Preventing Disease Naturally
By Michio Kushi

Self-reflection involves using our higher consciousness to observe, review, examine, and judge our thoughts and behavior as well as contemplate the larger order of nature or what we might call the Law Of Spirit. The more we reflect upon ourselves and the eternal order of change, the more refined and universal our awareness becomes. We begin to remember our origin, foresee our destiny, and understand what we came to accomplish upon this earth. As our consciousness develops, our life manifests the spirit of endless giving just as the universe itself expands infinitely. Our motto becomes, “One grain, ten thousand grains.” For each seed planted in the soil, the earth returns many thousand seeds. By endlessly distributing our knowledge and insight, our understanding deepens and we become one with the eternal order of creation and Spirit.

Self-reflection may take many forms, including a short period each day in quiet meditation or prayer. Questions we might ask and areas we might seek guidance include the following:

1. Did I eat today in harmony with my environment?

2. Did I think of my parents, relatives, teachers, and elders with love and respect?

3. Did I happily greet everyone today and express an interest in their life?

4. Did I contemplate the sky, the trees, and the flowers and marvel at he wonders of nature?

5. Did I thank every one and appreciate everything I experienced today?

6. Did I perform my tasks faithfully and thereby contribute to a more peaceful world?



Lymphatic Drainage Massage Sessions

What is it?
Gentle, soothing massage meant to stimulate the flow of Lymph fluid in the body. Used for cellular detoxification and to revitalize internal organ function.

What is Lymph?
A clear viscous fluid which flows throughout the body’s tissues, bringing in nutrients and taking out waste. Lymph carried the immune response, i.e. white blood cells, T cells, lymphocytes, etc. Whenever the body is “attacked” the defense mechanism sends extra fluid with extra fortifications to the attack site.

What are the benefits?

The extra fluid that has remained after the attack is fended off robs the area of proper oxygen and nutrition. Fluid retention is called edema and creates a bloated feeling and one of congestion. Lymphatic drainage enhances the body’s ability to process the fluids, clean up and fortify and blood supply, and drain off waste products such as lactic acid.

What conditions are helped?
All respiratory conditions such as bronchitis, asthma, pneumonia, influenza, as well as digestive disorders, constipation, general toxemia, PMS allergic reaction, bruising and inflamed tissue respond very well.

Post surgery patients can greatly benefit because of the added stress on the immune system during surgery. Normal peristalsis has been interrupted and needs to be re-established, as well as normal respiration. Drugs and anti-biotics strain the liver, gall bladder, kidney and spleen functions, and lymphatic drainage can stimulate these to bring them back into balance.

What results can I expect?
Breathing is eased, swelling and fluid retention are reduced – esp around breast and neck, peristalsis and digestion are balanced, nutrition is more easily absorbed. Headaches and sluggishness are reduced, bringing proper blood flow to all organs for clearer thinking and quicker immune response.

How long does it take?
Each session lasts 55 minutes and covers several techniques, including client education. You are encouraged to participate in your recovery and are given guidelines for best long term results. The recommended program is to have 3 sessions within the first month. For Maintenance Detoxification Programs it is best to continue on a twice monthly program.

How will it effect my colonic?
It has been found to greatly enhance the effects of colonics, due to the stimulation of waste product removal. Abdominal massage softens and prepares the bowels to receive the colonic and eases possible discomfort. As the colon is cleansed, the other internal organs have a clearer path for ridding the body of accumulated toxins. Many people prefer to have their colonic first and then finish with their Lymphatic Clearing Massage.

Lymphatic Massage and Clearing sessions are available from Jessica Zaccaro in our Santa Monica Office.  The benefits of  lymphatic massage are greatly increased when combined with a colon hydrotherapy before or after the massage.



by Eileen Silva Metabolic,Weight Control Specialist

This might surprise you . . .The average person who is neither over weight nor noticeably allergic to things, can be carrying around 7 to 25 pounds of dried fecal matter in their system!

And overweight or allergic people may be harboring a lot more than that!

The toxins from this accumulated waste matter are responsible for many body imbalances which may create common weight and health problems.

As a matter of fact, one of the most frequent complaints that women have about their figures is a Potbelly… a classic sign of Colon Toxicity! And very simple to correct with an improved health regimen.

A distended abdomen indicates the presence of a more serious colon problem… a Fecal Ball which can gather more and more layers of waste, the longer it remains.

