producing  Its Perfection  for mankind.  The  people  can  co-
operate  and  help  bring  It in; or they  can go on and  refuse
acceptance  of It; and  go down  in the discord  of their  own
destruction!  The  choice  is widi  mankind  today!  The  Great
Cyclic  Law  will  not wait!
Mankind  has been  given  opportunity,  embodiment  after
embodiment;  and  now  the Great  Cosmic  Light,  a Great
Wave  of which  is sweeping  into  the Earth  on the seventh
of this  month,  says  no longer  will  That  Light  wait  for the
choice  of mankind!  It is sweeping  into  action!  If mankind
insists  on allowing  the destruction  of the world  of appear-
ances  to act in This  Incoming  Activity,  then  hundreds  of
thousands  of mankind  will  have  lost their  opportunity.
I trust  there  is not one  of the Beloved  "I AM"  Students
in New  York,  who  wants  to take  that  chance!  Now  re-
member,  We  are  speaking  Heart  to Heart  tonight.  Be-
cause  Our  Love  is so great  for you,  who  have  made  earnest
sincere  effort—in  the Acknowledgment  of your  Presence;
We insist  if you  will  stand  with  Us, you  shall  not fail—not
one!  That  is how  Great  Our  Love  and  how  great  the Love
of the Messengers  is for you;  who  were  willing  to go forth,
when  they  could  have  been  Free!
It seems  incredible,  Beloved  Ones,  there  could  exist
among  your  wonderful  civilization  today,  such  viciousness
in the  feeling  of mankind.  I speak  plainly  to you,  Dear
Hearts;  for I want  you  to feel your  Authority,  your  Ability,
your  Power,  to stand  so firmly  with  your  "Mighty  I AM
Presence,"  no longer  can discord  touch  you  or your  world. DISCOURSE  VIII  41
We want  you  to be Free,  but We cannot  do this  for you!
We can  help  you  tremendously!  That  is what  I am  en-
deavoring  to do tonight;  and  I do say in all humbleness,
since  I began  This  Activity  in San  Francisco,  the western
part of your  United  States  has  made  enormous  advance-
ment.  Won't  you  accept  My Humble  Efforts  here  thruout
New  York;  and  never  let a moment's  discord  touch  you  or
your  world  again ? Pour  out Love  and  Blessings  to all man-
kind—Oh,  no matter  what  their  mistakes  have  been!  Man-
kind  is full of mistakes.  Who  isn't?  Who  shall  judge  what
mistake  is greater  than  another?  All  is a falling  short  of
Perfection!  Won't  you  take  that  attitude  and  just  let the
Power  of the Presence  pour  forth  Its Mighty  Activity  of the
Ascended  Masters'  Divine  Love?  As This  Good  Brother
called  to your  attention  tonight,  let us take  that  up in the
Activity  of the  Release  of the  Love  from  your  Presence.
How  can  it be? Only  by your  attention  held  to your  Pres-
ence  and  the call thru  your  Power  of Qualification;  for the
Power  of the Ascended  Masters'  Divine  Love;  to flow  forth
thru you  and  out into  your  world,  thru  those  Mighty  Light
Rays  going  forth  from  the Presence.  Call  them  into  action
without  limit!  The  Presence  does  not limit  you,  don't  you
see that?
You can call  the Presence  to project  a thousand  or thou-
sands  of Its Rays  everywhere  to carry  out Its Harmonious
Activity  in the bodies  of mankind;  into  conditions  every-
where;  into  your  city,  to give  the Protection  which  it needs
so much.  You  will  never  know  how  much,  I tell  you 42 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES
frankly.  Remember,  Beloved  Ones,  and  I say this  with  all
earnestness,  you  now  become  the Guardians  of the Light  in
New  York!  The  Messengers  have  fulfilled  their  part  in
the United  States.  The  students,  as We  told  them  in the
West,  are now  the Guardians  of This  Light;  and  those  who
turn aside  from  This  Stream  of Light,  will  regret  it thru
the time  that  is to come.
This  Light  is True!  The  Instruction  which  Beloved  Saint
Germain  has brought  forth  is True!  The  Experiences  of this
Good  Brother  are True!  and  there  is not a single  discrep-
ancy  in those  books—not  one!  If mankind  would  clear
away  all viciousness  in the feeling,  the people  would  see the
Truth  which  is there;  BUT  NO  ONE  CAN  SEE  THE
TRUTH  WHOSE  FEELING  WORLD  IS FILLED
WITH  VICIOUSNESS  AND  UNKINDESS!  Love,  the
Ascended  Masters'  Divine  Love,  is the Open  Door  to the
Fulness  of This  Truth!  Each  one  must  call  forth  the As-
cended  Masters'  Love  from  the Presence,  to take  command
of his or her mind  and  body  and  hold  Its Dominion!
So tonight,  My  Joy is Boundless,  Oh Beloved  Ones,  for
having  the Privilege  of rendering  This  Service  to you.  Dear
Ones,  do you  think  a thing  is not tangible,  because  you  do
not see it? Don't  make  that  mistake,  I plead  with  you!  The
most  Tangible  Things  on the face  of This  Earth  or any-
where  else today,  are Those  Rays  of Light  going  forth  from
My Heart  into  yours!  Don't  make  any  mistake!  I am not
speaking  of this  form  standing  before  you  (Mr.  Ballard's).
I am speaking  of My Form  which  stands  here  by this Good DISCOURSE  VIII  43
Messenger.  My Form  and  Light  are Limitless  and  I am not
a dis-embodied  spirit,  don't  make  any  mistake  about
THAT  either!
Now  Dear  Ones,  tonight,  it is My  Privilege  to anchor
These  Streams  of Light  within  your  Hearts;  and  give  you
the Courage,  Strength  and  Feeling  of your  Ability  to call
the Release  of the Powers  of your  Presence  into  action;  to
set you  and  your  world  Free  and  into  Divine  Order.  This
Service  is being  rendered  for every  SINCERE  STUDENT
in New  York  tonight;  and  all who  will  accept  It, will  have
Its Blessing  and  Benefit!  One  day,  you  will  know  We  are
more  Tangible  than  you  are.  Our  Bodies  are  Eternal,
Wholly  Perfect,  and  We have  come  from  Those  Great  Oc-
taves  of Light,  to render  This  Service  to the Earth!  Beloved
Saint  Germain,  Jesus  and  Kuthumie  were  trained  by My-
self, in this  Identical  Understanding  of the "Mighty  I AM
Presence,"  which  Beloved  Saint  Germain  has given  to you,

