We must cleanse “The Body Temple ” and “The Body Terrain” if we are to expect to enjoy good health and well-being. The cleanliness of the digestive tract (colon), or the lack thereof, contributes to overall health. It is now an accepted fact that the road to good health really does begin with intestinal cleansing and detoxification, no matter what the disease or health problems may be. Each of the approximately 100 trillion cells in the body burns fuel and creates waste products – the bulk of which must be eliminated by the colon that is located in the last five feet of the intestines. An unclean, weak, and poorly functioning colon is a breeding ground for diseases, sickness, and death.

In 1985, between 60 and 70 million Americans were affected by digestive disorders. Today, it is closes to 100 million; in fact, digestive disorders are responsible for over 50 million physician visits and more hospitalizations than any other category of medical problems in the United States . Furthermore, colon cancer is the second leading cancer killer in the U.S. , second only to lung cancer in men, and breast cancer in women. In addition, at least two million Americans suffer colon-related diseases, including colitis, ileitis, and diverticulitis, with approximately 100,000 colostomy surgeries being performed each year.

Good health is as much a function of the quality of food we eat as it is our elimination status. The typical American diet is comprised of refined, processed foods, which are high in saturated fats, sugar, flour, preservatives, and low in fiber and nutrients that help us digest or move food through the body in a timely and efficient manner. And, the modern, hectic lifestyle; poor eating habits; depleted, overly-refined foods; lack of exercise; pollution, etc., all place severe stress on the human body and contribute to the growing rates of cancer, diabetes, arthritis, and immune-related disease. Nearly every American will be afflicted by a chronic, degenerative, debilitating, often life-threatening, disease.

The simple truth is this: We really do not need an entire course in physiology and biology to know how to care for ourselves properly. Common sense and basic principles underly good health and right living. We need fresh air, pure water, invigorating exercise and nourishing food. There is a great deal of truth to the old adage, “You are what you eat.” However, it is more accurate to state, “You are what your body makes out of what you eat, or more precisely, you are what you ABSORB!!!” A healthy body MUST properly digest, assimilate, process and deliver nutrients to every cell. It must also eliminate cellular waste and defend against external pathogens (disease-causing agents).

Research in the field of Mind-Body Medicine leaves little doubt that attitude affects health. Folk wisdom has long held that optimism leads to good health, and modern medicine is beginning to pick up on this. “It is part of the cure to wish to be cured,” said the noble Roman Philosopher, Seneca, who was a contemporary of Christ. Half the battle of restoring good health and getting well is in the realization that you have recuperative powers within yourself. “It is not penicillin, not insulin, and it is not bypass surgery . . . it is the awesome power within the human body to heal and rejuvenate itself”, says Dr. Julian Whitaker, MD. Your body would much rather live than die. With a little daily cooperation from you, the ultimate is achievable.

“Change of diet will not help a man who will not change his thoughts. When a man makes his thoughts pure, he no longer desires impure food,” wrote James Allen, whose inspirational classis “As A Man Thinketh”, has influenced millions for good. The BODY is the servant of the MIND – a long, healthy and happy life is rooted in faith and obedience to the Laws of Nature.

Ideal health, therefore, is based on the foundation and the connection of Body, Mind, and Spirit.

Compare the human body to an automobile engine. A new car comes with fresh, clean oil and a new, clean filter. But as time goes by and the car is driven for several thousand miles, the oil becomes dirty in its job of lubricating the engine. The oil itself is cleaned as it passes through the oil filter, and after a time the unclean oil and the clogged filter must be replaced. If not, the engine will eventually cease to function properly and it will be ruined. The same is true for the human body; it is a living system, and is constantly filtering and cleaning itself. If you overload the system with impurities, eventually it cannot handle them anymore and will become overloaded; then breakdown occurs.