“Virtually all weight challenges can be traced to imbalances in the colon/digestive tract, as either a primary contributor or a secondary problem which accentuates slowdowns in other critical body systems like the endocrine (glandular) system and the circulatory system.”

A round robin, domino effect is then set into motion. A toxic colon contributes to a toxic circulatory system. Soon the body is simply not able to metabolize food and fat properly… which is critical to provide energy for vitality in living.

A toxic colon… with its walls lined with mucus derived from undigested and uneliminated food substances, together with toxic residuals from medicines, preservatives, water and even the air you breathe… could be the reason you feel tired and weak most of the time!

Recently a 54-year-old woman in Atlanta, Georgia discovered during a professional colon irrigation, that her body still had a residue of barium which she was only given once when she was 7 years old… 47 years earlier!

Layers of old fecal and toxic waste can block proper digestion, nutrient absorption and waste elimination. This unhealthy state of the colon inevitably provides an excellent breeding ground for toxic poisons and parasites.

Some symptoms of parasites can include restless sleeping, fatigue, poor assimilation and absorption of nutrients, food cravings (especially for sugars and breads), as well as an inability to feel satisfied after a large meal.

“Regularity” in bowel habits really means a bowel movement after every meal… something which is almost non-existent to the McDonald’s™ fast-food generation. And to those who suffer frequent diarrhea…

Diarrhea is just as strong an indicator of colon toxicity as is constipation!

If you or anyone in your family have any of the symptoms described in this alert, you should seriously consider starting an intestinal cleansing regimen. An all natural intestinal cleanse not only helps remove accumulated mucous and hardened waste matter from your body, but also helps reverse the toxic cycle in the colon.

Using an intestinal cleansing regimen so simple… And with cleansing herbs and fibers, it is the most cost effective, comprehensive, colon intestinal cleanse available in today’s market. It’s all natural, safe, and easy to use too!

Please don’t ignore the warning signs of a serious body imbalance. Give yourself a fresh new life of fitness and vitality today. And remember . . . Your life depends on maintaining proper colon health!



Coffee Enemas – Directions

Based upon Dr. Gerson’s work. More information is available in his book, “A Cancer Therapy – Results of Fifty Cases”

Coffee Enemas help remove toxins from the liver. They often provide quick relief when fatigued, sleepy, having headaches, and when just feeling bad. They also help against spasms, pericardial (heart, throat, chest) pain and difficulties resulting from the sudden withdrawal of all intoxicating sedation.

A coffee enema, when done properly, causes the liver to produce more bile, opens the bile ducts, and causes the bile to flow. In this process, a toxic liver can dump many of its toxicants into the bile and get rid of them in just a few minutes. This can give great relief to all parts of the body, and often makes the difference between lying down and being active.

At the start of the treatment and during “flare-ups”, the bile contains poisons, produces spasms in the duodenum and small intestines, and causes some overflow into the stomach, with a resultant feeling of nausea or even vomiting of bile. In these cases, great amounts of peppermint tea are necessary to wash out bile from the stomach. Afterwards, patients feel much better. So, if this happens, drink peppermint tea.

Drinking a cup of coffee has an entirely different effect and should not be used. Drinking coffee causes the following problems: increases reflex response, lowers blood pressure, increases heart rate, causes insomnia and heart palpitation, over stimulates adrenals, irritates the stomach, and leaves a toxic residue in the body. A coffee enema when done properly will not produce these effects.

WARNING: Great care should be used when water fasting. Coffee enemas cause bile to be excreted from the liver. and the bile contains many valuable mineral salts. To lose these salts without replenishing them could be very harmful. People using many coffee enemas a day must be on a good diet of broths and fresh juices that assures the replenishing of mineral salts. When doing intestinal cleansing, one or two coffee enemas should be fine if, before the cleanse, the person passed the PH tests. Otherwise, that person should drink fresh juices, especially carrot, beet, and celery juice. Taking Best Whey will also help in replenishing the bile salts lost through coffee enemas.

With serious cases of cancer, it may be necessary to have coffee enemas every four hours, night and day, and in more serious cases, every hour.

Preparing the Coffee Enema: Take 3 Tablespoons ORGANIC Ground coffee to 1 quart water. Let it boil for 3 minutes and then simmer for 20 minutes. Strain and use at body temperature. The daily amount can be prepared at one time.

