	you	know	that	if
this	is	what	our	children	are	learning	about	nutrition	and	health	then	we	are	in
for	a	painful	journey,	courtesy	of	Dairy	Management,	Inc.	Obviously	neitherkids	nor	their	parents	are	learning	about	how	milk	has	been	linked	to	Type	1
diabetes,	prostate	cancer,	osteoporosis,	multiple	sclerosis	or	other
autoimmune	diseases,	and	how	casein,	the	main	protein	in	dairy	foods,	has
been	shown	to	experimentally	promote	cancer	and	increase	blood	cholesterol
and	atherosclerotic	plaque. In	2002,	this	marketing	Web	site	delivered
over	70,000	lesson	plans
	to
educators. 8
	The	dairy	industry	truly	is	teaching	its	version	of	nutrition	to	the
next	generation	of	Americans. The	industry	has	been	doing	this	for	decades,	and	it	has	been	successful. I
have	encountered	many	people	who,	when	they	hear	about	the	potential
adverse	effects	of	dairy	foods,	immediately	say,	“Milk	can’t	be	bad.”	Usually
these	people	don’t	have	any	evidence	to	support	their	position;	they	just	have
a	feeling	that	milk	is	good. They’ve	always	known	it	to	be	that	way,	and	they
like	it	that	way. You	can	trace	some	of	their	opinions	back	to	their	school
days,	when	they	learned	that	there	are	seven	continents,	two	plus	two	equals
four,	and	milk	is	healthy. If	you	think	about	it	this	way,	you	will	understand
why	the	dairy	industry	has	had	such	exceptional	influence	in	this	country	by
using	education	for	its	marketing	purposes. If	this	marketing	program	weren’t	such	a	widespread	threat	to	our
children’s	health,	it	would	be	downright	laughable	that	an	industry	group
would	try	to	peddle	its	food	product	under	such	a	thinly-veiled	“education”
plan. Don’t	people	wonder	what’s	going	on	when	almost	every	single
children’s	book	advertised	in	the	“Nutrition	Bookshelf”	portion	of	this	Web
site	revolved	around	either	milk,	cheese	or	ice	cream,	with	such	titles	as
Ice
Cream:	Great	Moments	in	Ice	Cream	History
? 9
	After	all,	during	July	2003
there	were	no	vegetable	books	anywhere	to	be	found	on	this	“Nutrition
Bookshelf”! Aren’t	they	healthy? At	least	when	the	dairy	industry	describes	all	of	these	school-related
activities	in	the	official	reports	to	Congress	and	in	industry	press	releases,	it
rightly	refers	to	them	as	“marketing”	activities.CONJUGATED	LINOLEIC	ACID
The	dairy	industry	doesn’t	stop	with	kids. For	adults,	the	industry	puts	a
heavy	emphasis	on	“science”	and	the	communication	of	research	results	that
might	be	construed	as	showing	health	benefits	from	eating	dairy	foods. The
dairy	industry	spends	$4	to	$5	million	a	year	to	fund	research	towards	the
goal	of	finding	something	healthy	to	talk	about. 7,	10
	In	addition,	the	dairy
industry	promoters	employ	a	Medical	Advisory	Board	made	up	of	doctors,
academics	and	other	health	professionals. These	scientists	are	the	ones	who
appear	as	medical	professionals	in	the	media,	providing	science-based
statements	supporting	the	health	benefits	of	milk. The	Airport	Club	was	a	good	example	of	industry	efforts	to	maintain
favorable	product	image	and	“confidence.”	In	addition	to	keeping	an	eye	on
potentially	damaging	projects,	the	Club	was	trying	to	generate	research	that
might	show	that	cancer	could	be	prevented	by	drinking	cow’s	milk. What	a
coup	that	would	be! At	that	time,	the	industry	was	getting	quite	edgy	about
the	growing	evidence	showing	that	the	consumption	of	animal-based	foods	is
associated	with	cancer	and	related	ailments. Their	hook	for	this	research	was	an	unusual	group	of	fatty	acids	produced
by	bacteria	in	the	cow’s	rumen	(the	biggest	of	the	four	stomachs). These	fatty
acids	were	collectively	called	conjugated	linoleic	acid	(CLA),	which	is
produced	from	the	linoleic	acid	commonly	found	in	corn	that	the	cow	eats. From	the	cow’s	rumen,	CLA	is	then	absorbed	and	gets	stored	in	the	meat	and
milk	of	the	animal,	eventually	to	be	consumed	by	humans. The	big	payday	for	The	Airport	Club	was	when	initial	tests	on
experimental	mice


