Chapter 3 INTESTINAL CLEANSING, DETOXIFICATION, AND REBUILDING

Chapter 3

INTESTINAL CLEANSING,
DETOXIFICATION, AND REBUILDING



  There is an old saying that "death begins in the colon." This is an oversimplification to be sure, but more accurate than not. In fact, the road to health begins with Intestinal cleansing and detoxification—no matter what the disease or problem.

  Unfortunately, most people confine their understanding of intestinal cleansing to its effect on fecal matter. And while it is true that cleansing programs do draw old fecal matter out of the colon, limiting the discussion to fecal matter misses the big picture.

  Understand that what we have is essentially a continuous tube from the mouth to the anus, and each part of that tube has a specific function to perform. Among these are:

  Digestion of the food we eat.

 Transferring the nutritional value of that food into the body.

  Processing the waste from that food and eliminating it from the
body.

  Serving as a drain pipe for waste produced as a result of metabolic functions within the body itself.

  Serving as a drain for toxic substances absorbed through our lungs and skin, etc.

  Functioning as a first line of defense in the body's immune system by identifying and eliminating viruses and unhealthy bacteria ingested with our food.

  Any program of Intestinal Cleansing, Detoxification, and Rebuilding must address all of these aspects. Specifically, it must serve to:

  Remove all old fecal matter and waste from the colon (to clear the drain, if you will).

  Remove all the heavy metals and drug residues that have accumulated in the body as a result of having your drain plugged.

  Strengthen the colon muscle so that it works again.

  Repair any damage such as herniations and inflammations of the colon and small intestine.

  Eliminate the presence of polyps and other abnormal growths that have been allowed to flourish because of an unhealthy intestinal environment.

  Rebuild and replenish the various friendly bacteria cultures that ideally should line virtually every square inch of that tube—from mouth to anus.

The Problem

  In 1985, between 60 and 70 million Americans were affected by digestive disorders. Today it's close to 100 million. In fact, digestive disorders are responsible for over 50 million physician
visits and more hospitalizations than any other category of medical problems in the United States today. The total cost to the American public for all aspects of digestive disease is well
over $100,000,000,000.00 per year.

What Digestive Diseases?

 Constipation and the attendant symptoms of self-toxification

Diverticular disease (herniations of the colon)

Hemorrhoids

Irritable Bowel Syndrome

Ulcerative Colitis

Crohn's Disease

Colon/Rectal Cancer

Other Related Diseases

  It is worth noting that many other diseases that at first glance appear to have no connection with the digestive tract have actually been related by many doctors to functional bowel disorder.
These include: Diabetes, Gall Stones, Kidney Stones, Gout, Hypertension, Varicose Veins, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Psoriasis, and Obesity.

Parasites!

  As if that were not enough, it has been estimated that as many as 80% of all Americans are afflicted
with intestinal parasites.[1]
 Symptoms include nervousness, grinding of the teeth at night,
aches and pains that move from place to place in the body, mimicked appendicitis, ulcers and various digestive pain, nausea or diarrhea, itching, acne, foul breath, furred tongue, jaundice, fatigue, menstrual irregularities, and insomnia.

Candida

  And finally, more and more doctors are becoming aware of how endemic yeast infections such as Candida Albicans are. Symptoms include chronic fatigue (especially after eating), depression,
bloating, gas, cramps, chronic diarrhea or constipation, rectal itching, allergies, severe PMS, impotence, memory loss, severe mood swings, recurrent fungal infections (such as athlete's foot),
extreme sensitivity to chemicals (perfumes, smoke, odors, etc.), and lightheadedness or drunkenness after minimal wine, beer, or sugar.

But It's Even Worse 

  The situation is serious. Diseases of the digestive system have reached an all time high in the United States and are still on the rise. The number one cancer among men and women combined is colon/rectal cancer.

  According to the Merck Manual (the medical industry's standard text for the diagnosis and treatment of disease), the incidence of diverticulosis has increased dramatically over the last 40 years. It has gone from 10% of the adult population over the age of 45 who had this disease (according to an early 1950's edition) to an astounding, "every person has many" in the 1992 edition.
In other words, virtually 100% of all American adults will eventually have diverticulosis of the large intestine if they live long enough.

Why?

  Our modern lifestyle has taken its toll on our digestive/elimination organs. Refined, processed, low fiber foods, animal fats, a lack of exercise, and an ever increasing level of stress all contribute to our current gastro-intestinal health crisis.

