Introduction: The information presented in this book has changed and/or saved the lives
of friends, family and the many other people who I have shared this with since 2004. It is
relevant to athletes, health enthusiasts, anyone who has a health challenge and to everyone
who wants to prevent future problems. If you are interested in knowing how to stay
healthy, lose weight, have more energy or if you have any other specific health goal then
this is for you as the principles shared here are universal and if properly applied, will serve
you very well.
At the time, going to the gym seemed like a good idea. I thought that getting strong,
healthy and disciplined might be a step towards digging myself out of the hole I was in, but
after a few months of overly-intense exercise, my already abused and undernourished body
waved a white flag and chronic fatigue set in. I was in the library at a Thai Monastery whilst
doing a meditation retreat when I picked up a book on chronic fatigue and that’s when it
first dawned on me that this wasn’t just going to go away by itself. A few days later I came
down with Dengue fever, leaving me underweight and even more fatigued, this was made
worse by water fasting which was my attempt at kick-starting my digestion (my body
couldn’t even absorb watermelon!). After some time in hospital back in the UK, I began
learning more about nutrition, but with the learning came an almost equal measure of
confusion as it became obvious that most experts disagree about what the ideal
diet/protocol should be. My trial and error approach gave varying results and I eventually
settled upon a raw-food diet (un-cooked fruits and vegetables and their juices), but here
again, there was and still is, fierce disagreement even in this area. For example, some
people insist that high fruit intake is best, while others recommend low fruit intake.
Almost 2 years on and still underweight and fatigued, my leg was broken in an accident
whilst helping to renovate a house (ironically, brain-fog and lack of short-term memory
caused me to forget that the ‘safety’ railings were not fixed properly) and my determination
as a healthy raw-foodist meant that I even refused painkillers. Two days later there was
another trip to hospital, this time because of breathing problems caused by blood clots in
my lungs, I was diagnosed with 2 blood disorders which cause abnormal clotting
(haemophilia and thrombophilia – which I later discovered are just symptoms of acidity
whereby acids prevent the liver from making the right clotting factors).
So, despite all my efforts, my health had hit an all-time low and I was on blood-thinning
medication (Warfarin/aka rat poison! And having my blood tested every day as my doctor
couldn’t stabilize my fluctuating blood viscosity/INR), with a broken leg, whilst still fatigued
and underweight from the previous illness! This was actually the least of my worries as my
main concern was the constant, crushing brain fog and feeling of being dazed. Anyway,
whilst on crutches, I heard in my local health food store about a talk on live and dry blood
analysis, the work of Dr Robert O Young and his ‘alkaline diet’ theories.
So, I enthusiastically hobbled along and was extremely encouraged by what I learned. It
was the missing link that I’d been searching for and answered my question of why so many
nutritional and alternative approaches to health just don’t work very well. The speaker
explained why many so-called health-foods and superfoods are actually not very good and
why most diets out there are based on a false premise and lack of understanding of how the
human body functions. How can you know the right diet if you don’t understand the body?
The thing which I found most exciting was that the blood analysis demonstration (which I
explain in detail on page 99) gave positive confirmation that these new theories are correct
as blood microscopy can show if a diet, supplement or lifestyle really works or not as the
blood never lies. So I booked a consultation and the lady who did the test was able to pick
up on my symptoms and also highlight the effects of my current diet choices. She admitted
that she was shocked at my results and that mine was the worst blood sample she had ever
seen (and actually in the ten years since training, I have only ever once seen blood that
bad!), which was genuinely reassuring given how terrible I felt as it categorically proved, to
me anyway, that my severe discomfort was not psychological. It was thrilling in a way
because now there was something tangible to target and the tools were given to me to get
myself into balance and beyond!
She informed me about what steps could be taken to improve my situation and within
weeks, or even days, more progress was made than had been made with all my years of trial
and error. Sweet fruits and raw fruit juices had been my fix since quitting caffeine and
chocolate but all physical sugar cravings vanished and my energy levels were already
improving. My doctor allowed me to have the cast taken off my leg 2 weeks early and my
warfarin meds went in the bin, so that I could fly, still very underweight, to California and
train with Dr Young on the next available microscopy training course.
Since training in 2004 I have witnessed results which show that Dr Young’s theories about
the body are correct and that his dietary recommendations are perfect for anyone wanting
to easily maintain or improve the functioning of their body. My doctor hasn’t heard from
me in over ten years. The last trip to hospital was just to get confirmation that my ‘lifelong
genetic blood disorders’ no longer exist, but the doctor glazed over when I said the reason
for my recovery was green juices and alkaline water. Colds or flu are a distant memory and
my health continues to improve with each year that passes. Health is much more than just
the absence of symptoms and having your health is one of the biggest freedoms a person
can have.
What we eat and drink directly impacts the health of our blood and I have looked at blood
profiles of people on the Atkins-diet, low calorie diets, low-fat diets, high-carb diets and the
only nutrition program which I have seen to consistently produce perfectly healthy blood is
the one detailed in this eBook. The most important thing to understand is that the body is
only as healthy as the blood, not least because blood-cells actually transform into and
therefore become…body cells. For instance, when an eye, skin, bone or muscle cell dies, it is
replaced by a blood cell, through a special process of transformation.
The food we eat is digested and the nutrients or elements in the food are turned into red
blood cells. These blood-cells then become new body-cells, so we quite literally are only as
good as the food we eat (and also the thoughts we think, but more on that later). This is
the only program I know of which focuses on using food to build strong blood and as you
will learn that it is ridiculously simple and easy to create healthy blood as the four main
ingredients are so widely available. So it is my wish to share this information with anyone
who will listen as there are so many people out there who have been unable to get the
results they deserve simply because of being sold the wrong information and who, to make
matters worse, have often been labelled as hypochondriac, orthorexic, or obsessive by
friends, family or medical professionals. Luckily this was never too much of a problem for
me but it can be very isolating when people are told, or it's implied, that their issues are all
in their head.
People often spend a fortune on supplements and feel little or no change – and I am in the
position to be able to explain why these supplements don’t work and why, in many cases,
they are harmful or at least contain harmful ingredients. It is my hope that this information
will affect children, via their parents so that they can grow up eating the best food possible
to support their growth and that they may be spared the many diet/junk food related
physical and emotional health problems affecting so many children today. But anyone,
younger or older will benefit from this information and brilliant health is available to you if
you learn how to apply some very simple principles. I have kept things very simple but some
of the words I use may sound a bit scientific (which is strange to say as I myself am not
really interested in, nor am I very good at understanding science). The only reason for
including the theories is for completeness but if you just want to know the bottom line then
skip to the sections about food to eat or avoid.
Why are so many people sick and tired? Dirt, is a big part of the answer. It is our inability
to effectively remove our own internal waste products (mineral/vitamin deficiency and
wrong fuel choice are other major factors). All of our cells create wastes as a natural
byproduct of being alive (all living things go to the toilet, even our cells), it is similar to how
cars produce exhaust-fumes from turning petrol into energy, but many of us consume and
are generating, more pollution than our bodies can remove.
All of our metabolic and dietary wastes are shipped off to the elimination organs to be
removed, a bit like flushing wastes from a house into the sewer. If the elimination organs
are overstretched or are not working properly, then these acidic toxins back-up into the
body instead of being removed. It’s a lot like sewage drains backing up into your house,
ruining the nice carpets and furniture except in this case it’s your cells and organs which are
affected. If left unchecked, this acidity would cause damage (to the brain and organs) - so
the body works overtime to deal with this back-log of acidic ‘sewage’ and keep us alive,
causing a drain on our available nerve energy.
We Feel fatigued, or have any number of other symptoms like headaches, insomnia, and
weight gain. Cravings for caffeine and sugar can result because we feel so sluggish. The
standard western diet (bread, dairy, processed meat, coffee, sugars) is high in acid
forming foods and it often goes hand in hand with (and is a major cause of), constipation,
dehydration, shallow breathing and sedentary lifestyles.
So you have the high acid load, combined with poor elimination meaning that ‘dirt’
accumulates in the body, slowing down and taxing our white blood cells in the process.
Germs, bacteria and yeast are attracted to the resulting stagnation (just as you would have
flies and bugs in your house if sewage backed up) causing us to be more prone to sickness.
This explains why so many people are suffering with poor health.
All food, when turned into energy, creates acidity. An ‘alkaline’ diet will give you the
energy you need for life, but with the least amount of acidic by-product. I will say now
that you are not trying to make the blood alkaline as this is a worry for some, but more on
this later.
An alkaline diet quite simply means reducing the intake of acid forming foods and opening
up and maximising all normal channels of elimination. This means drinking plenty of water
(preferably ionized to recreate what we would be drinking in nature) because water is a
vehicle for carrying acids out via urination.
Doing moderate exercise and ideally use of a sauna so that acids can be eliminated through
the pores of the skin via the sweat. Walking in nature, especially in forests and at altitude
to benefit from oxygen and ionized air. Increasing alkaline foods to provide alkalizing
minerals and eating good healthy fats which the body can use to cancel and eliminate acids.
You feel good when you clean your house and you may also have noticed how well a car
runs after it’s had a good oil change and service. You will also feel good when you flush out
all the acids and stagnation from your body.
The idea is to clear away blockages and let the sewage or old wastes drain away. This diet
may come across as extreme (or at least the ‘cleanse phase’ might, as it focuses on lots of
raw vegetables and juices but the idea is to allow the blood to run clean for as long as
possible as this will benefit the whole body. Fasting has been valued for thousands of years
and feasting on green juices and alkaline foods will achieve similar ends. When you stop
eating so much dense, protein-rich food, even for a short time, it allows the clean-up crews
(our white blood cells) to go in and clean up the mess. But even a 20 or 30% improvement
in your diet, when combined with increased fluid intake, can yield big improvements in how
well the body eliminates wastes.
Herbivores spend their whole lives chewing and eating raw, green plants and turning those
plants into flesh and muscle. Chlorophyll, when eaten, actually creates new blood cells, and
those blood cells become muscle tissue or flesh. I will explain the process later. You will
have noticed that many humans have skipped this process and have taken a short-cut.
People have chosen to eat concentrated plant-matter in the form of meat. It is so much
more convenient to eat the animals than it is to spend years, day-in and day-out, finding
and eating plants for yourself.
The animals go out foraging, grazing and chewing all day……and we then eat the animals.
But, the convenience of using meat as the primary source of nutrition whilst neglecting to
eat the raw leaves, comes at a cost and a western-style meat-based diet is acid forming,
mineral-depleting, constipating, it is less nutritious than eating the plants (I will explain
why), especially when cooked and it means something like 150 billion animals are
slaughtered every year. There are many other very good reasons for reducing or potentially
eliminating animal products (even just for a short while) from your diet altogether. My
main point though is that meat is not a dietary essential.
If you want to avoid animal products altogether, you need to chew/graze and eat what the
other plant-eating animals eat and so that means having a diet centred around green
leaves and plant foods (not just tofu, beans, rice, bananas) and you must consume the
same sort of volumes of food, not a few salad leaves and some carrot sticks (that might be
okay for a pet rabbit on a starvation diet). You can try and get a protein deficiency while
eating a calorie/volume sufficient plant-based diet…. but it’s not going to happen.
We don’t need to graze and chew all day as humans have invented useful tools, so we can
juice or blend the chlorophyll rich plants for convenience (the convenience of juicing also
comes when your health conveniently improves). Once you’ve had your juice, you can also
eat other foods for enjoyment and pleasure. Meat is fine if you feel it is working for you,
but chlorophyll should be the main focus as it is the most important building block of all, for
reasons which I explain further on.
Have you ever seen a horse’s eyes light up when you offer some lush greens over the fence?
Or a rabbit when it raids the vegetable patch, or cows running and skipping out to a field of
grass after being indoors all winter? Look on YouTube if you are not familiar, but they love
it, as do our own cells. We have exactly the same need and craving for chlorophyll and
‘rabbit food’, but we have just lost touch with it.
Our taste buds have been manipulated and lied to by the people who want to sell you
garbage in colourful packaging and we’ve been sold on the idea that food is supposed to be
only stimulating and exciting. We should have become accustomed to the process of eating
leaves and vegetables as a child. I didn’t eat vegetables for the first 20 years of my life, but
now I am addicted to the feeling associated with drinking my greens. You can make juices
taste more appealing if you want to, but for me it’s about how good the juice makes me
feel, you can eat for pleasure and entertainment but you should meet your quota of leafy
greens each day. Wild grasses and wheat/barley grasses are brilliant.
Some estimate that humans would have foraged for pounds of leaves per day, we didn’t
sustain ourselves on a few nuts and seeds. Start small and build up and remember to dilute
juices with alkaline water. People say they were hungry all the time when they went
vegetarian, but being hungry simply will not be an issue if you drink enough raw juice
especially if you get sufficient intake of good fat (we need more fats than animals do as our
brain is larger and we need extra warmth due to our unusual lack of fur – good fats are key
to success. I do however realise that fruitarians can be very successful (some may argue
more successful) on a very low fat diet and I will discuss this option later. If you don’t drink
chlorophyll and oils, your body will send a signal to the brain for the next-best-thing that
contains the nutrients it requires and which is the only food it has a reference for and so it
asks for meat out of habit. Meat-cravings cease when you drink juice and oils as a new and
superior reference for cellular needs being met, is created. The human body is amazing and
can tolerate a lot of rich ‘tasty’ foods, but we have not evolved to eat the western diet and
we cannot separate ourselves from our natural, physical need for large amounts of raw
plant matter.
If you are not willing to eat lots of raw plant matter (leafy veg and good fats), or if you don’t
have consistent access to those foods, then you will probably need to eat meat, dairy or
some meat substitutes (or beans, grains, lentils etc) and utilise what food you have access
to. Do not starve yourself as that is totally counterproductive. Eating ‘bad food’ is better
than malnourishing yourself.
If you do well on animal products and want to just be healthier, stronger, slimmer, then I
would recommend a book called Keto Clarity (A book about the much talked about
ketogenic diet). I talk about this option further on with meal ideas included. It is a diet
which is high fat, low carb, is in alignment with some aspects of the body’s design. It means
eating the fatty cuts of meat, oily fish, bone broth, egg yolks, and non-allergic dairy such as
ghee and raw butter, plus plant fats such as oils and avocado. This is a great diet in some
regards and some good results can be achieved (it even has anti-cancer and antiseizure
effects I believe), but it all hinges on your willingness to let go carbohydrates because carbs
defeat the object of this diet. Fats, once you learn to burn them properly will provide
greater comfort/satisfaction, but without the problems associated with grains and starches.
The body/brain do not require or necessarily want grains or starches and our ancestors
would have thrown lean-cuts of meat to the dogs, and eaten only the fatty meat and brain,
bone etc. Fat has been unfairly demonised. This is not a paleo diet as protein is low on a
keto diet, but fat intake is high. Alkaline principles (greens, alkaline salts etc) and periodic
alkaline cleansing is still advised though. Some people, myself included, really don’t do well
on animal products though and require the energy and electrical conductivity which comes
from high-raw, alkaline living. Any diet including animal products will inherently be more
acidic and therefore mucus forming and also will create an environment in the body which
is conducive to growth of parasites (more of parasites later). Meat, especially pork and fish
is high in parasites.
Whilst I agree that the body can run pretty well on ketones as an alternative source to
glycogen (carbohydrate).…many people also seem to do well on starch based diet such as
‘the starch solution’. The key is this: a high carb diet will only work if dietary fat intake is
low and likewise, a high fat diet will only work if carbs/starches are low. You can’t combine
high fat with high carb as I will explain later (as fat stops the body cells from using or
absorbing the sugar so it hangs around in the blood for too long causing problems) …. this is
one reason why the western diet is a problem as it includes a ‘bit of everything’ and food
combinations are terrible. You need to pick a side and stick to it, or at very least, have fats
at one meal…. then at least four hours later, have your carbs separately. A starch based diet
or any plant based diet for that matter is going to be less welcoming for parasites and will
carry a much lower parasite load and is a good vegan option for some…. I’m trying to give
pros and cons of various approaches so you can make an informed choice. Always avoid
wheat, rye, oats, barley and potatoes, its much better, if you intend to eat significant
amounts of carbohydrate, to eat wild rice, quinoa, millet, buckwheat, sweet potato etc.
Energy: You also need to know how to meet your energy needs. Animals in the wild don’t
get fatigue or slumps in energy, partly because they are getting electrons or electrical
energy from the air, sun, earth and from their raw food. We are designed to get electrons
from air, water, the earth and sun…. our skin is a solar panel. So, stale air, rubber soled
shoes and polyester clothes, stored water and habitual use of sunscreen (I will talk more
about sun exposure later) all affect our energy levels. People live out their lives like a
battery which won’t hold any charge.
Absorption: To maximize and speed up the healing of the GI tract (which is one of the
main objectives of this program) and for improved absorption of your food, it is good to go
onto a ‘baby-food’ diet for a while and blend/juice (or thoroughly chew) as much of your
food as possible, into a liquid state. Spring/Fall time is a good opportunity for this kind of
thing. The small intestine is important because unless it is working properly, we cannot
absorb our food. It is basically the equivalent of the root system of a plant or tree and it
needs to be free from damage. But things like tea, coffee, sugar, undigested meats, dairy
products, all cause congestion and can potentially harm this region.