 which may be used for human consumption are:
marigolds, lavetera flowers, hollyhock flowers, pansies,
nasturtium flowers, oxalis flower panicles, dandelion flowers,
chrysanthemums, gillyflowers, altheas, rose of China flowers, forget-me-nots, water lilies, double zinnias, sweet pea
flowers, alfalfa flowers, verbenas, sweet alyssum, and the
flowers of certain bean plants such as the scarlet runner,
hyacinth bean, and Chinese wistaria. These flowers may be
chopped up or used whole in salads, or they may be eaten
alone just as you would eat any ordinary vegetable. H
ERBAL  TEAS
   In addition to the use of cold beverages, such as milk and
fruit and vegetable juices, there are many beverages which
are used in their warm state, and these may also contribute to
healthful nutrition. Of the one hundred and more beverages of
this type which are available for human use, civilized man
selected only a few, and each of these contain caffeine, tannic acid, or other poisons. The great number of herbal teas and
other healthful beverages have been almost completely
ignored. Some of these beverages supply valuable nutrients,
and a number are considered more delicious than the
conventional tea and coffee used in civilization. Rose hips, for instance, contain upwards of thirty times as much vitamin
C as do oranges, and rose hip tea is a valuable source of this
vitamin. Peppermint tea is perhaps the most popular, in terms of flavor, of all herb teas, with strawberry leaf, papaya leaf,
alfalfa, fenugreek, sassafras, nettle, shave grass, squaw tea,
juniper berry, and many other kinds also offering pleasing
flavors. SEASONINGS
   The fact that salt and most of our common spices have been
proven to be quite irritating to the human body does not mean
that all forms of seasoning are objectionable in this respect. Here, as with so many other foods, we note that civilized man
has confined his use of seasonings chiefly to those which are
known for their irritating qualities. There has been a peculiar
avoidance of a large number of herb seasonings which are not
only healthful when used in moderate amounts, but also   possess delightful flavors even surpassing those of the
harmful group of condiments. The dried herbs which are suitable in good nutrition include
bay leaf, garlic, dill, onion, chives, parsley, sage, mint, sorrel,
sassafras, thyme, caraway, fennel, basil, and chervil. Some of
these may be home-grown in any window flower pot, and then dried in the sun. They may also be purchased from
commercial sources. The herbs can be used to add flavor to
uncooked soups, meats, salads, and other foods. Dehydrated
vegetable flakes, made from a single vegetable species, or
from a variety of vegetables, may be employed for the same
purpose. As a substitute for salt, dehydrated vegetable broth powder
is best used. This food is actually rich in mineral nutrients,
and it has no irritating qualities whatsoever. The pure
vegetable broth powder is simply a combination of
dehydrated vegetables, ground into powder form. It may
serve much the same purpose as dried herbs and dehydrated vegetable flakes, being used in raw meats, soups, etc. It may
also be sprinkled on other foods, in much the same manner
that ordinary salt would be used, and added to salad dressing
ingredients to impart extra flavor. The use of even the best seasonings can be overdone. With
the use of devitalized foods, as have lost most of their flavor
in refining, processing, and cooking, an extensive use of seasonings is to be expected in order to replace the lost
flavor. However, raw foods possess distinctive flavors of
their own, and nothing is to be gained if these are to be
completely disguised by seasonings. Let us then use natural
seasonings in moderation, to add a little extra tang to certain foods, but not to completely replace the original flavor of
foods. V
EGETABLE OILS
   The use of various kinds of oil extracted from plant
substances is important in improving the human dietary. A
number of laboratory and clinical experiments conducted over a period of many years have shown that most unrefined
vegetable oils contain substances which help to reduce the
cholesterol content of the blood. When these substances are
not present, the excess of plasma cholesterol is unstable and
not properly emulsified. The cholesterol thus tends to collect along the walls of the arteries, producing hardening of the
arteries and coronary heart di sease. Lecithin and certain
unsaturated fatt
y acids, found in unrefined ve getable oils, tend to act as an emulsifying agent for cholesterol and
prevent it from caking along the walls of the arteries. Keston
and Silbowitz, in experiments with rabbits, showed that the
lecithin of soy bean oil kept cholesterol from collecting in the blood and prevented hardening of the arteries. Drs. Pottenger
and Krohn found that the administration of soy bean lecithin
to patients on high-cholesterol diets produced a 79 per cent
reduction in blood cholesterol. Other experiments have
shown that the unsaturated fatty acids in sunflower seed oil, safflower seed oil, and certain other vegetable oils also
tended to cause a dramatic reduction of the blood cholesterol level. Six years of experiments with 300 men, women, and
children have shown that unrefined wheat germ oil is of
exceptional value in increasing physical endurance and
improving heart response. Drs. Cureton and Pohndorf, studying middle-aged men of a university faculty, observed
improved endurance, better response in electrocardiograph,
blood pressure, and pulse 'wave tests, together with quicker
speed reactions to light and sound, when a supplement of
unrefined wheat germ oil was administered each day. Dr. Counsilman, of Cortland State Teachers College in New
York, reported experiments in which track athletes were
given a teaspoon of wheat germ oil each day, achieving
thereby marked improvements in endurance and the capacity
of the heart to do work. Among boys seven to fourteen years old, marked improvements in the endurance have been
registered when wheat germ oil was administered. Evidence
has also been recorded showing that wheat germ oil is valuable in treating certain types of muscular dystrophy and
in improving the efficiency of reproduction. Similar
advantages have been reported upon the administration of
wheat germ oil to laboratory animals. In the face of all such
evidence, there need be no doubt but what wheat germ oil, as well as other forms of unrefined vegetable oil, deserve an
important place in the uncooked diet. The ordinary salad oils and cooking oils which are used in
conventional cookery are of little or no value in supplying the
vitamin E and other vital nutrients  which we expect to receive
from the best natural vegetable oils. It is important to buy
vegetable oils in their crude non-filtered state in order to achieve the fullest benefit. Such oils are darker in color than
refined oils, and they still possess some odor and flavor. Most
good vegetable oils are cold-pressed, although solvent-
extracted oils are also acceptable if they are prepared at low
temperatures. Among the vegetable oils which may be used in good nutrition are: olive oil, soy bean oil, corn oil,
sunflower seed oil
, wheat germ oil, rice bran oil, sesame seed oil, peanut oil, and safflower seed oil. These oils may be used
in salad dressing recipes, and for all other culinary purposes
in which oils are necessary. They may also be taken alone for
medicinal purposes whenever a specific need for extra
vitamin E, lecithin, unsaturated fatty acids, etc., exists. GRAIN PRODUCTS
   All raw grains are usually considered non-edible, but this
belief is not warranted by facts. Fresh wheat is soft and succulent prior to ripening and may be eaten in its natural state. After ripening, the softer varieties may still be used in
the diet. When chewed and mixed with saliva, the grains
gradually soften into a succulent mass. Certain types of raw grains may be soaked overnight in water or milk and served
in the same liquid with honey or fruits as a cereal the next
morning. One can also use raw whole grain flour wheat germ,
and rice bran in the diet. These may be sprinkled on salads
and mixed with milk and other ingredients and made into unleavened bread dough, which may be pressed into flat
pieces and kept under refrigerati on. No baking is required for
grain products of this type, and uncooked bread may form an
important part of the diet. Another excellent way of utilizing raw grains is to permit
them to sprout. When grains sprout, many chemical changes take place, enhancing the original value of the seed. The starch is converted into sugar, thereby rendering the food
more easily digestible. More amino acids are developed, and
there is a marked increase in values for niacin, biotin,
pantothenic acid, inositol, folic acid, and pyridoxine. Vitamin
A is also manufactured during the sprouting process, as is vitamin C, the latter often


 (a) turn head from side to side 5 or 6 times; (b) lift head slightly and rotate in
circles 3 or 4 times. 6. Lift legs to vertical position, rotate outward in circles 8 or 10times. Increase to 25 times after a week or two of exerci sing. 7. Bring legs straight up to a vertical position and lower them to the board slowly. Repeat 3 or 4 times. 8. Bicycle  legs in air 15to 25 times. Relax and rest, letting the blood circulate in the head for 10 minutes. ELEVEN -DAY ELIMINATION REGIME
There are many eliminative regimes, and they all accomplish about the same results, through the fact that the body is g iven less
food, simpler foods and simpler combinations, more watery foods - so a greater transition can take place in the cells of the body. This Eleven -Day Elimination Regime can be used by most persons in health, and for those who want to overcome the av erage
physical disorder. Those who are weak or feeble, however, should not follow the plan the full eleven days without supervision. Those with tuberculosis should have both supervision and assistance. Variation, as to the length of time and the manner in  which the foods are to be taken, may be adjusted to suit the history of the
patient. Examples: fruits, vegetables and broths can be taken for 1 day; or 1 day of just fruit; or 1, 2 or 3 days of vegetab les only. Vegetables, taken in the form of broths, gen tly steamed vegetables and salads are a safer routine for the average beg inner than
citrus fruits. A hot bath should be taken every night during this diet regime. Enemas may be used the first four or five days, then
discontinued for natural movements. Not hing but water and fruit juices, preferably grapefruit, should be taken into the body for the
first three days. Drink one glass of juice every four hours of the day. The next two days fruit only - such as grapes, melons,
tomatoes, pears, peaches, plums; dr ied fruit such as prunes, figs, peaches, soaked overnight or baked apple. In the six following days, breakfast should consist of citrus fruits. Between breakfast and lunch, any other kind of fruit. F or lunch,
have a salad of three to six vegetables and tw o cups of vital broth. When hungry between meals, fruit or fruit juices may be taken. Dinner should consist of two or three steamed vegetables and two cups of vital broth. Fruit juices can be taken before retiri ng, if
wanted. Rigid adherence to the diet is  an absolute necessity for anyone attempting to regain good health. Eat plenty, but not to
satiety. VITAL BROTH RECIPE:
2 C. carrot tops; 1 clove garlic; 2 C. potato peelings (1/2" thick); 2 C. beet tops; 2 C. celery tops; 3 C. celery stalk; 2 q t distille d
water; 1/2 tsp Savita or Vegex. Add a carrot and onion to flavor, if desired (grate or chop). Ingredients should be finely chopped. Bring to a boil, slowly: simmer approximately 20 minutes. Use only the broth after straining. When finished with the above  regime return to Dr. Jensen’s Daily Food Regime. The above elimination regime should be followed whenever a person changes from the old ways of living and begins to live righ t.
As a rule, it is wise to follow the elimination regime in any and all of the f ollowing cases: as a general cleanser two or three times a
year; at the time of crisis; when reduction of weight is desired; when hips get too large; when joints get stiff; when the sk in breaks
out; when constipation is present. THE MASTER CHLOROPHYLL ELI MINATION DIET
This is a diet of just plain water, preferably using distil led water, and using one teaspoon of a liquid chlorophyll to one glass of
water every three hours. You can also use vegetable juice, but this is a diet where we are adding iron, gath ering all the oxygen we
can while we are breathing, and burning up the toxic waste by using the iron as found in liquid chlorophyll. Liquid chlorophy ll is
usually made as an extract from alfalfa leaves, which is one of the highest things we have in potassi um iron, which will attract the
oxygen to the body. Doing this for three or four days is a wonderful pre -elimination diet to fasting or to any other type of dieting. I
consider this to be the master -cleansing diet for all catarrhal conditions. In the prese nce of greens, we find that catarrh is
eliminated best from the body. WATERMELON FLUSH
There are times during the watermelon season that we can use watermelon as a good elimination diet. Going on watermelon for
three, four or five days is a wonderful kidn ey eliminant, a diuretic. We find that it helps to take out a lot of the debris in the colon
and the extra water picks up toxic materials and carries them off. ONE DAY A WEEK FAST
On a one day a week fast regime you can be on a juice diet or a fruit on th e one day – and rest. Many people like to go on a fast
one day a week. This is perfectly all right if you will rest that day - but you MUST rest! You cannot expect to get the good yielded
by a rest without food by using all of your energy and leaving yours elf depleted by working on a day that you do not eat. FASTING
Fasting is the quickest way of bringing about elimination in the body and the fastest way of getting toxic materials out of t he body. This is done through complete rest - physical, psychologica l and psychic. As we let the body rest, it develops tone and vitality,
more than is possible by any other procedure. I believe rest is a cure because it gives us the vitality we need to throw off toxic
material and to eliminate the debris that has been acc umulated over a period of years. We can literally withdraw toxic
accumulations through a fast. We find that there are many ways to fast. I think the better way is to take a half glass of wat er every
hour and a half throughout the day. If it is a hot day, y ou may need more water and it is all right since you perspire more. Be sure
not to take big gulps of water at one time. The water should be cool but not ice cold. Take daily enemas the first few days, then
reduce this to every other day or every third or f ourth day, depending upon the length of time you fast. While you are fasting you
should rest as much as possible. If you hike or walk, do it on level ground. Do nothing to the point of tiring. This is impor tant in
fasting. JUICE FASTING
I don’t think it’s  any particular juice that will cure anything - but I believe the rest you give your body allows it the opportunity to
reverse the disease and recover your health. It’s the rest from food and the simple diet that does the trick. The lack of too  many
food m ixtures and less demand made on our digestive and eliminative systems help us to overcome disease. The carrot juice diet
involves taking one glass of carrot juice every three hours or more if you like. You can do this for ten days, twenty days or  even
longer. I had one man on carrot juice for a whole year. That is a long time! This particular man lived in Monrovia and had an
extreme condition of the bowel but through the carrot juice diet, he got rid of it. Dr. Kirschner, who wrote the book on juic e
therapy, came here to talk over this man’s case because he found out how I had kept him on juices for so long a time. The man
passed off mucus and catarrh continually from that bowel. It was almost unbelievable what was eliminated - being even black at
times. This was simply accumulated toxic material that was necessary for him to get rid of. BREAKING A FAST
In breaking a fast, if you go five, six or seven days on water, then go one or two days on juices, either vegetable or fruit. Take one
8-oz glass ever y three hours. You have eliminated the enemas one or two days I beforehand and you are starting in to work for
good bowel movements now. I After the two days of juices, start the first thing in the morning on the third day with sliced o r
peeled oranges. Th e bulk of an orange is probably one of the finest things for the bowel. If you do not want to use oranges, you can
use a finely shredded carrot that has been steamed or wilted for one minute. This acts to help clean out the toxic materials. You can
do this  for breakfast and lunch. Then for the evening meal, you can start out with a small salad. Have a glass of juice at 10:00 am and again at 3:00 pm. The next day you can have fresh fruit for breakfast along with juice. Have juice at 10:00 am. For lunch, you can have a small salad and juice. Have another glass of juice at 3:00 pm. At the evening meal you can have a salad, one cooked