[*1: Many health professionals would dispute this number, calling it far too high. And if you limit your discussion of parasites to things such as tape worms and Chinese liver flukes, they are correct. But the fact is, as soon as you open up to the true nature of the problem and begin including the lesser known, but far more prevalent, parasites such as Demodex human and Fasciolopsis buskii, the 80% figure begins to fall into line. And then if you include E. coli and Candida overgrowths (both of which fit the dictionary definition of a parasite: any organism that grows

and feeds in another while contributing nothing in return), then the 80% figure is decidedly conservative.]

  Consider that a sluggish bowel can retain pounds of old toxic and poisonous fecal matter (10-20 pounds is not unusual, and up to 65 pounds has actually been reported). Many times the real cause behind sickness and disease is this retention and reabsorption of built-up toxic waste.
  There has been a great misconception among the public and most medical professionals about
how often a normal healthy person should move their bowels. For years, doctors have thought
that anywhere between one bowel movement a day and one a week was normal. What we have
learned is that it is normal, and necessary, to have one bowel movement a day for each meal you
eat. (If you eat three meals, you should have three bowel movements the next day.)

Toxic Lymph

  Think for a moment, if you will, of your colon as your body's drain pipe—the drain that removes waste from your body. If the drain is clogged, not only will waste not be eliminated, but when you flush the toilet, the drain backs up and spills over.

  And that's exactly the point which leads us to a discussion of waste removal from the body and the lymph system.

  The lymph vessels comprise a network of capillaries which filter blood impurities; they contain a clear, colorless fluid (lymph). Lymph passes from capillaries to lymph vessels and flows through
lymph nodes that are located along the course of these vessels. Cells of the lymph nodes phagocytize, or ingest, such impurities as bacteria, old red blood cells, and toxic and cellular waste.
Lymph fluid can also collect other impurities such as heavy metals and pesticides and drug residues stored in bodily tissue. Once loaded with toxic waste, the compromised lymph must exit your body.

  What can't be eliminated in your urine must pass out through your colon. What do you think happens to all this waste if the plumbing is plugged or sluggish? Is it any wonder we get sick and keep on getting sicker?

Probiotics

We're going to be discussing probiotics in detail in the next chapter, but for now, it's worth noting their importance in maintaining not only intestinal health, but overall health. Our intestinal tract contains thousands of billions of bacteria—all microscopic in size—and yet, because of their sheer numbers, their total weight is close to 3 1/2 pounds in the average adult. Approximately 1/3
of the dry weight of our fecal matter is composed of bacteria—living and dead, harmful and beneficial. A major indicator of the state of our health, both intestinal and overall, is in the composition
of those bacteria.

What Can Be Done?

  Any program designed to clean, detoxify, and rebuild the colon needs to address several key areas. The program must:

  Help bring the colon back to life by stimulating the muscle movement of the colon.

Encourage matter to move forward through the system.


Halt putrefaction.

  Draw old fecal matter off the walls of the colon and out of any bowel pockets.

  Disinfect.

  Draw out poisons and toxins.

  Help leach out heavy metals such as mercury and lead.

  Remove chemicals and drug residues.

  Even remove radioactive material such as Strontium 90.

  Soothe and promote the healing of the mucous membrane lining of the entire digestive tract.

  Help stimulate the body to begin the healing and repair of  herniated areas.

  Increase the flow of bile to help clean the gall bladder, bile ducts,  and liver.
  
  Promote healthy intestinal flora.

  Destroy and expel parasites.

  Destroy Candida albicans overgrowth.

  Maintain regularity.

  Decrease straining.

  Speed up the transit time of feces through the large intestine.

  Promote the growth of beneficial bacteria colonies in the intestinal  tract.

  Once you look at the requirements of a good intestinal program,  it's easy to see that no one formula or magic pill can accomplish it  all.

  Summary

  The foundation of any health or healing program must begin with the intestinal tract—not necessarily because it is inherently more important than any other system or organ in the body, but because it's the area of the body upon which we focus our greatest abuse, and because it impacts  virtually every other system in the body. This point is so important that it's worth reviewing the
core issues that we've covered in this chapter.

  1. The colon is the main elimination channel of the body. It is the  means by which we eliminate the toxic waste of the digestive 
 process, including massive amounts of E. coli bacteria and parasite  larvae. If that waste hangs around longer than necessary, its impact  on the body is profound. And yet, because of dietary and health  habits, the average American stores, on average, between
 10-20 pounds of old (sometimes decades old) fecal matter in  their  colons. I personally know of people who, while on a colon  cleansing program, have passed the coins they had swallowed, or  the multi-colored waxes  of the crayons they had eaten when they  were children, over 50 years ago.