These days especially when so many people have digestive issues, I often hear people say
that they switched to a healthy diet yet they still felt tired…. but it’s not just what you eat
that determines your level of health, it’s what you are able to absorb which matters.
Juicing and blending allows the important and delicate tissue in the small intestine to
recover from the damage caused by acidic food and drink, thereby improving absorption.
Juices provide concentrated nutrients so that you can make up for the years of poor
absorption. Juicing also saves you having to chew each mouthful of food 50-100 times.
Digestion takes place in the mouth, not the stomach (more on this later) and so food must
be liquefied if it is to be absorbed. Cleansing using fruit only can be powerful as fruit has
strong cleansing properties and I will cover this in detail. Only once the GI tract is clean will
a person have a chance of succeeding long-term on a fruit based diet (if that is their goal).
Fruit will ferment in an unclean GI tract.
A vegetable juicer is an incredibly useful tool, especially when dealing with tough, fibrous
raw vegetables. Getting a water ionizer is a really good idea too as it will purify and then
add electrons to the water. Water in nature has an electrical charge but this is lost when
water is stored in reservoirs and transported through pipes into our houses. You are
encouraged to centre your diet on plant foods (and especially chlorophyll), green juices and
smoothies, essential oils such as hemp seed oil, minerals including a good quality salt (Real
Salt or Himalayan salt).
You can still eat meat and so on, but you could try going alkaline for a while and then let
your body decide if it still wants as much animal protein. You can get the benefits of a
healthy balanced diet whilst still eating meat, especially if you are cutting out wheat,
processed dairy, sugars, bad oils etc., but for the absolute best results you would go 100%
alkaline at least for a while, especially if you have a health challenge. Most people find that
after letting their blood run clean for a week or so, that they experience a quality and
quantity of energy which they have never felt before and decide that they want to explore
this further. But anything you do to improve elimination of acidic wastes constitutes an
alkalizing lifestyle and the more wastes removed, the better you will feel.
Tips: Reduce or eliminate altogether: tea, coffee, alcohol, chocolate, sugars, sweets (haribo
etc.) processed carbohydrate/starches, biscuits, pastries, pasties, breads, cakes, donuts,
icecream, cream, cheeses, milk, cereals, peanut, cashew, pistachio, corn, fast food, cola,
processed food, ready meals, crisps, ketchup, mayo, jams, marmite, vinegars, yeast,
mushrooms, brown sauce.
Avoid routine eating of sweet fruit, unless you are fruitarian. Otherwise it will ferment in the
GI tract and the high sugar content of modern hybridised fruit will cause problems.
Increase: Fresh air, being in nature, walking, movement, exercise, sleep, rest, relaxation,
meditation, positivity, optimism, clean ionized water, good salt (the human body contains a
pound of salt), omega 3, 6 and 9 oils, sprouted seeds and microgreens (these are the best
sources of nutrients), avocados, almond/hemp milk, salads, lemon, lime, tomato, cucumber,
ginger, herbs, alkaline fruits and vegetables. If you continue eating starches then quinoa,
buckwheat, millet, sweet potato are good – but don’t eat fats in the same meal as starches
(this causes weight gain, yeast and blood-sugar issues). Aim to make 80% of your plate
alkaline.
Selective use of animal products if you are still choosing to include them; Fatty meat, organ
meat, bone, oily fish, egg yolk, ghee, raw butter.
Importance of pH balance: The next 3 pages are
slightly more ‘heavy going’ but I ask you to please
push through and read on because I explain the
cause of 10 or more of the most common
symptoms that people have, thereby removing the
fear and mystery surrounding them.
The acid/alkaline balance of the blood is a lot like body temperature in that it can only
move/fluctuate within a very narrow and tightly controlled range. The pH of the blood is
slightly alkaline, 7.365 if you are interested and the body makes constant subtle
adjustments to keep it right where it needs to be. These adjustments could be likened to
how we sweat to cool down or shiver to warm up in response to environmental
temperature changes. Many things threaten to alter blood pH including diet, emotions
and environmental pollution – to which the body must respond. Due to the sheer volumes
and variety of acids to which we are exposed, it is very difficult for the blood to ever
become too alkaline and maintaining a properly balanced pH almost exclusively involves
the body using lots of clever strategies for eliminating acids. Ironically, people with blood
which is too alkaline, are suffering from an over acidic body and in this case the blood is
dumping alkaline minerals into the blood to compensate.
In a similar way to how the human body is able to resist the constant force of gravity, we
also have many mechanisms in place for dealing with the constant and ongoing presence
of acids to which we are exposed from food, metabolism (just creating and using energy
creates acid) and our environment, to stop them disturbing the overall alkalinity of the
blood.
Elimination organs expel these acids via urine, bowels, sweat and even by exhaling acidic
gasses (Co2) through respiration. The body also produces baking soda /sodium bicarbonate
to alkalize and neutralize these acids and in fact our blood is salty because salt is used to
make sodium bicarbonate which is our main defence against acid. The body will even use
omega 3 and 6 oils to buffer acids. Nature intended us to have fully-functioning elimination
organs and for us to be eating healthy food full of good fats and alkaline minerals, so that
when we occasionally become too acidic, the body can remove any excess and draw upon
alkaline reserves when needed.
But we consume far too much acid food and drink including sugar, processed grains,
poorly combined meat, processed dairy, tea, coffee, to name a few and we generally
consume far too little alkaline foods such as vegetables and especially vegetable juices. We
also don’t drink enough water (nor the right kind of water!) which is the main vehicle for
carrying acids out in the form of urine and sweat. Stress, constipation, shallow breathing
and lack of exercise further compound the problem. The body’s capacity to deal with
temperature extremes has limitations and so does its capacity to remain pH balanced. Like I
said above, it should be that the body makes subtle adjustments to the pH levels, but for
most people the acidity levels are so extreme that more drastic strategies must be
employed by the body. Just imagine if acids spilled into the blood unchecked. Pouring toxic
waste into a river would affect those downstream and in a similar way, acids in the blood
would harm the brain and other vital organs.
Every person has specific, genetically predisposed avenues for eliminating those acids
which get retained when regular elimination is overstretched. The body utilizes one or
more of these emergency strategies for dumping excess acids:
Bones: If alkaline mineral reserves are low, the body will pull alkalizing agents such calcium
ions and sodium from the bones, or magnesium from muscles to buffer the acid. This can
cause people to lose bone density through calcium loss and have weak muscles (the heart is
a muscle) through magnesium deficiency. Osteoporosis is perceived as a disease which
‘attacks’ the bones, but it is really just the body trying to maintain alkalinity under difficult
circumstances. It can’t be reversed with calcium supplements, you need to balance pH and
stop or drastically reduce the intake of acids (especially phosphoric acid from meat) which
can leach calcium from the bones.
Fat: When people gain weight it is largely because acids are being dumped, in purpose
made fat deposits - a bit like fly-tipping rubbish or like sweeping the problem under the
carpet (hence why fat from liposuction clinics is black/brown with acids and toxins). The
body can only process so much acid in a day. Any excess is stored away to process at a later
date, somewhere that it won’t cause immediate harm. Naturally slim people who don’t
have the ability to build lots of fat-cells must dump the crystallized acids elsewhere and
often get acids accumulating in the joints and tissues. If you want to lose weight you
should never restrict calories or volume of food – you need to eat lots of food to obtain the
nutrients required for health but it must be healthy food. Once the acid has been
detoxified and as long as your diet isn’t high in sugars, the body releases it. There is no
avoiding this – calorie restricting diets, low-fat diets or synthetic protein-shake diets, only
serve to acidify the body and starve it of vital nutrients. This results in imbalanced
hormones and body chemistry, so you just pile on the weight at a later time. You need to
eat fats, but they must be healthy fats. The body uses fat to buffer/neutralize acid, balance
hormones and to build healthy cells – and so eating plenty of fats is the key to healthy
weight loss (more on this in the FAQ section)
Joints and stones: The body will take acids which are in a liquid state and turn them into a
less-dangerous solid mass using your fats and vital minerals such as calcium, (which can be
seen in the live blood analysis document). These crystallized acids get thrown out to the
extremities like hands, feet and to the joints, away from vital organs. Hence why people
get acid crystal deposits in joints causing types of arthritis, gout and also noisy, clicking
joints.
Skin problems: Many skin problems are caused by acids being pushed out through the skin
(skin is the largest elimination organ). Body odour is also caused by the body expelling acids
and toxins via the skin.
Mucus: An excess of mucus is caused by the body attempting to eliminate acids. Like
cholesterol, mucus is slippery and sticky, it traps acid and tries to carry it out of the body.
But over time mucus builds up inside the digestive tract and clogs the small and large
intestines. Mucus is a vehicle for eliminating excess acids and the common cold is often
nothing more than your body forcing you to take to your bed for a few days so that it can
clean-house. Hippocrates was misquoted - he actually said “if you feed a cold you will have
to starve a fever”. In other words, if you have a cold, you should fast on water or juices and
allow the body to purge itself of poisons. When you do this, you will recover more quickly
and more fully. “feed a cold, starve a fever” is a misquote.
Haemoglobin: the body will even sacrifice haemoglobin (the part of your cells that holds
oxygen) to buffer acid and then people get wrongly diagnosed with anaemia and are given
iron tablets. Chlorophyll is what’s really needed
The body will always do its best to keep a lid on things, but as I will explain there are so
many knock-on effects of an acidic diet that sooner or later the body becomes
overwhelmed.
Even before the body gives way to illness, this constant battle to defend against acids (and
severe lack of electron intake) requires so much nerve energy that you need to sleep more
and don’t feel refreshed when you wake, you need coffee just to get through the day and
are addicted to sugar – which gives you a quick boost but only makes the crisis worse.
So hopefully you can now see that what we perceive as a disease is really the body
attempting to maintain alkalinity. The body is not malfunctioning. Yes, the above
symptoms may feel uncomfortable, for example you may not like being overweight, but
each and every fat-cell is keeping the acid away from your brain and organs. The fat is
literally keeping you alive.
Can you now see the futility of suppressing the symptoms of acidity? Cholesterol is a
protective response to acid so why suppress it with dangerous acidic drugs whilst ignoring
the cause? This is why cholesterol suppressing drugs lead to health problems – the liver is
making that cholesterol for a good reason. Or if an organ gets sick – just chopping off a bad
part or removing the whole thing instead of removing the cause and allowing the body to
carry out repairs.
Here is just a quick look at a few of the many symptoms of acidity and an electron deficient
diet: caffeine/sugar addiction, blood sugar imbalances, fatigue, headaches, PMT,
insomnia, tooth problems, hair loss, Dandruff, poor digestion, constipation, allergies, body
odour, pain (for instance fibromyalgia which is lactic acid being held in the muscle and
tissues), inflammation, Crohn’s disease, arthritis, cysts, cataracts and poor sight, infertility
and many more.
People with a naturally strong constitution (good genes) and good filter organs (liver and
kidneys) are better able to eliminate acids and toxins effectively, despite a bad diet and as a
result may have no symptoms. This can be a double-edged sword as it often causes them to
be complacent about diet. They have inherited good alkaline reserves and their elimination
organs have a strong capacity for processing toxins (can drink lots of beer and have no
hangover the next day). But one day, after years of constantly taxing the body, a symptom
may appear. Even very strong people can get sick as often we have a specific genetic
weakness and acids always go to our weak spots first (an old injury that won’t heal is a
classic example of acids going to a weak spot. If you clean out the accumulations, then that
old sports-injury can heal). If diabetes runs in the family, then the pancreas could be where
a problem manifests. We must not blame genetics alone for disease, as most genetic
predispositions will only become a disease in the presence of over-acidity.
You may feel that you have read enough and just want to know what to do to improve your
health. In which case just skip forward to the part that explains which foods to eat so you
can get started right away. Or you may want to know more detail and in which case read on,
as I will aim to address some great myths in the area of health and biology.
I will say though that it took me some time to get my head around all this information and
even longer to condense and distil it into this book…. so don’t worry if you have to read and
re-read a few times before understanding it fully. It’s not complicated, just different to
what you may have learned about the body.
Yeast and fungus
So the body will always try to compensate for
over-acidity, but if we continue to accumulate
more acid than the body can easily eliminate,
then aggressive microorganisms may begin to
take up residence as they are attracted to a
low pH environment.
When our pH is balanced, our cells only ever serve to supply us with oxygen and all the
other helpful tasks (such as transforming themselves into healthy new body cells) – but
when acids appear on the scene the otherwise healthy cells take this as their cue to switch
roles. Under a microscope many people have yeast in their live blood sample which is the
last place you might expect, or would want, to see it. This is because many people are
acidifying themselves through diet, lifestyle and poor breathing (causing C02 to build up)
meaning that the body’s ‘self-compost button’ is being ‘pushed’ too soon (i.e. the presence
of high levels of acid in the body, normally reserved for when we die, has given the
impression that we are dead and need to be recycled) and the bugs have enthusiastically
begun their work. At this point I want to reassure you that this process is reversible and I
will go on to give you all the tools necessary to remedy this situation, so please, read on, I’m
just getting all the doom/gloom stuff out of the way first.
Once yeast has established itself in a person’s body, alkalizing becomes even more urgent
because yeast/fungus will compound the problems associated with regular dietary acidity.
Yeast is destructive by design - nature designed it that way for fast, efficient recycling, and
it and destroys (eats) everything in sight including protein (this is partly responsible for
protein or meat cravings), vitamins, minerals, even your good fats but its favourite food is
sugar. Yeast has a ferocious appetite for sugar and eats as much as possible. This causes
your blood sugar levels to crash and you feel tired, shaky and often desperate for sugar or
caffeine to try and rescue the situation (when I see yeast in a person’s live blood sample I
ask if they are tired and sugar addicted amongst other things and I almost always get a big
yes in response). Then, like all living creatures, once yeast has eaten the nutrients from
your blood, it adds insult to injury by going to the toilet. After eating, yeast excretes acidic
wastes called mycotoxins (which worsens the existing situation) as a natural by-product of
its metabolism and which makes the environment more acidic and biodegradable (i.e. more
conducive to recycling and reproduction/colonisation). They spew out mycotoxins (like
alcohol) which poison and choke the cells and neurotransmitters even further (ruining, like
a big spanner in the works, so many important reactions in the body in the process) and
create tons of symptoms including foggy thinking, low energy, adrenal stress and all
manner of mood and behavioural problems. If you think about your body as an aquarium
or fish tank, yeast is like an algae or some organism which spoils the cleanliness and pH of
the water. Drinking good water will flush out these wastes, like changing the water in a
dirty fish tank, mitigating the negative effects while you work on getting full control of the
situation.
The yeast will breed and colonize (especially in the colon), and do all it can to tear the body
down as quickly and efficiently as possible. It’s nothing personal, they’re just trying to
recycle you to keep the planet tidy and the soil rich fertile.
So, on one hand you have your own cells transforming and trying to recycle you, and on the
other hand you have your white blood cells working overtime to kill the yeast and to keep
you alive, your body is producing new red blood cells to replace the ones which are
mutating and your body is wasting tons of alkalizing agents to try and restore proper pH.
No wonder you feel tired with such a conflict taking place. This is the hidden battle which
we take for granted and one which can be seen during a live blood assessment. Some
people have such strong constitutions that they don’t even have any major symptoms, but
it’s still a big waste of nerve energy and resources.
Colds, flu and infections: Germs do not ‘invade’ with malicious intent to cause disease, we
have to first send out an invitation. When we are clean and pH balanced, our inner
environment is not conducive for pathogenic microorganisms. When one is acidic and
especially if you already have an internal yeast overgrowth, then germs from the outside
environment will want to join the composting party (to help out their friends). White blood
cells have many important roles but, contrary to the idea that they are like an army of
soldiers defending us against attack, they are only supposed to be a ‘back-up system’
against germs (i.e. a last resort). A balanced pH is our primary immune defence because if
we are alkaline…. there will be no germs in our system to fight because they are attracted to
acid and so the white blood cells can go about their intended task of janitorial work. Most
of us are forcing our white cells to abandon house cleaning duties and help keep the
invading forces under control. Louis Pasteur (the father of vaccines and pasteurization)
who coined the germ theory (the idea that germs and pathogens cause all disease), after a
lifetime of being praised for and profiting from this theory, finally, on his deathbed admitted
that “Claude Bernard was right; the pathogen is nothing; the terrain is everything.”
(Meaning that germs will only get a foothold if we are ‘fertile soil’ for them to grow).
Instead of killing germs (bleach, antibiotics, vaccines etc.) we just need to be pH balanced
and to stop eating so much dead food. Mushrooms, fungus and mites don’t attack living
trees – they just help rot dead, dying or unhealthy ones. Could you imagine if Garbage
collectors would periodically force entrance to our houses to plunder our paper and plastics
– taking bottles out of the fridge before we had finished using the contents? It doesn’t
happen and the idea of it is ridiculous. It is actually the same with the human body. We will
never ever be recycled before our time, unless we send out an invitation or request via our
acidic lifestyle choices. But society is attached to the idea that germs are to blame for our
woes.