inadequate and inappropriately administered.
My advice on the proper dosing is available in chapter 11.
T wo basic principles on which I base my approach are:
1. Women never stop making estrogen—it is prob-
ably the only hormone that hardly ever has to bereplaced. It continues to be made by fat cells,skin cells, and the adrenal glands.
2. Women do stop making progesterone. Because
of this, they are always at risk for developingbreast cancer, uterine cancer, ovarian cancer,colon cancer, and other cancers from estrogen. 85 MENOP AUSE AND PERIMENOPAUSE  MY APPROACH
When certain hormone levels decrease, for either natural or
surgical reasons, the pituitary responds by putting out certainhormones of its own to stimulate the ovaries to make morehormones. (The pituitary and hypothalamus glands are thestructures of the brain that control other glands throughoutthe body.) In this case, the pituitary puts out a hormone calledluteinizing hormone (LH) to stimulate the ovaries to makemore hormones. LH may be the primary cause of the vascularsymptoms women experience when they are going throughmenopause—the hot flashes and night sweats.
It is my feeling that the pituitary’s primary reason for
trying to raise ovarian hormone levels is so the woman can getpregnant. Once the pituitary is convinced a woman no longerneeds to procreate, it stops sending out the signals and the hotflashes and related symptoms disappear. However, if thewoman is placed on high levels of replacement hormones, thepituitary gets confused. It becomes convinced again that thewoman is trying to get pregnant, and so whenever there is asignificant drop (e.g., from stopping Premarin), it puts outLH and the symptoms recur.
The ovaries put out four different hormones—estrogen,
progesterone, testosterone, and DHEA. Replacement of anyor all of these hormones can alleviate perimenopausal andmenopausal symptoms. The primary aim of the replacementof hormones is to keep the woman healthy and to prevent thebody from deteriorating.
Since I look at estrogen as a potentially toxic and fat-
creating hormone, and since the body never stops makingestrogen, I take a relatively sparing approach to its use. Iprimarily prescribe estrogen for several reasons—to help86 THE MIRACLE OF BIO-IDENTICAL HORMONES  alleviate hot flashes or night sweats, to help with “brain fog,”
and to relieve vaginal dryness. I will be discussing dosages,along with the various types of natural bio-identical estrogenavailable, in chapter 11. About two years prior to menopausewomen stop ovulating, which means they stop producingprogesterone. This causes them to experience an increase inPMS, breast tenderness, cramps, and related symptoms. Theremay be a development of fibroids or fibrocystic disease in thebreast, both being conditions caused by estrogen when thereis not enough progesterone.
Progesterone is one of the most important hormones in a
woman’s body and, in my view, is probably the only hormonethat has to be replaced after menopause. T estosterone andDHEA are two other hormones I often prescribe for mypatients. I discuss the usual recommended dosages andapplications in chapter 11.
THE BENEFITS OF PROGESTERONE
Looking over the stories of my patients presented in this book,
you can see that even though they had various medicalproblems, every one of them had conditions related to adeficiency of progesterone. Keep in mind that every problemrelated to estrogen is created by a progesterone deficiency.Giving women natural progesterone takes away menstrualcramps, PMS, breast tenderness, menstrual migraines, andasthma. It prevents fibroids, endometriosis, fibrocystic disease,and estrogen-induced cancers.
The benefits of progesterone after menopause are as follows:
It can eliminate hot flashes and prevent and treat osteoporosis.It is a natural anti-depressant—it is the feel-good hormone forwomen. Progesterone is thermogenic—it helps fat to burn. It87 MENOP AUSE AND PERIMENOPAUSE  prevents Alzheimer’s disease, is great for the heart, and restores
the libido (estrogen does nothing for the libido).
Throughout this book are numerous references to the
benefits of progesterone in terms of preventing estrogen-inducedcancer. It helps eliminate attention deficit disorder (ADD) andis the number one hormone for lowering insulin levels, therebyhelping to prevent obesity and adult-onset diabetes.
WHAT ABOUT TESTOSTERONE?
The ovaries are the primary (but not the only) source of testos-
terone in women. My feeling is that testosterone is the secondmost important hormone to be replaced, after progesterone.Again, it certainly is a lot more important to replace thanestrogen. In women, testosterone is the main hormone thatprevents Alzheimer’s (progesterone is second). It is the numberone hormone for preventing and treating osteoporosis (proges-terone is second). It is the number one hormone for the heartbecause there are more testosterone receptor sites in heartmuscle than in any other tissue (250,000 people die ofcongestive heart failure every year, caused by weakening of theheart muscle). You cannot build muscle without testosterone,so it helps keep muscles toned; it gives women more energyand makes them feel more assertive. T estosterone is alsonecessary for an interest in sex; women often begin fantasizingabout sex around 6 weeks after starting on testosteroneand progesterone.
Another benefit of testosterone is that it can, when used
correctly, that is, when used in tandem with certain exercises,eliminate urinary incontinence in about six days.88 THE MIRACLE OF BIO-IDENTICAL HORMONES  DHEA— THE ANTI-AGING HORMONE
Forty percent of the DHEA in a woman’s body is produced by
the ovaries; the other 60 percent comes mainly from the adren-als. However, as time passes, a woman’s DHEA levels go down.
This hormone is an important part of the immune system
and helps to prevent cancer, heart disease, and arthritis. Womenwith the highest levels of DHEA have the lowest incidence ofbreast cancer. DHEA also helps to prevent the “bad” cholesterol(LDL) from oxidizing. It is a precursor to estrogen and testos-terone, so it can help to alleviate hot flashes. It is also considereda fat-burning hormone.
Surprisingly, even though DHEA is a very powerful
hormone, it can be purchased over the counter as a foodsupplement in drug and health food stores. This by itself is atestament to the lack of information about hormones amongmedical practitioners. Like any other hormone, it should beused correctly, and only if there is a deficiency.89 MENOP AUSE AND PERIMENOPAUSE  HORMONES FOR WOMEN —
THE “HOW-TO” CHAPTER
chapter ELEVEN
The replacement of natural hormones is not an exact science. It
requires a team approach among the patient, the doctor, and thecompounding pharmacist.
Over time, dosages may have to be adjusted, based not so
much on lab tests as on symptoms. For one thing, hormonelevels can vary through the course of the day. For another,every person’s hormone pattern is unique; there is no one-size-fits-all dosage. However, there are certain truisms. Forinstance, it’s fair to generalize that in postmenopausal women,the estrogen level is lower but estrogen is still being produced,testosterone levels are much lower, DHEA levels are at least 40to 50 percent lower, and progesterone levels are virtuallynon-existent.
The dosages and protocols that I recommend in this book
are based on feedback from and experience with the thousandsof men and women I have treated. If you feel that a certainapproach might be appropriate for yourself, make notes anddiscuss it with your doctor. If he or she feels comfortable withthe suggestions, a prescription may be obtained, to be filled by acompounding pharmacy. These are regular pharmacies that also
91have pharmacists specially trained in compounding various
pharmaceuticals, including natural bio-identical hormones.
If your doctor is reluctant to deal with natural hormones,
I suggest contacting a compounding pharmacy and askingthem to recommend a physician who is amenable to naturalbio-identical hormone replacement therapy.
PROGESTERONE
Progesterone is the number one hormone that has to be
replaced in most women as they approach and go throughmenopause. Doctors frequently say that if a woman doesn’thave a uterus, she doesn’t need progesterone. This is not correct.As we have seen, progesterone is an essential hormone forprotection against cancer and for addressing a wide spectrum ofmedical conditions. The level of progesterone drops as a personages. Replacing it as part of an HRT regimen can be a keystoneto good health. The benefits of natural bio-identical proges-terone have been stated repeatedly throughout this book. It isapplied as a transdermal cream that is absorbed through theskin fairly rapidly. Giving hormones as a cream allows them tobypass the liver initially.
The problem with the oral form of bio-identical proges-
terone, as recommended in Suzanne Somers’ books,
The Sexy
Years and Ageless, is that it goes directly to the liver and gets
converted to another hormone called pregnanediol. The samething happens with the oral progesterone called Prometrium.This too is bio


 for
Christmas. After buying Dana a huge engagement ring, Stephen urged her
to buy the best of everything for the ceremony. They planned a lavish
honeymoon in Paris—or rather, Stephen planned it and sprang the news on
Dana. She was a little distresse d by not having been consulted, but it was
hard to utter the slightest complaint in the face of Stephen’ s overwhelming
generosity.
The bubble didn’ t burst all at once. The first hint that something went
wrong came when Stephen gave Dana an exercise video for tightening the
muscles of her bottom—women were prone to softness there, he said, even
when they looked as sensational as Dana. A week later he nonchalantly
asked if she had ever considere d having a little corrective surgery. Despite
herself, Dana was shocked—she had no intention of letting Stephen make
her over. Stephen backed of f, but he was clearly displeased. W alking around
a corner in the office the next day, Dana overheard a receptionist remark,
“Looks like Cinderella is in for a little liposuction.” She acted as if she
hadn’ t heard it, but doubts had begun to creep in.
They had their first fight when Dana broke down and related the snide
remark to Stephen, who got furious and threatened to fire the receptionist
on the spot. “I don’t think that’s the point,” Dana said. “I’m afraid you don’t
want me unless you get to turn me into someone I’m not.” She knew all too
well where her face and figure fell short of ideal, but how important was
that to him? Stephen evaded the question and treated her coldly  for the rest
of the day. When Friday came, the night they usually spent together, he said
he was too busy, but Dana got the distinct impression he was withholding
sex to punish her.
The comparison to Cinderella was an apt one, but there was to be no
fairy-tale ending. A week before they were to be married, Dana accidentally
pressed the wrong phone button at the office, only to overhear Stephen
talking to another woman. The tone of his voice and the subject of the
conversation left no doubt that they were on intimate terms. Terribly hurt,
Dana walked out of the office and never came back. She refused to takeStephen’ s calls, which quickly stopped. He protested that he still loved her,
but Dana thought it sounded like an act to preserve his self-image. When he
lamented how much money would be lost if they didn’ t go throu gh with the
ceremony, she burst into tears and hung up. Stephen never called again.
On the surface it would be difficult to imagine a courtship that came
closer to the romantic ideal. Far more than most men, Stephen had the
means and the desire to sweep a woman off her feet. He made Dana feel
special and important, lavishing  all his attention on her. But lovely as it
seemed, this courtship had little to do with love and almost nothing to do
with trust. What was really happening?
The key word here is image.  Stephen was mainly interested in enhancing
his self-image as a magician who could turn ordinary women into
goddesses. Not only did he do this professionally but in personal
relationships he had to be the star—he would probably have tried to
“correct” the looks of the most beautiful woman on earth given the chance.
His paying court, from the gifts to the sex, was a performance; Dana was
quite right not to utter the slightest criticism of his sexual abiliti es, since he
would have reacted badly. If they had gotten married, he would have lost
interest in her and gone on to have affairs. One has only to note how
completely he had excluded his first wife from his life to realize how much
he needed new conquests to support his inflated self-image.
The only way Dana could have succeeded with Stephen would have been
to allow  herself to be bought; fortunately, her sense of self was based not on
image but on her feelings. Bein g swept off her feet never felt quite real.
Young as she was, she could tell that Stephen wasn’ t interested in
connecting with her inner self and that he was even less interested in
sharing his own.
In a way this story describes almost the perfect courtship—all we have to
do is reverse everything that happened in it. A perfect courtship unfolds like
a flower, as each partner becom es more comfortable exposing their inner
world. It is a shared experie nce, with decisions made mutually and
boundaries respe cted. One partner doesn’ t try to push the other beyond their
boundaries, knowing that stretching a boundary is a gradual, delicate matter.
The essence of courtship is communion, which this one totally lacked.
As hurt as she was, Dana was also secretly relieved that the wedding to
Stephen didn’ t come off. Being turned into Cinderella had not fulfilledinner needs that I would call spiritual. Spiritually we all need things such as
forgiveness, love, and compassion, but before any of these can be realized,
we need  to satisfy the most basic spiritual need: support on our path. You
cannot expect another person to immediately understand your experiences
as you enter into new and often confusing stages of spirituality, but if
sharing is to take place, you must build a basis for satsang. This basis must
include equality, sensitivity, and communication.
Equality.
Being seen as equally important to your partner is a right many people
cannot assert. Because we are all unequal in terms of intellige nce, status,
money, skills, and talents, these factors can become dominant in a
relationship. A woman may feel, as Dana did, that the man who courts her
has earned so many of life’s advantages that she should be grateful for his
success. The happiness she could expect in such a marriage, however,
would have little spiritual validity.
In spirit everyone is equal. This isn’t just an abstract concept; it is the one
perception that can overcome ego. If I feel superior to you, my superiority
is roote d in self-image. A self-image based upon money, for example,
would make me think that I should be appreciated for all I have  given you,
which puts you at a disadvantage, since your own right to be appreciated
doesn’ t have a comparable basis. When Stephen took Dana to an expensive
restaurant, he put himself on a superior footing in his eyes.  Thus he was
protected from any criticism she might make, giving himself the right to
say, “Look at what I’m providing. How can you be unhappy with me?”
Equality isn’t based upon external factors or images. We all have an
equal right to be appreciated, respected, and understood. Some  men find it
hard to extend this concept to a woman’ s emotions. They were not taught to
value their own feelings, which get expressed only as a last resort. But to
accept another person means accepting her emotions—there is nothing
more basic or intrinsic. If this equality doesn’ t exist, how can spirit really
grow? Spirit isn’ t an emotion, but it provides an opening to our inner selves.
You have to feel that your partner wants to understand you and your
feelings before you can share experiences you barely understand yourself.
Sensitivity.Being able to sense what is going on inside another person is a skill that
has to be developed like any other. It isn’t an easy one to acquir e; you have
to feel secure on the level of intuition, and you need to be able to accept
complexity and conflicting emotions. The question “What are you feeling
right now?” always has the answer “More than one thing.” Sensitivity
requires setting aside your notions of what the other person is feeling, what
you think she should feel, and what you hope she isn’t feeling. Whenever
the ego intrudes, sensitivity cannot be present.
Sensitivity is easily crushed, but there is also social prejudi ce which
holds that women are too sensitiv e (as men see it), and that sensitivity in a
man makes him less masculine. Men therefore can find a ready excuse for
shutting out others by claiming, “I don’t understand why you feel this way”
or “I don’t have the slightest idea what’ s going on with you.” If your
mission in life is to protect your self-image, then opening up to another
person’ s feelings runs contrary to your mission. To be sensiti ve you will
have to abandon  being right all the time, being in control, havin g needs that
must dominate over the needs of others, and so forth.
In terms of Dana and Stephen, it was vital for Stephen not to be sensitive
to any sign of discomfort from the woman he was wooing. He knew only
one mode of courtship—Prince Charming sweeping Cinderella  off her feet
—and princes don’t have flaws. If he sensed that Dana wasn’ t satisfied with
his lavis h generosity, he would have had to face the fact that everything he
was doing was a performan ce. Most of us are made  extremely
uncomfortable by extreme generosity; it has a suffocating effect and makes
the receiver feel inadequate compared with the giver. Dana felt all these
things, but Stephen couldn’ t afford to be sensitive to them; he had no other
way to “love” her, and to have allowed her to say how she wanted to be
loved would have taken power out of his hands, which would have been
intolerable.
Communication.
Communion


