FruiticultureThe average human requires about a pound of food (dry weight) daily, varying somewhat
with the foodstuff.  Thus, an acre of bananas will, if it amounts to about 50% of the diet, support about 40 people.  At the other end of the spectrum, comparably, it requires two acres of animal products to support a single human. I n other words, bananas supply hu -
man needs not only better but they furnish about 80 times as much food per acre than does animal agriculture.
Fruits, nuts and vegetables generally supply us with some 20 to 80 times as much
food per cultivated acre than if we eat animals and animal products—and far more if Fruiticulture methods are employed.  Fruit and nut trees will grow on rough and rocky mountainous and hilly areas that cannot otherwise be cultivated.  Furthermore, ani -
mals graze poorly in such areas and cause a tremendous amount of erosion or soil loss.  Fruiticulture is feasible in all landscapes in non-polar regions, as Permaculture master Geoff Lawton has demonstrated time and time again—see: www.geofflawtononline.com/videos/.  To learn how generous tree planting can dramatically transform a land-scape and local climate, read The Man Who Planted Trees (1953) by Jean Giono.
Fruiticulture food forests can be implemented not only at farms, but in all urban and sub -
urban settings: from residential properties with lawns and woods, to city parks, to high -
way parkways, to school and hospital grounds, and all other green and empty spaces.
These will feed and beautify our world, and improve air quality and climate stability.  The gains in human and animal health would be epic!
If America were to devote as much to fruit, nut and vegetable culture as it presently de -
votes to animal culture, it would feed perhaps five times as many people as it presently
does.  The world can feed 10 to 30 times its present population, if the best use were made of our resources.  Local green economies would thrive and displace toxic junk food industries.  Disease rates and healthcare needs would plummet.  Hospitals would be nearly empty; the medical and pharmaceutical industries would become nearly obsolete.
If the world were to adopt Fruiticulture and embrace natural health education, this
could arrest and possibly reverse the impending catastrophic effects of climate change, eliminate diet-related diseases, and make the whole world a veritable Garden of Eden, a peaceful Planet of Abundance and unlimited vibrant health.  The time is ripe!

FruiticultureNo More Hunger, Poverty, Disease,
Pollution, Wars
by David Klein, Ph.D.
“You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope some day you’ll join us
And the world will be as one”
-John Lennon, Imagine
With the absence of internal toxicosis and an abundance of fruit, the true nature of hu-
mankind is more readily revealed: wise, beautiful, serene, secure, happy, loving, respect -
ful, helpful, caring, nurturing, generous, ingenious, peaceful.
Those who I’ve witnessed partaking in the Fruitarian Diet embody all of those quali -
ties, and they are all doing good things in our world.  They are successfully living the
Fruiticulture Lifestyle after departing from destructive, conventional “deathstyles” that lead the world up to this point of crisis.  We all wish that “the world will be as one” great cooperative Fruiticulture Paradise.
So, I hope that you realize that our Fruiticulture dream can become global reality—the
world is waking up to the realization that we really have no choice other than to get back to Nature.  We must expect that “wise man” (Homo sapiens) will realize that Fruiticulture is the most sensible solution for saving and transforming our world to flourishing wholeness.
I’m sure you’re familiar with the “hundredth monkey effect. ”  This effect actually saved my
life and led most of the contributors to this ebook to a Fruitarian awakening that trans-formed their health, and led to our connection.  My point is: please spread the message of Fruiticulture—please talk this idea up, plant more fruit trees, and share this ebook far and wide...for the love of all we hold dear and sacred!165
FruiticultureHow can Fruiticulture deliver the promise of no more hunger, poverty, disease, pollution
and wars?
No More HungerThere would be no hunger if local communities learned and embraced Fruiticulture.  This
would make sharing communally with those who need healthful food easy.
A proliferation of Fruiticulture fruitscapes on suburban lawns, backyards, city green
spaces, green belts, fields, highway right-of-ways, as well as the conversion of cattle, por -
cine, fowl, grain and soy feedlots, farm fields and grazing lands to diverse Fruiticulture farms with local farm stands and farmer’s markets, will feed far more people on far less land in all populated regions on our planet, in an ecologically beneficial and sustainable manner.
The variety of fruit trees that is suitable for each climate zone (except polar) is ginor -
mous and tantalizing.  Greenhouses, fruit and vegetable dehydrating, indoor seed
sprouting, and green-fueled produce transportation make winter season sustenance easy and eco-friendly.
Our #1 fuel source, simple carbohydrate, is the predominant calorie source of sweet
fruits, and natural sugars in whole plant food is what the body is actually hungry for when we are truly hungry.  The protein and fatty content of avocado, nuts and seeds easily meets


 especially antioxidants and
fatty acids like linoleic acid.
The nutritional components in grape seed
oil provide a variety of health benefits,
one of the most important being their
ability to slow down and reserve free
radical damage and reduce the risk of
disease, especially heart disease. It also
slows skin aging. Grape seed oil is a
powerful antioxidant, fifty times more
potent than vitamin E and twenty times
more effective than vitamin C in
destroying free radicals, harmful
molecules that roam the body and damage
cells.Certain components in grape seed oil can
help protect the body from sun damage,
improve vision, flexibility in the joints,
arteries and body tissue, improve blood
circulation and reduce allergic and
asthmatic symptoms by inhibiting the
formation of histamines. Many studies
have been carried out to determine the
benefits of using grape seed oil and,
today, it is used in controlling various
health problems like heart disease and
cancer and for regulating blood sugar
levels. Grape seed oil is rich in vitamins
E and C, flavonoids and beta-carotene.
Grape seed oil presumably lowers
cholesterol, especially LDL (‘bad’)
cholesterol. On the other hand, it has beenfound to increase HDL (‘good’)
cholesterol, which reduces risks of
coronary diseases. Some studies have
shown that grape seed extract may be
helpful in checking the growth of
cancerous cells in the stomach, colon,
prostate and lung. Certain compounds
found in grape seed oil are believed to
improve vision, flexibility of joints and
blood circulation.
Grape seed oil is usually colourless with
a high smoke point and is widely used in
cooking. It can be used in baking, frying,
salad dressings, marinades and sauces.
Olive OilOlive oil contains monounsaturated fat, a
healthier type of fat that can lower your
risk of heart disease by reducing the total
and LDL (‘bad’) cholesterol levels in
your blood, making it a healthier choice.
In contrast, saturated and trans fats such as
butter, animal fats, tropical oils and
partially hydrogenated oils, increase your
risk of heart disease by increasing your
total and bad cholesterol levels. All types
of oils contain monounsaturated fat, but
extra virgin or virgin olive oils are the
least processed forms, so they are the
most heart healthy. Olive oil is rich in
antioxidants like chlorophyll, carotenoids
and vitamin E. Scientists have identified a
compound in olive oil called oleuropein,which prevents the LDL cholesterol from
oxidizing. It is the oxidized cholesterol
that sticks to the wall of the arteries and
forms plaque. Replacing other fats in your
diet with olive oil can significantly lower
blood pressure and reduce the risk of
heart attack.
A study published in the January 2005
issue of
Annals of Oncology
 has
identified oleic acid, a monounsaturated
fatty acid found in olive oil, as having the
ability to reduce the effect of an oncogene
(a gene that will turn a host cell into a
cancer cell). This particular oncogene is
associated with the rapid growth of breast
cancer tumours. The conclusion of the
researchers was that oleic acid whencombined with drug therapy encouraged
the self-destruction of aggressive,
treatment-resistant
 cancer cells thereby
destroying the cancer. Olive oil has been
positively indicated in studies of prostate
and endometrial cancers as well. Unlike
other fats, which are associated with the
higher risk of colon cancer, olive oil helps
protect the cells of the colon from
carcinogens. A study published in the
November 2003 issue of
Food Chemistry
Toxicology
 suggests that the antioxidants
in olive oil reduce the amounts of
carcinogens formed when meat is cooked.
Diabetics or those at risk of diabetes are
advised to combine a low-fat,
high-
carbohydrate
 diet with olive oil. Studiesshow this combination is superior at
controlling blood sugar levels compared
to a diet that consists entirely of low-fat
meals. Adding olive oil is also linked to
lower triglyceride levels which put
diabetics at risk of heart disease. The
body uses the healthy fats in olive oil to
produce natural anti-inflammatory agents
which can help reduce the severity of both
arthritis and asthma. Un-inflamed cell
membranes are more fluid and better able
to move healthy nutrients into the cells and
move waste products out. A lower
incidence of osteoporosis and dementia is
found in areas where people consume
large quantities of olive oil.
Do not place your bottle of olive oil onthe windowsill. Light and heat are oil’s
number one enemy. Keep your olive oil in
a cool dark place, tightly sealed. Oxygen
promotes rancidity and, when exposed to
air, light or high temparatures, olive oil
goes rancid. Olive oil has a higher smoke
point than virgin and extra virgin olive
oils, which makes it ideal for cooking.
Virgin and extra virgin olive oils are best
used for salads, dressing and dips.
Palm Oil
Palm oil has long been perceived as an
unhealthy tropical oil, but it is actually a
beneficial fat source when in its natural
form. Palm oil comes from the pulp of thefruit of the Elaeis guineensis tree, also
called the African palm oil tree. It has a
red-orange colour and is popular in the
preparation of dishes native to the
Caribbean and West African countries.
Though palm oil is known for its high
saturated fat content that is implicated in
increasing the chances of heart disease, it
also has nutritional benefits. Palm oil is a
rich source of antioxidants. It is the richest
vegetable source of tocotrienols, which
are a potent source of Vitamin E. Vitamin
E strengthens the immune system, protects
skin cells from toxins and UV radiation,
and helps protect against diseases such as
cancer and blood disorders.From its reddish-orange colour, palm oil
is also a good source of beta-carotene, a
nutrient found in sweet potatoes, carrots
and other orange fruits. Beta-carotene is a
very important form of vitamin A that by
acting as an antioxidant helps protect our
body against diseases like Alzheimer’s,
cataracts, arthritis and cancers. Palm oil
also contains high-density lipoprotein
(HDL), the good type of fat that helps
protect against cholesterol. The key is to
use palm oil in moderation.
Sesame Seed Oil
Derived from the sesame seed, sesame oil
is perhaps best known as a commoningredient in Asian and East Indian
cooking. Also known as gingelly, sesame
oil has also been used for thousands of
years as a popular alternative medical
treatment in Ayurvedic and Oriental
medicines. The oil is obtained from both
raw seeds (cold pressed) and toasted
seeds, and is valued for its long shelf life
and high heat tolerance.
Historically, sesame oil has been used as
an anti-inflammatory, antiseptic and pain-
reliever in skin conditions, gum disease
and a variety of other illnesses. Modern
science now knows that sesame oil is a
powerful antioxidant, high in
polyunsaturated fats and an excellent
source of vitamin E and minerals. Sesameoil, in fact, has the fourth highest
concentration of polyunsaturated fats of
any oil. Polyunsaturated fats are thought to
be important in the prevention of illnesses
such as diabetes, heart disease, high blood
pressure, arthritis and autoimmune
disorders. Because sesame oil is a
natural, readily attainable source of these
important polyunsaturated fats as well as
because of its vitamin and antioxidant
properties, it has begun to gain the interest
of traditional western medicine. It has
been the subject of multiple clinical
studies and continues to be examined as a
potential treatment for cancer, menopause,
gum disease, high blood pressure and
heart disease.Sesame oil is known for its healing
power. When used as a massage oil, it
protects the skin from problems such as
eczema, psoriasis and blemishes. It is an
excellent emollient and is beneficial in
alleviating tension and stress. It has been
observed that people suffering from
hypertension are usually prone to anxiety,
poor circulation, nerve and bone
disorders. Thus, application of the oil
protects the body from various disorders
associated with the nervous system. It also
helps with insomnia and mental fatigue.Chapter 3
Spices
There are a lot of spices on the
market that have medicinal
benefits in their own right.
Many have been around since
ancient times and have been
used both for medicinal and
culinary purposes. It is worth
noting though that the more
spices are used on a daily basis,
the more beneficial their effects.
Also, they work better incombination as certain spices
enhance the nutritional benefits
of others, for example a
compound in black pepper
enhances the effects of other
spices such as turmeric.Aniseed
Aniseed, or Illicium verum, is a native
plant of Asia, commonly used in
traditional societies to spice food, reduce
intestinal gas, aid in digestion and act as a
powerful diuretic medicinal herb. These
aromatic seeds are used in confectionary
and


