Apple Juice Fast-All Natural Remedy for Gall Stones and Kidney Stones

This remedy works equally well on kidney stones and gall stones.  It DISSOLVES the stones! My mother, father in law, and husband as well as numerous friends have used this remedy and have all achieved success!!

My aunt, who has had a colostomy, went on this fast twice and eliminated the majority of her kidney stones.  She had a ton of them!

  • 2 quarts of apple juice concentrate (from a health food store ONLY) OR  juice fresh apples and drink the juice (3 gallons or so, this is what I do)

  • Dilute enough with distilled water to make 3 gallons.  In other words, 5 parts water, 1 part concentrate.

  • Drink 12 large glasses/day.

  • Alternate apple juice and distilled water every half hour. So, drink one glass of apple juice and a half hour later drink a glass of distilled water, etc. If you’re consistent with drinking every half hour, it should curb your hunger.

  • Toward the end of the third day, drink 4 oz extra virgin olive oil. And finish the day drinking apple juice.

  • Eat NOTHING else during the three days.

If the refrigerator overpowers you, you may have one apple at the end of each day.

Be close to the bathroom during this process.

If you get a terrible headache, give yourself an enema…yes, I said enema. It will take the pain away immediately by eliminating the toxins out of your colon which is the cause of disease in the first place.

There are two types of gallstones you will observe when they pass at the end of the third day:

1.  It will look like ground brick when you eliminate.

-or-

2. It will be a rubbery-jelly like substance

People who have problems with Gall Bladder and Stones usually eat large amounts of meats and fatty foods. It is strongly recommended to eat a whole food natural diet, which is eating animal products sparingly (10% or less of your diet), including dairy, meats, and all animal by-products.

Avoid foods such as alcohol, cocoa, coffee, carbinated beverages, canned and pasteurized juices, artificial drinks, sugar juices/drinks, white flour products, all refined or processed foods, all fried and deep-fried vegetables including all types of potato chips.



Yeast, Fruit, Honey, Mushrooms

A dear friend of mine asked this question:

I finished the pH Miracle, and their explanation of the yeasts, molds, etc. that grow when pH is too acidic makes total sense and is consistent with everything else we’ve read.  But there are some inconsistencies that contradict the other three books that confuse me as to what/who to believe.

For example, they say you should not have sugar in any form, including fruit (except sparingly) and the others recommend 4-12 pieces of fruit a day.  The Youngs also say that you should never have mushrooms in any form because they are a fungus, but the other books highly recommend them.

Then, they say that stored grains and legumes have mold and fungus in them from storage, but I thought we stored low moisture wheat and fumigated it so that it wouldn’t get moldy, and I thought it lasted for 50 years or so and was good for you.
Taking stored grains and legumes/beans out of the diet would totally eliminate the use of all we’ve stored.  Hmmm.  Where do you come out on all of these things?

This was my response;

I hear you about the many contradictions from one health guru to the other.  I am amazed at how many opinions are out there.  The way I sort them out is to take Section 89 in the D&C as my standard and any other scriptural proofs and then see why some of them contradict it.
As far as not having sugar in any form, including fruit, I believe that is when your body is full of yeast and any form of sugar can exacerbate the growing of the yeast in the body.

Once the yeast is taken care of, I believe the use of natural sugar especially fruits in varying amounts is great.  The key, in my opinion, to contradictions  many times is if your body is in an extremely toxic condition or not.

I agree with J.H Tilden,”Toxemia Explained”, that All disease is caused by toxicity. (In movies you can just feel when someone is going to burst into song whilst in a musical, when I get excited about a health subject you will begin to see the warning signs of a pontification coming up:)

The key is to cleanse the body so the body can uptake the nutrients to heal itself.  Detoxification is very difficult to do the greater the disease condition.  In Dr. Gerson’s book, “A Cancer Therapy”  he discusses how he uses coffee enema’s to cleanse the liver and help restore the digestive system through detoxification.  Ann Wigmore uses wheat grass implants in the rectum and uses wheat juice fasts as well.

