Detoxing Pre/Post Cycles

Hay Chaps,

When I have some extra time I will begin working on various threads on health and detox. I saw a few members wanting advice on various aspects of their health pre/post cycle. I'll see what I can post soonish.

Detoxification is a natural healing process needed more than ever in today`s toxic world. With the onslaught of chemicals in our food, air and water, we can all do with undergoing a specific program of periodic cleansing. An approach that is designed to lower the toxic burden accumulated in our tissues, while supporting the organs of elimination in a supportive and nurturing environment, is the type of program that will offer the most effective results in our pursuit of outstanding health.

What is detoxification?

We have all heard about the role of detoxification in creating great health; and many of us have experienced the detox process, some by attending a health retreat designed for this purpose, and some by virtue of a supervised fast or cleansing program initiated by a naturopathic practitioner.

But what exactly is detoxification, and what is happening in the body when we engage in this type of specialized program?

Essentially, detoxification is the body`s ongoing process of neutralizing and eliminating toxins from the tissues and organs of the body. It is the job of the liver to take harmful chemicals, toxins and byproducts of metabolism from the bloodstream, and alter them into safer substances to be excreted via the organs of elimination.

This process is always happening automatically, just like we breathe and our hearts beat, and it`s not something we need to think about on a day to day basis. It is a natural state of the body to be continually cleansing, and most of the time we don`t even notice it is happening.

With the amount of potentially harmful chemicals in our environment, our food, our personal care and cleaning products, in air and water pollution, and in the recreational drugs and medications that many people take; our body burden of toxic substances can rise. It is estimated that there are 50,000+ chemicals in production, with 10,000 of these used in food processing.

When the liver is unable to deal with an excess amount of circulating toxins, they can continue to move through the body, causing disruption and damage, before eventually being stored mainly in the fat cells of our organs and tissues, often being stored for years or decades.

Depending on the type of toxins held in the body, we can experience all sorts of chronic and degenerative conditions that have their underlying cause in an overwhelming burden of chemical overload. For example, one molecule of mercury can inhibit the function of up to 1000 zinc molecules.
By engaging in a "detoxification program" we are actively assisting and supporting the body in its own natural cleansing actions, to help in ridding the body of substances that may be detrimental to our health.

Why a specialized detox?

Before essential nutrients can become available to the cells for renewal and repair, we need to remove:

Metabolic waste
Excess proteins (fibrosis)
Mucous
Fat
Calcium
Heavy metals
Chemical residues
Drugs
Pollution
Radiation

Is there only one disease?

Many schools of thought promote the concept of there only being "one disease", that of toxaemia.

This theory proposes that if the body can be kept free and clear of toxic debris and waste, and if good nutrition is provided, the body`s natural healing processes will enable it to heal from any disease.

All effective natural healing methods combine some type of detoxification process.

What is involved in a detoxification program?

In the natural medicine world, a detox is a specific program of dietary changes and often herbal support to:

1)lower the amount of chemicals being ingested,
2)to provide nutrients that enhance the body`s natural processes,
3)to support the organs of elimination in clearing toxins out of the body quickly and safely

There are many styles of detox programs, but the best ones are those undertaken in an environment where all of these factors can be addressed, and there is an opportunity to rest and relax and focus on healing.

1)Lowering ingested chemicals

The first part of detoxification involves lowering the ingestion of not only chemicals in the diet, but often also lowering the amount of food consumed, to give the digestive system a rest and to allow energy to be diverted to cleansing rather than digesting.

Fasting is a universal natural response to disease, and there are several ways to fast; water only, juices, and mono foods being the most common.

To this end, most detox diets will involve a period of fasting, such as drinking only freshly made vegetable juices for several days. Only organic produce should be used for the juicing, to ensure no pesticides or other chemicals or contaminants are consumed.

After a juice fast, it is sensible to spend a period of time eating plain organic fruits and vegetables to allow the body time to adjust to whole foods again, while keeping the burden of ingested toxins to a very low level.

Water fasting can be too extreme for most people in today`s world, as we are carrying such a load of toxins that we need more than just our stores of nutrients to help the body to detoxify them properly. Many people are already malnourished and depleted, so water fasting is not appropriate in these cases.

Fresh organic juice provides a plentiful supply of enzymes to assist in the breakdown of toxic matter, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants to protect from free radical damage.

24 hours after starting a juice program, pancreatic enzymes are no longer needed for the digestion of food and can start digesting waste matter in the body. Not only do they start breaking down debris in the colon, but they can travel through the body and start digesting damaged cells, microbes, metabolic waste, acids, fibrosis, atherosclerotic plaques and deposits in the joints

2)Providing nutrients

As toxins are being released for excretion during the fasting phase, these substances can be highly reactive and create free radical damage. Not only as they circulate, but when they are processed through the first phase of liver detoxification, dangerous metabolites can be produced. A high level of antioxidants can offset this danger and protect the liver and the cells of the body.

This is why juice fasting can be so advantageous, as it supplies an enormous amount of concentrated vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that are easily absorbed. Organic juice means no toxins are being ingested and by being in a clean environment this lowers the daily burden.

Some detox programs also support the body with green nutrition such as wheat or barley grass, chlorella or spirulina. These green foods supply a high dose of nutrients, protein for the binding of toxins, and chlorophyll which is a powerful blood cleanser.

Healing nutrients:

By juice fasting and supplementing with concentrated green nutrition and herbs with fiber, we offer our body all it needs to cleanse and heal:

Enzymes
Vitamins
Minerals
Antioxidants
Carbohydrates
Chlorophyll
Protein
Fiber

Enzymes: enzymes are specialized proteins that accelerate or instigate chemical reactions within our cells. Malfunction of just one type of enzyme can be fatal.

All animals eat foods which also contain enzymes for their own digestion

Enzyme reserves can be depleted by cooked food; the demands on digestion from cooked foods means that enzyme activity is used for digestion rather than cleansing and healing purposes elsewhere in the body.

Enzymes are at the heart of physiologic healing, they have been called the "spark of life", a deficiency of which has been linked to chronic and degenerative illnesses

Metabolic enzymes build, cleanse and heal the body:

"After two decades of microscopic analysis of the cellular systems of thousands of people who have been guests at Hippocrates, we discovered and confirmed that digestive enzymes and enzymes found within plant foods clearly enhance the electrical frequency in and around cells of the body."
Dr. Brian Clements
Author of "Hippocrates LifeForce, Superior health and longevity"
Director Hippocrates Health Institute, Florida, for over 25 years

Vitamins: essential for life, they are co-factors in enzymatic reactions and required for producing energy needed for detoxification.

Minerals: essential for life, they are co-factors in enzymatic reactions, are required for
energy production, and are utilized in the liver for the binding of toxins.

Antioxidants: required for neutralizing free radical damage caused by circulating toxins, and by Phase 1 liver detox processes.

Carbohydrates: provide fuel for energy.

Chlorophyll: cleansing, blood building, antibacterial, antiseptic, alkalizing and oxygenating.

Protein: is found in concentrated green nutrition and is needed for binding toxins via the liver.

Fiber: acts like an intestinal broom to drag toxins, mucoid plaque and heavy metals out of the bowel, and provide fuel for the good bacteria colonies.

3)Supporting the organs of elimination

There are many organs and systems involved in the detoxification process, but some are more important than others and supporting their function results in a more thorough and pleasant detox.

Liver: the liver is the organ which does the most work during a detox. It takes pollutants out of the bloodstream, identifies them and makes them safe for excretion.

The first stage of this is called Phase 1 Liver Detox and that involves making fat soluble toxins more water soluble, so that they can be eliminated through the bowels or the kidneys. The outcome of Phase 1 is highly reactive toxic metabolites waiting for Phase 2 treatment. A high level of antioxidants are needed to balance and neutralize these substances.

Phase 2 Liver Detox uses various protein molecules to bind these intermediate products and make them safe to be eliminated.

Bowel: a lot of toxins are excreted through the bowel, so a well-functioning, moving bowel is an essential part of the detox. Many detox programs include bowel herbs, bulking fiber such as psyllium husks, products like bentonite clay which bind toxins, or cleanses such as enemas or colonic irrigation.

By cleansing and supporting the bowel in this way, we ensure the maximum removal of toxic substances.

Kidneys: the kidneys are another organ that filters and processes a large number of toxins. During a cleanse, drinking plenty of fluid supports kidney function, and using juices such as watermelon, celery, cucumber or black cherry can all enhance their detoxification ability.

Kidneys are also the repository for our "chi" energy or lifeforce, so plenty of rest, meditation, keeping warm and gentle movement, will all help to revitalize and nourish our kidney energy.

Skin: the skin can release many toxins, especially when it is helped by dry skin body brushing, and by spending time in a sauna. Both of these practices enhance the effectiveness of our detoxification, not only by allowing the release of toxins through the skin, but by moving our lymphatic system which drains and transports many waste products.

Breath: yes, you often will have "detox breath" during a cleanse! Our lungs are powerful
movers of toxic matter, and deep breathing during yoga or meditation is another tool we use
to support our body.

How long do we fast for?

Short fasts, or fasting one day a week are not a good practice.

During the first day of the fast, glucose levels drop and glycogen reserves can be depleted. The body will then start to draw on protein from the tissues to create glucose.

Following day one, the body adapts and starts to use fat as a source of energy and preserves protein. One day fasts will deplete body protein and serve no purpose for deeper detoxification of stored toxins in fat tissues.

Three days is a minimum, but the general rule is to fast until you feel hungry again. Not from habit, but from a true hunger.

Intermittent fasting can extent lifespan by 20-30%

"Studies have shown that fasted cells have the capacity for assimilation and growth characterized by the cells of young animals, demonstrating beyond doubt that fasting rejuvenates cellular function."
Sergius Morgulis, "Fasting and Undernutrition". University of Nebraska, E.P. Dutton, New York 1923.

What is a healing crisis?

A healing crisis is also known as the "Herxheimer Reaction" where the body tries to eliminate toxins at a faster rate than they can be disposed of, resulting in a possible increase in symptoms, or at times nausea, diarrhea, headaches, dizziness or mood swings.

Many people are reluctant to participate in a detoxification program because they are worried about feeling ill or experiencing some type of healing crisis during the detox.

The first day there are often the common symptoms such as the "caffeine withdrawal" headache, but days two and onwards are when the deeper toxins are being removed

These symptoms, however, are much more likely to occur when the organs of elimination are not properly supported. During a professional cleansing program, these reactions are minimized, as every element is designed to move toxins quickly out of the body, for a pleasant and comfortable experience.

How will I feel afterwards?

A comprehensive supervised detox program of at least a week`s duration once or twice a year works well. After spending that period of time cleansing, building your nutritive status, resting and healing, you will feel like a different person!

Skin often becomes clearer, eyes become brighter, energy and vitality expands, sleep is improved, aches and pains are gone, the bowel works better, mental clarity and concentration is improved, and many people shed a few extra kilos over the week.

By lowering your body burden of toxins, you may very well be helping to prevent the chronic health consequences that can come from long term exposure to the thousands of chemical pollutants saturating our environment today.

What a wonderful gift to give yourself!

I will also be posting more on methods I have integrated into my life. I will try to start a few threads specific to the best supplements on the planet for those interested.

The lemon detox diet - a recipe that really works

Also known as the Master Cleanse, this detox diet has been around for almost 50 years and has seen variations on its recipe and program. It's effectivity in breaking down built up toxins in the body while contributing to short term weight loss has made it a popular option for a spring detox.

Reviewing the Master Cleanse
The Lemonade Detox diet first became effective, strangely, when its creator, Stanley Burroughs, recommended it for the healing of stomach ulcers. In his book "The Master Cleanser", he goes on to share how he first came to test the Master Cleanse diet on a patient who was suffering from ulcer for three years. Left with no other recourse, the patient approached Stanley who recommended that he undertake the cleanse. After eleven days, the patient was totally healed to the amazement of the doctors. Many other cases followed with same consistent and astounding results corrected within ten days. Of particular note also was that those undergoing the Master Cleanse also experienced a reduction in weight.