Imagine this: A small percentage of every greasy cheeseburger you ever ate is still inside your body, impacted along the lining of your colon. That picture is pretty much a reality for most Americans. Most individuals on a typical Western diet hold eight meals of undigested food and waste material in their colon! Over time, the colon will lose the ability to process vital nutrients, absorb water and to eliminate fecal matter from the body – a condition commonly known as “constipation” – which is identified as a condition where the fecal matter is so tightly impacted together, and bowel movements are infrequent with much difficulty and straining. Many people can be constipated without actually recognizing the condition as such. Old, hardened feces stick to the walls of he colon. Many experts believe that the average person has 7 to 25 pounds of accumulated waste matter in their colon. While it is not a weight loss procedure, it is interesting that many people who complete a colon cleansing regimen report significant weight losses.

This is not a good thing – during periods of constipation, it is more likely that toxic wastes will be absorbed through the bowel wall and into the bloodstream, where they may be deposited anywhere throughout the body. This promotes cell alterations and mutations associated with some of the deadliest degenerative conditions. Medical studies and hundreds of researchers have demonstrated that colon toxicity can be the underlying cause of many health problems. An unhealthy colon can adversely affect a person’s total health, and even lead to the following conditions:

• Bowel Toxemia: A problem caused by years of the buildup of waste material, impacted feces, bacteria, fungi, viruses, dead cellular tissue, accumulated mucous, parasites, worms, etc., on the colon walls. The accumulated buildup over the years inhibits muscular action causing sluggish bowel movements, constipation, inflammation and numerous serious diseases.
• Leaky Gut Syndrome: A problem where toxins from the colon may be absorbed and circulate into the bloodstream.. These poisons can impair normal liver, lung, and kidney function. Individuals with this condition will feel tired, ill, and weak, almost constantly.
• Other Diseases: Many other diseases, that at first glance appear to have no connection with the digestive tract, have been related to the bowel. These include: Diabetes, gall stones, kidney stones, gout, hypertension, varicose veins, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, and obesity.

Colon-related health problems may be reduced or eliminated entirely by maintaining a high-fiber diet, supplementing with Enzymes, Probiotics, Essential Fatty Acids, and a daily, balanced nutritional regimen – complemented by the consumption of lots of purified water every day. Then, do a thorough colon cleanse at least once or twice per year.

• Enzymes aid in the digestion and breakdown of foods so that the nutrients can be utilized at the cellular level, and the remaining waste material flushed out through the intestines and colon.
• Probiotics are organisms (preferably Soil-Based Organisms – SBO) that beneficially affect the balance of the intestinal bacteria. Their production of organic acids inhibit the growth of undesirable bacteria, promote normal gastrointestinal function, and provide for a healthier intestinal wall.
• Essential Fatty Acids perform key functions in the body’s cells and tissues that the body cannot live without. We must have them to live and be healthy, but our bodies cannot produce them from other substances; therefore, we must obtain them from other sources, such as plants. Essential Fatty Acids (EFA) assist in the function of the digestive, cardiovascular, immune and glandular system; working at every aspect of the cellular level, and carry oxygen to all the cells so food can be burned as energy. EFA’s help the body absorb sunlight, which gives us Vitamin D to build strong bones. Our bodies need to have a proper balance of EFA’s – Omega 3 (Alpha-Linolenic Acid; Omega 6 (Gamma Linolenic Acid; and Omega 9 (Oleic Acid) – derived from plant-based sources.
• Nutritional Regimen – balances the body chemistry; cleanses the vital organs; purifies the blood and lymph system; nourishes the body at the cellular level; oxygenates the body’ cells; protects the tissues and cells against toxins; strengthens the immune system.
• Pure Water is imperative for the proper hydration of the body’s internal terrain. The body is like a fish tank; think of the importance of maintaining the integrity of the intestinal fluids of the body that our cells “swim” in daily. Most people are polluting our internal “fish tank” with junk foods, smoking, over consumption of acid-forming foods, and any number of transgressions , which compromise the delicate balance of our internal alkaline fluids. A chronically over-acidic pH corrodes the body tissues, slowly eating into the miles and miles of veins and arteries. In fact, the over-acidification of the body is the single underlying cause of all disease. When the body is in a healthy alkaline balance, germs and disease are unable to get a foothold in the body.
  Water is a solvent; it flushes impurities from the body through perspiration and urine.
  Water is a lubricant in our digestive tract (saliva and mucus) and in our joints (synovial fluid).
  Water regulates the body temperature; by evaporating sweat on the skin surface to alleviate excess body heat, instead of overheating the body’s cells.
  Water is essential. Through he process of electrical exchange on the level of neurotransmitters in the brain and conductivity throughout the entire body.