The Cycle of Imbalance – how yeast overgrowth causes cravings: Acidic lifestyle (and
especially the use of antibiotics) will cause the initial overgrowth, this in turn creates
nutrient and energy deficiencies (B-vitamins, etc.) which in turn creates fatigue, depression,
muddled thinking and makes one feel generally unwell. This causes a desire, or in many
cases an uncontrollable need for things like processed fat/sugar combination foods, coffee
and stimulants to provide a quick ‘energy’ (adrenaline) fix. These adrenaline-stimulating
foods make you feel better for a brief moment but the sugar fuels the yeast and creates
more acid which further nurtures the yeast, thus perpetuating the problem. The cycle of
imbalance continues, getting worse with each turn of the wheel.
The only real solution is to break the vicious cycle with an infusion of alkalinity and electrons
(there is no better way to turn off the composing that saturating your body with electrons).
You don’t want to kill the yeast because the yeast is your own blood-cells in a mutated form
and you can’t fight the sugar cravings with will-power because it’s mentally/emotionally
exhausting and distracting (its futile anyway as the yeast will just nag until you feed them).
You simply need to change the environment so the yeast cells will die off or revert back to
healthy cells. Yeast can only thrive in an acidic, low energy environment – so all you need to
do is reduce intake of dead food, remove the acid accumulations and flood yourself with
electron saturated living foods.
It is not enough to just take anti-fungal supplements or drugs; you must change the whole
environment. Can you see how pointless it is to prescribe acidic anti-fungal medications for
athlete’s foot or yeast infections? (It’s like mopping up water instead of fixing the leak,
except anti-fungal drugs make matters worse)
The attitude of thinking we need to kill these creatures is the problem. Antibiotics are
supposed to fight infections but can actually cause a yeast overgrowth in the body. This is
because antibiotics kill indiscriminately (biotic means life) and kill both good and bad
bacteria (or technically they don’t kill anything, they cause them to mutate unfavourably
causing secondary infections), so although they may alleviate symptoms of an illness in the
short term, they can and do set up problems for the future. We need homeostasis in the
gut to keep yeast and other germs under control but when this balance is disrupted, yeast
and other bacteria can spread from the gut into the blood and soon after finishing a course
of antibiotics, people return to the old pattern of picking up germs (coughs, colds, infections
etc.) from other people and from the environment. This is a part of why people tend to
become habituated to antibiotics. Natural anti-fungals, such as certain herbs, can be very
helpful in the right context and provided that the root cause is also addressed.
It is worth mentioning that if a person has a yeast overgrowth they will often ironically be
attracted to fungal foods, such as mushrooms, marmite, yeast bread, alcohol. The yeast in
the blood wants to invite its friends along and sends signals to your brain, getting the host
to do their bidding by way of eating certain foods. Details of fungal and anti-fungal foods
will be provided further on.
The list of illnesses associated to yeast and fungus is practically endless. If you have a
significant health challenge you can be fairly sure that yeast is involved. Many doctors now
understand there is a link between cancer and yeast and that cancer is said to be nothing
more than a fungus/mold.
Dr Young also says that the Auto-immune concept is flawed. The body never attacks itself;
what we have here is the white blood cells trying to clear and evict rogue
(mutating/morbidly evolving) cells. This is yet another classic case of self-preservation
which is misinterpreted as the body malfunctioning. This is covered in great detail in Dr
Young’s book ‘Sick and Tired’ which is a must-read if you want to really understand the
background to everything I am outlining.
Where blood is born:
Now you are going to discover an alternative theory about where blood cells are born. That
may well sound strange as it’s something we just take for granted but the current medical
theory may need to be reviewed.
Scientists in Germany decided in 1952 that blood is produced in the bone marrow and this
has heavily influenced the way the way in which nutrition and medicine are practiced. Dr
Young believes that this theory is only a part truth – which unfortunately has been widely
accepted as the whole truth.
The primary blood production site according to Robert Young’s research, is actually the
small intestine which, although controversial, isn’t too hard to believe because the
digestive system has such a high concentration of capillaries and possesses everything else
necessary for blood production. The intestines also have a steady supply of food for making
new blood with, as new cells are made from the foundational elements derived from our
food.
It’s funny because when the bone marrow theory was explained to me at school it never
really clicked. Probably my simple mind thought of bones as white, solid, smooth and that
they don’t look like something you would expect to be responsible for producing billions of
blood cells. And logically speaking, why would the body waste energy shipping nutrients
from food off to the bones when it can be done on site in the intestines? Dr Young says the
body certainly is able to produce blood in bone marrow – but it only does this when it is
starved of nutrients or if the small intestine is damaged and therefore unable to build new
cells.
The body must maintain a certain number of oxygen-carrying Red Blood Cells per sq.
millimetre. There is no tolerance for lack of oxygen, so if a person is starving/malnourished
or the small intestine is damaged/compromised, then the body will pull foundational
elements from the bone for creating new blood-cells with and therefore maintain the
integrity of the blood terrain. It will sacrifice anything in the body to get the stuff necessary
to manufacture cells. It is however a last resort and is far from ideal in terms of overall
health.
The reason that scientists got the mechanics of blood production so very wrong, is that
when they were trying to find out where blood is produced their experiment was conducted
in such a way that if gave totally misleading results.
Rabbits and pigeons were used in the experiments and food intake was restricted in order
to deliberately cause starvation. Because no food was being ingested with which to create
new blood, the animals went into preservation mode and began making blood cells from
the bones. When the scientists did their tests they could clearly see blood cells being
produced in the bone marrow and so concluded that bone is the primary blood production
site.
The old bone- marrow doctrine has caused a mentality which distracts away from the real
efforts which people need to be making with diet and lifestyle. If people understood blood
cells, the building blocks of the body, are made in the gut, would they really eat all the junk
food they are told is ‘okay in moderation’? And when they get sick would they believe their
diet was not the main factor and that they should have a pill or some surgery as the
remedy? I believe not. Eventually the correlation would be made that junk food=junk
cells=junk body. Or great food=great cells=great body and the main focus would be on
finding the main ingredients required to make the best cells possible. At the moment we
are told junk body=bad genetics or ‘a virus’
The small intestine: Now that you understand that blood cells are actually born in the small
intestine, (and even if your current beliefs won’t allow you to entertain this particular
theory) you really want to know how to care for your small intestine and to provide the
right nutrients for high-quality cell production. So here you have a cross-section of the small
intestine, the blood-cell production hub. The small intestine is lined with millions of villi and
micro villi which are those tiny finger-like structures you see in the picture. Our food goes
into the small intestine and the villi ‘catch’ the food and use the nutrients to make new cells
with.
Humans have a long intestinal tract and the villi increase the surface area for maximum
absorption of nutrients from complex fibrous
vegetable matter over a long period of time. By
comparison, carnivores have a short, smooth
intestinal tract with much smaller surface area.
Our intestinal villi act much like the root system of a plant or tree; Soaking up nutrients
from our food and drink and turning these nutrients into blood, just as plants soak or pull
up nutrients and water from the soil. Just imagine if the roots of the plant got damaged or
destroyed– the whole plant would suffer or die. If our villi are damaged or inflamed the
entire body will suffer as we are less able (or totally unable) to absorb nutrients from food.
The biopsy picture on the left shows a cross-section of
Healthy villi. They are intact which results in excellent
absorption of nutrients and proper blood production. The
thousands of purple dots are erythroblasts being produced.
These cells go on to become muscle cells, brain cells, skin
cells, bone cells.
Unless a person were literally starving like the bunnies in the experiment (or the intestine is
very damaged), this ‘wasting’ process will take place over a long period of time and to a
greater or lesser degree according to how nutrient-poor the diet is and the degree of
damage to the small intestine. For many people the damage is not extreme, but is enough
to compromise absorption to some degree, resulting in lower than optimal health. This
wasting process can still apply to someone who is overweight because the weight being
carried is just fat stores full of acids. It is the nutrient reserves which get plundered.
The purpose of this information is not to scare you but just to highlight how it is within
your control to heal and restore the small intestine which will improve the health of your
entire body. The food giants have lied to us and we have (or our taste buds have) allowed
people who care only about profit to make our nutrition choices for us and people are in a
lot of pain as a result. It is time to take the reins and reclaim control.
I will explain how to heal the small intestine, pay back any nutrients that have been
borrowed and which foods are required on an ongoing basis in order to build healthy cells.
Intestinal health is pivotal for the building and maintenance of your entire body and I will
give you the knowledge required for achieving this.
But first, while I am being controversial I thought I would include this next bit of important
information…. (if at a glance it sounds to ‘scientific’ and boring then as always, skim forward
to another section and come back to this if and when you want to. I’m including all these
theories for completeness and because some people are fascinated and/or really want
understand all the details so they can connect dots and build a complete picture)
The truth about the stomach: The prevailing theory is that food goes into the
stomach and it is digested with stomach acid and enzymes. The theory I’m about to share is
a bit different and as a result it may be difficult for some people to swallow or even
entertain. But it makes so much sense when you think about it and when you follow this
lifestyle for long enough, your personal experience in terms of how you feel, becomes the
only validation you will need for yourself to be satisfied. You will think to yourself, well if
the theory is wrong, then how come I feel so good even when violating the ‘laws of
digestion’ (with practices such as drinking alkaline water and alkaline salts) and why am I
getting measurable increases in strength, fitness and health? I will also mention in another
section two major reasons (the elephants in the room pg 34) why the current stomachacid
theory must be wrong or at least incomplete. But, as this video shows, even if we are to
believe in the current enzyme theory of digestion, food must still be chewed or blended
otherwise lumps of undigested food will pass into the small intestine which is the main
message here. Which ever theory we believe, the idea is to prevent clogging of the villi and
putrefying of the colon https://youtu.be/HFUgzjU2_Vo
Personally I was an open door where Dr Young’s theory was concerned, as in my early
twenties I read books on enzyme theory but I found contradictions, inconsistencies and just
a strong sense that something was lacking.
So, the most important thing for you to know in order to begin to understand the true
function of the stomach is that sodium bicarbonate is very important in the body. You have
phosphoric, sulphuric, nitric, hydrochloric, lactic, and citric, plus many other strong acids in
the body, all threatening to burn our delicate tissues and compromise the alkaline balance
of the blood. One of our main lines of defence is plain old baking-soda (or sodium
bicarbonate) because the body uses this alkalizing substance to cancel and neutralize acids.
This is why the blood is salty. The body takes sodium, chloride, water and carbon-dioxide
from the blood and makes sodium-bi-carbon-ate. The problem is that for every molecule of
bicarbonate produced, an equal amount of hydrochloric acid (HCL) is also made, as a waste
product.
With that in mind, the role of the stomach (besides making bicarb for the blood and tissues)
is to secrete sodium bicarbonate, directly onto your food to help raise its pH (up to 8.4)
before it reaches the small intestine, so that the body can absorb it and turn it into new
blood cells (as acidic food simply cannot be absorbed in the small intestine) but as a
consequence of making sodium bicarbonate, an equal amount of hydrochloric acid (aka
stomach acid) is produced as a by-product. This, unfortunately is where all mainstream
doctors and scientists miss the boat as they believe the stomach makes HCL acid to digest
food and that the stomach should have a low pH. Unfortunately, as with the pigeon and
rabbit starvation-experiments mentioned in the previous section, the experiments to
determine proper stomach pH were conducted in a way which gave misleading results.
Again, it was German scientists in the 1950’s who were to blame (maybe even those same
scientists who decided blood is produced in the bone). The scientists looked at the stomach
pH after the alkaline mixture of food and bicarbonate had exited the duodenum and all that
was present, was the stomach-acid wastes. This led them to conclude that the body uses
stomach-acid to digest the lumps of un-chewed food into a mushy-mess so that it can be
absorbed by the small intestine.
I was told at school that the food we eat goes down to the stomach, which secretes acid and
then stomach-muscles massage and churn the food, a bit like a cement-mixer I suppose and
this breaks down the lumps of food to make it ready for absorption (and that the sodium
bicarbonate is only applied to this mix just before the entrance to the small intestine). I
remember thinking that it was strange how I had never been aware of a cement-mixer style
situation in my stomach and could feel no muscles contracting there, but anyway.
The reality is that digestion takes place in the mouth, not the stomach. If the food isn’t
liquefied properly by the teeth, any solid lumps will remain undigested. Raw food digests
from the inside out as breakdown begins when the cells are ruptured. This is similar to how
our own cells respond to changes in internal environment as detailed in the section about
germs and yeast and is why fresh juices start to break down or ‘self-digest’ quickly, unless
ionized and stabilized using magnetic fields for example (as with the Green-
Power/Hippocrates juicer), to trick the juice into thinking it’s still alive. So it’s crucial to
rupture the cells of your food and either chew it until it is a liquid/pureed state or even
better, juice or blend your food and then drink it. Saliva is alkaline and you need to mix
your food/drinks with saliva before passing it over to the stomach for further treatment
with bicarbonate secretions.
The stomach-acid (HCL), which again is a by-product of making sodium bicarbonate, doesn’t
have any role in digesting food and it doesn’t even touch the food. Stomach acid falls away
to the gastric pits of the stomach, away from the food so that it doesn’t interfere with the
process of raising the pH of the food so that it may be absorbed and turned into new red
blood cells in the small intestine.
Don’t we need HCL acid to digest meat? The question implies that humans can digest meat,
when actually we can’t digest it very effectively. We can use only about 20% of cooked
meat, the rest comes out in the stool and in the process a large amount of acidity is created
such as phosphoric acid. It is widely understood, even in the mainstream, that meat is
acidifying and is hard on the kidneys. Technically meat should be raw and blended to a
liquid state then you can significantly increase absorption rate…. but I am not
recommending this. Chimps know this and they suck the juices from the meat and spit the
muscle tissue out instead of swallowing it (and in any case, they only eat small amounts for
social reasons). Humans never used to eat so much muscle tissue as we do today, we ate
the fatty parts of the animal. The main issue is eating poorly combined, cooked meat when
the GI tract is already sick and compromised.
A python, for example, who will swallow whole, un-chewed animals has an extremely acid
forming situation to contend with. The carcass will be inside for a week or more, rapidly
fermenting and rotting, like meat left inside a hot, damp radiator. Huge amounts of acidic
wastes and gasses are produced and there are also all the acidic enzymes caused by the
pleomorphic self-composting and breakdown of all that flesh. There is an inflammatory
response within the python, organs swell up, metabolism massively increases and without
the release of bicarbonate into the blood stream the snake would die from acidosis very
quickly. Even the alkaline bones of the prey will dissolve because of the low pH levels (just
as a baby tooth will dissolve in a glass of Cola). This whole process is one of rot, decay and
fermentation – obviously the snake lives like this but it is not something we should aspire
to. We can and should, live according to our alkaline design, if we want to be mentally,
emotionally and physically healthy. More on this later. Meat, needs to be in and then out
(eliminated) quickly, not hanging around in the gut for any time. For humans, HCL
supplements and medications give temporary relief with some GI disorders simply because
they work like drain un-blocker. If a person has many years’ worth of animal protein
residues in the intestinal tract, then the HCL will burn this away giving relief from
symptoms. But, HCL doesn’t discriminate and if it will burn those old animal proteins, then
it will also burn you too…. because your body is made of animal protein! Oxygen based
colon cleansers are far better.
Clumpy blood places increased demands on the heart which is now forced to pump harder
and more frequently in an effort to move things along (also acids can weaken the heart and
all muscles in general) which can mean higher blood pressure. Cardiac problems and blood
clotting can be avoided by restoring the negative charge of the blood. Basically you want to
consume electron rich food such as cucumber, avocado, raw veg, sprouted seeds and
especially ionized water (or at least reduce the intake of strong-acid foods) to restore the
electrical charge of the cells, but more on all that later. Aspirin does also thin the blood, but
does so by exploding cells, a bit like dynamite clearing rubble from a blocked tunnel. And
supplements/superfoods designed to dilate blood vessels for better blood flow are also
missing the point. People think that cooked or spicy food keeps you warm – but the truth
is that good circulation keeps you warm. Raw fruits and vegetables provide electrons
which restore the cells ability to repel, this improves circulation which has the cumulative
effect of making you feel warm. Earthing: This video talks about the importance of getting
bare feet on the earth. We need to absorb electrons through our skin for so many reasons
but especially for keeping the blood flowing properly. Devices are available which allow you
to sleep grounded: http://youtu.be/lY3w8kDn2Eo
Sunlight is also essential – our skin is a solar-panel for absorbing electrons from the sun and
‘sun gazing’ is an excellent way to energize yourself! http://youtu.be/D_ERDxxzvQE
The body runs on electricity: The body requires electrical energy to run
properly. Meat, bread, potatoes don't give us electrical energy and so your body has to
donate its electrons to ionize the food which is part of why you feel tired after a heavy
dinner full of rich food. Raw, alkaline food is amazing as it has a negative charge. Rabbits
have lots of energy and a notorious libido for good reason…. They eat rabbit food not pasta.
