 to address these
questions and many others. Eating Make-Believe Food Versus Eating Real Food
Until I educated myself, I used to think that what I purchased at the supermarket
was real food. What a surprise to find little or no real food in a supermarket. Imagine the public outcry if someone had announced to us that they were going to
drastically lower the nutritional content of our food. Yet, this is exactly what has
happened. Where is the outcry? We are all eating nutritionally deprived, toxic,
make-believe foods that have been proven incapable of supporting healthy life in
either animals or humans. Throughout this book we have looked at the history of the human diet and
environment and how dramatically these have changed, especially in the last
century. Our cells are designed with specific nutritional needs that are no longer
satisfied by typical modern diets and lifestyles. To achieve optimal health, we must
acquire daily all the nutrients for which we have genetic requirements. Scientist
Linus Pauling, a Nobel laureate, wrote that modern diets are incapable of supplying
optimal nutrient quantities, even if we make good food choices. According to
eminent scientist Emanuel Cheraskin, M.D., D.M.D., up to 80 percent of the U.S.
population suffers from malnutrition. Most of us now suffer from “affluent
malnutrition,” caused by an expensive diet rich in calories (from sugar and white
flour) and poor in nutrients. Because the food supply is unhealthful, and has been for
several generations, we are now seeing entire populations where no real perspective
of “health” exists. Disease has become the norm, so we view ourselves as healthy. Entire populations are now suffering from diseases that are unquestionably related
to nutritional deficiency, yet we do not label them as such. This is because we
seldom encounter obvious deficiency diseases such as scurvy, pellagra or beriberi,
so malnutrition is not perceived as a major contributor to disease— but it is! Deficiency in modern diets creates a host of problems including: diminished
overall competence and resistance to infection, premature aging, colds and flu, acne,tooth decay, mental illness, heart disease, cancer, osteoporosis, kidney disease, lung
disease, autoimmune disease, anemia, diabetes, allergies, birth defects, alcoholism,
learning disabilities, violent behavior and more. Although these problems carry
different disease labels, they are all the result of sick cells. Which body parts get
sick does not matter, because the way to prevent disease or restore health is always
the same. Give your cells what they need, protect them from what they don’t need. Nearly all supermarket fruits and vegetables have been grown in depleted soils
and are deficient in nutrients and high in toxic contaminants. These substandard
foods are often harvested before ripening so they can be shipped and stored without
spoilage. Foods are often chemically enhanced to increase shelf life. A huge part of
our diet has been processed and packaged, removing what little nutrition ever
existed. Does anyone really think that a donut made of white flour and sugar and soaked in
rancid oils is real food? Real food is organic, fresh, raw, unprocessed and mainly
plant-based. White flour, sugar, milk, ice cream and coffee are not real foods, nor
are conventionally grown and prematurely harvested tomatoes, oranges and bananas,
not to mention old, waxed apples and cucumbers. To prevent disease or to restore
health, we must stop eating the make-believe and go back to what our healthy
ancestors ate: real food. Germs Versus the True Cause of Disease
The popular misconception is that microorganisms (germs) cause infections. But
to be a true cause, the microorganisms would have to produce the same effect all the
time, which is not the case. Not everyone who is exposed to a particular organism
gets sick, and not everyone who gets sick does so to the same degree. In truth,
whether or not someone develops an infection depends on the balance between
several factors, namely the virulence of the organisms, the number of organisms
and, most importantly, their state of immunity. We live in a sea of microorganisms,
but they do not make us sick until we alter the natural balance between them and us. Our normal coexistence with germs rather than a germ-free environment ensures our
health. When we eat sugar and nutrient-deficient diets, expose ourselves to toxins, lose
sleep, fail to exercise and fail to adapt to stress, our immunity becomes depressed
and we open the door to infection. Then we blame the germ, when really we are to
blame. Rather than being obsessed with germs and rushing for flu shots and
antibacterial soaps, optimizing our immunity would be a far better approach. The
perspective that germs cause disease is so ingrained in us, many have difficulty
making the shift to the new way of thinking; but to avoid infection, we must do
exactly that. People such as the Hunzas lived into their hundreds without ever having
as much as a cold, not because they took flu shots but because they were healthy andtheir immune systems were strong. In truth, only sick people get sick. The problem
is we spend decades making ourselves sick, all the while thinking we are healthy. Toxic Versus Nontoxic Living
Imagine what would happen if someone announced that they were planning to
poison our food, our homes, our workplaces or, for that matter, the entire planet? We
would be outraged. Yet that has happened and few are outraged. We are constantly
told that small amounts of toxins are safe. Yet chronic disease is rampant because
these small amounts of toxins, when added together, are disabling our detoxification
systems, exceeding our capacity to detoxify them, and bioac-cumulating in our
tissues to disease-causing levels. Some toxins, such as estrogenic chemicals from pesticides, plastic bottles and
canned foods, are not safe even in amounts so small they cannot be measured by the
usual techniques. Every day we eat food, breathe air and use products containing
these and other harmful toxins. Some exposure is virtually unavoidable, but most
exposure is a choice. We have to start making different everyday choices about what
we put on and in our bodies and what we expose ourselves to in the workplace. What
we eat, wear and bring into our homes—and the personal care products that we use
—are under our direct control. We need to change our perspective that small
amounts of toxins are safe; we need to recognize that small amounts of toxins can
build up in our bodies over time. Most Americans are now accumulating hundreds of
man-made chemicals in their bodies, and yet we wonder why we get sick. An Active Life Versus Sedentary Sickness
Human genes evolved at a time when a high level of physical activity was the
norm. All through the course of evolution, man had to be physically active in order
to survive. Our hunter-gatherer ancestors were nomadic peoples who were always on
the move, always foraging for food or drink. Because of the way we evolved, the
human body actually requires a high level of physical activity in order to function
normally. Until fairly recently this activity requirement was met by leading a normal
lifestyle and producing life’s necessities. From prehistoric times up until the last
century, people spent the vast majority of their physical energy—hard, daily labor—
just trying to produce food, shelter and clothing. Today we are the most sedentary
people in history. To achieve health, we must change our perspective that we can be
both sedentary and healthy. Fortunately, for all you couch potatoes out there, a
simple way is available to address this problem: rebounding. See appendix C for
more information. The Future Is NowAfter bringing myself back from the brink of death and restoring my health, and
after more than sixteen years of study and experimentation, I have concluded that
the only way our society will stop its slide into declining health is to change our
beliefs about health and disease. The next major advance in health care will be
driven by those people who accept personal responsibility for their health, educate
themselves and make choices that move their personal health equations away from
disease and toward health. When a large number of people look at something in the same way, we call that
system of belief a paradigm. Paradigms become accepted wisdom, and we interpret
our lives and make our decisions according to that conventional thinking. I ask you
to reconsider accepted wisdom and conventional thinking about health, disease and
medicine. Reconsider whether the beliefs that guide your life are effective in solving
your problems. Reconsider whether the decisions you make about your health—from
foods to drugs to doctors—bring you health and happiness. Reconsider whether you
are missing out on tremendous opportunities to be well and to live a longer, more
vigorous life than you ever imagined. Today, most of us, and almost all of our physicians, are living in a cave of
confusion and misunderstanding. The medical establishment wins honors, praise and
prizes for its descriptions of diseases and how to manage symptoms. Yet this health
paradigm—this distorted way of viewing health— is not solving our problems. If we are taught that thousands of diseases exist, then of course we must go to
doctors for all our health problems; only the doctor has the education to deal with all
the different diseases and their treatments. The new perspective I offer you is that
there is only one disease; health is then easier to understand, and the power to get
healthy and to stay healthy lies within yourself. Aside from medical emergencies,