 of it."
Instead  of changing  things I would  suggest to all to identify themselves
with the  ideal they  contemplate. What would  the feeling be like were you
of too pure  eyes to behold  iniquity  if to you  all things were pure and you
were without condemnation? Contemplate  the ideal state and identify
yourself with it and  you will ascend  to the  sphere  where  you as Christ
have your natural life.
You are still in that state  where  you were before  the world  was. The  only
thing that has fallen is your concept of self. You  see the  broken parts
which really are  not broken. You  are seeing  them through distorted  eyes,
as though you  were in one  of those  peculiar  amusement gallery's where
a man walks before  a mirror and  he is elongated, yet he  is the  same man.
Or he looks into another  mirror and  he is all big  and fat. These  things
are seen today because  man is what he  is.
Toy with the  idea of perfection. Ask  no man to help  you, but let the prayer
of the  17th chapter  of the  Gospel of St. John be  your prayer. Appropriate
the state that was yours before  the world  was.
Know  the truth of the  statement, "None  have I lost save  the son of perdi -
tion." Nothing  is lost in all my holy mountain. The  only thing  that
you lose is the  belief in loss or the  son of perdition.
"And for their sake I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified
through the  truth." John 17:19
There  is no one  to change  but self. All you  need do to make men and
women holy in this world  is to make yourself holy. You  are incapable  of
seeing  anything  that is unlovely when you  establish within your own
mind's eye  the fact that you  are lovely.
It is far  better  to know  this than to know  anything  else in the  world. It
takes courage, boundless courage, because  many this night, after hav -
ing heard  this truth will still be  inclined  to blame  others for their predica -
ment. Man finds it so difficult to turn to himself, to his own consciousness
as to the  only reality. Listen to these  words:
"No man can come  to me,  except the  Father  which hath sent me to draw
him." John 6:44.
"I and  my Father  are one."  John 10:30.
"A man can receive  nothing, except it be  given him from heaven." John
More Free Books Law of Attraction Haven3:27.
"Therefore  doth my Father  love me, because  I lay down my life, that I
might take it again."
"No man taketh it from me,  but I lay it down of myself." John 10:17,18.
"You did not choose  me, I have  chosen you." My concept of myself molds
a world  in harmony with itself and  draws men to tell me  constantly by
their behavior who I am.
The most important thing  in this world  to you  is your concept of self.
When you  dislike  your environment, the  circumstances of life  and the be-
havior of men, ask  yourself, " Who   am I?" It is your answer to this ques -
tion that is the  cause  of your dislikes.
If you  do not condemn self there  will be  no man in your world  to condemn
you. If you  are living  in the  consciousness of your ideal you  will see noth -
ing to condemn. "To the  pure all things are  pure."
Now I would  like to spend  a little time making  as clear as I can what I
personally do when   I pray, what I do when I want to bring  about changes
in my world. You  will find  it interesting, and  you will find  that it works. No
one here can tell me  they cannot do it. It is so very simple  all can do it.
We are what we  imagine  we are.
This technique  is not difficult to follow, but you  must want to do it. You
cannot approach  it with the  attitude  of mind  "Oh well I'll try it." You  must
want to do it, because  the mainspring  of action is desire.
Desire  is the  mainspring  of all action. Now  what do I want? I must define
my objective. For example,  suppose  I wanted  now to be elsewhere. This
very moment I really desire  to be elsewhere. I need  not go through the
door, I need  not sit down. I need  do nothing  but stand  just where  I am
and with my eyes closed,  assume  that I am actually standing  where  I de-
sire to be. Then I remain in this state  until it has the  feeling  of reality.
Were I now  elsewhere  I could  not see the  world  as I now  see it from here.
The world  changes in its relationship  to me  as I change  my position in
space.
So I stand  right here, close  my eyes, and  imagine  I am seeing  what I
would  see were  I there. I remain in it long  enough to feel it to be  real. I
cannot touch the  walls of this room from here, but when you  close your
eyes and  become  still you  can imagine  and feel that  you touch it. You  can
stand  where  you are and imagine  you are putting  your hand  on that  wall.
To prove  you really are, put it there  and slide it up and feel the  wood.
You can  imagine  you are doing  it without getting  off your seat. You  can
More Free Books Law of Attraction Havendo it and  you will actually  feel it if you  become  still enough and intense
enough.
I stand  where  I am and  I allow  the world  that I want to see and  to enter
physically to come before  me as though I were  there  now. In other  words,
I bring  elsewhere  here by assuming that I am there.
Is that clear? I let it come  up, I do not make it come  up. I simply imagine
I am there  and then let it happen.
If I want a  physical presence, I imagine  he is standing  here, and  I touch
him All through   the Bible I find  these  suggestions, "He  placed  his hands
upon them. He  touched  them."
If you  want to comfort someone,  what is the  automatic  feeling? To put
your hand  on them, you  cannot resist it. You  meet a friend and the hand
goes out automatically, you  either  shake hands or put your hand  on his
shoulder.
Suppose  you were now to meet a  friend  that you  have not seen for a  year
and he is a  friend  of whom you  are very fond. What would  you do? You
would  embrace  him, wouldn't you? Or  you would  put your hand  upon him.
In your imagination bring  him close  enough to put your hand  upon him
and feel him to be  solidly real. Restrict the  action to just that. You  will
be amazed  at what happens. From then on things begin to move.  Your di -
mensionally greater  self will inspire, in all, the  ideas and  actions neces -
sary to bring  you into physical contact. It works that way.
Every day I put myself into the  drowsy state; it is a  very easy thing  to do.
But habit is a strange thing in man's world. It is not law,  but habit acts as
though it were  the most compelling  law in the  world. We  are creatures of
habit.
If you  create  an interval every day into which you  put yourself into the
drowsy state, say   at 3 o'clock  in the  afternoon, do you  know  at that mo -
ment every day you  will feel drowsy. You  try it for one  week and see if I
am not right.
You sit down for the  purpose  of creating  a state akin to sleep, as though
you were sleepy, but do not push the  drowsiness too far, just far  enough
to relax and  leave  you in control of the  direction of your thoughts. You  try
it for one  week, and  every day at that hour, no matter  what you  are do-
ing, you  will hardly be  able to keep  your eyes open. If you  know  the hour
when you  will be  free you  can create  it. I would  not suggest that you  do it
lightly, because  you will feel very, very  sleepy and  you may not want to.