We absorb electrons from the sun through our skin, from the air via our lungs and from the
earth by having our skin in contact with the soil/sand or with something conductive which is
imbedded in the earth. Ionized water (or water in its natural state), sprouted living foods,
healthy fats, fruits and vegetables are all ways of ingesting electrons. Tap water has a
positive charge, so drinking dead water will contribute to tiredness and cause you to reach
for the coffee. Most food in the western diet has a positive or plus charge. You want food,
air and water with a negative electrical charge so this means alkaline food, ionized water
and being out in nature. Fasting feels good as there is nothing suppressing or demanding
your electrical Energy (i.e. you stop eating enervating/draining foods for a time) but you
can’t fast forever. It is better to stay high-raw, low protein and low sugar and to eat (or
drink) plants and oils full of electrons. This way you feel light, clear and energized (i.e. you
get most of the benefits of fasting) but whilst still nourishing and building your body.
Overall you end up feeling better than when you fast.
Have you ever wondered why gazelles don't lethargically shuffle along? They absorb
electrons through their hoofs, eyes, skin, and through the many pounds of raw, alkaline,
chlorophyll rich, high-electron content food (they don’t eat 5 pieces of fruit and veg…. they
eat well over 5 pounds of plant matter per day). No rubber-soled shoes, polyester clothes,
sunglasses, smog, Wi-Fi, cell phones, stale air for them. Just pure electrical conductivity.
They are not tired so don't need coffee sugar, processed or cooked food. Why do we think
we need 'a large meal of beans, bacon and sausages'? You can eat that but the body then
has to ionize or add electrons just to eliminate it. It's like draining or robbing your own
batteries. We are (designed to be) like batteries; alkaline and full of electrons. I wish I could
tell you to just go to ‘a major raw food outlet’ and buy ‘superfoods’ such as maca, Goji
berries, cacao and that these foods will give you energy but they won’t. I’m not saying we
can live on just air (well, maybe bretharians but that’s another story) – we need to fuel, and
not starve ourselves. Carbs don’t really provide energy. Fats do, and eating a diet high in
raw greens and plenty of fats (even some animal fats if that works for you) will on balance,
provide all the energy and building materials you need. Being in nature is important too.
Salt is good for providing electrical conductivity.
Negative ions: Pollution and processed foods have a positive electrical charge and rob us of
energy. Vegetables, grasses and healthy mineral salts all have a negative charge. ‘Earthing’
or having bare feet on the earth allows us to discharge positive ions and to receive negative
ions from the earth - being in nature, especially at altitude, allows us to receive negative
ions from the air. All bodily activity and all movement creates a positive charge and so we
need a steady supply of negative ions from food, water, air and the earth.
http://articlesofhealth.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/spark-of-life-negative-charged-ion.html
Foods to avoid: You will notice that the reason to avoid many foods is not because
they are always naturally bad, but because of the way the foods are produced, stored or
processed in today’s modern world. These foods should ideally be eliminated if you have a
health challenge that you want rid of, or if your goal is the best possible health. When
discussing animal products, I am leaving ethics aside and just being objective with regards to
health. Many people don’t want to be alkaline or raw-vegan (or some want to be part-time
vegan/vegetarian) and so I’m offering as many options as possible.
Change the way you eat meat: When healthy, the body can tolerate some meat, as long as
it is properly combined, not eaten in excess and bowels are eliminating regularly. The
source is also very important. Meat is inherently acid forming (nitric, sulphuric, phosphoric
acids) but this is made worse when livestock are fed on stored grains (even organic
livestock). Fungal residues accumulate in the fatty tissue of the livestock and these
mycotoxins are not destroyed by cooking. The term organic simply means no pesticide use,
but it doesn’t guarantee a low fungal load – it is the length of storage time of the grains
which is the issue. Grass-fed is always going to be better.
If eating meat, try to buy organic (this at least means no hormone or antibiotic injections
and no pesticide residues from grains) or grass-fed and eat with some vegetables as the
fibre will help sweep the acidity away and reduce fermentation. Pork is the most acid
forming. Chicken, despite the healthy image, is also acid forming. Chickens do not have a
separate urinary tract and so much of the uric acid (urine) is re-absorbed into the tissues –
hence ‘juicy’ chicken. My advice is to eat small amounts of fatty meat, and eat with some
leafy greens. Do not eat meat with carbs, because this will spoil digestion and will cause
fermentation plus blood sugar issues. If you feel you that you are thriving on a diet which
includes some meat and you are free from symptoms, then maybe you will decide not to
rock the boat and just keep going as you are with a few tactical modifications to your overall
diet. I would just suggest to keep carbs low, eat small amounts of meat maybe every other
day and increase the amount of chlorophyll rich foods plus ionized water. Then just bear in
mind that if you ever feel a change in your health or energy levels or develop some
symptom, maybe consider following a raw alkaline diet for a couple of weeks and see how
that works for you. (Also, an oxygen-based colon cleansing product is a good idea for
anyone eating meat). When you increase the amount of fats and raw greens in your diet,
you will feel nourished and satisfied even without much meat (or even without any meat),
with stable energy levels which last all day long. Remember that historically humans were
successful by eating a diet free from grains, and high in fat. We ate organ meat, brain,
intestines, bone marrow. The fatty cuts of meat were more valuable and the lean cuts were
thrown for the dogs to eat.
Again, parasites are a concern where any animal protein is concerned. Look on YouTube for
videos about rope worms and it may make you think twice.
Approach dairy with caution: Pasteurization and homogenization removes any potential
goodness in the milk due to the heat and pressure involved in the process. Raw dairy is
better in some ways but these days, there may be a real issue with certain microorganisms.
In either case avoid milk, cream, cheese due to lactose (carbohydrate), casein, milk proteins
– all of which can be allergens and high in sugars. Ghee can be a good food as it has had all
the impurities removed. It is easy to digest and is great for people who need energy and
nourishment.
Pasteurized dairy, is very mucus forming which causes clogging and congestion in the body,
especially in the area where red blood cells are formed (explained later). The calcium in milk
is not compatible with the human body (hence why many doctors now say it does nothing
to prevent osteoporosis and does in fact makes it worse). Calcium can be obtained from
green leafy vegetables, green drinks, chard, broccoli, etc. Also, dairy products should be
avoided because of their lactose (milk sugar) content as well as the presence of yeast and
fungus, molds, and their by-products. Dairy cows are fed stored grains and fungal-based
antibiotics, and the fermentation process of cheese and yogurt makes them a real challenge
for the body to deal with. Avoid milk, cheese, yogurt, ice cream.
Eggs: Due to chickens being fed fungal corn, most eggs have a high load of pathogenic
microorganisms. Eggs will always be somewhat acidifying but if you do eat eggs make sure
they are organic/free range (and I don’t mean the supermarket’s interpretation of ‘free
range’), eaten in moderation and with plenty of vegetables. Eggs can be a good option for
people who still want some animal protein in their diet but want to reduce or eliminate
meat, as they do contain some good nutrients. Some say that egg whites are an allergen, so
perhaps just eat the yolks which contain a good array of important nutrients.
Cooked food: You should include at least some raw vegetables in your diet even if it’s only
salad and avocado. Vegetables are alkaline and electron rich, but they become less so when
cooked. Steamed or lightly cooked vegetables are very good, but just avoid really cooking
all the life out of them.
Cooked oils: It really is best to avoid cooking with vegetable oils due to the fact that heat
causes oxidation (oxidized oils are harmful). Only ever use extra-virgin coconut oil or ghee
for cooking as these oils are much more stable and will tolerate cooking temperatures
without oxidizing. Best of all, steam fry your food and then add healthy, alkalizing cold
pressed oil right at the end when it has cooled down a bit.
Sugar: Sugar paralyzes white blood cells for up to 5 hours. When I look at a person’s live
blood and their WBC’s aren’t moving, the first thing I ask is about recent ingestion of simple
sugars. This is one aspect of why so many people get ‘flu’ at Christmas. People get together
and beat their system into submission for several days with alcohol, animal protein and
sugar, so germs which otherwise would not normally be a problem are allowed to go
unchallenged.
Sugar is like jet-fuel for yeast and it is acidifying. However, it would be much better to use
real sugar (organic, otherwise it will contain pesticide residues) than to use artificial
sweeteners. Aspartame for example is produced by feeding toxic materials to e-coli bacteria
– the white powder produced by the bacteria is collected, packaged and then marketed as
this popular low-calorie sweetener. The company that makes aspartame is the same
company behind DDT, Agent Orange and GMO food. Avoid corn syrup, molasses and maple
syrup. Coconut sugar is better as it has an almost neutral pH and is low GI.
Sweet fruit has a lot of sugar (mangos, bananas, pineapples, grapes, oranges, apples,
papaya). Most fruit is genetically hybridised to make it sweeter and is often picked before it
is ripe (for transportation) which means it is more acidic. Fruit may have an alkaline pH/ash,
but the sugar content means that for most people, it acidifies the body. I will say that
different rules apply to people who exclusively eat a fruitarian diet i.e. they eat nothing but
fruit, because when a fruitarian eats fruit, the food doesn’t ferment in an intestinal
trafficjam caused by meat, dairy and grains. Also, they don’t eat much fat and as such their
sugarhandling ability improves and blood sugar levels actually decrease. I will elaborate
more on this in the FAQ section. A fruitarian could certainly do an adapted version of this
program and just include more green juices.
Stored Grains, nuts and potatoes: The problem with grains is the way in which they are
stored. They are stored for so long and in such a way that they begin to ferment and turn
fungal. The fungus is not destroyed by cooking temperatures and has been associated with
many chronic diseases including cancer. Modern crops are also weaker due to human
tampering which makes crops even more susceptible to fungus overgrowth. Wheat, oats,
barley, rye and corn tend to be the most fungal. These also happen to be the most acid
forming grains anyway and so they should be replaced with grains detailed in Section 2.
Many oils such as corn oil and other vegetable oils are also very contaminated.
The same applies to peanuts and cashews. These should really be avoided because, due to
modern farming and storage methods, they are very contaminated with fungus. (Practically
all corn, peanuts and cashews are now contaminated) This is also because the surface of
these foods is soft and fungus easily gets a foothold. Potatoes are often contaminated with
fungus. Sweet potatoes are not fungal though.
Wheat: Scientists took spelt, then caused genetic mutations using a toxic chemical, to
create the modern form of wheat which produces a higher yield crop. It is very harmful and
should be avoided even if you don’t have an allergy. It turns out that wheat was the main
cause of my health problems and it made me feel so depressed and spaced out that I was
using drugs as a means of escape. Wheat has been described as a food which meets all the
criteria of a biological weapon due to the harm it causes to the gut, brain and immune
system.
Cut out the yeast: Baked goods such as yeast breads, cakes and pastries should be avoided.
According to the American Cancer Society, one out of nine American women will develop
breast cancer by age 80. Research links it with the ingestion of baked goods and bakers or
brewer’s yeast. Research also correlates diets containing yeast or fermented breads to gall
stones, kidney stones and arthritis. Also avoid marmite and ‘nutritional’ yeast.
Tea, coffee, chocolate: Tea, coffee and chocolate are all acid forming and contain caffeine
(although there are now ways to reduce the acidity if you are cutting down but unable to
fully quit right away). Decaf tea/coffee is not any better because they use formaldehyde to
flush out the caffeine. Coffee and chocolate are also fermented which most people don’t
realise. Chocolate contains Theobromine which is a strong acid and also contains oxalic acid
which is tough on the kidneys. Raw chocolate seems to be a better option for people
transitioning but despite the claims of it being a superfood – it is best used in moderation.
Chocolate has a lot of nutrients, but also contains a lot of toxins and will tax the adrenals.
So you can use it – but don’t take high doses as recommended by some advocates.
Alcohol: Wine, beer, whiskey, brandy, gin, rum and vodka are the waste product of
fermentation. If you want to drink alcohol then obviously moderation is the key and
compensate with water, good nutrition and edible clay (more on clay later). Beer made with
hops causes ‘man boobs’ and low testosterone in men and will also disturb a woman’s
hormone balance: http://www.lifetwink.com/beer-hops-estrogen-sedation-of-
thepopulation-men-shouldnt-ever-drink-beer/ Clay, charcoal and N-acetyl cysteine can
help protect your body from alcohol if you still intend to drink.
Mushrooms: Mushrooms, algae, and truffles all belong to the family of organisms
responsible for recycling dead matter and they are acid-forming foods (It is best to avoid
fermented foods i.e. kefir, kombucha for the same reasons). You should instead aim to eat
sprouted foods and other high-electron foods (i.e. foods which are bursting with life-
energy). Mushrooms contain mycotoxins which over-stimulate the immune system. Reishi
mushrooms for example are said to ‘boost’ the immune system – but ideally you want your
immune system to be at rest (i.e. if you are cleansed and alkaline, the white blood cells will
just be resting much of the time as there is not much cellular debris or toxins to clear up). If
something is causing white blood cells to be stimulated i.e. rushing about all over the place,
then it is probably toxic and the WBC’s are trying to clear up the perceived threat. But, trust
your feelings and see what really works for you, same with chlorella etc. If you alkalize your
system, then you will have no need for medicinal mushrooms to cure your ills and you will
get all the claimed benefits of mushrooms but without the possible downsides.
Condiments and fermented food: Soy sauce, tamari, mayonnaise, ketchup or vinegar. Aim
to avoid anything which is fermented or contains gluten, sugar, vinegar and regular table
salt. I understand the argument for ‘healthy’ fermented foods but have never yet seen
healthy blood from anyone regularly using Kombucha, kefir, sauerkraut etc. The intended
idea of fermented foods is for indigenous people to make indigestible food easier for the
body to process and for storage purposes too – but it’s much better, if you have the choice,
to just avoid the indigestible foods instead. For instance, fermented grain in sourdough
bread is better than unfermented, yeast bread. If you live in a place geographically where
food is limited, then there is more of an argument for eating certain things, but otherwise it
is best to avoid these acid forming foods and eat fresh, electron rich, live foods. Instead of
sauerkraut, have cabbage juice. Instead of Kombucha, have fresh green juice (it has long
been proven that the best way to achieve healthy gut flora is by providing ‘fertile soil’ or
prebiotics in the form of dark leafy greens) and I would suggest that most people should
avoid dairy, fermented or otherwise. People get perceived benefit from enzymes and
probiotics because these things work like drain-unblocker and the acidic bacteria eat rotten
material in the GI tract, but in the long run there are far better ways of maintaining bowel
health without the acidic consequences. Bacteria and enzymes are habit forming as they
create a cycle of dependence and sooner or later do more harm than good. There are some
interesting discussions online about how ‘good bacteria’ very quickly becomes bad bacteria
in an unhealthy terrain and via pleomorphism transform into all kinds of other strains of
bacteria.

fermentedfoods.htm
Avoid tobacco: To prevent tobacco going moldy, manufactures introduce chemicals (over
3000) like formaldehyde and benzene as a preservative. Raw tobacco (brands like American
Spirit) is not so bad and some say it has health benefits but I would suggest its best to avoid
it. Cigarette papers contain paraffin so do be aware of that too.
Processed food: Try to avoid all processed food. It is normally cooked/pasteurized to death,
loaded with sugar/salt/preservatives, packaged in plastic/aluminium and is generally devoid
of nutrients.
How to restore balance: Until this point, your body may have been in ‘defence
mode’ with much of your available nerve energy and mineral resources being used for
bailing out acids and so the regular house-cleaning, plus the building and maintenance
tasks have been neglected. The great news is the body has a tremendous capacity for
healing, detoxification and regeneration. We just need to provide the right context and tap
into this potential.
The aim, especially if you have a health challenge, is to go into ‘healing mode’ and to
thoroughly clean house. Junk that was swept under the carpet will be cleared out and
nutrients which were borrowed will be repaid (again, raw juices will facilitate this). This
means a change in lifestyle involving diet, exercise, relaxation and rest. Balancing your
thoughts and emotions is important too.
It takes a little while to coax your body out of defence mode as it will only fully let its guard
down and redirect all the troops and resources to house cleaning and construction duties
when you stop eating acid forming foods. As long as you continue to eat acid foods, the
body will keep its guard up at least to some degree (although you can still achieve good
things just by making small improvements to your diet and your natural detox pathways will
improve) and the troops will be kept in their defensive positions. After a short time of eating
only alkaline food, the body feels safe to lower its defences and focus on repairs – it is then
possible to do some very deep healing work. If you then suddenly go and eat steak and
beer you will feel very sick and is really not advisable (I have heard many stories like this,
although not so much with this program as physical cravings are eliminated, its mostly when
people do water fasts) as this would mean catching the body totally off guard and is a real
shock (I can imagine the body thinking what the heck!?)
The human body has only been able to survive or tolerate the standard western diet by
diverting and re-routing (aka wasting and squandering) vital nerve energy and resources to
processing this dense, challenging diet and because our body is permanently braced for
what we throw at it each day. If you go into healing-mode and then suddenly start eating
junk food again, the body is vulnerable and totally unprepared. It would be like removing
the roof from a house to replace old tiles and then suddenly getting a torrential downpour
with strong winds. If you don’t think you can commit to doing a proper cleanse, then
transition slowly until you are confident. And don’t go 100% raw if you haven’t got control
of your attachments to other foods. It is better to go 80% alkaline and be consistent with a
small amount of acid-forming foods to avoid shocking your body with a binge (or with
wedding/birthday/Christmas celebrations) as that is a sure way to age and stress your body.