Most Americans today are poisoning their bodies with an unhealthy diet of de-mineralized, de-vitalized, de-energized, and dead, processed foods, which are basically void of essential nutrients; therefore, turning their colons and intestines into a toxic waste dump. When the colon becomes impacted with excess wastes and cannot do its job properly, carcinogens and free radicals begin to seep into the bloodstream. This can lead to DNA damage and disrupt cellular health by hindering and/or destroying oxygen absorption.

The first signs of poor colon health are lack of energy, general fatigue, allergies, sinus problems, recurrent headaches, and a weakened immune system. As time goes on, an impacted colon, coupled with low cellular oxygen, sets up a breeding ground for harmful anaerobic pathogens that will wreak havoc on your health. Some of these symptoms will manifest in the form of: skin rashes and eruptions, bad gas, stomach bloating, foul breath, body odor, acidic pH, acid reflux, heart burn, irregular bowel movements, irritable bowel syndrome, liver and kidney troubles, leaky gut, and significant weight gain. Eventually it can lead to a complete metabolic breakdown, allowing degenerative disease to set in.

According to two-time Nobel Prize Winner, Otto Warburg, there is one correlating factor to all disease: Oxygen deprivation at the cellular level, due to a buildup of toxins in and around the cells which causes them to ferment (rot). In light of Warburg’s discoveries, one cannot overlook the importance of a healthy colon plays in proper oxygenation of the whole body. The bottom line is this: When the colon is clogged and unable to remove excess toxins and wastes, your overall health will suffer severely!

If you have toxic residues accumulating in the intestines, liver, blood, tissue, and cells and nutritional building elements are not able to penetrate the cell membrane to regenerate the cells and remove metabolic waste, then metabolic efficiency, energy and hormone/neurotransmitter synthesis is greatly reduces, which will manifest symptoms of extreme lethargy, muscle weakness, gastric distention, aches and pains, depression, and memory and concentration problems. These symptoms are warning us of a deeper cellular malfunction. Remember – only after a massive number of cells have malfunctioned or die does a person begin to notice symptoms of disease. In other words, you are already sick before you know you are sick.

At birth, your intestinal tract was void of any bacteria. Breast-feeding during the first few weeks was how you established a base of friendly bacteria that coast the entire tract. This “good bacteria” acts as a defense system against harmful pathogens that invade the body. Studies have revealed that the mortality rates of infants that do not breast feed are significantly higher. By the time you reach adulthood, you should have approximately 3-5 pounds of bacteria (this includes both the good and the bad) in your intestine.

What most doctors do not tell you is that if you poison your body with pharmaceutical drugs, along with the toxic sewage of the Standard American Diet (SAD), the intestinal system will eventually become poisoned and shut down. If unwanted intestinal wastes are not properly excreted and eliminated from the body, over time they can toxify your system by putrefying, fermenting, and sticking to your colon wall like plaster of Paris. This abuse to the body can negatively impact intestinal flora by causing it to literally suffocate from the overload. If the body’s good aerobic bacteria start dying off, your health can begin to deteriorate rapidly. Any health program that doesn’t incorporate a good probiotic supplement will most likely end in a dismal failure.

A healthy gastrointestinal/digestive system is absolutely critical for good health. The fact is, without a healthy functioning digestive system, it is only a matter of time before you go back to the dust of the earth, just as the scriptures proclaim. Proper digestion is vital in order to release the nutrients contained within our foods so they can be absorbed into the bloodstream and nourish the body’s cells with life. Proper elimination of metabolic wastes is also important in order to keep the system clean and free of morbid wastes. Any malfunction in the digestive process can ultimately lead to a cellular malfunction, which given enough time, can lead to a complete system malfunction.