cases
Because

has

effect
on
the

and
can

in

Hello
one
method
is
suitable
for
prevention
for
a
person,
a
completely
different
one
for
a
sick
person
.
Therefore,
we
will
analyze
some
questions
in
more
detail.
How
to
properly
start
urinotherapy?
Each
healing
method
is
only
effective
and
suitable
if
one
knows
well
the
mechanism
of
its
action
and
if
it
meets
requirements
such
as
safety,
clarity
and
simplicity
of
use.
In
the
first
phase
of
using
any
method,
intellectual
preparation
is
necessary,
the
acquisition
of
exhaustive
knowledge
about
the
given
matter.
The
previous
interpretation
should
be
such
a
preparation.
Other
concerns
associated
with
the
use
of
urine
stem
from
the
sexual
area.
Urine
comes
from
the
genitals
and
can
be
associated
with
something
forbidden
or
inappropriate.
The
sexual
component
of
urinotherapy
has
a
great
energy
charge.
All
neuroses
are
associated
with
the
suppression
of
something,
with
moral
prohibitions.
These
violate
the
natural
circulation
of
energy,
moreover,
energy
is
wasted
on
following
these
stupid
prohibitions.
Know
that
nature
directs
its
processes
so
that
energy
arises
and
circulates
freely
and
is
used
spontaneously,
as
needed.
Happiness
and
security
are,
for
example,
natural
states
of
mind.
It
is
they
that
strengthen
energy
and
help
its
free
circulation.
As
soon
as
we
develop
a
neurosis,
we
block
this
natural
circulation
of
energy,
disrupting
its
normal
passage.
This
is
where
all
neuroses
stem
from
sex,
traditions,
superstitions,
prohibitions
and
similar
restrictions,
when
blockages
and
energy
losses
occur.
Therefore,
a
free-spirited
approach
to
urinotherapy
and
a
relationship
with
urine
is
an
important
step,
especially
if
it
is
motivated
by
an
effort
to
remove
a
mental
or
physical
blockage.
Even
the
ancient
Indians
claimed
that
urine
has
the
ability
to
release
prana
(ener gy)
of
mind
and
body
.
Once
you
remove
from
your
mind
the
ossification
that
prevents
us
from
using
urine,
energetic
and
physiological
processes
will
flow
freely,
without
difficulty.
Therefore,
urinotherapy
can
be
highly
evaluated
even
from
a
pure
point
of
view
psychological
point
of
view.
As
soon
as
we
find
out
that
urine
can
be
useful
for
us
in
something,
our
relationship
with
everything
that
we
previously
considered
unpleasant
changes.
We
will
feel
more
flight,
energy
and
will
to
discover
other
mysteries
of
life.
Our
relationship
with
nature
will
be
even
more
positive
and
many
will
surprise
and
interest
us
rather
than
cause
fear
and
disgust.
After
overcoming
the
psychological
barrier,
it
is
necessary
to
show
the
person
that
the
use
of
urine
is
safe,
effective,
simple
and
clear.
When
a
person
is
convinced
from
his
own
experience
that
what
he
heard
corresponds
to
the
truth,
he
himself
suddenly
feels
relief.
He
convinced
himself
of
the
safety
of
the
method,
and
now
it
is
difficult
for
anyone
to
convince
him
otherwise.
So,
we
present
to
you
the
method
of
correct
and
gradual
initiation
of
urinotherapy.
You
will
feel
the
first
results
in
just
a
week,
which
will
be
tangible
in
a
month
and
convincing
in
half
a
year.
Then
you
decide
for
yourself
whether
to
continue
or
not.When
to
start
urinotherapy
treatment
and
from
what?
Begin
each
new
venture
at
the
beginning
of
the
lunar
month,
after
the
new
moon.
This
is
a
natural
natural
cycle,
a
closed
one
at
that,
and
it
is
important
to
act
in
accordance
with
it.
This
is
especially
true
for
men
and
children.
For
women,
it
is
possible
to
time
the
start
of
urinotherapy
at
the
end
of
menstruation,
one
or
two
days
after
menstruation.
Such
a
beginning
does
not
in
any
way
disturb
the
natural
course
of
physiological
processes.
In
many
people
after
surgery,
as
in
animals,
excretion
of
feces
and
urine
occurs
through
the
smooth
intestine
and
j
It
is
therefore
logical
to
start
urinotherapy
with
enemas.
From
a
physiological
point
of
view
j
e
it
justified
by
that.
that
in
today's
man,
the
large
intestine
is
the
biggest
source
intoxication
of
the
body
from
waste
and
harmful
substances
that
accumulate
in
it
from
improper
diet.
Enemas
with
water
(and
lemon
juice
or
chamomile)
and
small
enemas
with
urine
will
quickly
clean
the
colon.
A
significant
healing
effect
will
be
seen
in
just
a
week,
if
there
are
no
serious
diseases
in
the
intestine.
The
procedure
can
be
done
as
follows:
immediately
after
passing
stool,
you
inject
200
-
400
grams
of
urine
into
your
anus
with
a
rubber
balloon
in
two
to
four
doses
in
a
row.
The
urine
of
a
child
up
to
10
years
of
age
can
also
be
used,
regardless
of
gender.
So
you
will
continue
every
day
for
one
week.
This
is
the
first
stage
that
will
show
you
how
to
use
urine
j
simple,
safe
and
useful
for
your
health.
In
addition,
it
will
take
as
much
time
as
cleaning
teeth.
Then
you
can
proceed
to
second
stage,
which
will
convince
you
of
the
effectiveness
of
urinotherapy.
In
this
phase,
in
the
morning,
you
wash
your
nasopharynx
with
fresh
urine
(neti
method),
rub
the

of
your

and

What	you	need	to	do	on	the	sixth	day	of	drinking	apple	juice:
	Drink	all	the	32
ounces	of	apple	juice	in	the	morning.	You	may	start	drinking	the	juice	soon	after
awakening.	If	you	feel	hungry	in	the	morning,	eat	a	light	breakfast,	such	as	a	hot	cereal;
oatmeal	would	be	an	ideal	choice.	Avoid	sugar	or	other	sweeteners,	spices,	milk,	butter,
oils,	yogurt,	cheese,	ham,	eggs,	nuts,	pastries,	cold	cereals,	and	the	like.	Fruit	or	fruit
juices	are	fine.	For	lunch	eat	plain	cooked	or	steamed	vegetables	with	white	rice
(preferably	basmati	rice)	and	flavor	it	with	a	little	unrefined	sea	or	rock	salt.	To	repeat,
do
not	eat	any	protein	foods,	butter,	or	oil,
	or	you	might	feel	ill	during	the	actual	cleanse.
Do
not	eat	or	drink	anything	(except	water)	after	1:30	p.m.,
	otherwise	you	may	have
difficulties	passing	stones!	Follow	the	exact	schedule	below.
	The	Actual	Cleanse
	Evening

6:00
p.m.
Add	4	tablespoons	of	Epsom	salts	(magnesium	sulfate)	to	a	total	of	24	ounces
(three	8-oz.	glasses)	of	filtered	water	in	a	jar.	This	makes	four	6-oz	servings.	Drink
your	first	portion	(¾	glass)	now.	You	may	take	a	few	sips	of	water	afterward	to
neutralize	the	bitter	taste	in	your	mouth,	or	may	add	a	little	lemon	juice	to	improve
the	taste.	Some	people	drink	it	with	a	large	plastic	straw	to	bypass	the	taste	buds	on
the	tongue.	Closing	the	nostrils	while	drinking	it	works	well	for	most	people.	It	is
also	helpful	to	brush	your	teeth	afterward	or	rinse	out	the	mouth	with	baking	soda.
One	of	the	main	actions	of	Epsom	salt	is	to	dilate	(widen)	the	bile	ducts,	making	it
easy	for	the	stones	to	pass.	Moreover,	the	salts	clear	out	waste	that	may	obstruct	the
release	of	the	stones.	(If	you	are	allergic	to	Epsom	salts	or	are	just	not	able	to	get
them	down,	you	may	instead	use	the	second	best	choice—magnesium	citrate—at
the	same	dosage.)	Set	out	the	citrus	fruit	you	will	be	using	later,	so	that	it	can	warm
to	room	temperature.
8:00
p.m.
Drink	your	second	serving	(¾	glass)	of	Epsom	salts.
9:30
p.m.
If	you	have	not	had	a	bowel	movement	until	now	and	have	not	done	a	colon
cleanse	within	the	past	24	hours,	take	a	water	enema;	this	will	trigger	a	series	of
bowel	movements.
2
9:45
p.m.
Thoroughly	wash	the	grapefruits	(or	lemons	and	oranges).	Squeeze	them	by	hand
and	remove	the	pulp.	You	will	need	¾	glass	of	juice.	Pour	the	juice	and	½	glass	of
olive	oil	into	the	pint	jar.	Close	the	jar	tightly	and	shake	hard,	about	20	times	or
until	the	solution	is	watery.	Ideally,	you	should	drink	this	mixture	at	10:00	p.m.,	but
if	you	feel	you	still	need	to	visit	the	bathroom	a	few	more	times,	you	may	delay
this	step	for	up	to	10	minutes.
10:00
p.m.
Stand	next	to	your	bed	(do	not	sit	down)	and	drink	the	concoction,	if	possible,
without	interruption.	Some	people	prefer	to	drink	it	through	a	large	plastic	straw.
Drinking	it	while	keeping	the	nostrils	closed	seems	to	work	best.	If	necessary,	use	a
little	honey	between	sips,	which	helps	the	mixture	go	down	more	smoothly.	Most
people,	though,	have	no	problem	drinking	in	one	go.	Do	not	take	more	than	5
minutes	for	this	(only	elderly	or	weak	people	may	take	longer).

PLEASE	LIE	DOWN	IMMEDIATELY!
	This	is	essential	for	helping	to	release	the	gallstones!	Turn	off	the	lights	and	lie	flat	on
your	back	with	one	or	two	pillows	propping	your	head	up.	Your	head	should	be	higher
than	your	abdomen.	If	this	is	uncomfortable,	lie	on	your	right	side	with	your	knees	pulled
toward	your	head.
Lie	perfectly	still	for	at	least	20	minutes,	and	try	not	to	speak!
	Put
your	attention	on	your	liver.	Some	people	find	it	beneficial	to	place	a	castor	oil	pack	over
the	liver	area.