the release of the thief, and the judge who willingly releases Barabbas,
and sentences Jesus to fill his place. He was crucified on Golgotha, the
place of the skull, the seat of the imagination. To experience the Passover or passage from the old to the new concept of
self, you must release Barabbas, your present concept of self, which robs
you of being that which you could be, and you must assume the new con -
cept which you desire to express. The best way to do this is to concentrate your attention upon the idea of
identifying yourself with your ideal. Assume you are already that which
you seek and your assumption, though false, if sustained, will harden into
fact. You will know when you have succeeded in releasing Barabbas, your old
concept of self, and when you have successfully crucified Jesus, or fixed
the new concept of self, by simply looking MENTALLY at the people you
know. If you see them as you formerly saw them, you have not changed
your concept of self, for all changes of concepts of self result in a changed
relationship to your world. We always seem to others the embodiment of the ideal we inspire. There -
fore, in meditation, we must imagine that others see us as they would see
us were we what we desire to be. You can release Barabbas and crucify and resurrect Jesus if you will first
define your ideal. Then relax in a comfortable arm chair, induce a state of
consciousness akin to sleep and experience in imagination what you
would experience in reality were you already that which you desire to be. By this simple method of experiencing in imagination what you would ex -
perience in the flesh were you the embodiment of the ideal you serve, you
More Free Books Law of Attraction Havenrelease Barabbas who robbed you of your greatness, and you crucify and
resurrect your savior, or the ideal you desire to express. Now let us turn to the story of Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane. Bear
in mind that a garden is a properly prepared plot of ground, it is not a
wasteland. You are preparing this ground called Gethsemane by coming
here and studying and doing something about your mind. Spend some
time daily in preparing you mind by reading good literature, listening to
good music and entering into conversations that ennoble. We are told in the Epistles, “Whatsoever things are true, whatsoever
things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are
pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report;
if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. ”
(Phil 4:8). Continuing with our story, as told in the 18th chapter of John, Jesus is in
the garden and suddenly a crowd begins to seek him. He is standing there
in the dark and he says, “Whom seek ye. ”
The spokesman called Judas answers and says, “We seek Jesus of
Nazareth. ”
A voice answers, “I am He. ”
At this instant they all fall to the ground, thousands of them tumbled. That in itself should stop you right there and let you know it could not be
a physical drama, because no one could be so bold in his claim that he is
the one sought, that he could cause thousands who seek him to fall to the
ground. But the story tells us they all fell to the ground. Then when they regained
their composure they asked the same question. “Jesus answered, I have told you that I am He: if therefore ye seek me,
let these go their way. ” (John 18:8). “Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly. ” (John 13:27). Judas, who has to do it quickly, goes out and commits suicide. Now to the drama. You are in your garden of Gethsemane or prepared
mind if you can, while you are in a state akin to sleep, control your atten -
tion and not let it wander away from its purpose. If you can do that you
are definitely in the garden. Very few people can sit quietly and not enter a reverie or a state of un -
More Free Books Law of Attraction Havencontrolled thinking. When you can restrict the mental action and remain faithful to your
watch, not permitting your attention to wander all over the place, but hold
it without effort within a limited field of presentation to the state you are
contemplating, then you are definitely this disciplined presence in the gar -
den of Gethsemane. The suicide of Judas is nothing more than changing your concept of your -
self. When you know what you want to be you have found your Jesus or
savior. When you assume that you are what you want to be you have died
to your former concept of self (Judas committed suicide) and are not liv -
ing as Jesus. You can become at will detached from the world round about
you, and attached to that which you want to embody within your world. Now that you have found me, now that you have found that which would
save you from what you are, let go of that which you are and all that it
represents in the world. Become completely detached from it. In other
words, go out and commit suicide. You completely die to what you formerly expressed in this world, and you
now completely live to that which no one saw as true of you before. You
are as though you had died by your own hand, as though you had com -
mitted suicide. You took your own life by becoming detached in conscious -
ness from what you formerly kept alive, and you begin to live to that
which you have discovered in your garden. You have found your savior. It is not men falling, not a man betraying another, but you detaching your
attention, and refocusing your attention in an entirely new direction. From
this moment on you walk as though you were that which you formerly
wanted to be. Remaining faithful to your new concept of yourself you die
or commit suicide. No one took your life, you laid it down yourself. You must be able to see the relation of this to the death of Moses, where
he so completely died that no one could find where he was buried. You
must see the relationship of the death of Judas. He is not a man who be -
trayed a man called Jesus. The word Judas is praise; it is Judah, to praise; to give thanks, to explode
with joy. You do not explode with joy unless you are identified with the
ideal you seek and want to embody in this world. When you become iden -
tified with the state you contemplate you cannot suppress your joy. It ris -
es like the fragrant odor described as Jericho in the Old Testament. I am trying to show you that the ancients told the same story in all the
stories of the Bible. All that they are trying to tell us is how to become
that which we want to be. And they imply in every story that we do not
More Free Books Law of Attraction Havenneed the assistance of another. You do not need another to become now
what you really want to be. *****
Now we turn to a strange story in the Old Testament; one that very few
priests and rabbis will be bold enough to mention from their pulpits. Here
is one who is going to receive the promise as you now receive it. His
name is Jesus, only the ancients called him Joshua. Jehoshua Ben Nun, or
savior, son of the fish, the Savior of the great deep. Nun means fish, and
fish is the element of the deep, the profound ocean. Jehoshua means Je -
hovah saves, and Ben means the offspring or son of. So he was called the
one who brought the fish age. This story is in the 6th book of the Bible, the book of Joshua. A promise is
made to Joshua as it is made to Jesus in the Anglicized form in the
gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. In the gospel of John, Jesus says, “All things whatsoever thou hast given
me are of thee. ” (John 17:7). “And all mine are thine, and thine are
mine. ” (John 17:10). In the Old Testament in the book of Joshua it is said in these words: “Ev -
ery place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given
unto you. ” (Joshua 1:3). It does not matter where it is; analyze the promise and see if you can ac -
cept it literally. It is not physically true but it is psychologically true. Wherever you can stand in this world mentally that you can realize. Joshua is haunted by this promise that wherever he can place his foot
(the foot is understanding), wherever the sole of his foot shall tread, that
will be given unto him. He wants the most desirable state in the world,
the fragrant city, the delightful state called Jericho. He finds himself barred by the impassable walls of Jericho. He is on the
outside, as you are now on the outside. You are functioning three-dimen -
sionally and you cannot seem to reach the fourth-dimensional world
where your present desire is already a concrete objective reality. You can -
not seem to reach it because your senses bar you from it. Reason tells
you it is impossible, all things rounds about you tell you it is not true. Now you employ the services of a harlot and a