When our Herbal Cleansing Program is used accordingly, and in conjunction with a healthy, non-toxic, non-clogging diet, it will effectively eliminate excess wastes, restore regularity to the bowels, and create an inhospitable environment for anaerobic bacteria. Once years of impacted wastes are safely removed and the colon in functioning properly again, the intestinal system has the tools to run on all cylinders and play a pivotal role in your body’s overall health.

The purpose of this complete cleansing program is to purify the human body for healing. If you are overweight, this procedure will take you down to your normal body weight, and if you are under weight, it will bring you up to normal. The purpose of the entire program is to eliminate mucus from the body, and with the mucus out of the body, a natural healing is obtained in a more simplified way, with the least inconvenience to the person. Remember this: There are no incurable diseases – only people who think they are incurable. The cleansing program will:

• Clean the mucus out of the body, which is the problem source that develops tumors, cysts, etc., bringing about old age rapidly and prematurely.
• Give you foods that are of the highest vibratory quality – that are alive, nutritious, and healthful – which can rebuild the vital parts of the physical body so that they do not periodically break down without warning. Mucus is the cause of allergies, the cause of disease, of pain, and eventually the cause of death.
• Provide you with corrective aids to facilitate the healing and generation of the body system.
• Release static electricity from the body.
• Provide you with herbal formulas that may help you find better health and happiness.

To begin this cleansing program, the person is required to undergo three days of detoxification (body purification), then proceed with the Mucousless Diet as listed below. The mucus and catarrh elimination and detoxification procedure that we recommend is taken in part from Dr. N.W. Walker’s book, “Fresh Vegetable and Fruit Juices.” As a purification/detoxification procedure, the 3-Day Juice Cleanse prepares the body for Extended Herbal Cleansing and the Mucousless Diet, by removing toxins and replacing them with the nutrients from fresh juices.

Supreme cleanliness is the first step towards a healthy body. Any accumulation or retention of morbid matter or waste of any kind within us will retard our progress towards recovery. The natural eliminative channels are the lungs, the pores of the skin, the kidneys, and the bowels.

Perspiration is the action of the sweat glands in throwing off toxins, which would be injurious to us if retained in the body. The kidneys excrete the end products of food and body metabolism from the liver. The bowels eliminate not only the food waste, but also waste matter, known simply as body waste, in the form of used up cells and tissues. This is the result of our physical and mental activities, which if not eliminated cause protein putrefaction – resulting in toxemia or acidosis.

When we are dealing with long-standing health problems we cannot expect to totally cleanse or heal the body with one or so three-day cleansing routines. Therefore, to rid the body of chronic conditions, or to prevent their occurrences, a total herbal body cleanse is an excellent path to follow. This should be used in conjunction with the “Mucousless Diet” – see complete explanation below. We believe that maintaining a healthy body includes regular detoxification and body cleansing processes. The Total Body Cleanse system is designed to promote a balanced lifestyle – free of unnecessary toxins or poor/uncomfortable elimination. That is why HealthStyles4URx offers a unique line of organic, foundational health products to complement a comprehensive the Total Body Cleanse regimen.

The Total Body Cleanse system was developed using only the highest quality, organic herbal ingredients – all naturally derived and specifically formulated to achieve the most thorough and healthy total body cleanse. The herbs (no vitamins included) that make up our cleansing supplements are specific to the organs and functions they target. You can feel free to choose an organic herbal supplement that is designed only for cleansing the Liver or Bowels, for example. However, it is recommended to select the complete Total Body Cleanse, because it is formulated to cleanse all five eliminatory organs (Blood, Bowel, Liver, Lymph, Urinary Tract), as well as Parasites, for total body purification and healthy elimination. During the extended cleansing routine, we address the Upper and Lower Bowel, Colon, Blood, Liver, Gall Bladder, Kidneys, Lymph, and Parasites. The basic cleansing routine is followed for a period of 14-30 days – then, some of the steps can be extended, if necessary, for an additional period of time.