If there have been doubts as to the veracity of Stanley Burrough's claim of the Lemon Detox diet's effectivity, there have been testimonies over the years of its efficacy. Of recent vintage is Tom Woloshyn's work, "The Master Cleanse Experience", published by Ulysses Press in 2009. This book briefly mentions Woloshyn's experience in advising clients who has undergone the Master Cleanse program and provides among other insights health benefits which include better sleep, positive outlook, clarity of mind and freedom from addictions. He, thus, advocates keeping a journal to monitor developments as well as a reference for future use when undergoing the program for the second or many more times over.

The Master Cleanse operates on the principle that, for disease to be addressed, cleansing must be undertaken. Simplifying and correcting disorders through this process is actually a way of correcting every disease. Developments in nutrition and science have clearly identified improper diet, negative mental attitudes and inadequate exercise as the factors that create the conditions to produce toxin build up over time. That is why the Master Cleanse is not an end to itself. It is actually just the tip of a long chain of healthy decisions of those who wish to undertake it. Observing a healthy diet, regular exercise as well as stress reduction is essential in maintaining the gains that the Master Cleanse Detox diet can offer.

Surrendering to the process
Undergoing a detox diet is just like preparing for a marathon. It is necessary to keep sight of your goals or you stand to be cast in the wayside, a victim of your doubts. Tom Woloshyn offers this delightful insight when encouraging first timers who wish to undertake the Master Cleanse, fully knowing its side effects firsthand. Defining the outcome after having identified where you are, and what you want to achieve is the next step to achieving the goal you have set for yourself.

According to Woloshyn, some people prepare themselves before undergoing the detox by going on a vegetarian diet. It's less stressful on the body and makes the transition to the Master Cleanse easier. For those who regularly take coffee or soda drinks, a gradual reduction in intake are recommended as well as taking pantothenic acid (vitamin B-5) to help prevent the onset of headaches brought about by caffeine withdrawal.

People who have undergone organ transplants as well as those on immune suppressant drugs cannot take the fast. Woloshyn warns that the cleanse stimulates the immune system while effectively inhibiting the results of the drugs, this combination will most likely lead to the organ transplant being rejected by the body.

How to do the Master Cleanse
The Lemon Detox diet is a cleansing program and encourages only the intake of lemonade made from the following ingredients: lemons, pure maple syrup, cayenne pepper and water for a minimum of ten days only.

To create the mixture, mix the ingredients in the amount instructed by Burroughs and drink a minimum of at least six to twelve glasses of the concoction daily through out the day. Drink the lemonade whenever hunger pangs strike.

A laxative must be taken in the morning and then in the evening. Using a salt water flush instead of a morning laxative can also be availed of instead. However, be sure to observe at least three bowel movements in a day. This will ensure that the waste accumulated in the intestinal walls is totally removed.

Always enjoy the Master Cleanse lemonade drink fresh and do not subject it to microwave as doing so will minimize its effectiveness. For each successful day, the psychological need to eat is slowly overcome full, providing confidence and a sense of control that motivates the person undergoing the diet.

Breaking the Master Cleanse is just as critical as starting it. On day one coming off the fast, immediately after the end of the master cleanse, slowly introduce orange juice into the diet. Day two will see the introduction of vegetable soups and broths. Day three observe a diet of fruits and vegetables. Be careful not to overeat or eat too soon and drink plenty of water. Slowly ease your self to a normal diet and avoid meat, fish, milk and eggs.

After undergoing the Master Cleanse, it is advisable to eat wisely. The gains derived from the Master Cleanse diet will surely be a powerful foundation to change old habits and start a life free from disease.

The lemonade recipe
The original recipe by Stanley Burroughs produced fantastic results for almost 50 years. However, some have been promoting alterations of the original recipe. The problem with this arrangement is that they are done without understanding why the original ingredients work. Since the Master Cleanse is essentially a juice fast, adding shakes, cayenne pepper capsules or protein powder in an attempt to improve its efficacy is self defeating because it reduces the efficacy of the diet.

The purpose of the program is to give the digestive tract a ten day vacation, so adding things to be digested does not contribute to the objective of the diet. Stanley Burroughs in fact discourages the intake of supplements and vitamins during the program because it interferes with the body's elimination system. Furthermore, the natural sources of vitamins and minerals already found in lemon and the maple syrup already provide for the body's needs during the detox program.

Other alterations include mistakes in the ratio of water through modification of the original recipe and dilution. This modification defeats the purpose of the minimum 6 drinks a day because it is more than the amount of water required. It is best to remember that variations on the process and especially in the recipe will not produce the results that originally worked for the many that faithfully followed the original Master Cleanse program and lemonade recipe.

This is the classic single serve recipe provided in Stanley Burrough's book:

2 (tbs). of lemon or lime

2 (tbs). of genuine maple syrup

1/10 tsp cayenne pepper

10 oz. water (hot or cold as preferred)

For those who cannot enjoy their lemonade, Tom offers this alternative:

1. Mix equal parts of lemon juice and maple syrup as a concentrate in a dark container. Keep this mixture cool.

2. Make enough concentrate for as long as you are incapable of making the fresh lemonade juice.

3. Every time you want a glass of lemonade, measure 4 tbs. of this mixture in a glass.

4. Add water and cayenne pepper, stir and drink. The maple syrup preserves the lemon juice and prevents oxidation of the vitamin C and enzymes.

Tom Woloshyn fondly recalled Stanley Burrough's remarks. He was said to have repeated many times over a phrase most technical people use when instructing frustrated customers, "When all else fails, follow the instructions." In order to ensure success and experience the benefits of the Master Cleanse Detox diet, it is essential to understand how to do the program properly. Faithfully following what has been prescribed is the first step in this direction.

Simple and a great track record there chaps.

Hay Chaps. Hope you found a few gold nuggets.

This one is a little more in depth and is also important. Lets raise the bar.

Why your detox is making you sick: Must-read article reveals dangers of aggressive detoxing?

I can't tell you how many people have told me that a "detox" protocol made them feel extremely ill. They take detox supplements, pills or tinctures, and within a few hours they suffer dizziness, diarrhea, chills, outbreaks or even vomiting. These symptoms range from mild to severe, depending on the person and what they've taken. Such is the legacy of what I'm calling "extreme detox supplements" that seem to be designed to cause as much suffering as possible while framing it all as a "healing crisis."

I've always had a problem with the idea that such symptoms are routinely explained away as a healing crisis; as if you must suffer before you can heal. In this must-read article, I'm going to blow away detox myths and reveal why many people suffer such extreme illness during a detox. I'm also going to teach you how to detox safely and get away from the serious health risks found in extreme detoxing protocols.

Also, I urge anyone reading this who is considering a liver detox, kidney detox or heavy metals detox to pursue such activities only under the supervision of a licensed naturopath or integrative medicine M.D. who can guide you with a personalized protocol that's right for you. Don't "wing it" when it comes to the serious business of an aggressive detox.

Detox basics: Your liver dumps toxins into your small intestine
To understand why an extreme detox can make people feel so sick, you first have to understand how detox really works. This is an oversimplified explanation, but the fundamentals are correct: Your liver filters toxins out of your blood, including pharmaceuticals, heavy metals, ammonia and chemicals.

Your liver then dumps these toxins into your upper GI tract as part of a bile mixture used for digestion. Importantly, this reintroduces these toxins into your digestive system, where they can be quickly reabsorbed through intestinal walls and cause acute toxicity where you are essentially being "re-poisoned" with the same exact toxins your liver just pulled out of your blood.

(Note: Your kidneys also remove many toxins and flush them out of your body through urine. This is why kidney function is so crucial to your health. The heavy metals cadmium and mercury cause severe kidney damage, by the way.)

If you are eating a holistic, whole-food diet at the same time your liver is dumping toxins into your GI tract, then food fibers will tend to capture those toxins and trap them, ultimately transporting them out of your body through bowel movements. But if you aren't eating any fiber -- for example, you're on a "juice fast" or a "juice cleanse" -- then you have a potentially huge problem: You have no fibers to trap the toxins your liver is dumping into your small intestines! So those toxins get reabsorbed right back through your intestinal walls and into your blood.

I've also done pioneering food science research on identifying which natural foods can absorb dietary heavy metals.

All this helps explain why drinking nothing but fiber-less juice (i.e. "juicing detox") during an aggressive supplement detox can be disastrous. If you aren't eating fiber during your detox, what you are really doing is:

1) Collecting all the heavy metals, toxins and poisons from your body's cells, tissues and organs.

2) Concentrating them in your liver (and bile).

3) Dumping them back into your small intestine all at once where they can now cause acute toxicity and poisoning.

This is all made even worse when the detox supplements you're taking are more effective at pulling toxins out of your body's tissues because then your liver is concentrating more heavy metals into bile and dumping them into your intestines. In effect, your body is concentrating the toxins, making them even more dangerous than they were before.

Fiber-less juice fasting while taking detox supplements may be a really bad idea
What makes all this worse is the fact that many detox protocols demand that you drink only fiber-less juice such as wheat grass juice, celery juice, carrot juice, etc. at the same time you are taking aggressive detox supplements. The lack of fiber in these juices means that many of toxins pulled out of the blood by the liver will be reabsorbed in the gastrointestinal tract, possibly at acutely dangerous concentrations.

After the diarrhea and cramping finally stops, people will often say, "I feel SO much better now! The detox worked!" Except for the fact that everybody feels better after diarrhea stops. Feeling better after making yourself sick is not exactly my definition of getting healthier.

As part of a daily diet, of course, juicing can be incredibly healing. I'm a long-time advocate of daily juicing or even short-term juice fasts, but juicing is by definition a fiber-less diet, and as a result it should never be used in conjunction with aggressive supplements that are going to increase the toxin load in the GI tract.

In other words:

* If you are juicing, don't take aggressive detox supplements at the same time.
* If you are taking detox supplements, make sure you are eating whole foods with plenty of natural fiber.

Sometimes feeling like you're poisoned means you are actually being poisoned
I believe it is extremely unfortunate that detox participants who suffer extreme symptoms are always told those symptoms are, in effect, "GOOD!"

Sometimes that's simply not true. Many participants in James Arthur Ray's sweat lodge spirit journeys were also told that their extreme dehydration and hallucinations were "good" as well, but it turned out they were on the verge of death. Indeed, three people died in his sweat lodge experiences, and James Ray was convicted of negligent homicide. (He was released from prison last year.)

Even as they were on the verge of death, these people were told that their symptoms were all part of the "spiritual journey" from which they would emerge as stronger people. This is nearly identical to the extreme detox message told to many consumers, in which even serious illness is excused away as part of the healing journey.

As I've examined this issue more closely over the years, I've come to the conclusion that the detox supplement industry is in a worrisome state of denial about the safety of its more aggressive products. This is probably why the FDA banned cascara sagrada in 2002 for use in laxative products (but it's still legal to use in herbal supplements).

Although it sounds bizarre, customers of extreme detox supplements made with cascara sagrada are actually taught that diarrhea is a sign of healing and is therefore something to be sought after when taking detox supplements.

I strongly disagree with this: diarrhea is never a sign of good health, and removing toxins from the body should never need to involve extreme suffering, nutrient loss or the kind of dehydration and cramping that comes with diarrhea.

Anyone who tells you a detox has to hurt to be effective should not be trusted.

Skip the extreme supplements and detox with real food
The longer I've examined the detox industry, the more confident I have become in the fundamental idea that your everyday diet is the only detox you really need.

Every food item you eat every single day, in other words, should be part of a cleansing and toxin elimination lifestyle. My view on this has evolved over the years, of course, and today I no longer believe we need to suffer through "detox" regimes to experience lasting health. A healthy, whole foods diet that's rich in fresh fruits, vegetables and plenty of clean water is, all by itself, a "daily detox."