The body should be lying down on right side, with both legs drawn close to the abdomen. Breathe deeply in order to suck the greatest amount of fluid into the necessary parts of the colon. It also helps to let all the air out of the lungs and suck the gut in and out while in this position. THIS IS A RETENTION ENEMA. Please retain for 10-15 minutes. Dr. Gerson found that all the caffeine is absorbed from the fluid within 10 to 12 minutes. It goes through the hemorroidal veins directly into the portal veins and into the liver.

Peppermint Tea Preparation: Add one tablespoon of dried peppermint leaves to 2 cups (one pint) of boiling water. Let it lightly simmer for 5 minutes and strain.

Your trained Transformational Health colon hydrotherapist can also add a coffee implant to your colonic sessions if requested in advance.



TOXIC CHEMICALS COMMON IN BODY
TESTS REVEAL SCORES OF SUBSTANCES IN STUDY VOLUNTEERS

By Robert Hager
TBC NEWS

Jan. 30 – When scientists sampled Andrea Martin’s blood and urine to see what toxins she’d picked up from the world around her, she got a surprise. “I had 95 chemical contaminants in my little body. And it was very mind blowing,” said Martin. The test results indicate that we all pick up tiny amounts of an astounding number of chemicals that are known to be dangerous in larger doses.

MARTIN and eight others were tested by Mt. Sinai School of Medicine in New York and an advocacy organization called the Environmental Working Group. On average, the nine participants had traces of 53 chemicals known to cause cancer in human or animal tests. In addition, they had an average of 62 chemicals toxic to the brain or nervous system, plus 55 associated with birth defects. The scientists did not find any single substance in amounts the government describes as unhealthy, but said the sheer number of chemicals was unnerving, especially given the uncertainty about the health effects of trace amounts.

Biomonitoring our bodies
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have embraced “biomonitoring.” The technology allows researchers to measure chemicals directly in blood and urine rather than having to rely on exposure estimates based on air, water or soil samples. Click on a category for recent biomonitoring breakthroughs.

Breast cancer
CDC and Danish researchers found that the risk of breast cancer significantly increased with increasing levels of dieldrin, a pesticide, in women’s blood. This result suggests that exposure to dieldrin and other “organochlorine” compounds may increase the risk of breast cancer.

Children & pesticide

Methyl parathion, a pesticide that should never be used indoors, has been found inside thousands of homes in at least seven states and led to the deaths of two children in Mississippi. In response, the CDC’s Environmental Health Lab developed a method to measure methyl parathion in urine and did so in more than 15,000 people. The results helped identify who needed treatment and who needed to be moved out of their homes until the homes could be cleaned.

Drinking water
Trihalomethanes, chemicals that evaporate easily into the air, are thought to be linked to birth defects, bladder cancer, and colorectal cancer. Formed during the water sanitation process, they are often found in drinking water. The CDC’s lab developed a way to measure trihalomethanes in blood, and it’s being used in studies to find out how much enters people’s bodies and whether the chemicals are causing illness.

Cigarette smoke

The CDC’s lab developed ways to measure cotinine — a chemical formed by the breakdown of cigarette nicotine in the body — in saliva, blood, and urine. These methods are being used to find out: how much secondhand smoke is getting into children, adolescents and adults; what levels of chemicals in tobacco smoke cause health problems; how well actions to protect people from secondhand smoke are working; and how well actions to help smokers stop smoking are working.

Source: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
“(This is) irrefutable proof that humans carry in their bodies scores of industrial contaminants, most of which didn’t exist 75 years ago,” said Jane Houlihan, co-author of the study. Scientists have found chemicals called pthalates, which are known to cause birth defects in animals, in many personal care items like makeup, hair spray, soap and also plastic food wrap. Other chemicals found in the participants’ bodies target the nervous system, including:

  • Acetone in nail polish
  • Synthetic fragrances in perfume and soap
  • Poisons in weed killers and bug sprays
  • Perchloral ethyline in dry cleaners
  • Zylene in paint, which can also cause organ damage

Some chemical manufacturers called the study nothing but hype. “I think it was an attempt to be more alarmist than necessary, and sort of over-inflate the message and the facts,” said Jay Vroom of Croplife America. But for those intent on avoiding even traces of toxic chemicals, the study’s authors suggest eating organic produce, minimizing fatty foods since chemicals concentrate in body fat, minimizing the use of beauty products, avoiding stain removers and avoiding seafood known to be high in mercury. These precautions may be more hassle than many care to deal with, but the scientists in charge of the study say it is amazing how many potentially toxic chemicals get in our bodies.