You	may	feel	the	stones	traveling	along	the	bile	ducts	like	marbles.	There	won’t	be	any
spasms	or	pain	because	the	magnesium	in	the	Epsom	salts	keeps	the	bile	duct	valves	wide
open	and	relaxed,	and	the	bile	that	is	excreted	along	with	the	stones	keeps	the	bile	ducts
well	lubricated.	(This	is	very	different	than	in	the	case	of	a	gallstone	attack	where
magnesium	and	bile	are	not	present.)	Go	to	sleep	if	you	can.

If	at	any	time	during	the	night	you	feel	the	urge	to	have	a	bowel	movement,	do	so.
Check	if	there	are	already	small	gallstones	(pea-green	or	tan-colored	ones)	floating	in	the
toilet.	You	may	feel	nauseated	during	the	night	and/or	in	the	early	morning	hours.	This	is
mostly	due	to	a	strong,	sudden	outpouring	of	gallstones	and	toxins	from	the	liver	and
gallbladder,	pushing	the	oil	mixture	back	into	the	stomach.	The	nausea	will	pass	as	the
morning	progresses.
	The	Following	Morning

6:00-
6:30
a.m.
Upon	awakening,	but	not	before	6:00	a.m.,	drink	your	third	¾	glass	of	Epsom	salts
(if	you	feel	very	thirsty,	drink	a	glass	of	warm	water	before	taking	the	salts).	Rest,
read,	or	meditate.	If	you	are	sleepy,	you	may	go	back	to	bed,	although	it	is	best	if
the	body	stays	in	an	upright	position.	Most	people	feel	fine	and	prefer	to	do	some
light	exercises,	such	as	yoga.
8:00-
8:30
a.m.
Drink	your	fourth	and	last	¾	glass	of	Epsom	salts.
10:00-
10:30
a.m.
You	may	drink	freshly	pressed	fruit	juice	at	this	time.	One	half-hour	later,	you
may	eat	one	or	two	pieces	of	fresh	fruit.	One	hour	later	you	may	eat	regular	(but
light)	food.	By	the	evening	or	the	next	morning	you	should	be	back	to	normal	and
feel	the	first	signs	of	improvement.	Continue	to	eat	light	meals	during	the
following	2-3	days.	Remember,	your	liver	and	gallbladder	have	undergone	major
“surgery,”	albeit	without	the	harmful	side	effects	or	the	expense.

Note:
	Drink	water	whenever	you	are	thirsty,	except	right	after	drinking	the	Epsom	salts
and	for	the	first	two	hours	after	drinking	the	oil	mixture.

."
That tenet, if obeyed, would eliminate the love of money, which
Paul taught was the root of all ev il. Eliminate evil and you eliminate
the causes of sickness, sorrow and death. In all my 75 years of church going I have never heard this doctrine expounded from the pulpit. But
I read Amos' prophecy and find the identical teaching: "See good and
not evil, that he may live"... and never ill and in want.
My own profession, dentistry, and medicine also, it seems to me,
fail in the same way. Neither can se e the underlying causes of human
ills for the symptoms. Consequently, the three leading professions
dedicated to the service of mankind, the clergy, dentistry and
medicine, do not teach or practice the way of life. That teaching is all
in the Bible, but our preachers do not master it. Seemingly they are content to quote stray passages of scripture taken out of its content to support their own ideas of what is true, honest, just, pure, lovely or of
good report.
As it seems to me, both dentistry and medicine are rather
disposed to disown any member of their respective professions who
would dare teach the true way of life, which would prevent most of
the disease, poverty and misery which afflict mankind today.
The churches teach that the Devil is responsible for all the
wrongs abroad in the world today—but I say that man himself is
responsible for those evils. He has wandered far from the good way
that the law and the prophets and the Nazarene laid out for him. Today he is lost in a bog, confused and bewildered, groping for a path back to the King's highway.
That has come to pass, I believe, because men, instead of
thinking upon things of good report, as Paul advised in his letter to the
Phillippians, have thought upon disease, loss, poverty, depression and war. Fearing those evils, man has brought them upon himself. Disease
is man-made. Poverty is man-made. Depressions and wars are man-
made.
As I have said before, and I repeat, the 20-odd years since my
60th birthday have been the best years of my life. It was not until I
began fasting or perhaps eating lightly of fruits or vegetables or juices, to correct bodily conditions which ha d threatened my life that ideas
and visions of that good way of life came flooding my being. Thus for
the first time I had achieved spiritual heights to get some inkling of the
meaning of life, to taste the satisfactions which the good way might
hold for me. I have since striven to continue in that way. Dreamlike
thoughts and visions pour in on me and open up vistas never glimpsed during my younger years. It follows that the widely held notion that at 60 a man is too old
to work at his job, full of pains and inefficient, and ought to retire, is
far removed from my experience. Had I continued to feed my appetite,
as I had done in youth and middle lif e, then I would have been ready
to go on the shelf at 60.
What happens to a man after 60. I have concluded, depends on
the man himself. He must decide what master he will serve, whether
he will yield to his physical appetites that will drag him down or will
resolutely choose and pursue the good way of life, that promises him
good health, efficiency and durable satisfactions long past his three
score years and ten.

CHAPTER 37.

SIGNALS ON LIFE'S HIGHWAY
 As a foresighted motorist, the reader would not think of starting
out on a cross-country tour without a supply of up-to-date road maps.
Life is a journey too, but we pass over the route only once. For that
reason it is much more important that we study life's maps, chart the way we mean to follow and learn what we can concerning what is to
be expected along the road. The better we know ourselves, the better
we understand the rules of the road (which are nature's laws), the more
we shall reap from the journey in health and happiness and in beauty
seen by the way.
On this life journey, we have to obey two sets of traffic rules,
natural law and man-made law. For every moment of our lives we are
subject to that dual authority. The rewards which we earn and the
penalties which we incur depend upo n how well we learn and keep the
law.
The reader knows well enough which is the more important. He
can sometimes break a man-made law, exceed the speed limit or cut a
corner and get away with it. By contrast, experience has taught him
that nature never overlooks a mistake. There are no suspended sentences, paroles and pardons in nature's court. Man-made customs,
conventions and standards of value are constantly changing. Each
generation sets up its own. If we wish to be happy on the west side of
this rise (in life's journey), we must not stake our all on man-made
values. These will one day become ou t of date and be discarded. New
standards will be substituted to fit the new time. Not so with natural
law, God's law, that is changeless and eternal. It  is therefore important
that the traveler on Life's Road le arn Nature's Laws and learn that he
must obey those laws if he is to find the going smooth.
Particularly when the young man starts out from the parental
home to make his own way, he needs a map to guide him. It is essential first of all that he know himself; but he should also know the natural and man-made laws with whic h he has to deal. It will help to
inform him that the roadside is we ll strewn with signs and signals for
who can read. No lesson that a young man can learn is more important
than learning to look for, recognize and read aright the signals on life's
highway.
As a practicing dentist, after I had once learned how food makes
the man, I could look at signs in my patient's mouth and tell him the
type of food he lived upon, whether he had a "sweet tooth" and ate
heavily of white bread, syrup, cakes and pies, or that he had a strong
appetite for beef, gravy and pork ch ops, or, again if he consumed
enough salads and drank enough pure raw milk. Common sense teaches me that th ose signs are not confined to
the mouth. If a person's diet is not properly balanced, or if he has
sinned against his body by too much or too little exercise, too little
sleep or excesses of any kind, there will be warning signs that nature
has put out. It may be a pimple, a fever sore, a stiff joint, a pain in the
chest, a cough or shortness of breath. Whatever the sign, it is
important that the person, or his family physician or other trained
observer, read it, interpret it and see that the ill to which it points is
corrected. There is an old saying: "Be sure your sins will find you
out."
That principle applies forcefully to sins against the body. Eat the
wrong foods, eat too much, overwork or mistreat the body in any way
and there will be warning signs. Happy the man who heeds them! Above all others, the mother should  be well drilled in reading those
bodily signs and signals and should know what to do whenever the
symptoms appear. Suppose the law let a man set himself up in an
office to practice dentistry, to re pair decayed teeth, pull teeth and
make new sets without training for the job. Well, when she undertakes
to rear a child, the mother starts on a more complicated job than running a dental office.
Along our principal highways, enterprising State engineers have
installed ingenious signs which instan tly warn the driver of a curve to
the right or left, a winding stretch, a crossing, a dip or other bad spots
ahead. Now, a kind nature provides even more warning signs, even
flashing lights that cannot be missed, along life's highway. To disregard those signs is to invite tr ouble, even to risk fatal disease.
Nature's signals tell us what we ourselves are creating. For most
diseases, like most highway wrecks, are man-made. Quicker than most sins against one's body, wrong eating habits exact their penalties.
Eating the right food in the right quantity, but in sufficient variety to give zest to the appetite, is mightil y important because food keeps the
body in repair, keeps the life processes going.
Take a gentle white rat, a cat or any pet and feed it on the sort of
diet that many parents feed their children, too heavy on white bread
and sweets, too light on raw vegetables and milk, and the pet will soon
become nervous and vicious. That is why I say that the way to prevent, or cure, juvenile delinquency is to see that all the children, including the under-privileged, get the food which they require for
healthy bodies. Build sound bodies and you build steady nerves, clear
brains and good morals.
There are persons who have learned somehow in their youth to
read and heed the signs and signals along life's road. As a result, each has lived long without aches and pains. Each has gained added
wisdom with experience and so has found the world