 used in three ways: as a local ized
application, as a pack and as a fu ll mud bath. Mud is harvested from
the man y ant hills found on site; as the ants have taken the mud
from dee p down, it’ s incredibly pure without any surface polluta nts. Therapists furth er prepare it by sieving it, washing it properly, and
sterilizing it by drying it in sun light. It is then stored carefull y in
airtight containers. “Mud is healing in itself,” expl ains the resident naturopath Dr
Usha Devi. “It has the property  of retaining temperature for a l ong
time, so  depending on the ailm ent, can be applied either hot or
cold.” H ot mud is used for join t conditions such as arthritis an d to
reduce oedema or water retentio n in localized areas of the body, and
cold mu d helps in the treatment of skin diseases, such as psor iasis
for example. Sometimes, herbs may be added such as disinfecting neem and
turmeric if there is a possibility of infection and castor oil may  be
added to an abdominal pack in liver conditions. It helps stimulate
the circulation of blood towar ds the liver, thereby aiding in  the
detoxification process. Whichever mud therapy is assigned, the feeling is nurturing and
strengthening. The tightening experienced when the mud dries on
the skin is pleasant — be it hot or cold — and as it is straight from
nature, you can be sure it is doing good work. The full mud bath is
particularly invigorating: being slathered in soft, creamy mud, then
having it washed of f afterwards  is a self-indulgent treat. The skinfeels sof t, smooth, tight and tin gly afterwards — and there is no
need for extra moisturizing. Application of mud from top to toe may sound a bit messy (gross even), but it is an
invigorating experie nce especially if the body is wrapped in a blanket after
application. Micro elements from the mud are absorbed into the body and toxins
expelled leaving skin and internal organs refreshed. Mud from Soukya’ s organic site is harvested, mixed with pure water and made into
packs for a variety of uses. When placed on the abdomen, it is left for 20 minutes
to improve  digestion, strengthen the metabolism of the liver, prevent constipation
and speed  up blood circulation to the internal organs. Full of elements such as
iron, manganese, zinc, copper, chromium and cobalt, it is therapeutic in the
extreme.ksheera dhooma
Medicated Milk Steam
A particular A yurvedic method unique to Kerala,  ksheera
dhooma  is presc ribed f or patients with facial palsy, certain
nervous disorders, dif ficulty in voice and speech, headaches
and trigeminal neuralgia (the trigeminal nerve is a cranial
nerve t hat sup plies the face). The word  ksheera  translates
as “milk” and  dhooma  indicates a “fomentation by vapor”. Generally giv en to the fac e, although the steam may be
directed to other parts of the body suf fering from dif fe rent
conditions, it consists of a steaming with medicated milk. It
is considered a treatment for  vata  related disorders. First of all, a selection of herbs is boiled up with cow’ s milk, then
the steam issuing from the mix is passed through a tube to  the
af fected area of the body (this has first been oiled with medic ated
herbal oil chosen according to the body’ s constitution and
condition). The steam makes what is known in A yurvedic circles as
a fomen tation on the face, thereby allowing medicinal properties to
be absorbed. The idea is to stimulate nerve endings and open up the
micro-channels just below the skin’ s surface. At Soukya International Holistic Health Center, the medicated
milk is steamed through a papaya stalk onto the chosen area. This
allows t he prope rties of the herb s and the milk to mix with pap ain,
the active enzyme in papaya,  before it reaches its destinat ion. Papain is helpful in loosening and dissolving the top layer of d ead
skin cells, so, in this case, it helps prepare the skin for the
absorption of the medicated herbs. The treatment is prescribed oncea da y fo r three, five or seven day s consecutively and may be of f ered
in c ombination with other trea tments. It’ s a good example o f a
traditional therapy of fered in modern surrounds. A therapist directs steam from boiling medicated milk on to the face of a patie nt at
the integrated wellness center called Soukya. Known as a  swedan  (fomentation)
therapy,  ksheera dhooma  is tradition ally prescribed for people with  vata  related
disorders (any muscle, ligament, joint or nerve-related disorder).netra tarpanam
Vasthi Therapy for the Eyes
At an A yurved a clinic,  netra tarpanam  is seen as an oral
eye care treatment to help w ith eye strain, dryness of ey es,
poor sight and other eye-rela ted conditions. It is believed to
strengthen the  muscles round the eyes, cool the eyes, oleate
the area  round the eyes and may even help with myopia. As
with all A yurvedic prescriptions, at least a two-week course
is s uggested, and during th e course of the treatment the
patient should not be exposed to harsh light. The treatment uses the mediu m of ghee or  gritham, a type  of
clarified butter that is used all  over India in cooking. “Ghee has
what we call  samskarika anuvarthana  in Sanskrit,” explains
A yurvedic doctor, Dr Y ogesh, “this means it has the specific quality
of being  able to absorb propert ies of herbal products and transfer
them into the skin.” Depending on the condition,  triphala gritham,
good for the eyesight, or  jeevanthyadhi gritham, a ghee that helps
develop immunity, may be used. T o keep the ghe e in place over the eye socket, a dough of black
or g reen gram fl our paste (gram powder mixed with water) is m ade
and stuc k around both eye cavities. A small amount of ghee me lted
to room temperature is then poured into the watertight enclosure, so
that it fills the contained area a nd makes the eyelashes sink s hut. The ghee is kept on the eyes for 20 minutes, during which time the
patient is encouraged to move the eyes around. It is a slightly fiddly process, and may not be for everybody. Some people experience a burning sensation when the medicatedghee is poured in, and having t o hold still for a long time isn’ t to
every body’ s liking. Strictly speaking,  netra tarpanam  is a  vasthi  therapy (see pages 32–35), as
medicated ghee is kept trapped on a topical area in a watertight “reservoir” of
dough. Whilst the ghee rests in its place, eyes should be rolled around, opened
and closed, thereby allowing the ghee’ s properties to be fully absorbed.kizhi therapy
The Hot Herbal Pouch
In A yurveda, the herbal poultice is a time-honored tradition
of healing with heat. Packed with goodness, warm ed
pouches of herbs, plants, roots, and more, have been applied
to sore, sprained or sad bodies for centuries. Classified as a
swedanam  (Sanskrit for sweat therapy) in the V edic texts,
the herbal poultice is both detoxifying and healing. Specially selected ingredients are tied tightly in natural
cloth, s teamed for a few min utes, then dipped in medicated
herbal oil and applied to the body. On application, the heat
induces sweating, thereby helping to bring toxins to the
surface of the skin; then, once the pores are open, s kin
absorbs the properties of the herbs for healing. The  kizhi  (Mahalayam word for bundle) has proved so popular over
the c enturies, its fame has sprea d to other cultures too. Many South
East Asi an herbal healthcare practices rely on the herbal poultice to
relieve sore muscles and joint pains, while in India, hospi tals,
homestays, spas, wellness centers and salons of fer various forms
both as a stand -alone treatmen t or in conjunction with ano ther
therapy such as massage. The content, method of application and
usage varies widely. Patrapotlaswedanam
The Sanskrit name for this an cient A yurvedic treatment is taken
from  patra  meaning “leaves”,  potla  translating as “pouch” and
swedanam  meaning “fomentation” or “s weat therapy”. Theintegrated medical center called Soukya, just outside Bangalore, is
known for its extensive herb gardens

    No ma tter who you are, sexual ener gy is constantl y building  up
and accu mulating  in the sexual  region. Som e negative  evidence
has been  collected  regar ding the health  of celibates  based  on
studies  of priests  and nuns  who use only  willpower to suppress
the sexual fire  within.!t has been  found  that the practice  of celibac y
by women  has broug ht on the eventual  deterior ation  of the  sexual
organs  caused  by long- term congestion  in the  ovaries  or breasts,
in turn  affecting  the internal  orga ns. Som e celibates  are able  to transform their  sexual  energ y
naturall y, and as a result  no problems arise  in the celibate  state. A
woma n who is not so naturall y enlightene d will find an accumulation
in her  body and sexual  organs  of too  much sexual  energ y. This
energy  tends  to need  a release,  and if the  woma n has no way to
handle  the problem prop erly, the energ y can affect  her adversel y,
multiplying her negativ e emotions. Without prope rly cultivating