How do you know which substances to avoid? Toxic chemicals with particularly powerful effects include heavy metals, organic solvents and pesticides. Endocrine-disrupting chemicals such as dioxin, PCBs and phthalates — substances that leach out of plastic packaging and wraps — may also be harmful to your health.



The origins of butter go back thousands of years to when our ancestors first started domesticating animals. In fact, the first written reference to butter was found on a 4500- year old limestone tablet illustrating how butter was made.1

In India, ghee (clarified butter) has been used as a staple food, and as a symbol of purity, worthy of offering to the gods in religious ceremonies for more than 3000 years.2

The Bible has references to butter as the product of milk from the cow, and of Abraham setting butter and milk from a calf before three angels who appeared to him on the plains of Mamre.3

For millennia, people around the globe have prized butter for its health benefits.

So how did butter become a villain in the quest for good health?

At the turn of our century, heart disease in America was rare. By 1960, it was our number one killer. Yet during the same time period, butter consumption had decreased – from eighteen pounds per person per year, to four.4

A researcher named Ancel Keys was the first to propose that saturated fat and cholesterol in the diet were to blame for coronary heart disease (CAD).

Numerous subsequent studies costing hundreds of millions of dollars, have failed to conclusively back up this claim.5

Yet the notion that a healthy diet is one with minimal fat, particularly saturated fat, has persisted. While Americans drastically reduced their intake of natural animal fats like butter and meat, the processed food industry, particularly the low-fat food industry, proliferated.

When the baby boomers were children, concerned mothers began to replace butter with margarine. The margarine manufacturers told them it was the healthier alternative and mothers believed them. In those days no one asked, “where is the science to prove it? I want to know before I give this man-made, plastized stuff to my children. After all we humans have been eating butter for thousands of years?”.

As a result, since the early 1970’s, Americans’ average saturated fat intake has dropped considerably, while rates of obesity, diabetes, and consequently, heart disease, have surged.

Reducing healthy sources of dietary fat has contributed to a serious decline in our well-being, and those of us that speak out against the anti-fat establishment are still largely ignored .

Is Margarine Better than Butter?

No! This is a tragic myth. Butter is a completely natural food essential to your health – especially when you eat organic. Also, please make the extra effort to obtain high-quality organic, raw butter.

Margarines, on the other hand, are a processed food, created chemically from refined polyunsaturated oils. The process used to make these normally liquid oils into spread-able form is called hydrogenation.

Margarine and similar hydrogenated or processed polyunsaturated oils are potentially more detrimental to your health than any saturated fat.7 For more information on why you should avoid all processed oils read Why the Processing of Consumable Oils Has Devastated America’s Health.

Include Real Butter as part of Your Body Ecology Lifestyle

As many of you already know, I am a strong proponent of including a variety of healthy oils and fats into your diet. Together they work as a team to supply your body with essential fatty acids for longevity, hormone balance, heart health, sharp vision, glowing moist skin and energy. The wonderful variety of oils and fats certainly includes organic, preferably raw butter. Cultured raw butter is even better.

And why would I be so insistent that you eat butter? Take a look at the long list of the benefits you receive when you include it in your diet:8

  1. Butter is rich in the most easily absorbable form of Vitamin A necessary for thyroid and adrenal health.
  2. Contains lauric acid, important in treating fungal infections and candida.
  3. Contains lecithin, essential for cholesterol metabolism.
  4. Contains anti-oxidants that protect against free radical damage.
  5. Has anti-oxidants that protect against weakening arteries.
  6. Is a great source of Vitamins E and K.
  7. Is a very rich source of the vital mineral selenium.
  8. Saturated fats in butter have strong anti-tumor and anti-cancer properties.
  9. Butter contains conjugated linoleic acid, which is a potent anti-cancer agent, muscle builder, and immunity booster
  10. Vitamin D found in butter is essential to absorption of calcium.
  11. Protects against tooth decay.
  12. Is your only source of an anti-stiffness factor, which protects against calcification of the joints.
  13. Anti-stiffness factor in butter also prevents hardening of the arteries, cataracts, and calcification of the pineal gland.
  14. Is a source of Activator X, which helps your body absorb minerals.
  15. Is a source of iodine in highly absorbable form.
  16. May promote fertility in women.9
  17. Is a source of quick energy, and is not stored in our bodies adipose tissue.
  18. Cholesterol found in butterfat is essential to children’s brain and nervous system development.
  19. Contains Arachidonic Acid (AA) which plays a role in brain function and is a vital component of cell membranes.
  20. Protects against gastrointestinal infections in the very young or the elderly.

