 Research on onions appears to
have lagged behind garlic research, but
onions seem to have similar
cardiovascular benefits, such as reducing
blood pressure and blood cholesterollevels, at least in the short term. Onions
have antibacterial and antifungal
properties, and also contain flavonoids,
which help vitamin C in its function,
improving the integrity of blood vessels
and decreasing inflammation.
Onions also contain vitamin C and
chromium. Chromium is a mineral that
helps cells respond to insulin, ultimately
assisting with blood glucose control.
Green onions, because of their bright
green tops, provide a wealth of vitamin A.
Onions are a very good source of vitamin
B6, biotin and fibre. They are also a good
source of folic acid and vitamins B1 and
K.The health benefits provided by onions
are mostly due to the several organic
sulphur compounds they contain. Like
garlic, onions also have the enzyme
allinase (released when an onion is cut or
crushed). Other constituents that are found
in onions include phenolic acids (such as
ellagic, caffeic, sinapic and p-coumaric),
pectin, sterols, saponins and volatile oils.
Pears
Pears are an excellent source of soluble
fibre. They contain vitamins A, B1, B2, C,
E, folic acid and niacin. They are also
rich in copper, phosphorus and potassium,
with lesser amounts of calcium, chlorine,iron, magnesium, sodium and sulphur.
Some varieties have more iron content
than others.
Pears have antioxidant and anti-
carcinogen glutathione, which help
prevent high blood pressure and stroke.
The high vitamin C and copper content act
as good antioxidants that protect cells
from damage by free radicals and are
critical in building the immune system.
The high content of pectin in pears makes
this fruit very useful in lowering
cholesterol levels. The pectin is also a
diuretic and has a mild laxative effect.
Drinking pear juice regularly helps
regulate bowel movements. Due to its high
amount of fructose and glucose, pear juiceis a quick and natural source of energy. It
is also high in fibre, which is highly
beneficial for colon health. Pear juice has
an anti-inflammatory effect and helps
relieve sufferers of much pain
in various
inflammatory conditions. Pears also
contain high levels of boron, which assists
in retaining calcium and thus prevents or
stops osteoporosis.
Peppers
Brightly coloured bell peppers, whether
green, red, orange or yellow, are rich
sources of some of the best nutrients
available. Peppers are an excellent source
of vitamins C and A, two very powerfulantioxidants. These antioxidants work
together to effectively neutralize free
radicals, which can travel through the
body causing huge amounts of damage to
cells which can lead to heart disease,
cataracts, asthma, diabetes, etc. By
providing these two potent free radical
destroyers, bell peppers may help prevent
or reduce some of the symptoms of these
conditions by shutting down the source of
the problem.
As mentioned above, all peppers are rich
in vitamins A, C and K, but red peppers
are simply bursting with them. Vitamins A
and C also reduce inflammation like that
found in arthritis and asthma. Vitamin K
promotes proper blood clotting,strengthens bones and helps protect cells
from oxidative damage.
Red peppers are a good source of the
carotenoid called lycopene, an antioxidant
compound that is earning a reputation for
helping prevent prostate cancer as well as
cancer of the bladder, cervix and
pancreas. Beta-cryptoxanthin, another
carotenoid in red peppers, helps to
prevent lung cancer related to smoking
and second-hand smoke. Besides being
rich in phytochemicals, peppers provide a
decent amount of fibre.
PineapplesPineapple is packed full of vitamins and
minerals. Its nutrients include calcium,
potassium, fibre and vitamin C. In
addition, it is low in fat and cholesterol.
Pineapple also contains a substance called
bromelain, which is a natural
anti-
inflammatory
 that has many health benefits
and encourages healing. According to Dr
Andrew Weil, bromelain is very effective
in treating bruises, sprains and strains by
reducing swelling, tenderness and pain.
This powerful anti-inflammatory effect
can also help relieve rheumatoid arthritis
symptoms and reduce post-operative
swelling. Additionally, the bromelain
contained in fresh pineapple can relieve
indigestion. This enzyme breaks down the
amino acid bonds in proteins whichpromotes good digestion.
Pineapples provide an ample supply of
vitamin C, a commonly known antioxidant
(as previously mentioned) that protects the
body from free radical damage and boosts
the immune system.
Pomegranates
Pomegranate contains polyphenols,
tannins and anthocyanins, all of which are
beneficial antioxidants. Its high
antioxidant content rivals that of many
other fruits, red wine and green tea.
Pomegranate juice also contains fibre,potassium and vitamin C. Studies are
being carried out to research the health
benefits of pomegranate juice in possibly
decreasing the return rate of prostate
cancer after surgery and chemotherapy. It
may also prevent hardening of the arteries
by keeping the arteries clear from fatty
deposits and may even slow the
progression of heart disease.
The antioxidant properties of pomegranate
help to guard the body against the
substances that can cause premature aging,
heart disease, Alzheimer’s, cancer and
other diseases or conditions. It has been
used around the world as a way to clear
skin. In folk medicine it has been used to
treat inflammation, sore throats andrheumatism.
Quinoa
Quinoa (pronounced keen-wah) is not a
grain; it is actually a seed of a plant which
belongs to the spinach family. When
cooked, quinoa is light and fluffy, slightly
crunchy and subtly flavoured. It in fact
cooks and tastes like a grain, making it an
excellent replacement for grains that are
difficult to digest or that feed candida (a
systemic fungal infection).
Researchers attribute the health benefits of
quinoa to its complete nutritional makeup.
Quinoa is close to being one of the mostcomplete foods in nature because it
contains amino acids, enzymes, vitamins
and minerals, fibre, antioxidants and
phytonutrients. Quinoa contains all nine
essential amino acids that are required by
the body as building blocks for muscles. It
also contains high levels of magnesium,
which helps to relax the muscles and
blood vessels, which in turn lowers blood
pressure.
Quinoa is a wonderful way to ensure that
you consume valuable fibre that eases
elimination and tones your colon. It is also
a good source of manganese and copper
which act as antioxidants in the body to
get rid of dangerous cancer and disease-
causing substances. Studies have shownthat in its whole grain form, quinoa may
be effective in preventing and treating
artherosclerosis, breast cancer, diabetes
and insulin resistance.
Raisins
Raisins are used worldwide in cuisines
(especially desserts), health tonics and as
snacks. They are made from drying grapes
(green or black), either in the sun or in
driers and they look like golden, green or
black gems.
Raisins contain vitamin B, which is
known for boosting energy. They are also
high in calories, which is important forathletes as it helps boost energy naturally.
They help relieve constipation, anaemia,
fever, and help in weight gain, eye care,
dental care and bone health. The juice of
soaked or stewed raisins has been found
to be a good remedy for sore throat,
asthma and cases of cold. Raisins contain
oleic acid, which helps promote good oral
health by destroying the bacteria that
cause cavities. They are also rich in iron,
fibre and tartaric which promote digestive
health and regularity. Research has found
that eating two servings a day may help
lower the risk of colon cancer. They are
one of the best dietary sources of boron,
which is essential for bone health. The
minerals in raisins in conjunction withoestrogen in women help make bones
stronger and ward off osteoporosis.
Raisins are rich in antioxidants that help
protect our bodies against free radical
damage. They can help lower cholesterol
and reduce the risk of heart disease. The
fruit sugar in raisins is more digestible
than cane sugar and will not wreck havoc
with blood sugar levels.
Red Wine
Recent studies show that drinking one
glass of red wine each day may have
certain health benefits. Research also
indicates that moderate red wineconsumption may help protect against
certain cancers and heart disease, and can
have a positive effect on cholesterol
levels and blood pressure. The key to
reaping the health benefits seems to be
moderate consumption, so don’t think that
by drinking a bottle you would be getting
these benefits – it doesn’t work that way!
Drinking one glass a day for women and
up to two glasses a day for men may
reduce the risk of heart disease, cancer or
stroke.
The compounds found in red wine that