, Italy, parts of France, and southern Germany. The patients
of these institutions are fed almost exclusively upon raw grapes for four to six weeks at a time, starting with about a pound a
day and gradually increasing the amount to five to eight pounds a day. Johanna Brandt reported a number of cures from
cancer through the employment of the raw grape diet, and others have used it successfully in the treatment of constipation,
rheumatism, catarrh, gallstones, eczema, jaundice, malaria, hemorrhages, and other ailments. Grape cures are even
recommended in certain mental disturbances and in weakened conditions of the entire muscular system, including the
heart.
Raw cabbage juice has been used with remarkable success in treating ulcers. Dr. Garnett Chaney at Stanford University
treated 63 ulcer patients with one quart of raw cabbage juice per day, and 60 of these showed pronounced healing. In most
cases, the pain disappeared within a few days and recovery was complete within three weeks or less. Six patients with
"huge" ulcers required 56 days of treatment. The three patients who failed to respond had dense scar tissue in the stomach
and liver damage before treatment started. Dr. Chaney’s experience was almost duplicated by Dr. William Shive and his
colleagues at the University of Texas. Dr. Shive found that raw cabbage juice — as well as the juices of some other
vegetables — tends to prevent ulcers and to cure them. He studied 100 cases in which the ulcerous condition was so
severe that the use of the bland diet and anti-ulcer drugs had failed. But the drinking of one quart of fresh, raw cabbage
juice per day by these patients brought about marked beneficial results. The use of raw cabbage juice in amounts less than
one quart per day promotes less rapid recovery than does the full quota but it is of definite value, and even a glass of juice
per day tends to reduce or eliminate the pain in some cases. The raw cabbage juice is also an important aid to normal
elimination and it improves the general health of the ulcer patient as well as promoting recovery of his primary affliction.
SCRAPED APPLE DIET
The "scraped apple" diet is an old German folk remedy for both diarrhea and constipation. Modern scientists have
employed raw apple in the treatment of these same conditions with very good effects. T. L. Birnberg treated diarrhea in
children with raw, grated apple and obtained completely successful results in 88 per cent of all cases. He noted relief from
abdominal pain achieved almost immediately, normal stools achieved in 24 hours, reduction of fever within 48 hours, and
disappearance of mucus in 60 hours. The beneficial effects of raw apple in these cases are attributed to the presence of
“hydrophilic colloids" in the food which absorb excessive water and furnish bulk to control peristalsis.
RAW HONEY
Of particular interest is the therapeutic value of raw honey. This food has long been known as a "folk medicine" for hay
fever and asthma, and recent experimental studies conducted at the William Beaumond  General Hospital in El Paso, Texas
have shown that raw honey containing the pollen of the offending grasses or weeds builds up a natural resistance to these
agents in the body, thereby offering relief to the hay fever victims. Studies made by P E. Weesen of the Frauenfelder
Sanitarium of Europe showed that patients given raw honey exceeded all others both in strength and healthy appearance.
Dr. Paula Emrich tested 100 children, and found that those given raw honey achieved a 12 per cent increase in hemoglobin
content of their blood over the others. Dr. Rolleder gave a smaller quantity of raw honey to 58 children of an Austrian
orphanage and noted a hemoglobin increase of 8 1/2 per cent. Dr. Schacht of Wiesbaden claimed to have cured many
supposedly hopeless cases of gastric and intestinal ulcers with raw honey, and the celebrated Father Sebastian Kneipp
remarked that "smaller ulcers in the stomach are quickly contracted, broken and healed by it." Surprisingly, raw honey has
even been given to treat diabetes. Dr. A. Y. Davidov of Russia noted that it tended to prevent acetonemia, and in spite of its
high sugar content, its use was associated with the actual reduction of sugar in the urine. The American physicians, Dr. L.
R. Emerick of Eaton, Ohio, and the late Dr. R. J. Goss of Middlebury, Vermont, have treated hundreds of diabetic patients
with raw honey, achieving remarkable success and vast improvement in the weight, strength, and appearance of many
patients.
RAW LIVER
The value of raw liver in treating pernicious anemia is now well known. As early as 1926 Drs. Murphy and Minot were curing
severe cases of this disease with raw liver, and they claimed there was some unidentified factor in the food which
stimulated the growth of red corpuscles. At first this was called the "red blood vitamin." It is now known that there are two
such factors, folic acid and vitamin B12, both of which are destroyed by heat. Thus, whereas well-cooked liver is practically
useless in these cases, raw liver brings about consistent and rapid recovery. For perhaps the same reason raw liver, given
to weak and undersized children, has been reported to increase vigor and improve the rate of growth.
RAW MEAT PRODUCTS
Other raw meat products are also of unquestioned therapeutic importance. When tuberculosis was still a common disease
in this country, frail and consumptive people would be seen going to slaughterhouses to obtain draughts of fresh blood,
which were believed to be of great value in such cases. In countries where tuberculosis remains prevalent, this practice is
still followed, with reportedly good results. On a clinical basis the celebrated French physiologist, Prof. Charles Richet, was
among the first to use raw beef juice in the treatment of tuberculosis, and he reported excellent results in this practice. More
recently other European physicians are following this same method, and they apply the term, " zomotherapy" to designate
copyright © Dr. Stanley S. Bass   (718) 648-1500    www.drbass.com 5treatment of disease with raw meat or raw meat-juice. They claim success with zomotherapy in treating many conditions,
including anemia, neurasthenia, debility, convalescence, and latent, incipient, or active tuberculosis.
RAW SEEDS
Few raw foods have been as highly recommended as sunflower seeds, squash seeds, pumpkin seeds, and watermelon
seeds in the treatment of disease. Several years ago, J. I. Rodale noticed that sunflower seeds, when used in their raw
state, effected a remarkable cure for some cases of bleeding gums. After his report on this subject was published, new
evidence accumulated which indicated that raw sunflower seeds were also useful in treating sores, dermatitis, rheumatism,
rheumatic fever, arthritis, and kidney disease. The teeth were said to improve under the sunflower seed treatment, as was
the condition of the eyes. Raw squash and pumpkin seeds have been recommended as worm expellents. An infusion made
by soaking dried watermelon seeds in water was an old Indian folk treatment for kidney and bladder infections, and many in
modern life have also testified as to the efficiency of this treatment. The watermelon seeds may also be eaten in their fresh
state with good results. While much of the evidence in favor of these uncooked seed foods is in the form of testimonials
rather than clinical data, it is too extensive to be ignored. Whether we consider the seeds as effective "folk medicine" or just
good food, they are doubtless of much value in modern nutrition.
IMPROVED INTELLIGENCE
Raw foods have even been used to improve the intelligence quotients and mental attitudes of backward children. In
Germany, Dr. Lottner reported an experiment in which 33 children, having low intelligent quotients and attending a school
for backward children, were given a raw breakfast each morning. This was in the form of " muesli ” an uncooked porridge
made from oat flakes, milk, fruits, nuts, and honey. The children given the raw breakfasts rapidly improved over all the
others. They did better work in dictation, arithmetic, letter-canceling, and drawing completion tests. They were also less
restless, did not become tired as rapidly as before, and showed better concentration in accomplishing their daily work.
CLINICAL APPLICATION OF THE RAW FOOD DIET
IN CALIFORNIA
If the simple addition of certain raw foods to a normal diet produces such startling changes in human health, it may be
expected that a diet composed entirely, or nearly so, of raw foods would be much more beneficial and achieve more rapid
and far-reaching results. This has been shown to be true at the Pottenger Sanitarium in California, where a large variety of
raw foods has been employed for therapeutic purposes.
Dr. Pottenger writes that "the highest grade of raw milk, raw meat, raw vegetables and fruit products obtainable" are used in
the clinical work. He points out that "we have been able to improve the physiologic response of children who have
previously been developing in a deficient manner" similar to the experimental animals which were fed upon heat-processed
foods. Even defective facial growth has been improved, and Pottenger states that "when additional growth stimulation is
applied to certain deficient children at the right time, before they have attained facial growth, material changes in the