1. Wo man’s Menstrual  Cycle
   It is said  that anatomy  is destiny : wome n are born  to be  mothers. A baby  girl’s ovaries  are immature, small and  smooth, but  they
contain  the power necessar y to create  the 300- 500 eggs  she will
produce  in her  repro ductive  years and a reserve  of potentiall y
450,000  eggs. Every  woman  has a profou nd connection  with her menstrual
cycle. Women students  of the Universal  Tao System have  reveal ed
how sensitive  they are to what seems to be  subtle  changes  in their
cycles: they notice  right  away if their  periods  are one day early  or
late, if they  last a da y longer  or are a da y shorter  and if the
consistency  or color  varies  from what they  have  come to expect. Apparentl y many women  reme mber an  event  that occurre d the
day they received  their  first periods. Those  memories may  be
pleasant  or unpleas ant, but they  remain indelible. One woman
remem bers it wa s the first tim e a man tried  to pick  her up: another
woma n reme mbers that  her mother slapped  her face (a gestur e of
welcome into  the world of being  a woman ): anoth er woman  hit a
home run  in a softball  game that  day. Man y women’s  cycles  beco me a  source  of much confusion  and
uncertaint y. They  are unsure  about  fertile  times, are asha med of
secretions  and odors,  are discontent  with available  birth  control
methods,  develop  ange r at common childbirth  practices,  or harb or
a sim ultaneous  depende ncy on and distrust  of the medical
profession. Som e wome n go throug h life with few problems during  their
cycles, having  easy  periods,  uncomplicated  births,  or smooth
transitions  into me nopaus e. Others  have  distressing  problems w ith
their periods,  such as  recurre nt vaginal  infections,  abnormal Pap
smears, difficult  births,  hysterect omies, or they  take s ynthetic
hormones  because  of disabling  hot flashes. - 68 -Chapter  V
   Major  changes  can occur  in the  menstrual  cycles  as well as in
many other  aspects  in the  lives of some women  simply  by practicing
Ovarian  Breathing. The point  is that,  even  if a woma n has two or three  children  and
does  not plan  to have  more, her body  continues  cyclicall y to prod uce
ovary  energ y. Instead  of wasting that energy, it can be  conserve d
through  transformation  into anothe r form  for later  use. The Ovarian
exercises  provide  a way to use that Ovarian  pow er:
2. Yang Energy and the  Menstrual  Cycle
    There  are three  distinct parts  to the menstrual  cycle. First,  there
is the  period  itself. Follo wing menstruatio n, an ovary  spurts  several
immature eggs  into action,  and usuall y one egg matures  com pletel y. Surround ed by a jel ly-like covering,  it breaks  out of the ovar y. That
period  of time, fro m the  end of the bleedin g until  ovulation,  is the
time of ma ximum ovary  pow er During  this part of the c ycle the
Taoists believe  that the ovaries’  energ y is at its most Yang, or most
hot. After  ovulation  the ruptu red area  of the ovary  heals  and forms
the corpus  luteum, or y ellow body. This yell ow body produc es
progeste rone. The function  of progester one is to keep  the uterin e
lining  from sloughing  off. If  the egg unites  with a sperm and  a
pregna ncy starts,  progest erone will be secreted  during  the entire
pregna ncy. If there  is no  fertilization,  the ovar y will produc e a spurt
of estrog en, and the menstruation  cycle will begin. The Taoists note,  and wome n’s experienc es to date  confir m,
that the part of the  cycle between menstruation  and ovulation  is the
time that a woma n will receive  the maximum benefit  from the
practice  of Ovarian  Breathing,  with continue d practice  then  being
optional  until  the next  cycle. The process  of Ovarian  Breathing  will
draw energy  out of the egg. Imagine  having  access  to an  energ y
that is pow erful enoug h to besto w life! C. Diaphrag ms
    The bod y possesses  not one but several  diaphra gms. E veryone
is familiar with the thoracic  diaphragm in  the chest, separ ating  the
heart  and lungs  from the abdominal  organs  and assisting  us in
breathin g. When you inhale,  this diaphragm lo wers, thus  increasing
the space  in the  chest  and allow ing the lungs  to fill: the  deeper  the
breath,  the lower the diaphr agm m oves. - 69 -Cultivating  Ovarian Power
   Less  is know n about  the pelvic  and urogenit al diaphra gms, wh ich
separate  the pelvis from the perin eum. To practice  Ovarian  Breathing
properl y you must use  not only the chest diaphr agm, but  also  the
pelvic and  urog enital  diaphra gms. (Fig. 5.1) These serve  as flood
gates,  opening  to spurt  energy  to the organs,  or as  pistons,  pumping
the energy  up to higher  centers. True breat hing comes fro m these
lower diaphragms. It  is an exceedin gly important


 If you relax and release back into your
seat of consciou sness, you are relaxing away from the part of you that’s
complaining. There is definitely complaining going on in the mind, no
reason to deny that. But if you relax and lean away from where the noise is
coming from, you will be leaning back into the seat of Self. Two things happen when you relax and release. One, you stop fighting
with the causes of your disturbe d mind, and that gives them room to release. Two, you are actually relaxing back into the seat of Self, and you will grow
spiritually. If you will do that with the weather, if you will do that with the
car in front of you, if you will do that with all these low-hanging fruit
situations, you’l l grow every single day. The way to know that you are
working with low-hanging fruit is that the situation is resolved simply by
letting go inside. There is nothing else to do about it. You were the only
problem, and once you let go of creating the problem, the problem is solved. If you accept the weather, there’ s nothing else to do about it. If you accept
the myri ad meaningless things you have decided to bother yourself about,
there’ s nothing else to do about them. That’ s how you identify the low-
hanging fruit.In contrast, if you let go of your reactions to a situation and there is still
something in front of you to deal with, then you have some work to do
outside. If you lose your job and work with letting go of your negative
reaction, that’s good, but you still need to go out and look for a new job. Letting go does not absolve you of your responsibilities in life. You are not
letting go of life, you are letting  go of your personal reactions to life. Your
personal reactio ns do not help you deal with situations in a constructive
manner—they actually cloud your ability to make good decisions. When all is said and done, you’re going to find the majority of your
inner disturbance falls into the category of low-hanging fruit. The only
reason there’ s a problem is because you defined it that way. You are the
problem, and that can’ t be solved outside. It can only be solved inside.Chapter 32. The Past
You’re driving down the street and a billboard reminds you of something
that troubled you in the past. Perhaps it was an event that happened eight
years ago. What is the benefit of getting disturbed by that? You just ruined
your day for no good reason. Just because something bothered  you in the
past doesn’ t mean it should still be bothering you. After all, it’s no longer
happening. You think that since you don’t want to go through it again, you
need to remember how bad it was. That’ s like saying you need a doggy bag
for the food that made you sick so you can take it home, taste it each
morning, and remember how sick it made you. You would never do that
with bad food, so why do you do it with bad experiences? We are now ready to pay attenti on to another area that is very ripe for
spiritual growth, your past. You probably won’ t agree at first, but it also
falls under one-hundred-percent cost and zero benefit. Of what possible
benefit could it be to still be bothered by something that happened before
that isn’t happen ing now? It’s already over. There is zero benefit to being
bothered by something that is not even happening. On the other hand, there
is certai nly an amazing cost: your entire mental, emotional, and even
physical health. Instead, if you let experiences pass completely through you when they
are actually happening, they will touch you to the core of your being and
become part of you without leaving any scars. You will simply be able to
learn from the experience and grow. Once you fully digest an experience,
you will natural ly know how to deal with it should it happen again. If you
touched a hot stove when you were a child, you don’t have to keep the
painful experience in the forefront of your mind. You don’t need to always
remind yourself that stoves are hot and can hurt you. If you do that, you willhave made a samskara out of the experience instead of simply learning from
it. Don’ t worry, you will know darn well not to touch a hot stove again. Similarly, once you have learne d a sport or a musical instrument, you
don’t have to keep thinking about how to play—it becomes second nature. That means it has integrated into your whole being. It becomes totally
natural, and you never need to think about it again as you do it. That is how
all your past learning experiences should be, effortlessly there when you
actually need them, never bothering you when you don’t. If you process
your experiences properly, they will always be there to serve you, never to
haunt you. Perhaps this exercise will help you understand what it means to fully
process somethi ng instead of having to pass it through your thinking mind. Just for a moment, glance at the scene in front of you. How hard was it for
you to see it? Obviously, it took no effort at all; you just instantly saw it. What if the finest artist in the world called you on the phone  wanting to
paint what you saw, right then. How long would it take you to describe
everything to them? We’re talking about every color shade, reflection of
light, grain variation in the wood, every single detail. That would be a very
long phone call. Yet you saw it all in a billionth of a second. That is the
difference betw een consciousn ess just seeing versus the mind trying to
process what is seen. This difference holds true for all life’s experiences. When you have an
experience, it can simply come in and touch consciousness directly. It
doesn’ t need the mind to judge it as desirable or undesirable and then store
it accordingly. Just as you were able to see the scene in front of you in full
detail without “thinking” about it, so you can integrate the fullness of your
experiences into your being without having to block them in your mind. There’s nothing richer than a fully processed experience integrated into
your whole being. How many incid ences from your past would you like to truly be done
with rather than having to deal with them mentally and emotionally, long
after they are ancient history? In fact, to achieve deep spirituality, your
unfinished past cannot be inside of you. It must be gone—not suppressed,
but gone. You will see over time that when those blocked patter ns are gone,
all that is left is the flow of spirit. What is left is the most beautiful thing
that could ever exist.How do you let go of the past? It’s very straightforward. The past
blockages will come up on their own on a daily basis, and when they do—
let them go. There is no game here. It’s quite simple. Outside events cause
stored patterns to come up. Good, let them come up. Things are going to
happen in your life that hit your samskaras. If samskaras are in there, they
are going to get hit. The world is perfect for each person’ s growth, but not
for the reason you think. The world is a perfect fit for everyone’ s growth
because everyon e is looking at the world through their own blockages. It’s
the same as with the Rorschach inkblot test. It’s not that the inkblot is
perfectly tailored to bring up your issues. It’s that you are looking at the
inkblot through the veil of your issues and projecting your issues onto it. That’ s why the same inkblot works fine for diagnosing all patients, just as
the same  world works perfectly  for everyone’ s growth. If you want to see
what is really out there, you need to get rid of your inner issues. Our scientists tell us there’ s really nothing out there—just a bunch of
atoms made up of electrons, neutrons, and protons. Our quantum physicists
go even further. They tell us that there’ s really just a quantum field of pure
energy that has both wave and particle characteristics. The subatomic
particles emanating from this energy field (quarks, leptons, and bosons) are
what make up our entire universe. Though you couldn’ t care less about
these particles, the structures they create come in through your senses, hit
your stored blockages, and it gets uncomfortable in there. You are doing
this; the subatomic particles can’t be doing this. To free yourself, the
moment you notice disturban ce, let go. Don’ t wait until that initial
disturbance takes over your mind. You are perfectly aware that you’re
beginning to get upset before you actually get upset. You feel it. You feel
when something starts to bother you. If you want to grow spiritually, that’s
the moment when you do the work. This is the essence of spiritual growth. If you work on yourself,  you’re
going to create a beautiful place  inside to live. This is more important than
your marriage or your family. It’s more important than your job or your
career. You’re working on yourself directly instead of indirectly. If you
create a beautifu l inner environment, you can have