  2. The liver is the main detoxifying organ of the body. It filters out  dangerous drug residues and poisons from the blood and passes  them out of the body—through the colon via the bile duct. Plug the  colon and it's like flushing a toilet plugged with toilet paper;  everything backs up. The net result is sickness and disease. The  important point to remember here is that you can't even begin to  cleanse and repair the other systems in the body until you clean
 out the colon so that the toxic material will have a clean path out of  the body.

  3. Physically, the colon is not designed to store large amounts of  old fecal matter. There just isn't room for it. If you have 10, 20, 30  pounds of extra garbage in there, there's only one thing that can  happen; the colon must distend and expand.
 This causes the walls of the colon to thin out (like blowing up a  balloon more and more). As the walls extend out, they press on  and compress other organs in the abdominal cavity.

  4. Old fecal matter is an ideal breeding ground for harmful  bacteria and dangerous parasites.

  5. Intestinal flora are an essential part of health. If you eat foods  laced with antibiotics and drink water with chlorine in it, you  eliminate virtually all beneficial bacteria—providing an absolutely  open environment for the proliferation of harmful bacteria, such as  E. coli.

  6. Your intestinal tract is the source of all nutrient access to your  body. If it isn't working properly, you have two major problems.

  >First, you have a hard time digesting food properly—breaking it  down sufficiently so that your body can use it.

  >And then, even if you can digest it properly, if the intestinal wall  is covered with hardened waste and colonies of hostile bacteria/  flora, you'll end up absorbing only a fraction of the nutritional  value of the food you eat.

  The bottom line is that any program we design to improve our  health or to eliminate disease from our bodies must begin with  Intestinal Cleansing, Detoxification, and Rebuilding.
 It is the "sine qua non"[1*] of health.

  General Recommendations

 What is required is a four-pronged approach. 

  A probiotic formula to promote the growth of beneficial bacteria    colonies in the intestinal tract.

  A good source of fiber to compensate for all of the fiberless  processed foods, meat, and dairy that we eat.

 [1*:  Literally, "Without which, there is not."]

   The best single source of fiber in the world is ground organic          flaxseed meal. One and a half tablespoons in the morning and  evening with juice will keep you regular and also provide you with  the best single source of Omega-3 oils in the world. In addition,  the sulfur-rich proteins present in the seeds work hand in hand with  the Omega-3 oils to literally reverse mutated cells and cancer in  the body.

  For some people, a good probiotic formula alone will serve to wake up their colon and get it working again. Most people, however will need a stimulating herbal colonactivator formula that provides both cleansing and healing to the entire gastrointestinal
system (at least until their colons rebuild).

  Look for a formula that contains all organic herbs such as: Cape  Aloe, Senna, Cascara Sagrada, Barberry Rootbark, Ginger Root, African Bird Pepper, and Fennel.

  This formula will serve as an intestinal detoxifier to loosen and draw out old fecal matter, waste, and toxins. It will stimulate peristalsis (the muscular movement of the colon). It will also halt putrefaction, disinfect, and soothe and heal the mucous membrane lining of your entire digestive tract. It will also help improve digestion, relieve gas and cramps, increase the flow of bile (which in turn cleans the gall bladder, bile ducts, and liver), destroy Candida albicans overgrowth, and promote a healthy intestinal flora, destroy and expel intestinal parasites, and increase
gastrointestinal circulation.

  Periodically (approximately every 3 months), you will need a strong purifier and intestinal vacuum to help draw old fecal matter off the walls of your colon and out of any bowel pockets and to also draw out poisons, toxins, heavy metals (such as mercury and lead), and even remove radioactive material such as Strontium 90 from your body. Such a formula will also remove over 2,000 known drug residues.

Look for a formula that contains all organic herbs such as: Apple Fruit Pectin, pharmaceutical grade Montmorillonite Clay, Slippery Elm Inner Bark, Marshmallow Root, Fennel Seed, Activated Willow Charcoal, and psyllium seeds and husks.

  The natural mucilaginous properties of this formula will soften old hardened fecal matter for easy removal and also make it an excellent remedy for any inflammation or irritation in the stomach and intestines. This formula is helpful in irritable bowel syndrome, diverticular disease, and hemorrhoids.

  And on top of everything else, this formula will eliminate the effects of food poisoning or stomach flu in 20-40 minutes!