I would be very happy if I knew you were juicing up raw leafy veggies every day but still
having some healthy cooked foods with a few careful treats. If you can’t juice every day,
then juice at the weekends or whenever you can, just to make sure your weekly intake of
raw juices is high. You can rely on smoothies and salads too as a way of getting more raw
food.
Kill the yeast – Technically you don’t need to kill the yeast. These organisms cannot survive
in an alkaline, oxygen rich environment and so if you alkalize your system the yeast will no
longer feel welcome. It may be helpful to use anti-fungal herbs and supplements in the
short term just to help get the situation under control. Yeast is ‘allergic’ to large amounts of
alkaline vegetable juices. Removing carbs temporarily is a big step in the right direction too.
Restore the charge to your cells – Blood cells need lots of electrons so that they may retain
their negative electrical charge which is what prevents clumping. An alkaline diet along with
alkaline water, sunlight and clean air will supply the electrons required.
Heal the small intestine – The small intestine is to the body what the root system is to a
tree or plant. An alkaline diet will sooth the irritation here and facilitate the repair of
damaged and inflamed tissue.
Fasting/feasting on alkalizing juices, soups or smoothies for days at a time is very helpful. I
encourage people stay on liquids 3, 7, 14 or 28 days or even for 12 weeks or longer to fully
heal and regenerate the small intestine. It is like eating baby-food which requires little
digestion and places minimal strain on the gut.
Supply raw materials - Yet again I am harping on about raw foods. You can’t rebuild a body
with a few big salads. You need to think like a gorilla. Plants contain what we need for
building blood (I will tell you why in just a moment), so buy a juicer (a $20 used juicer from
eBay is enough to get you started), juice handfuls of spinach, kale, parsley, herbs – dilute it
with alkaline water and drink. Most importantly, do not starve yourself. Fasting is a waste
of time if you are malnourished as you tax your adrenals and drain your body’s energy.
Detoxification, building, healing requires energy in addition to daily metabolism.
Ingredient #1: Chlorophyll. So with the knowledge that red blood cells are actually born in
the small intestine and that they are made directly from the food you are eating, it will be
obvious that the quality of your food will have a dramatic effect on the quality of the cells
being born. Even if the small intestine is totally healthy and uncompromised (i.e. even if the
blood-producing infrastructure is intact), it is still really important to be eating foods which
contain the correct building blocks and materials. Otherwise the body must make up the
deficit by taking nutrients from other areas of the body to obtain all the required
ingredients.
So here’s what you need in order to build strong, healthy blood cells:
This fact also eliminates the bone marrow theory – because if nutrients were shipped off
to the bones, as we are told, for the purpose of building blood cells, then again chlorophyll
would be broken down to the point that it wouldn’t build blood any better than anything
else.
You can significantly increase blood volume by taking a tablespoon of liquid chlorophyll such
as World Organic, Dsouza’s, or the pH Miracle brand, in 4 oz. of ionized water, every hour of
the day. If you don’t eat/drink greens the body must improvise and ‘Jerry-rig’ new cells out
of whatever materials are available. In this case you may have lower quality blood cells
which can’t hold oxygen as effectively and because blood cells become new body cells (skin,
eyes, brain, muscle) your body won’t be realising its full potential because the human body
can only be as good as the blood with which it is constructed. In the absence of chlorophyll,
the process of converting less compatible materials into blood will also require extra nerve
energy and so greens clearly are the most efficient option.
As you detoxify you will lose weight which may cause fear if you are already underweight –
but in this case you are just shedding these old inferior cells and gradually as the weeks
pass, you will replace weak cells with new healthy ones if you consistently drink lots of
greens and good oils and weight will stabilize, then you can build and tone muscle.
People knew about chlorophyll thousands of years ago and reference to the power of eating
grass is even made in the bible and ancient Chinese texts. Nowadays nutrition is all about
protein and counting calories and we have totally lost the plot.
It’s a bit like renovating an old house – you need to fix the foundations and cracked walls
before you plaster, paint, decorate and build extensions.
Eating solid, poorly combined, cooked food which hasn’t been chewed properly is like
throwing a spanner in the works of the small intestine. Humans are social and we often talk
while we eat and so food gets chewed a few times before being swallowed. Or we just eat
foods in a rush to fill our stomachs. Food and especially animal protein, must be liquefied if
it is to be absorbed and turned into blood, so it must be chewed thoroughly or you can juice
and blend your foods. Juicing is brilliant as the removal of insoluble fibre means the
chlorophyll content can be turned into new blood unimpeded. We don’t have time to be
grazing all day like horses so juicing is great for convenience as is liquid chlorophyll and
certain other concentrated sources such as low-heat dehydrated powders.
I made the mistake or relying on green powders for convenience but nothing can replace
the power of fresh juice. I will often juice half a kilo of wheatgrass and then dilute this,
sometimes with more than double the amount of ionized water so that it’s not too
concentrated for the body (or taste buds) to handle, and then drink this over the following
few minutes (if juicing broccoli or cabbage, just down the juice asap as the unique and
special antioxidants die very quickly after juicing)
Make sure you use warm water if the veg has come from the fridge so that the net effect is
that the juice is body temperature or slightly warmer. Cold juice will have the cumulative
effect of making you feel cold and it also won’t be digested so well.
Green foods are the key to success for so many reasons and
the greater the quantity of greens you consume, the greater
the health benefits you will experience. Sprouted grasses and
their juices are an excellent source of concentrated
chlorophyll, but all dark leafy green veg will also contain high
amounts. Greens in general and especially grasses are
alkalizing, anti-fungal and high in amino acids (wheatgrass
provides 4x more protein than meat). An added benefit of these foods is the abundance of
vitamins and alkaline minerals necessary to buffer acids, heal the small intestine and
nourish the entire body. Greens also cleanse the liver and blood and chlorophyll will help
to protect you against heavy metals, electrical pollution and oxidative stress. Although fruit
is a source of nutrients and fibre, it is low in chlorophyll and the high sugar content
(fructose) of fruit can stimulate yeast and fungal growth.
Humans can eat grass, but it needs to be blended, juiced or dried and turned into powder.
Human teeth are quite an effective ‘wheatgrass juicer’, you can just chew a ball of grass for
a while, then discard the pulp when there is no flavour left. This means it is fresh-pressed in
your mouth with no time for it to oxidize as it does when put through a mechanical juicer.
Wheatgrass Juice which contains chlorophyll, vitamins, minerals and nutrients has been
linked to many medical benefits. Some of the claimed benefits are listed below:
Remember, the small intestine produces 3 billion blood cells per second, so it is important
to consume greens in some form, ideally in liquid form for best absorption, several times
per day so that the raw materials are always there and available for the intestinal villi to
draw upon. Animals spend their entire day finding and eating the required sources of
chlorophyll – and it is estimated by some that humans would once have eaten several
pounds of leaves every day. Thankfully we can just juice or blend for the ultimate in fast-
food. The other animals would be extremely jealous if they knew we could just go to a store
to buy the greens, then juice or blend them.
Don’t just have one big salad in the evening as the body is producing new cells all day long.
Juicing really is a fantastic way of consuming more greens and it guarantees sufficient intake
of chlorophyll each and every day. It can be a fuss in the beginning, so maybe commit to
juicing one head of broccoli or a bag of spinach, remembering to dilute with water. A juice
like that will take no time to prepare. After a couple of weeks or when you feel you have
built some momentum, you may want to be more adventurous with combos. Personally, I
am a huge fan of grasses and often that’s all I will consume in terms of green juice.
Tip: Start off slow with green juices and build up. Dilute with water, ideally 3 or 4 parts
water or more if you are really not used to greens.
Ingredient #2: Oil/Good fats/lipids/EFA’s. So chlorophyll is ideal for creating haemoglobin
which is the inner, oxygen carrying part of the red blood cell. The second main ingredient
for building new blood is healthy, essential omega oils. The membrane or outer part of a red
blood cell which is what allows the cell to be flexible and strong is constructed from raw,
uncooked omega 3 & 6 fatty acids. The membrane acts like a skin for the haemoglobin
keeping it surrounded and intact so that it can function as it should. If you only ever eat
cooked, heated or otherwise oxidized oils, the membrane will be stiff, less flexible and not
nearly as strong or resilient.
In this picture you can see that at least 2 of the cells are
expressing EFA deficiency as evidenced by the lack of a
cell membrane. These cells are called shadow cells
because they look like a shadow, or like a normal cell
where the lights have been switched off. It is a pattern
which is usually corrected just by increasing good fats in
the diet. The brain, nervous and reproductive systems
require lots of good fats to function properly and a
deficiency can lead to all kinds of neurological and mood
problems.
If your diet is plentiful in fats and greens, you can rebuild and maintain the body from top to
bottom with high quality materials. (Toned muscles, healthy eyes, hair, skin, brain liver etc.)
Tip: Avoid combining fats and carbs, especially if you want to lose weight. You can
eliminate carbs altogether if you want, or, if you were to choose a high-carb/fruit sugar
approach for whatever reason, take your good oils well away from starches and sugars.
Ingredient #3: Water. The small intestine requires a steady supply of negatively charged
water (again, negative being a good thing) which it can use during the process of
manufacturing healthy cells. Water is also needed to refresh and cleanse the blood stream
so that once the healthy cells are made, they remain healthy and hydrated. Water is
needed for so many things in the body but suffice to say it is really important to drink plenty
of it if you want to have good blood with high energy levels.
Ingredient #4: Salt. There is a good reason for the blood being salty. The body uses salt to
make sodium bicarbonate (and other minerals including IRON) which is used to buffer acids
and maintain a healthy pH balance. Salt is critical for health and essential for life. Our
hormones communicate via a matrix salt and salt facilitates electrical activities in the body.
Salt is also involved in blood circulation. Table salt is bad. Pure, whole, unprocessed salt is
very good. More on this in the next section. https://youtu.be/9LfJz6COPyA To build perfect
blood you need chlorophyll, oil, water, salt….and people think this diet sounds difficult?
Technically you could live this way for pennies if you were prepared to grow or forage for
leaves. You can buy hemp and flax seeds and salt for not much money too.
The typical Western Diet has between 20-50 MHz (MHz simply being a unit used to measure
energy) of energy in it, which means that this way of eating will not contribute enough
electrical energy to support the needs of your cells in the long run. An extreme example of
dead-food is a Burger at MacDonald’s which has just 3-7 MHz of energy (depending on
lettuce tomato content which will provide a small amount of electrical energy!).
You want to look for foods above 70MHz as this is the same as the cells in our body. Raw
fruits and vegetables vibrate around 80-90 MHz, raw sprouted nuts and seeds are up
around 150 MHz! Dr Young’s Supergreens drink is 250 MHz. These foods will make it easy
for the body to maintain its optimal frequency of 70 MHz by helping compensate for other
energy withdrawals (a cancer cell for example is 40MHz).
Having energy isn’t just about eating sufficient calories, you need to electrons or electrical
energy if you want to feel fully alive and energized. Electrons from raw foods help your
body to make use of food much more effectively and to translate it into energy.
- Chlorophyll content.
- Alkaline forming.
- Vegetables are mostly water. Water is needed to diffuse toxins and eliminate acid
deposits.
- Contain fibre (unless juiced) to bind with acids and to clean the colon
- Alkaline Minerals to re-mineralise the body (put calcium back in the bones and
magnesium in the muscles).
- Anti-fungal properties.
- Full of electrons to restore the electrical charge/conductivity to the cells.
- Full of anti-oxidants
- Nutrients necessary to build good blood and rebuild the body.
- Detoxify the liver.
- Oxygenate the blood.
When you start eating/juicing these alkaline vegetables and you reduce the intake of acid
foods it will free up nerve energy which was being wasted on bailing out acids. This extra
energy gets diverted towards regenerating cells and restoring health. Symptoms can then
disappear and old injuries can heal. If the body isn’t forced to use alkaline minerals to
buffer acid, then those nutrients can be used to re-mineralize bones and muscles.
Juicing removes the fibre and so all you are left with is concentrated nutrition and your body
doesn’t have to deal with all that insoluble fibre.
Ignore the theory that kale or broccoli can interfere with iodine uptake. It is an unproven
theory and in any case even if it were true, iodine intake on this program (due to
supplementing) will be more than sufficient to counter any potential loss. This program is
highly beneficial for the thyroid.
Salt. Real, unrefined, unprocessed salt is actually required for good health. Healthy salt is a
pinkish colour and it looks and tastes totally different to table salt. Table salt (the white
stuff you see in salt shakers) is an industrial chemical because it is produced mostly for
industrial purposes. The 10% not used by industry ends up in people’s food. Table salt has
been bleached, cooked at over 1200 degrees, had anti-caking ingredients added and it is
stripped of all other minerals. Try to get unprocessed salt from ancient deposits which have
been naturally protected by the geography from modern pollution. It is best to use salt that
is extracted from underground deposits or from the Himalayan or other mountain ranges.
Open mines or salt taken from modern oceans is likely to be more polluted. Also, even if a
product is labelled ‘sea salt’ it may only contain 1% sea salt as labelling laws are very
relaxed. Redmond Real Salt and Himalayan Salt are two very good brands of salt to use and
you should add it liberally to food. Brands such as Redmond Real Salt or Himalayan Pink
salt are good or Dr Young sells an excellent liquid salt. Salt is better in liquid form as the
electrical properties become more available.
Low-sugar fruit: Low-sugar fruits have all the benefits of high-sugar fruit (mango, etc.) but
without all the fructose. Tomatoes (which have an alkalizing effect when raw), cucumber
(very alkaline/electron saturated) avocados, (very alkalizing and a great source of energy,
antioxidants, potassium, good fats, etc. and are very easy to digest – you can eat several per
day) Grapefruit, lemons and limes are all alkalizing. Small berries such as blueberries,
blackberries, raspberries and strawberries are ok in moderation when in balance.
Avocados in particular are brilliant and you can eat several per day. They are excellent for
exercise/fitness and as a source of energy in general. To ripen, put them in a brown paper
bag and place in a cupboard and they will ripen very quickly (especially if the cupboard is
warm) and you can include a banana in the bag if you want them to ripen even more
quickly. You can then put them in the fridge to slow the ripening process and they will keep
for several days.
Good fats: Avocado, coconut oil and other cold pressed oils are all great. Raw plant fats,
when fresh and not oxidized or rancid are excellent for your health. They provide energy
because they are full of electrons, they buffer acids and they also are needed for
constructing cell membranes. If you only ever eat bad fats, your cell membranes will be
constructed out of these bad fats.
Fats produce half as much acid when metabolized and used for energy when compared to
carbohydrates and so they are also an ideal fuel. A big salad or smoothie with avocado and
some quality cold pressed oils will provide lots of good energy which will last for hours,
keeping blood sugar levels nice and stable. Panaseeda is the best brand of oil due to its
stability at room temperature, flax and chia are my favourites. Udo’s oil is my second
favourite brand as it is the perfect blend of different seed oils and I use it a lot. Bitterness
indicates it has gone rancid so you should return it to the shop for a refund if you find it is
bitter. The only problem with seed oils is the phytic acid content. Hemp seed oil is free from
phytic acid or you can use soaked hemp seeds. Buying your own oil pressing machine might
be a good idea, then you can make fresh hemp oil each day as hemp has the perfect ratio of
omega 3 and 6. This is the machine which I use: http://www.ukjuicers.com/oilpresso-oil-
press
For people using animal products, ghee, oily fish, bone broth, etc are all sources of fat.
Good grains. The following grains are less prone to fermentation from storage; spelt, millet
quinoa, amaranth, wild rice and buckwheat. These grains fall into the mildly-acidic-but-still-
healthy, category of foods. Complex carbohydrates are acid-forming in the body and should
not generally exceed 20% of the diet, so eat them in moderation. Try not to store grains in
areas of the kitchen which are exposed to steam and heat from cooking as this will cause
the grains to go moldy. You can still eat bread but make sure you choose (yeast free) spelt
bread. Ideally, if/when you are ready and have had glimpses of real energy from burning
high-electron content fats, you can drop carbs altogether like a sack of potatoes if you want
to.
Soaked nuts: It is a good policy to soak nuts and seeds in water overnight to make them
more edible. Personally I don’t eat nuts and seeds and only really use them for making nut
milks or I consume cold-pressed seed oils. Raw nuts and seeds contain phytic acid and
antinutrients which can be removed by soaking. Soak them in water overnight (1-part nut or
seed to 3 or more parts water), pour away the soak-water, rinse, then top-up with fresh
water and they can be kept in the fridge for 2-3 days (it’s a good idea to change the water
every 24hrs). Hemp, flax, sesame and almonds are all very good. Discard any broken or
chipped nuts from the bag. The skin/hull is designed to protect the nut/seed from oxygen,
so when the skin is chipped away the nut is exposed and the oil inside will oxidize. Look at a
bag of shelled Brazil nuts in any health-food store – most of them are missing their
protective brown skin and large areas of the nut are exposed to the air. The nut has gone a
yellow colour which indicates that the oil has turned rancid. The same applies with pine and
macadamia nuts as, because they don’t have a skin, they oxidize once the shell is removed.