 When you do that, the law of attraction will powerfully
move all circumstances, people, and events, for you to receive. 50 The Secret
When you book a vacation, order a brand new car, or buy a house,
you know those things are yours. You wouldn't go and book an-
other vacation for the same time, or purchase another car or house. If you won a lottery or received a large inheritance, even before
you physically had the money, you know it is yours. That is the
feeling of believing it is yours. That is the feeling of believing you
have it already. That is the feeling of believing you have received. Claim the things you want by feeling and believing they are yours. When you do that, the law of attraction will powerfully move all

truly want, because toe can't see how it's going to manifest. BOB PROCTOR
If you do just a little research, it is going to become evident
to you that anyone that ever accomplished anything, did not
know how they were going to do it. They only knew they were
going to do it. DR. JOE VlTALE
You don't need to know how it's going to come about You
don't need to know how the Universe will rearrange itself
How it will happen, how the Universe will bring it to you, is not
your concern or job. Allow the Universe to do it for you. When
you are trying to work out how it will happen, you are emitting a
frequency that contains a lack of faith—that you don't believe you
have it already. You think you have to do it and you do not believe
the Universe will do it for you. The how is not your part in the

You don't know how, it will be shown to you. You will attract
the way. LISA NICHOLS
Most of the time, when we don't see the things that we've
requested, we get frustrated. We get disappointed. And we
begin to become doubtful. The doubt brings about a feeling of
disappointment. Take that doubt and shift it. Recognize that
feeling and replace it with a feeling of unwavering faith. "I
know that it's on its way." LISA NICHOLS
Step three, and the final step in the process, is to receive. Begin to feel wonderful about it. Feel the way you Will feel

that, you don't necessarily have enough power to manifest
what you want in your life. You have to feel it. Ask once, believe you have received, and all you have to do to
receive is feel good. When you are feeling good, you are on the
frequency of receiving. You are on the frequency of all good things
coming to you, and you will receive what you have asked for. You
wouldn't ask for anything unless it was going to make you feel
good in the receiving of it, would you? So get yourself on the feel-
good frequency, and you will receive. A fast way to get yourself on that frequency is to say, "I am receiv-
ing now. I am receiving all the good in my life, now, I am receiving
[fill in your desire] now." And feel it. Feel it as though you have
received. A dear friend of mine, Marcy, is one of the greatest manifestors I
have seen, and she feels everything. She feels what it would feel like
to have what she is asking for. She feels everything into existence. She doesn't get caught up in how, when, or where, she Just feels it
and it then manifests. So feel good now. BOB PROCTOR

 provide a liberal supply of natural cereal and milk for their families, but of late
this practice had been discontinued. They were now buying their wheat in the form of white flour
and their vegetables largely put up in cans. In both reservations they were using commercial
vegetable fats, jams and marmalades, sweetened goods, syrups and confections very liberally. It is
remarkable how early the child life adopts modern civilization's confections. In order to provide a further cross section of the modernized Indians of North America, I made
a study in a reservation on Winnipeg Lake in Manitoba. This reservation lies north and east of
Winnipeg and is quite highly modernized. These people were reached with much difficulty because of the natural protection provided by
the location of their reservation at the mouth of Brokenhead River. They had been provided with
fertile lands and taught modern methods of farming. Their proximity to a great body of water fairly
well-stocked with fish gave them an opportunity to secure fish, if they were disposed to make the
effort to do so, as their ancestors had done through previous centuries. Their homes were found to
be in a dilapidated condition, and while their lands were stocked with cattle and horses, such as
we found were in poor condition, and limited in number. The people had been provided with a
government school and a government agent to assist in providing for their needs and in giving
material assistance when needed. They were within fairly easy distance of hospitals, and had
available modern medical service. Notwithstanding all these advantages, their physical condition
was very poor. Dental caries was so wide-spread that 39.1 per cent of all teeth studied were
found to be affected. They were living almost entirely on modern foods, imported white flours,
jams, canned vegetables and liberal quantities of sugar. Over 90 per cent of the individuals had
rampant dental caries. Their physical condition and their supply of necessities was very much lower
than was that of either of the two preceding groups. Distress was evident even in late summer. The Indians so far reported were living inland with access to inland foods only. The Pacific
Coast Indians were examined to determine the effect of sea foods. To find evidence relating to the
physical, and particularly to the dental condition of the Indians who inhabited the Pacific slope a
thousand or more years ago, a visit was made to the Vancouver Museum at Vancouver which
fortunately possesses splendidly preserved specimens of prehistoric periods. Some of these skulls
were uncovered while cutting through a hill for a street extension in the city of Vancouver. Above
was a virgin forest of large size green firs and underneath them in the soil there were preserved
fallen trunks of other large trees. Several feet below these, burials were uncovered containing
skeletons of an early Indian race. This collection contains also skulls from several places and from
prehistoric periods. The teeth are all splendidly formed and free from dental caries. The arches are
very symmetrical and the teeth in normal and regular position. It was important to study the conditions of their successors living in the same general
community. Accordingly, we examined the teeth and general physical condition of the Indians in a
reservation in North Vancouver, so situated that they have the modern conveniences and modern7/29/13 Nutrition and Physical Degeneration
gutenberg.net.au/ebooks02/0200251h.html#toc 58/250foods. In this group of children between eight and fifteen years of age, 36.9 per cent of all the teeth
examined had already been attacked by dental caries. No people were found in this group who
were living largely on native foods. Vancouver Island with its salubrious climate is one of the most favored places of residence on
the Pacific Coast. It was of particular interest to study the Indians near Victoria on this island in the
Craigflower Indian Reservation. Indeed, the city of Victoria has been partly built on the original
Craigflower Indian Reservation. As the need became acute for the territory reserved for them, an
arrangement was consummated whereby the Indians were induced to exchange that land for new
land in an adjoining district in which a new house was built free for each family. Besides a house,
an allotment of land and a sum of money, reported to be ten thousand dollars, was given to each
family. This allowed them to become very modern, and, accordingly, many of them owned
automobiles and other modern luxuries. The physical effects of the use of food luxuries, resulting
from ample funds for purchasing any foods that they might desire, was marked. They were in close
proximity to skilled dental service and had practical training in oral prophylaxis. Notwithstanding
this, 48.5 per cent of all teeth examined had already been attacked by dental caries. Every
individual examined was suffering from tooth decay. The original diet of the Indians of the Pacific
Coast was, as we shall see, very largely sea foods, which are probably as abundant today as ever
before. It would require a real urge to go to catch the fish since they can now be purchased
canned in the open market. Like most modern people, they were living on white-flour products,
sweet foods and pastries. Probably few cities of the Pacific Coast have had a greater abundance and variety of edible sea
foods, particularly the various kinds of salmon, than Ketchikan. It is beautifully located on an
island, and is the most southerly city in Alaska. Among the many fish that are abundant along this
part of the Pacific Coast is the oolachan or candle fish. It is a small fish, but very rich in oil; so
much so that it gets its name from being burned as a candle for light. This oil is collected in large
quantities and used as a dressing for many of their sea foods. It is also traded with the Indians of
the interior for furs and other products. An Indian settlement in this city was studied and it was
found that 46.6 per cent of all teeth examined had already been attacked by tooth decay. In many
of the homes individuals were ill with tuberculosis or arthritis. Tuberculosis had robbed many of the
homes of one or more of its children. At Juneau, the capital of Alaska, two groups were studied; one in the government hospital, and
the other in an Indian settlement. In the hospital were both Indians and Eskimos, chiefly the former. Seventy-five per cent of the patients were reported to have been brought because they had
tuberculosis, and some who had come because of accident and other conditions were reported to
have tuberculosis also. Approximately 50 per cent of the total hospital enrollment was under 21
years of age. The dental conditions were bad, for 39.1 per cent of all the teeth examined had been
attacked by tooth decay. In the Indian settlement, a group of elderly primitives was found, every one of whom had
complete dentitions in normal arrangement of the arches and without dental caries. In a settlement
of modern Indians living principally on modern foods 40 per cent of all teeth had been attacked by
tooth decay. At Sitka, the former capital, two important groups were studied. Located here is the Sheldon
Jackson School for Eskimos and Indian boys and girls, chiefly Indians. They have come from
widely scatterd territory throughout Alaska, and represent the finest physical specimens that can
readily be secured for giving the advantages of an education. Of necessity they came very largely
from the modernized districts. In this group 53.7 per cent of all the teeth examined had already
been attacked by tooth decay. This gives an indication of the dental conditions in the large number
of modernized districts which they represented. In a settlement at Sitka, a group of Indians of various ages were studied, and it was found that
35.6 per cent of all their teeth had already been attacked by dental caries. A well preserved native
Indian, seventy years of age, was found who had come into town from another district. He stated7/29/13 Nutrition and Physical Degeneration
gutenberg.net.au/ebooks02/0200251h.html#toc 59/250that his diet had consisted chiefly of fish, fish eggs, seaweed and deer. His teeth were of very high
excellence and were entirely free from past or present dental caries. He is a splendid example of
the product of the native dietary provided for the Pacific Coast people of any period or stage of
civilization. The local physician at Sitka kindly gave very valuable information relative to the attitude of the
native Indians in the matter of obtaining fresh sea foods when foods that were very satisfying could
be so easily obtained in concentrated form at the various stores. They could go to one of the piers
at almost any time of the year and catch fish or secure them as they had been accustomed to do
before the arrival of modern foods, but there is a constant striving to be like and live like the white
people. They seem to think it is a mark of distinction to purchase their foods and that it is
degrading to have to forage for one's foods. They very readily come to depend on white flour and
sugar, jams and canned vegetables; and much prefer to have the government or charitable
organization supply these when they cannot purchase them, rather than go out and secure their
own nutrition. This physician stated that there were about 800 whites living in the town and about
400 Indians, and that notwithstanding this difference in numbers there were twice as many Indian
children born as white children, but that by the time these children reached six years of age there
were more white children living than Indian and half-breed children