conscious intelligence will open up a pathway, whereby both of
you will meet, according to the irresistible and changeless  flow of
your own subconscious mind. Have a keen desire to give the best that
is in you of love, devotion, and co-operation.
Be receptive to this gift of love, which you have given to your
subconscious mind.
• How to attract the ideal wife
Affirm as follows: “I now attract the right woman who is in
complete accord with me. This is a spiritual union because i t is divine
love functioning through the personality of someone with whom I
blend perfectly. I know I can give to this woman love, light, pea ce,
and joy. I feel and believe I can make this woman’s life full, complete,
and wonderful. “I now decree that she possesses the following
qualities  and attributes: She is spiritual, loyal, faithful, and true. She
is har-monious, peaceful, and happy. We are irresistibly at tracted to
each other. Only that which belongs to love, truth, and beauty ca n
enter my experience. I accept my ideal companion now.”
As you think quietly and with interest on the qualities and attributes,
which you admire in the companion you seek, you will build the
mental equivalent into your mentality. Then, the deeper current s of
your subconscious mind will bring both of you together in divine
order.
• No need for third mistake
Recently a teacher said to me, “I have had three husbands and all
three have been passive, submissive, and dependent on me to m ake all
decisions and govern everything. Why do I attract such type men?”
I asked her whether she had known that her second hus-band was
the
effeminate type, and she replied, “Of course not. Had I known, I
would not have married him.” Apparently she had not learned
anything from the first mistake. The trouble was with her pe rsonality
 149  make-up. She was very masculine, domineering, and unconsciously
wanted someone who would be submissive and passive so that she
could play the dominant role. All this was unconscious motivation,
and her subconscious pic-ture attracted to her what she subject ively
wanted. She had to learn to break the pattern by adopting the right
prayer process.
• How she broke the negative pattern
The above-mentioned woman learned a simple truth. When you
believe you can have the type of man you idealize, it is done unto y ou,
as you believe. The following is the specific prayer she used to break
the old subconscious pattern and attract to her the ideal mate : “I am
building into my mentality the type of man I deeply desire. T he man I
attract for a husband is strong, powerful, loving, very masculine,
successful, honest, loyal, and faithful. He finds love and happiness
with me. I love to follow where he leads.
“I know he wants me, and I want him. I am honest, sincere, loving,
and kind. I have wonderful gifts to offer him. They are good will, a
joyous heart, and a healthy body. He offers me the same. It is mutual.
I give and I receive.
Divine intelligence knows where this man is, and the deeper
wisdom of my subconscious mind is now bringing both of us together
in its own way, and we recognize each other immediately. I re lease
this request to my subconscious mind, which knows how to bring my
request to pass. I  give thanks for the perfect answer.”
She prayed in the above manner night and morning, affirm-ing these
truths and knowing that through frequent occupation of the mind she
would reach the mental equivalent of that which she sought.
• The answer to her prayer
Several months went by. She had a great number of dates and soci al
engagements, none of which was agreeable to her. When she was
about to question, waiver, doubt, and vacillate, she reminded herself
that the infinite intelligence was bringing it to pass in  its own way and
 150  that there was nothing to be con-cerned about. Her final decree  in her
divorce proceedings was granted which brought her a great sens e of
release and mental freedom.
Shortly afterward she went to work as a receptionist in a doctor’s
office. She told me that the minute she saw the physician she kne w he
was the man she was praying about. Apparently he knew it, too,
because he proposed to her the first week she was in the  office, and
their subsequent marriage was ideally happy. This physician  was not
the passive or submissive type, but was a real man, a form er football
player, an outstanding athlete, and was a deeply spiritual ma n though
he was completely devoid of any sectarian or denominational
affiliation.
She got what she prayed for because she claimed it men-tal ly until
she  reached the point of saturation. In other words, she mentally and
emotionally united with her idea, and it became a part of her  in the
same way that an apple becomes a part of her blood stream.
• Should I get a divorce?
Divorce is an individual problem. It cannot be generalized. In some
cases, of course, there never should have been a mar-riage. I n some
cases, divorce is not the solution, no more so than marriage is t he
solution for a lonely man. Divorce may be right for one pers on and
wrong for another. A divorced woman may be far more sincere and
noble than many of her married sisters who perhaps are living a lie.
For example, I once talked with a woman whose husband was a
dope fiend, an ex-convict, a wife-beater, and a non-provider. Sh e had
been told it  was wrong to get a divorce. I explained to her tha t
marriage is of the heart. If two hearts blend harmoniously, lovi ngly,
and sincerely, that is the ideal marriage. The pure action of the heart is
love.
Following this explanation she knew what to do. She knew in her
heart that there is no divine law which compelled her to be
browbeaten, intimidated, and beaten because someone said, “I
pronounce you man and wife.”
 151  If you are in doubt as to what to do, ask for guidance, knowing that
there is always an answer, and you will receive it. Follow the lead that
comes to you in the silence of your soul. It speaks to you in peace.
• Drifting into divorce
Recently a young couple, married for only a few months, was
seeking a divorce. I discovered that the young man had a consta nt fear
that his wife would leave him. He expected rejec-tion, and he bel ieved
that she would be unfaithful. These thoughts haunted his mind, and
became an obsession with him. His mental attitude was one of
separation and suspicion. She felt unresponsive to him; it was his own
feeling or atmosphere of loss and separation operating through t hem.
This brought about a condition or action in accordance with the
mental pat-tern behind it. There is a law of action and react ion, or
cause and effect. The thought is the action, and the response of t he
subconscious mind is the reaction.
His wife left home and asked for a divorce, which is what he fe ared
and believed she would do.
• Divorce begins in the mind
Divorce takes place first in the mind; the legal proceeding s follow
after. These two young people were full of resentment, fear, suspicion,
and anger. These attitudes weaken, exhaust, and debilitate the whol e
being. They learned that hate divides and that love unites. They began
to realize what they had been doing with their minds. Neither one of
them knew the law of  mental action, nor they were misusing the ir
minds and bringing on chaos and misery. These two people went bac k
together at my suggestion and experimented with prayer therapy.
They began to radiate love, peace, and good will to each other. Each
one practiced radiating harmony, health, peace, and love to the other,
and they alternated in the reading of the
Psalms every night. Their marriage is growing more beautiful  every
day.