 a long time andhave worked for many people. But it will not work unless thebody’s hormones are in balance. Since hormone levels decrease as we age, the older you are,
the likelier it is that your hormones may need to be adjusted.For reasons discussed throughout this book, finding a doctorwho can balance your hormones successfully, using the naturalhormones that involve the fewest side effects, may not be easy.A compounding pharmacy may be able to direct you to aphysician who works with bio-identical hormones. And hope-fully this book will provide enough information, hints, andexamples to help you in your quest for proper treatment.175 PERMANENT WEIGHT LOSS  HUMAN GROWTH
HORMONE—HGH
chapter TWENTY– ONE
One hormone I have not mentioned until now is human
growth hormone (HGH). It regulates how the body grows,repairs itself, and burns fat. Interest in HGH replacement therapy has been on the
increase ever since the publication of an article in the
New
England Journal of Medicine that showed HGH’s rejuvenating
potential. Daniel Rudman, M.D. documented the effects ofsix months of HGH supplementation upon 21 men aged 61to 81 years. The results were remarkable. Every area measuredshowed improvement—their body fat decreased, their leanbody mass increased, their skin became thicker, and their bonedensity increased. He said it was equivalent to undoing 10 to20 years of aging. Now dubbed the “fountain of youth hormone,” HGH has
become a star feature at anti-aging clinics around the country.T oday more people are being exposed to HGH than everbefore, and it may possibly be of benefit when used correctly. 177QUESTIONS ARISE
However, as with any hormone, you must weigh the benefits
against the risks. The primary role of HGH after age 30 is tohelp the body repair tissues—the growth stage is over. Givinghigh dosages of a hormone that can promote the growth oftissue may lead to unwanted side effects: acromegaly(enlargement of bony tissue), enlargement of the heart leadingto congestive heart failure, carpal tunnel syndrome, andarthritis. As people get older, there is always the possibility ofcancerous tissue sitting somewhere in their bodies. HGH couldstimulate the growth of that tissue. (Note that when HGH isused in children to stimulate normal levels of growth it doublestheir chances of getting childhood leukemia.) HGH is notrecommended for people with diabetes. HGH is the main hormone put out by the pituitary gland. Taking inappropriately high doses, especially over prolongedperiods, can suppress the pituitary gland. It’s the master gland,which can affect all other endocrine glands in the body, so thismay create even more problems. However, there are ways of elevating HGH levels without
giving HGH directly. This can be done through manipulatingother hormones or by giving supplements called secretoguesthat stimulate HGH production. This is a much less expensiveapproach than the usual high price tag charged by many anti-aging clinics for HGH injections. OTHER CONCERNS
I have a lot of respect for nature. It seems to know what it’s
doing. When using hormones to alter the natural pattern, onemust always consider the logic of it. Giving high dosages of178 THE MIRACLE OF BIO-IDENTICAL HORMONES  HGH at a time when the body no longer needs high levels may
be problematic. The same is true with estrogen replacement. A woman
never stops making estrogen. It is produced, for instance, in fatcells, in skin cells, and in the adrenal glands. The high levelscustomarily given in hormone replacement therapy are neededonly when a woman is trying to get pregnant—not a likelyscenario in menopausal women. This is another situation inwhich the risks may far outweigh the apparent benefits. One last thought to keep in mind: A major reason for the
popularity of HGH is the high level of interest in anti-agingremedies. HGH stimulates the production of IGF-1 (insulin-like growth factor-1) in the liver. In fact, levels of IGF-1 areused to monitor HGH production. Recent studies indicate,however, that IGF-1 may actually speed up the aging process;it is considered the number two hormone to do this. Insulin,by the way, is number one. Another concern is that high levels of IGF-1 are found in
the cancerous tissues of people with breast and prostate cancer.My feeling is that the jury is still out when it comes to usingHGH. It may possibly be administered safely with carefullycontrolled dosages and monitoring for untoward effects:edema, tingling in the fingertips, arthritic pains, and unwantedgrowths. However, the bottom line regarding the use of HGHis that it may be illegal to prescribe it. Congress passed a lawyears ago addressing the off-label use of HGH that declaresit illegal to use HGH as an anti-aging drug or for otherunsupported claims.179 HUMAN GR OWTH HORMONE—HGH  DOCTORS DON’T ALWAYS
LISTEN—SHIRLEY M. ’S STORY
chapter TWENTY–TWO
Before she came to see me at age 50, Shirley had suffered from
asthma and severe headaches for her entire adult life. Doctorswere unable to help her with either problem, or with theweight gain that started in her 20s. As I helped Shirley master her weight I was able to remove
the cause of her asthma and headaches, too. I only wish shehad come to me earlier. She would have been spared ahysterectomy and the removal of her gallbladder. Medicalstudies have shown that 90 percent of hysterectomies may notbe necessary. Shirley’s story should strike a familiar note with patients
who, when seeking help from the conventional medicalcommunity, feel they are being ignored and misunderstood. For the first 21 years of my life I was healthy and skinny as a
rail. I weighed around 103 pounds. Although I developedasthma as a teenager, other than that, I didn’t have a lot ofmedical problems. All of that changed after I had my first baby. That’s when my
weight began to fluctuate and I started experiencing painfulheadaches. I went from a size 3 to a size 13, and the headaches
181began affecting my ability to function. After my second pregnancy
I went up to a size 18 and the headaches got even worse. I triedliving on aspirin to control the pain, but it didn’t work. At the age of 45 I hit a wall with my weight. I’d always
followed the Dr. Atkins diet to lose weight, but suddenly it didn’twork anymore. So I tried different things. I tried eating smallportions, eating low fat, low sugar, whole grains, fresh fruits andvegetables. I tried eating yogurt and popcorn and oatmeal. Ithought these foods were good for me and would help me, but allthey did was make me bigger. As I got older my asthma attacks went out of control. It almost
seemed as though the more weight I gained, the worse the asthmagot. I started carrying my inhaler with me all of the time. After my third baby I had gained so much weight I lost all the
muscle control in my tummy. I was pear-shaped. I had skinny legs,skinny arms, and a huge stomach. My doctor at the time told methat if I tried to carry another baby I’d probably drag it on theground so I decided not to have any more babies. I had my uterusremoved. That was in 1988. I had other medical problems at that time as well. I had to
have a bladder operation—it seemed like everything was fallingout of me! One day I had an attack, doubling over in pain, avery sharp pain in the whole stomach. I was taken to a doctorwho diagnosed gallbladder and scheduled me for surgery.Unfortunately, after that surgery I had constant diarrhea. I alsohad high cholesterol. All my hormones had gone out of whack. My doctor at the time prescribed Premarin for me and also
Meridia, a diet pill for weight loss (I was up to a size 20). In anattempt to understand my failing health, I was reading a lot, andI got hold of some literature that was critical of Premarin. I sharedit with this doctor. She told me it was nonsense. She said that sinceI did not have a uterus, I needed estrogen. She changed myPremarin to an estradiol patch, another type of estrogen.182 THE MIRACLE OF BIO-IDENTICAL HORMONES  I began waking up every morning with headaches. It got so
that I dreaded going to sleep at night because I knew that when Iwoke up I’d have this excruciating pain. I had no energy andstarted experiencing hot flashes. When I discussed these symptomswith my doctor and suggested that the estradiol patch and theMeridia might not be helping me, she made me feel like a failure.It was as though it was my fault that I could not lose weight. I was so worried about my failing health that I started
talking to everyone I met looking for advice. Through acompounding pharmacist I found my way to Dr. Platt. At our first meeting, Dr. Platt did a very thorough history on
me. He wanted to know everything about my medical history, myparents’ medical history, my sister, my husband, everything. Hehad me take a blood test on my first visit. He did a completehormone panel and, after looking over the