Raw, Organic Butter is the Best

Believe me this is only a partial list. If a woman is pregnant, hopes to become pregnant or is nursing her baby, I think it should even become a law for her to eat butter for her baby’s developing brain, bones and teeth.

The best butter you can eat is raw, organic butter because pasteurization destroys nutrients. Unfortunately, the sale of raw butter is prohibited in most of our 50 states.

You can, however, make your own healthy butter, and it is easier than you think. Look into our Body Ecology Culture Starter, which you simply add to organic cream. After letting this mixture sit at room temperature for 24 hours, chill it, beat it with a whisk, and voila! You’ll have healthy, probiotic butter that is delicious!

Cultured butter is full of health sustaining good bacteria like lactobacillus planterum, and lactococcus lactis. These microflora are essential for a healthy inner ecosystem.

Sources of Healthy Butter

If you don’t want to culture your own butter, I recommend butter from grass-fed animals only. A good source is U.S. Wellness Meats.

I also recommend Activator X and Vitamin rich butter oil, made by Green Pastures.

Heart Healthy-the Body Ecology Way

Completely eliminating butter and other healthy animal source fats is NOT the Body Ecology way. It is not how our ancestors thrived, and not what nature intended.

How much should you eat each day? Like sea salt, your own body will tell you how much to eat. If you crave it, eat it, your body needs it. If the quality is excellent you can feel confident it will be good for you and you’ll soon see the benefits yourself. If you are following the Body Ecology Food Combining Principle and eating as we recommend (adding at least one source of fermented food or drink to your diet) you will see your body reach its idea weight. The raw butter will help you develop beautiful muscles.

The Body Ecology program is gaining recognition for being a premier way of healing candida and other immune dysfunctions. And what’s more, it’s a heart-healthy, super-slimming, anti-aging way of life, which is crucial to your health as a whole.

INTRODUCTION

If an angel came and gave a formula that would cure almost any disease, it would be against the law to claim its effectiveness. But explaining in simple, scientific terms how we destroy our own bodies and minds and how we may reverse that destruction, leaving out all claims, will hopefully not offend the A.M.A, or F.D.A, will it? Fortunately, we live in a country that guarantees freedom of speech. Anyone is welcome to use a system of healing that has been proven to work, but they won’t profit much monetarily. The health profession makes money on sick people, not well people. If we were to make everyone well with a system that works, we certainly wouldn’t perpetuate our incomes. After all, there would be little use for this book, the “Clean-Me-Out Program” or even the entire health care system. How sincerely do we want to heal?

Evidence clearly states: no matter what the disease, as long as a person has the right mental attitude – in this case, a strong desire to be healthy and the willingness to do whatever is necessary to be cured – he will bring into his world that which he desires; he WILL find health. If only health professionals would espouse this truth, the door would open to making (or letting) it happen. Too often people lose hope because they continue to be treated by those whose healing successes are rare.

FOUR STEPS IN OVERCOMING DISEASE
The first step in overcoming disease is to put a stop to its cause. This always begins with the rearranging of the thoughts and feelings. For the decomposition of the body (or dying) begins with “suicidal” thoughts and feelings – ie feelings of hate, anger, criticism, condemnation, judgment, blame, self-pity, jealousy, resentment and depression. Good health requires not only the control of the emotions, but good thoughts and good feelings. Love, peace, harmony, poise, gratitude and praise expand the life and light in the body, building energy, vitality and happiness.

The second step toward perfect health of the body is to stop eating any foods that do not contain enzymes, life force and nutrients since lifeless “foods” cause mucus toxins and congestion – especially congestion of the intestinal tract. This substance is known as “hardened mucoid fecal matter” and is the cause of over 90% of all disease (with the exception of injuries).

The third step toward overcoming disease is to remove congestion anywhere and everywhere from the body. Some health professionals choose to address the local area of obvious trouble alone. But, as Dr. Bernard Jensen likes to say, “if you step on a cat’s tail, it’s the other end that yells!” There is no single part of the body that is not affected by the whole. So, all congestion and toxins must be removed and it must begin with the removal of the hardened mucoid fecal matter.

The forth step toward lasting health is to then supply the body with the needed elements. But you cannot successfully complete this step until the third step is done, or well on its way.

NATURE’S OWN REMEDY – A LOGICAL PROCESS
Isn’t this sensible? This logical process is Nature’s own remedy, yet it is in large part neglected by health professionals. This explains uncountable failures, for even when there is success in curing on ailment, it is rarely more than a brief time befofe the patient develops another ailment. This is because the symptom alone was treated, not the cause.