 I know about the interval?” You, yourself deter -
mine the interval.
We have today in our modern world a little word which confuses most of
us. I know it confused me until I dug deeper. The word is “action.” Action
is supposed to be the most fundamental thing in the world. It is not an
atom, it is more fundamental. It is not a part of an atom like an electron,
it is more fundamental than that. They call it the fourth-dimensional unit.
The most fundamental thing in the world is action.
You ask, “What is action?” Our physicists tell us that it is energy multi -
plied by time. We become more confused and say, “Energy multiplied by
time, what does that mean?” They answer, “There is no response to a
stimulus, no matter how intense the stimulus, unless it endures for a cer -
tain length of time.” There must be a minimum endurance to the stimulus
or there is no response. On the other hand there is no response to time
unless there is a minimum degree of intensity. Today the most fundamen -
tal thing in the world is called action, or simply energy multiplied by time.
The Bible gives it as three days; the duration is three days for response in
this world. If I would now assume I am what I want to be, and if I am
faithful to it and walk as though I were, the very longest stretch given for
its realization is three days.
If there is something tonight that you really want in this world, then expe -
rience in imagination what you would experience in the flesh were you to
realize your goal and deafen your ears, and blind your eyes to all that de -
nies the reality of your assumption.
If you do this you would be able to tell me before I leave this city of Los
Angeles that you have realized what was only a wish when you came
here. It will be my joy to rejoice with you in the knowledge that the child
which was seemingly dead is now alive. This damsel really was not dead,
she was only asleep. You fed her in this silence because you have meat no
one else knows of. You gave her food and she became a resurrected living
reality within your world. Then you can share your joy with me and I can
rejoice in your joy.
The purpose of these lessons is to remind you of the law of your own be -
ing, the law of consciousness; you are that law. You were only uncon -
scious of its operation. You fed and kept alive the things you did not wish
More Free Books Law of Attraction Havento express within this world.
Take my challenge and put this philosophy to the test. If it does not work
you should not use it as a comforter. If it is not true, you must completely
discard it. I know it is true. You will not know it until you try either to
prove or disprove it.
Too many of us have joined “isms” and we are afraid to put them to the
test because we feel we might fail; and, then, where are we? Not really
wanting to know the truth concerning it, we hesitate to be bold enough to
put it to the test. You say, “I know it would work in some other way. I do
not want to really test it. While I have not yet disproved it, I can still be
comforted by it.
Now do not fool yourself, do not think for one second that you are wise.
Prove or disprove this law. I know that if you attempt to disprove it, you
will prove it, and I will be the richer for your proving it, not in dollars, not
in things, but because you become the living fruit of what I believe I am
teaching in this world it is far better to have you a successful, satisfied
person after five days of instruction than to have you go out dissatisfied. I
hope you will be bold enough to challenge this instruction and either
prove or disprove it.
Now before we go into the silence period I shall briefly explain the tech -
nique again. We have two techniques in applying this law. Everyone here
must now know exactly what he wants. You must know that if you do not
get it tonight you will still be as desirous tomorrow concerning this objec -
tive.
When you know exactly what you want, construct in your mind's eye a
single, simple event which implies fulfillment of your desire, an event
wherein self predominates. Instead of sitting back and looking at yourself
as though you were on the screen, you be the actor in the drama.
Restrict the event to one single action. If you are going to shake a hand
because that implies fulfillment of your desire then do that and that only.
Do not shake hands and then wander off in your imagination to a dinner
party or to some other place. Restrict your action to simply shaking hands
and do it over and over again, until that handshake takes on the solidity
and the distinctness of reality.
If you feel you cannot remain faithful to an action, I want you now to de -
fine your objective, and then condense the idea, which is your desire, into
a single phrase, a phrase which implies fulfillment of your desire, some
phrase such as, “Isn't it wonderful?”
More Free Books Law of Attraction HavenOr if I felt thankful because I thought someone was instrumental in bring -
ing my desire to pass, I could say, “Thank you,” and repeat it with feeling
over and over again like a lullaby until my mind was dominated by the
single sensation of thankfulness.
We will now sit quietly in these chairs with the idea which implies fulfill -
ment of our desire condensed to a single phrase, or to a single act. We
will relax and immobilize our physical bodies. Then let us experience in
imagination the sensation which our condensed phrase or action affirms.
If you imagine yourself shaking another person's hand, do not use your
physical hand, let it remain immobilized. But imagine that housed within
your hand is a more subtle, more real hand, which can be extracted in
your imagination. Put your imaginary hand into the imaginary hand of
your friend who stands before you and feel the handshake. Keep your
physical body immobilized even though you become mentally active in
what you are now about to do.
Now we will go into the silence.

May I take just a minute to clarify what was said last night. A lady felt
from what I said last night that I am anti one nation. I do hope that I am
not anti any nation, race or belief. If perchance I used a nation, it was
only to illustrate a point.
What I tried to tell you was this – we become what we contemplate. For it
is the nature of love, as it is the nature of hate, to change us into the like -
ness of that which we contemplate. Last night I simply read a news item
to show you that when we think we can destroy our image by breaking
the mirror, we are only fooling ourselves.
When, through war on revolution, we destroy titles which to us represent
arrogance and greed, we become in time the embodiment of that which
we thought we had destroyed. So today the people who thought they de -
stroyed the tyrants are themselves that which they thought they had de -
stroyed.
That I may not be misunderstood, let me again lay the foundation of this
principle. Consciousness is the one and only reality. We are incapable of
seeing other than the contents of our own consciousness.
Therefore, hate betrays us in the hour of victory and condemns us to be
that which we condemn. All conquest results in an exchange of character -
istics, so that conquerors become like the conquered foe. We hate others
for the evil which is in ourselves. Races, nations, and religious groups
have lived for centuries in intimate hostility, and it is the nature of hatred,
as it is the nature of love, to change us into the likeness of that which we
contemplate.
Nations act toward other nations as their own citizens act toward each
other. When slavery exists in a state and that nation attacks another it is
with intent to enslave. When there is a fierce economic competition be -
tween citizen and citizen, then in war with another nation the object of
the war is to destroy the trade of the enemy. Wars of domination are
brought about by the will of those who within a state are dominant over
the fortunes of the rest.
We radiate the world that surrounds us by the intensity of our imagination
and feeling. But in this third-dimensional world of ours time beats slowly.
And so we do not always observe the relationship of the visible world to
our inner nature.
Now that is really what I meant. I thought I had said it. That I may not be
misunderstood, that is my principle. You and I can contemplate an ideal,
and become it by falling in love with it.
More Free Books Law of Attraction HavenOn the other hand we can contemplate something we heartily dislike and
by condemning it we will become it. But because of the slowness of time
in this three-dimensional world, when we do become what we contem -
plated we have forgotten that formerly we set out to worship or destroy
it.

This
led
to
an
overload
of
the
excretory
system,
the

indicates
the

process,
which
is
very
good.
However,
this

completed.
In

with

was
overflowing

but
at

years
of
age
he
had
enough
strength
to
make
amends.
The
beginning
of
the
cleansing
from
4
to
7,
when
the
large

is
working,
testifies
to
the
existence
of
these
forces.
At
least
a
weekly
application
of
the
enema
would
have
greatly
facilitated
the
cleansing.
The
use
of

in
which
biologically
active
substances
appeared,
as
well
as
enzymes
helping
to
clean
the

made
this

of
such

If

is
used
through

skin,
specific

may
occur.
Example:
"At
the
age

31,
I
suddenly
started
losing

I
had
a

and
my

My
hairdresser
(an
elderly

advised
me
to
make
a
poultice
of
warm

After

however,
I
had

and
recommendation:
The
use
of
urine
through
the

always
leads
to
cleansing
of
the

and
brings
everything
to
the
surface.
If

after
4
to
5
massage
procedures
with
urine,
this
is
proof
that
the
cleansing
mechanism
has
been
started.
Continue
massaging
the
skin
every

Visit
the

People
often
don't

how

themselves
at

Urine
brings
them
to

helps
to
find
out
what
many
have
no

we	can	assume	that	they	produce	hundreds,	if	not	thousands,
of	stones	in	the	liver	bile	ducts.	I	repeatedly	observed	that	people	who	have	taken
pharmacological	drugs	in	the	past	have	had	considerably	more	gallstones	than	those	who
took	none.
Symptomatic	treatment	always	has	a	hefty	price	tag	attached	to	it,	that	is,	an	impairment
of	basic	liver	functions.	It	is	far	easier	and	more	beneficial	for	the	body	to	remove	all
gallstones,	restore	normal	blood	values,	and	improve	digestion	and	waste	removal	than	to
suppress	the	symptoms	of	a	disease.	Symptoms	are
not
	the	disease;	they	only	indicate	that
the	body	is	attempting	to	save	and	protect	itself.	They	signal	the	body’s	need	for	attention,
support,	and	care.	Treating	disease	as	if	it	were	an	enemy,	when	in	reality	it	is	a	survival
attempt,	actually	sabotages	the	body’s	healing	abilities	and	sows	the	seeds	for	further
illness.
	Fluoride	Poisoning

Since	the	liver	is	unable	to	break	down	fluoride,	it	attempts	to	pass	this	poisonous
chemical	into	the	bile	ducts	(which	are	the	only	alternative	way	for	the	liver	to	deal	with
it).	This	leads	to	bile	duct	congestion	and	numerous	other	ailments.	Fluoride	is	added	to	60
percent	of	the	drinking	water	in	the	United	States	and	a	number	of	other	countries.
Manufacturers	add	it	to	a	wide	range	of	products,	including	soy	products,	toothpaste,
fluoride	tablets,	fluoride	drops,	fluoride	chewing	gum,	tea,	vaccines,	household	products,
fluoridated	salt	or	milk,	anesthetics,	mattresses	emitting	fluoride	gases,	Teflon,	and
antibiotics.	It	is	also	found	in	polluted	air	and	polluted	ground	water.	Because	of	its	proven
high	toxicity,	in	August	2002	Belgium	became	the	first	country	in	the	world	to	prohibit
fluoride	supplements.

“Fluoridation	…	is	the	greatest	fraud	that	has	ever	been	perpetrated	and	it	has	been
perpetrated	on	more	people	than	any	other	fraud	has,”	said	Professor	Albert	Schatz,	Ph.D.
(Microbiology),	discoverer	of	streptomycin	and	Nobel	Prize	winner.	Fortunately,	98
percent	of	Western	Europe	has	rejected	water	fluoridation.	This	includes	Austria,	Belgium,
Denmark,	Finland,	France,	Germany,	Italy,	Luxembourg,	the	Netherlands,	Norway,	and
Sweden.	Exhaustive	research	has	shown	that	tumors	in	laboratory	animals	were	found	to
be	the	direct	result	of	fluoride	ingestion.	Other	animal	studies	found	that	fluoride
accumulates	in	the	pineal	gland	and	interferes	with	its	production	of	melatonin,	a	hormone

physiological	processes.	In	humans,	fluoride	has	been	found	to	cause	arthritis,
osteoporosis,	hip	fractures,	cancer,	infertility,	Alzheimer’s	disease,	and	brain	damage.