Truth be told, your daily diet is either helping you eliminate toxins or accumulate toxins depending on what you eat. A diet of processed foods and contaminated supplements will increase your toxic burden, but a diet of fresh whole foods will naturally and automatically eliminate toxins.

Engaging in regular exercise that causes you to sweat will greatly magnify your body's detox capabilities, by the way. Many toxins are released in your sweat, and that explains why people who exercise regularly (or who use saunas as therapy) tend to be far healthier and less toxic than those who never sweat.

People who drink plenty of fluids also tend to be healthier: water helps your kidneys eliminate toxins with high efficiency.

Bottom line: Detox should never be a crisis
My bottom line in all this? I want to encourage us all to think in a more clear-headed manner about detox supplements and detox experiences. I have become increasingly convinced that extreme detox supplements may actually be causing more harm than good. Diarrhea is not healing, and the explanation that you need to suffer through a "healing crisis" just doesn't hold water.

In truth, every glass of clean water you drink is a "detox" elixir. Every stalk of celery you chew and swallow is a detox food. Every glass of fresh-squeezed orange juice you drink is a detox beverage. Every algae superfood you eat is a "detox" superfood. Every exercise that produces sweat is a detox exercise, and every hike into nature where you are surrounded by trees is a detox hike.

Your body is already programmed to detox itself automatically (which is why you have a liver and kidneys), so if you embrace a healthful lifestyle, your body will automatically detox itself with every breath, every heartbeat and every bowel movement.

Healing shouldn't hurt. If it does hurt, something's probably wrong with your approach.

Detox vs. fasting - which one should you choose?

There is a huge difference between detoxification and fasting, and yet the words tend to be used interchangeably. To detox is to facilitate the removal of toxins from the body whereas fasting is a severe restriction of calories. A fast may be a water fast where no nutrients are consumed, but the typical fast is to eliminate all solid foods while drinking a lot of fluids, including juices, to flush out the body. The Master Cleanse lemonade diet is a well-known example. The Master Cleanse does help to detoxify the body, so it is both a detox and a fast.

People often wonder if a beet juice fast, or a watermelon fast, or some other kind of fast is right for them. Be sure to do specific research for any program you try, or develop your own based on your needs.

Benefits of fasting to detoxify
Whether it be a viral, bacterial, fungal, or a parasitic infection, not eating is the easiest way to ensure you do not feed the infection.

Fasting quickly resets the taste buds, which can make it easier to enjoy healthy foods when the fast is over.

Not eating for a while can reset the appetite, allowing someone to come off of the fast more able to restrain from overeating.

Fasting can break or adjust psychological barriers with weight loss and food.

Fasting can kick start a weight loss diet by shedding pounds quickly.

For people with a severely compromised digestive system, juicing only, or exclusively consuming fruits that are very easy to digest, is often the best way to quickly facilitate healing.

When taking certain tinctures and other herbal formulas, fasting can ensure that no foods or herbs are eaten that could reduce the effects of the formula.

It is difficult for a toxic body to detoxify without supplemental support, even with a very healthy diet. Fasting can overcome this, especially when lots of fluids are consumed, flushing the body.

Benefits to detoxifying without fasting

I highly recommend eating while detoxifying. When made right, salads have amazing medicinal benefits. Try one with as many different vegetables as possible, from dandelion leaves to collard greens, and add a bunch of fresh garlic, lemon, and apple cider vinegar. Salads are the easiest way, in my experience, to digest a lot of raw garlic at once. Even if you don't care for salads, after a fast this sort of vegetable medley can be very appetizing. Check out the second source for a salad recipe.
It's possible to sustain a detoxification regimen longer when eating, which is imperative for ridding the body of many serious health afflictions.

Many foods are actually well known to aid the body in detoxification. Great examples are cilantro, garlic, turmeric, and cabbage.

Vegetable, spice, and herb health benefits often have accumulative effects when eaten together.

It's easier to get a lot of nutrition and a lot of garlic into the body.

When the intestines are healthy, nutrition is better absorbed as food.

Enzymes, found in fresh food, also help the body detoxify and rebuild.
It's true that the body is always expelling waste. A healthy person who has practiced eating a truly healthy diet that focuses on fresh produce and eliminates toxic food almost always eliminates more toxins than accumulated. These are the people who do detoxify every day, all day. Some assistance via supplementation, every now and then, can increase the body's ability to detoxify from environmental toxin accumulation.

Regardless, get nutrition

Restricted calorie programs don't have to restrict vitamins and minerals and other important nutrients. I recommend a good multivitamin/mineral formula regardless of whichever detox protocol you choose. Especially while fasting, a nutrition powder can significantly affect the results in a positive way.

Why You Must Make Garlic a Daily Super Food

This simple bulb has helped me huge gents. Wise up.

Garlic (Allium sativum) has the broadest spectrum of any antimicrobial substances we know of. "It's antibacterial, antifungal, antiparasitic, antiprotozoan and antiviral," asserted Paul Bergner, Director of The North American Institute of Herbal Medicine and author of The Healing Power of Garlic and several other herbal medicine books. This along with even more health benefits have been confirmed by other researchers, many from mainstream medicine.

Garlic's Healing Properties

Tests have found raw garlic more powerful than even penicillin and tetracycline. This is without destroying the digestive intestinal flora, which pharmaceutical antibiotics invariably do. It's also effective for TB and even Candida. Also, unlike heavy pharmaceutical antibiotic use, garlic does not diminish the immune system. It actually enhances the immune system.

Allicin, the active ingredient released when garlic is crushed, stimulates the immune system. Dr. Abdullah and his colleagues at the Akbar Clinic and Research Center in Panama City, Florida, found raw garlic dramatically increased the powers of the immune system's natural killer cells. Abdullah believes the immune boosting power of garlic could even be used to help AIDS patients.

Garlic prevents cancer and contributes toward tumor shrinkage, especially stomach, colon, and breast and prostate cancers. The Russians have known this for decades. More recently, this has been formally recognized by Dr. John Pinto, Ph.D of the normally anti-alternative natural cancer remedy Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Institute.

In the 1970s, Robert I. Lin, president of Nutritional International in Irvine California,
successfully used garlic to detox lead from children. That's not a well know attribute of garlic, and it's another reason everyone should use garlic often in our heavily toxic heavy metal environment.

Garlic has been used successfully for promoting cardiovascular health even among those who are having arterial or heart problems. Garlic dilates blood vessels to lower blood pressure, removes triglycerides, dissolves internal clots, and prevents oxidation of important lipids that lead to cellular destruction. All without side effects, of course.

Dr Irwin Ziment, a Los Angeles pulmonary specialist, regularly prescribes garlic as a decongestant and expectorant for common colds and as a mucus regulator for chronic bronchitis. University of New Mexico research has discovered that garlic destroys meningitis in-vitro (petri dish/test tube).

How to Include Garlic as a Super Food

Even though several studies have discovered even light use of raw and cooked garlic beneficial over non-garlic consumption, it's a good idea to consume mostly raw garlic daily to realize maximum benefits. The garlic must be freshly pressed and consumed after ten minutes and within one-half hour to forty-five minutes to absorb the allicin, which is released only when garlic is pressed, chewed, or juiced.

If you have a slow speed masticating auger juicer, three or four cloves juiced and mixed with purified water is an easy way to get a strong allicin dose. High speed juicers destroy enzymes. Nebulizing a small amount of freshly juiced and filtered garlic mixed with distilled water is great for regulating mucous in the lungs for chronic bronchitis and COPD sufferers.

Chewing a clove or two a day works just as well. You can disguise its pungent flavor by placing the cloves in food, even an organic peanut butter sandwich. Chewing fresh cilantro and parsley are common odor removing methods, with cilantro adding its heavy metal chelation to garlic's chelation process.

Researchers tend to agree that most garlic supplements don't match the allicin produced by freshly crushed raw garlic. Fresh garlic should be used, and it's recommended that you know the garlic source's soil quality or grow your own. Garlic's low cost and high health benefits should override odor and taste considerations.

I rate cheap simple and effective sh*t that has a genuine track record and is easy to implement.

7 Delicious Detox Diet Drinks To Try

Do you want to cleanse your body, but detox diet drinks seem disgusting to you? Many diets contain a detox phase.

Last one.

A lot of stress with a few members and their liver enzyme results. I have posted indepth information on the best local liver cleansing products already but I realize a more precise thread might be more useful to the wider community. So the idea is t star fresh.

Just remember folks, knowing your liver and kidneys well prior to banging aas stacks could prevent a lot of damage and stress.

Maybe you have a childhood memory of forgetting to clean your fish tank's filter. After all, it's easy to forget a fish tank even has a filter until it's so clogged up it starts to malfunction. Eventually, the tank is covered in slime and the health of your fish begins to fail. This scenario is much like the way we view our liver today. We often overlook the importance of the liver until it begins to adversely affect our health. However, this organ plays a vital role in cleansing, detoxifying and purification on a daily basis. The liver is also where many important nutrients are metabolized. Without a healthy liver, we cannot be healthy.

If you want to keep the environment clear and healthy in your fish tank, regular filter maintenance is a must. Similarly, if you want to enjoy vibrant health, maintaining your liver is crucial. When liver health is declining, you may experience a variety of symptoms including fatigue, sluggishness, hormone imbalances, acne, headaches and more.

In our literally toxic modern society, maintaining liver health is more important than ever. These natural herbs provide potent results in detoxifying and restoring the liver:

Milk Thistle. By far the most famous herb for liver health, milk thistle contains antioxidant flavonoids, which protect liver cells from damage by preventing toxin absorption and enhancing regeneration. Milk thistle is a part of most popular liver tonics, and it can also be ground fresh and sprinkled over food.

Artichoke. Thought to have a protective effect on liver cells, artichoke can aid liver regeneration and improve its function. It also supports bile production, which is important for digestion and assimilating valuable nutrients. Some clinical studies show artichoke can lower triglyceride levels, as well.

Dandelion. This herb makes an ideal liver treatment because it is highly effective and generally very safe (it is also quite inexpensive). All parts of the flower can be useful, but dandelion root is the most popular liver remedy, while the leaves are known for promoting kidney health.

Licorice. This remedy was often used in Eastern medicine to treat liver problems. One study reported licorice increased the production of interferon, which may explain this herb's unique ability to defend liver health from harmful toxins.

Keep in mind that any of these herbs should be used in conjunction with lifestyle factors which promote liver health, such as avoiding alcohol, caffeine and tobacco; staying active with regular exercise (even walking and yoga are highly beneficial); avoiding processed foods filled with junk sugars and chemical additives; and finally, learning to manage stress and developing healthy sleeping habits.


It is just a ABC intro it's late... tripping a little here now. yawn.

Gently detox with 4 superfoods to remove toxins from chem trails, heavy metals, noxious chemicals, pesticides, drugs, GMO by-products

Detoxing can be hard on your body and cause a wide variety of alarming side effects. After all, the substances being removed are usually pretty horrible, consisting of toxic chemicals from Teflon, vaccines, pesticide residues, pharmaceutical drugs, chemotherapy residue, heavy metals, aluminum, radiation, and even by-products from GMO foods. There are numerous detoxing agents and methods available -- some more costly than others -- and some producing very intense experiences with potentially dangerous side effects.

However, there are several ways to remove these noxious substances gently, with kindness to your system. These techniques may take a bit longer to achieve completion; however, if you have the time and are sensitive, or just don't like pain, one of these methods should work for you.

Pectin
Fruit pectin is probably the most gentle method of detoxing contaminants. Pectin comes from the fibrous portion of the fruit and is most commonly found in the pith of limes, lemons and other citrus fruit as well as in apples. Other sources of pectin are bananas, grapes, carrots, and cabbage. Pectin helps to release heavy metals, chemicals and other substances into the blood stream, where it binds to them and flushes them from the body. Simply eating fruit high in pectin will help to cleanse your system, or you can add a pectin product to a glass of water, organic grape juice or fresh veggie juice to speed the detox process. Beware of pectin sold in grocery stores, as some brands may contain MSG. Check health food stores for the best products.