 152  • The nagging wife
Many times the reason the wife nags is because she gets n o
attention. Oftentimes, it is a craving for love and affection. Give your
wife attention, and show your appreciation. Praise and ex-alt  all her
many good points.
There is also the nagging type of woman who wants to make the
man conform to her particular pattern. This is about the quic kest way
in the world to get rid of a man.
The wife and the husband must cease being scavengers— always
looking at the petty faults or errors in each other. Let e ach give
attention and praise for the constructive and wonder-ful qualit ies in
the other.
• The brooding husband
If a man begins to brood, grows morbid against his wife because  of
the things she said or did, he is, psychologically speak-ing,
committing adultery.
One of the meanings of adultery is idolatry, i.e., giving attent ion to
or uniting mentally with that which is negative and destructi ve. When


 best foods possible, the best pro cesses possible, and in working with these ideals, we
work with the reversal process. As you have built up the disease through the acute, subacute, chronic and degenerative stages, we
reverse and correct these conditions as we go back over our past problem s. As you have built up conditions in the body through
foods, pollution, overwork, enervation, life style, etc., we have to learn our lesson and go back over them and relive them, so to
speak. You can expect all of these problems to return as you get well.  This is best described in my book DOCTOR -PATIENT
HANDBOOK. If you truly want to get well, this process must be followed. We find that “Hering’s Law of Cure” appears in the
reversal process as healing takes place. In this process the body eliminates iatrog enic symptoms and diseases, those things
caused by treatments that were suppressive in nature and usually involved a drug of some kind. Latent settlements of any fore ign
accumulations leave the body mainly through the bowel as a liquified form of mucus or catarrh. For example, we had an asthma
patient who received much relief from the tissue cleansing treatment but developed an extreme uterine abscess which broke sho rtly
after the treatment and discharged the foulest material possible and continued for a mo nth after. She lost extreme weight and will
not gain until after the discharge culminates. She needed the assistance of a tissue cleansing treatment to bring on an elimi nation.
This latent tumor or abscess was suppressed. Discharge from lungs, bronchials, head, ears and nose for 17 years, and of course,
always suppressed it with some form of drug. I have said so many times —if you suppress or don’t allow a discharge to continue
until you are clean inside, you will develop a growth —and she did just that.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR SKIN BRUSHING
I believe skin brushing is one of the finest of all baths. NO soap can wash the skin as clean as the new skin you have under the old.
You make new skin every 24 hours on the body. The skin will be as clears as the blood is. Skin  brushing removes this top layer.
This helps to eliminate uric acid crystals, catarrh and various other acids in the body. The skin should eliminate two pounds  of
waste acids daily. Keep the skin active. No one can be well wearing clothes unless they brush  their skin. It is the greatest
method to remove the scurf rim as found in the eye, which denotes an underactive, poorly eliminating skin. Use a natural bris tle
brush with a long handle. It is not an expensive brush. DO NOT USE A NYLON BRISTLE BRUSH. Use t his brush dry, first
thing in the morning when you arise before putting clothes on and before any bath. Use it in any direction all over the whole  body
except the face. You can use a special face brush for the face.

DR. JENSEN’S BALANCED DAILY EATING REGI MEN
Make a habit of applying the following General Diet Regimen to your everyday living. This is a healthy way to live because wh en
followed, you do not have to think of vitamins, mineral elements or calories. I will give you more specific instruction for your
troubles after you have made this daily regimen automatic. The best diet, over a period of a day, is two different fruit, at least four
to six vegetables, one protein and one starch, with fruit or vegetable juices between meals. Eat at least two green  leafy vegetables a
day. The foods you eat daily should be 50 -60% raw. Consider this regimen a dietetic law.

RULES OF EATING
1. Do not fry foods or use heated oils.
2. If not entirely comfortable in mind and body from the previous meal time, you should mi ss the next meal.
3. Do not eat unless you have a keen desire for the plainest food.
4. Do not eat beyond your needs.
5. Be sure to thoroughly masticate your food.
6. Miss meals if in pain, emotionally upset, not hungry, chilled, overheated and during acut e illness.

GOOD THOUGHTS, GOOD WORDS, GOOD DEEDS
(The Formula for Healthy Living)
Learn to accept whatever decision is made.
Let the other person make a mistake and learn.
Learn to forgive and forget.
Be thankful and bless people.
Live in harmony —even if it is good for you.
Do not talk about your illness.
Gossip will kill you. Don’t let anyone gossip to you either. Gossip that comes through the grapevine is usually sour grapes.
Be by yourself every day for 10 minutes with the thought of how to make yoursel f a better person. Replace negative thoughts with
uplifting, positive thoughts.
Skin brush daily. Use a slant board daily.
Have citrus fruit in sections only, never in juice form.
Have only a limited amount of bread (with a lot of bowel trouble, no bread).
Exercise daily. Keep your spine limber. Develop abdominal muscles. Do sniff breathing.
Grass and sand walk for happy feet.
No smoking, alcoholic drinking, spitting or cussing. Keep away from unclean people.
Bed at sundown, 9 pm at the latest, if you are at all tired, fatigued or unable to do your work with vim and vigor. If you are sick,
you must rest more. Sleep out of doors, out of the city, in circulating air. Work out problems in the morning, don’t take the m to
bed with you.

FOOD HEALING LAWS
1. Nat ural food - 50-60% of the food eaten should be raw.

Urine Therapy by Dr. John F. O'Quinn  TUMOR OF BACK  Renales Federico N. Orozco { Mexico } "After a month of practicing Urine-therapy, I started the fasting. A very painful tumor disappeared of the center part of my back, which I had for over one and a half years. In addition I have been cured of insomnia, improving my average of sleep from 2 hours to 3 hours to a sleep of 6 to 7 hours. Even in a last attack of kidney stones, they dissolved with no need of drugs." 189  World-wide Case Histories of Urine Therapy by Gary Ward  TUMOR OF BREAST  “ Here is a case which proves that operations merely deal with effects and do not remove the cause of the disease from the body. The lady in question was forty-five, stout, and had a growth of some size on her left breast, the right one having been removed two years previously for a similar growth. She fasted and was treated according to my method for nineteen days, and then reported that the growth had entirely vanished. As she was still too fleshy she continued the  the fast. On the 28 day, she was examined and no trace of the lump was found, plus she looked much younger and far less matronly in figure.”  Urine Therapy by Dr. John F. O'Quinn  TUMOR OF BREAST  “ A case may now be cited regarding a young woman who had developed a growth in her breast. She was put on a diet of her own urine, plus tap-water, and used urine compresses.  In  a short time, four days, the growth had entirely disappeared.”  Urine Therapy by Dr. John F. O'Quinn  TUMOR OF BREAST   Ms. R.Y., Belgium "I started urine therapy as a result of a breast tumour I had had for a number of years. I drink six glasses of urine daily and rub it into my skin. From time to time I do a fasting cure for two or three days. A couple of times the cure caused me to vomit terribly. I also use urine compresses at night. The initial results were surprisingly convincing. The tumour reduced in size, the skin in that area regained its colour, the condition of my blood improved and according to a Touch for Health measurement, my energy on all levels was strong (it was previously quite weak). My skin and hair have noticeably improved. My eyes have improved and so have my ears, as I inject a few drops of urine into my ears and massage them. The only thing I miss is the laxative effect of urine, and so I sometimes give myself an enema. Now, however, I seem to miss noticeable progress, even though I continue to use urine therapy. For one week, I had a strong aversion to urine and doubted whether 190 it could help me. That has passed, and I now realise that working with urine therapy is not as simple as I initially thought. I regularly tell others about urine therapy, particularly for external skin problems. People are more willing to try urine externally than internally. Whenever I hear their reactions, I often think: If urine works as well internally as it does externally, then it is a fantastic remedy."   The Golden Fountain by Coen van der Kroon  TUMOR OF BREAST  Rose Alba P. Gonzalez { Mexico } "By means of this testimony I want to thank God who gave me back my health and to say to the people who have my problem, that it can be cured. It is only the question of making the method exactly and to have faith in God.  I very was distressed by a cyst that was detected in my breast. The doctor said that the only solution to know if the tumor is benign or malignant is to do a biopsy, or to operate directly to remove it. It gave me much sadness to think about this operation.   Months later the book of Urine-therapy of Chemistry arrived in my hands by Sonia. I read and had such great enthusiasm, that I finished two fasts of three days. My cyst disappeared completely and bless it to God I was with the doctor and he was astonished but he asked me what I had done and when I told him, he was very interested in the method."  World-wide Case Histories of Urine Therapy by Gary Ward  TUMOR OF CHEST  “For 25 years I carried on my chest a tumour which during one of my peregranations suddenly began to discharge thick pus. There was pain also. Swelling and inflammation around it aggravated the condition. Doctors advised immediate operation as they suspected it to be of cancer and warned that failing it, the malignant matter will spread to other regions of the body. I firmly refused to be operated.  I removed myself to Mamasar (Rajasthan) as advised by Gurudev Acharya Tulshiji. Auto-urine therapist Shri Bhojaraj Sancheti prescribed massage on the tumour. Within a short time, I found miraculous recovery. Within five-six months' time, the tumour practically disappeared. Though there is a spot signifying the tumour I am not inconvenienced with it. 191  Auto-urine therapy indeed is an excellent and cheap remedy. If followed properly and according to its rules it gives complete relief."  from Manav Mootra by R. M. Patel  TUMOR OF CHEST  “Shrmati Indumati Pandit is of 61 years. In 1968 she developed a painful tumour between her breasts. The civil surgeon on examination told that the tumour was not ripe for removal and after about a week he would return from his tour and then operate. Shri K. G. Pandit began urine therapy. He started massaging the affected part with urine and put hot urine packs also. Within five days' treatment, before the civil surgeon's expected return. The tumour disappeared and not even any sign remained of the painful tumour.”  from Manav Mootra by R. M. Patel  TUMOR OF FACE  Mrs. Maria Navarro { Mexico } "I had an ugly abscess in the cheek that was extended a little towards the ear. Then I applied the Urine several times day and little by little it disappeared. By the grace of God it disappeared. I am perfect."  World-wide Case Histories of Urine Therapy by Gary Ward  TUMOR OF HEAD  MRS. MA CONCEPTION { Mexico } "During two years and 5 operations they practiced on me. I had one tumor and another one was developing again. I already lost faith and then they prepared for the sixth operation.   A lady came to my room and said, do you want to be cured? I answered to her and she said me that I must leave the hospital and go to a conference in the temple of Our Lady of Consolation next Tuesday. I said to her what she was going to think it if I leave it to God.  When several Doctors got to review me I asked them, What if they were going to cure me by taking the tumor out, but again I would have another tumor grow? They did not answer. I only saw their eyes and I interpreted their silence.  192 Soon after I ask that I better leave the hospital and I want to go to my house. They said to me that was far better and there is a possible that I may live more time. They helped me to leave and to discharge me the from the hospital. When I arrived at my house I felt very alone and I thought, now what do I do? They will no longer operate on me, and here I am ill. Then I remembered what the lady said to me that Tuesday I should go to the temple.   I went to the temple and listened to the seated conference. Alone I was at the bottom and from that moment I knew that I was going to be cured. They gave a paper to me of how to do the therapy of the Urine. I did it exactly, including fasting. In two months I healed totally of that tumor and now I live a normal life, work and I request prayers to God that blesses so many ill people."  World-wide Case Histories of Urine Therapy by Gary Ward  TUMOR OF INTESTINE  Guillermo R. Orozco {Mexico} I am 59 years of age. I am an architect and work as a public servant for the government in the Jalisco state. As a student, I exceeded my sugar intake with cakes, taquitos, etc. In the year 1976, diverticulosis (mucus pouches) was detected in my intestine. It caused constant sourness in my stomach. I had to resort to any medicine. In 1980, gall stones by means of the ultrasound were detected. I was operated in October of 1995. In 1990 a tumor appeared in my left thigh, which was surgically removed.  In my recreational time, I played American football with the U.N.A.M. I got hit and I broke the partition of my nose that later caused chronic sinusitis. This hit prevented me to breathe by the nose. I also underwent a break of the thumb of the left hand. In 1992, diabetes and high blood pressure was detected. To all this I add that I have been quite a nervous and apprehensive person.   In 1990 to January of the present year, I began to take excessive medicine from an allopathic doctor. I understand this medicine has destroyed my antibodies. Because I began with pulmonary diseases I had strong colds every year. They lasted up to two months and because of more antibiotics that they gave me, I could not be cured.   I had the luck to study " the Word of God " (the Bible). It was in the Catholic