Until	the	1950s,	European	doctors	used	fluoride	to	treat	hyperthyroidism	(overactive
thyroid).	The	daily	dose	of	fluoride	that	people	are	now	receiving	in	fluoridated
communities	far	exceeds	the	dose	of	fluoride	that	was	found	to	depress	the	thyroid	gland.
Because	of	fluoridation,	millions	of	people	are	now	suffering	from	hypothyroidism
(underactive	thyroid).	This	condition	is	currently	one	of	the	more	common	medical
problems	in	the	United	States.	Today,	over	150	symptoms	can	be	identified	in
hypothyroidism.	Almost	all	correlate	with	known	symptoms	of	fluoride	poisoning.	The
symptoms	of	hypothyroidism	include	depression,	dizziness,	fatigue,	weight	gain,	muscle
and	joint	pain,	hair	loss,	headache,	migraine,	shortness	of	breath,	GI	problems,	menstrual
problems,	unbalanced	blood	pressure,	increased	cholesterol	levels,	allergies,	insomnia,
panic	attacks	and	moodiness,	irregular	heart	beat,	and	congestive	heart	failure.	A	large
number	of	children	and	adults	in	India	and	other	developing	countries	are	crippled	and
their	teeth	are	destroyed	because	of	fluoride	poisoning	from	industry	pollution.

To	help	the	body	deal	with	fluoride-caused	illnesses,	including	hypothyroidism,	it	is
important	to	clean	out	the	liver	bile	ducts,	avoid	fluoride-containing	products,	and	use	awater	filtering	system	that	removes	fluoride.	Distillation	and	reverse	osmosis	(R/O)	are
effective	in	removing	the	fluoride	(along	with	contaminants).	For	more	ideal	filtering

	Lifestyle
	Disrupting	the	Biological	Clock

The	way	we	organize	and	live	our	lives	has	a	tremendous	impact	on	how	the	body
functions.	Its	efficiency	and	performance	largely	depend	on	predetermined	biological
rhythms	that	are	in	synchrony	with	the
circadian	rhythms
	of	nature
.
	Circadian	rhythms	are
closely	linked	with	the	movements	of	our	planet	around	the	sun.	They	are	also	influenced
by	the	motions	of	the	moon	and	the	other	planets	in	relation	to	the	position	of	the	earth.

Our	body	follows	more	than	a	thousand	such	24-hour	rhythms.	Each	individual	rhythm
controls	the	timing	of	an	aspect	of	our	body’s	functions,	including	heart	rate,	blood
pressure,	body	temperature,	hormone	levels,	secretion	of	digestive	juices,	and	even	pain
threshold.	All	these	rhythms	are	well	coordinated	with	one	another	and	are	controlled	by
the	brain’s	“pacemaker	device,”	known	as
suprachiasmatic	nuclei
.	This	area	of	the	brain
regulates	the	firing	of	nerve	cells	that	seem	to	set	the	clocks	of	our	biological	rhythms.	If
one	rhythm	becomes	somewhat	disrupted,	other	rhythms	are	thrown	off	balance,	too.	In
fact,	numerous	disorders	can	arise	from	interference	with	one	or	more	of	our	biological
rhythms	because	of	an	unbalanced,	irregular	lifestyle.

the	functioning	of	the	liver	and	gallbladder.	By	attuning	your	daily	routine	to	the	natural
schedule	of	your	body,	you	can	greatly	assist	it	in	its	ceaseless	effort	to	nourish,	cleanse,
and	heal	itself.	Moreover,	you	can	also	prevent	new	health	problems	from	arising	in	the

 soil—and take those foods in
their natural state, not refined by modern milling. Those who do eat
that type of food, produced at home, are the ones who have the healthy
mouths.
Let us assume for the same argument that fluorine is an
important element in preventing tooth decay. It is an established fact
that fluorine is found in the water, but it is also found in the soil. That
is where the element actually counts. The food plants which grow in
our soil, some of these, wheat, corn, potatoes, green beans, carrots,
turnips, cabbage and lettuce, all ta ke up the inorganic fluorine and
change it to organic form which the human body can assimilate.
Analysis by the Texas State Laboratories at Austin showed 2.2 to 2.7
p.p.m. (parts per million) of fluorine in the Hereford water. By contrast a recent spectograph analysis of Deaf Smith County wheat
showed hundreds of parts per million  of organic fluorine salts. That, I
say, is the type of fluorine which helps prevent tooth decay.
The calcium in that same wheat, found as abundantly, builds
strong bones and sound teeth. But when milk cows graze on our green
wheat fields in winter, when the young plants are richest in protein
and mineral content, the milk that those cows give, contains about all
the elements that the body needs—all in readily assimilable form. The
body requires all the minerals it is made of—not calcium and
phosphorus alone. When the children in this area are given plenty of
fresh raw (not pasteurized) milk, along with fresh ground whole wheat, and are given meat only sparingly, it is then, I have observed, that they have healthy mouths—and that means, they have healthy
bodies.
I have concluded from these observations that any immunity to
tooth decay which fluorine may pr ovide is best had through organic
fluorine which, as spectograph analysis shows, both our wheat and our milk contain. I am as firmly convinced that it is the inorganic fluorine
in the water, not the organic salt in wheat or milk that causes brown
mottled teeth in children. As that discoloration is invariably produced
when the child is young, it is not a stain, but a part of the enamel.
After the enamel is formed, no brown stain is deposited on it. How does the fluorine get into the water in the first place? My
theory is that it is dissolved from the soil by rainwater and carried
down to the underground reservoirs by seepage—but that fluorine is
inorganic.
For the reasons stated, I question if the experiments which a great
many cities are carrying out—adding sodium fluoride to their drinking
water will get results enough to avert tooth decay. We need not only to
prevent caries, we need to immunize every organ. To do that, I say,
add fluorine to the soil along with nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus
and all the trace minerals which a competent spectograph analysis
show that soil to be deficient in. Th en, grow food, feed or grass crops
in that soil—and use the food or fe edstuff thus produced in its fresh
natural state, unrefined and unprocessed.
To cite an instance, one of my  small patients, B. London, 12
years old, who had lived in Deaf Smith County all his life, came to me
with six front teeth decayed. Yet every tooth decayed in that boy's
mouth was mottled from excess fluorine. I found the enamel of the
teeth too badly chalky to hold fillings. There was nothing to do but put
in a bridge.
Here, I say, is strong evidence, not to say positive proof, that
fluorine does not prevent tooth decay. Certainly, that boy's mouth
pleads powerfully for going slowly with this fluoridation business. It
appears to be of benefit, but why not feed good food and prevent all
disease?
Recently, I ran across some authoritative support for that oft-
repeated contention: Dr. V. O. Hurme, director of clinical research at
the Forsyth Dental Infirmary for ch ildren, Boston, had written to the
New York Times pointing to the need for "thorough study of the
physiologic effects of fluorine," and Dr. Hurme adds:
 "I am painfully aware of the gr eat dearth of information on the
relationships between fluorine inge stion and general physical well-
being... No one knows how many people with diseased kidneys are
having their lives shortened... by not more than one part per million
of fluorine in their drinking water... The teeth of our people may be
important, but are we ready to maintain that they are even more
important than the organs of our adult taxpayers?"
What Mr. Hurme has written, it seems to me, bears out my
questioning if inorganic fluorine, a poison, should be taken into the
human body at all. On the other hand, people consume organic
fluorine at the rate of several hundred, not just one or two, parts per
million, when they consume Deaf Smith County wheat and milk. Spectograph analysis shows that the fluorine is there —but the body tolerates the organic fluorine, takes what it needs and discards the rest
and no harm is done. That is my theory; but it, too, will have to be
verified by study and tests. Fluorine  in water is not compatible with
health.
Again, I say that the principal factor in preventing tooth decay is
not fluorine in the water, but a well-balanced ration of tooth-building minerals in children's diet that prevents tooth decay. It may be
fluorine, but it must be organic if assimilated. I do not doubt that investigation would show those 60 per cent of
Hereford school children who, according to Dr. Taylor's survey had no
decayed teeth in their mouths, had plenty of raw milk to drink,
especially during their one to eighth year. The 40 per cent who had
some decayed teeth did not get enough raw milk during their tooth-
formative ages.
When Dr. Weston Price of Cleveland fed cream from a Deaf
Smith County dairy to children whose teeth had begun to decay
prematurely, the decay soon stopped. Read his book, "Nutrition and
Physical Degeneration" (pp.260-75)
What did it? Not fluorine in the drinking water, but the sum total
of food elements, including vitamins or activators contained in that
cream. Those cows had grazed on lush green wheat growing in our
Deaf Smith County mineralized soil. Undoubtedly, cow's milk
provides the mineral elements needed to build sound teeth in the form
easiest assimilated; but Dr. Price also fed his patients on our Deaf
Smith County whole wheat, freshly ground.

CHAPTER 30.