Cilantro
The delicious culinary herb cilantro, happens to be one of the most effective and gentle detoxifiers of mercury, heavy metals and other toxic contaminants. You can buy cilantro juice at health food stores or simply include the fresh herb in your diet as pesto or seasoning to control the amount consumed and limit unwanted side effects. It's inexpensive and works without the addition of man-made chemicals. Cilantro also possesses antibacterial and antifungal properties, quickly reducing infection and inflammation as it works to clear your system.

Chlorella
Chlorella is a single cell algae sea vegetable that grows in fresh water. Some of the best cholrella reserves have come from Japan; however, use caution when buying Japanese chlorella due to possible exposure to radiation from Fukushima. Chlorella is an easy-to-digest superfood best known for being able to remove mercury and other heavy metals from the cells. Too much chlorella can produce side effects -- mostly in the digestive tract -- where it works best to bind to mercury, eliminating it. Start with the lowest quantity and work up slowly for a gentle detox.

Wheatgrass
Juicing fresh produce and grasses such as wheat or barley grass provides an excellent way to remove toxins from the system. Wheatgrass is high in nutritional content, and provides vitamins, minerals and all nine essential amino acids. Wheatgrass can be a powerful detox, so start slowly with only a small amount of juice to keep it gentle -- 1/2 ounce a day -- and work up to avoid symptoms.

Using gentle detoxing products requires that you repeat treatments over a period of time until all symptoms have cleared. Side effects may include nausea, vomiting, muscle aches and pains, dizziness and fatigue. Additionally, detoxing can cause a flare-up in your condition temporarily. It's just the toxins leaving your system and should pass shortly. If side effects are severe, reduce the quantity of whatever you're using to detox. If the symptoms continue, stop and consult your natural health practitioner for further instructions.

Hay member's ml here,

This one is very important due to glandular issues arising from AAS usage. I got some great Sh*t i'll post in later threads on crazy effective lymphatic system cleanses and maintenance protocols!!!

Clean your Body’s Drains: How to Detoxify your Lymphatic System

Did you know that we are exposed to 82,000 different toxins, chemically-based products and processed foods in our environment weekly?

Detoxification is the body’s natural, ongoing process of eliminating harmful toxins from the body so that it can function at its best. Toxins are man-made chemicals found in the air, water, food, household cleaners and cosmetic products as well as waste products produced by normal cellular activity.

When toxins enter the body through the skin, nasal passage or mouth, the body prevents “pollution” by surrounding the toxins with fat and water and stores them in different areas of the body. This can put a strain on our body’s own detox system (the liver, intestines, kidneys, lungs, skin, blood and lymphatic systems). These systems can become burdened as they try to safely excrete toxins.

Our bodies were not meant to work this hard to maintain optimal functioning. By adding a detox program to your wellness regimen, you can help pull these toxins, along with the excess fat and water, out of the body and improve your health quickly.

The Lymphatic System: Forgotten Hero

The lymphatic system is the most forgotten and least understood system in the body. It is critical to the detoxification process. The lymph travels parallel with the blood system and is responsible for the removal of wastes from every cell in the body, in addition to regulating the immune system. The lymph is thus a very important system to support optimal health.

Keep Your Body’s Drains Clean

The lymphatic system is like the garbage system of the body. Proper functioning of the lymphatic system is essential in order to properly eliminate wastes. Our lymphatic system can become and remain congested and stagnant for many years. Thus, we often live in an environment of toxins that weakens our immunity. Proper lymph drainage will eliminate these toxins and assist the body to function optimally.

Digestion: Where It All Begins

The body’s ability to detox starts in digestive system, in the villae of the small intestine. The “lacteals” in the villae are part of the lymphatic system and they pull nutrients and fat-soluble toxins off the intestinal wall. If the gut is constipated or there is excessive reactive mucus bogging down the villi, the lymph and its white blood cells may not provide immunity or detoxification.

The highest concentration of lymph is found lining the outside of the gut wall and is called the Gut Associated Lymphoid Tissue (GALT). The skin of the intestinal tract is constantly being exposed to toxins and undesirable microbes that could present a problem. So, the body has an immunity army waiting in the GALT just across the wall of the gut.

Dr. Vodder’s Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD)

Lymph vessels are also found under our skin throughout the body. These vessels support circulation, drainage of waste and immunity. When the lymph flow slows, the skin will appear dull and toxins will build up.

Since the lymph moves against gravity, it is common for the lymph and veins to congest, yielding an unsightly appearance in the feet, legs, thighs, hips, belly and arms.

Dr Vodder’s Manual Lymph Drainage (MLD) is a gentle rhythmical technique that gently works on the lymphatic vessels to enhance the flow of lymph throughout the body’s tissues.

MLD also helps to support the healthy function of the immune system and the autonomic nervous system, thereby reducing stress. The therapy cleanses the connective tissue of wastes, thus decongesting and reducing edema, pain and swelling.

Benefits of Manual Lymph Drainage Therapy

• Faster recovery and less scarring from surgery and other types of trauma by making lymph flow faster and stimulating the formation of new connections between lymph vessels

• Clears congestive conditions such as chronic sinusitis, bronchitis, acne, and headaches

• Strengthens the immune system

• Relieves heaviness tightness and swelling in those suffering from lymphedema.

• Increases overall relaxation by decreasing stress

• Relieves retention of fluids during pregnancy and menstrual cycle

• Decreases local edemas and hematomas from orthopedic surgery, cosmetic surgery scars, and burn scars; leading to a decreased in healing time and increase in client mobility

• People who suffer from insomnia, stress, fibromyalgia, and autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis, lupus, and rheumatism benefit greatly from MLD

Detox Waters to Cleanse Your Body and Mind

There is a reason why detoxing is becoming so incredibly popular with everyone from celebrities to everyday people who are wanting to get themselves fit – it really works! In our modern age, with the exposure to chemicals in food, tap water, even the air itself, detoxification is a great way to help the body remove these chemicals and to help promote long-term health.

One easy way to detox is to try some of the recipes for detox water below. These water-based drinks all contains natural ingredients that are known to help the body remove toxins, heavy metals and other unwanted substances before they can do the body any harm. And they are a truly delicious way to help get healthy!

Fat-Burning Fruity Water

Slicing up any combination of the following fruits: apples, kiwis, grapefruits, limes or pineapples – into regular water is a great way to help burn fat. These fruits are chuck-full of fiber to help curb the appetite, making it easier to eat less without suffering from hunger pangs. Grapefruit and other citrus are also known metabolism-boosters to make the body more efficient at trimming away extra pounds.

The Morning Detox

Adding the juice of one squeezed lemon, a dash of cayenne pepper and a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar to a glass of water and drinking it first thing in the morning is one of the simplest ways to detox. This combination will stimulate the production of bile, which aids good digestion and also boost liver function, so that it becomes more efficient at removing waste and toxins from the body. Be sure to drink it on an empty stomach around half an hour before breakfast.

Apple-Cinnamon Detox Treat

Who doesn’t like the taste of apples and cinnamon? For this delicious and healthy treat, add sliced apples and two cinnamon sticks to a pitcher of water, let it steep in the refrigerator overnight, then strain and enjoy. Apples contain pectin, a form of fiber known to be particularly good at binding with a removing toxins from the body and cinnamon contains powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compounds which can help protect the cells from free radical damage.

Cucumber Quencher

For a great summer quencher, add sliced apples and cucumbers as well as a few mint leaves to a pitcher of water, allow it to steep overnight, then strain and enjoy. This will truly hydrate the body as well as providing healthy fiber, vitamins and minerals, and antioxidants – all of which make it easier for the body to rid itself of toxins.

None of the waters mentioned above take more than a minute or two to make – and most people probably already have the necessary ingredients hanging out in the refrigerator or cupboard! But regular consumption of drinks like these can truly have a positive impact on the body’s overall health through ridding it of unwanted toxins and promoting its very best function.

Easy peazy dudes.

Just bang it!

Coconut time with ml folks,

Learn How to Detox with a Coconut Oil Cleanse

With fad detox methods around every corner, it's hard to know which one can provide a healthy cleanse without unpleasant side effects. A coconut oil detox is an excellent way to cleanse without using complicated formulas or living off nothing but water for days on end. Coconut oil is a powerful cleansing food that also provides plenty of natural energy during a detox.

Coconut oil is largely comprised of medium-chain fatty acids, which are sent directly to the liver for energy rather than storage. This type of fat is ideal for a cleanse, since it can provide the energy needed at a time when less food is being consumed.

These same medium-chain fatty acids play a crucial role in cleansing the body from toxins. Coconut oil is heralded as a natural health food, and a coconut oil detox simply speeds up healing results by thoroughly flushing the entire body of toxins in a short time. Here are just four types of conditions coconut oil can combat during a detox:

- Candida. In modern society, candida overgrowth is almost an epidemic. More people are experiencing systemic candida, when the problem spreads throughout the body and causes a myriad of unpleasant side effects. A coconut oil detox is completely void of sugar and other carbohydrates, which effectively starves off all candida in the system. People who suffer from candida will notice many conditions improve or disappear after a coconut oil detox, including sugar cravings, fatigue, eczema, acne, repeat sinus infections and poor concentration.

- Fungal infections. Often connected with candida, repeat fungal infections like ringworm and jock itch are linked to an imbalance of bacteria and fungal organisms in the body. The lauric acid and caprylic acid in coconut oil are antifungal, so a coconut oil detox is an effective way to cleanse the entire system of fungal growth. Many people with fungal conditions report a complete recovery within the cleansing period.

- Digestive conditions. A coconut oil detox can help banish digestive conditions like irritable bowl syndrome (IBS) and leaky gut syndrome by restoring health and balance to the digestive system.

- Viruses. Lauric acid, which is found in abundance in coconut oil, is converted into monolaurin in the body, which has strong antiviral properties that can protect against and even destroy lipid-coated viruses like herpes and influenza.

How to Detox with Coconut Oil

A coconut oil cleanse is a very simple detoxification method that replaces regular food with coconut oil, usually for about 3-7 days. Start your day with two tablespoons of coconut oil and take 1-2 tablespoons throughout the day as necessary for up to 14 tablespoons total each day.

Take the coconut oil plain if you enjoy it that way, but those who can't tolerate swallowing the oil straight can mix it with warm lemon water or plain organic yogurt if necessary. You can use stevia if you'd like to sweeten the lemon water or yogurt, but no sugar should be consumed during the cleanse. In his book Coconut Cures, Dr. Bruce Fife adds that you can eat up to four ounces of fresh coconut meat daily while on the detox if needed.

The best kind of coconut oil to use to detoxify is organic, raw extra virgin coconut oil. This type of oil should be completely unrefined, expeller- or cold-pressed, unbleached and not deodorized. This ensures you are getting the maximum natural benefits from your coconut oil.

If you have never taken coconut oil before, then you'll want to let your body adjust by slowly incorporating it into your diet before trying a coconut oil detox. Start with 1/2-1 teaspoon three times per day. Gradually work your way up to 1-2 tablespoons three times daily. It may take two weeks to work up to the full amount. When you feel comfortable taking this much coconut oil, then you should be ready to start a coconut oil detox.

Some people will experience "die-off" symptoms when they begin a coconut oil detox. These symptoms are often flu-like, including headaches, joint stiffness, dizziness and foggy-thinking. It may not feel so good, but it's a sign that your body is ridding itself of harmful toxins like fungal organisms. Die-off symptoms usually only last for 3-5 days, but you can ease them by gradually introducing coconut oil to your diet before doing a detox.

During a coconut oil detox, it's important to drink plenty of filtered water to nourish the body and facilitate cleansing benefits. Here is a recipe for a delicious drink that can replenish you during a cleanse:

1 cup pure lemon juice
6 cups filtered water
1 teaspoon sea salt

The lemon juice has cleansing properties, and the sea salt replaces minerals that may be lost during a cleanse. Add stevia for a sweeter taste, but do not sweeten with any kind of sugar.