 a fever. Protein foods espe cially
are not digested by a diseased body, and as mentioned before, the waste products of protein indigestion are especially poisonous.
That is all the body needs when it is already down, another load of poison which it can’t eliminate due to weakness and enerv ation.
    Weight loss is usually associated with illness, as it should be! In times  of acute illness an otherwise healthy body loses its
appetite for food because it is pro -survival to stop eating. It is very hard to coax a sick animal to eat. Their bodies, not controlled
by a mind full of complex learned responses and false ideas, autom atically know that fasting is nature’s method of healing.
Contrary to popular understanding, digestion, assimilation, and elimination require the expenditure of considerable energy. T his
fact may contradict the reader’s experience because everyone has beco me tired when they have worked a long time without eating,
and then experienced the lift after eating. But an ill body cannot digest efficiently so instead of providing energy extracte d from
foods, the body is further burdened by yet another load of toxic material produced by fermented and putrefied food. This adds
insult to injury in a sick body that is already drowning in its own garbage.
    Worse, during illness most available vital force is already redirected into healing; it is not available for diges tion. It is important
to allow a sick body to proceed with healing and not to obstruct the process with unnecessary digestion or suppress the sympt oms
(which actually are the healing efforts) with drugs. If you have an acute illness, and you stop all food intake except for pure water
and herb teas, and perhaps some vegetable broth, or dilute non -sweet juice, you have relieved your body of an immense effort.
Instead of digesting, the body goes to work on catching up on healing. The body can and will almost i nevitably heal itself if the
sick person will have faith in it, co -operate with the body’s efforts by allowing the symptoms of healing to exist, reduce or
eliminate the intake of food to allow the body to marshal its energies, maintain a positive mental at titude and otherwise stay out of
the way.
    Many people intensely dread missing even one meal. These folks usually are and have been so toxic that their bodies had been
stashing uneliminated toxins in their fat for years. They are usually so addicted to  caffeine, cigarettes, alcohol, and so forth, that
when they had fasted, even briefly, their bodies were forced to dip into highly -polluted fat reserves while simultaneously the body
begins withdrawal. People like this who try to fast experience highly unp leasant symptoms including headache, irritability,
inability to think or concentrate, blurred vision, profound fatigue, aches, etc. Most of these symptoms come from low blood s ugar,
but combined with the toxins being released from fat and combined with goi ng through multiple addictive withdrawals, the
discomforts are more than most people are willing to tolerate. Fasting on juice is much more realistic for cases like this. I t is little
wonder that when a hygienist suggests a fast to improve health, this typ e of case asserts positively that fasting is quite impossible,
they have tried it, it is absolutely terrible and know that they can’t do it.
    This rejection is partly due to a cultural expectation (one reinforced by western medicine) that all unpleasan t symptoms should
be avoided or suppressed. To voluntarily experience unpleasant sensations such as those mentioned above is more than the
ordinary timid person will subject themselves to, even in order to regain health. They will allow surgery, drugs with  violent and
dangerous side effects, painful and invasive testing procedures and radiation –all unpleasant and sometimes extremely
uncomfortable. These therapies are accepted because someone else with authority is doing it to them. And, they have been told  that
it they don"t submit they will not ever feel better and probably will die in the near future. Also people think that they hav e no
alternative, that the expert in front of them knows what is best, so they feel relieved to have been relieved of the resp onsibility for
their own condition and its treatment.

Preventative Fasting
    During the years it takes for a body to degenerate enough to prompt a fast, the body has been storing up large quantities of
unprocessed toxins in the cells, tissues, fat depos its, and organs. The body in its wisdom will always choose to temporarily deposit
overwhelming amounts of toxins somewhere harmless rather than permit the blood supply to become polluted or to use secondary
elimination routes. A body will use times when th e liver is less burdened to eliminate these stored toxic debris. The hygienists"
paradigm asserts that the manifestation of symptoms or illness are all by themselves, absolute, unassailable proof that furth er
storage of toxic wastes in the cells, tissues, fat deposits, and organs is not possible and that an effort toward elimination is
absolutely necessary. Thus the first time a person fasts a great quantity of toxins will normally be released. Being the resi dent of a
body when this is happening can be quit e uncomfortable. For this reason alone, preventative fasting is a very wise idea.
    Before the body becomes critically ill, clean up your reserve fuel supply (fat deposits) by burning off some accumulated fat that
is rich in toxic deposits and then repl ace it with clean, non -toxic fat that you will make while eating sensibly. If you had but fasted
prophylactically as a preventative or health -creating measure before you became seriously ill, the initial detoxification of your
body could have been accompli shed far more comfortably, while you were healthy, while your vital force was high and while your
body otherwise more able to deal with detoxification.
    Each time you fast, even if it is only one day, you allow your body to go through a partial detox, and each time it becomes easier
and more comfortable than the last time. The body learns how to fast. Each time you fast it, your body slips into a cleansing  mode
more quickly, and each time you fast you lighten the load of stored toxins. Perhaps you have already eliminated the caffeine your
body had stored, which frequently causes severe headaches on withdrawal, not to mention fatigue. It certainly helps to have t his
behind you before you go on to the elimination of other irritating substances. Many people  have gone through alcohol or tobacco
withdrawal, and understand that it is very unpleasant, and also that it must be done in the pursuit of health. Why not withdr aw from
the rest of the irritating and debilitating substances we take into our system on an ongoing basis, and why not grit your way
through the eliminative process, withdraw, from food addictions such as sugar or salt, and from foods that you may be allergi c to
like wheat, dairy products or eggs.
    It is very wise to invest in your own insuran ce plan by systematically detoxifying while you are still healthy. Plan it into your
life, when it is convenient, such as once a week on Sunday, or even once a month on a quiet day. Take a few days of vacation,  go
to a warm, beautiful place and devote part  or all of it to cleansing. Treat yourself by taking an annual trip to Hawaii, fasting at a
hotel on the beach –do whatever it takes to motivate yourself. And consider this: vacations are enormously cheaper when you stay
out of restaurants.
    If you have accustomed your body to 24 hour fasts, then you can work on 48 hour fasts, and over time work up to 72 hour fasts,
all on a continuum. You may find it becoming increasingly comfortable, perhaps even pleasant, something you look forward to.
Fasting a relatively detoxified body feels good, and people eventually really get into the clean, light, clear headed, perhap s
spiritually aware state that goes along with it.
    By contrast, fasting when you are sick is much more difficult because your vitality or vital force is very low, you already have
no energy, and probably have unpleasant symptoms that must be dealt with at the same time. There may be the added stress of
being forced into a cleanse because you are too nauseous to eat. Most people l et their health go until they are forced into dealing
with it; they are too busy living, so why bother.
    The truth is that our body does age, and over time becomes less able to deal with insults; the accumulated effect of insults and
aging eventually l eads most of us to some serious degenerative illness. Normally this begins happening around age 50 if not
sooner. Some of us that were gifted with good genes or what I call "a good start" may have reached the age of 60 or 75 or eve n 90
without serious illn ess, but those people are few and far between. Why not tip the scales in your favor by preventing or staving off
health problems with systematic detoxification at your own convenience.
    Climb into the drivers seat and start to take control and gain conf idence in your own ability to deal with your body, your own
health, and your own life. When it gets right down to the bottom line, there is really only one thing in the world that is re ally yours,
and that is your life. Take control and start managing it. The reward will be a more qualitative life.