FALLACY: A CLEAN TOOTH NEVER
DECAYS

When I was a young dentist back in Alabama, many a practioner
would display in his waiting room a sign which ran something like this:
"A clean tooth does not decay."
Somehow I never got around to hanging up one of the signs in
my office at Albertville. About that time, the makers and distributors
of tooth powder, tooth paste and mouth wash took up the slogan.
"They played it up in advertising and still do. As a result, you hardly
ever encounter the sign in a dentist's office today. Most dentists, I
suspect, took down the sign because they could not brook the
advertisers' extravagant, unfounded claims. Even so, the profession
still sanctions the theory that a toot h which is kept constantly clean—
by brushing after every meal— will be free of the germs which bore into the enamel and cause decay.
Consequently, a new licensed technologist has entered the
profession—the dental hygienist. Her job is to keep the patient's
mouth clean and thereby, theoretically, prevent tooth decay. I say that
cleaning teeth has nothing to do with whether they decay or not. Don't get me wrong, reader. I believe in clean mouths as strongly as
anybody; but for social and hygienic reasons, not to prevent tooth
decay. That requires body-building, which means tooth-building, food.
To cite an instance. Some years ago a patient came into my office
from 20 miles west. The old fellow had never used a tooth brush in his
life. He had the dirtiest mouth I ha d ever seen. His teeth were thickly
covered with tartar, scales and caked food particles. Mr. G. P. was not
in trouble when he came to see me. His wife had persuaded him that
he ought to have his teeth cleaned whether they needed it or not.
When I had cleared that lifetime accumulation of foreign matter off
his teeth—a full day's work—to my astonishment, I had uncovered as
fine a set of teeth as I had run across in 50 years' practice. My
questioning brought out that during his?? odd years, Mr. G. P. had
lived mostly off of the land. He at e fresh vegetables out of the home
garden, beef and bacon from off the range and wild game whenever he could shoot it. He ate a lot of his vegetables raw and raw fruit when he
could get it


ats in the form of e.g. avocados, nuts, (desalted) olives and coconuts.

Why Eat Less Carbohydrates?

Rosedale: "The actual rate of aging can be modulated by insulin... We should be living to be 130, 140 years
old routinely." "What is the minimum daily requirement for carbohydrates? ZERO." ".Those high complex
carbohydrate diets are nothing but high sugar diets, and your body is just going to store it as saturated
fat." "Animal proteins are fine and are good for you, but not the ones that are fed grains." "Your primary
fuel should be coming from fat."

The re -discovery of the tremendous improvements which occur in ALL health problems with the use of a diet which is reduced
in the use of carbohydrates, is one of the most notable of recent years.
The following article indi cates the importance of carbohydrates/sugar as a factor of disease. The author makes many bold
statements, for example: "Insulin is by far your biggest poison", "You can consider saturated fat to be second generation
carbohydrates", "Medicine really isn' t a science, it is a business"

Dr. Bass will soon republish articles by the natural hygienist Arnold DeVries from the 1950's about the carbohydrate -problem.
Why? Because the problem with carbohydrates, raw and cooked, needs to be discussed in today's Natu ral Hygiene.
How is the following article different from Natural Hygiene? E.g. there is no mention of the importance of raw foods, sequent ial
eating and other energy -saving measures for lifespan/health increases - except for the mentioning of minimal (low -calorie)
diets.
But note this quote: "...don't do anything, go home and sleep, let your body heal itself." Interesting - it looks like a few medical
doctors now have moved relatively close to the hygienic standpoint on healing.

Insulin and Its Metabolic Effects
By Ron Rosedale, M.D.

Let's tal k about a couple of case histories. These are actual patients that I've seen; let's start with patient A. This patient who we
will just call patient A saw me one afternoon and said that he had literally just signed himself out of the hospital "AMA," o r
against medical advice. Like in the movies, he had ripped out his IV's.

The next day he was scheduled to have his second by -pass surgery. He had been told that if he did not follow through with this
by-pass surgery, within two weeks he would be dead.

........ To make a long story short, this gentleman right now is on no insulin. I first saw him three and a half years ago. He play s
golf four or five times a week. He is on no medications whatsoever, he has no chest pain, and he has not had any surgery. He

started an organization called "Heart Support of America" to educated people that there are alternatives to by -pass surgery that
have nothing to do with surgery or medication.
"They have known since the fifties that if you restrict calories but maintain nutrition...... animals can live
between thirty and two -hundred percent longer."

........ And the common therapies for osteo porosis are drugs, and the common therapy for calaudication is surgery. For cancer
reduction there is nothing. But all of these have a common cause.

The same cause as three major avenues of research in aging. One is called caloric restriction. There are t housands of studies
done since the fifties on caloric restriction. They restrict calories of laboratory animals.

They have known since the fifties that if you restrict calories but maintain a high level of nutrition, called "C.R.O.N.'s:" Caloric
restricti on with optimal nutrition, or adequate nutrition, which would be CRAN"S, these animals can live anywhere between thirty
and two -hundred percent longer depending on the species.
"Then there are Centenarian studies.... They all have low triglycerides for th eir age. And they all have
relatively low insulin."

Then there are Centenarian studies. There are three major centenarian studies going on around the world. They are trying to
find the variable that would confer longevity among these people. Why do centen arians become centenarians? Why are they so
lucky? Is it because they have low cholesterol, exercise a lot, live a healthy, clean life?

Well the longest recorded known person who has ever lived, Jean Calumet of France who died last year at 122 years, smoked
all of her life and drank.

What they are finding on these major centenarian studies is that there is hardly anything in common among them. They have
high cholesterol and low cholesterol, some exercise and some don't, some smoke, some don't. Some ar e nasty as can be and
some nice and calm and nice. Some are ornery, but they all low sugar, relatively for their age. They all have low triglycerid es for
their age.

And they all have relatively low insulin. Insulin is the common denominator in everything I've just talked about. They way to treat
cardiovascular disease and the way I treated my stepfather, the way I treated the high risk cancer patient, and osteoporosis,
high blood pressure, the way to treat virtually all the so -called chronic diseases of ag ing is to treat insulin itself.
"Life span is strictly a variable depending on the environment.... We know now that the variability in life
span is regulated by insulin."

The other major avenue of research in aging has to do with genetic studies of so-called lower organisms. We know the
genetics involved. We've got the entire genes mapped out of several species now, of yeast and worms. We think of life span as
being fixed, sort of.

Humans kind of have an average life span of seventy -six, and the max imum life -span was this French lady at one -hundred and
twenty -two. In humans we feel it is relatively fixed, but in lower forms of life it is very plastic. Life span is strictly a variabl e
depending on the environment. They can live two weeks, two years, o r sometimes twenty years depending on what they want
themselves to do, which depends very much on the environment.

If there is a lot of food around they are going to reproduce quickly and die quickly, if not they will just bide their time u ntil
conditions  are better. We know now that the variability in life span is regulated by insulin.

..... If there is a single marker for lifespan, as they are finding in the centenarian studies, it is insulin, specifically, insulin
sensitivity.

How sensitive are your c ells to insulin. When they are not sensitive, the insulin levels go up. Who has heard of the term insulin
resistance?
"We know now that aging is a disease..... all the so -called chronic diseases of aging are symptoms."

Insulin resistance is the basis of all of the chronic diseases of aging, because the disease itself is actually aging.
We know now that aging is a disease. The other case studies that I mentioned, cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, obesity,
diabetes, cancer, all the so -called chronic dis eases of aging, auto -immune diseases, those are symptoms.

 copyright © Dr. Stanley S. Bass   (718) 648 -1500    www.drbass.com  80

...... Now, the medical profession is continuously segregating more and more symptoms into diseases, they call the symptoms
diseases..... It is the same thing with cholesterol.
If you have high cholesterol it is called hypercholesterolemia. Hypercholesterolemia has become the code for the disease when
it is only the symptom. So they treat that symptom and what are they doing to the heart? Messing it up.
"... the problem is that medicine really isn't a science, it is a business"

So what you have to do if you are going to treat any disease is you need to get to the root of the disease. If you keep pulli ng a
dandelion out by it's leaves, you are not going to get very far. But the problem is that we don't know what the root is, or w e
haven't.