Dr. Christopher uses juice fasts to detoxify the system and depending on how toxic you are, he suggests cleansing the colon through colonics, etc.  In one of his booklets titled,”The Incureables” he discusses how to go from one type of juice to another every 6 weeks in exclusion of all other foods and has you take sun baths and rub oils into the body for nutrition. Lots of other people use other methods, those 3 are the ones that come to mind.

Back to your subject of getting rid of yeast, it is a very simple thing to do unconventially.  Your father had me get the book, “Your own perfect medicine” by Martha Christy which teaches you how to get rid of it inexpensively, very quickly(a couple of days),easily and painlessly. I use her method. (I went to a health food store within the last week and was told about a product that cost $55 for 30 days and that it would eventually rid the body of it.  WoW!  That could be quite expensive, her husband had been on it for 3 months and she said he did fine as long as he was on it )
One of the ways a woman can tell if she has yeast is if she has a yellow discharge.

My opinion on grains is that the chemistry changes when we ferment or sprout grains and legumes or cook them.  I believe the scriptures when the Lord says that grains are, “the staff of life”

Webster’s 1828 dictionary says:

1. A stick carried in the hand for support or defense by a person walking; hence, a support; that which props or upholds. Bread is the proverbially called the staff of life.

I think if you store grain in a condition other than the whole grain or legume (flour,cracked, etc.)you will lose nutrition and perhaps will degenerate it into something that would impede good health.

Whole foods that God created in nature ARE for the use of man .  The Youngs claim mushrooms aren’t good for you. My friend down in Salt Lake uses, “mushrooms complete” and claims it gets her over illnesses.

They also claim that vinegar in any form is to be avoided. (I have read Paul Braggs book on,”Apple Cider Vinegar”  and have used it my whole life and have had miraculous healings associated with balancing my P.H. Vinegar is naturally fermented apple peels.

I had a neighbor tell me that honey wasn’t good for you because it was pre-digested.  I responded that was the reason that I believe it is good for you. I have a book entitled, “Honey” that I’ve read that shows the difference in the carbon chain from sugar, even though the chain is arranged differently.

The difference makes it good for you rather than bad for you. Your body can uptake it easier and assimilate it and it is also filled with antibiotics and nutrition.  She is a good friend and a Protestant so I added, “Besides, one of the promises we receive from God of abundance is a land flowing with milk and honey”  (must be used in the raw form with existing enzymes, uncooked) ” Evidently God didn’t get the memo that these things are bad for you.”

She laughed.  Science is almost always proven flawed, yet our scriptures will always be proven true in the end.



Help for Sick Babies

Every mother goes through experiences in which she is not sure what is wrong with her sick baby. The list below will help you to know the most common reasons why babies are sick as well as what I have done for my kids.

ENEMA

1.   An enema can take a fever down immediately. If your baby is sick, it means that your baby is full of toxic waste. Each time your baby is sick, it is because they are backed up. An enema will speed up recovery and relieve your baby in no time!

An enema with warm water with a bulb syringe is always a good idea for babies. Or you can use an enema bag but only put a quarter of the bag for the baby.  Babies may be laid on a towel in the tub and very slowly allow the water to enter.  The baby will expel when it needs to.  The solution is never forced in all at once but only the amount that is comfortable.

Put Vaseline on the tube going into the baby’s bottom to be able to insert easier.  The enema could have a little Kyolic (brand name of liquid garlic used in Japan as an antibiotic, it’s in most health food stores and even in some grocery stores. A little catnip tea  (1 T. made into a tea by boiling water, pouring over the tea, let steep about 20 min.) will also help pull out toxins.

You would inject the water into the baby’s bottom, massage the colon from the outside of the tummy. About 1 pint of water.  Repeat 3 times. (each time more water will go in) Use tepid water in the first two bags and the tea and garlic in the third bag.  ( For babies: 1 small fresh garlic bud blended into 1 pint of water may also be used)

Note:  The garlic/catnip enema would be equal parts of the garlic solution and catnip solution.  It should: fight infection,;pulls mucus; kills germs, bacteria, virus and parasites, and increases peristalic action of the colon.