Spleen, Pancreas and Lung Cancer Testimonial
Rachael S. ~ Norcross, GA
26-Year Victory Over Cancer of the Spleen, Pancreas and Left Lung.
Dr. Kelley spoke with Rachael in August 1998. For 26 years she has told everyone
she meets who has a health problem about the Kelley program. Rachael wants
everyone to know that it is because of Dr. Kelley that she has lived to love and enjoy
four grandchildren and has recently become great-grandma to twins. The following is
her story:
On September 28, 1971, I  was admitted to the hospital as an emergency case
suffering with acute severe abdominal pain. The next morning, I  was taken to the
operating room for an emergency exploratory with subsequent removal of an
abscessed right ovary and fallopian tube (my healthy appendix was also removed). I
was told I  had peritonitis. Several days later, after X-rays of the colon, I  was told I  had
165
Winning The Cancer War
three tumors in the hepatic flexure of the transverse colon. The doctor said he was
"pretty sure at least one was malignant" and I  must be scheduled for colon resection
in 30 days. I  asked him what could be done if further surgery proved inadequate. He
said they would give me cobalt.
On the way home and during the next few days, I  pondered my predicament. I  was
in emotional shock and I  was weak and sick in body. Mentally, I  reviewed my
symptoms over the past months. My health had deteriorated gradually. For at least a
year, I  had been unable to sleep on my left side and more recently I  was unable to
sleep on my back. I  felt a pressure-like discomfort in the left upper quadrant and
under the left rib cage. I  also experienced shortness of breath when in these positions.
I  had "night sweats," awakening frequently at 1:00 or 2:00 a.m. drenched in
perspiration. I  had a persistent backache and low energy level. In the previous six
months I  had lost 40 pounds. I  was 45 years of age and, as a registered nurse, I  had
nursed hundreds of cancer patients in various stages of the disease. I  recalled some
painful statistics. The survival rate for metastatic cancer was less than 1%.
Later, I  learned the primary tumor was in the spleen with involvement in the
pancreas and lower left lung as well as metastasis to the colon. I  had a difficult
decision to make. I  felt my body was too weak to withstand major surgery again in
four weeks and yet my surgeon had told me I  would be "very foolish" not to consent
to further surgery. In my helplessness I  claimed God's promises in James 1:5; "If any
of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God that giveth to all men liberally." As is often
the case, God had already begun to answer my prayer before I  asked. Six months
prior to my hospitalization, I  had read Dr. Kelley's book One Answer To Cancer and
was so impressed I  stated to a friend, "If I  ever have cancer, I  think this is the
treatment I  would follow." Little did I  realize that within six months, I  would be faced
with that decision. My ultimate decision was to go see Dr. Kelley with the thought
that I  would postpone the surgery until I  could get my body built up on a good
nutritional program.
I  went on Dr. Kelley's program in November of 1971. My malignancy index was
700. I  sent in a urine specimen to Dr. Contreras in Mexico. The test for malignancy
was positive. I  realized my weak body was fighting three major battles — recovering
from the trauma of surgery and peritonitis, cancer, and severe emotional stress. Every
three to five weeks, I  suffered a healing crisis usually lasting about five days. During
this time I  stopped taking my enzymes. My symptoms were an ache-all-over feeling,
nausea, abdominal pain, weakness and mental depression. I  used zone therapy, hot
salt baths and hot wet baths for pain control to avoid taking pill medication. My
family provided great assistance and moral support. Friends and neighbors often
brought fresh vegetables, fruits and nuts. Some even supplied fresh non-chlorinated
water. Many prayers were uttered on my behalf.
166
Winning The Cancer War
After three months, I  went back to Dr. Kelley. In spite of all the suffering since the
last visit, I  felt I  was making progress. The test confirmed that in fact I  had made
remarkable progress. I  decided not to have further surgery unless some emergency
situation arose such as symptoms of intestinal obstruction.
I  continued to improve. My healing crisis became further and further apart and less
severe. My checkup every three months with Dr. Kelley showed remarkable progress.
In September of 1972, my local physician checked my condition. My blood
chemistry was normal, colon X-rays were negative and physical examinations
revealed nothing abnormal.
Twenty-eight months later I  completed another series of tests; X-rays, Pap smear,
etc. All were completely negative. By this time my night sweats had disappeared and
I  could sleep comfortably in any position. I  had gained 20 pounds and my general
health and sense of well being was better than it had been in fifteen years.
I  am indebted to Dr. Kelley and his kind and wonderful staff and grateful to God
that an alternative has been provided for cancer patients who choose not to undergo
radiation, chemotherapy and surgery.
Dr. Kelley: "Rachael and her husband and I  have been friends for a long time. One
of the blessings that I've had over these years, along with some of the problems
inherent in helping to change the course of health care in our society, is the friends
and friendships that I  have been permitted to have. Rachel reminds all of those who
start on this program that they w ill have a lot of 'up' days and many, many 'down'
days. It is hard, and it's painful and it takes a lot of energy and faith to continue.
There is a lot of pain involved."
Pancreas and Liver Cancer Testimonials
W. D. K elley, D.D.S., W in fie ld, KS
42-Year (in 2004) Victory Over Pancreatic/Liver Cancer.
I  can truthfully say that I  have cured or healed myself of cancer (malignancy) and I
can cure myself again if it ever becomes necessary. Better still, I  have learned God's
Law of Health concerning malignancy (cancer) and I  w ill ever invoke this Law so that
I  am not likely to have the disease again.
In the old adage "Physician, heal thyself" two things stand out to me. One is, if a
physician can't heal himself, how can he heal others? The other involves the true
meaning of cure — cure for anything. It is so often said. "I went to Dr. Jones and he
cured me." Nothing could be further from the truth. No matter how many years a
doctor has gone to school, no matter how many college degrees he may have, a

Winning The Cancer War
doctor can cure only one person — HIMSELF. It is important that a person understand
that only he can cure himself of anything!
It is the individual and his body chemistry that cure him of disease. In doing this,
he must take note that he is physical, structural, mental, and spiritual, and that each
facet plays a part in his cure. His physician or clinician can only bring to his attention
some of the basic Laws of God concerning health. Unfortunately, many clinicians are
not sufficiently aware of these Laws, even though they are honest and sincere, and try
their hardest.
Although I  am a clinician, I  have no intention of treating anyone for cancer or any
other disease. I  am even more than a clinician — I  am a teacher. My purpose in
writing this book is therefore educational: I  hope it w ill instruct you in God's Laws of
natural good health — and particularly in those concerning malignancy (cancer) so
that you can have a body free of this dreaded affliction. I  call unto Yahweh — "I am


 We don’t have to agree.”
They let it go at that without any need to win an argument or per-
suade the opponent of the wrongness of his position. They are un-
afraid of giving a bad impression but they don’t strive to do so.
Their values are not local. They do not identify with the family,
neighborhood, community, city, state, or country. They see them-
selves as belonging to the human race, and an unemployed Austrian
is no better or worse than an unemployed Californian. They are not
patriotic to a special boundary; rather they see themselves as a part
of the whole of humanity. They take no glee in having more enemy
dead, since the enemy is as human as the ally. The lines drawn by
men to describe how one should be affiliated are not subscribed to.
They transcend traditional boundaries, which often causes others
to label them as rebels or even traitors.
They have no heroes or idols. They view all people as human, and
they place no one above themselves in importance. They do not de-
mand justice at every turn. When someone else has more privileges,
they see that as a benefit to that person, rather than as a reason for
being unhappy. When playing an opponent they want him to do
well, rather than wishing a poor performance in order to win by
default. They want to be victorious and effective on their own, rather
than gaining through the shortcomings of others. They do not insist
that everyone be equally endowed, but look inward for their happi-
ness. They are not critics, nor do they take pleasure in other people’s
misfortunes. They are too busy being, to notice what their neighbors
are doing.
Most significantly, these are individuals who love them-PORTRAIT OF A PERSON WHO HAS ELIMINATED ALLselves. They are motivated by a desire to grow, and they always
treat themselves well when given the option. They have no room
for self-pity, self-rejection, or self-hate. If you ask them, “Do you like
yourself?” you’ll get a resounding, “Of course I do!” They are rare
birds indeed. Each day is a delight. They have it together and they
live all of their present moments. They are not problem free, but free
from emotional immobility as a result of the problems. The measure
of their mental health is not in whether they slip but in what they
do when they slip. Do they lie there and whine about having fallen?
No, they get up, dust themselves off, and get on with the business
of living. People who are free from erroneous zones don’t chase after
happiness; they live and happiness is their payoff.
This quote from a Reader’s Digest  piece on happiness sums up the
approach to effective living that we’ve been talking about
Nothing on earth renders happiness less approachable than
trying to find it. Historian Will Durant described how he looked
for happiness in knowledge, and found only disillusionment.
He then sought happiness in travel and found weariness; in
wealth and found discord and worry. He looked for happiness
in his writing and was only fatigued. One day he saw a woman
waiting in a tiny car with a sleeping child in her arms. A man
descended from a train and came over and gently kissed the
woman and then the baby, very softly so as not to waken him.
The family drove off and left Durant with a stunning realization
of the real nature of happiness. He relaxed and discovered that
“every normal function of life holds some delight.”*
By using your own present moments for maximizing fulfillment,
you’ll be one of these people rather than an observer. It’s such a
delightful idea—freedom from erroneous zones. You can make that
choice right now—if you choose to!