They know what it is in many other areas of science, but the problem is that medicine really isn't a science, it is a b usiness, but I
don't want to get in to that, we can talk hours on that. But if you really look at the root of what is causing it, we can use  that cold
as a further example.
"The patient might see someone else more knowledgeable who will say no, you caught a virus, don't do
anything


 a substantial negative impact on people's fitness,"he says, "they are likely to have infectious causes."
Although its fitness-reducing dimensions are difficult to calculate, the ordinary stomach ulcer is the
best recent example of a common ailment for which an infectious agent -- to the surprise of almosteveryone -- turns out to be responsible.
When I visited him one afternoon, Ewald pulled off his shelves a standard medical textbook from
the 1970s and opened the heavy volume to the entry on peptic ulcers. We squinted together at agray field of small print punctuated by subheads in boldface. Under "Etiology" we scanned severalpages: environmental factors... smoking... diet... ulcers caused by drugs... aspirin ... psychonomic factors
... lesions caused by stress. In the omniscient tone of medical texts, the authors concluded, "It is
plausible to hypothesize a wealth of these factors.... " There was no mention of infection at all.
In 1981 Barry J. Marshall was training in internal medicine at the Royal Perth Hospital, in Western
Australia, when he became interested in incidences of spiral bacteria in the stomach lining. Thebacteria were assumed to be irrelevant to ulcer pathology, but Marshall and J. R. Warren, ahistopathologist who had previously observed the bacteria, reviewed the records of patients whosestomachs were infected with large numbers of these bacteria. They noticed that when one patientwas treated with tetracycline for unrelated reasons, his pain vanished, and an endoscopy revealedthat his ulcer was gone.
An article by Marshall and Warren on their culturing of "unidentified curved bacilli" appeared in
the British medical journal The Lancet in 1984, and was followed by other suggestive studies. For
years, however, the medical establishment remained deaf to their findings, and around the worldulcer patients continued to dine on bland food, swear off stress, and swill Pepto-Bismol. FinallyMarshall personally ingested a batch of the spiral bacteria and came down with painful gastritis,thereby fulfilling all of Koch's postulates.
There is now little doubt that Helicobacter pylori, found in the stomachs of a third of adults in the
United States, causes inflammation of the stomach lining. In 20 percent of infected people it
produces an ulcer. Nearly everyone with a duodenal ulcer is infected. H. pylori infections can be
readily diagnosed with endoscopic biopsy tests, a blood test for antibodies, or a breath test. In 90percent of cases the infections can be cured in less than a month with antibiotics. (Unfortunately,many doctors still haven't gotten the news. A Colorado survey found that 46 percent of patientsseeking medical attention for ulcer symptoms are never tested for H. pylori by their physicians.)
Antibiotics Against Heart Disease?
EWALD closed the medical textbook on his knee. "This was
published twenty years ago," he said. "If we looked up'atherosclerosis' in a textbook from ten years ago, we'd
find the same kind of things -- stress, lifestyle, lots about diet,nothing about infection."
Heart disease is now being linked to Chlamydia pneumoniae, a
newly discovered bacterium that causes pneumonia andbronchitis. The germ is a relative of Chlamydia trachomatis, which
causes trachoma, a leading cause of blindness in parts of theThird World. C. trachomatis is perhaps more familiar to us as a
sexually transmitted disease that, left untreated in women, canlead to scarring of the fallopian tubes, pelvic inflammatorydisease, ectopic pregnancy, and tubal infertility.
Pekka Saikku and Maija Leinonen, a Finnish husband-and-wife
team who have evoked comparisons to the Curies, discovered the new type of chlamydial infectionin 1985, though its existence was not officially recognized until 1989. Saikku and Leinonen foundthat 68 percent of Finnish patients who had suffered heart attacks had high levels of antibodies to C.
pneumoniae, as did 50 percent of patients with coronary heart disease, in contrast to 17 percent of the
healthy controls. "We were mostly ignored or laughed at," Saikku recalls.
While examining coronary-artery tissues at autopsy in 1991, Allan Shor, a pathologist in
Johannesburg, saw "pear-shaped bodies" that looked like nothing he'd ever seen before. Hementioned his observations to a microbiologist colleague, who had read about a new species ofchlamydia with a peculiar pear shape. The colleague referred Shor to an expert on the subject, Cho-Chou Kuo, of the University of Washington School of Public Health, in Seattle. After Shor shippedKuo the curious coronary tissue, Kuo found that the clogged coronary arteries were full of C.
pneumoniae. Before long, others were reporting the presence of live C. pneumoniae in arterial plaque
fresh from operating tables. Everywhere the bacterium lodges, it appears to precipitate the samegrim sequence of events: a chronic inflammation, followed by a buildup of plaque that occludes theopening of the artery (or, in the case of venereal chlamydia, a buildup of scar tissue in the fallopiantube). Recently a team of pathologists at MCP-Hahnemann School of Medicine, in Philadelphia,found the same bacterium in the diseased sections of the autopsied brains of patients who had hadlate-onset Alzheimer's disease: it was present in seventeen of nineteen Alzheimer's patients and inonly one of nineteen controls.
By the mid-1990s a radical new view was emerging of atherosclerosis as a chronic, lifelong arterial
infection. "I am confident that this will reach the level of certainty of ulcer and H. pylori, " says
Saikku, who estimates that at least 80 percent of all coronary heart disease is caused by thebacterium. Big questions remain, of course. Studies show that about 50 percent of U.S. adults carryantibodies to C. pneumoniae -- but how many will develop heart disease? Even if heart patients can
be shown to have antibodies to C. pneumoniae, and even if colonies of the bacteria are found living
and breeding in diseased coronary arteries, is it certain that the germ caused the damage? Perhaps
it's an innocent bystander, as some critics have proposed; or a secondary, opportunistic infection.
But suppose that a Chlamydia pneumoniae infection during childhood can initiate a silent, chronic
infection of the coronary arteries, resulting in a "cardiovascular event" fifty years later. Couldantibiotics help to address the problem?
A few early studies suggest they might. Researchers in Salt Lake City infected white rabbits with C.
pneumoniae, fed them a modestly cholesterol-enhanced diet, killed them, and found thickening of the
thoracic aortas, in contrast to the condition of uninfected controls fed the same diet. Additionally,treatment of infected rabbits with antibiotics in the weeks following infection prevented thethickening. Saikku and colleagues reported a similar finding, also in rabbits. Coronary patients inEurope who were treated with azithromycin not only showed a decline in antibodies and othermarkers of infection but in some studies had fewer subsequent cardiovascular events than patientswho were given placebos. (These findings are preliminary; in a few years we may know more. Thefirst major clinical trial is under way in the United States, sponsored by the National Institutes ofHealth and the Pfizer Corporation: 4,000 heart patients at twenty-seven clinical centers will be giveneither the antibiotic azithromycin or a placebo and followed for four years to gauge whether theantibiotic affects the incidence of further coronary events.)
Smoking, stress, cholesterol, and heredity all play a role in heart disease. But imagine if our No. 1
killer -- with its vast culture of stress-reduction theories, low-fat diets, high-fiber cereals, cholesterol-lowering drugs, and high-tech bypass surgery -- could in many instances be vanquished with anantibiotic. Numerous precedents exist for long-smoldering bacterial infections with consequencesthat appear months or years later. Lyme disease, leprosy, tuberculosis, and ulcers have a similarcourse. Ewald is confident that the association of C. pneumoniae and heart disease is real. He doesn't
believe that the germ is an innocent bystander. "It reminds you a lot of gonorrhea in the 1890s," hesays. "When they saw the organism there, people said, 'Well, we don't know if it's really causing thedisease, or is just living there.' Every month the data are getting stronger. This is a smoking gun, justlike Helicobacter. "
Evolutionary Byways
IHAVE a motto," Gregory Cochran told me recently. "'Big old diseases are
infectious.' If it's common, higher than one in a thousand, I get suspicious.And if it's old, if it has been around for a while, I get suspicious."
The fact that Ewald has dared to conceive of a big theory for the medical
sciences owes much to Cochran's contributions. A forty-five-year-old Ph.D.physicist who lives in Albuquerque with his wife and three small children,Cochran makes a living doing contract work on advanced optical systems forweaponry and other devices. Whereas Ewald is an academic insider, withdepartment meetings to attend and honors theses to monitor, Cochran is asolo player, with an encyclopedic mind (he is a former College Bowl