echanism' of psychosomatic illness. For, since the
state of the mind is reflected in the state of the field, it is not too
hard to imagine how business worries or an unhappy marriage
can produce ulcers. Last-but not least-the discovery that the state of the mind
can affect the state of the field should induce a new sympathy for
the emotionally distressed. We should no longer be so ready to
brush off their miseries with the remark : 'it's all in their imagina
tion.'Perhaps it is. But if an emotion-even one recalled by
hypnosis-is able to affect a voltmeter it cannot be lightly dis
missed as a figment, whatever its origin. It has a definite reality. As Dr. Ravitz has put it:
'Both emotional activity and stimuli of any sort involve
mobilization of electric energy, as indicated on the galvano
meter. Hence. both emotion s and stimuli evoke the same
energy. Emotions can be equated with energy.'THE FIELD AS A SIGNPOST
6
Behaviour is the reaction of a living �ystem to the co-ordina ted
and integrated stimuli resulting from changes in the physical and
chemical environments. In the case of man, at least, to the
physical factors of environ ment the ideological environment
must also be added because an idea is just as valid a stimulus to
the nervous system as a kick in the teeth. As a matter of fact, it can be shown, without much question,
that ideas arc actually more important as stimuli to the nervous
system than any of the others. One needs only to look at the
history of the outstanding figures of the last two or three hundred
years who, rightly or wrongly, had ideas which profoundly
affected whole generations. This is true of dictators, politicians,
philosophers, religionists or military leaders. As ideas are-or induce-em otions which evoke energy in
the nervous system, electro-metric studies of this phenomenon
seem relevant to the study of human behaviour, even if they offer
no hope of improving it. At the least we may be able to learn a
little about how the machine works, even if we cannot under
stand how the driving ideas originate. Though man, over the years, has acquired an extraordinary
control over his physical environment, the problem of human re
lations remains unsolved. We seem to be no better off in dealing
with each other than were our remote ancestors. Part of the
reason for this, of course, is to be found in the enormous com
plexity of the nervous system of man and the lack of real under
standing of the way the protoplasm of nervous tissue operates. So any approach to the problem of human behaviour should start
with a better understanding of the nervous system. For whether
it is an idea, an emotion or a kick in the teeth which triggers the
activity of the nervous system, a basic requirement, needless to
say, is the storehouse of energy made availahle by the chemical
flux of protoplasm as noted in the previol1s chapter. Though the energy required to make an adjustment is derived
from this chemical activity, the direction in which the energy
flows, and the way in which it is used, is a consequence of the

pattern of organization of neural tissues. It is not enough, there
fore, to know the details of the complex structures involved, but
rather to have some over-all grasp and underst anding of the way
the nervous system works. Analysis of the units is of vital im
portance, even down to the sub-microscopic level, but equally
important is a grasp of the relationships between all the com
ponent parts. Since behaviour, moreover, is the result, in part, of the im
pact of one organism on another, no real picture of the forces
which make man operate the way he does is possible without a
complete knowledge and understanding of the structure and
function of the nervous system. The results of many years of study have tended to emphasize
certain rather stereotyped activities. As a result, the electrical
circuit analogies tended to lead investigators away from the basic
fact that each neurone is in itself a living organism. These elec
trical circuit analogies, partly impired by the modern computer,
are derivable directly from the fundamental propert y of proto
plasm, and more particularly, from the all-or-none response of a
nerve cell. Even the simplest protoplasmic system can be stimulated by
changes in the physical, chemical and ideological environment,
can transmit these effects through its substance, can coordinate,
correlate and integrate all the varieties of stimuli and can, as a
result, make that adjustment necessary for the continued exist
ence of the system. The behaviour of even the simplest organism
is parodic in that it 'functions in accordance with its inherent de
sign'. * One of the greatest difficult ies in assaying behaviour lies
in its complexity, in the lack of objective measurement and in
a very great influence of the subjective. In the literature, the description of hehaviour of even the
simplest organisms is coloured by anthropom orphisms. The criti
cal study of behaviour, moreover, almost invariably involves
some disturbance in the organism under study. Ideally, any
measurement must involve no alteration in the thing measured
during the measure ment. This is difficult to achieve even in

physical systems. It is peculiarly difficult in biological systems
unless we employ the techniques described in the preceding pages. Our experiments had offered some signposts to a better under
standing of the human nervous system. We had found with corn
kernels-it will be remembe red-evidence of a close correlation
between a measurable, electro-metric charact eristic and both the
genetic constitu tions and also their subsequent productivity in
the field. A study, too, of the sensitive plant Mimosa, had yielded evid
ence that in this particular living form, the protoplasmic mechan
ism showed characteristics very similar to those found in the
nervous system. In other words, the nervous system in higher
forms and in a relatively-simple system like a plant had similar
electro-metric responses. All this, admittedly, is a very modest approach to a better
understanding of the human nervous system. But, at least, it is
a beginning and, as Confucius said: 'The longest journey starts
with the first step.'Perhaps the most important aspect of the first step is that L
field measurement s make it possible to measure the effects of
various stimuli to the nervous system. For, in the history of
science, the ability to measure something has often-if not
always-been the foundation-stone of progress. 7
As everyone knows, there is speculation whether the Universe
is an expanding one or a closed system, whether it is governed
by a static set of laws or is a dynamic, active Universe in which
growth and development occur. It is clear enough that the laws of
the Universe, as we know them, are not happenstanc e phenom
ena hut are closely integrated in a unit. The statement that the biologist makes, that the living organ
ism is more than the sum of its parts, applies equally to the
Universe. The living organism, also, is a whole unit, no part of
which can go off on a tangent by itself without disaster to the
living system. There is no reason to suppose that this same
92 THE FIELD AS A SIGNPOST
general principle cannot be applied to human behaviour, for
human behaviour is not the result of the imposition of legalistic
and moralla ws on the biological laws of the organism, but rather
behaviour is the comeqence of the activity of the nervous system
of man. The nervous system of man is an organized, designed,
dynamic machine. Many people object at once to this spuriously-lab elled'materi
alistic' approach to the Universe. But this is nonsense. The Uni
verse is not only a machine but also has certain qualitative
attributes. We talk about the beauty of the star-filled night,
the odour of a bed of lilies-of-the-valley; and we could go on
almost indefinitely listing the qualitative attributes of the things
that are common to our environment. These qualitative characteristics do not control the physical
system but are attributes of it, and if our modern concepts are
anywhere near right, there is an interchange, which the experts
call 'feed-back relationships', between the qualitative attributes
of the physical system and the activity of the system itself. Just
how this is accomplished, we do not know. We ought to know,
and in time we probably will know. In the meantime, we should remember the fact-pointed out
by Sir Charles Sherrington several decades ago-that the mind
of man does not exist in time, does not occupy space, and in
volves, so far as anyone knows, no energy transformations. But
the nervous system, through which the mind of man works, does
exist in time, does occupy space, and does require energy trans
formations. Admittedly, this is a mystery. How can a non-material attri
bute such as the mind of man actually influence the organic
nervous system. It can be argued that moral law is an example
of this kind of thing. Moral or spiritual laws do not exist