  Regular use of this four-part program will help keep your  body in optimal health and vitality for as long as you live. 

Melamine?

What is that? Melamine found in baby formula milk powder had caused many babies died (2 reported, so far)and many more sickened with kidney stone problem in China. Why kidneys problem?

The reason it is used is because the law require that the certain protein level must be met prior the product can be approved to be market to the public. All because we have thought our body and babies bodies need protein to build more protein for ourselves to grow healthily and normally, but the fact is we need raw amino acids from produce to make protein in the body, not animal-protein or milk-protein, or plant-protein.

Easy is to judge the mistake of others,
Difficult is to recognize our own mistakes.

Melamine mixed into the milk powder formula will make the milk appear to be high in protein. The suppliers' fault (?), or the health authorities ignorance (?) about natural human nutrition balance in natural food? Melamine is nitrogen-rich, and standard tests (?) for protein in bulk food ingredients measure levels of nitrogen. To know the chemical of individual chemical is one thing, while to understand the chemistry reaction of mixed chemicals is another thing.

Formaldehyde : CH2O, also known as oxymethylene and more correctly called methanal.

Formaldehyde is a gas with a pungent odour which condenses at -19 degree Celsius when it rapidly polymerizes by reacting with itself.

It is generally available as formalin, a 37% solution in water with up to 15% methanol added to prevent polymerization. This is used as a preservative for biological and medical specimens, and as an embalming fluid.

Formaldehyde is produced industrially on a large scale and used to make urea-formaldehyde resin (a.k.a plastic) (e.g. melamine), dyes and drugs.

It is also used to decaffeinated the coffee product . Some people think caffeine is harmful for their human body, so they choose decaffeinated coffee instead. They are just standing between the devil and the deep blue sea.. Neither is benefiting their health, and when the chronic effects strike, it will be too late to cry over split(spilled) milk or to scream blue murder.

Why kidney stones? Because the waste and toxic produced is faster than the small babies liver can handle on daily basis, and these waste overspill to organs downstream such as gallbladder, kidneys will form detoxified-waste and crystallized. The water ratio to the milk powder is not as mother breast milk and hence dehydration can easily set in and cause the body to kick in the dehydration management mode, which many parents and doctors are still wondering about, until it is too late.

The Water Cure Recipe 1-2-3
1.Drink 1/2 your body weight of water in ounces, daily. Example : 180 lb = 90 oz of water daily. Divide that into 8 or 10 oz glasses and that's how many glasses of water you will need to drink , daily.

2.Use 1/4 teaspoon (1.5 gram) of sea salt for ever quart of water you drink. [1 quart =32oz; 1liter =35.2 oz] Use sea salt liberally with food. As long as you drink the water, you can use the salt .As long as your daily diet has salt, it will help your body to retain and balance the free water in your body.

3.Avoid caffeinated or alcoholic drinks. These are diuretics and will dehydrate the body. Every 6 oz caffeine or alcohol requires an additional 10 to 12 oz of water to re-hydrate your body cells. All fluid are no water, but Water (H2O)alone is water. Juices and other beverages cannot be counted in your daily need for water. There is no substitute for water , as far as the body cells (thousands and millions of them) are concern.

God is good and righteous, all the time.

Freely I have learn , freely I share with you. Feel free to share with those affected by body de-hydration symptoms as you journey on this life .

Use Water-cure. Rather be thankful for the timely warning, and do something about it.

Drink at least 10% of your own daily water-quota (31.42 ml multiply by your present body weight(kg), every 90 minutes. Use 1/4 teaspoon of sea-salt in your daily diet, for every 1250 ml water drank.

Pain is a sign/signal produced by dehydration in the human body. Pain may be common but it is not normal.

To simplify complications is the FIRST essential of success.

Preparation for The Liver and Gallbladder Cleanse

The Liver Cleanse requires 6 days of preparation, followed by 16 to 20 hours of actual cleansing. To remove gallstones you need the following items:

1* six 1-liter(32 oz.) containers of apple juice
2* 4 tablespoons of Epsom salts dissolved in three 8-oz. glasses of water
3* 1/2 cup (4 oz.) of cold-pressed, virgin olive oil
4*2/3 glass of fresh grapefruit juice (pink is best), or fresh lemon and orange combined
5* 2 pints jars, one with a lid