 side with the right knee drawn  up toward the chin for 30 minutes
before going to sleep. This encourages the oil to d rain from the stomach, helping contents
of the gall bladder and/or liver to move into the s mall intestine.
2.  If one feels quite ill during the night, another st rong coffee enema with one-fourth (1/4)
cup of Epsom salt dissolved in it may be taken.
3.  If there is a strong feeling of nausea the followin g morning, one should try to remain in
bed until it subsides somewhat. Vomiting should not  be forced.
4.  Upon arising, one must take another strong coffee e nema with Epsom salt in it or, 1 hour
before breakfast, take 1 tablespoon of Epsom salt d issolved in 1 to 3 ounces of warm
mineral water, RO filtered water or distilled water.  5.  If one continues to feel nauseous or very sore in t he upper abdomen even after the enema,
a light diet of sprouts, fruit (raw or steamed), yo gurt or kefir, and freshly extracted
vegetable juices (especially with beet greens in th em) should be resumed. If one finds
that the Metabolic Formulas cause discomfort immedi ately after the flush, they may be
omitted for three days.
Helpful Hints
1.  Taking one hydrochloric acid tablet at bedtime will  help reduce any nausea during the
night.
2.  If you have a tendency to get nauseated from the oi l, take 2 tablespoons of Aloe Vera
juice after your doses of oil and citrus juice.
3.  Placing a hot water bottle over the liver area (und er the right ribcage) during the night
also helps relieve nausea.
Note:  One should not be frightened by the above referenc es to nausea, vomiting, soreness of the
abdomen, etc. Chances are that the symptoms won’t b e severe enough to cause vomiting or
soreness of the abdomen, as this happens only very rarely. Many people complete this procedure
with minimal discomfort, and nearly everyone feels much better after completing it. Flushing the
liver and gall bladder in the manner described (if the gall bladder is present) stimulates and
cleans these organs as no other process does.
Oftentimes, persons suffering for years from gallst ones, lack of appetite, biliousness, backaches,
nausea, and a host of other complaints will find ga llstone-type objects in the stool the day
following the flush. These objects are light to dar k green in color, very irregular in shape,
gelatinous in texture, and of sizes varying from "g rape seed" size to "cherry" size. If there seems
to be a large number of these objects in the stool,  the flush should be repeated in 2 weeks.
Fasting
After The Liver-Gall Bladder Flush a fast may be st arted. The fast should last one or two days.
We are now giving the body a rest and an opportunit y to cleanse itself of much waste on the
individual cell level. Each day of the fast one qua rt of fresh carrot juice and one pint of celery
juice should be taken, along with all the RO filter ed or distilled water desired. It is best to dilute
the fresh juice with equal parts RO filtered or dis tilled water.
It is important to remember that unless sufficient fluids are taken the poisons become
concentrated and are not eliminated in the natural way.
Cleansing The Small Intestine
If there were only one kind of pill that would help  everybody, the cancer patient or otherwise, it
would be "Okra-Pepsin-E3" made by Standard Process,  Inc. It would probably do the nation’s
health more good than any other one pill. It digest s the mucus that coats the walls of many
people’s small intestine. Certain foods, such as pa steurized milk and many cooked foods, cause
the mucus buildup on the wall of the small intestin e (raw foods do not cause this mucus buildup). The mucus coats the villi on the wall of the small intestine. The villi are like tiny fingers that
stick out from the intestinal wall to absorb nutrie nts from the digested food, which is primarily
liquid. The mucus on the villi blocks the absorptio n of nutrients from the food. Sometimes the
mucus gets so thick and tough it is almost like a p lastic film. Almost no nutrition can get through
to the body. A person with a severe mucus buildup c ould take $1,000.00 worth of supplements a
month along with a good diet and still get almost n o nutritional value from them. He or she
would be starving and therefore would want to eat m ore food including protein. That would lead
to more of the pancreatic enzymes being used to dig est the protein even though it could not be
properly absorbed. When all the pancreatic enzymes are used up, there are none left in the blood
to destroy cancer cells.
The okra is a very sticky, gooey, vegetable materia l. It tends to stick the pepsin enzyme to the
mucus on the intestinal wall long enough to digest some of the mucus. The E-3 is a powerful
tissue repair factor. It was originally developed f or the patient with stomach ulcers or colitis.
If the Okra-Pepsin-E3 capsules are taken for a few days to several weeks, one after each meal
(reduce the amount of capsules if diarrhea occurs),  the mucus will gradually be digested. The
blood can then receive more nutrients from the food, even if it is from a poor diet. Then, once a
year, take the Okra-Pepsin-E3 capsules again for a few days or a week to keep the mucus from
building back up.
The mucus blockage varies with different people. So metimes it blocks minerals and larger
molecules only, while in other people it partially blocks all nutrients.
While taking the Okra-Pepsin-E3 capsules people who  have heavily mucus-coated intestines
might find mucus coming out with their stool, convo luted like the intestines. Dr. Kelley has had
people who have been taking the capsules call him t o say that they think they have just passed
their intestines and what should they do? (He assur es them it wasn’t their intestines; it was ropes
— or tubes — of mucus!)
One 37-year-old patient called Dr. Kelley to report  that the Okra-Pepsin-E3 capsules worked a
miracle by relieving reoccurring pain that she had suffered with for years. (The pain would come
and go apparently without cause and felt like brick s were pressing against her internal organs and
lower back and at the same time her right side and leg would feel numb.) On the morning of the
eighth day, after taking one Okra-Pepsin-E3 capsule  with each meal for a week, she spent 45
minutes sweating, straining and pushing to have a b owel movement, and when it finally came
out she could hardly believe what she saw — long, i ntertwined black ropes (or collapsed tubes)
of mucus filled the toilet! She feels lighter now a nd hasn’t had the pain since that day. (After this
bowel movement and the disappearance of her pain sh e realized that there must have been a
connection to eating a large meal and the pain — fo od passing through the intestine would push
the mucus-coated intestine onto nerves, which cause d the pain and numbness.)
The Okra-Pepsin-E3 is indicated for both underweigh t and overweight people. In both cases
nutrients are not being absorbed. Even if they are taking enzymes to digest the food they eat,
they absorb only the smaller carbohydrate molecules  while the larger protein molecules are
blocked. In underweight people the carbohydrates ar e used efficiently (burned for energy, not turned into fat), but the person becomes thin as th ey lose muscle mass from lack of protein
absorption. In overweight people the carbohydrates are not used efficiently (they are turned into
fat), and this causes the person to become overweig ht as they also lose muscle mass.
Metamucil™ (Psyllium husks), one or two tablespoons  daily, mixed with water or juice, may be
taken to sweep the mucus out of the colon once it i s broken down by the pepsin in the Okra-
Pepsin-E3 capsules.
Note: Please see Resources, page 169, to order Okra -Pepsin-E3.
Cleansing The Colon
The Coffee Enema
A high, retention enema, using coffee, should be ta ken to aid in the elimination of toxic waste
material from the body. The coffee enema should be taken daily for as long as one is on
Metabolic Medicine’s Cancer Cure Program. After 35 years, Dr. Kelley still takes his daily
enema.
The coffee enema is very stimulating to the liver a nd is the greatest aid in elimination of the
liver’s toxic wastes.
The coffee enema, besides stimulating liver detoxif ication, also has beneficial effects in cleaning
the colon. Coffee is an excellent solvent for encru sted waste accumulated along the walls of the
colon. The caffeine also directly stimulates the pe ristaltic


is tic process of getting well in mind and body at
the same time. The mind-body system, about to throw oﬀ
the cancer, should know that the process is under  way and
may begin to generate much more positive thoughts
simultaneously.
However it works, the key seems to be spontaneity.
Channeling positive attitudes into oneself as a planned
therapy has proved only haphazardly successful as a means
of ﬁghting disease. The positive input does not tend to go
very deep. Consciousness is more pervasive than medicine
gives it credit for. Even when it is ignored, however, the
silent ﬁeld of intelligence knows what is happening. It is,
after all, intelligent. Its knowledge reaches beyond buﬀers
and screens, going farther than we expect.
To illustrate: for decades, surgeons safely assum ed that
an anesthetized patient was unconscious and therefore not
inﬂuenced by what happened in the operating room. Thenit was discovered (by hypnotizing postoperative patients)
that in fact the “unconscious” mind heard every word that
was uttered during the procedure. When the surgeons said
aloud that a condition was more serious than they had
thought or had little chance of cure, the patients tended to
play out those gloomy predictions by not recovering. As a
result of these ﬁndings, which validate the idea of nocebo,
it is now standard practi ce not to make negative remarks
during surgery. The more positive the surgeon’s expressed
opinions, in fact, the more positive the outcom e for the
patient.
It would be even bette r to use this highly sensitive,
extremely powerful intell igence for the patient’s cure. The
point of diving into the region of the quantum body is to
change the blueprint itself, rather than to wait for
symptoms on the surfa ce, which will then have to be
manipulated using medicine. The case of the woman with
bone pain is a reminder that the buﬀer that keeps us so
securely above the line, away from our deeper selves, is
always made by us. It is therefore subject to revision at any
time. We constantly build patterns of intelligence and look
through them to tell us what is real. If we see pain, there is
pain, but if we don’t, the pain will be gone.
Nature did not make us ignorant of our deeper selves.
Anesthetized patients have known what was going on all
along, presum ably since the beginnings of modern  surgery
in the 1850s. The silent ﬁeld of intelligence is out of reach
by our choice, reinforced through generations of cultural
bias. Sometimes a new reality forces itself to be
recognized, and then things can shift. New patterns of
intelligence arise; a deep transformation can then take
place, but it is not essentially diﬀerent from the mind-body
transformations we have already been talking about.
Normal reality is like a spell—a very necessary one, since
we must live by habits, routines, and codes that we take forgranted. The problem arises when you can make the spell
but not break it. If you could dive, this very minute, below
your everyday reality to its source, you would certainly
have a remarkable experience. The psychologist Abraham
Maslow, who was a pioneer in studying the positive aspects
of the human personality, gave a classic description of the
experience of the deep self: “These moments were of pure,
positive happiness, when all doubts, all fears, all
inhibitions, all tensions, all weaknesses, were left behind.
Now self-consciousness was lost. All separateness and
distance from the world disappeared….”
Although such experiences are rare—Maslow termed
them “peak experiences ” for that reason—they have a
curative power that goes far beyond their brief duration,
which may be a few days or just a few hours. Maslow
records that two of his patients, one a long-term depressive
who had often considere d suicide, the other a person who
suﬀered from severe anxiety attacks, were both
immediately and permanently cured after spontaneously
falling into such experiences (for each it happened only
once).
Maslow also talks about the reconciliation with life that
people have realized through these moments: “They felt
one with the world, fused with it, really belonging to it
instead of being outside looking in. (One subject said, for
instance, ‘I felt like a member of a family, not like an
orphan.’)”
Any sudden  revelation of a deeper reality carries
enormous power with it—one taste alone can make life
undeniably worthwhile. Maslow’s patients recognized this
inner power as something quite outside the ordinary. It is
not energy or strength, genius or insight, but it underlies
all of these. It is life power in its purest form. Maslow’s
understanding stopped short at the critical moment—he
was never able actually to give anyone a peak experience—yet he was fascinated by these events that transcend
normal life. In 1961, after several decades of writing and
thinking about the subject, he concluded that it was indeed
normal life and not the mystical that he had been
observing:
“The little that I had ever read about mystic experiences
tied them in with religion, with visions of the supe rnatural.
And, like most scientists,  I had sniﬀed at them in disbelief
and considered it all nonsense, maybe hallucinations,
maybe hysteria—almost surely pathological. But the people
telling me about these experiences were not such people—
they were the healthiest people!”
Because he detected these experiences in fewer than 1
percent of the population, Maslow viewed them as
accidents or as moments of grace. I believe that they were
glimpses into a ﬁeld that underlies everyone’s life, but
which has remained elusive. The implication is that we
should dive very deep if we want to transcend normal
reality. We are in search of an experience that will reshap e
the world.
—
Finding the silent gap that ﬂashes in between our thoughts
seems relatively easy, but because it ﬂashes by, a tiny gap
is not a doorway. The quantum  body is not separate from us
—it is us—ye t we are not experiencing it right now. Sitting
here, we are thinking, reading, talking, breathing,
digesting, and so on, all of which happens above the line.
Here is an analogy that brings the quantum mechanical
body into focus: Take a bar magnet and place a piece of
paper over it. Next, sprinkle iron ﬁlings on the paper and
jostle it slightly. What will emerge is a pattern of curving
lines, one inside the other, that arch from the magnet’s
north to south pole and back again. The overall design youhave made represents a map of the magnetic lines of force
that otherwise would be invisible, except that the iron
particles automatically align themselves to bring  out the
image.
In this analo gy, we see all mind-body activity above the
paper and the hidden ﬁeld of intelligence below. The iron
ﬁlings movin g around are mind-body activity, automatically
aligning with the magnetic ﬁeld, which is intelligence. The
ﬁeld is completely invisible and unknowable until it shows
its hand by moving some bits of matter around. And the
piece of paper? It is the quantum mecha nical body, a thin
screen that shows exactly what patterns of intelligence are
being manifested at the moment.
There is more to this simple comparison than you might
at ﬁrst suppose. Without the paper to separate the two, the
magnet and the iron could not interact in any orderly way.
Try bringing a magnet close to some iron ﬁlings. Instead of
forming regularly spaced lines, the ﬁlings simp ly clump
shapelessly onto the magnet’s surface. With the paper in
place, not only do you have an image of the magnetic ﬁeld,
but if you rotate the magnet you can watch the iron ﬁlings
move to mirror the new ﬁeld that has been created. If you
didn’t know that there was a magnet, you would swear that
the iron was alive, becaus e it seems to move by itself. But it
is really the hidden ﬁeld that is generating these lifelike
appearances.
There you have a true picture of how the bodymind
actually relates to the ﬁeld of intelligence. The two remain
separated, but the division is invisible and has no thickness
whatever. It is just a gap. The only way one knows that the
quantum level even exists is that images and patterns keep
cropping up everywhere  in the body. Mysterious furrows
run across the surface of the brain; beautiful swirls, exactly
like the center of a sunﬂower, show up in molecules of
DNA; the inside of the femur contains marvelous  webs ofbone tissue, like the intricate supports of a cantilever
bridge.
Wherever you look, there is no chaos, and that is the
strongest proof of all that there really is a hidden
physiology. Intelligence turns chaos into patterns. There is
incredible chaos implied in the idea of having to process
billions of chemical messages every minute, yet in reality,
the complexity of the mind-body system is misleading: what
emerges from our brains are coherent images, just as a
coherent newspaper photograph