 so they perk themselves up with  coffee or a soft drink. Dinner consists of a
charbroiled steak, or a piece of roast beef or othe r cooked meat with white flour gravy and
cooked-to-death vegetables. For dessert there is ic e cream or pie a la mode with another glass of
milk. It is impossible for the pancreas to produce enough enzymes under these conditions.
Eggs
Eggs are an unusually good source of protein — well  balanced and the standard by which all
protein is evaluated. They have all the essential a mino acids in proper proportions. The cancer
patient may have two eggs (preferably raw) each day  at anytime.
Proper preparation of eggs is of vital importance. The eggs must be heated in the shell. We bring
our eggs to a temperature of 140º F. to 160º F. (wh ich is the normal temperature of hot tap
water), for five minutes before cracking them. This  destroys an enzyme just inside the membrane
under the shell that prevents the biotin in the egg  from functioning normally. When biotin
functions properly, it greatly reduces the choleste rol risks of eating eggs.
After preheating before cracking them, the eggs may  then be eaten, as you prefer them. Raw and
soft-boiled eggs are the most preferable, though it  isn’t absolutely necessary to eat them in these
forms. In keeping with the use of as much raw food as possible, a good procedure is to eat the
eggs raw in a blended drink of some kind, flavored to suit one’s taste.
There was a group of research doctors and dentists who, for at least a dozen years, had eaten two
eggs daily (properly prepared as above), as part of  a well-balanced nutritional program. Tests
conducted on these people showed no increase in cho lesterol. In fact, there was a significant
decrease in the blood serum cholesterol level of ea ch individual.
Misconceived beliefs of the orthodox medical world about eating cholesterol-containing foods
have caused countless people to be unduly alarmed a bout cholesterol levels and the associated
possibility of heart attacks. These misconceptions,  carried on from the early 1950’s, have been
proven false.
Liver
Liver is a wonderful energy food and cannot be surp assed as a blood builder. It is especially
crucial for leukemia and lymphoma patients, as thei r blood is unusually weak. However, all
cancer patients can benefit from the intake of raw liver before noon each day. In the mid 1960s,
when Dr. Kelley was told he was in the final stages  of pancreatic and liver cancer, he found that
raw liver blended into carrot juice gave him streng th when everything else he ate made him feel
ill.
Raw organic, antibiotic-free and hormone-free liver  contains a multitude of live enzymes, amino
acids and other intrinsic factors that science has not yet identified, which are destroyed when the
liver is cooked. (References to "intrinsic" or "uni dentified" food factors are fairly common in
nutritional literature. They result from clinical r eactions, which cannot be linked to known nutrients. Raw liver for cancer patients is an exce llent example of powerful therapeutic, but
unexplained, effects.) There are no supplements or drugs that can take the place of raw liver;
none are in any way comparable in their effects. Ea ting raw liver ensures thorough digestion and
the replacement of expended nutrients, promoting ex cellent health.
Raw liver is best if it is organic, antibiotic-free, hormone-free and not irradiated. However, if this
type of raw liver is unavailable, fresh muscle meat, steaks and ground, are acceptable even if you
buy them at regular markets. Organically grown and not irradiated is always more nutritious and
preferable. But if organic isn’t available, commerc ial is healthier than none. At least 3 and no
more than 6 heaping tablespoons of raw liver should  be taken daily.
Chewing the liver is best for proper digestion. How ever, if masticating it is too objectionable, it
will digest well even swallowed whole, if it is sli ced into small enough cubes, and if adequate
hydrochloric acid and enzymes are taken.
There are two methods which people find suitable fo r preparing liver:
1.  The liver can be sliced about ¼ inch thick, placed on a cookie sheet, and frozen. After it
is frozen, it can be cut into ¼ inch cubes. One can  then use plastic sandwich bags, putting
3 to 6 tablespoons of frozen cubed liver in each ba g and storing them in the freezer for
daily eating. This frozen liver may be chewed or sw allowed whole, followed by a sip of
juice if desired. Some prefer to allow the liver to  thaw and then to place a spoonful at a
time in the mouth and chew it or swallow it whole w ith a sip of juice.
2.  Liver may be placed in the blender with carrot, pin eapple, or tomato juice (and seasoning
of one’s preference if desired), blended, strained to remove the fiber if preferred, and
used as a morning "pep-up" drink.
Meat (Cooked and Commercially Produced)
The cancer patient will want to give up cooked and commercially produced meat such as beef,
pork, lamb and fowl immediately (except for raw liv er — see above). Cooked meat is harmful
for the cancer patient, as the very same enzymes us ed in its digestion are needed for fighting and
digesting the cancer. All natural, self-made enzyme s your body can produce should be used to
fight the cancer. Commercial meat should be avoided  for another reason; it has a high female sex
hormone content. For commercial reasons most animal s, especially beef and fowl produced in
the United States have been fed large quantities of  hormones. Since an overabundance of female
sex hormones initiate cancer, meat of this type sho uld be excluded from the cancer patient’s diet.
After being on Metabolic Medicine’s Cancer Cure Die t for 9 to 12 months, when the tumors are
under control, one may gradually resume consumption  of meat as long as one’s metabolic type
requires it (see Chapter VIII, Metabolic Typing — D iscovering Your Personal Nutritional
Needs) and adequate enzymes and hydrochloric acid a re taken to digest it.
If and when one does go back to eating meat, it wil l be extremely wise to make every effort to
find a source that can provide meat, which has been  produced without chemical feed, hormones,
antibiotics, and pesticide residues.  Protein After 6 Months On Cancer Diet
After the first six months on Metabolic Medicine’s Cancer Cure Diet the cancer patient must
increase the quantity of protein in his diet. At th is time not less than sixty grams of protein daily
should be included in the diet. You should, of cour se, continue all the above approved protein,
but now you may include (or increase) such proteins  as those found in deep sea fish, all forms of
seeds, nuts (except peanuts), nut butters, whole gr ains, whole grain breads, and homemade, raw
(unpasteurized) goats’ milk yogurt and/or buttermil k.
Seeds and Sprouts
Raw seeds and sprouts are good foods for cancer pat ients, and may be eaten after 1:00 p.m. We
freely use brown sesame, sunflower and pumpkinseeds. Many people enjoy sprouted seeds, such
as alfalfa and mung beans, buckwheat, wheat and soy beans.
The most "living foods" are sprouted seeds. When se eds are soaked in water, their protective
enzyme inhibitors are removed and the enzymes, whic h have been "asleep," become active, and
in three days the nutritional values of the seeds a re increased tremendously. The seeds also
become much easier to digest.
For the best in nutrition, be sure to eat your spro uts raw. Eat as many as you desire.
Beans
Dry beans of all types are a good source of food fo r the cancer patient, and may be used two or
three times a week at anytime of the day. The best way we’ve found to prepare them is to cook
them at a temperature of 200º F. We place two cups of dried beans (washed) in a bean pot to
which we add five cups of RO filtered or distilled water, five garlic cloves, two tablespoons of
olive oil, 1 teaspoon of sea salt or kelp, and 1/8 teaspoon of cayenne pepper. We place the pot,
(covered), in an oven overnight at 200º F.
Vegetable Juice and Fruit Juice (Phase Two)
Vegetable Juices (Fresh and Raw)
The second most important phase of our cancer diet is that of fresh raw juices. At least one quart
of carrot and one pint of celery juice should be ta ken each day. As much other fresh raw
vegetable juice in volume may be taken as desired. One should consider alfalfa, beet, cabbage,
cucumber, dandelion, endive, lettuce, parsley, pota to, spinach, and turnip juice. Vegetable juices
are the builders of the body. Juice is better than the whole vegetable because so much energy is
used to digest the whole vegetable. Juice has a pro per balance of vitamins and minerals in a
concentrated solution. We recommend that the juice