Remember, if you have medical conditions or if you are on prescription medications, it's important to talk with your physician before trying a coconut oil cleanse.

Keep it simple son.

REMINERALIZING THE BODY

All information in this article is for educational purposes only. It is not for the diagnosis, treatment, prescription or cure of any disease or health condition.

A primary goal of every nutritional balancing program is to replace missing vital minerals in our bodies. Everyone today is low in these important nutrients. One can say there is mineral starvation, no matter how many calories or how much protein one eats.
Replenishing minerals is not that easy. Medical books say that to just replenish one mineral can take 9-12 months. We seek to replenish at least 25 minerals, so this is an involved process.
However, there are ways to speed up the process. Some may sound unusual, but they work. This is the subject matter of this article.
The article is divided into:
I. Remineralization concepts.
II. Specific steps to implement each concept or principle.

I. REMINERALIZATION CONCEPTS

Remineralizing a body quickly requires much more than just supplying the body with plenty of minerals. Here are the remineralization concepts used with a nutritional balancing program:

1. Provide the correct minerals.

2. Improve digestion so minerals will be absorbed and utilized better.

3. Help the body conserve the minerals it has.

4. Balance the autonomic nervous system.

5. Increase adaptive energy production.

6. Remove the need for adaptation.

7. Improve biological transmutation.

8. Improve hydration, oxygenation and circulation.

9. Eliminate intestinal infections and parasites.

10. Use placeholders.

11. Move The Body Toward A More Yang State

12. With all the following, keep the body always in a balanced oxidation state and a balanced sodium/potassium ratio for maximum healing power.

13. Take care of other problems, as needed, such as structural blockages or dental problems.

II. SPECIFIC PROCEDURES FOR EACH CONCEPT ABOVE

1. PROVIDE THE CORRECT MINERALS

All of our food today is lower in minerals than it was 100 years ago. This is due to modern agriculture and the “green revolution”. Obtaining enough minerals from the food is thus difficult, even if one is very careful about the diet. We are acutely aware of this problem, which is why remineralizing the body is so important today.
Methods used to provide enough minerals are:

1. Lots of cooked vegetables. Food contains forms of minerals that are not easily available from pills and powders. The program focuses on the diet.
Cooked vegetables are important because Minerals are not absorbed nearly as well from raw vegetables and raw grains.
2. Some meat and whole grains. These also supply needed minerals.
3. Some dairy and beans, but not too much because they are yin and low etheric.
4. Whole foods. Minerals are generally removed from processed and refined foods.
5. Bone broth. Only cook this for 3-4 hours.
6. Organically grown food, if possible. In a number of studies, organically grown food contains more minerals than commercially grown produce and other crops.
7. Drink mineralized water (either spring water or carbon-only filtered tap water. Also, one must drink 2-3 quarts daily.
8. Sea salt, used liberally. Table salt has had most of its minerals removed.
9. 10-12 ounces of carrot juice daily or one-two ounces of wheat grass juice daily – and no other juices. These also help supply needed minerals.
10. Supplements of 4000 mg of kelp daily. This is very important, as it contains a lot of iodine, a mineral everyone needs today due to the presence of iodine antagonists in the environment. It also supplies many other minerals in an easy-to-use form.
Kelp contains some mercury and other toxic metals. However, it also contains a lot of alginates, which bind and prevent the absorption of most toxic metals in the kelp.
11. Supplements of chelated calcium, magnesium and zinc. These are placeholders, but very needed for most everyone due to low levels in the food or soil.
12. At times, other chelated mineral supplements.
13. NO to colloidal minerals, fulvic minerals or humic minerals, all of which contain too many toxic metals. Trace minerals from the sea and fruit or fruit juices do not contain the right balance of minerals. Distilled and reverse osmosis water are devoid of minerals. Chemicalized food, refined food, fast food and other lower quality food is generally much lower in minerals.

2. IMPROVE DIGESTION SO MINERALS WILL BE ABSORBED BETTER

Most people have weak digestion today. Restoring excellent digestion is an important goal of all nutritional balancing programs, and requires a number of years, in most cases.
This is done with:
1. A diet of easy to digest foods.
2. Very simple food combinations.
3. A powerful digestive aid with all meals.
4. Probiotic foods – but only a little yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, and miso. Only a little because they are all yin, and no others because others contain aldehydes or other toxins.
5. Healthy lifestyle, with plenty of rest and low stress.
6. Healthful eating habits.
7. Use of a red heat lamp or better, a red heat lamp sauna. The light needs to shine on the abdomen daily.
8. Coffee enemas. These help greatly to restore the liver and colon.
9. Restoring all the digestive organs. This requires every aspect of a nutritional balancing program – the diet, lifestyle, supplements and the procedures.
10. AVOID ANYTHING THAT INTERFERES WITH DIGESTION. This includes:
- Food Additives
- Toxins found naturally in some foods such as most herbs, nuts, seeds, sprouts, spirulina, chlorella, nightshade vegetables.
- Toxins in medical drugs and over-the-counter items
- All smoothies, shakes, and juices except for some carrot juice or wheat grass juice taken alone, not with meals. The reason is that smoothies are usually very bad food combinations, are too yin, and contain liquid which always interferes with digestion of food.
- Avoid eating when upset, and eat slowly, chew thoroughly, and eat very simple food combinations.

3. HELP THE BODY CONSERVE MINERALS IT ALREADY HAS

This is also very important. It is done by:

1. Reduce all stress on the body. Important ways to do this ar:
- Lifestyle – such as getting enough rest, and not too much exercise.
- Maintain healthy emotions and thoughts.
- Eat a low-stress diet, which is the type of diet we recommend.
- Balance the oxidation rate and the sodium/potassium ratio.
- Drink enough of the right kind of water, and avoid stimulants.

2. Restore the kidneys. Some people excrete minerals if the kidneys are weak. A nutritional balancing program will slowly restore the kidneys.

3. AVOID:
- Chelation therapy. This may remove some toxic metals. However, it also often removes some vital minerals.
- Giving blood. One loses a lot of minerals when giving blood. For hemochromatosis and iron overload, giving blood is not needed if one follows a nutritional balancing program.

4. BALANCE THE AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM

This is very important to remineralize the body. The reason is that digestion and absorption of nutrients require activation of the parasympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous system.
Many people live in a condition we call sympathetic dominance. This means they overuse the sympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous system. This inhibits the parasympathetic branch because the two branches are antagonistic.
As a result, digestion is weak, and will remain weak, no matter what is done to the digestive organs. The digestive system simply does not receive enough nerve energy or vital force because the body’s energy is directed to the brain and the muscles – and away from the digestive organs - by the sympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous system.

The ways we balance the autonomic nervous system are:

1. Proper diet with loads of cooked vegetables and no fruit or sugars.
2. Proper supplementation that relaxes the nervous system and nourishes the parasympathetic system.
3. A healthy lifestyle with plenty of rest and going to bed early.
4. Not too much exercise. Exercise powerfully stimulates the sympathetic nervous system.
5. Daily use of the red heat lamp sauna. This powerfully shuts down the sympathetic nervous system in a number of ways.
6. The pushing down exercise. This is very balancing for the body and brain.

5. INCREASE ADAPTIVE ENERGY PRODUCTION

Our bodies are energy-producing machines. Without enough energy, nothing much happens in the body.
One can eat enough minerals, fix the digestive system, fix the autonomic nervous system, and eliminate toxin exposure. However, if one’s energy level is low, remineralizing the body will occur slowly, or not at all.
The car analogy. An analogy is that our bodies are like a modern automobile that has power steering, power brakes, power windows and power door locks. If anything happens to the power, you are in trouble!
A friend had this happen. He had to leave his fancy car by the roadside with the doors unlocked and the windows open because the car’s power went down.
Improving the adaptive energy level of the body is not the same as giving a person lots of energy to run around. You can do that with drugs.
Restoring adaptive energy is more subtle. It requires:
- Balancing the oxidation rate on a hair analysis that is properly performed and interpreted.
- Balancing the sodium/potassium ratio.
- Make the body much more yang.
- Restore the energy pathways of the body.

6. REMOVE THE NEED FOR ADAPTATION

This may seem unusual as a way to remineralize the body. However, it is essential. Here is how to understand this idea.
The body holds on to certain toxic metals and/or toxic forms of minerals because it must have them to keep the sodium level and adrenal activity adequate. This was a research finding of Dr. Paul Eck, who taught me this science.
Therefore, in order to eliminate these toxic metals, and replace them with the vital alkaline reserve minerals, one must eliminate the body’s need for the adaptation of holding on to the toxic metals.
One can supply minerals, improve digestion, and fix the autonomic nervous system, and all that is good. However, to release certain metals, one must also get rid of the need for adaptation. Once one does this, the toxic elements release quite easily. The way this is done in nutritional balancing is:
- supplements that support adrenal activity and the sodium/potassium ratio.
- a healthful lifestyle with plenty of rest and sleep.

7. IMPROVE BIOLOGICAL TRANSMUTATION

This is another unusual measure. However, human beings can transmute some minerals or elements into other elements. This can be very helpful to remineralize the body. Nutritional balancing programs help restore this ability of the body.
In order to do so, the program does the following:
- Supply certain minerals that will be transformed.
- Increase the adaptive energy or vitality of the body.
- Restore the digestive system, especially the intestinal flora, sometimes called the microbiome.



8. IMPROVE HYDRATION, OXYGENATION AND CIRCULATION

This is also needed for remineralization. The blood must circulate well to carry the new minerals to where they belong, and to remove toxic metals and other toxins that are in the way. Excellent hydration and circulation are thus essential. These are weak in most people.
The way they are improved with a nutritional balancing program include:
- The proper type and amount of drinking water.
- Some exercise, preferably daily.
- Use of a near infrared lamp sauna daily.
- Foot reflexology daily.
- The Pushing Down Exercise.

9. ELIMINATE INFECTIONS AND PARASITES

These often occur in the intestinal tract and can impair digestion and absorption of nutrients. These infections are different from having incorrect flora in the intestines.
These infections can be viral, for example, such as chronic hepatitis. They may affect any of the organs and tissues of the digestive tract.
Parasites are quite common, especially liver flukes. They can affect the absorption of nutrients depending upon which one(s) are present, and how severe is the infestation.
Fortunately, a complete nutritional balancing program slowly gets rid of all intestinal infections, and all parasites. No anti-parasitic or anti-infective herbs or other products are needed. Most doctors cannot believe this, but it does occur for the following reasons:.
1. The more yang diet does not support infections and parasites.
2. GB-3, which contains ox bile and pancreatin, has an anti-parasitic effect.
3. Red heat lamp therapy has a beneficial effect.
4. Coffee enemas are excellent to help rid the colon and the entire digestive tract of infection and parasites.
5. Balancing the oxidation rate, the sodium/potassium ratio, and making the entire body more yang have powerful healing effects.

10. USE PLACEHOLDERS TO SPEED UP REMINERALIZATION

The placeholder concept is that one can give supplements that are not the perfect mineral, but they are good enough that they “hold a place” in the body until the body can obtain the proper mineral compounds.
For example, we use chelated calcium, magnesium, zinc and sometimes other chelated minerals such as manganese and copper.
I don’t believe these are the ideal mineral compounds for the body. However, they seem able to correct the mineral balance and therefore they allow the body to heal at deep levels. Over time, the body will obtain the proper mineral compounds from the diet, and these will be substituted for the “placeholder minerals”.
An analogy is building a scaffolding around a building while it is being erected. Once the building is complete, the scaffolding is no longer needed, and is removed.