We believe that good health begins with healthy and proper elimination of waste matter, and this means normal bowel movements 2-3 times each day. In order to promote these functions, the Total Body Cleanse actively assists the body in elimination and tonifies the organs so they can function more effectively on their own. Most people have several pounds of old dried fecal matter that is impacted and stored in the colon, which is toxifying the system and keeping the food they consume from being assimilated. Because of this putrefied condition, most people engorge themselves with many times more food than the body actually requires. In the process they wear out their bodies in trying to get sufficient nutrition and are still always hungry. After the bowel is cleaned, the food is readily assimilated, and a person can sustain himself on about one-third the quantity of the current food consumption, and have four or five times more energy, vitality and zest. A clean body is able to normally assimilate the simple food values through the cell structures in the colon, instead of it being trapped in a maze of waste and inhibited by the hard fecal casing on the intestinal walls – that only causes the majority of the nutrition to be pushed on and eliminated without the body having a chance to utilize it. The proprietary, custom formulations in our Total Body Cleanse system promote better elimination of unwanted toxins, pathogens, parasites, detrimental fungi, or other contaminants that prevent you from being as healthy as you could be.

Once your body has been completely cleansed, these aids will not be necessary on a daily basis – and your food will be your medicine, and your medicine will be your food. However, the Bowel Intestinal Cleanser can be used daily to assist in healthy elimination – if that is your desire. After following this recommended program properly and the bowel is completely cleansed, the total herbal formula should only be used when needed

“Let your food be your medicine, and medicine will be your food” ~ Hippocrates

“Supreme cleanliness is the first step toward a healthy body.”

Digestive system and colon health have reached an all time low in the United States. Diseases of the digestive tract are on the rise; during the last decade, Colon and Rectal cancer was the #1 disease among men and women. The Merck Manual - the medical industry’s standard test for the diagnosis and treatment of disease tells us that colon degeneration is on the upswing. The incidence of diverticulosis has increased dramatically over the last 40 years. It further states that in 1950 only 10% of adults over the age of 45 had this disease; in 1955 15%; in 1972 it was up to 30%; and in 1993 al most ½ of American adults have herniation of the large intestine! Diverticula are secular herniations that protrude through the wall of the colon. These “bowel pockets” are almost always symptomatic, i.e., you cannot feel them, and they are caused by a sluggish, constipated bowel. These pockets fill with old fecal material, which can be reabsorbed back into the bloodstream, and it can infect the entire body, causing all types of toxic reactions.

A sluggish bowel can retain literally many pounds of old, toxic and poisonous fecal matter. Many times the real cause behind sickness and disease is the retention and re-absorption of this toxic waste. Any accumulation of waste within our body would retard our health and it would slow recovery time from ailments. It is impossible to discuss wholistic health without talking about internal cleansing.

Modern lifestyles have taken their toll on our digestive/elimination organs. Refined, processed, low-fiber foods, animal fats, too many diary products, lack of proper exercise and an ever increasing level of stress all contribute to our current gastro-intestinal health crisis. The frequency at which a normal, healthy person should experience bowel movements has been a great misconception among the public and most medical professionals. For years doctors have thought that anywhere between one bowel movement a day to two or three a week was sufficient. In the examination of primitive people it has been found that their bowel movements were much more frequent – 2 to 3 times each day on the average. This was due to the fact that these people ate much better than modern man, and they got more exercise and had very little stress in their lives. What we have learned is that it is normal and very healthy to have one bowel movement a day for each meal that is eaten (If you eat 3 meals a day, then you should have 3 bowel movements.)

The purpose of this cleansing program is to purify the human body for healing. The #1 mission is to eliminate mucous from the body, and with the mucous out of the body a natural healing is obtained in a more simplified way, with the least inconvenience to the individual. Remember: There are no incurable diseases – only people who think they are incurable.

The first step in anyone’s personal health regimen should be stimulating, cleansing and toning all the elimination organs, and the bowel is the best place to begin. HealthStyles4URx is proud to offer the most effective internal cleansing and detoxifying formulas on the market today. The cleansing program is designed to:

• Clean the mucous out of the body, which is the problem source that develops tumors, cysts, etc., and brings about old age more rapidly.
• Give you foods of the highest vibratory quality that are alive, nutritious and healthful, that can rebuild the vital parts of the physical body so that they do not periodically break down without warning. Mucous is the cause of allergies, disease, pain, and death.
• Provide you with corrective aids to facilitate the healing and generation of the body system.
• Release static electricity from the body.
• Provide you with herbal formulas (with complete descriptions) that may help you achieve a better state of health and well-being.