ity. Your body is alive withunknown abilities, but it looks to you for direction.To create a new body, you must understand that you can change your body in consciousness. When youmake a shift in consciousness about how you perceive your body and the assumptions you have about it,changes are manifested in your physical body.To make a change you must ﬁrst have the intent, and then you must follow through with subtle action.Subtle action works by:o Going inside and making your intention knowno Believing in getting resultso Not resisting the process of changeo Repeating the subtle action of intention until the change has been accomplishedIt is natural for the body to revert to old patterns of behavior when going through change. Rather than getfrustrated or stressed by this, take note of negative impressions and memories. By looking, watching andbeing aware, not judging, rejecting nor condemning, you will begin to heal.Always remember that the real you is separate from your body. The real you shapes your body which hasthe potential to be a ﬂowing river of love, joy and wisdom, effortlessly ﬂowing in perfect balance with theentire universe
 EXERCISES FOR LESSON 31. The next thing you think, the next action you take, will either create a new possibility for you or it willrepeat the past. Where does the universe want you to go next? 2, Your body already knows that its purpose in life isn’t physical. Think about your body in a new way - notas a mechanistic machine, but as a vehicle to give and receive love, compassion, understanding.3. The body’s physical limitations can suddenly and unexpectedly disappear.Have you ever had an experience that transcended your body’s physical limitations? What was it and what did it mean to you?  4. Using the above steps for subtle action, select one of these qualities of love that you would like tomanifest in your life and in your body -- compassion, kindness, generosity, joy, surrender –and spendthree minutes settling into a personal meaning of the term for you, perhaps reﬂecting on a past experience that encapsulates the experience for you. Feel that invisible force of that love in you. Align yourself with it and allow yourself to expand into andbecome one with it.Anchor the experience with the cognition that you are that quality of love.Then express that quality of love to someone with actions and words.LESSON 4: Your Real Body Is Energy

Your cells constantly move back and forth across the border between the visible world of things and theinvisible world of energy. Every day you are exposed to a wide array of energy from other people,situations and circumstance - nervous energy, loving energy, healthy energy, excitement, negative energy.Your body is in a healthy state when its energy is in a healthy state. All harm caused to the body istraceable to distorted energy in your life.Eastern spiritual traditions understand this ﬂow of invisible energy as Qi, prana or shakti. The balancedand unrestricted ﬂow of this energy is seen as basic to true health. Everything in our environment has anunseen energetic value that impacts us toward balance or imbalance, whether we realize it or not.QUIZ: How Efﬁcient Is Your Energy?A forest throws away all its energy when it burns down. You and I parse our energy intohow we use time, emotions, intelligence, awareness, and creativity, since all of theseaspects require subtle energy. Much more than burning calories is at stake. Energy mustbe considered holistically, because when body and soul are aligned, every aspect of life isaffected.To get a better idea of what energy efﬁciency means, take the following proﬁle quiz. Foreach item, rate yourself from 1 to 3 according to how well it describes you.3 – This is me almost all the time2 – This is me some of the time1 - This is me a little of the time_ I leave work on time every day. I don’t stay late more than one day a week._ I get up and go to sleep at the same time every day._ My desk at work is organized. There’s not a pile of back work._ I don’t procrastinate. I believe that the best way to handle unpleasant tasks is to facethem right away._ I don’t harbor negativity for a long time. Keeping score and waiting for payback isn’tmy style._ My closet is organized. I can get at anything I want easily._ My refrigerator isn’t full of leftovers. I’m not surprised by old fruits and vegetables Iforgot I had._ I know where I stand emotionally with the people in my life. We are open and clearwith each other._ I know my weaknesses and have a plan for overcoming them. I will be strongertomorrow than I was yesterday._ I use money well. I don’t hoard and I don’t spend recklessly. I am not worried about mycredit card balances._My salary ﬁts my needs for now and the future. I am a good ﬁnancial planner._ My yard is kept up in all seasons. (If you don’t have a yard, substitute patio, balcony,house plants, or personal environment)_ I keep ahead of my housekeeping. I’m not faced with accumulated dust and dirt that’spiled up for weeks._ When I go shopping, I come back with what I need. I rarely have to run back because Iforgot something._ I keep up with how everyone in my family is doing. I have a good idea of where theyare in their lives._ I don’t have to rush at the last minute to get things done. I am good at scheduling andbalancing my time._ I feel that there’s a good balance between work and play in my life. I’m having fun andgetting things done._ TOTAL SCORELooking at your score:41 – 51 Points: You are leading an efﬁcient life and have a good chance of feelingcomfortable, contented and in control. There are no drastic imbalances in how you useyour time and energy. Each aspect of your existence is given a good amount of attention.36 – 42 Points: Your life is mostly under control and runs along well enough. You haveminor areas of neglect, however, and there are times when you feel a little overwhelmedby all the things left undone. If you look closely, there are aspects of your life where youknow you could be more efﬁcient, using your time and energy better. Attending to thoseaspects now will increase your sense of comfort and contentment.26 – 35 Points: Your life is inefﬁcient and is getting more so. You have a sense that youare treading water rather than getting ahead. Too much is out of your control, and yourability to cope with everyday challenges is only adequate. To begin to feel comfortable,you will have to discipline yourself and change your habits. Look realistically at yourinefﬁcient ways, because one or the other – sloppiness, disorganization, procrastination,denial, impulsiveness – is draining your energy.17 – 25 Points: Your life is barely your own because so much is disorganized and out ofyour control. Daily life is a struggle to keep things together, and most days you feel thatyou are losing. On the periphery something very wrong is probably happening. You arebeing held back either psychologically or y bad circumstances. To get back on track,outside professional help is needed.As you can see, energy gets diverted into dozens of areas in your life. When people ﬁndthemselves struggling, they are squandering their energies. Two solutions are available:you can increase the ﬂow of subtle energy or you can use what you have more efﬁciently.The best way to increase your supply of subtle energy is to stop blocking it. The best wayto use the energy you have more efﬁciently is to expand your awareness. The great secretof awareness, as we saw, is that it can accomplish anything while doing almost nothing.The model for the body is always the soul, and the soul uses no energy at all. We’ll godeeper into this by seeing how energy gets blocked and distorted. There is no reason whyyou can’t receive all the energy your soul has to offer and use it for the greatest beneﬁtfor you. (Taken from the book Reinventing the Body, Resurrecting the Soul By DeepakChopra, Published By Harmony)
 EXERCISES FOR LESSON 41. Think of all the different types of energy from other people you are exposed to during youraverage day. Consider what kinds of energy patterns (positive and negative) you are making in your bodyfrom these various energies. Write down an intention choosing to expose your body to positive, healing and lovingenergy. 2. Reﬂect on a past situation where you can see how prolonged grief, anxiety, fear or depressiondirectly impacted your physical health. Conversely, remember a time of enthusiasm, passion, or being inlove during which you felt the buoyancy of that energy animate and strengthen your physical health. 3. Evaluate the following basic areas of life and answer whether they are supporting your health andbalance or not.· Food / diet· Physical activity / exercise· Home environment· Work environment· Career· Sleep· Partnership relationship· Family relationships· Friendships· Work relationships· Interests/ books / TV / websites / entertainmentConsider the areas of your life where the energy is blocked, distorted or imbalanced and use the subtleaction of the body as ﬂowing energy to correct the imbalance in those areas, making the energy efﬁcientand harmonious.(Reminder: Subtle action: 1) gentle intention 2) commitment and trust 3) ease and openness 4) repeat until effect achieved.)For example, if your home environment is not generating positive energy in your life,