11. MOVE THE BODY TOWARD A MORE YANG STATE

Yang means warmer and more compact. Making the digestive tract more yang helps get rid of “cold” infections, which include many intestinal infections and parasitic infections.
Moving the body toward a more yang state is also necessary to heal some cases of “leaky gut”. This is the common condition in which partially digested food or other chemicals are absorbed into the body through the intestinal wall. This is a common cause of food allergies, fatigue, and other symptoms.
A leaky gut can be due to infection, inflammation or other problems with the intestine. An important cause, however, is a yin or expanded condition of the intestinal tract. It means there are too many spaces or openings in the intestinal lining through which chemicals and other foreign proteins can be absorbed.

12. KEEP THE BODY BALANCED

As all of the above proceed, they must be done in a way so as to keep the oxidation rate and sodium/potassium ratio balanced. Otherwise, the healing energy or adaptive energy of the body decline and remineralization slows.

13. TAKE CARE OF OTHER PROBLEMS, AS NEEDED

For example:
- We recommend chiropractic care for everyone because keeping the spine limber is important for proper digestion.
- Dental problems need to be solved if they interfere with chewing. Root canal-filled teeth should all be removed because most are infected with deadly germs.

Renaltrex®
Herbal Kidney Support Formula

Renaltrex is an energetically enhanced, all-natural blend of powerful, organic and wildcrafted herbs. It's specially formulated to support normal function and detoxification of the kidneys.

A Brief History of the Invention of Renaltrex
Dr Group
Dr. Edward F. Group III, DC, ND
Renaltrex is the result of unparalleled ancient wisdom reinterpreted in the light of modern equipment and analysis.

The history of Renaltrex is based on our Spagyrex® process which was invented during Dr. Group's research into the root cause of good health. He found that health is affected when the body becomes contaminated with toxins and the internal self-healing mechanism is suppressed.
Thus began his quest to create the most powerful herbal kidney cleanse product and it started by studying the works of the famous 16th century healer, scientist and alchemist, Paracelsus.
Paracelsus, originated Spagyria (Spagyry), which means to extract (spao) and combine (ageiro). The word was used to describe a process of transmuting a preparation of herbs into an elixir of health and longevity.
Dr. Group took this original technology and advanced the spagyry-based processes to create the Spagyrex® process, a revolutionary, multi-step, proprietary technique that separates and recombines all the elements of an herb to produce the most powerful essence of its healing nature. This results in a Harmonious Organic Supercharged Extract.



The Top 5 Reasons You Need Renaltrex
1. Promotes Normal Kidney Function

Your kidneys are instrumental for filtering impurities. If they don't function properly, toxins can accumulate.

2. Detoxifies the Kidneys

With a key role in your body's waste management system, your kidneys come into contact with many toxins. A kidney cleanse can help flush excess uric acid, deposits, and toxins.

3. Supports Whole Body Detoxification

The importance of liver cleansing and colon cleansing is well known. Enhance your total body cleansing protocol and boost your health by targeting your kidneys, too.

4. Highest Quality Kidney Supplement Available

Livatrex is the result of unparalleled ancient wisdom reinterpreted in the light of modern equipment and analysis.

The history of Livatrex is based on our Spagyrex® process, which was invented during my research on the root cause of disease. I found that all disease is caused when the body becomes so contaminated with toxic residue from our daily lives that our own internal self-healing mechanism is suppressed. These toxins come from air, food, water, beverages, harmful organisms, stress, radiation, and many other potential sources.
This led us on a journey to create the most powerful herbal liver support product on the market. It all started by studying the works of the most famous 16th century healer, scientist and alchemist, Paracelsus.
Paracelsus, composed the word Spagyria (Spagyry), which means to extract (spao) and combine (ageiro). The word was used to describe the process and power of transmuting a preparation of herbs into an elixir of health and longevity.
Dr. Group took this original technology and advanced the science and art of spagyry-based processes.
Our Spagyrex process combines ancient and current technologies to create a revolutionary, multi-step, proprietary alchemy and spagyry-based processing technique. This follows the principle of separating and recombining all the elements of an herb, to extract the most powerful essence of its healing nature. This results in a Harmonious Organic Supercharged Extract.

A healthy liver helps digestion and supports proper body weight.
Promotes the elimination of liver stones.
Supporting your liver helps overall body detoxification.
Rejuvenates energy levels.

What Is Oxygen - Its Origin - Its Action?

Oxygen is the most important element of life. We find this life-giving element as molecular Oxygen in the air. A healthy body can inhale and transport enough Oxygen to maintain itself in good repair.

But, due to an ever increasing lack of, destruction of and polluting of the Oxygen (as well as food and water) in our environment, we see disease and suffering on the increase. An ailing body often cannot make use of Oxygen efficiently through inhaling either normally or artificially because in most cases the necessary biological carriers (minerals, nutrients, blood factors) for it are lacking. Subsequently the Oxidation process falls short and acute. Chronic and incurable ills result. Fasting would allow the Oxidation of disease matter, but fasting is limited as molecular Oxygen cannot Oxidize quickly enough to eliminate all disease causing impurities or foreign matter (toxins).

Therefore in order to succeed, we need other Oxygenating or Oxidizing methods to eliminate the cause of disease. We make use of Oxygen in another form using other channels than the respiratory tract. Since the real cause of disease is located in the digestive tract and its organs, we therefore must deliver the purifying natural agents directly to the alimentary (digestive) tract. Starting the detoxification or purification directly from that point, enhances the creation and circulation of normal vital fluids. Only, if the passages are clean, their composition pure and perfect, can we then expect a normal working body or that state we call homeostasis or health.


Oxygen-Therapy-Blass© and its basic preparations releasing "Nascent Oxygen" within the body


These Laxative and Anti-Laxative Alkaline Compounds are not poisonous medicines but life-giving and supporting elements. Oxygen is the most important element of Life. Everybody should be aware of this fact. It is the source of life and through Oxidation the universe is maintained. We find this life-giving element as molecular Oxygen (02 or 2 atoms in 1 molecule) in the air (about 21% by volume) and a healthy body can inhale and transport enough to maintain itself in good repair.

But, today due to an ever increasing lack of, destruction of, and polluting of the Oxygen (as well as food and water) in our environment, we see disease and suffering on the increase. An ailing body often cannot make use of Oxygen efficiently through inhaling either normally or artificially because in most cases the necessary biological carriers (minerals, nutrients, blood factors) for it are lacking. Subsequently, the Oxidation process falls short and acute chronic and incurable ills result. Fasting would allow the Oxidation of disease matter, but fasting is limited as Oxygen cannot "Oxidize" quickly enough all disease causing impurities or foreign matter (toxins).

Therefore, in order to succeed, we need other "Oxygenating or Oxidizing" methods to eliminate the cause of disease. We make use of Oxygen in another form using channels other than the respiratory tract. Since the real cause of disease is located in the digestive tract and the organs, we therefore must deliver the purifying natural agents directly to the alimentary (digestive) tract. Starting the detoxification of purification directly from that point, enhances the creation and circulation of normal vital fluids. Only if the passages are clean, their composition pure and perfect, can we then expect a normal working body or that state we call "Homeostasis or Health." This of course, requires each organ be intact and performing its normal function.

Therefore: "Do Not" allow any organ to be taken out of your body, but keep your body intact as nature has made it.


THE DISCOVERY OF OXYGEN-THERAPY


Molecular Oxygen was first found in the air by the physician "Priestly" in 1774, however, the presence of its life-giving power was known long before. We find references in history to the "Breath of Life" and "Prana" in all ancient civilizations. The German chemist "Scheele" had found Oxygen in the air in 1773. Priestly was the first man who showed the Oxygen road to a drugless, knife free and needle-less healing. He truly was inspirer of our present day 'Oxygen-Therapy-Blass©'. Following his directions given in 1774, many humane and worthy physicians, chemists and other health scientists kept busy trying to reach this goal. Nearly 140 years later a German Chemist, after much hard struggles, successfully reached this end. He discovered and perfected a preparation which proved by practical tests, to be not only a purifier of the alimentary tract but also to release Nascent (free, available, active) Oxygen that follows the channels of the vital fluids. In fact, this Nascent (free, available active) Oxygen is carried by the life circulating fluids throughout the whole body. This enables the ailing body to help itself back to a purified state and a restoration of normal Oxidation. A private, proprietary process is used with alkaline earths to obtain these compounds.

The chemists who discovered these compounds found Oxygen could be bound together by electrical discharge to form Ozone or 03. Ozone is a highly active form of Oxygen that contains three parts (atoms) of Oxygen in one molecule. It is Nature's most active purifier and destroyer of bacteria, germs, parasites and worms. In it's Nascent (free, available, active) form, it is the most powerful Oxidizing agent known and available for healing purposes. Over the last 100 plus years Ozone has been found to be effective in many applications from industrial and municipal water purification to blood purification and full health optimization at home and abroad.

Ozone is evident in nature by its fresh, invigorating odors in the pine forest and at the seashore or following a thunder and lightning storm. Oxygen is contained in this Ozone form in our basic preparations, acting as laxative or anti-laxative depending on the specific preparation used. The positive action of the Nascent (free, available, active) Oxygen makes these preparations unsurpassed as natural purifiers.


OXYGEN-THERAPY IS THE BEST DETOXIFICATION


Dr. Otto Warburg, the only person in the history of medicine to win the Nobel Prize twice in medicine (nominated three times) found that any cell deprived of 50% or more of its Oxygen turned cancerous! Because, the true cause of all disease is cellular degeneration and death the end result. Keeping the body and its components, the cells, in top working order is imperative.

There is no better way of detoxifying the body and thereby the system, organs and cells of the body than through enhancing the oxidative/reductive mechanism or as Dr. Warburg said, to literally "FLOOD THE BODY WITH OXYGEN."

The most efficient Oxidizing agent known is Ozone. More than 100 years of scientific study and practical usage has brought this conclusion to the minds of many scientists, industrial experts and health care practitioners. Whenever true Nascent (free, available, active) Oxygen releasing preparations have been used properly in the treatment of disease, the results have been astonishing. However, Nascent (free, available, active) Oxygen in its gaseous form cannot be easily brought into the alimentary (digestive) tract for optimizing health; it can only do so if bound to other substances (minerals, water, etc.)


WHAT OXYGEN-THERAPY-BLASS© IS AND HOW IT WORKS FOR US


The compound, HOMOZON© – corporately called Oxygen-Therapy-Blass© – are part of a life style program originating in 1898 and encompassing more than 100 years of oxidative scientific study. The scientists involved have been illustrious and many. The therapy they founded in Germany came to the USA in 1900, was optimized in 1990 with scientific studies continuing today. The present institute is involved in the translation of vast amounts of German data being used for further optimization of these compounds and the proliferation of the "Oxygen-Therapy-Blass©" lifestyle.

HEALTH AND STRENGTH THROUGH OXYGEN


Why is OXIDATION so vital to human life? When Oxidation stops, then life stops. Its shortage causes poor health. Its abundance maintains good strong health.

GOOD HEALTH is the condition of being physically and mentally sound, a normal functioning strong body.

POOR HEALTH is poor functioning, unhealthy weak body, damaged health due to impure vital fluids and poor functioning organs.

HEALING is the elimination of the cause of poor health, the restoration and repair of damaged health.


OXYGEN-THERAPY-BLASS©

Oxygen-Therapy-Blass© is a basic plan for the restoration and maintenance of health through Oxygen. The body is invigorated by Oxygen.

OXYGEN in its most active state is a natural purifier and revitalizes and rejuvenates health. The best purifying and strongest Oxidizing agent for the body is Ozone which releases Nascent (free, available, active) or Active Oxygen. It is bound to minerals and set free in the digestive system where it easily combines with moisture, organic and inorganic substances through Oxidation. It neutralizes and removes toxins or poisons, heavy metals and harmful anaerobic bacteria to rebuild a strong healthy body. Active Oxygen Oxidizes within the digestive system, blood, organs, cells, open wounds and inflamed mucus membranes.