Garlic, onion, spices: I personally cannot tolerate garlic or onions. Many other spices are
also out of the question for me. They agitate and overstimulate my nervous system and my
28-year long habit of chronic fingernail biting stopped, only when I eliminated garlic and
onion from my diet. It took about a week for symptoms to pass, then I realised the
correlation. I ate some garlic again and within 2 hours I was uncontrollably gnawing my
fingernails! I have heard it said in terms of Ayurvedic medicine that garlic and onions
“promote passion and ignorance” (lol) and that they are ‘bad prana’ foods. Others say that
raw garlic isn’t good for (kills) the brain cells. There are also rumours that air-force pilots
are banned from eating it as it slows reaction times! (I know they also aren’t allowed Diet-
Coke due to the Aspartame content)
On the other hand, many people believe, Dr Young included, that these foods are healthy
and anti-fungal. So, if your body is ok with these foods then go for it…. maybe research it if
you are concerned or unsure.
Fresh fish. Try to avoid tuna as it contains a lot of mercury (1 portion contains your
maximum ‘safe’ weekly exposure) and generally the oceans are so polluted now (Fukishima,
Gulf oil spill dispersants, mercury etc.) that you shouldn’t really have ocean fish more than
once or twice per week. Besides which, we don’t need omega oils from fish as flax and
other seeds will provide omega 3 in the body’s preferred form.
http://brianpeskin.com/BP.com/publications/CADUCEUS-Peskin-2-2014.pdf
I have put fish in the healthy category as it may help some people to move from eating a
meat-based diet, to eating fish occasionally. Sardines are maybe a better choice of fish as
they are lower in the food chain and as such have accumulated less toxicity. Without
wanting to sound like a bore…. you really should look at the environmental impact of eating
ocean fish. Before long, eating fish may not be an option anyway. I’m not saying it will
make a difference if you stop eating fish, but when you look at what’s going on, you may no
longer want to participate.
Liquid food: Blend or juice as much of your food into a liquid state as possible. Even a
healthy alkaline meal of quinoa and vegetables isn’t going to build blood as well as raw
greens. So, ideally you will include juices, smoothies and soups every day. You can drink
green juice with solid food, even if you are having fish or animal protein and make sure food
is chewed for the benefit of the small intestine.
Daily rhythms: When you eat breakfast, lunch and dinner at roughly the same time each
day the body becomes conditioned and is ready for the task of digestion – in other words it
has time to prepare and knows what to expect. Try to eat and sleep at regular times. 9pm is
a good time to go to bed.
Quickstart guide:
In the beginning, it is best not to over-think your approach, just focus on cleaning the blood
and as this happens the whole body will get healthier. As the blood heals, all measures of
health will improve and hormones, inflammation, allergies – all begin to level-out naturally.
There is little value in symptomatic treatment (i.e. targeting a symptom) until you have at
least begun addressing the root-cause, which in this case is the overall condition and
cleanliness of your inner-environment. There are a number of components involved in the
pursuit of this.
Open up all channels of elimination:
Health requires proper elimination of waste. Ensure your bowels are moving; this requires
you to maintain a good level of hydration, to practice proper food combining and
sometimes the selective use of supplements when necessary. Drink plenty of clean, alkaline
fluids, as urine is a vehicle for getting rid of acids. Move your body and do moderate
exercise in order to mobilize the lymph and then eliminate it via the skin in the form of
sweat. Taking baths in sodium bicarbonate, Epsom salts, magnesium chloride etc. is an
excellent way to pull acids out via the skin (so much easier then asking the filter organs to
pull it out of the blood). Massage, cold showers, lymph drainage, colonic irrigation and
saunas are all great passive forms of removing waste.
Reducing acidity:
You need to eat some raw food to provide the building blocks for creation of healthy blood.
Chlorophyll, oil, water and salt – all are helpful for building and nourishing the blood.
Nutrition/nutrient status relies on good absorption, so doing a colon cleanse might be a
good idea too.
The least acid-forming diet is always going to be a raw or high-raw diet. At very least you
should consume about 40-50% raw on average. If you want to cleanse the blood, bowel and
lymph for mental acuity and physical/spiritual elevation, then strategic use of raw fruits and
herbs can be very effective. Or you can do an alkaline cleanse involving green juices and
smoothies, soups and salads – this will provide context for any damage in the small intestine
to heal and regenerate. Green smoothies are so easy; they are basically blended salads
(avocado, leaves, peppers, tomatoes, cucumber and alkaline salt etc). Poor food combining
will generate huge amounts of acidity and often the easiest way to improve body pH and
internal hygiene, is simply to improve food combinations instead of giving up all the foods
you enjoy right away.
Food combining:
Certain foods just don’t mix well. Fruit, for example, should be eaten alone and never with
or after ‘regular’ foods (and melon shouldn’t be eaten with other fruits). Animal protein
doesn’t combine with carbohydrate and fats don’t combine well with carbs either. So, for
example, you could have fats for breakfast and carbs for dinner. Or carbs for breakfast,
then fats for dinner. An example of a carb meal would be wild rice with broccoli, peas, kale
etc. with real-salt (Himalayan), herbs, spices and lemon as a dressing. A fat-based meal
would be steamed veg with oil and avocado. Or, you could choose a diet based only on fats
and eliminate carbs altogether… or have a high-carb, low fat diet if that suits you. Eating fat
doesn’t make you fat and neither will eating carbs… it is the combination of these foods
which causes problems.
Green juices (including wheatgrass juice) are recommended as a means of improving the
blood and pH of the body. Also, up to 80% of the space on your plate should be occupied by
alkaline vegetables and salad. A fully-raw diet is fine if you feel drawn to that and this
would involve raw fruits and vegetables, in their whole form or in salads and smoothies. A
100% raw, alkaline diet may be sensible if a health challenge is present. Fruits and leafy
greens do not normally combine well, but the exception to this rule is if you blend them in a
powerful blender to the point that they emulsify.
If you choose to continue eating animal products then aim for a high-fat, low-protein and
very low-carb option. So; very small portions of meat/protein with larger amounts of fats…
you will also want to keep carbohydrate intake very low. An example would be a large plate
of steamed kale with raw butter or ghee and a few eggs. I don’t necessarily advocate animal
products, but eating them within the context of a ketogenic (high-fat) diet, will arguably
yield the best results possible. Small portions of protein and zero overt sources of carbs (ie
no grains, no starchy veg) is the key to success. The paleo diet is simply too high in protein
and protein quickly converts to sugar (gluconeogenesis).
The golden rule is never mix fruits with fats (ie a fruit smoothie with avocado)
The same applies to your cooked meals – millet, quinoa, buckwheat, wild rice, spelt, sweet
potato, squash – all are ok until you add fats. So, eat grains with vegetables and salad. For
example, eat quinoa with kale, peas, butternut squash – add juice of 1-3 lemons, some salt
plus herbs/spices… but don’t add protein or fats (oils, avocado, butter/ghee etc)
Likewise, if you were eating a fat-based meal (avocado, oils etc.) I would not advise eating
any grains, starchy vegetables or fruits/sugars at that meal…. So a fat-based meal could be a
green smoothie of avocado and greens. If you want to keep carbs and fats in your diet then
eat them away from each other, so you could have carbohydrate for breakfast and then fats
for dinner, or have fats one day then carbs the next.
Optionally you could have 2 meals per day which are clean/raw and/or well combined.
Then, as a compromise, allow yourself to have one meal per day where you make healthy
choices, but perhaps are more relaxed about food combinations.
I would always advise to be very strict with fruit combinations. Only eat fruit in the morning
and on an empty stomach, or as part of a fruit-only diet, (fruitarian) or cleansing regime.
Fruit, when alone and without fats, can actually combat yeast/fungus. But fruit combined
with fat or in an otherwise unclean GI tract, will create fermentation and feed fungus.
Eating fruit after a meal is a terrible habit as it sits on top of the other food and begins
fermenting.
Examples:
Breakfast:
Quinoa/wild rice/millet with salad and veg
Gluten-free porridge and a green juice
Spelt toast with avocado and salad (not ideal combination but acceptable)
Lunch:
Green juice/smoothie (avocado, leaves, cucumber, tomato, pepper, lemon etc) with cold-
pressed omega oils (Udo’s oil)
Dinner
Avocado with salad and veg and omega oils (Udo’s oil)
Vegetable soup with salad, avocado and omega oils (Udo’s oil)
Fats are dense and they slow down the absorption of sugar… so the sugar hangs around in
the blood for longer, causing damage and also allowing any fungus which may be present, a
longer feeding-session.
Poor combinations also create mucus which becomes a habitat for parasites. Really
speaking, nutrition is less about vitamins, minerals and macro-nutrients, and more about
maintaining intestinal cleanliness, good absorption and reducing conditions which place
demands on our nutrient reserves.
Exceptions:
Avocado is a fat and a fruit, but it actually combines pretty well with most things. So, it may
be ok to have some avocado on spelt toast, or with some gluten-free pasta, but it may slow
down digestion and contribute to constipation. Also if weight-loss is your goal then its best
avoid combining fats and carbs whenever possible. Lemons and limes also combine with
most foods even though they are fruits.
Pros and cons of different diets: (I can’t tell you what to eat, but here are some options)
Relative to the standard western diet, all these different eating styles are alkalizing and will be a
vast improvement on the way people typically eat:
A ‘healthy & balanced’ diet: So when choosing a style of eating for yourself, you have many
options. There is a lot to be said for consistently eating a healthy wholefoods diet which
would include plenty of natural alkaline foods. A good wholefoods diet (some grains,
vegetables, fruits, fats etc) gives you a range of nutrients from a variety of sources. Eating
this way, when combined with regular eating times, regular exercise and consistent portion
sizes is far better than yoyo dieting or being really ‘good’ for a while with pure foods and
then pigging-out on all the foods you were missing. This style of eating can be good for
maintaining health but may not be sufficient for restoring health, especially once yeast is
established after use of antibiotics. It also is not going to eliminate parasites. Many people
need to cleanse and detox before returning to a regular/balanced diet.
Tips for a wholefoods diet: As always, practice good food combining and separate carbs and
fats as much as possible. Eat fruit on an empty stomach. If eating animal products eat small
portions of organic protein and be careful with dairy. Avoid wheat (everyone should
permanently eliminate wheat), rye, barley, oats. Avoid all high-acid forming foods and
substances; sugar, tea, coffee, vinegar, soy sauce, GMO’s, processed foods. If eating sweet
foods, then choose raw chocolate or a healthy version of your favourite treat. Be sure to
get plenty of leafy greens/green juices.
Pros: This diet supports the body with a good range of nutrients. It is not shocking or
stressing the body through extreme ways of dieting. More room for flexibility and makes
social eating easier.
Cons: Doesn’t cleanse at a deep level, not enough to rid yourself of an existing yeast
overgrowth, will not heal an already damaged small intestine. This way of eating is still
mucus forming.
High-fat, alkaline, vegan diet: (lots of raw plant fats, very low sugar/carbohydrate)
A person following a fully-raw alkaline diet would (after an optional period of transitioning)
have nothing but green smoothies and soups for a few weeks or even a few months in order
to allow the intestines to heal and to eliminate yeast and fungus. It’s like going back on
baby-food for a while as food can only be absorbed when it is in a liquid state. Blended food
requires very little effort to digest and is not acid forming. This means a burden is lifted
from the body and it can turn its attention to healing and cleaning-house. After a liquid
phase, the person may return to a diet which is 80% alkaline (raw greens and plant fats) and
20% mild-acid foods such as millet, quinoa etc.
Pro’s: Reduces acidity, lots of sustained mental and physical energy and strength from good
fats, feel warm in cold weather, good for building strength, builds clean and healthy blood
(as evidenced with live and dry blood analysis), heals and soothes the small intestines, good
for reducing or eliminating fungus, nourishing and energizing, high level of satiety from
consuming good fats. Outstanding results can be achieved.
Con’s: May be constipating for some unless careful with food combinations, could be
difficult to balance omega 3 and 6 ratios when taking oils from a variety of sources,
potential consumption of excess rancid oils (many commercially available oils are rancid),
this diet will not eliminate hardened mucus and maybe will not be enough to fully
discourage all worms and parasites. Possible issues with phytic acid from seed oils, some
people are sensitive to garlic, onion, nightshades and even avocados which tend to be
staples of this diet.
Tips: Please read ‘The pH Miracle’ (revised and updated) by Dr Robert O Young. Use hemp
oil if you have issue with phytic acid as hemp is a fruit and doesn’t contain phytates, it also
has the correct ratio of omega 3 and 6 (consider buying an oil-press to make your own oil
with http://www.ukjuicers.com/oilpresso-oil-press). Think about having an allergy test to
see which food you may need to avoid (some people may have sensitivity to avocado for
example. Some food sensitivities can be reversed though when the gut is fully healed). It is
possible to remove hardened mucus whilst on an alkaline diet, but this involves fasting on
herbs and clay/psyllium, so you can clean the colon without the need for fruits. Avocado
and olive oil will not create omega 6 imbalance as they are fruits and are high in oleic acid. It
is omega 6 from seed oils which can be problematic. To get the best results, it is worth
investing in alkaline supplements such as ionized green powders and pH drops. GI broom
can help with keeping the bowels moving.
A fruitarian diet would involve eating raw fruits, probably with the addition of leafy greens.
Some people consume smoothies with great success; made from fruits blended with leafy
greens in a Vitamix type blender. The leafy greens add chlorophyll, ALA/omega 3 and also
alkalinity plus the greens will slow down the absorption of sugar. An example would be 50%
fruits such as banana, pineapple, orange, strawberry combined with 50% leafy greens such
as kale, blended with some water until emulsified. As long as fat intake is low and hydration
is sufficient, the high levels of sugar in this diet are not much of a problem as, in the absence
of fat, the body’s ability to process sugar quickly and effectively, will improve. The
Boutenko family have written books about how to make tasty green smoothies. You could
have a green smoothie in the morning for example, then a regular meal later in the day,
several hours later.
A cleanse system called ‘The master fast system’ involves drinking grape and lemon juice
plus herbal tinctures, psyllium, clay and activated charcoal in order to remove hardened
mucus deposits from the body. It’s very good for clearing out and restoring the small and
large intestine and also cleaning the blood and lymph... basically it’s a very deep clean for
the entire body and will remove parasites.
To give an overview you drink one to three litres of grape juice per day (must be black
grapes and must also be cooked/pasteurized and not raw) you add the juice of 1-3 lemons
per litre of grape juice... You will also use certain herbal tinctures which support the glands
and help to dislodge accumulated wastes. Also, you take 3 x teaspoons of psyllium husk
powder with activated charcoal and clay - with a few hundred ml of grape juice. You could
do a hybrid version and continue to eat one meal per day... but the meal would be simple
and consist of fruit or salad or some cooked vegetables. Many of the ‘cons’ below apply only
to the fruitarian diet, but not to this particular cleanse..So far I have only seen benefits from
this cleanse.
Pros: Can remove hardened mucus and parasites, cleans the entire body of acid deposits,
fruit is quick and easy to digest (not constipating), promotes regular bowel movements, high
in water, vitamins and antioxidants, promotes clarity of mind and high electrical
conductivity. Very good for releasing and processing emotional toxicity held in the body.
Cons: Often poor quality, unripe and hybridized fruit (in the UK at least), potential for
unwanted weight loss (unless maintaining high intake of leafy greens), will cause health
problems unless blood and GI tract are clean (due to fermentation caused by putting fruit
into an unclean GI tract), may not suit everyone as a long-term diet, particularly in cold
climates. Potentially not enough fats or chlorophyll (although there is omega 3 in fruits and
leaves). If underlying imbalances are present and/or if diet is not properly constructed
(lacking leafy greens), then health issues may arise from excess fruit sugar including
hormone, dental and fertility problems… and a general feeling of not thriving or feeling
nourished.
A ketogenic diet is a fat-based diet which will typically include animal products. The
emphasis is on fats such as raw butter, egg yolks, fatty cuts of meat, oily fish etc… A true
ketogenic diet is low in protein (small portions of fatty meat, very high in fat, and very low
carbohydrate for example your carbohydrate allowance will come in the form of kale and
broccoli... no grains or starchy veg are consumed when following this diet). As blood sugar
drops, the body produces ketones (a type of energy) from dietary fats… this is an alternative
source of fuel for the brain. I followed a vegetarian version (which included eggs and raw
butter) of this diet at one stage and found I stayed lean and was able to gain lean muscle…
plus found I had plenty of energy and even higher tolerance to the cold. I only stopped as
wanted to return to a vegan diet with focus on deep detoxification.
Pros: lots of steady energy, good for fitness and building strength, high level of satiety, good
array of nutrients and vitamins, mental acuity. Lots of research suggests a keto diet is anti-
cancer and has many other health benefits. Promotes fat loss and muscle gain. Is anti-
inflammatory.