 and waist. Don’ t
speed up the movements, however, just proceed slowly and rhythmically. You’ll notice that this is an extremely pleasant exercise, because as you
open, your body fills with breat h, awareness, and enjoyment all at once—
the sensation is light, warm, tingling. As you close, the body relaxes and
slumps under its own weight, becoming more grounded and still. You are
exploring a complete range of feeling, which allows the subtle breath to
penetrate into every channel. The Vata Connection
As we get older, there is a natural tendency for Prana to diminish; this must
be count ered to preserve youthfulness. In India, longevity was traditionally
assigned to a branch of learning called Ayurveda,  derived from two Sanskrit
roots, Ayus, or “life,” and Veda, meaning “science” or “knowle dge. ” This
ancient “scienc e of life” is usually referred to as India’ s traditional
medicine, but there is a deeper spiritual basis for Ayurveda. The most
famous verse from the ancient Ayurvedic texts says, Ayurveda amritanam
(“Ayurveda is for immortality”). The meaning is twofold: Ayurveda is for
promoting longe vity without limit, and it does this from a belief that life
essentially is immortal. According to A yurveda, the life ener gy, or Prana, is channeled throughout
our bodies by a “wind” known as Vata. Vata is one of the three metabolic
principles ( doshas ) that give form to every living thing, be it a mosquito, an
elephant, a human being, a planet, a star, or the entire cosmos. Vata is
responsible for movement of every kind. In the human body it is divided
into five parts:
Prana V ata regulates the nervous system. Udana V ata regulates cognitive skills, speech, and memory. Samana V ata regulates digestion. Vyana V ata regulates circulation. Apana V ata regulates excretion. All five aspects of V ata are controlled by the first and most important, Prana
Vata, for as the name implies, this dosha brings in Prana, the life force,
which is then distributed to the rest of the body. When Prana Vata is out of
balance, there is general disruption throughout the system. Ayurveda holds
that old age is a particularly sensitive time for such imbalances. Vata is
naturally higher in old age, and if a person has not been careful to keep
Prana V ata in balance, the following symptoms will result:
SYMPT OMS OF V ATA IMBALANCE
Physical symptoms Mental/behavioral symptoms
Dry or rough skin; wrinkles Insomnia
Chronic underweight; muscle
wastingWorry, anxiety
Weak kidneys; loss of
bladder controlDepression
Weak or irregular heartbeat
Fatigue
ConstipationConfusion, restless thoughts
Common arthritis Intolerance to stress
Nonspecific aches and pains Intolerance to coldWeakened immunity
(susceptibility to colds,
pneumonia, and other
infections)
You’ll immedia tely notice the close match between these disorders of
imbalanced Vata and aging. As the “wind” of the body, Vata is cold, drying,
and piercing. When Vata is aggravated, it is as if a withering wind begins to
stir inside. Usually the first place to which aggravated Vata will travel is the
joints, initiating a range of joint problems beginning with minor aches and
pains (these cause trouble especially during winter, the season that is worst
for Vata disturbance) and ending with degenerative arthritis if the
aggravation persists. Since every cell contains Vata dosha, the effects of aggravating it are not
confined to the joints. The whole body begins to shrivel and dry up; the
bowels become dry, tight, and constipated; racked with insomnia  and worry,
the person languishes, prey to ever-increasing aches and pains. Millions of
prescriptions for painkillers, tranquilizers, and sleeping pills are written by
baffled doctors who cannot explain why elderly patients start exhibiting
such symptoms, since usually there is nothing organically wrong. In
medical terminology, organic  means that a physical organ shows signs of
disease or malfunction. Physicians tend to dismiss symptoms without
organic cause as psychosomatic or idiopathic (unexplainable). Old people rarely suf fer from just one of the symptoms of V ata imbalance
and many suffer them on a broad scale. If multiple drugs are prescribed for
each symptom, new imbalances  begin to pile up, for the body cannot help
but react with imbalance to painkillers, diuretics, tranquilizers, sleeping
pills, beta blockers, and all the other medications commonly prescribed for
the elderly. Whether we like it or not, a symptom is something the body
wants to express—it is a message—and drugs suppress that expression. How fast you age is intimately linked to the speed and intensity of Vata
aggravation. Some people are extremely prone to Vata imbalance, while
others are not. Some people may get aggravated Vata in their fingers,
leading to arthritis, while others  get it in their intestines, leading to chronic
constipation. What can cause Vata imbalance. Ayurveda follows the principle of
complementarity—“like speaks to like. ” What this means is that any quality
Vata dosha possesses will be stimulated by the same quality outside your
body. These qualities are as follows. QUALITIES OF V ATA DOSHA
Dry
Cold
Changeable
Rough
Moving
Light
Subtle
Quick
Leads other doshas
Anything in your environment that contains the above traits will increase
Vata. For example:
Dry weather; dry foods (crackers, cereals, potato chips, etc. ) Cold weather; cold food and drink
Changeable: sudden life changes; death in family; loss of job; mood
swings; sudden change of season; etc. Rough-textured materials next to the skin; rough words or behavior
Moving: travel; falling down; physical exercise or labor; exposure to
drafts or wind
Light foods that have a high air content, particularly raw fruits and
vegetables
Subtle changes of mood, a subtle draft
Quick: any activity, physical or mental, requiring speed; being made
to rush
Let me illustrate  how these qualities (called gunas  in Sanskrit) interact. If
my kidneys detect a fluid shortage in my bloodstream, they secrete aspecific chemical messenger—angiotensin 2—which gets carried to the
hypothalamus in the brain and is converted into a mental event: I feel
thirsty. This feeling then prompts me to act by getting a glass of water. In Ayurvedic terms, what has happened is a steady flow of one impulse
of intelligence—V ata—as it registers the needs of 50 trillion cells
simultaneously. Vata has the quality of being dry, and it increases under any
kind of dry condition. Dry crackers, dry desert heat, dry cold from air-
conditioning, and even dry wit all serve to increase Vata. Dryness make us
thirsty because our bodies detect this increased Vata, and the signal will
persist until something wet, such as a drink of water, brings the opposite
quality into play and V ata falls back into line. Vata is the easiest dosha to push out of balance, but also the easiest to
bring back. Since Prana Vata, the most important aspect of this dosha,
regulates the nervous system,  it shifts with the slightest thought or
sensation. By doing the thing s that are needed to keep Prana Vata in
balance, we have a complete system for conserving Prana and defeating the
aging process at an extremely subtle level. This means we must pay some
attention to Vata every day, whic h is in fact quite a natural and easy thing to
do. Vata can be “pacified”—i. e., kept in balance—through various lifestyle
measures. PACIFYING V ATA
To keep  Vata dosha in balance, you need to keep the following  qualities in
mind:
Regular: regular habits; mealtimes; bedtime; work
schedule
Warm: warm, well-cooked food; sunshine;
avoidance of cold food and drink
Nourishing: rich, nourishing, even heavy foods in cold
weather; nurturing emotions
Relaxing: taking time for adequate rest; avoidance of
stressful situations, overexcitement, and
overexertionStable: stable relationships and work; stable home
life
Calming: quiet, orderly work environment; gentle
massage (particularly good is warm oil
massage using sesame oil)
Steady: steady supply of food and water to body; not
skipping meals or going on an empty
stomach
A dosha  is pacified by qualities it lacks. Because Vata tends to make
people erratic, irregular, and inconsistent, it is helpful to coun ter with the
oposite—steadiness and regularity. Small matters such as not skipping
meals and going to bed on time pay large dividends in pacifying Vata. Prolonged expo sure to stress creates serious Vata imbalance, so special
attention has to be paid to giving yourself a quiet, orderly work
environment. Cheerful conditions at work greatly relieve the Vata tendency
to