Preparation
Drink 32 oz. of packaged apple juice per day for a period of six(6) days: You may drink more than that if it feels comfortable to do so. The malic acid in the apple juice softens the gallstones and makes their passage through the bile ducts smooth and easy. The apple juice has a strong cleansing effect. Some sensitive people may experience bloating and, occasionally, diarrhea during the first few days. Much of the diarrhea is actually stagnant bile, released by the liver and gallbladder (indicated by a brownish-yellow colour). The fermenting effect of the juice helps widen the bile ducts. If this becomes somewhat uncomfortable, you can dilute the apple juice with any amount of water, or use other options. Cranberry juice also contains malic acid and can be used instead of apple juice. Malic acid in apple juice is exceptionally effective at dissolving some of the stagnant bile and making the stones softer. People who seldom/never eat an apple a day, and other varieties of fresh fruits in their diets tend to develop more stones later in their lives.

Drink the apple juice slowly, swishing it in your mouth before swallowing, throughout the day, between meals time. Avoid drinking the juice during, just before, and in the first two(2)hours after meals, and in the evening. This is in addition to your normal water intake of six to eight glasses.

Note: Preferably, use organic apple juice, although for the purpose of the cleanse, any good brand of commercial apple juice, apple concentrate, or apple cider works just as well. It may be useful to rinse your mouth out with baking soda and/or brush your teeth several times per day to prevent the acid from damaging your teeth. If you have gums bleeding, chew a fresh carrot after every meal.

Dietary recommendations: During the entire week of preparation and cleansing, avoid foods or beverages that are cold or chilled; they chill the liver and, thereby, reduce the effectiveness of the cleanse. Physiological reasoning is simple, the body organs function best at the normal body temperature.

Changes in the body fluid temperature. Generally, any temperature rise decreases the viscosity and density of liquids.
The healthy adult body will keep its internal temperature constant at between 97.6 to 98.8 degrees Fahrenheit (36.4 to 37.1 deg-Celsius). Our human hydro-lic systems and organs work best within this optimal range of normal body temperatures. The hypo-thalamus, located at the bottom part of the human brain, controls our body temperature. So, it is the normal temperature of the food and water we ingested which the body will use to regulate the internal body temperature, not the ice-cream,
cold drinks or warm soups which determine our body temperature.

To help the liver prepare for the main part of the cleanse, try to avoid foods from animal sources, dairy products, and fried food items. Otherwise, eat normal meals, but avoid overeating.

The best times for cleansing: The main and final part of the liver cleanse is best done over a weekend, when you are not under any pressure and have enough time to rest. Although the human liver cleanse is effective at any time of the month, it should preferably coincide with a day between full moon and new moon. Try to avoid doing the actual cleanse on full moon day ( the body tends to hold more fluids in the brain and tissues on this day than on others, due to the lunar influences on the human body). The day of new moon is the most conducive for cleansing and healing.

If you are on medication or take any medication: While on the liver cleanse regimen, avoid taking any medication, vitamins, or supplements that are not absolutely necessary. It is important not to give the liver any extra work that could interfere with its cleansing efforts. In fact, it is the prolonged doses of drugs that overload the liver, which in due time develop the stones.

Make sure that you cleanse your colon before and after you do a liver cleanse: Having regular bowel movements is not necessarily an indication that your bowel is unobstructed. Colon cleansing, done either a few days before or, ideally, on the sixth(6th)day of preparation, helps to avoid or minimize any discomfort or nausea that may arise during the actual liver cleanse. It prevents back-flushing of the oil mixture or waste products from the intestinal tract into the stomach. It also assists the body in swiftly eliminating the gallstones. Colonic irrigation (colon hydrotherapy) is the fastest and easiest method to prepare the colon for the liver cleanse. Colema-board irrigation is the second most preferably method.

What you need to do on the sixth(6th) day of drinking apple juice:
Drink all the 32 ozs. of apple juice in the morning. You may start drinking the juice soon after awakening. If you feel hungry in the morning, eat a light breakfast, such as a hot cereal, oatmeal would be an ideal choice. Avoid sugar or other sweeteners, spices, milk, butter, oils, yogurt, cheese, ham, eggs, nuts, pastries, cold cereals, and the like. Fruit or fruit juices are fine. For lunch eat plain cooked or steamed vegetables with white rice (preferably basmati rice) and flavor it with a little unrefined sea salt or rock salt.
To repeat, do not eat any protein foods, butter, or oil, or you might feel ill during the actual cleanse. Do not eat or drink anything (except water) after 1:30 p.m., otherwise you may have difficulties passing stones ! Follow the exact schedule.

What Can i Expect from

the Liver and Gallbladder Cleanse?