CONTROL FEVER

2.   If the baby has a fever you would want to treat it like “fire in the house”. Fever is burning up poisons in the body, so it’s good if it doesn’t get too high.  You need to put water on it, so to speak.  An enema is one of the fastest ways to bring down a fever and rid the body of congestion.  Water absorption through the skin (bath) but make sure it’s in a warm room and don’t let the baby get chilled. Put a humidifier in a small  room with the baby so it will fill the room easier.

Also, essential oil of lemon is put topically down a baby’s spine takes the fever down as well.  I used it on a neighbor’s baby when she brought it over and the baby’s fever went down within about a minute.

Oil of Garlic

3.  Put this on the bottom of the feet and then put the baby’s sock on. (You can use a garlic pill with oil in it and poke it with a pin and squeeze in onto the foot.

Vitamins from Mom

4.  Nursing Mother can take the Infection Fighting Combination and vitamins and the baby will get them through the milk.

Breathe Easier

5.  Essential oils can be put in the humidifier to help the baby breathe better.  Put 2-3 drops of Tea Tree Oil, I like the Melaleuka brand best.  (T-36 is a very potent type but any tea tree oil will work)

Ear Infection

6.  Ear Infection Usually if the baby has a lot of congestion the possibility of an ear infection is possible.  Treat both ears.

Formula:

  • 3 drops essential oil of garlic (if you don’t have the essential oil just use regular oil of garlic)

  • 3 drops essential oil of oregano

  • 3 drops tea tree oil

  • 100 drops of olive oil

Drop 2-3 warmed drops into each ear and put cotton in the ear. (warming it just feels better.  Put the bottle with herbs in it in some hot tap water for a few minutes.

Jaundice

7.  If a baby has JAUNDICE prick a 100 IU of vitamin E and squirt it in the baby’s mouth.  Just one capsule could be enough for jaundice symptoms to disappear.  Sometimes you may need one more capsule after 12 hours.

Mom’s Diet

8.   Make sure the mother’s diet is good.  No mucus forming foods.  Have her eat lots of fresh fruit and vegetables and their juices, nuts, grains and seeds.  Dairy and meat and refined foods and foods with excess salt and sugar produce excess mucus in the system.

Herbs work in conjunction with prayer…

One time my 5th child, a son,  got very ill.  I used every herb and detoxifying idea I had learned and my child was still not getting better.  I prayed and asked what I should do.  The thought came to me that prayer should be FIRST and the Spirit would bless me and lead me through what to do for the illness.  Sure enough, that seemed to be the most important thing to do.  My child started improving right after the recognition of this information.  Miraculous!



Infection Fighting Formula

My four year old daughter, Brin, was incredibly sick. We had tried everything. This formula knocked out her terrible illness in only two days! This was my first experience with this formula and I have sworn by it ever since.

Friends and neighbors would get strep throat and use allopathic medicine. It would take them much longer to get over their illness and often their illnesses would come right back. We have enjoyed much quicker recoveries with this formula and no return illnesses.

Believe it or not, over-the-counter drugs can drive toxins deeper into your tissues! Truly, while it may cover your symptoms in the short term, drugs can compromise the immune system of the body in the long term.

Allopathic antibiotics kill friendly bacteria. Whereas herbs kill the bad bacteria and leave the friendly bacteria intact. Herbs also cleanse and feed the organs.

Probably the most valuable formula that we use in our home is the:

Infection fighting formula:

Equal parts:

* Golden seal
* Echinacea Augustifola
* Myrrh
* Cayenne (optional – not best for people with gall bladder problems or no gall bladder at all)
* Poke Root -1/12th formula (be very cautious in the use of this, if too much is taken, can be poisonous)

Combine all herbs together and then encapsulate in “00″ size gelatin capsules- for adults 2 capsules, 3-4 times a day with meals.

*take 1,000 mg of vitamin C every 2-3 hours and one capsule of garlic with the herb combination above. Add calcium and B complex after second day. Cleanse colon with herbal laxatives, enemas and/or colonic. Two capsules of cayenne would do it.

Basic instructions for illness:

We use these amounts for adults (using “0″ gelatin capsules): 4 capsules, 3-4 times a day. Ages 12-18, 3 capsules 3-4 times a day. Ages 6-12, 2 capsules 3-4 times/day. Tiny capsules that our 4 year old could swallow were taken 2 at a time, 3-4 times a day.