osis’ (also spelled leucocytosis). Leukocytosis
generally indicates an infection, inflammation, tissue damage or
presence of toxins. Leukemia is a for m of leukocytosis.  22
 Dr Paul Kouchakoff made the most detailed study of this phenomenon
which was presented 1930 to the First International Congress of
Microbiology in Paris. He found that leukocytosis does not happen after
eating raw food, and can also be p revented in cooked food by the
addition of at least 10% of fresh, raw food, see www.conscious -
cook.com/dr -paul-kouchakoff -the-influe nce-of-food-cooking -on-the-
blood -formula -of-man
The higher the food has been heated, the stronger is its negative effect
on the immune system. Processed foods and synthetic ingredients cause
an even stronger response than cooked whole foods. Up to a certa in
critical temperature, which is different for different foods but generally
about 90°C, no leukocytosis occurs. Amazingly, even water heated over
87°C causes leukocytosis. Furthermore, the quantity of heated food does
not matter. Even 50 mg has the same effect as a much larger amount.
My interpretation of this phenomenon is that it cannot be caused by the
destruction of enzymes in cooking, because then heated water would not
react. Therefore,  I believe that it is caused by the lack of bioenergy in
food he ated above its critical temperature. In addition to adding raw food,
cooked food may be re -energised by exposing it to energised water,
sunshine, magnets, crystal or pyramid energy, but that has not yet been
investigated. All of this is completely ignored by conventional research.
A good way of using vegetables is to blend or juice them, sip the juice
raw with, before and after the meal, and cook the residue (if it is not too
stringy). A high -speed blender may be best. This method is good for
leaves, carrot s, beets, potatoes, sweet potatoes, pumpkin/squash and
similar veggies, and needs only a very short cooking time.
Low Carbohydrate Diet
As Candida needs carbohydrates as food, a good way to reduce its
activity, especially in the intestinal tract, is to go for one to two weeks on
a low carbohydrate diet. This is best done immediately before and during
the first part of the intestinal cleanse. This will keep blood sugar levels
low and restrict fungal growth in other parts of the body.  23
 Eat mainly meat, poultry, fish, eggs and protein powders such as
spirulina, wheatgrass powder, whey protein isolate (not concentrate!)
and possibly pea protein isolate. The healthiest way is to use organic,
grass -fed, or free -range products and eat them raw, e.g. as minced  meat.
This has all the necessary enzymes and vitality for digestion.
A recommended way to predigest raw flesh food and make it microbial
safe is to soak fish or minced meat overnight or for several days in
vinegar or lemon juice. For carbohydrates use lea f vegetables and some
legumes.
Vegetarians may use mainly green vegetables, such as spinach and
those of the cabbage family, rather than potatoes and cooked root
vegetables such as carrots. However, pumpkin/squash, fresh raw carrots
and other grated or ble nded raw root vegetables as well as raw vegetable
salads are slow -digesting and highly recommended. These may be
combined with sprouted legumes, such as lentils, mung beans, green
peas and chickpeas (also called garbanzo beans).
In addition,  continue using  about 5 x 1 tablespoon of virgin coconut oil.
This helps to produce ketoacids which replace carbohydrates for energy
production. Also inform yourself about the advantages of a ketogenic diet
and what to watch out for.
Instead of or as part of the Low Carb ohydrate Diet you may also use the
Psyllium Cleanse as detailed in Chapter 5. Another possibility is a Urine
Fast. This is especially effective against Candi da and is better tolerated
than a water fast.
With cooked protein meals you may add digestive enzymes such as
bromelain and papain after the food has sufficiently cooled, possibly also
a hydrochloric acid supplement, just experiment to see what works for
you. For more details see Overcoming Candida.
Ketogenic Diet
The ketogenic diet, usually just called keto diet, is very low in carbohydrates,
high in (healthy) fat and normal in protein. It can be excellent as a 24
 Candida diet. The main problem is that individuals with defective fat
absorption and defective fat metabolism often cannot handle it. Also,  it
can be difficult to get enough vitamins and  minerals. Nevertheless, try it
if you are so inclined, it may remove the main burden of your Candida
problem. When Candida is under control it is advisable to increase again
the vegetable intake.
An easier way to start a keto diet is to gradually increas e the amount of
coconut oil in your diet. The medium -chain fatty acids in coconut oil are
oxidized in the liver to keto acids which the body can use as a
replacement for carbohydrates. As with the conventional keto diet, some
individuals with liver problem s are restricted in the amount of coconut oil
that the liver can handle. Therefore,  try it out by gradually increasing the
amount of coconut oil and then remain at your highest problem -free
intake.
Finally, there is the Paleolithic Diet with cooked or raw  meat ( Raw
Paleolithic Diet) which has helped many individuals to overcome
Candida problems. A main problem with a diet high in meat is its high
content of inflammatory arachidonic acid, similar to linoleic acid in
polyunsaturated oils. It is also high in acidic phosphorus compounds.
This effect may be moderated by taking more sodium bicarbonate, lemon
juice, vegetables, oily fish and fish oils.
For specific Ketogenic and Paleolithic Diets see the Internet.
Raw-Food Diet
A raw -food diet is not only the most natural but also the most effective
nutritional measure for healing and rejuvenation. However,  it needs to be
adopted gradually as it can cause various cleansing reactions, and even
more important, our taste buds need t ime to adjust. While only few will
be strong enough to adopt a complete raw food diet for life, it will be good
for everyone to have occasional periods on raw foods only. By far the
most important foods to be eaten raw are proteins and lipids (fats and
oils) for their enzyme content, and fruit and vegetable juices or salads for
their bioenergy or life -force.
Most 'raw foodists' will be content to have about 90% of their food raw 25
 and be free to have some cooked food when eating out and at parties.
For detail s see: Healing Foods.
Slimming Diet
By far the best slimming diet is one based on fresh raw foods and not be
concerned with weight and scales. But few individuals seem to be able
to do this, possibly due to the Candida infection causing cravings for
sweets and grain products. Therefore,  a less drastic alternative is to
minimize conventional sweeteners and foods  based on grains or cereals.
The main cause of overweight is the inhibition of the fat metabolism by
Candida. Use the following recommendations in addition to improving the
fat metaboli sm as shown in the next section.
As a sweetener glycerine causes fewer problems than sugar as it does
not affect insulin levels, but it still provides the same calories as
carbohydrates. Prunes may be used as a sweet treat with a low impact
on the blood su gar level, and even better and suitable as a sweetener is
xylitol.
Eat mainly slow -digesting food such as proteins, unheated fats and oils,
legumes and vegetables; maximize raw food intake, lemon juice fasts
and exercise. Periodically restrict your diet t o proteins and green or low -
carb vegetables; use high -carb vegetables such as potatoes, pumpkins
(squash) and carrots only raw as in a salad. Have a slow -digesting
breakfast based on legumes, best Dahl. Avoid big meals and  have
frequent small meals and snacks instead. For details s ee Overcoming
Weight Problems.
Improving the Fat Metabolism
Acetaldehyde produced by Candida blocks the fat metabolism in the liver
and leads to pyroluria. This causes energy deficiency in the liver and a
lack of bile. The medium -chain triglycerides (MCT) in coconut oil provide
the energy for greatly improved liver  functions, provided also activated
vitamin B6 or P5P and zinc are used in addition.
The sulphur amino acid taurine has many important functions, including 26
 for the heart, immune system and blood sugar control. It is highest in
hard-working muscles, but in  this context,  it is a main ingredient in the
formation of bile. Bile is produced from combining taurine (or glycine)
with an oxidised form of cholesterol. Bile has not only the function to
emulsify fats for proper absorption but also to release toxins processed
by the liver. Less taurine means less bile and therefore higher cholesterol
levels,