 into believing it to be your truth. Take a look around your world and notice the abundance and end-
lessness of our universe. It goes on and on, beyond our ability to
imagine its vastness. This abundance flows from the same energy that
comprises our fundamental essence. It is you. You are it. Make no
mistake about it. Material form is how spirit makes itself known to us while we are
in form ourselves. Spirit manifests in trees, oceans, fish, birds, min-
erals, vegetables, flowers and you. All that you see around you is a
part of the material manifestation of spirit. Matter is not an illusion,
or something that ought not to be, but is the necessary means
through which spirit differentiates itself on this plane of existence. To feel that it is selfish or non-spiritual to desire and manifest is to
divide the world of spirit and the world of matter into polar oppo-
sites. When we adopt an attitude of spirit being incompatible with
matter, we are denying the spirit that is in matter as its originating
72
Manifest Your Destiny
energy. We also deny the validity of ourselves as spiritual beings. There is no reason to feel ashamed of wanting things to come into
your life. It is far better to have an attitude of deserving whatever
shows up in your life and to be willing to participate in the dance of
creation as a co-creator. When we shift to seeing that together they
comprise one harmonious whole, we remove the stigma of selfish-
ness. Just as each of us is one harmonious whole comprised of spirit
and matter, so, too, is the entire universe. The process of life taking form is a mystery. That mystery is gov-
erned by a creative energy that is knowable when we genuinely feel
worthy of receiving its blessings in form. Abundance is the way of the
creative force in the universe. You are entitled to have abundance in
your life, and to radiate prosperity to all that you encounter in your
world. Nothing is gained by making yourself small and insignificant
other than to manifest smallness and insignificance in your life. To facilitate an attitude of deserving abundance, it will be helpful
to examine what you want to change in order to cultivate this know-
ing at the cellular level of your being. THE CORE COMPONENTS OF WORTHINESS
Everything that you need to master in order to make this fifth
principle a working model in your life is available as a mental activity. You do not need to go out into the world and conquer it in any way. It is simply a matter of changing your mind about your basic worthi-
ness to receive all of God’s blessings, be they material or otherwise. There has been a lot of effort put into conditioning us to feel
unworthy of having all that life has to offer. Most of us have accepted
a lot of the stuff that egos have thrown our way, beginning with our
arrival as infants. Certainly there is nothing wrong with an attitude of
poverty and asceticism. If this is your path, you know it deep within
syourself and you know that God appears in all things material and
nonmaterial. Spirit cannot be divided into better or worse, depend-
73
WAYNE W. DYER
ing on which of God’s creations you opt to have or not have in your
life. Feeling worthy of any blessings or desires is a feature of your inner
life. To remove the stigma of materialistic selfishness you may need to
rearrange your inner perceptions. Here are the major perceptions of
beings who know they are worthy and deserving of all of God’s bless-
ing. 74 My self-esteem comes from myself. This person’s statement of his or
her inner perception might be something like the following: “As
a child of God, my worthiness is a given. I am not divided into
spirit and body, rather, I am a part of the all-knowing creation
called God itself. I am a human expressing God without reserva-
tion or restraint. ”
One of the reasons children are often able to express genius is
because they have not yet been hypnotized by the idea of being
limited. If they are able to resist this hypnotic spell, they remain
geniuses and are able to express their unlimited selves through-
out their lives on earth. Too often the ideas of other egos are what constitute our
impressions of ourselves as unworthy. We listen to the admoni-
tions of others who have low self-regard, and who are attempting
to exert influence and power over us. We then take on the exter-
nal validations of our unworthiness and begin to see ourselves as
some significant others would have us believe we are. It is
beyond the scope of most young children to resist these ideas. But, as adults, we can look back at this hypnosis and free our-
selves from its absurdity. You must know within that you are a part of the light that
lighteth every man. You are evidence of the existence of God,
and in your own particularized individuality, you have God
within you. Therefore, you must be able to say with conviction,
Manifest Your Destiny
“God is me, and I am God. ” It is this truth that will free you
from your feelings of unworthiness to attract to yourself all that
you desire. Think of your own desires to manifest as having been placed
there by spirit, and that those desires, which are housed in love
and service, are precisely what God wants to give you, and that
your desire is the direct path to receiving those blessings. Let go
of the idea that desire is selfishness and remind yourself that if
you had no desires ever, you would still be living an infantile
existence with toys in a sandbox. Whenever you feel unworthy of having your manifestations
arrive, remind yourself that no one is unworthy and that the
same divine energy that flows through you flows through all of
God’s children and that all are worthy. This includes you. Your desires are the very tools that allow you to grow and
experience the perfection of the universe. They take you beyond
any limitations that you might have embraced and lead you to a
higher spiritual awareness. Even the idea of achieving enlighten-
ment and mastery is a desire that you must honor. I accept myself without complaint. A person with this self-perception
thinks something like the following: “I am willing to face every-
thing about myself, without lapsing into self-contempt or repu-
diating my essential value as a piece of God. ”
Self-acceptance is something that must be unconditionally
known within ourselves. To accept oneself is not necessarily to
accept every behavior. Rather, it is a refusal to engage in sabotag-
ing acts of self-loathing. If you are in a state of self-rejection you
cannot feel worthy of the munificence of the universe. Your
inner energy is centered on what is wrong with yourself and with
complaining to yourself and anyone who will listen. You showed up here in a specific body, with certain physical

characteristics, with certain measurements and with certain par-
ents and siblings. This is your reality for the physical plane, and it
requires a high degree of willingness to look at your physical
appearance and say, “I accept this without complaint. ”
If you are unwilling to make such a declaration, your inner
energy will be sapped by anger, guilt, fear and pain, all combining
to circumvent the possibility of manifesting your desires. Remember, the ability to attract to yourself is based on the idea,
“That which ought to be. is already. ” What you desire is
already here and can only flow into your immediate life if you are
open to it doing so. Those thoughts of self-repudiation guarantee
that you cannot put out into the universe the knowing and loving
energy that is going to work for you. Self-acceptance is nothing more than a shift in consciousness. It requires only a change of mind. If your hair is falling out, then
you have the choice to mask it, worry about it or accept it. Acceptance means that you really have to do nothing. You honor
your body and the divine intelligence that is at work. When
someone else implies that you have a problem because your hair
is falling out, you don’t even know how to relate to their obser-
vation. Acceptance removes the label of “problem. ”
This is not a faked attitude. It is merely removing the ego
from your inner assessments, which are centered on the approval
of others. With self-acceptance you are able to honestly say, “I
am what I am and I accept it. ” Once this attitude is firmly in
place from a position of self-honesty, your worthiness to receive
the gifts of the universe becomes aligned with that divine power. Self-repudiation causes a misalignment with your divinity. Only you can make the shift. It is nothing more than an inner
perception that you have the power to change in this very
instant. Manifest Your Destiny
I take full responsibility for my life and what it is and is not. This
involves a removal of our strong ego-dominated inclination to
cast blame on others for what is absent from our lives. Taking
total responsibility means an awareness of the power that is
inherent within yourself. Rather than saying “They made me the way I am today” you
shift your inner thought to “I chose to be passive and fearful