You should not be unduly alarmed if you should feel somewhat weak during, or after, this detoxification. Nature uses our energies for a housecleaning within us, and we soon regain greater energy and vitality as a result of a cleaner and healthier body. It is recommended to do the Three-Day Cleanse several times a year.

Fasting: After the first three days of the juice cleanse, if a person has the desire and ability to do so, it is always preferable to “fast” one to three days more – drinking only pure water for the first two days, followed by a day of juice – before returning to salads and other regular foods. Do not eat any heavy foods immediately after a cleansing period, or after a fast, but add these to your diet gradually. This is the best and smoothest way to get back to solid foods.

Cleansing Symptoms: As the juice cleanse begins the housecleaning process throughout the entire body system, it will be accompanied by periodic aches and pains in the area where the cleaning action is most acute and the wastage is loading up the elimination system. There may be times when you will feel very rough! Do not panic on these days after cleansing or during the periods of healing. In fact, the cleansing action may produce all the symptoms and effects of severe illness, but you should act with knowledge and not blame the temporary problem condition on the cleansing solution that is taking place, for patience is required here. Much comfort should be derived in the realization that the healing process is well underway, and the sooner such discomforts come and are felt, the better.

The elimination and cleansing process will not be accomplished instantaneously, and a person should not expect these lifetime accumulations that are packed in the system to be miraculously squeezed and flushed out of the tissues and organs in some “colonic fashion.” This will all take time – cycle time (working with the body’s normal cyclic function). In most cases, these “cleansing sicknesses” come at the end of seven days, seven weeks, seven months, etc. On each of these cyclic periods there may be a healing and cleansing crisis. When the toxic poisons break loose and are dumped into the blood stream so they can be eliminated from the physical body, you may feel strangely. Quite frequently during a crisis you may feel worse than you did before starting the program -- but again, do not panic. This is a normal occurrence. These crisis stages are merely toxic poisons placing a heavy load on the excretory channels while trying to get out of your body, and are doing you the favor of leaving as rapidly as possible, causing pain and discomfort during the elimination process. Professor Arnold Ehret’s book, “Mucousless Diet Healing System” may help you to understand some of the reactions you may experience while ridding your body of toxins, poisons wastes and mucous.

Supplies you will need:

64 ounces (2 quarts) - of Prune Juice
9 ounces of Olive Oil
3 gallons of juice – Apple, Grape, etc. – use only 100% pure juice
3 gallons of purified water

Cleansing Steps:

Step 1: Prune Juice – 16 ounces upon arising each morning
Step 2: Olive Oil -- 1 to 2 tablespoons 3 times a day
Step 3: Cleansing Juice and Water – 8 ounces of fluid every 30 minutes, alternating 8 ounces of juice with 8 ounces of purified water.

Suggested Time Schedule:

7:30 a.m. 16 oz. Prune Juice and 1 to 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
8:00 a.m. 8 oz. (or more) juice
8:30 a.m. 8 oz. (or more) purified water
9:00 a.m. 8 oz. (or more) juice
9:30 a.m. 8 oz. (or more) purified water
Continue alternating juice and water every half hour until noon
12:00 p.m. 8 oz. (or more) juice – and – 1-2 tablespoons Olive Oil
Continue alternating juice and water every half hour until 5:00 p.m.
5:00 p.m. 8 oz. (or more) juice – and – 1-2 tablespoons Olive Oil
Continue alternating juice and water every half hour until 9:00 p.m.
9:00 p.m. 8 oz. purified water until retiring for the evening.