ACTIVE OXYGEN is safe, gentle and not habit-forming permitting normal bowel activity. It helps normal intestinal flora. Use it every day to keep the digestive system free of toxins or poisons permitting better use of essential minerals and nutrients.

ACTIVE OXYGEN works well for skin care in baths and washes to open pores, improve circulation, disinfect, deodorize, germicide and heal. It acts as a neutralizing agent and health protector. It is HARMLESS.

HEALTH is maintained when you keep the basic elements of blood in a normal healthy condition. Only then is normal Oxidation possible, the steady repair and support of the body. Oxidation maintains health and life. The lack of it causes damaged health. Without it life stops.

HEALTHY BLOOD is easy flowing, thin, real red, and is the necessary part to a strong healthy body. Such, normal vital fluids can carry enough inhaled Oxygen to maintain normal healthy Oxidation processes. Oxidation sustains strong organs and cells to do their normal function.

When foreign matters of any kind (like poisonous drugs, toxins, fermented or decayed substances) enter the blood stream and there is a lack of "Mineral Elements and Oxygen" then you change the normal composition of the vital fluids. Damaged health, subnormal body function, gradual decay or starvation of the body will result.


A HEALTHY MIND NEEDS A HEALTHY BODY . . .
ONE OF OUR MOST VALUABLE EARTHLY POSSESSIONS!


Living by the "Laws of Nature" helps prevent poor health and maintain good strong health. Prove it by providing your body with regular exercise, enough rest, pure food, pure water and fresh air with the Oxygen-Therapy-Blass© plan.

No other product today contains as much available Oxygen as the "Original Oxygen-Therapy-Blass©" (with Registered Trade Mark and Seal) product commonly known as HOMOZON©.

ORIGINAL OXYGEN-THERAPY-BLASS© PRODUCT


HOMOZON© is an Oxygen Therapy product designed for internal use. It is a compound of Oxygen and beneficial gases bonded to magnesium in which the magnesium atoms form a loose lattice onto which much Oxygen is bonded by a proprietary catalytic process and released by catalysts. The health benefitting action is derived from the presence of magnesium peroxide, magnesium super-oxide and magnesium ozonide. Homozon© provides Oxygen to the body in the form of Nascent or "singlet" Oxygen (also called the Oxygen free-radical) which does not have to be converted by the body into a form (atmospheric Oxygen . . . O2 . . . ) we normally breathe. Nascent Oxygen is Oxygen in it's most freely, available and active chemical state, and is the only state of Oxygen the body uses. It is the basic gentle Oxidizing preparation of Oxygen-Therapy-Blass©. It is a mild laxative, recommended for all ailments due to constipation or faulty assimilation, metabolism or elimination.

Directions for HOMOZON©:


Daily rations vary according to intended purpose. For internal use it is best to use small quantities at short intervals. Take about ¼ to several teaspoons as often daily as is desirable. Stir into 6-8 ounces of pure spring water or distilled water and swallow. Follow with sufficient diluted acid, preferably lemon juice (¼ to ½ lemon) in water after each dose or you may also use citric acid or betaine hydrochloride tablets. This will begin dissolving the powder setting free the beneficial gases for action releasing Oxygen inside the digestive tract producing many benefits. The purifying action continues when combined with hydrochloric acid in the digestive tract or blood. This Active Oxygen is time released in about an 8-hour period.

(Easy access to a bathroom is advised for several hours after each serving is taken.)

It cleanses the bowel, and has anti-fungal, anti-candida, anti-viral and anti-bacterial properties.

Homozon© has a wonderful laxative effect. The stool is always loose and bowel movement regular and, depending on the dosage, frequent. Some people consider the bowel-loosening action of Homozon© a problem, but is really one of its desired effects, facilitating elimination of toxicity through the bowel. However Homozon© works by Oxidizing toxins and fecal matter in the bowel and not by irritating it as with conventional laxatives


PRODUCTS ARE GUARANTEED NON-POISONOUS, NOT HABIT-FORMING, HARMLESS, USABLE BY YOUNG AND OLD, INTERNALLY AND EXTERNALLY


PLEASE PAY SPECIAL ATTENTION TO THE FOLLOWING:

The preparations are non-poisonous, not habit-forming, harmless in large doses, produce no bad after effects, usable by young and old, internally and externally.

When active Oxygen comes in contact with toxins or poisons, heavy metals, bacteria or viruses, they are neutralized by Oxidation. Therefore, you may experience one or more of the following symptoms: soft stools (not diarrhea but oxidation), opening of sinus or nasal passage and a mild tingling sensation. The stool will normalize when the system becomes free of toxins or poisons. These are healing reactions, natural cleansing processes and not harmful side effects. Above all do not give up even if you decide to decrease the dosage. Do not misinterpret the symptoms as "bad" but rather be grateful for them. It is the price for recovery of your health.


• The following is taken from an information sheet provided by the manufacturer and is not to be construed as medical advice.

What can be expected while using Homozon©?

The first effect one can expect while taking Homozon© is enhanced excretory function. Commonly noted also is an increase in overall energy. Where the increase in bowel function never completely abates, it does ease as cellular toxicity lessens and one remains on the product for some time. Effects do vary between individuals somewhat, but enhanced bowel function and increase in energy are the most noted effects.

How long will the 'loose stool' effect continue?

Homozon© does not cause diarrhea. Increased doses equals increased bowel function and improved assimilation. Effects do range from a loose stool to clear water, depending on the doses.

Remember . . . This is enhanced Oxidation / Oxygenation . . . NOT pathological diarrhea with its accompanying sluggishness, dehydration and electrolyte depletion. Homozon© increases assimilation and enhances acidophilus and friendly bacteria production; actually repairing bowel function, oxygenating the body, improving blood quality and assisting in parasite elimination.

What is the daily dose of Homozon© and how is it taken?

The dosage for an adult ranges from one quarter to several teaspoons two or more times daily at least, morning and evening.

The average maintenance dosage is a teaspoon, or more, as desired. Homozon© is mixed into pure distilled, filtered or spring water, and then drunk.

Follow immediately with ¼ to ½ of a lemon squeezed into four to six ounces of pure water.

Repeated tests on the product over the past 100 years to determine the safe and effective usage has found,
up to thirty-two teaspoons can be consumed in one day with no detrimental effects noted.

Dosage and frequency of use should be regulated by your physician or natural health care practitioner.
The product is non-toxic, harmless, beneficial, effective and healthful.

*** The reputation of real Oxidation and Oxygen therapy has been validated by Nobel Prize Winner, Dr. Otto Warburg, director of the Max Planck Institute on Cell Physiology in Germany and the ONLY person to win the Nobel Prize in Medicine twice, with a three-time nomination.

The whole purpose of Oxygen-Therapy-Blass© and Oxygen Therapies in general is to assist in fulfilling the dictates of
Dr. Otto Warburg who said to "FLOOD THE BODY WITH OXYGEN!"

The number of scientists, researchers, practitioners and patients who have received both the scientific and healing rewards of "Oxidation Oriented Therapy?" They now number in the millions with no detrimental side effects whatsoever.

*** Homozon© was first developed in 1898 in Germany, since then the formulation has been improved a number of times. Today there are many copycat oxygen products on the market. However we believe Homozon© is still the most effective product available. Oxygen content of one teaspoonful delivers about as much singlet oxygen as one 16-ounce bottle of 3% hydrogen peroxide. Another example is one teaspoon delivers about as much singlet oxygen as 750 drops of 35% hydrogen peroxide. For those who are new to oxygen therapy that is a lot of oxygen!

*** The oldest oxidation organization in the world was founded as the Institute for Oxygen Therapy in Berlin in 1898. They commissioned Dr. F.M. Eugene Blass to open the Eastern American Association for Oxygen Therapy, which continues today as the International Association for Oxygen Therapy, Priest River, ID, USA

Serrapeptase is an Inexepensive Natural Miracle Medication

I also have used this stuff with awesome results.

Imagine if you knew of someone over 60 who was cured in 3 weeks from advanced emphysema and COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder) with an inexpensive natural medicine. And what if you found out this natural enzyme was good for a variety of different health problems, even those nagging "minor" ailments of aging? This inexpensive miracle medication is called Serrapeptase. The story of the man in his 60's who recovered in 3 weeks was related during a radio interview about Serrapeptase, by Dennis Gore, a Manchester, England pharmacist who specializes in natural medicines.

A Dramatic Anecdote

According to Dennis, in 2002, this ill man was brought into the pharmacy in a wheelchair by his wife. He had to breath bottled oxygen, was on antibiotics, and had to use steroid sprays to reduce inflammation constantly. Because of all this, he was often getting other bad infections and ill side effects. The man had heard Dennis on BBC radio discussing studies done in parts of Europe on Serrapeptase's ability to remove airway and blood vessel obstructions that had accumulated over time.

So this severely ill individual asked the pharmacist for some Serrapeptase, which Dennis had on hand. The instructions Dennis gave him were to take two 20,000 IU tablets, about 5 grams, on an empty stomach four times a day, and then phase down to less as he got better.

Three weeks later, a 6 foot middle aged man walked into the pharmacy and asked Dennis Gore if he remembered him. Dennis couldn't. So the man told him he was the one that had COPD, emphysema, and was wheelchair bound just three weeks earlier. He was no longer on antibiotics, sprays, nor was he using oxygen cylinders. Two years later he was still fine and one of the pharmacist's steady customers. And he hadn't even quit smoking!

What Is Serrapeptase?

Serrapeptase is an enzyme that was originally found in silkworms. The silkworm produces this enzyme to digest the tough Mulberry leaves that live on, and more importantly that also use, it to rapidly bore through it's tough cocoon and fly away before any predator can catch it. Scientists isolated this enzyme and began creating cultures by adding a protein. From there they began successful clinical experiments and trials. And it went from that phase to broad usage. It is considered a standard medicine in Germany.

Enzymes are catalysts that enable or speed up biochemical reactions. Just like we were told in high school chemistry, the catalyst, in this case an enzyme, does not get consumed by the chemical reaction. It starts it. There are around 4000 biochemical reactions that require enzymes as catalysts. So the human body needs enzymes not only to digest foods, as many know, but also needs enzymes for cellular activity.

The particular enzyme activity of Serrapeptase is unique. Dennis Gore had studied the reports of a German doctor, Dr. Hans Napier, who had positive results with clearing blocked arteries and preventing the need for by-pass operations. In other words, it is effective and safe as an arterial chelation agent. Dr. Napier treated a woman with Serrapeptase who was scheduled to have her hand amputated. She recovered without the amputation.

Unlike many medications used to remove arterial wall plaque or inflamed lipids (fats) in the blood stream, Serrapeptase does not block the biosynthesis of cholesterol. Cholesterol in its pure form is an antioxidant necessary for all organs in the body to function properly. If it's biosynthesis is hampered, long term health issues will occur.

In addition, it is a very powerful natural anti-inflammatory agent. So any area of inflammation in the body is mollified without resorting to steroid or non steroid drug use, which almost always has side effects, and with a high price tag!

Serrapeptase Historical and Current Usage

Serrapeptase has a 25 year history of use in parts of Europe and Asia. Serrapeptase digests all non living tissue, cysts, blood clots, inflammation, and arterial blockages. It has been found to be more effective than the common medical use of EDTA Chelation for removing arterial plaque. Again, with no side effects.

It has been used successfully for the treatment of cardiovascular problems, arthritis, fibrocystic breast disease, lung problems, sinusitis problems, carpal tunnel syndrome, and even sports injuries. It is recommended as an anti-aging agent simply because much of aging has to do with the accumulation of scar tissue, inflammation, and dis-regulation.

Inflammation is part of a necessary process to protect healthy cells from harmful invaders of all types. Dis-regulation occurs when the inflammation process loses discrimination and no longer differentiates between harmful and benign substances. Then there is unnecessary inflammation leading to long term autoimmune problems.