Cons: This is not a cleansing diet, it is mucus forming, can promote parasites, more acid
forming, may be difficult to succeed on this diet if thyroid or hormone imbalance is present,
it doesn’t give the same sort of clarity which you get from a raw-vegan diet although you
will feel mentally very sharp. Can be difficult for some people do fully adapt to ketosis…
Tips: Watch Stephanie Keto Person on Youtube. Stephanie’s version of the ketogenic diet is
more in alignment with my own views and she encourages people to avoid certain foods
which other advocates would say are acceptable on a keto diet. She says to totally avoid
potential allergens (nuts, cheese, soy, coffee) for at least a month whilst adapting to keto,
and then be very careful if/when reintroducing these foods.
What do I recommend?
It depends on your goals, the climate in which you live, availability of foods and so on.
You may find that you thrive eating a high-fat, alkaline diet – such as raw salads with
avocado and cold-pressed oils, green smoothies with avocado, cold-pressed oils, leaves,
tomato, lemon, pepper, cucumber. If this way of eating suits you then you can continue
eating this way full-time. Or, you could have one fat-based meal at lunch for example and
one carbohydrate meal in the evening.
I think it’s important to experiment and try different ways of eating in order to get to know
your body and what works for you. Leave yourself plenty of options and you can alternate
between different eating styles, perhaps aiming to eat a more cleansing diet during spring,
summer and autumn… you can monitor body pH and also use blood analysis as a tool for
checking the effectiveness of your diet and lifestyle. Whatever you decide, it is wise to do a
cleanse of some kind. Spring and Autumn (around the equinoxes) are great times for
detoxification. Only once the yeast and parasites are gone, can you really know yourself and
your true tastes/needs. The word ‘nutrition’ is thrown around a lot, but really, most people
absorb 10-20% of what they eat. The lymph and colon need to be cleaned before we care
able to receive nutrition. It’s much like renovating a house, first you have to strip back all
the old plaster and wallpaper, then prime and rebuild. Putting good nutrition into an
unclean digestive system is like painting over bad walls.
If you eat animal products or any other acidic foods (including junk foods) – take some
psyllium and charcoal to soak up toxins from the gut and sweep all the wastes away. Wait a
couple hours after eating otherwise the charcoal will soak up the nutrients, so wait for your
food to be mostly absorbed before taking it. If you’ve eaten some junk and are regretting it,
then take the psyllium and charcoal right away (with water) to soak up what you shouldn’t
have eaten!
Shopping List: Eat organic food where possible and avoid GMO at all cost.
Carbohydrate: Wild rice, quinoa, millet, buckwheat, squash, sweet potato, buckwheat/black
bean/lentil/mung bean pasta/spaghetti. (don’t mix these foods with fats or oils)
Fats: Avocado, Udo’s oil, hemp oil, coconut oil. (and remember not to mix with carbs)
Fruits: mango, pineapple, strawberries, apple, grapefruit etc (blend with greens and don’t
ever mix with fats. If you eat fats…. Wait many hours before eating any fruits, possibly wait
till the following day)
Tip: dilute wheatgrass with water (and optionally) add lemon juice to make it easier to drink
and to make it more gentle on the stomach. Also, only juice the top 50% of the blade of
grass as the bottom half contains enzymes and sugars which can make you feel nauseous. I
can easily drink 20 oz of wheatgrass per day if its diluted. You can order fresh wheatgrass
online… maybe treat yourself to a few batches of grass to really kick-start your health.
Avoid or reduce: Tea, coffee, sugar, alcohol, vinegar, soy sauce, miso, fermented foods,
yeast, mushrooms, algae, processed foods, wheat, rye, barley, oats, peanuts, cashews,
pistacios, corn, potatoes, GMO’s.
Probiotics – they give you short term gains, but long term losses as they damage the
delicate tissue of the small intestine. Same applies to enzymes.
Fasting: Intermittent fasting can be very good. i.e. skip breakfast and eat only between 12-
6pm or even between 2-6pm. Some people thrive on just one meal per day. Don’t starve
yourself though and your overall intake of food still needs to be enough to meet your
energy requirements. With intermittent fasting your body does become more efficient and
so food requirements may be less over time.
Eat enough: Don’t starve yourself…don’t calorie restrict or live on stimulants (coffee, sugar).
Get cortisol levels down by eating nourishing, non-allergy causing foods. Starving yourself in
an effort to lose weight, causes your metabolism to slow down and the body then has to
turn off less critical functions in the body – like turning off radiators and lightbulbs in the
less important rooms of a house.
Bed time: In bed by 8-9pm. Turn off Wi-Fi and electronics. Wear blue-blocking glasses if you
need to use a TV or computer screen in the evening. The glasses have an orange tint and
prevent the blue light from the screen from tricking your body into thinking its daytime, so
melatonin isn’t spoiled
Sunshine: Be sure to expose your skin to the sun whenever possible. Vitamin D takes
several days to form on the skin so don’t wash it off with soap!
Misc: Choose good thoughts, good music, positivity, positive intention, nature, essential oils
etc
pH drops – These drops are added to water and decrease fungus in blood, they increase
oxygen, add negative charge to the blood, plus improve pH of the water (instructions below
as the drops are added to the pH Miracle Greens powder)
pH Miracle Greens (as per the kirlian photo earlier on, this has a frequency of 250MHz) –
add 5 x pH drops (five single drops from dropper bottle) plus 1 to 3 x scoop/s of green
powder per litre of water – drink within 15 mins once mixed. Beyond 15 mins it begins to
lose its charge. Maybe start with 2 x drops plus half a scoop of greens until you get fully
used to it.
pHour Salts (or regular plain sodium bicarbonate) – Take this to buffer all kinds of
metabolic and dietary acids. Take 1 x scoop in 5oz water, 1 to 3 x daily. 10 mins later, after
each dose, drink some pure water (i.e. 1 pint or have a litre of greens listed above)
Test your urine and saliva pH, if its below 7.2 at any time in the day… take 1 scoop of 4 salts
or bicarb in 5oz water.
pHlush – This is a great colon cleansing product. It will clean the colon and can also be used
to flush out food which you shouldn’t have eaten. If you are not able to do a full detox, you
can do running-repairs with pHlush. Take a ¼ tsp in 5oz water with food… or take a full tsp
or more with 8oz water… follow 20 mins later with a pint of water (you will need to stay
near a toilet when taking 1-2 tsp dose). It won’t get rid of hardened mucus deposits, but it
will break down undigested proteins and without burning you as probiotics and enzymes do.
Iodine:
Take iodine as per instructions on the bottle (although I take upward of 50mg daily and have
taken up to 300mg daily without any ill effects). Generally, you should take a few drops and
increase the amount each day, listen to your body to find your tolerance level. You will want
to take a selenium supplement or a multi-vit containing selenium. Also, 30 mins or more
after taking iodine, take half a tsp of Himalayan salt in a small amount of water. Follow 10
mins later with a glass of plain water, this is to flush out bromide from the kidneys which is
mobilized and detoxified by the iodine. Nascent Iodine is available online.
So a quick recap, plus some additional information about how different foods react in the
body and then I will offer some recipe and meal ideas. This should help you to decide
which eating style you will choose to try:
If your diet is working for you or if you just like eating a certain way, then stick with it if you
want to whether it is macrobiotic, paleo, fruitarian, ayurvedic, GAPS, blood-type diet or
whatever…. It is not my intention to impose or dictate anything. It is your body and your
blood so you are free to choose the best method for improving your blood results. I just
share the information which works for me and which was designed specifically for healing
the blood stream. You could maybe do a hybrid version of your current diet, along with
principles included in this book (i.e. include some more raw chlorophyll, oils, alkaline water
and alkaline salts).
There are many nutritional theories available, but blood analysis shows that we all have a
universal requirement for raw chlorophyll, omega 3 and 6 plus other fats, good quality salt,
and ionized water with a negative charge (such as we would be drinking in nature). Also, we
need to consistently supply the body with minerals, trace minerals and other raw materials
for repair and construction. Including some raw food is essential – but you need to know
how to do it so you don’t create imbalance. Fruit for example, particularly unripe hybridized
fruit is unbalancing, especially when it is flown from abroad and you live in the UK and is too
high in sugar. You will ideally eat a variety of green leaves which can be juiced, blended or
otherwise chewed to a liquid state. Most animals eat large amounts of leaves, not fruit –
and we have the same requirement for chlorophyll. Chlorophyll builds and restores our
blood cells (the green blood of plants has the same molecular structure as our own red
blood), also, research shows that when we consume chlorophyll it allows us to use energy
from the sun when we expose our skin to sunlight. We actually generate more (ATP) energy
when chlorophyll consumption and sun exposure are combined. Sprouts and microgreens
are the key to thriving on a diet high in raw foods. It is a myth that raw food makes you
cold. At times I eat 100% raw in winter and will wear shorts even when its below zero….this
is because raw food boosts blood circulation as I explain in my book.
Meal examples: I have included carbohydrate for those eating more of a varied diet.
Alkaline diet:
A raw, alkaline diet which could be used for either periodic cleanses or a fulltime lifestyle
would involve low-sugar/carb, high-fat green smoothies, raw soups, salads, vegetables and
all with plenty of cold pressed oils (several ounces of oil per day), plus alkaline salts and
clays. The body shifts from running on more dense food sources, to a state of increased
electrical conductivity and your health and energy levels can increase significantly. Food
options are quite restrictive by many people’s standards and so a full-alkaline lifestyle may
not be for everyone, at least not all year round.
A standard alkaline diet which might be useful as a transition or maintenance phase, would
be 80% alkaline vegetables and oils, plus 20% cooked food including millet, quinoa,
buckwheat and occasional fish or meat. Again, trying to observe food combining rules, in
particular not having cold-pressed oils with grains or meat.
You could alternate between vegan and non-vegan to see how you feel. Experiment to see
the difference it makes to your health. If your body is in a weakened state, I would suggest
go raw alkaline for a while, then later introduce animal products if you still feel the need
and focus on building strength after you have addressed the health challenge.
Recipes:
1 (optional) fresh young coconut (all the water inside plus all or some of the flesh)
1 avocado
½ a large cucumber or 1 mini cucumber (peeled if you like)
A big handful of spinach and/or Rocket a.k.a Arugula
Cinnamon smoothie:
1 x avocado
¼ tsp coconut oil (Tiana is a good brand as its fully raw)
Coconut water (optional due to sugar content)
Alkaline water
1 x tsp cinnamon (Ceylon cinnamon) or according to taste
Stevia leaf and Real Salt to taste
Avocado and juice: Another idea is to make a green vegetable juice, dilute with slightly
warm alkaline water and then blend an avocado or two into the juice (then add flax or chia
oil). For example, juice up some celery, cucumber (and/or rocket, parsley, coriander,
spinach, broccoli, kale, cabbage, watercress) and then blend with some avocado. You can
even juice some soaked hemp seeds or almonds if using a twin-gear juicer. This will actually
keep you warm in winter, such is the effect on circulation and good fats reduce heat loss in
the body too.
If someone has visited me for a blood test and wants to know what they can do to really
improve their blood before their next follow-up test, then this is what I suggest drinking. It’s
a great way to add lots of alkalinity and chlorophyll in a concentrated form and without the
fibre to interfere with nutrient uptake.
Tip: I blend warm water with the avocado, pour that into my glass jar and then stir in the
fresh juice to avoid blending the delicate nutrients of the juice.
Salads: Try eating a big salad with some good oil, salt, lemon and half an avocado…. ideally
drink some fresh green juice with it. This makes a surprisingly good meal and if you chew
properly, so will feel like you’ve had a good meal. Tip: if eating outside, avoid exposing the
oil to sunlight as it will oxidize quickly.
Carbohydrate options:
Or sourdough spelt bread toasted with avocado, almond butter, guacamole, salad or
whatever you can think of.
Sweet potato, squash, pumpkin – maybe use to make vegetable curry and eat with salad. Or
have with steamed peas, broccoli etc. and rocket or lettuce, avocado, tomato, ginger.
This raw flatbread is good for travel and is raw, organic and very filling. Great with avocado
and salad. Good for people transitioning to an alkaline diet. As with all dehydrated foods,
you should drink extra alkaline fluids to make up for the low water content

Mung bean pasta is a good substitute for wheat pasta. Also look out for spelt pasta, soba
noodles, kelp noodles and other similar items in your local health store
http://www.exploreasian.com/mungbeanpasta#.VCbx6fZwbX4
(It is best not to have any fats or oils with these meals. Also, you will see no protein, sugar or
fruit is present with carbohydrate meals. Avocado in moderation may be ok. You can
however drink or sip green juice with meals)
Colon cleansing: One of the biggest enemies to our health is mucus in the GI tract which
becomes hardened and prevent the bowels from functioning correctly and it also creates a
habitat for parasites which live between and under there layers of mucoid plaque.
Peristalsis can’t work properly and the whole body becomes malnourished and polluted. It
is therefore crucial that this plaque be removed.
Using clay, psyllium and activated charcoal along with certain herbs whilst fasting, or eating
or drinking the juice of fruits, allow this encrusted matter to be eliminated from the body.
Once the GI tract is clean and healthy, then all food will be better absorbed. If one wants to
eat fruit as the main staple of their diet…. cleaning the GI tract is needed otherwise you will
be introducing pure, high water content food into a dirty bowel and it will just cause
fermentation and putrefaction. This I think is why some people get serious health problems
from a fruit diet…. because they haven’t first removed all the undigested proteins from their
previous meat based diet.
Exercise is very important and one aim of exercise is to move blood and the lymphatic
system, but without using adrenaline/burning sugar and creating lactic acid. Rebounding on
a mini trampoline is very effective for pumping the lymphatic system and moving acids out
for elimination, all without putting stress on the joints. Just gently bouncing up and down
will pump the lymph and when combined with hydration this will cleanse and alkalize the
body. This technically counts as a detox.
As you jump up and down, every single cell in the body is forced to resist gravity (more than
normal) and greater force is placed on each cell. This causes the cells to request more
nutrition and, provided that you are consuming plenty of chlorophyll and other nutrients,
each cell, including internal organs and glands, will get stronger as a result.
This is another health tool used by NASA for increasing bone density in astronauts who have
spent time in zero gravity. They describe it as the most effective from of exercise ever
created, not least because it strengthens the body and skeleton, but without impact on the
skeleton.
Any gentle to moderate aerobic activity which makes you sweat is good – sweating is an
essential component of removing stored acids. Using a sauna is an excellent form of passive
exercise which removes a lot of acid with very little effort. Even if a person’s diet isn’t
perfect, then yoga can help to compensate a great deal as it is so cleansing, oxygenating and
helps to open the detoxification pathways.
You can’t alkalize if you don’t move your body, even with the best food. But, like a car that
hasn’t been properly serviced, if you are low in important nutrients, water, electrons etc.
you should not push yourself very hard in exercise. Magnesium is essential for your
muscles to work properly, if you are low in this or other vital nutrient you will put extra
strain on the body.
Massage is another way to move and eliminate toxins from the body. Lymphatic massage is
very powerful and can be a great tool if you have congested lymph. Skin-brushing and also
hot/cold alternating showers are great for moving the blood and lymph.
Liver health:
Milk thistle and other liver herbs – are very good for removing acids from the liver.
Castor oil packs – This involves applying castor oil to the outside of the body over the
location of the liver and promotes the detoxification of the liver.
Liver flush – This uses Epsom salts and olive oil to flush the liver.
Water – just drinking more water will greatly assist the functioning of the liver.
Colon cleanse: (this will benefit the entire body and assist the filter organs)
Enemas – great for washing old debris from the colon
Colonics – gives a deeper clean than enemas.
pHlush powder – this is an oxygen-based cleaning product which you ingest orally. It breaks
up old undigested proteins and causes them to be expelled into the toilet. You need to stay
near a loo when using this product. In smaller doses the effect is more gentle and you can
go about your daily life as normal.
Clay & psyllium – these products combined with clean the small and large intestine.
Skin Detox (you can remove a huge amount of toxins via the skin, this means less work for
the filter organs and less energy spent by the body)
Sweating - Saunas, Far infra-red sauna, moderate exercise. FIR saunas move acids out
through the skin.
Salt baths - (sodium bicarbonate, Himalayan salt, magnesium chloride or sulphate).
Important tip: add sodium thiosulphate to bath water to get rid of chlorine (buy on
Amazon). These salts nourish you with minerals, but also pull acids out through the skin.
Lymphatic drainage:
Skin brushing – use a skin brush to move the lymphatic system
Massage is excellent for moving the lymph, especially manual lymphatic drainage.
Mini trampoline/rebounding – just 2 minutes of gentle bouncing is enough to move
the entire lymphatic system.
Leaky gut, intestine damage (please read eBook for more info)
Glutamine – this is proven to help heal leaky gut.
Alkaline salts – this will help neutralize acids in the intestines.
Clay – clay is probably the most healing substance I know of for repairing the intestines.
Vitamin D
Make sure you get some sun on your skin. Sun screen and sunglasses only diminish your
body’s ability to utilise the sun’s rays.
EMF protection:
Qlink pendant or Earth calm pendant.