Milk Thistle,  Mary thistle
Habitat & Cultivation
Native to the Mediterranean, milk
thistle grows throughout Europe and is
naturalized in California. It grows wild,
thriving in open areas, and is cultivated
as an ornamental plant. Milk thistle likes
a sunny position and self-seeds readily. The flower heads are picked in full
bloom in early summer and the seeds
are collected in late summer. Related Species
Other closely related herbs, including
holy thistle ( Cnicus benedictus,
p. 191) and globe artichoke ( Cynara
scolymus, p. 199), protect the liver
from toxicity and exert a positive
restorative action on liver function. Key Constituents
■ Flavonlignans (1–4%)
 (known collectively as “silymarin”)
■ Bitter principles
■ Polyacetylenes
Key Actions
■ Liver protective
■ Chemoprotective■ Anticancer
■ Anti-allergenic
■ Increases breast-milk production
Research
■ Silymarin  German research from
the 1970s onward has focused on
silymarin, a substance contained
in the seeds. This exerts a highly
protective effect on the liver,
maintaining its function and preventing
damage from compounds that are
normally highly toxic. It has been
shown that severe liver breakdown,
resulting from ingesting carbon
tetrachloride or death cap mushrooms,
can be prevented if silymarin is
taken immediately before, or within
48 hours. In Germany, silymarin has
been used successfully to treat
hepatitis and liver cirrhosis. ■ Other research  In several clinical
trials, silymarin extracts protected
liver function in people taking
chemotherapy for cancer, including,
in one trial, children suffering from
leukemia. Research so far suggests
that silymarin extracts support
healthy liver function during
chemotherapy and do not reduce
the effectiveness of chemotherapy
drugs. Laboratory research indicates
that silymarin, particularly silybin,
has significant anticancer properties. In a 2011 clinical trial in Iran, patients
with allergic rhinitis experienced
significantly fewer symptoms when
taking a silymarin extract. Traditional &

        ■ Anxiety A 2003 review of kava
found that “compared with placebo, kava extract is an effective symptomatic treatment for anxiety. ” The authors commented that “few adverse events were reported in the reviewed trials. ” Kava is nonaddictive, and clinical evidence suggests it is also  a safe and effective treatment for anxiety linked with depression,  for insomnia, and for pain relief. Traditional &
Current Uses
■ Traditional aphrodisiac Kava
is valued in the South Sea Islands as a calming and stimulating intoxicant. It produces a euphoric state when taken in large quantities. ■ Relaxing remedy Kava is a safe
and proven remedy for anxiety that does not cause drowsiness or affect the ability to operate machinery. It is valuable for treating muscle tension as well as emotional stress. ■ Pain relief With its tonic,
strengthening, and mildly analgesic properties, kava is a good remedy  for chronic pain, helping to reduce sensitivity and to relax muscles that are tensed in response to pain. ■ Arthritic conditions The
analgesic and cleansing diuretic effect of Kava often makes it a beneficial herb for treating rheumatic and arthritic problems such as gout. It helps to bring relief from pain and  to remove waste products from the affected joint. ■ Antiseptic Kava is routinely used
by peoples of the South Pacific to treat infection, especially where pain is a key symptom. In New Guinea,  it is taken to soothe and treat sore throats and to relieve toothache. It makes a valuable urinary antiseptic and will help in treating cystitis, urethritis, urinary frequency, and bladder irritability. ■ External uses The herb makes
a useful analgesic mouthwash for treating toothache and mouth ulcers. Root relieves pain and
counters urinary infections. Dried rootTraditionally the root is

  A classic remedy
for urinary tract infections, cranberry can be used
both to prevent and to treat problems such as
cystitis and urethritis. T aken as berries, juice, or
extract, it will help to disinfect the urinary tubules
and may be taken for problems associated with
poor urinary flow such as enlarged prostate, as
well as bladder infections. In cases of acute infection,
cranberry is likely to work better in combination
with herbs such as buchu ( Barosma betulina, p. 71)
and uva-ursi ( Arctostaphylos uva-ursi, p. 170). Cranberry may also be used long term to prevent the
development of calcium carbonate urinary stones. Research  Research published in 1994 found that
cranberry juice reduced the need for antibiotics
in women suffering from chronic urinary tract
infection. It seems likely that cranberry works by
making it more difficult for bacteria to cling to the
urinary tract wall, and infection is therefore more
easily flushed out. The proanthocyanidins and
catechins are probably responsible for this action. Cautions  In kidney disease, use only on
professional advice. Verbascum thapsus

Habitat & Cultivation  Native to Europe,
lesser periwinkle grows in along roadsides and
woodland borders. It is also cultivated as a garden plant. The leaves are gathered in spring. Parts Used Leaves. Constituents  Lesser periwinkle contains about
7% indole alkaloids (including vincamine, vincine, and vincaminine), a bisindol alkaloid (vincarubine), and tannins. Vincamine increases blood flow and oxygen supply to the brain. History & Folklore  In his Herbarium, the
2nd-century ce Roman writer Apuleius describes lesser periwinkle’s virtues “against the devil sickness and demoniacal possessions and against snakes and wild beasts.” He also specifies the rituals used in harvesting the herb: “This wort thou shalt pluck thus, saying, ‘I pray thee, vinca pervinca, thee that art to be had for thy many useful qualities… outfit me so that I be shielded and ever prosperous and undamaged by poisons and by water.’ When thou shalt pluck this wort, thou shalt be clean of every uncleanness, and thou shalt pick it when the moon is nine nights old.”
Medicinal Actions & Uses  Lesser periwinkle
is employed as an astringent and blood-staunching herb. Its astringency makes it a useful mouthwash for sore throats, gingivitis, and mouth ulcers. Its staunching ability is effective against internal bleeding, heavy menstrual bleeding, and nosebleeds. Since vincamine was discovered in the leaves, lesser periwinkle has been used to treat arteriosclerosis and for dementia due to insufficient blood flow to the brain. Related Species  Greater periwinkle (V. major)
also has similar astringent activity. See also Madagascar periwinkle (V. rosea, following entry). Caution  Do not take during pregnancy.diabetes. In the Caribbean, the flowers are used  as a soothing eyewash. Research  Madagascar periwinkle’s traditional use
as a treatment for diabetes has led to extensive investigation into its properties. Vincristine and vinblastine are powerful anticancer agents, and are two of the most important medicinal compounds found in plants in the last 40 years. Vincristine is a standard treatment for Hodgkin’s disease, and vinblastine for childhood leukemia.

plant growing to 15 in (38 cm). Has lobed, oval leaves and handsome violet, yellow, and white pansy-type flowers. Habitat & Cultivation  Heartsease is native
to Europe, North Africa, and temperate regions of Asia, and has become naturalized in the Americas. It thrives in many habitats, from grasssy mountainous areas to coastal sites, and is also cultivated as a garden plant. The aerial parts are gathered in summer. Parts Used  Aerial parts. Constituents Heartsease contains saponins,
flavonoids, salicylates, mucilage, gums, and a resin. History & Folklore  K’Eogh wrote in his 1735
Irish Herbal that heartsease flowers “cure convulsions in children, cleanse the lungs and breast and are very good for fevers, internal inflammations and wounds.”
Medicinal Actions & Uses  In Western
herbal medicine, heartsease is used as an anti-inflammatory and purifying herb and is taken  for skin conditions such as eczema. An infusion  also makes a useful wash for itchiness. Being expectorant, heartsease is used to treat bronchitis and whooping cough. The plant’s established diuretic action makes it useful for treating rheumatism, cystitis, and difficulty in passing urine. Research  Recent research has found that
heartsease has potential anticancer properties. It promoted programmed cell death (apoptosis) and inhibited blood vessel growth (angiogenesis), both important anticancer effects. A clinical trial in children with asthma found that heartsease syrup helped to control dry irritable cough alongside prescribed medication for asthma. Self-help Use  Hives, p. 303.