Disease is not part of the body's design. Symptoms of disease merely indicate that the body is trying to prevent serious harm or even a life-threatening situation from occurring / recurring. We become sick when our body immune/defense system is suppressed and overburdened with accumulated toxic waste. Suppressed via drug prescriptions and overburdened via denatured & devitalized diets.

The response of the body to this type of extreme congestion is to clear the toxins in a number of different, and usually unpleasant, ways. The human body's methods of self-defense and cleansing often require pain, fever, infection, inflammation, and ulceration. In more serious cases, cancer and a buildup of plaque inside the arterial walls help avert the ill person's imminent demise.

Most types of internal "suffocation" are preceded or accompanied by a blockage of the liver bile ducts. When the liver-organ, which is the main factory and detoxification center of the human body, becomes congested with gallstones, disease is a likely outcome.

FORMULA PROPORTIONS for...

GALL BLADDER TROUBLE and GALLSTONES:

We can try one of these formula proportions(FP) and see the results for ourselves. It is always best to have a doctor who has had personal experience with raw vegetable juices to check your present condition and consult him/her in regard to it.

(1 LITRE = 1.76 PINTS = 0.22 UK GALLON. 1 pint = 16 ounces (oz).)

FP1. Carrot,10 oz. plus(+) Beet,3 oz. + Cucumber,3 oz. = 16 oz.
OR
FP2. Carrot,11 oz. + Spinach,6 oz. = 16 oz.
OR
FP3. Carrot,9 oz. + Celery,5 oz. + Parsley,2 oz. = 16 oz.
OR
FP4. Carrot,11 oz. + Beet,3 oz. + Coconut,2 oz. = 16 oz.
OR
FP5. Lemon,16 oz. in a glass of hot water.

NOTE for These Formulas : It is essential to bear in mind that satisfactory results from the use of these combinations have been obtained with juices made with the Electric Triturator (Pulverizer) and Hydraulic Press. You have to search the Internet for any shop that sell this kind of machine in your own area. I am not promoting any brand here, sorry. Seek and you will find. Such equipment has been found to extract the Vitamins, Minerals and other Vital Elements from vegetables and fruits and to retain the live Enzymes more completely than by any other method. When any other type of juice extractor was used, it was found necessary to considerably increase the indicated quantity.

Any juice, so long as it is fresh and raw, is better than no raw juice at all.

Our fundamental object and goal in life to stay robustly healthy should be to gain vast and abundant knowledge, and learn to apply it intelligently.

We can teach Wisdom, but we cannot make one learn Wisdom. Real wisdom only come when we experience the reality FOR OURSELVES, FIRST HAND.

GALL BLADDER TROUBLE and GALLSTONES . How they come about? Cooked fats and fried foods (trans-fat) are the most common cause of a disorganized gall bladder functions.

Biliousness: The result of incomplete digestion of fats and excessive fermentation in the body system, causing improper secretion and flow of bile from the liver. Alcoholic liquors taken with meals, including beer, degenerating the liver, have the tendency to chronically disorganize the digestive functions. Fried and fatty food are the most frequent cause of biliousnes. Alcoholic and caffeine drinks prematurely "force" the food to leave the stomach before it is properly digested. Sipping water with meals will help better digestion. The best is to drink one glass of water, half an hour (30 minutes) prior to the mealtime.

Gallstones and gravel, however, are the accumulation of inorganic calcium and other inorganic matter collecting in the gall bladder due to the inability of the system to assimilate them. All starch, white-bread and refined-grain products, especially from refined flour, are full of such inorganic calcium. Recall the children in Africa with "bloated" abdomens who were fed with refined flour from the WHO agencies. It is not just malnutrition, but also organic-elements-deficiency. In affluence societies, we find obese children,instead. Eating plenty of these may tend to furnish a plentiful crop of gallstones and gravel. The present Balance-Food-Pyramid which is adopted by many countries for public education, was a wrong formula for public health, as far as body system assimilation is concerned.

The juice of a lemon in a glass of hot water, without sweetening taken several times a day for 3 or 4 weeks has helped to dissolve these stones, when the other juices indicated herein were used daily over the same period of time.

Nature never intended that man's gall bladder be removed by an operation/surgery. The human gall bladder is ESSENTIAL to the proper functioning of the liver. Our body is our own, however, and if we are, through ignorance or worse if through 'intellectual arrogance,' of its functioning, ready and willing to submit it to the practicing of surgery, there is no one we can blame but ourselves.