 told her she had "Ascites"; a
cancerous fluid that floats freely in the body, or, forms into encapsulated cysts. She
and Ken looked-up Ascites on the Internet and were horrified to find that there was
almost nothing on the subject. They then designed a website about Ascites and their
experiences, www.asciteshelp.com. It is one of the most outstanding sites on the net
and Cindy and Ken's trials and tribulations give hope to thousands. Although it is against the law for me to disagree with her doctor, I  do not think
Cindy had Ascites. As the medical community has been beguiled, this is the way I  see
this potentially terminal condition: It has been my experience (as in Cindy's case) that
these multiple fluid cysts are a result of taking my enzymes, and that the body's self
defense forms pockets of very toxic metabolic wastes. If these toxic wastes were not
captured in cysts they are usually fatal. This was also the case with Dr. Pamela and the after effects of Chelation Therapy
that removed toxic metals from her body. In Dr. Pamela's case, a fluid cyst twice the
size of the kidney was formed to hold these toxic substances until they could be
safely removed from the body. Of course, the ignorant physician wanted to remove
the kidney. These fluid cysts are life saving back-up systems Yahweh, God Almighty,
has built into this most perfect instrument of all creation. Cindy is a "Gate Rattler". Even when she was in extensive pain, her desire was to
live and not rattle the front gates of heaven. Whenever she was pushed to her limit,
she would have visions of St. Peter, looking in his book telling her that she had not
52
Winning The Cancer War
been invited to visit heaven so soon. In fall of 2003, about every ten days to two weeks while experiencing extensive
pain from Ascites fluid buildup, Cindy had many opportunities to rattle St. Peter's
pearly gates. He would go to the throne room and say to Yahweh, God Almighty,
"This cute little ol' Florida heifer might be coming to visit us!" God would say, "Send
her back - she has much more work to do." This affair with St. Peter went back and forth over 40 times whenever Cindy had fluid
buildup. St. Peter was tired of hiking to the throne room so he would shout over to
God. "God, that cute little ol' heifer from Florida might try to visit us again." God
would shout back, "Tell her, not yet, go home and get to work!" Cindy would have made it inside the pearly gates if it had not been for her
radiologist and doctor. Every time she would come in to see them when these fluid
cysts filled up, the radiologist would get out his big long needle and drain another
cyst. This procedure is called Paracentesis. On September 1, 2003, the Oncologist report stated that the tests performed on the
Ascites fluid showed that the cancer cells were well differentiated, a very positive sign
considering cancer cells are very aggressive, and are typically fragmented and poorly
differentiated. Cindy was getting better! Although in my opinion, Cindy did not have Ascites, it is no wonder the medical
profession called these fluid cysts Ascites. They filled-up to the point of causing near
death, then she would rattle Peter's pearly gates and have her little affair with him. What I  am trying to say is, Yahweh, God Almighty, has a lot of back-up systems built
into his created masterpiece. World War III
We have been plunged into World War III by our Common Enemy. The major
dilemma we are encountering is that you and I, do not recognize that we are in the
middle of World War III, let alone who is our enemy. No metabolic program will
keep you well and healthy when you are subject to being attack by biological warfare
agents via Chem-trails, vaccinations, drugs, contaminated food and "treated" water. 53
The Panc reatic  Study
The Medical Establishment has for many years
endeavored to discredit Dr. Kelley's most successful
Cancer Paradigm developed in 1963. A Review of Dr. Kelley's
Pancreatic Cancer Patients
The Medical Establishment has for many years endeavored to discredit Dr. Kelley's
most successful Cancer Paradigm developed in 1963. A medical journalist obtained authorization under the guidance and direction of
Dr. Robert A Good, Ph.D., M.D. president of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer
Center in New York City to review Dr. Kelley's records. The objective of the Medical
Establishment was to prove beyond a shadow of doubt, that Dr. Kelley was an
unorthodox quack. Dr. Kelley's objective was to prove beyond a shadow of doubt
that the Kelley Paradigm is the only scientific basis for the Cure of Cancer. Dr. Kelley
had some 33,000 well-documented medical records of his Cancer Patients. The
documentation was so overwhelming this Study continued for over 5 years. Legally the definition for a Cancer Cure is, a patient must be free of Cancer five
years after initial diagnosis. The study was approached from two general parameters. First parameter was for all types of Cancer. The results indicated a 93% Cure Rate,
after their physicians dismissed the patients, stating no further orthodox medical
therapy could be helpful for them. In other words, their disease processes had
exceeded the therapeutic limits of Orthodox Medicine and they could no longer be
helped. Thus the standard Orthodox Death Sentence - go home and die! Dr. Kelley often states, "it is possible to Cure only 97% of Cancer Patients as in 3%
of those diagnosed with cancer, the Patient has a death wish, or more frequently the
next of kin (wife, husband, parents, children) have a Death Wish for the Cancer
Patient." The conditions for success of the 97% of those Cancer Patients are two in
nature. One, the patient must have at least 6 months of time to get well into the
Kelley Program and two, one must follow the protocol exactly and faithfully. After
the first six months, there is an excellent prognosis for recovery. The Cancer patient's
road to success is difficult and usually takes an additional 18 months of intense
54

therapy, which can only be accomplished by the Patient. When recovery has been
gained, one must keep in mind that for the remainder of one's life Diet and
Pancreatic support is mandatory for a Cancer free life. The Pancreatic Study
Introduction
The Second parameter of the review dramatically supports the above paragraph. In
the Second parameter of the study, there was a 100% cure rate for Pancreatic Cancer
Patients who carefully, faithfully and completely followed Dr. Kelley's Metabolic
Protocol. The Orthodox Medical Cure Rate for Pancreatic Cancer is 0%. Although the
following study includes only a very few Pancreatic cases for various reasons and
whims of the reporting journalist, it is the most significant and successful Pancreatic
Cancer Study in the world to date. This study alone proves Dr. Kelley's objective, the
Kelley Metabolic Cancer Paradigm is the only scientific basis and protocol for a
Cancer Cure. The Study
Twenty-two (22) patients were selected for the study. Seventeen (17) of these
patients had died. Five (5) patients were cured
Compliance
Compliance, that is how rigorously each patient followed his or her Metabolic
Program was determined from several sources. Interviews with patients, family
members, physicians, supplement purchases and Dr. Kelley's notes. Ten (10) of the twenty-two (22) patients had consulted Dr. Kelley only once, and
had never followed the Metabolic Program, not even for a single day. All patients
died. Another seven (7) patients pursued their Metabolic Program only partially and
sporadically, for periods of time ranging from four weeks to thirteen (13) months. All
these patients, too, were dead. None of these patients had used the Kelley Metabolic
Program at all during the three months prior to their death. Patients failed to follow the Metabolic Program, or followed it incompletely, for a
number of reasons. One patient, who died the day after visiting Dr. Kelley, was too
55
Winning The Cancer War
sick to begin. Another patient, whose disease had already bankrupted him, could not
afford the supplements. Several patients gave up on the regime because their
physicians strongly opposed Dr. Kelley's approach. In addition, several found the
lifestyle changes, the diet and detoxification too unappealing. The reasons for non-compliance can be summarized as follows:
Reason for Non-Compliance # Patients
Too sick 1
Couldn't afford 1
Too much trouble or physician opposition 10
Reason unknown 5
Five (5) of the twenty-two (22) patients followed the full Metabolic regimen as
prescribed, and for periods ranging from two to ten (10) years. Each enjoyed a
complete regression of disease, and four (4) were still alive when this report was
published (1987). One (1) patent died after eleven and one half (11.5) years, of