Europe and Asia, sweet violet is a common wayside plant also found along roadsides and in woodlands. The flowers and leaves are collected in spring, the root in autumn. Parts Used  Flowers, leaves, root. Constituents  Sweet violet contains phenolic
glycosides (including gaultherin), saponins (myrosin  and violin), flavonoids, an alkaloid (odoratine),  and mucilage. History & Folklore  In classical myth, sweet
violet was associated with death, but classical physicians also knew it as an effective emetic and cough remedy. The 17th-century herbalist Nicholas Culpeper stated that: “All the violets are cold and moist while they are fresh and green, and are used to cool any heat or distemperature of the body either inwardly or outwardly.”
Medicinal Actions & Uses  Sweet violet
flowers and leaves have a gentle expectorant and demulcent action and they induce light sweating. They are often used as an infusion or syrup for treating coughs, chest colds and congestion. They are used in British herbalism to treat breast and stomach cancer. The root is a much stronger expectorant and, at higher doses, is em

It is no wonder EVE was deceived in the Garden, we cannot blame her. For even today the
enemy within is deceiving us. Of course, the most e vil and mad scientists of all recorded history
(at Fort Detrick) never missed an hour of work or a  paycheck and continued on as usual. While
this is going on, Establishment politicians from th eir United Nations (UN) center, send out teams
of inspectors to make sure other nations do not dev elop and use Biological Warfare Weapons. These very clever and deceptive Establishment Polit icians play by a different set of rules than
others are allowed to play by. Heads I win, tails you lose
HUMAN EXPERIMENTAL ANIMALS  These Mad Scientists, using Human fetal DNA materia l, produce new bacterial and viral
infectious agents. They use and alter the DNA mater ial from deadly bacteria and virus to
successfully escape known antibiotic and antiviral treatment procedures. This meets four of their
objectives:
1. To obtain additional taxpayer funding and enslaveme nt
2. To reduce the world population. (Population Act of 1981)
3. To further plunder Americans by their relief organi zations: Red Cross, Feed the Starving,
Save a Child Campaign, etc..
4. To give credibility to their dedicated diabolical s cientific endeavors. When these new genetic altered biological weapons a re ready, they use various segments of our
population for their "Controlled Studies." This has  gone on in America since the early 1800s. The 1930s Tuskegee Syphilis Study on Blacks and the  smallpox and typhus epidemics of the
American Indians are examples of this highly develo ped skill of the Establishment. Also, the
various epidemics of Tuberculosis (TB) used during the last 150 years. When America took the Philippine Islands from Spain, General Arthur MacArthur, father of
General of the Armies Douglas MacArthur of World Wa r II fame, was ordered by the political
establishment to inoculate the general population o f the Philippines with live smallpox vaccine. This killed more people than the previous smallpox epidemics. Also, in 1950 the U.S. military
experimented on Eskimos and Indians with radioactiv e drugs. FIRST SUCCESS
The mad scientists at the National Cancer Institute  (NCI) and World Health Organization
(WHO), who had taken over the U.S. Army’s Biologica l facility at Fort Detrick, Maryland,
finally had the success the U.S. Government spent s o much of your Tax Money on. AIDS — IMPOSED GENOCIDE! There is absolutely no scientific evidence that thi s laboratory engineered virus was present in
Africa before the World Health Organization descend ed upon these hapless people with their
deadly AIDS-laced vaccine. The AIDS virus did not c ome from Africa. It came from Fort
Detrick, Maryland, U.S.A.
WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION
"INVENTED" AIDS
It is a mind boggling revelation, which has been al leged from the very beginning of the AIDS
fiasco, to realize that AIDS is a diabolical, labor atory contrived plague, that was imposed upon
society by design and plan! The evidence is clear, the Government of the U.S.A. has no intention
of protecting American society from AIDS! HITTING THE TARGET  The Mad, Mad scientists at the NCI and WHO have so perfected their Man Made Bacteria and
Virus to the point of being able to select which pa rt of the human body they want to destroy and
what type of human cells they wish to target. AIDS was just one such achievement — to destroy
the immune system "T" cells. Although it was their first success, it was certainly not their last. Now they have MAD COW, man made Biologicals, to use  against the brain. They also have
EBOLA for liver and other organs. This Biological w as first tested on the American Indian
Children, and later on natives in South America. CANCER
Recently, one of their most accomplished Biological  Targeted areas is the Human Pancreas. By
destroying the one part of the pancreas they can in crease the incidence of Diabetes. By
destroying another part of the Human Pancreas they have been able to produce a very rapid type
of Cancer that will take a person’s life within fou r to 6 months. This is so devastating, there is no
treatment possible — and none intended. CANCER VICTIMS
In short, the cancer victims of today face the Esta blishment enemy within, who are relentless and
determined to Plunder and Kill you at any cost. ‘Fa lse Hope’ is not my objective. To be realistic,
we have two enemies, CANCER and the ESTABLISHMENT. Of course there is HOPE, you
must have Pancreatin and other Metabolic Nutrients to treat your Cancer properly. However, you
must use discernment in obtaining it, and be aware of the multitude of Con-Artists who make
claims for their products. Legally, you must allow the Orthodox Physician to treat your tumors. Remember he is not allowed to treat your Cancer, no r is he qualified to do so. DO NOT TAKE
ANY VACCINATIONS. This is the standard deceptive way you are given th e Establishment’s
Biological Warfare infections. REMEMBER
There will never be a CURE for Cancer until the Est ablishment can accomplish their objectives
by permitting it. Their primary goals are money and  control. What big conglomerate will get the
blessings of the Big Establishment? Nothing happens  on the world scene that is not planned and
designed by The Big Establishment. NOTES ON CANCER VICTIMS
After 30 years of planning Metabolic Programs for s ome 33,000 Counselees and developing the
scientific Paradigm for the PROPER CURE AND TREATME NT OF MALIGNANCY, I would
like to share some of the conclusions. First, we fall victim, not only to cancer, but also  to the very clever brainwashing of our number
one ENEMY. The Medical Establishment and the unendi ng barrage of the conspiracy with the
MEDIA and support groups such as the American Cance r Society, the National Cancer Institute, the American Medical Association and an unlimited n umber of organizations that make their
income from the crumbs that fall from the establish ment’s table. Second, our number two ENEMY is the simple metaboli c malfunction of our Pancreas. This is a
minor enemy compared to our enemies number one and three. In our Metabolic Paradigm we
find approximately 20 causes for this failure. All successes and failures of all cancer programs a re accounted for by our Paradigm. It would
not be a truly scientific Paradigm if it did not in clude ALL CANCERS, which it does. Third, our number three enemy is ourselves. It is q uite a shame that Yahweh, God Almighty,
gave each one of us a decent brain (heart in Script ural terms), but we do not know how to use it,
as we have very little, if any practice. We depend upon others (with inferior hearts) to do our
thinking for us. In short, we go a Whoring after fa lse Gods and the false idols put in front of us
by our enemy number one. Those Cancer Victims whom God has blessed with enou gh time (6 months) and who have
awakened from their stupor, in self-defense, figure  things out for themselves. Their discernment
that their Physician, their Medical Community, the Establishment, the MEDIA and their
Government with its multitude of Bureaucracies have  conspired in fraud, plunder and murder
against them, — the SHOCK, is nearly overwhelming a nd devastating to say the least. Fourth, at this point, in self-preservation, the Ca ncer Victim rebels and in righteous indignation,
often going berserk. But at least he realizes he ca nnot trust or depend upon the Orthodox Medical
Community or the Government to protect and help him, but only deceive, plunder and murder
him. Also he comes to the realization that if he su rvives he must "do it himself" and find the
answers in spite of the ESTABLISHMENT’S interferenc e, promises and brainwashing. Fifth, in this state of abandonment, the Cancer Vic tim in ignorance and desperation becomes
vulnerable and prey to the other vultures — the Alt ernative Medical Community. The alternative
medical community is composed of the most skilled C ON-MEN and CON-WOMEN in our
civilization, falsely deceiving, like the Orthodox,  that they have the answer and that they are
persecuted scientists and promoters of truth. These  despicable creatures would put ol’ P. T.
Barnum, Wm. Rockefeller and Barney Cornfield to sha me; their techniques of deception are
superb. Many of these creatures also deceive themse lves and are pathological liars and
psychopaths. The remainders are ignoramuses. Somewhere along the line, the Cancer Victim turns t o Almighty God and asks for deliverance,
healing and help. When God sends help, like placing  this booklet in front of their eyes, they
refuse to accept it, spitting in the face of God, b laming God for their condition and finally
turning from God