There are many reports of aches and pains vanishing from people's lives after using Serrapeptase. This natural enzyme does not suppress the immune system in any way. There are no known side effects, not even indigestion. There are many sources available in capsule and tablet form. It's recommended that heavy dosages be taken early until a positive change occurs, then taper off to a lighter dosage.

So why is Serrapeptase not a household term even after 25 years of use in parts of Europe and Asia? It's effective, it's safe, it's inexpensive, and does not require a prescription. Since there are no side effects and it does not hamper the immune system, there would be no more drugs to sell with more doctor visits. Do you really think big pharma would be pushing something like that?

Discovered in the early 1970’s, this proteolytic enzyme was isolated from the Serratia species of bacteria located in the intestines of silkworms. Serrapeptase, also called serratiopeptidase, is truly a superior enzyme that provides strong, healthful properties. Today Serrapeptase is used all over Europe and Asia in clinical settings. It has the ability to break down non-living tissue in the body.


Serrapeptase is perhaps one of the world’s most exciting enzymes being studied in regard to its wide variety of clinical applications. Currently, especially in Europe and Asia, it is clinically used for many, many negative health conditions. One of the most well-known proponents for this enzyme was the German physician, Dr. Hans Nieper. He had great success supplementing with serrapeptase to promote normal heart and circulatory system health.

How Does Serrapeptase Work?

Serrapeptase is an immunologically active enzyme. It can bind itself to the alpha 2 macroglobulin in our plasma where it is shielded from the immune system while retaining its enzymatic activity, and in this way, it is transferred to the sites where it is needed in the body. It is this same type of powerful yet specific action that allows silkworms to eat its own protective cocoon, digest it without any side effects and fly away. Amazingly, serrapeptase has the distinct ability to digest only non-living tissue allowing the old toxic layers that clog the digestive system and the lining of our arteries to dissolve. This is one reason why it’s so good at keeping arterial deposits from building up after heart surgery.

Health Benefits of Serrapeptase
1. Atherosclerosis

Dr. Nieper found that Serrapeptase could dissolve blood clots and reduce varicose veins. Other studies from Germany have found that serrapeptase could effectively remove atherosclerotic plaque without hurting any of the healthy cells along the arterial wall.

2. Chronic Redness

Multiple studies confirm it’s resistance to Redness and it has been used for this reason in the reduction of chronic or acute conditions.

3. Helps with Traumatic Injuries

Serrapeptase is widely used in Europe as a supplement for traumatic injury (such as sprains and torn ligaments), as well as the swelling associated with post-surgical patients.

4. Pain, Edema and Swelling

Serrapeptase has been approved as a standard remedy in many European countries for swelling. A double-blind German study on the enzyme found that it could reduce swelling by up to 50% in post-operative patients. Patients taking serrapeptase experienced statistically significant less pain than the control groups and, by the 10th day of the study, all patients taking the serrapeptase were completely pain-free.

5. Helps with Cystic Breast Disease

In a double-blind study, Serrapeptase was found to reduce breast pain, breast swelling and induration in 85.7% of the patients taking the supplement. This is related to the fact that the enzyme possesses fibrinolytic, proteolytic and anti-edemic properties.

6. Helps Infections in the Ear, Nose, and Throat

In one double-blind study, patients with acute or chronic ear, nose or throat diseases found significant symptom regression with Serrapeptase. The enzyme is able to reduce the viscosity of mucous, thus facilitating drainage.

7. Helps with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Recent studies confirm the use of this enzyme for the reduction of symptoms associated with carpal tunnel syndrome.

8. Other Potential Benefits

Serrapeptase is currently being studied and used for a vast array of applications for human health and disease prevention. This includes therapeutic use for nerve damage, Multiple Sclerosis, chronic ear infections, hay fever, lung congestion, swollen glands, laryngitis, rhinitis, chronic pain, arthritis, back and neck pain, diabetes, ulcers, osteoporosis, prostate problems, rheumatoid arthritis, sports injuries (both prevention and recovery), post-operative scars and lesions, varicose veins, arterial diseases, angina, blood clots, anti-aging, restoration of healthy fibrin metabolism and reduction in C-Reactive Protein.

How to Read the Units of Measurement for Serrapeptase

Serrapeptase is measured in SUs (Serrapeptase Units). This comes from the Japanese and Korean Pharmacopeias, whereby one unit of Serrapeptase is the activity yielding a product equivalent of 1.0 μg of Tyrosine per minute at pH 9.0 and 37 degrees Celcius on a casein substrate.

Ozone Steam Sauna Cabinet

Transdermal Ozone, also known as hyperthermic ozone and transcutaneous ozone therapy. Transdermal ozone is a method in which ozone is introduced into the body via the skin while sitting in a hot steam cabinet. As the pores of the skin open as a result of being surrounded by the warm steam, ozone enters the body transdermally (i.e. via the skin). The ozone then penetrates the blood, lymph and fat. By allowing ozone in and toxins out via the sweating process that is induced, transdermal ozone therapy is one of the most powerful methods of detoxifying and oxygenating the body in existence. This method is not new: Dr. Kellogg first used ozone in steam saunas at his naturopathic clinic in Battle Creek, Michigan as far back as 1881. The German army used transdermal ozone, without the use of steam baths, for wound healing on the battlefields of World War I.

As an aside steam cabinets, steam rooms and saunas do have valuable detoxifying effects on their own. During a fever, the functioning of the immune system is stimulated, while the growth of bacteria and virus is forced to slow down. In a 1959 review of studies on the effects of heat treatments, Mayo Clinic researcher Dr.Wakim and colleagues cite findings indicating that the number of white blood cells in the blood increased by an average of 58% during artificially induced fever. The generation of antibodies speeds up, as does the production of interferon, an anti viral protein that also has powerful cancer-fighting properties. However with the addition of ozone the effects are vastly more powerful.

Transdermal ozone also has a very relaxing effect. This is partly because heat has a naturally relaxing effect and partly because ozone oxidizes (i.e. breaks down) excess adrenaline in the body, producing overall calm.

Transdermal ozone is also useful for skin complaints and improving the tone of the skin generally. Eczema and psoriasis sufferers benefit enormously from this therapy. This is backed up by extensive research summarized in these books, "The Use of Ozone in Medicine" 3rd English Edition and "Oxygen Healing Therapies".

Transdermal ozone therapy has been suggested as a good method of treating the lymph system. For both genders, putting the ozone tubing output under the armpits is a good way to reach lymph system while in the ozone sauna. For men, putting the tube output under the perineal area is also a good way to get to both lymph and the prostrate. Women have the advantage of using vaginal insufflation to reach the lymph system.

The patient sits in an ozone-resistant steam cabinet, with the head out, and the body is surrounded by warm steam. Before getting into the sauna, wrap a longer towel around your neck to seal, as good as possible, the open area around your neck. As well, assure you have a tall fan to blow away the steam that will exit the sauna. The steam causes the pores to open fully and the ozone, introduced into the cabinet by silicon tubing from the generator output, can penetrate fully into all the tissue - the blood, the lymph and the fat. Since the majority of toxins are held in the lymph and the fat, this treatment is the most effective way to eliminate them from the body. Since the skin is the largest organ of elimination, the majority of the toxins are sweated out, sparing the liver and kidneys extra work.

Hyperthermia itself is a very effective technique, many thousands of years old. It results in a "false fever" reaction, which simulates the body's own defense mechanism. With the addition of ozone, the treatment becomes doubly powerful. As the toxins are oxidized, and eliminated from the body, the fat containing them is no longer needed, and also leaves. This is backed up by the consistent accounts of weight loss associated with ozone steam sauna therapy. As well, the tendency is for the skin to become smooth, soft and free of blemishes. Symptoms of a whole host of diseases disappear as the toxins leave the system.

Employing ozone in a steam sauna after consistent treatments will likely induce, in various degrees, the "healing crisis", which can feel like having the flu temporarily. This should be seen as a sign of beneficial healing. Skin rashes are not uncommon as the toxins are pushed out through the skin rapidly. Sometimes the rash is very itchy, and this can most likely be alleviated by using colloidal silver water and taking protease enzymes in large amounts.

The more frequent the treatments, the more rapid the healing, and the more severe the healing reactions will be. I did three liver cleanses within one year and take protease and have found the healing reaction to be totally manageable. The healing reactions can also be controlled by less frequent treatments for less time, e.g., three times per week for 20-25 minutes a session. The last protocol is more for a patient interested in a maintenance regime verses the more intense treatments of between 4-5 times per week. Although the maintenance regime is not recommended for very sick patients, it is an excellent protocol for those who prefer a slower and longer healing process without the intense healing reactions. As well, after the healing reactions have subsided there is most commonly an overall feeling of optimum health.

Typical treatments are between 20-30 minutes in duration. People with heart conditions or stroke should limit the duration to between 5-15 minutes for the first few sessions, increasing to 10, 15, 20, 25 and then 30 minutes, as the body adjusts to the thermal stress.

Generally, people can take up to 100-105 degrees F for 20 - 30 minutes. However, some people can only take 95 degrees or so for 15-20 minutes. Personally, I sweat like a pig in any temperature about 94 degrees F. Over time, tolerance will increase, and both time and temperature can be increased. Always drink water after a sauna. Preferably ozonated, and preferably with added minerals/elements.

Always shower with cool water immediately after an ozone sauna treatment to aid in closing the pores which helps prevent toxins from re-entering your skin. Clean off with a wash cloth or scrathy sponge first then use soap if you so wish.

If you have the option, doing saunas after exercise/work outs is preferable in order to oxidize the lactic acid built up in the muscles. As well, in order to preserve tatoo's, it is recommended to cover them with a piece of clear plastic, taped along the edges with adhesive tape.

Flow rate of ozone into the cabinet is at 1/2 or 3/4 l/m in order to fill the large volume and overcome the loss of ozone to heat. Necessary ozone concentrations range from between 35 - 45 ug/ml. A series of treatments usually consists of 10-20 applications. If necessary (especially in cancer), a second or third, etc., series of treatments should be undertaken.

The effect of the ozone on any particular organ can be intensified by cupping with a funnel while in the ozone steam cabinet. This is especially effective with hepatitis, diverticulitis, pancreatitis and cancer. It also involves the person in actively taking responsibility for initiating the healing process. The flow rate for funneling in the sauna can be up to 1/8 lpm. Any higher may threaten the viablility of your machine with excessive pressure from back flow.

In regards to cleaning, when all body parts are covered with at least one layer of towel then the need to spray the sauna with 3% H2O2 tends to be reduced. Click here to get to a page that answers the question about how to clean the ozone sauna.

Transdermal application of ozone combined with hyperthermia in the steam cabinet is the treatment of choice for most cancers (except brain cancer, which can be treated with ozone insufflation in the ear at 1/32 l/m). Cancer cells are tightly packed as they try to force their way in between other cells, and they are thus less able to shed heat. This accounts for effect that heat stress has in killing cancer. Both heat stress and ozone kill cancer, so this treatment offers the best opportunity to eliminate cells which are fermenting sugar anerobically, halt metastasis and restore healthy aerobic function. Because of its negative charge, and the positive charge of cancer cells (due to the lack an enzyme coating) ozone is able to seek out and destroy all the cancer cells with more certainty than the surgeon's crude scalpel. In addition, ozone will oxidize the toxins which caused the original problem, and thus prevent recurrence of the problem. This is in contrast to chemotherapy which is massively immune-suppressive, and radiation which itself causes cancer.

In combination with a comprehensive diet plan, parasite, liver and colon cleanses, and suitable exercise, this program offers the best chance for the patient to recover to optimum health.

admin beat me to it.

No book was used. There is no copy right on the ozone info. On the AAS side of things 2 pages out of 1469 were used and two extra pages of credentials were posted.

But I see how it is.Takes me back to school days. Too many chiefs around here. A 28 year old massages egos, ( among other things) for over three years ( it is pathetic) and then repeats those exact same things to the less informed users coming across as a real intelligent person while questioning the validity of others.
Rich.