ﬀiciently to realize that I had been ﬂying while I
was neither asleep nor awake. My eyes had been
open. I had responded to my instruments’
indications and held generally to compass course,
but I had lost sense of circumstance and time.
During imme asurable periods, I seemed to extend
outside my plane and body, independent ofworldly values, appreciative of beauty, form, and
color without depending upon my eyes.
As a child, Lindbergh had lain in the cornﬁelds on his
father’s farm  and felt a similar sense of being “beyond
mortality” as he gazed into the sky. But the episode over
the North Atlantic went further. What Lindbergh concluded
about it was this: “It was an experience in which  both the
intellect and senses were replaced by what might be
termed a matterless awareness….I recognized that vision
and reality interchange, like energy and matter.”
Doctors to whom I mention meditation generally assure
me, whether they “believ e” in it or not, that meditation is
for relaxation. It is only in the light of Veda that one can
understand why this view is so shortsighted.
—
Veda represents an immense expansion of the human mind.
The best way to describe it is that Veda is the total content
of the cosmic computer. All the input of nature is channeled
into it, and out of it ﬂows all natural phenom ena. The
control over this comput er is located in the human brain,
whose billio ns of neural connections give it enough
complexity to mirror the complexity of the universe.
The brain is not important as an object, the rishis
contend. It is important because our own subjectivity
shines through it; when our brains show us the world, they
are really showing us ourselves. By analogy, when an image
falls upon a mirror, a blending takes place. The mirror is
the reﬂection; the reﬂection is the mirror. In the same way,
the only reality we can know anything about is the one that
is being mirrored in the brain—everything that exists is
therefore inside our subjectivity.A physicist would not normally agree with this, since he
cherishes the objective method and looks on subjectivity as
virtually his enemy. A physicist says, “This is a proton,” not,
“This is my feeling for what a proton is.” Actually, Veda is
not devoid of objective knowledge—it gave rise to its own
sciences of botany, physiology, astronomy, medicine, et
cetera—but the rishis did not feel that objectivity was the
most reliable way to know things, particularly once you
investigate deeper than nature’s surface. The truth, they
said, is that subjectivity can be either narrow or expanded.
Nature is like a radio band. When you pay attention to an
isolated object—a rock, a star, or an entire galaxy—you
select one channel on the band. The rest obviously has to
be excluded—but only for that level of consciousness.
It may be that other levels of consciousness receiv e more
bands, or more than one band at a time. Right now,
physicists estimate that our senses choose less than one-
billionth of the energy waves and particles that surround
us. We live in an “energy soup” incredibly larger than the
world we see. The visible universe itself is now thought to
be but a minuscule version of the original creation, the
residue of a much larger reality that collapsed somewhere
before time began, reducing its original ten dimensions to
our four. (I apologize for using the phrase “before time
began,” which is a blatant paradox, but there is no way to
state verbally how pre–Big Bang events occurred.) Also, it
appears that at the moment of creation our universe was
ﬁlled with a billion times more energy than we now observe
with radio telescopes; the remainder was reabso rbed into
the same hidden ﬁeld where the other six dimensions went.
The rishis declared that through expanded
consciousness, even this inconceivable lost reality  could be
made available to us. Theoretical physics agrees that the
lost dimensions and invisible energy ﬁelds have not actually
gone anywhe re; they have only sunk back to “sleep” in theprimordial ﬁeld. Similarly, the transcendental level of
awareness is available everywhere; you need not go
anywhere special to ﬁnd it. It only needs to wake up.
William James expressed this idea in a famous passage:
Our normal waking consciousness, rational
consciousness as we call it, is but one special type
of consciousness, whilst all around it, parted from
it by the ﬂimsiest of screens, there lie potential
forms of consciousness entirely diﬀerent. We may
go through  life without suspecting their
existence; but apply the requisite stimulus, and at
a touch they are there in all their completeness.
If so much more reality is nearby, why can’t we touch it?
Researchers found a clue to the answer, curiously enough,
by experime nting with newborn kittens. Kittens are born
with their eyes shut and their optic nerves undeveloped.
When they open their eyes, the mechanism for sight
matures at the same time; these two events always go hand
in hand. However, it was found in the mid-1970s that if you
blindfold a kitten during the two or three days when it ﬁrst
opens its eyes, the animal will be blind for life. During thus
brief but critical period, the experience of seeing actually
shapes the inter-neuronal connections in the brain that
make sight possible.
This was an important ﬁnding, for biologists continue to
disagree over whether genetics or experience is more
important in behavior. This is the old question of whether a
trait is innate or acquired. Does a robin  learn to sing from
its mother, or will it sing if raised in isolation? The
experiment with the blind kittens showed that both
“nature” and “nurture” are essential; the kitten’s brain is
programmed for sight, yet it requires seeing for the
programming to unfold properly. There is a deeperimplication to all this, however. Our own brains could be
limited in just this way. Many things “out there” don’t exist
for us, not because they are unreal, but because “in here”
we have not shaped the brain to perceive them. We are like
radios that appear to have all the channels when actually
they are stuck on three—waking, sleeping, and dreaming.
Because your brain is the only radio you have, you can
never know whether the fourth state exists unless your
nervous system is prepared for it. It is entirely possible that
we are literally bathed and surrounded by the transcendent
and yet have not tuned it in.
The Veda gives a supporting analogy: thoughts are like
ocean waves. Rising and falling, they see only their own
motion. They say, “I am a wave,” but the greater truth,
which they do not see, is, “I am ocean.” There is no
separation between the two, whatever the wave might
suppose. When a wave settles down, then it instantly
recognizes that its source in ocean—inﬁnite, silent, and
unchanging—was always there.
The same holds true for the mind. When it is thinking, it
is all activity; when it stops thinking, it returns to its source
in silence. Only then, when the mind touches pure
awareness, will the real storehouse of Veda be located. The
experience of Veda therefore is not ancient or even
particularly Indian. It is universal and can be had at any
moment by any person. The whole trick is not to move
horizontally, which is how the stream of consc iousness
normally moves, but to sink vertically. This vertical descent
is transcend ing, meditation, dhyan, “going beyond”—all
manifestations of a mind that ceases to identify with waves
and begins to identify with ocean.
If this argument is right, then the nature of the mind and
the mind-body connection have to be reconside red. The
point that Archimedes was looking for—a place to stand on
and move the world—actu ally exists. It is inside us, coveredup by the fascinating but misleading moving-picture show
of the waking state.
This may explain why mind-body medicine has proved so
inconsistent. We casually assume that a person who
survives cancer or can cure himself of a fatal disease
operates with the same mental machinery as anyone else,
but this is not true: mental processes can be deep or
shallow. To go deep means to contact the hidden blueprint
of intelligence and change it—only then can visualization of
ﬁghting cancer, for example, be strong enough to defeat
the disease. But most people cannot do that; their thought
power is too weak to trigger the appropriate mechanisms.
—
The practical question is whether meditation is strong
enough to radically improve our thought power. Several
studies cond ucted by scientists have shown that meditation
may in fact induce profound change, far beyond the simple
relaxation that most people use it for in the West, even
beyond the medical applications of relieving stress,
reducing blood pressure, and so on.
The ﬁrst Western scientist to make any major
breakthrough with


 about more rapid recovery than did the green juice
alone.
HEART DISEASE, ARTHRITIS, LEUKEMIA
Dr. Kirshner has also reported that other chronic ailments can be treated very successfully with raw vegetable juices, taken
in some cases in amounts exceeding two quarts per day. He has cited recoveries from heart disease, prostrate gland
disease, cancer, neuritis, arthritis, and hemorrhoids through the use of raw juices. In one diabetic case, remarkable
improvement was noted within the first 21 days of treatment, and the insulin dosage was reduced from 15 to 5 units per
day. The most remarkable case history cited by Dr. Kirshner, however, was that of a severe case of splenic leukemia. The
patient in this instance was given raw carrot juice — small quantities at first, with gradual increases to very large quantities
— and her weight increased from 65 to 135 lbs. Recovery was complete within 18 months, and at no later time was there
any recurrence of the disease.
CANCER
The famous cancer specialist, Dr. Max Gerson, has employed a diet containing large amounts of raw vegetable juices as
part of his treatment for cancer. Some of Dr. Gerson’s  patients are given as much as 16 glasses of raw juice each day, but
most of them are given somewhat smaller amounts, including daily doses of 4 glasses of carrot and apple juice, 4 glasses
of green leaf juice, 2 to 3 glasses of calf’s liver juice and 1 glass of orange juice. About 75 per cent of Dr. Gerson’s cancer
diet, including all juices, is uncooked; the balance consists of vegetable broths and other foods which are cooked by the
least destructive methods. Dr. Gerson has reported  gratifying results in about 50 per cent of his cancer cases, with many
complete recoveries. Indeed, Dr. Gerson’s experience in treating cancer at the Gotham Hospital in New York was so
successful that he was called upon to testify before a subcommittee in the U. S. Senate in 1946. In Canada, Dr. Gerson’s
counterpart may be found in the person of Dr. J. R. Davidson, formerly of the University of Toronto, who has also reported
curing a number of cancer patients on diets which consisted of raw foods and foods subjected to a minimum of cooking.
Among other foods, Dr. Davidson prescribes rare meats, raw milk, raw vegetables, and raw vegetable juices made from
carrots, celery, and lettuce.
RAW JUICES
In Great Britain, physicians have been equally successful in utilizing freshly-extracted raw juices for therapeutic purposes.
The Ministry of Health and Public Health Service Laboratory has issued a report pointing out the value of using the juices of
cabbage, kale, parsley, and other uncooked vegetables in the treatment of a wide variety of diseased conditions. The report
states: "Juices are valuable in relief of hypertension, cardiovascular and kidney diseases and obesity. Good results have
also been obtained in rheumatic, degenerative and toxic states. Juices have an all-around protective action. Good results
can be obtained in treatment of peptic ulceration, also in treatment of chronic diarrhea, colitis and toxemia of gastro and
intestinal origin."
The dental scientist, Dr. Harold F Hawkins, has reported that correct dietary control, with at least half of all foods used in
their raw state, is of much value in treating the symptoms of pyorrhea, including infection of the alveolar bone which
supports the teeth and gums. According to Dr. Hawkins, in caring for the pyorrhea patient, it is "essential to work out a plan
of eating that will include food that can be eaten raw such as raw milk, raw eggs, oysters on the half shell, raw vegetable
salads and raw fruit." Dr. Hawkins states that when an adequate dietary is followed, "the gum tone usually shows a definite
improvement in 60 or 90 days, and the X-rays show an improvement in bone density in about a year.”
During the years 1929, 1930, and 1931, Dr. Milton T. Hanke, working through the facilities provided by the University of
Chicago and the Chicago Dental Research Club, studied hundreds of school children in the city of Mooseheart, Illinois, to
determine the effects of adding the uncooked juices of citrus fruits to a conventional diet. During the first year the children
were studied as controls; the second year was the test period, and the third the recheck period. Approximately 16 ounces of
freshly extracted raw orange juice, plus the raw juice of one lemon, was added to the diet of each of 341 children on each
day of the test period. This brought about a sharp increase in growth rate over the control period, as well as a 50 per cent
reduction in the incidence of dental caries and the almost complete disappearance of gingivitis. During the recheck period,
when the quantity of juice was reduced to three ounces a day, the accelerated growth was maintained, though dental decay
again increased and most of the gingivitis reappeared.

extensive employment in the sanitariums and resorts of Merano, Italy, parts of France, and southern Germany. The patients
of these institutions are fed almost exclusively upon raw grapes for four to six weeks at a time, starting with about a pound a
day and gradually increasing the amount to five to eight pounds a day. Johanna Brandt reported a number of cures from
cancer through the employment of the raw grape diet, and others have used it successfully in the treatment of constipation,
rheumatism, catarrh, gallstones, eczema, jaundice, malaria, hemorrhages, and other ailments. Grape cures are even
recommended in certain mental disturbances and in weakened conditions of the entire muscular system, including the
heart.
Raw cabbage juice has been used with remarkable success in treating ulcers. Dr. Garnett Chaney at Stanford University
treated 63 ulcer patients with one quart of raw cabbage juice per day, and 60 of these showed pronounced healing. In most
cases, the pain disappeared within a few days and recovery was complete within three weeks or less. Six patients with
"huge" ulcers required 56 days of treatment. The three patients who failed to respond had dense scar tissue in the stomach
and liver damage before treatment started. Dr. Chaney’s experience was almost duplicated by Dr. William Shive and his
colleagues at the University of Texas. Dr. Shive found that raw cabbage juice — as well as the juices of some other
vegetables — tends to prevent ulcers and to cure them. He studied 100 cases in which the ulcerous condition was so
severe that the use of the bland diet and anti-ulcer drugs had failed. But the drinking of one quart of fresh, raw cabbage
juice per day by these patients brought about marked beneficial results. The use of raw cabbage juice in amounts less than
one quart per day promotes less rapid recovery than does the full quota but it is of definite value, and even a glass of juice
per day tends to reduce or eliminate the pain in some cases. The raw cabbage juice is also an important aid to normal
elimination and it improves the general health of the ulcer patient as well as promoting recovery of his primary affliction.
SCRAPED APPLE DIET
The "scraped apple" diet is an old German folk remedy for both diarrhea and constipation. Modern scientists have
employed raw apple in the treatment of these same conditions with very good effects. T. L. Birnberg treated diarrhea in
children with raw, grated apple and obtained completely successful results in 88 per cent of all cases. He noted relief from
abdominal pain achieved almost immediately, normal stools achieved in 24 hours, reduction of fever within 48 hours, and
disappearance of mucus in 60 hours. The beneficial effects of raw apple in these cases are attributed to the presence of
“hydrophilic colloids" in the food which absorb excessive water and furnish bulk to control peristalsis.