One prominent cancer researcher, Dr. Hardin Jones said, “My studies have proved conclusively that untreated cancer victims actually live up to four times longer than treated individuals…Beyond a shadow of a doubt, radical surgery on cancer patients does more harm than good.” Dr. Jones said he advocates less surgery and chemotherapy. According to Edward Griffin, author of World Without Cancer (a fantastic book that I urge you to read), excluding skin cancer, the average cure rate of cancer by medical doctors is 17%. Would you take your car to a mechanic if he claimed a mere 17% cure rate of transmissions? I would suggest it is time to consider other methods.

The medical world claims no cure for cancer and, what’s more, no one else can either. It’s against the law – even for those who know the cure. Therefore, I hereby announce that I do not claim the “Clean-Me-Out Program will cure cancer. Should you find your cancer disappearing when you use this system, I will not accept responsibility. You’ll have to take the credit yourself.

The cure of cancer or any other disease has been known for decades among health experts who understand disease and its cause. But, it is also unlawful for those experts to treat cancer unless they are M.D.’s What a crime against the American people! To think that there are those who can cure cancer who are not legally permitted to do it!!!

I had better be careful here. I had better not say that all cancers can be cured. No disease is curable if it’s gone too far or if the patient’s attitude will not permit healing. But based on the patients I’ve known of who have conquered cancer, heart disease, diabetes and leukemia, based on the numerous books I’ve read and health professionals I’ve talked to, the following is undeniably true: America must look to other healing methods if it wants to return to the healthy nation it once was. There are some shocking governmental statistics to support this statement.

THE FACTS
The U.S. Public Health Service revealed the rate of health deterioration of the American people. Out of 100 participating nations of the world, America was the healthiest in 1900. In 1920, we dropped to the second healthiest nation. During World War II, we went back to number one-that’s when sugar and meat were hard to get and family vegetable gardens were common. In 1978, we dropped to 79th. In 1980, we were 95th ! (I recently heard from a friend in the business of enlightened healing that we have now hit rock bottom-that’s number 100 on the list) Yet we are said to be the wealthiest nation in the world. Who, or What is responsible?

A DEPARTURE FROM NATURE
Since 1900, the basic sensible theories of health care have changed dramatically. The major change was the shift from Nature, or natural healing methods, to drugs. In addition to this shift in health care came the increasing use of preservatives and chemicals taken into our bodies through food, polluted air and synthetic fabrics. This unnatural approach to life has had its detrimental effect on the American people.

In my opinion, as long as our approach to healing (except in rare cases) involves the use of drugs, chemicals, radiation and scapels, we will never be successful. If we sincerely want to bring the American people back to health, or if we personally wish to reclaim our own perfect health, we muct return to God and follow His ways – Nature’s ways – by using herbs and other natural methods that purify and strengthen the body.

Can Cleansing Really Change Your Life?

I started colon cleansing with a very popular program that claims “no cleansing reactions”. After a month of feeling sluggish and rather depressed and not noticing a single positive result, I dropped it like a hot potato. I began researching and using other seven-day herbal colon cleansing programs and got what I thought were great results – an average of 13 feet of hard, mucoid fecal substance came out of me that I can assure you wasn’t just your average fecal excretions! Then Bernard Jensen convinced me to try pancreatin, which resulted in the elimination of 28 feet in seven days. However, pancreatin is an animal product, and I was determined to find something as effective without putting dead animal vibration in my body.

The next summer, I scheduled a research and experimenting expedition with an old friend of mine – White Medicine Crow – the most unusual herbalist I’ve ever known and as wild (maybe wilder) in the mountains as I am. We were to live off the land, eating fresh herbs only, live in the open air, take cold baths and study the human body. We started in Arizona. That was rough. Then the Mount Lassen area in California. That was heavenly. Then the Redwoods, the ocean, and it was about then that we began eliminating the famous “hardened mucoid fecal substance”. And all without doing any so-called cleansing! This substance was coming not only from the colon, but from all areas of the intestines – even the duodenum. But which herbs were doing this? We had eaten so many! By the time we finished our research in the north Cascades, we knew which herbs produced the desired effect and put together a formula which has never been equaled. We tried it on ourselves. First time – 40 feet of mucoid fecal elimination in six days for me and 28 feet for White Crow on his first cleanse ever. Talk about feeling good after that – Wow!