whether	our	train	is	faster	or	slower,	we’re	all	on	our	way	to	the	same
destination. And	in	God’s	universe,	the	only	destination	is	Love. Knowing	that	we	will	die	doesn’t	make	life	less	important;	in	fact,	it	makes
it	more	important. The	realization	of	our	mortality	creates	a	sense	of	urgency
to	use	life	wisely,	to	appreciate	it	fully,	to	love	more	deeply	while	we’re	still
here	and	we	still	can. There	is	a	magical	thinking	to	youth:	Most	young
people	have	the	secret	thought	that	they’re	the	one	who’s	going	to	cheat
death. (“Death	wouldn’t	dare	take	me!”)	And	with	that	false	sense	that	life
will	last	forever	comes	a	casual	disregard	for	how	serious	it	is. When	I	wasyoung,	the	only	things	I	took	seriously	were	seriously	unimportant	things. It
was	only	with	age	that	I	came	to	see	how	important,	how	very	truly
important,	is	the	simple	existence	of	life	itself. When	you’re	young	it	never	occurs	to	you	that	when	you	call	a	friend	it’s
not	one	of	an	endless	number	of	times	you’ll	have	the	chance	to	do	so. Once
you	fully	appreciate	that	every	experience	in	the	material	world	is	finite,	you
realize	how	amazing	it	is	just	to	be	able	to	make	a	phone	call. As	my	friend
Sarah	often	says,	“Time’s	a-wastin’.”	Isn’t	that	the	truth. We	presume	on	things	we	have	no	idea	are	so	fleeting. When	we’re	young,
we	don’t	know—except	intellectually,	and	even	then	we	don’t	really	believe	it
—that	we	won’t	always	have	endless	energy	or	glow. When	age	forces	us	to
see	how	much	is	now	gone,	we	are	shocked	and	hurt	to	realize	all	the	things
that	are	over	and	will	not	come	again. But	then	something	happens	when	the	shock	wears	off	…	something	subtle
yet	immense. What	happens	is	counter	to	the	thinking	of	the	world. We’d
always	seen	older	people	at	dinner	or	at	the	theater,	and	we	looked	down	on
their	diminished	lives	with	pity. What	we	failed	to	realize—how	could	we
then?—	was	that	many	of	these	men	and	women	were	existing	in	a	parallel
universe	where	they	looked	at
us
	as	the	pitiable	ones,	having	not	yet	realized
what	life	was	about	or	even	really	for. They	were	having,	perhaps,	more	fun
than	we	knew. They	were	seeing,	perhaps,	what	we	had	not	yet	seen. What
has	happened	now	is	that	we’ve	entered	their	room. And	it	isn’t	what	we	had
expected. It’s	whatever	we
want
	it	to	be. Dear	God,

she	was	wrapping	her	small	children’s	presents,	that	he	didn’t	want	to	bemarried	anymore;	had	lost	one	of	her	children	suddenly	in	a	violent	accident;
and	is	now	married	to	a	practicing	alcoholic. I	felt	such	admiration	for	her	that
she	simply	wakes	up	each	morning	to	face	another	day. Any	one	of	those
things	might	have	knocked	me	out	for	years. I	don’t	know	what	it	is	that	keeps	us	coming	back	up. When	I	think	of	what
people	have	experienced—from	Auschwitz	to	Rwanda	to	Iraq	to	everyday
Americans	just	trying	to	survive—I	can	hardly	stand	it. Sometimes	I	think
that	the	oceans	are	a	material	manifestation	of	humanity’s	tears. Clearly	there
is	some	tenacity,	some	deeper	longing	to	keep	keeping	on,	that	lies	at	the
heart	of	the	human	experience. I	don’t	think	we	cleave	to	life	for	no	other
reason	than	that	we’re	afraid	of	death. I	think	we	cleave	to	life	out	of	a	deeper
knowing	that	there	is	something	about	it	that	has	not	happened	yet. Like
salmon	rushing	upstream,	we	instinctively	know	that	we	are	here	to	continue
the	process	of	life. That	we
are
	the	process	of	life. And	as	such,	we’re	here	to
contribute	to	a	larger	drama	than	our	individual	selves	could	ever	fathom,
much	less	describe. At	the	end	of	Stanley	Kubrick’s	movie	masterpiece
2001:	A	Space	Odyssey,
an	infant	is	seen	floating	through	outer	space. Surely	that	is	the	ultimate	goal
here:	the	birth	of	a	new	humanity. Yet	if	that	child	is	to	be	born,	someone
needs	to	parent	it—and	that	means	you	and	me. Conceived	in	our	minds	and
hearts,	it	will	be	breast-fed	by	our	compassionate	action. And	this	new
delightful	and	delighted	being	is	gestating	inside	us	all. Wars	and	rumors	of
war	abound,	that	is	true. But	people	continue	to	fall	in	love. People	continue
to	atone	for	their	mistakes. People	continue	to	forgive	and	to	ask	for
forgiveness. And	people	continue	to	hope	and	pray. The	point,	when	staring
death	in	the	face,	is	to	proclaim	more	life. And	we	are	doing	that. I	believe	in	a	compassionate	God,	for	Whom	it	takes	only	one	moment’s
epiphany,	one	moment’s	prayer,	one	moment’s	genuine	and	humble	desire	to
do	right	by	love	to	inspire	His	intervention	in	the	irresponsible	drama	of	a
reckless	humanity. As	we	look	not	back	nor	forward,	but	deep	within,	we	see
a	light	that	is	greater	than	the	darkness	of	the	world,	a	hope	that	surpasses	the
understanding	of	the	world,	and	a	love	that	is	greater	than	the	hatred	in	the
world. Seeing	that	light,	we	shall	follow	that	light	through	the	birth	canal	toward
humanity’s	rebirth. While	our	labor	is	long	and	in	some	ways	hard,	we	are
being	born	to	something	huge	and	precious. We	are	being	born	to	our	own