 the urine to be diagnosed,
it should not be that from urinating during the time before four or five
in the morning; since urination at such a time is affected strongly by
the food taken the previous meal, it is not good for diagnosis.
One should use the urine that builds up in the hours around four or
five in the morning. If one does not urinate during the night, then do
not collect the first half of the urination when you rise;
use only the later half.
../ 2}. TlM£ FOR VRfNAl VSlS
There are three aspects of urinalysis:
color, vapor arising from the urine,
and the albumin which is a cloud like substance in the urine.
The time for such diagnosis is after dawn.
../ 3}.. TH£ V£SS£l
The vessel in which the urine is to be placed is most often a
white porcelain cup which is such that its color will not affect
the appearance of the color of the urine.
Otherwise, an aluminum pot can be used.
One should not use vessels that color the urine, such as clay,
copper, brass, or any other colored pot; they make the urine
appear to have another color, and it will be difficult to tell what
the natural color of the urine is.
A white cup is best and not one with a pattern in it.
If it is impossible to get one of these three appropriate types,
one can line another type with a piece of white paper.
../ 4}.. COlORATlO}I CHANG£5
With respect to variations in the urine, the fourth topic, the text
speaks first of the digestive process. In the stomach, food is
differentiated or separated into a nutritious or more subtle part
and a less nutritious or unrefined part. The refined or better
part goes into the blood. The more wasteful product goes into
the intestines. In the intestines it is divided in two, that is, into
solid and liquid parts. The liquid portion of this waste goes
from the intestines to the urinary bladder.
59 With regard to the separation in the stomach, the finer or more
nutritious part goes to the liver. Within this, there is another
separation between the more nutritious and the less, with the
more nutritious part becoming blood and the less nutritious
going to the gall bladder. In the gall bladder there is further
separation, the finer substance becoming lymph.
The more wasteful part become albumin, the cloud-like
substance which appears in the urine; the albumin goes
together with the urine and accumulates in the urinary bladder.
It is because of this separation in the process of digestion that
food which has been ingested affects or transforms the color
of the urine.
The albumin, or cloud-like substance, basically appears in
urine due to blood and bile problems. Therefore, the condition
of the body in terms of heat and cold is indicated in the urine.
Just as in the market place when a merchant has something
illegal to sell and does not actually reveal it, holding it under a
garment, describe it and from that you can tell what he has
hidden, so from the urine it is possible to tell the types of
disorder or lack thereof in a person's body.
v' ;}.. TH£ VRTN£ OF H£Al THY PERSONS
If one looks at the urine of a healthy person, one finds that its
color is more or less the bright, cheerful yellow of the butter
on top of the milk from a "dri", the female counterpart of the
yak [yak only being males]. The odor is like that of the cream
that rises to the surface of milk. The vapor is neither terribly
strong or weak, neither big or small, and the duration of the
vapor-before the urine gets cooler and vapor stops-is neither
terribly long or short. The bubbles or froth are nothing
spectacular- neither terribly long or short, big or small, rather
moderate froth on top of the urine.
The albumin, for a healthy person, is simply mixed up together
with the urine, pervading it. Also, for a healthy person there is
not much chyle {the oily substance normally rising to the
surface of the urine}; just a little bit comes to the surface.
As the vapor gradually vanishes, one finds that a little darker
color converges toward the center of the cup of urine, just as
breath on a mirror gradually converges in the center and
disappears. After the urine has cooled off, its color is light,
clear, and yellowish; it is transparent.

Concerning the urine of persons with disorders,
there are two aspects to the discussion:
general and specific diseased urine.
7}. DlAGNOSlNG VRlN£
There are three times for diagnosing the urine:
when it is hot, then when it is lukewarm,
and finally when it is completely cooled off.
There are three times for diagnosing the urine:
when it is hot, then when it is lukewarm, and finally when it is
completely cooled off.
There are nine types of diagnosis that are broken down into
three groups relative to the three times. First, when the urine is
hot, one checks the color, the vapor, the odor, and the type of
bubbles or froth. When it is lukewarm, one checks the cloud
like albumin and the oily chyle that rises to the top.
When the urine is cooled off completely, one checks the time
of the variation of the color, then how it changes, and finally
postponed analysis. When patients are not able to come
themselves, their urine is sent, in Tibet by yak,
in India by other means. It is rather old by the time it arrives,
and so the doctor checks anything, but with a different type of
diagnosis, because the urine the older.
This is called "postponed analysis".
We return to the first of the nine, the color,
which is investigated when the urine is still quite hot.
The urine of a person with a wind ailment ailment is like water
from a mountain spring, light blue in color and transparent.
A bile disorder will manifest in the urine as a more yellow,
perhaps even an orangish, color. If the urine is very pale, or
whitish, this indicates a phlegm disorder.
Question: Is there a difference between the blueness of the
urine or wind disorder and the paleness of a phlegm disorder?
Answer: The urine of a person with a phlegm disorder is a bit
milky as if someone took milk and dropped it into the urine;
you cannot see through it. For the wind disorder it is very
clear, like mountain spring water.
61 If the urine is red, it indicates a blood disorder.
If the urine is rust color, this indicates a lymph disorder.
If the urine is brownish, it indicates a complex disorder of all
three humors- wind, bile and phlegm.
If the color is a mixture of red and yellow, it is a disorder of
blood and bile. If it is a mixture of white and yellow, this
indicates a disorder of both phlegm and bile.
If the urine is yellow, like mustard oil, and oily, it indicates
both a bile disorder and contagious disease.
If it is orange, thick, and has a foul color,
this indicates a type of disorder that spreads from organ to organ or
a general disturbance of the body, such as with a heat ailment.
If the color of the urine is generally dark but has a spectrum of color,
like a rainbow, this indicates poisoning; it could be of any variety of
poisoning- mineral, meat, and so on.
. The second of the nine types of diagnosis is vapor,
which is investigated while the urine is very hot. If the urine
has a large vapor, this indicates a developed heat ailment.
If there is little vapor but it lasts a long time, this indicates
either a hidden heat ailment or an old, chronic heat ailment.
If there is little vapor that lasts a short time, it is a cold ailment,
involving phlegm and wind-an excess of cold in the body.
If there is an alternation in the amount of vapor, then in that
case there exists a combination of heat and cold disorders in
the body. The vapor is seen just as, for example,
you see steam rise from a cup of hot tea.
Bubbles, color, and vapor are visual.
The odor of the urine is, of course, to be smelled.
If the urine has a foul odor and there is albumin in the urine,
this indicates a strong heat disorder. If there is either no odor
or a very slight odor, this indicates a cold disorder.
If the urine smells of different foods such as cabbage, meat,
and so forth, this indicates that the digestion is not working
properly; the digestive heat is not up to par.
62 If the froth or bubbles on the urine have a bluish tint and are large,
this indicates a wind disorder. If the bubbles are small and many