We leave out the cayenne for our 2 children that have Down Syndrome and feed them 1/2 teaspoonful of the formula in 2 Tablespoons of applesauce 4 times a day.

Make sure and eat only mild food during the illness.  Only drink fruit and vegetable juices. (**no store bought juices) You would have to juice the fruit and vegetables yourself or make vegetable soup, etc.

Don’t have dairy or meat or any refined foods (products with white sugar or white flour or salt) while you are sick.  These foods produce mucus and burden the body with extra work in digesting and slow down the body from healing itself.

About the formula:  Dr. John Heinerman says that Goldenseal, Echinacea, and Myrrh kill infection anywhere in the body.  This is a valuable formula that we have used for over 20 years in our home and have shared with family and friends that have experienced the same success.Why the formula works:

Echinacea Augustifolia

* Dramatically increases the production of white killer cells in the body to help eliminate infectious diseases of all kinds
* Is amongst the most powerful and effective remedies against bacterial AND viral infections.  There are no side effects even when one takes a high intake of Echinacea
* Treats strep throat and lymph glands
* expels toxins and poisons from the body
* has antibiotic, anti-viral, and anti-inflammatory properties

Golden Seal

* Through its antibacterial and anti-biotic properties strengthens the immune system
* Increases the capacity of heart and respiratory function because of its ability to clean mucous membranes and counter infection.

Myrrh

* Promotes increased white corpuscles (up to four times) to fight infection
* Used with other herbs as a natural antibiotic.
* Cleans and heals stomach and colon.  Improves waste elimination.

Poke Root

* Is an antibiotic, used in herbal antibiotic combinations.
* Helps break down mucus in intestines, sinus, and throughout the whole body.
* Has persistent, flushing, cleansing action on the body which helps to expel waste and toxins.  Tones the entire system.
* Powerful blood cleanser.  Especially good in cleansing swollen infected glands

Cayenne

* Found in many combinations with other herbs in that it is a catalyst.
* Builds up the body’s resistance.  High in Vitamin C, good to take at the beginning of a cold.
* One of the best general stimulants.  Stimulation is the key to healing.  When the body and its organs are properly stimulated, they will heal, cleanse and begin to function normally.  If taken regularly it will reach every part of the body.

Garlic

* It’s called nature’s antibiotic.  It contains allicin, a natural antibiotic.  1 milligram of Allicin has a potency of 15 standard units of Penicillin.
* It’s effective against toxic bacteria viruses, and fungus
* Active against staph and E. coli bacteria
* Good to take for all diseases (anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-viral, anti-cancer) including contagious diseases.
* Has detoxifying effect on all the body systems

Vitamin C

* 1000 mg. of Vitamin C taken every hour at the first sign of a cold or illness has been very effective for some people.  This amount I continued until the symptoms leave.  If Vitamin C is taken in mega doses for more than 3 or 4 days, it can act as a chelating agent and flush our Vitamin B and Calcium from the body.  Taking extra B complex and Calcium when you use these higher doses of C prevents this.

**Special Note: Usually when people are sick, they have a lot of congestion. Two capsules of elecampane can be used as an expectorant. It is used in chest congestion and excessive catarrhal (mucus) expectoration.

There Is Just One Disease – And You Have It. Toxemia.
February 11, 2009, 9:18 pm
Filed under: Toxemia | Tags: ,

Toxemia: Poisoning either as a result of undue retention of body waste or of the end products of metabolism or digestion, creating an overacid condition.

J.H. Tilden, MD has written a book, Toxemia Explained wherein he states,”According to the Toxin Philosophy, every so-called disease is a crisis of Toxemia; which means that toxin has accumulated in the blood above the toleration point, and the crisis, the so-called disease-call it cold, “flu,” pneumonia, headache, or typhoid fever-is a vicarious elimination.

Nature is endeavoring to rid the body of toxin. Any treatment [drug] that obstructs this effort at elimination baffles nature in her effort at self-curing.”