Of particular interest is the therapeutic value of raw honey. This food has long been known as a "folk medicine" for hay
fever and asthma, and recent experimental studies conducted at the William Beaumond  General Hospital in El Paso, Texas
have shown that raw honey containing the pollen of the offending grasses or weeds builds up a natural resistance to these
agents in the body, thereby offering relief to the hay fever victims. Studies made by P E. Weesen of the Frauenfelder
Sanitarium of Europe showed that patients given raw honey exceeded all others both in strength and healthy appearance.
Dr. Paula Emrich tested 100 children, and found that those given raw honey achieved a 12 per cent increase in hemoglobin
content of their blood over the others. Dr. Rolleder gave a smaller quantity of raw honey to 58 children of an Austrian
orphanage and noted a hemoglobin increase of 8 1/2 per cent. Dr. Schacht of Wiesbaden claimed to have cured many
supposedly hopeless cases of gastric and intestinal ulcers with raw honey, and the celebrated Father Sebastian Kneipp
remarked that "smaller ulcers in the stomach are quickly contracted, broken and healed by it." Surprisingly, raw honey has
even been given to treat diabetes. Dr. A. Y.

usually becomes hypersensitive to that food for a period lasting from a
few weeks to several months. After this, the sensitivity to the offending
food gradually declines.
If during the hypersensitive period you are occasionally exposed to the
allergenic food, then an immediate strong reaction may be triggered
resulting in pain, weakness, a rash or whatever its characteristic effect is
on your body. If this is done repeatedly but separated by at least f our
days between exposures, this may delay the complete recovery but is
not likely to result in serious internal damage. However, if you use this
food again daily then after a while you do not get any more reaction,  but
a chronic condition may gradually dev elop.
Generally, it is essential to avoid the offending food as much as possible
for an extended period in order to heal yourself completely. Depending
on the severity of your initial symptoms or degenerative disease this may
be from a few months up to sev eral years.
Elimination Testing
For five days or longer you abstain from all commonly eaten food. Best
to combine elimination testing with a cleanse as recommended in
chapter 6. Otherwise,  you may just eat low -allergy foods such as cooked
vegetables and preferably varieties that you have not recently eaten.
Flavour with olive oil and salt. During this time, try to minimize other
potential allergic influences such as solvents, or car exhaust fumes,
house dust, moulds, gas, or cigarette smoke, basically anything with
strong or unusual smells.
Starting on the second day there may be more or less troublesome
withdrawal symptoms with cravings for the food or stimulant to which one
is addicted, be it alcohol, nicotine or other drugs.
There may be headaches, dizziness, weakness and other problems.
On the fourth day these symptoms usually subside,  and one begins to
feel much better. Often symptoms of long -standing ailments such as 45
 arthritis, heart disease or schizophrenia may disappear o r improve as
well.
If you do not feel right by the fifth day, it may be better to extend the fast
until you improve. Chemicals and drugs, whether medical or recreational,
take much longer to clear from the body. It may lessen discomfort if you
take a stron g laxative on the first morning of the fast. In addition,  drink a
lot of water or diluted herb tea.
After the Cleanse or on the morning of day six, have a small amount of
test food. Check your pulse for a full minute before, and 30 and 60
minutes after th e meal. Always test sitting in the same position, and when
the pulse rate is not increased from any previous activity.
Then have several smaller test meals of different foods during the day.
In the beginning, test mainly foods that you expect to be safe. Test
suspected allergenic foods at the last meal of the day so that you can
sleep off any prolonged reactions. Use suspect foods only individually or
with previously tested non -reactive foods. Before and after each test
meal make the pulse tests and any ot her relevant tests. If the pulse rate
increases by more than 10% after the meal, then this indicates a potential
allergy. The greater the increase - the stronger the allergy. If there is a
reaction involving a combination of newly tested foods, repeat test ing the
individual foods at a later date.
In addition,  make other tests relevant to your condition. W ith weak
eyesight check your reading ability using a wall chart; school children
may be tested for clarity of writing and speech. Check the range and pain
level of impaired joints or muscles and  watch out for sign of bodily or
emotional discomfort. Keep a  detailed diary of the pulse rates,
measurements and any unusual happenings, feelings, discomfort and so
on.
Usually,  urine and saliva become more acid after a reaction. You may
stop a strong reaction by taking 1 level teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate
(bakin g soda) and, if available, potassium as citrate, carbonate or
bicarbonate. Test offending foods again after three to six months. 46
 Commonly small infrequent amounts are then tolerated. Eat suspect or
problem foods not more than once a week. If conditions det eriorate
again, test again or adopt a safe low -allergy diet. The body is less
sensitive to allergic reactions when using alkalizers and digestive
enzymes.
THE ACID - ALKALINE BALANCE
Our blood is slightly alkaline, and the body makes every effort to maintain
this alkalinity at a constant level. For this purpose,  we normally have an
ample reserve of alkaline minerals.
Most of our food supplies minerals. The total balance of minerals in a
particular food may be either acid or alkaline. In plants strongly alkaline
metal ions such as sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium, are
combined with weak organic acids. A surplus of organic acids will make
the food taste acidic, as in f ruits. However, in the body organic acids are
metabolized, and this leaves an alkaline mineral residue. This makes
vegetables and fruits alkalizing, but individuals who are overacid
because of Candida and allergies often cannot oxidize all organic acids
and need to neutralize acidic food to avoid becoming even more acidic.
Animal tissue, on the other hand, contains a high percentage of strongly
acid phosphoric acid bound to mildly alkaline proteins. The proteins will
be metabolized,  and a strongly acid resi due remains. Accordingly, we
may classify our food as either alkaline -forming or as acid -forming.
• Alkaline -forming Foods  are sprouted seeds, vegetables and their
 juices, fruits, almonds, most legumes, the outer parts of
 potatoes, bananas, millet, buckwhe at and brown rice.
• Acid -forming Foods  are meat, fish, eggs, cheese, most grains
 and nuts (being high in phosphoric acid), and the core of potatoes.
• Neutral Foods are refined starches and sugar, fats and oils.
In order to maintain an ample alkaline body reserve, we may eat about
80% alkalizing to 20% acidifying food. There are food tables to show the
acid or alkaline equivalents. However, these are practically useless as 47
 some foods change their values in the bod y due to metabolic problems.
Sugar, which is chemically neutral  and even alkalizing fruits, can become
acid-forming in sensitive individuals due to the formation of lactic acid.
The same applies to any food to which you are allergic. On the other
hand, he avy meat eating can eventually lead to an over -alkaline
condition by slowing the metabolism and creating a deficiency of
metabolic acids.
Alkaline -forming food may also become acid -forming if it is incorrectly
combined with other foods, or when you are emotionally upset. While
seeds are commonly alkalizing if sprouted or fermented, when cooked,
minerals may not be available as they remain bo und to phytates, and
then may be acid -forming. All of this is contrary to what you would expect
by using acid -alkaline food tables. Furthermore, the mineral content of
foods varies greatly depending on soil and storage conditions, production
methods and co oking. Therefore, the only reliable method is to observe
your body, skin sensitivity, tendency towards inflammations, allergic
reactions, and test the acidity of your urine and saliva.
Alkalizing the Body
When our body is too acid it is also more sensitive  - emotionally as well
as physically. Skin and mucous membranes become very sensitive to
irritants, any allergic reactions are greatly intensified, and inflammations
may be intense and widespread. With Candida and leaky gut syndrome
the body generally is t oo acid.
The strongest alkalizing foods are spirulina, barley grass and wheatgrass
powder, fresh green vegetable juices and vegetable broth. Those who are
overacid and sensitive may become even more so with cider vinegar, kefir
and fruit acids. However, dissolving dolomite or magnesium oxide in
vinegar or lemon juice until nearly neutral makes it a highly alkalizing
remedy. Sodium  bicarbonate is most com monly used to alkalize the body.
On the other hand,  for those with raised blood pressure, high blood fat
or cholesterol levels and insensitive skin, acid fruits and their juices are
excellent without neutralization. In this case  potassium bicarbonate  may 48
 be used to alkalize. With muscle weakness try malic acid neutralized with
magnesium oxide or carbonate.
Take so much alkalizer that your urine is mostly above pH 7 or slightly
alkaline (pH 7 is neutral). To check your urine,  you may buy pH paper
with a range from 4 or 5 to 8 or 9 or you may use turmeric powder:
dissolve a teaspoonful in half a litre of methylated spirits (methanol),
shake and allow to settle, producing a yellow solution. For a test pour
some of this solution into a test tube or small drinking glass. Add a few
drops of urine or saliva. If it turns ruby red, then what was added had a
pH greater than 6.8 (neutral or alkaline). If it stays yellow, then the pH is
less than 6.8 (acid).
With digestive problems also c heck the saliva acidity.  Before a meal
the normal acidity of the saliva is 6.