This life  is a dr eam. The whole world is nothing but a
dr eam-illusion.
In yo ur night dr eams your mind cr eates an entir e world and
makes everything so r eal that you don’ t question it—until
you wake up.
The waking state is also only an extr emely convincing play
that consciousness is pr oducing.
Because the mind is mechanica l, if we live fr om our mind,
our life is mechanical.
When our mind is running our  life, we’r e pr evented fr om
seeing the world as it r eally is.
When you wake up, you will be  in the world but not  of the
world.
The Mo untain of Consciousness is a metaphor for
consciousness: Y our perspective of life expands as you get
higher. At the to p of the mount ain, you can see the beauty
and perfection of absolutely everything.
Y our mi nd is made up of thoughts, and the thoughts it
pr oduces ar e coming fr om pr ograms formed by your beliefs
and held in your subconscious mind.
The subconscious mind stor es our beliefs, memory,
personality traits, automatic pr ocesses, and habits; its
operation is no differ ent fr om that of a computer.
The firs t step to fr eedom is when we understand that our
thoughts cr eate our life. What you think is what manifests.C h a p t e r  5
Fr eedom fr om the Mind
“It is n’ t necessary for the mind to be quiet. All that matters is tha t you not listen to what
it’ s saying, as if it were true.”
Jan Frazier, fr om  The Great Sweetening: Life After Thought
Y our mind is an amazing tool to create your life exactly as you want it to be. It is not
your psychoanal yst or your ther apist, yet we give it that kind of authority over us when
we listen  to it a nd believe all it s thoughts as though they were true. This one habit of
believing our own thoughts robs us of being able to live in the magnificence and glory
of our true nature, A wareness. W e are prevented from having a life of constant
happiness, and a life where everything we need falls into our hands at the perfect time.
Humanity has suf fered too mu ch for too long, because of our minds. It’ s time to
delegate our mind to its rightfu l place so that it is no longer the dictator of our life.
When w e no longer live from an d through the mind, we will begin to live from our true
self, A w areness, and our life will truly become heaven on earth, free of suf fering and
negativity.
“Every p roblem perceived to be ‘out there’ is really nothing more than a misperception
within your own thinking.”
Byr on Katie, fr om  Loving What Is
“The most powerful way to remove negativity is to recognize that you are not the mind.
Once realized, negativity has nothing to hook to, and it dissolves by itself.”
Hale Dwoskin
Most people believe that negative situations come from outside of them; they believe
that it’ s  either people, circums tances, or events in the world that have caused the
negative situatio ns in their life. But nothing is inherently good or bad, as Shakespeare
told us: “There is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so.”
It’ s your thoughts about a perso n, circumstance, or event that’ s the source of negative
situations in your life, not the actual person, circumstance, or event. And so
understanding a little of how the mechanics of your mind work will help free you from
its erroneous negative judgments, and then you can use it for what it’ s intended for—to
create the life you want.
“Thinking was made to order what you want, not to indulge in it. The mind is there to
receive the order and make it a ppear to you. Thinking isn’ t ne eded for anything else
because everything else is taken care of by A wareness.”
My teacher“If you would only from this moment on see what you want, that is all that you would
get. But you hold in mind the things you do not want. Y ou struggle to eliminate the
things you don’ t want, thereby  sustaining them. So, it is necessary to let go of the
negative and put in the positive if you want a positive, happy life.”
Lester Levenson, fr om  Happiness Is Free, volumes 1–5
What ex actly is  your mind? First, it’ s important to understand  that your mind is not
your bra in. Y our brain doesn’ t t hink. Scientists have not been able to find a thought in
the brain; they c an only see the electrical activity caused by thoughts. Thinking comes
from the  mind. Y our mind is ma de up entirely of thought. If there’ s no current thought,
there’ s no mind. It’ s as simple as that. Y our mind can’ t even hold two thoughts at one
time. Y o u know that it’ s impossi ble to truly listen to a conversation and read something
on your  phone at the same tim e. Y our mind can’ t multitask, as much as you might
believe it can.
However, a single thought, whe ther positive or negative, becomes a powerhouse when
you believe it.
“If you prefer to suf fer, go on b elieving your stressful thoughts. But if you’d rather be
happy, question them.”
Byr on Katie, fr om  A Mind at Home with Itself
Most people believe their own t houghts as though they were facts, which explains why
life is stressful and challenging for so many. No one pointed out to us that our thoughts
are j ust mental noise, and they are not  reality. However, if we choose to believe our
thoughts, they will  become our reality!
Mind is the gre at manifester of our physical life, and it wil l manifest any and all
thoughts we believe, whether th ey’re positive or negative, whether they’re thoughts of
what we want o r what we don’ t want. Positive thoughts are not harmful to your life
because they are close to your true nature; it’ s negative thoughts that are the cause of
our stres s and suf fering. And s o, we need to become particularly aware of negative
thoughts.
Because our mind is mechanical, negative thinking can easily be come a fixed pattern. If
you then listen to and identify with the negative thoughts, yo u will be drawn in and
become lost in your thoughts as though in a hypnotic tran ce. Y our thoughts will
constantly take you into your head and away from what is actually happening in the
world.
“Y ou believe that you are your mind. This is the delusion. The in strument has taken you
over.”
Eckhart T olle, fr om  The Power of Now
It’ s as though we’re playing a  virtual reality game and we’v e for gotten we have a
headset on. Because of the challenging circumstances in the virt ual reality world, we’re
stressed and suf fering, but if we  would just take the headset of f, we would realize that
the virtual reality world is not real. So it is with our thoughts. When we believe our
thoughts, we’re immediately ca ught in an imaginary mind-made movie that’ s playing
inside our head, and we’re no longer experiencing the world as it really is.
“All thoughts are lies. The only truth is what is aware of them.”
My teacher
“A wareness does the observing; thought does the judging.”
Rupert Spira, fr om  The Ashes of Love
Thoughts are also responsible f or causing our feelings, and then in turn those feelings
will cause more thoughts. When we have a sad thought, it causes a sad feeling, and thesad feeling causes more sad th oughts. W e end up looking at  life through a veil of
sadness, where everything appears sad to us and we canno t see what is actually
happening in the world.
“Mind is consciousness that has put on limitations. Y ou are originally unlimited and
perfect. Later you take on limitations and become the mind.”
Ramana Maharshi
If yo u h aven’ t d eliberately prog rammed your mind to think po sitively, your mind will
constantly throw  up negative t houghts that belittle and limit you. “I shouldn’ t have
done that.” “What was I thinking?” “That was really dumb.” “I’m running out of time.”
“I can’ t do that.”
“The mi nd is all, ‘No!’ ‘T oo late!’ ‘T oo early!’ ‘T oo fast!’ ‘T oo  slow!’ The mind never
stops.”
My teacher
“It’ s not that the mind is bad. The problem is that it tends to run on automatic, a
machine we can’ t figure out how to turn of f. Most of the time, w e don’ t even realize it’ s
running. Its ever -looping conten t is like elevator music, hardly noticed, like background
static that’ s tuned out. Because the mind goes everywhere we go, the temptation to use

Endometriosis is one of the main causes of in-
fertility. Nowadays, obstetricians and gynecol-
ogists attach great importance to it. Every third
woman suffers from endometriosis, which can
be the cause of a condition as terrible as infertil-
ity. Endometriosis is one of the most common
diseas es, which entails the cells from the inner
(mucous) layer of the uterus appearing in uter-
ine walls and the other internal organs. Endome-
triosis occurs increasingly more frequently every
year. Besides, today the condition affects young
women. In the past, endometriosis mainly af-
fected women after 35 years of age. Now, it’s in-
creasingly common in young 20 -year-old
women.

menstrual blood are eliminated from the uterus
every month. Sometimes during menstruation, a
detach ed part of the endometrium moves in the
wrong direction, which is different from a regu-
lar one. It moves towards fallopian tubes, ova-
ries, and even other distant organs, such as lungs
and perirectal or pericystic space, not into the
vagina and then out of the body. The symptoms
of this condition begin 2 -3 days before menstru-
ation, and they include spasms, pain radiating to
the perineum or the rectum, and excessive
bleeding. In many cases, endometriosis can go
unnoticed for a long time. A woman may learn
that she has this condition only during a visit to
her gynecologist. The long -term inability to con-

What causes endometriosis? There are more
than 40 hypoth eses of its origin, but none of
them are 100% supported by scientists and doc-
tors. All that’s known definitively is that women
who use intrauterine contraceptives (such as spi-
rals), underwent any gynecological surgery
(such as abortions, diagnostic curettage of the
uterine cavity, cervical erosion coagulation, etc.)
are more prone to endometriosis. Moreover, any
abdominal surgery (such as appendectomy) or
pelvic surgery (such as bladder stone removal)
can result in endometriosis. Of course, neuro-
hormonal disorders (pituitary gland disorders
and conditions that affect other hormone -pro-
ducing organs), weak immune system (resulting

microwave fields, and others) can result in endo-
metriosis. Some scientists believe in  a genetic
predisposition.
Obviously, if there are many theories, the real
cause of endometriosis is still unknown. There-
fore, I think it’s best to depend on your healing
powers and the wisdom or the body, your inner
doctor who knows how to cure you better  than
professors and scientist.

19.2.8. Dry Fasting for Benign Tumors
The main therapeutic factor in treating benign
tumors with dry fasting involves three mecha-
nisms.
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.fr1. Only the healthiest and strongest cells and
tissues with a perfect adaptation mechanism sur-
vive in extreme and harsh conditions with no
water and food. It’s obvious that adaptation
mechanisms to severe conditions are much
weaker and flawed in any pathological for-
mation.
2. The destruction of pathological cells (and
not the healthy ones) during therapeutic dry
fasting is also associated with the release of lym-
phoepithelial cells from the entire digestive tract.
Refraining from food and water intake for many
days creates conditions for the advancement of
very powerful B -lymphocytes from thei r gastro-
intestinal position. They’re gathered from all
lymphatic basins and nodes of the extensive di-
gestive tract. Most of them come from the small

used for their intended purpose. They destroy
and suppress a ll pathological tissues and cells.
The immune system becomes several times
stronger.
3. Autolysis (self -digestion) is one of the main
mechanisms that can disband benign tumors.
I’ve already described this remarkable process in
the chapter 8 ( What mechanis ms does a dry fast
trigger within the body? ). I’ll try to explain it
again in a shorter and simpler manner. When I
describe this mechanism to my patients, I pro-
vide the simplest and most vivid example from
nature, which is the common onion. It contains
a new plant inside it surrounded by the nutrient s
sufficient to survive the rest period, during
which it doesn’t receive any nutrients from the

bag where it’s stored. It pushes out new shoots,
and almost the entire bulb turns into green off -
shoots very so on. The bulb gradually softens. Fi-
nally, only its cover remains as the growing plant
digests the shoots and uses the bulb content.
This means that the old is used to grow the new.
Let’s take a look at a simple furuncle, which
most of us have probably enco untered. At first,
we experience swelling and redness, but then a
furuncle disappears with the help of enzymes
and immune cells.
The same thing happens with benign tumors
during dry fasting and the second acidotic crisis.
This is when autolysis functions as a natural sur-
geon. No surgery eliminates the causes of the
disease, while fasting eliminates both its cause

from the uterine muscular layer. It affects
women over 30. There’s evidence of an increase
in the  number of patients. The latest data prove
that uterine fibroids affect younger patient
groups. The main causes of uterine fibroids in-
clude hormonal imbalances, abortions, heredity,
poor ecology, and adenomyosis. In addition, in-
flammatory gynecological diseases of different
origins, IUDs, and difficulties in labor are other
major causes of this disease. Uterine fibroids are
a benign tumor that usually grows in the uterine
muscular layer. According to statistics, more
than 28% of women are affected by this d isease.
I also had many cases when lipomas remained
during fasting, but they dissolved two or three

ommendations.

19.2.9. Mastopathy
This condition is characterized by non -cancer-
ous changes in breast tissues in women. Mas-
topathy affects women of all ages. Women be-
tween the ages of 25 and 45 are particularly
prone to it. According to statistics, this patient
group is 60-80%.

Causes of mastopathy.  Hormonal imbalance
is the main cause of mastopathy. When the fe-
male body functions normally, monthly hormo-
nal changes cause cyclical changes in breasts.
Hormonal imbalance can cause mastopathy.