The second step to healing the body is for an individual to eliminate the mucous-forming foods from the diet, since there is no need to put mucous into the body faster than it can be taken out or eliminated. With this preventative procedure, not only are the sinuses, the bronchi, and the lungs cleared, but also the constipating mucous (catarrh) in the tissues of the body from the head to the bottom of the feet. The program of foods that will achieve this wonderful result is referred to as the “Mucousless Diet”. The “Mucousless Diet” consists of whole “live” foods that give the body the necessary enzymes, organic vitamins and minerals to help it “live to the age of a tree”. The program outlines what to eat, what to avoid, and the daily herbal supplements that will provide the body with energy and nourishment.

A lengthy explanation is required on this subject, and in contained in a book that can be obtained that goes into the complete details and benefits of eliminating mucous from the diet. However, it is appropriate to include a short list of the Do’s and DON’Ts in this presentation:

The DON’Ts

• Salt: Substitute savory herbs, powdered kelp, coarsely ground black pepper, or vegetable salt/sea salt. Do not use processed, iodized salt. Black pepper is a good nutritional herb and helps rebuild the body when used in its natural state. But apply it only when ready to eat the food – do not add the black pepper to foods as they are being cooked – because this changes the molecular structure and it becomes an inorganic irritant.
• Sugar: Sugar and all sugar products should be eliminated. You may use honey, sorghum molasses or blackstrap molasses, but NO REDINED SUGAR of any type. There are other herbal sweeteners that are actually nutritious, such as Stevia and Xylitol – both are very good in taste and convenient to use.
• Milk: Eliminate dairy products, which include butter, cheese, cottage cheese, milk, etc. These are all mucous-forming substances, and in most cases, are extremely high in cholesterol. As a substitute for butter or margarine, you can train your taste buds to like and enjoy a good, fresh, Extra Virgin Olive Oil on vegetables and salads. You may also use Tropic Virgin Coconut Oil.
• Meat: Eliminate as much red meat from your diet as possible. When using red meat, such as beef, only get meat that been fed organically, and has not been given antibiotics and steroids, etc. And, be sure to cook the meat completely; eating red meat medium-rare to rare is asking for trouble. Try to eat more lean chicken, turkey, and ostrich – as these are the higher forms of edible flesh – again, making certain these animals have not been fed commercial foods or inoculated with formaldehyde and other anti-spoilage serums! Also, white fish is a good, healthy addition to the diet.
• Flour and Flour products: The reason that this is eliminated is that flour (white flour) when heated and baked at high temperatures, changes to a mucus-forming substance. It is really no longer a “food”, which means it has no life remaining therein. All wholesome food is organic, where un-wholesome food, or dead food, is inorganic matter. It is impossible to put “inorganic” matter into an “organic” body, and expect to achieve good results.

The DO’s

The following supplements will help build up strength in the body, start cutting the mucus out of the tissues, and remove the catarrh from the system. They are also excellent revitalizing and healing aids.

• Cayenne: Take one teaspoonful of cayenne three times per day. Since most people have difficulty in drinking water mixed with cayenne there are two excellent solutions to this dilemma. 1) Take cayenne in capsule form. There is no burning sensation whatsoever; and 2) Mix the cayenne with water, lemon or lime juice, honey or molasses, and apple cider vinegar. This makes a delicious tasting drink – which can be taken either cold or hot.
• Honey and Apple Cider Vinegar: Place one tablespoon of honey and one tablespoon of vinegar in warm water so that the honey will dissolve. Drink a small amount of this three times a day. Make sure to use ONLY apple cider vinegar – NOT distilled or other types of vinegar, as these are damaging to the body. Apple cider vinegar is medicinal and very beneficial. ***Cayenne may be added to this mixture.
• Molasses: Take one tablespoon three times a day of either sorghum or blackstrap molasses.
• Wheat Germ Oil: Take one tablespoon of fresh wheat germ oil three times a day. You may also use a good Flaxseed Oil, or Tropic Virgin Coconut Oil.
• Kelp: Take between 2 - 4 Kelp capsules daily as a preventative nutritional to keep the body in good condition. This can take the place of Sea Salt and helps build a new, healthier thyroid gland. Kelp powder can be used on salads, etc. If there is any indication of a thyroid problem, between 5 and 10 Kelp capsules should be taken per day.