“The chain of symptoms range from cold or catarrh to Bright’s disease, tuberculosis, cancer, syphillis, ataxia, and other so-called diseases; all, from beginning to end, symptoms of the cumulative effects of crises of Toxemia.”

Max Gerson, M.D. in his book, A Cancer Therapy,(now called, The Gerson Therapy) states that the specialization of research and medical practice may be an outgrowth of the microbe theory of disease. Some call it the “germ theory”.  The idea is a germ comes around, you catch it and then you become ill.  The converse is that your body becomes toxic and your organs are damaged to one degree or another and the whole illness is a manifestation of the condition of your body.

Dr. Gerson goes on to explain,” cancer is not specific.  It is a degenerative condition of the total metabolism, including damage to the liver and all essential organs, which then makes it possible for cancer to develop.  Similar damage also precedes other chronic diseases.”

“All degenerative diseases, such as mental diseases, arthritis, hardening of the arteries, heart (coronary) diseases…. all show liver damage.”  He points out that “the beginning of all chronic disease is the loss of Potassium (K) from the cells and invasion of Sodium (Na) into the cells-and with it water. “

This causes edema and the resulting malfunctions-loss of electrical potentials in the cells, improper enzyme formation, reduced cell oxidation, etc.  ……..The building of almost all enzymes requires K(potassium) as a catalyst (activating agent) and is inhibited (slowed or stopped) by Na(sodium).  The extent of these malfunctions then determines how and to what extent the system is affected and where the symptoms will occur.”

“In order to initiate healing , it is essential to remove excess Na from the cells, re-introduce large amounts of K, and detoxify the system of accumulated intermediary substances and other toxins.  This is best accomplished by large amounts of K from fresh fruit and juices, detoxification through the kidneys and by enemas, and reactivation of the liver by special liver therapy. “

If this were only a theoretical assumption, it would not be worth mentioning.  However in Dr. Gerson’s many years of experience with all types of chronic disease, this process worked in practice. Degenerative diseases could be reversed, eliminated , and the body healed.


C. Samuel West, D.N., N.C. , in his book, “The Golden Seven Plus One” explains that all the tissues and organs of the body are made up of cells.  In order to have any type of disease of any kind we have to damage the cells.  He points out that every cell generates “an electrical field”.

It is an actual “electrical generator.”  The thought wave is electrical.  The energy coming from the eyes is electrical.  In essence, the human body is an electrical being, and our health, strength and endurance depend upon the energy currents that run through the body.

To keep the “electric generators” going, Dr West says, (1) the cells must have oxygen to convert glucose into energy, and (2) the potassium (K+) inside the cells must remain high and sodium (Na+) inside the cells must remain low.

If too much water gets on a crop, it will damage or kill the crop.  The same thing hold true with the cells.  Anything that will produce excess fluid and excess sodium around the cells will cause them to “drown” from lack of oxygen and will upset the delicate sodium-potassium balance in and around the cells.”

To have healthy cells we need a “dry” state where there is no excess fluid around the cells, only enough fluid to fill the crevices around the cells, and that is all.

Even under normal conditions, the normal pressure in the blood stream causes the blood proteins to continually seep through the pores of the blood capillaries into the spaces around the cells.

There is not enough pressure in these spaces to push the blood proteins back through the tiny pores of the blood capillaries. Therefore, the lymph system must continually remove blood proteins and return them to the blood steam.

If the lymph system completely fails to function and the blood proteins get trapped throughout the body, they will produce the conditions that cause deathwithin twenty-four hours. and trapped blood proteins can cause death in just a few hours.

He goes on to say how we can learn to untrap blood proteins by keeping them cirulating in the body via the lymhatic system by”Lymphasizing” and by eating correctly and thinking correctly so we won’t trap blood proteins in the first place.

He is a huge advocate of using a well constructed MINI-TRAMPOLINE. (I notice a huge difference using mine.) He says we must learn the techniques of the physical, mental and nutritional laws that are necessary to keep the blood proteins circulating.

A medical doctor is trained in a pharmaseutical college that teaches him how to treat symptoms of an illness.  A wholeistic health practicianer is trained to look at  the cause of illness;

Toxemia- And you have it.