 and fear ofthe suffering. We want to avoid or
bypass the negative energy field of a lower energy
power and instead move up to a higher one, because,
as we move up to higher energies such as love, we are
then in the energy field of 500. When we move into unconditional lovingness at
level 540, the field has the capacity to heal; it is the
level of healers.The field that healers generate calibrates
at 540 and up. It is an immensely loving field, and the
emotion is experienced as lovingness-that desire to
be with life, to say yes to it, and to let go of resistance. PAIN AND SUFFERING 3II
The healing from acute pain that results automati
cally from using this technique can be experienced by
anyone. I have used it over and over again as have the
people who have tried it. Many people have had the
opportunity. I remember describing the technique to a
Sunday night class, and during the week, several mem
bers had acute injuries where this information was life
saving for them. It literally enabled them to carry on
through the terrible experiences. Not long after, a big,
burly friend visited me and gave me a hug,which broke
three ribs. I felt them snap but did not say anything
about it because he would have felt guilty. The ribs
healed, but later that winter, another friend gave me a
hug and broke three ribs on the other side ofthe body. Needless to say, I did not mention that either (so much
.for my 'rib karma'). How can this technique be utilized in handling
chronic pain, which is different from acute pain? We
handle it in the same way as used for acute pain; how
ever, it is done in a somewhat different manner.As we
said before, all experiences are being experienced in
consciousness. We look to see where the pain is being
experienced, such as in the thumb that got cut off. First, we could say the pain is in the thumb. Actually,
where is the pain being experienced? It moves our
attention away from the thumb. If one says,"I move the
focus ofattention to the top of my head," then,from the
locus of the top of the head, we look at the area of the
thumb and experience the painfulness of it, but where
is the painfulness of the thumb occurring? When we
do that,we begin to notice that the painfulness is being
experienced everywhere-all around the body and the 312 HEALING AND RECOVERY
energy fields of the body-it is really sort of occurring
everywhere. Most everyone has experienced the pain that
makes one sick to their stomach and feel flip-floppy
and weak in the knees.We experience it everywhere. If
we go into the top of the head, just as an exercise that
we do, from that point we begin to experience the
pain.We notice the pain as being everywhere and then
use the same technique that was used in handling the
acute pain.We let go of resisting what is being experi
enced everywhere; it is not going on in any specific
place. It is desirous to clearly differentiate the feeling, sen
sation, or experience from the thoughts. We are going
to be going on with all of life's problems, especially
with physical illnesses, with an absolute sensation com
ing in of what is really being experienced. The mind
then elaborates about the experience, labels it, and
puts concepts on it. For instance, one cannot experi
ence an ulcer or a sprain.Those are labels, concepts, or
diagnoses. 'Pain' is a concept as is the word'sensation'. The experiential phenomenon is beyond words, con
cepts, or labels. What is a person actually experiencing? Experiencing what the world calls an 'ulcer' is a sensa
tion in the abdominal area, 'right here'.Then the mind
says,"Well, ifI can't call it an ulcer, I'm going to say it is
burning. "That again is a concept.We have learned what
that means and that it is a thought form. We are not
actually experiencing a burning; instead, we are going
inside to an experiencing of the experience, which has
no words.We go beyond the words to the experiencing 313 PAIN AND SUFFERING
of the experience. When the animal experiences it, it has no words
about it; it is just what is going on.Why do we not call
up our animal nature and just be with what is being
experienced without saying anything about it? It is
because all these thoughts bring in complicated pro
grams and belief systems, and we then become subject
to the effect ofthese thoughts.IfI say to myself,"1 have
an ulcer," then a group of programs arises that go with
'ulcer'. Because of the nature of the mind, we begin to
experience all the programs because of the power of
the mind. The most difficult concept for people to
grasp when they enter research work in the field of
consciousness itself is the realization of the power of
the mind and how influential it really is.We just cannot
be careless about our thoughts. Once we understand the power of the mind and
the nature of thought, we begin to realize that one of
the principles of consciousness is that we are subject
only to what we hold in mind.This one sentence is the
key to the healing ofall illnesses, pain, and suffering. We
are subject only to what we hold in mind.The mind
is extraordinarily powerful. The great.difficulty that
people have is in comprehending how powerful the
mind is.Therefore, in dealing with pain or suffering of
any kind, it is first necessary to discontinue, let go, and
cancel all our belief systems about that. Research has
shown that it is the belief system itself which literally
creates the experience.The incident is an expression of
that belief system. It is as if the mind justifies what it
believes to be true. We can know if this is true by beginning to cancel 314 HEALING AND RECOVERY
the belief that pain and suffering are the same thing. In
handling pain, either acute or chronic, we have to can
cel all thoughts since they are really belief systems. Instead, we have to go for radical truth, radical in that
we release everything except the wordless experienc
ing of what is literally being experienced and let go of
the resistance to it. When we do that, we will experi
ence relief from the suffering, and curiously enough,
we will reach a point ~here we do not care whether
the 'pain' is present or not. That may be a difficult thing to accept in the begin
ning because the mind wants to be rid of the pain.This
therapeutic approach is to accept it instead, to let the
sensations be present but move away from them. In
other words, it is like the pain is circumscribed, and
now we begin to disengage from that localized pain. It
is the same as when we experience morphine with the
pain ofa broken ankle.The pain is present, and then we
begin to feel ourselves move away from that pain. It is
no longer us or ours. In that example, the narcotic does
what we are explaining can be done by consciousness. The narcotic does not actually do it, but it enables our
consciousness to make this very move. However, we
can learn to make this very move without being trig
gered by a narcotic. In the past, I have had to do that. I have been
severely allergic to any kind of analgesic, narcotic, or
anesthetic for many years, and over those years, I have
had all kinds of severe illnesses and accidents, plus sur
gery without anesthesia. Out of necessity, instead of
resorting to those usual methods of treating pain, I
have had to investigate and discover the capacity and 315 PAIN AND SUFFERING
power of consciousness itself. I found that all the anal
gesics did was allow consciousness to exercise its own
power.Therefore, we can own thatwe have the power
within our own consciousness to achieve the same
results without the analgesic. We begin to move away from the pain by letting go
of resisting it and not wanting to change it. We just let
the sensations be present and then shift our way of
being with them to the pOint where we do not care if
they exist. It may sound amazing that we do not even
care if they are present. It is very simple.We have been
upset over many things in our lives. We have felt that
we have to do something about them, but suddenly at
one point, we let them go and are indifferent to them. For example, there might have been a problem in the
back yard that ~as driving us crazy, and one day we
said, "Oh, the heck with it." Suddenly, we moved' from
trying to do something about it, to control it, to change
it, and exert our will, to just letting it be there. (When
we try to change people, places, or circumstances, we

Adapting the Therapy for Chemo-Pretreated
and Severely Weakened Patients
PLEASE NOTE: the same modifications apply for both categories
Chemotherapy drugs were just beginning to be introduced during Dr. Gerson’s years of
practice, and their effects were largely unknown. This explains why no reference to chemotherapy
can be found in his classic book, A Cancer Therapy—Results of 50 Cases. The large-scale use of
this treatment, based on the theory that strong poisons administered to the cancer patient would
kill the malignant cells but allow the healthy cells to recover, only built up in the years following
Dr. Gerson’s death; by now it is used almost universally all over the world. Sometimes it is applied
as an adjuvant treatment, in combination with other modalities; in other cases it is prescribed
for patients prior to surgery, to shrink their tumor, more often than not in terminal cases. Many
doctors, if questioned, admit that at best chemotherapy can only extend life expectancy by a few
months, and certainly does not promise a “cure.”
Our aim here is not to discuss the positive or negative results of chemotherapy, which are
amply described by Ralph Moss, Ph.D. ( The Cancer Industry, revised edition of the original
The Cancer Syndrome,  1989; ISBN#1-55778-075-7, Paragon House, NY) and many others. (see
Chapter 20, pg. 142 ) We are solely concerned with the changes that need to be made to the Gerson
protocol for patients who have previously been treated with toxic chemicals. When the Therapy was first practiced 18 years after Dr. Gerson’s death in the first Mexican
Gerson hospital, the doctors were reluctant to admit patients who had received chemotherapy. There was no mention of it in A Cancer Therapy, which served as their exclusive guide. Later, as
they became more familiar with the treatment and saw its positive effects, they cautiously accepted
two chemo-pre-treated patients who begged for their help. At that time, realizing the additional
damage caused by the highly toxic chemo drugs, the doctors assumed that these patients should
also undergo the regular detoxifying treatment, to remove the accumulated poisons from their
bodies. Accordingly, they administered the strict intensive protocol, including the castor oil treatment,
and were shocked to see that the castor oil began to remove those poisons too rapidly, releasing
them into the blood stream, actually causing the patients to suffer from an overdose of chemo
drugs. They had to be transferred to intensive care; fortunately both survived. This incident
quickly taught the doctors not to give chemo-pre-treated patients any castor oil, moreover to
work out a somewhat reduced treatment program for them, in order not to over-stress the liver or Copyright © Charlotte Gerson, 2007. All rights reserved.

www.thegersonway.comrelease toxins too rapidly. Since then we have seen a number of such patients making satisfactory long-term recoveries. But the results are achieved more slowly. Also, since the body is much more toxic owing to its
load of synthetic chemicals, the results are also somewhat less reliable. (see Chapter 27  for the
stories of patients who were unsuccessfully treated with chemo before being sent home to die—
yet recovered on the Gerson program). Chemo-pretreated patients also produce healing reactions (see Chapter 16.) These vary in
intensity during the first few months. However, as a rule a major chemo healing reaction occurs
approximately after six months on the Therapy, which is different from the standard flare-ups
experienced by chemo-free patients. The chemo-burdened patient excretes the toxic drugs still
stored in his or her organism and suffers disturbances that are similar, though less severe, than the
ones caused by the chemotherapy. They include some hair loss, nausea, mouth sores, pain, drop
in red- and white blood corpuscle counts, weakness, and changes in the test results. Some patients
can actually smell the chemicals being excreted through their skin. Often the enema returns also
smell of chemicals. Such a six-month chemo reaction can last up to three weeks, after which time
the patient is