The book, “Mucousless Diet Healing System” will teach a person how to eat, what to eat, etc., in order to achieve optimum health. If the diet is followed as outlined in the book, after a reasonably short period of time a person will have much more satisfaction from the foods they will be eating than previously experienced from other foods or diets. Normal weight will also be achieved. If a person is overweight, they will begin to lose this excess baggage; if one is underweight, they will gain after having passed their “new low” – as mucous must be expelled from the body before the good flesh can be restored!

Another essential item in building up the health of a person is the release of static electricity in the body by removing the shoes and stockings, or socks, and shuffling the feet through the lawn and grass for 10 – 15 minutes a day. This is what happens: In the process of giving life to the physical body, the hair acts as an antenna and pulls electrical energy from the atmosphere. As this electrical force comes in through the top of the head, it distributes amps and/or ohms to each organ, cell, gland, etc. The rest of the electricity is supposed to pass out of the body and into the earth through the feet. However, when we wear rubber, or synthetic-soled shoes, and wear synthetic socks or stockings, the electricity cannot be grounded properly, so it collects as static electricity in the body and we become mentally confused and frustrated from it. The human body is electric, and every function is based upon an electrical frequency. We should strive to maintain a balance of our energy frequencies so the energy can flow and channel properly throughout the body systems. A healthy body is a well-tuned network of electrical energy circuitry.

When we are dealing with long-standing health problems, we cannot expect to totally cleanse the body with one or two 3-day cleansing routines. Therefore, to rid the body of chronic conditions, or to prevent their occurrence, an extended herbal cleanse is an excellent path to follow. NOTE: This should be used in conjunction with the aforementioned mucousless diet.

Most people have pounds of old died fecal matter that is stored in the colon, which is toxifying the system and keeping the food from being properly assimilated. Because of this putrefied condition, most people engorge themselves with many times more food than the actual body requires. In the process they wear out their bodies in trying to get sufficient nutrition and are still always hungry and constantly eating. Whereas, after the bowel is cleaned, the food is readily assimilated, and a person can then sustain himself on about one-third the quantity of the current food consumption, and have about four or five times more power, vitality and life energy. Herein, the clean body is able to normally assimilate the simple food values through the cell structures in the colon instead of it being trapped in a maze of waste and inhibited by the hard fecal casing on the intestinal walls. Otherwise, the large part of nutrition is just pushed on and eliminated before it can be of any benefit to the body. Once the body is completely cleansed, these cleansing aids will no longer be necessary – and your food will be your medicine, and your medicine will be your food. After following this program properly, and the bowel is cleansed, this formula should be used only when needed.

Week #1: Upon arising each morning take 2 capsules of the Fen LB Lower Bowel Formula. Repeat this procedure one hour before lunch, and just prior to retiring for the night.

Thirty minutes before each meal take 2 capsules of the Barberry LG Liver & Gall Bladder Formula, and repeat this procedure prior to each successive meal.

Mid-morning and mid-afternoon, take 2 capsules of the Junipars Kidney & Bladder Formula.

Follow this exact same routine for the first six days – resting on the seventh day.

Week #2: Resume taking the herbal formulas exactly as previously mentioned – this time adding 2 capsules of the Red Clover Blood Purifying Formula one hour after each meal. Continue this for another six days – resting on the seventh. The one-week delay in adding the Red Clover Blood Purifying Formula is absolutely essential because of the extreme effectiveness of this formula. During the first week, the eliminative channels of the body are being opened, allowing a pathway of elimination for the ensuing toxins that will be loosened by the Blood Purifying Formula.

Continue this routine for six weeks – then rest for one full week. Repeat the above procedures exactly for a period of six months, and then rest for one entire month. At the end of this seven-month program you will be able to assess your progress and determine if further cleansing is necessary.

A complete explanation of the Herbal Cleansing Program is outlined in a book, which covers three aspects of health ~ Cleansing, Nourishing, and Healing the body through natural methods. In addition, many tips and suggestions are given – plus – a description of over 66 herbal formulas that are discussed and described, including the herbs used in each. The cost for the book is $9.95, and is a must for anyone who is interested in cleansing their body’s systems and achieving better health for themselves and their family.