Bed Therapy/sleep
Inclined bed therapy means having the head-end of your bed raised by 6”. This has
profound benefits for your health and blood circulation.
Wear blue-blocking glasses to improve quality of sleep. Blue light from phones, lights and TV
screens at night time will disrupt melatonin production as it tricks your brain into thinking
its still daytime.
Attitude: The problem with revolving your life around a new dietary approach, in my
opinion, is that you can become a bit imbalanced and obsessed with food for a while. It can
be difficult to balance your new realisation that your current diet may be less than perfect
and also your enthusiasm to heal, improve and flood your body with only the ‘right’ foods,
with the need to stay sane and not fear ‘bad’ food or use food as an unhealthy form of
control.
The food we eat, our likes tastes and preferences are a huge part of our identity and we
have a lot of memories and associations to different foods. My advice would be, that if you
have the luxury of time and you do not have an urgent health challenge, that you be kind to
yourself and transition slowly giving yourself a chance to make new associations to new
foods and ways of eating. Eliminate wheat and use spelt instead. Use organic where
possible. This all still counts as alkalizing, as relative to how you were eating before it is a
much cleaner diet. Right away though you should aim to eliminate MacDonald’s, KFC,
Haribo sweets, cola and all non-foods. There are plenty of healthier equivalent alternatives
and many other less toxic substitutes that you can choose. In many cases you will still be
able to eat the foods you like such as curry and so on, but it just requires substituting some
ingredients.
As you alkalize with ionized fluids, your taste buds sharpen immensely, your senses in
general become sharper, you become more in tune with what your body wants and your
tastes will change accordingly. You basically begin to crave fats, salads and vegetables
because you enjoy the taste and you start to notice how good those foods make you feel.
Alkaline water will do a lot of the hard work on your behalf “You don’t have to give these
foods up; they will give you up” Robert Young. Also do not let anyone tell you this is too
extreme because that’s only true if you live on celery sticks… which no one is advising.
Just make small steps each day because small steps really do add up and also because it
takes a little bit of time to learn a whole new way of food shopping, eating and living, even if
it only takes you a week or two to grasp the basics. The body and spirit are both very
resilient and we can survive well on many different diets, hence why humans have survived
so well. Rivers and oceans aren’t always pristine and there is tolerance in our internal
rivers and streams for some pollution so don’t worry if your blood isn’t pure and perfect
all the time. The human organism is tough. This information is intended to be about
empowering yourself, learning how to support your body and all whilst living in the real
world. It is not supposed to make you want to head for the hills and live in a bubble
although you may feel you want to change or modify your work and living environments.
You can’t avoid toxins but you can reduce your exposure and massively increase your body’s
capacity for eliminating toxins to which we are all exposed. In general, it is recommended
that you approach any dietary or lifestyle changes in the spirit of choosing better health as
opposed to fear of toxins, not least because fear creates acid. Even if all you take away
from this is to drink more of the right kind of water, then this is still a very positive thing and
it will benefit you immeasurably in the long run in how you look, feel and every other
measurement of your health. A great deal can be achieved simply by drinking good water.
Focus on eating more juiced vegetables instead of focusing on what you can’t or shouldn’t
eat. As long as you are eating/drinking more vegetables each day then this counts as
progress. So just keep plodding along and all of a sudden you’ll realise your health has
turned a corner. Make small changes which last and eventually you will build new habits.
If you fall off the wagon, just get back up and carry on. Often times this is not even a step
backwards, relative to how your diet was before it was just a smaller step forward than
normal. Sometimes, I think, you may need to go backwards to go forwards, in other words
don’t necessarily expect to be able to conquer all your habits in one go.
It’s also good to remember that your body is just a spacesuit for your soul. You really want
it to be in good shape, but that said it is not permanent and it is not ‘you’.
The cheapest, easiest (and maybe most effective!) way to alkalize: Simple visualization is a
really powerful tool and should not be dismissed or underestimated i.e. “oh I won’t bother
with that, it won’t have any effect” or “this feels silly” or, subconsciously… “this isn’t
difficult, complicated or expensive enough so how could it possibly work”.
Top level Olympic athletes, F1 drivers, Tennis players, martial artists all use visualization
because it works. It has a physical effect on the body and when runners visualize themselves
running, their muscles can’t tell the difference and reactions occur on a physical level in the
leg muscles.
My suggestion is to briefly imagine your veins full of healthy cells and get an image of them
circulating in your body doing their thing (especially if you’ve just had a blood analysis
consultation and your blood looked a bit of a mess!). Not much focus is required and you
don’t need to see lots of detail, just get a sense of it. When you are driving, or have a few
spare seconds just check-in with your body and sense these healthy cells flowing in your
veins. Also imagine your healthy, alkalized stomach and intestines with healthy villi, being
bathed in chlorophyll-rich liquids for the purpose of building blood with. Even if you just ate
a burger – don’t focus on the reality of the situation or the subsequent guilt, firstly even for
a split second give thanks or brief acknowledgment, if you can, for the fact that you even
have food in your stomach, then imagine that the burger is actually green alkaline
chlorophyll rich liquids in your stomach which go on to become good blood. This is not
deceiving yourself and I’m not promoting cognitive dissonance, but what we focus on
becomes reality.
If you focus on greens (especially in an emotionally charged, food related situation), the
brain/subconscious will begin to attract healthier food choices and will figure a way to make
the imagined pictures a reality. If you feel guilty about the burger, your focus is intently on
burgers and weather it seems fair or not, you will attract more burgers. Do yourself a favour
and forget that this seems unfair i.e. that you attract more of the thing that you say you
don’t want, and just focus on the healthy stuff. I wish I have surrendered to this fact long,
long ago as that would have saved me some time and struggles with things like chocolate,
coffee and bread all of which I ended up revisiting after my initial phase of alkalizing, simply
because I needed to face up to and go through my addictions…. instead of running away
from them and fearing acidic foods. Having read a lot of books on raw-food and how
cooked food, amongst other things, ‘permanently depletes your enzymes’ – I was motivated
mostly by fear where diet was concerned. I think it is also a very good idea to DRAW what
health looks like to you. If you have a picture, then the brain has something tangible to
work towards. You can even imagine ‘downloading’ nutrients such as vitamins minerals
from the ethers if you wish.
Holistic health: Your physical health can only really progress according to growth in other
areas of your being. Imagine if you will, a triangle which represents your holistic health
(Mind, body and spirit) and to improve or grow your health you need all sides of the triangle
to get larger. So, you need to grow the triangle but keep each side equal. If one side is
larger than another the shape becomes imbalanced. I found that my physical health has
only been able to progress according to mental, spiritual and emotional development and
this is something which can’t be forced. If you focus on diet alone, you may get rid of your
symptom but life will probably just slingshot you back to where you were before, which is
fine too and is all part of the learning curve. It sounds corny and cliché but appreciation and
gratitude are two of the most potent ant-acids available, but this can require effort and can
be like building up an atrophied muscle.
It is not possible to alkalize your body whilst maintaining acidic thoughts such as anger,
worry, guilt and blame because these are adrenal-based, sugar-fuelled emotions and the
acidity created will make it hard to resonate with the levels of light (electrons and foods
with high conductivity/vibration) involved with a high pH, high-electron diet and there will
be a conflict here. That said it really does go both ways and your emotional balance will be
impacted if your body chemistry is in chaos and you are eating the dense flesh of unhappy,
factory farmed animals loaded with artificial chemicals. Eating high-vibration food will lift
your mood and make you feel better. This will make it easier to improve your attitude and
choose better thoughts because you begin to get a sense that anger only hurts you and
drains your own personal energy. You want to create a snowball effect in the direction of
health.
A friend of mine had chronic kidney disease and his kidney function was only 60%. He had
seen various specialists and was told there was no treatment available to stop or even slow
down the degeneration. So, I gave him an alkalizing supplement and suggested he modify
his diet. Within just a couple of months his kidneys were tested and were shown to be
functioning at 100% (by the medical establishment’s standards). All he had done differently
was to drink 2 litres of alkaline, electron rich green drink per day and he also had cut out
white bread. The problem with having a specialist of any particular organ is that they don’t
get to see the entire picture and can’t necessarily see what’s upstream from the problem
they are viewing. It’s a bit like looking at a painting with your nose pressed against the
canvas. In my view it is unlikely that anyone can have any success in treating the kidneys
when the patient is acidic and dehydrated.
One of my first case studies was a man named Hanz, who had broken both his legs badly
whilst in the RAF in his youth. His parachute hadn’t opened properly and he only just
survived the fall. For 30 years he had used 2 walking sticks whenever he needed to get
about and he still had a lot of pain. After just 3 months on a high alkaline diet, he was able
to walk with just one stick and at other times (about 50% of the time) he could walk without
any support – the pain was also significantly reduced. Acids go to our weak spots and settle
there, and whilst in hospital after the traumatic (all physical and emotional trauma causes
acid) accident, he would have been eating acidic food and taking acidic medication and so
the acids had stayed, preventing the bones from fully healing. It goes to show that no
matter how old an injury may be, if you can remove the daily acid wastes produced in the
body plus the old acid accumulations, the body can often heal itself.
A local plasterer who was doing some work on my Mother’s house had a lifelong problem
with psoriasis which covered his back, chest and arms. Within just a few weeks of hydrating
with an alkaline supplement his psoriasis was all but gone. It was one of the most satisfying
stories because it was such an easy-fix and the results so dramatic to see. He was free from
the discomfort which had been with him his whole life.
My Dad had dangerously high blood pressure and the doctors wanted to put him on
medication. Within a few weeks of an improved diet and 2 litres of green drink per day his
blood pressure was totally normal.

My story…. (continued): This isn’t intended to come across as a story all about me, but
some people may want to know the details so I included as much info as possible as it may
just help someone, especially the bit about vaccines.
My childhood was enjoyable in many ways, running around in the fields of the Devon
countryside, but as far back as I can remember my brain felt a bit scrambled and memory,
learning and focussing on tasks for any length of time were not easy for me. The first time I
recognized it as a problem was at primary school and we were set a very simple task in
class, we were supposed to draw the life-cycle of a penguin and I failed miserably! The
teacher thought I just hadn’t tried properly and so sent me out of the room. My education
pretty much went downhill around that time and it was clear there was no point even
trying, which in one way suited me as the curriculum wasn’t very stimulating. Also as you
can tell from this book, my tendency is to question the official versions of things, but that
type of thinking is never really encouraged in school, although it would have been nice to
know I could do the work if I tried.
Socially I was a bit awkward and shy although still had friends, my mother said I used to be
quite extrovert and confident as a small child but then suddenly became more shy and
quiet. I am convinced (in my own subjective opinion) that this was due, at least in part, to a
reaction to childhood vaccinations as mercury detoxification was instrumental in turning my
health around. Removing my mercury fillings made a significant improvement to my mental
fogginess and ability to concentrate as some people just don’t methylate mercury well.
My diet was extremely high in sugar and allergens but very low in nutrients so my brain was
scrambled from the start. Gut problems and food allergies can cause brain inflammation
and this was a large part my problem. The various head injuries I had as a child probably
hadn’t helped either! (Too many to list)
Due to a lack of normal happy social interactions I instantly gravitated towards ‘recreational
substances’. Getting drunk at 13 and liking it soon progressed, by age 15 to drinking alcohol,
smoking cigarettes and cannabis/skunk regularly and had taken speed a few times. The
problem with drugs is that they make a person with low dopamine levels feel normal for a
short time, then when the drugs wear off reality feels unbearably dull and flat. When a
happy person takes drugs, they get high then come back down to earth and carry on with
their life as usual.
When cannabis wasn’t available my friends and I had got into the habit of inhaling solvents
(butane gas and industrial solvents!). Around this time my dentist extracted four teeth to
make room for orthodontic braces and it was on this day that my mood crashed to an
alltime low which happened literally as I was walking out of the dentist’s office. All four
teeth contained mercury fillings and they all cracked during extraction meaning mercury
vapour and particles were inhaled and some particles were swallowed. Days passed and I
was still depressed and even more foggy-headed (this time with added numbness in my
head, yay!), and so I just smoked more pot to compensate, which didn’t really work. I hadn’t
made the correlation at the time and probably just thought it was some residual trauma
from the tooth-pulling.
Starting college at age 16 my brain was pretty much useless. I decided to quit, or at least
was thinking it might be a good idea, all cannabis use to try and get some clarity. But I met a
new social circle and before long we were all taking speed or ecstasy most weekends and
smoking skunk all day, every day. It was exhausting just holding everything together and
even being a lazy stoner was hard work as I didn’t want people to see how much I was
struggling. After a two-week long ecstasy binge at the end of college which incorporated
Glastonbury festival and lots of surreal adventures, I decided to quit everything and finally
succeeded on New Year’s Eve 1999. I stayed in that night and painted my bedroom a happy
yellow colour……but the paint fumes made my headache even worse!
By this point I was basically a walking zombie and I spent about 3 months in bed, not able to
face the world. My head was numb and it felt like blood/oxygen supply to my brain was
totally lacking. Just thinking used to feel uncomfortable and laborious and avoided thinking
and situations that required thought.
It was frustrating as I knew I was intelligent but my brain just couldn’t make connections or
retain information, several people actually thought I had Asperger’s syndrome and maybe
they were right? My speech was laboured as thoughts didn't flow and I couldn't find the
right words to make sentences with. There was constant white-noise in my head, ringing in
ears and sensitivity to sound. The sound of a fridge humming, or a ticking clock would annoy
me, in fact most things made me irritable. There was a constant feeling of pressure in my
head, neck and behind my eyes. Also lower Back and neck pain, Lung discomfort and I was
underweight for a long time. I had low motivation, needed to sleep or lie down a lot.
I was sensitive to foods, chemicals, electrical radiation, and pollution and was generally
lethargic, cold most of the time and had constant sugar cravings. My symptoms felt so
bad and unrelenting that my main fear was they may be permanent, but the thing which got
me pointed in the right direction is when, at my lowest point, my Mother gave me a
‘crystalhealing’ session, which meant having special rocks strategically put all over me….
who would think? Somehow this lifted the fog and gave me a glimpse of what clarity feels
like and also that clarity helped me attract the answers and solutions I needed. Until then
all this stuff was repulsive woo-woo hippy stuff, but had agreed to it out of sheer
desperation.
The effect wore off quickly but this experience made me determined to do whatever it takes
to get back to that place. There was a sense that if this energy or feeling was to be able to
reside in my body that I needed to get my body in shape and so began an intense exercise
regime (up at 5am for a 5k run, 100 press ups and sit ups, hot/cold showers then later
added an hour at the gym with an ex-army personal trainer) which despite being good
intentioned, was more than my abused and exhausted body could handle and I developed
chronic fatigue. After that was dengue fever. Weight loss and fatigue were made worse by
water fasting which was my attempt to fix my digestion, heal my and conquer sugar
cravings, but here again, my body was not in a fit state and after an ill-advised 21 day fast,
ended up in hospital for 2 weeks. While recovering and about two years later, I broke my
leg and got blood clots in my lungs and was diagnosed with blood clotting disorders.
It was whilst on crutches that the theories discussed in the book, were introduced to me
and since then it has been a process of mental and physical detoxification, addressing
deficiencies and rebuilding my mind and body from the ground up. In my case there was a
huge amount of momentum in the direction of (mental, physical and emotional) acidity,
toxicity and general discouragement that it really has taken a while to fully turn things
around and stabilize on this new trajectory so as to be free from discomfort and able to
contribute to the world.
My one regret is that I didn’t take the 6 months as advised by Dr Young (my health was an
extreme case), to fully heal my gut with a liquid only diet. I got back from the US and
rushed straight into doing my 100 case studies and then travelling the country, excitedly
trying to share this information with others. I tried to live on only juices but despite feeling
really good, would also feel cold and very spaced out. My health was in limbo for years and I
was just able to sustain myself at an ok level, using supplements to prop myself up but
eventually it caught up with me to the point where my hair was starting to go grey at 27 and
I had to put the brakes on and learn patience!
Now, having mended my own health, I want to pass on this experience so that it can benefit
as many others as possible.
Once you stabilize body pH and the electron balance of the blood, tastes will change,
cravings will disappear (sugar cravings simply mean you lack minerals and energy/electrons)
and you will wonder why you never knew about this before. You won't get colds or flu as
germs only get a foothold in an acidic terrain. Just as mosquitos gather round stagnant
water. Most of all, you will have the confidence to control your health. I could just say “eat
more veg” but I want you to really understand your health better than 99% of the experts.
Conclusion:
Well done for making it this far and thank you for taking the time to read all this information
and letting me share my views with you. My aim when writing was to be fair and balanced
as possible and to make this lifestyle seem approachable. This is not meant to be a scientific
document and I’m not pretending to be a scientist or medical professional, it’s just my
attempt at distilling what are in my view, the most interesting and relevant parts of Dr
Young’s research, into an easy-to-understand format. I will also say that I believe in all the
other fantastic healing modalities including herbalism, energy medicine and so on, but
everything will be more effective and long lasting is the nutritional foundation is correct.
My intention is to keep adding to this book and make it more comprehensive and also to
work on providing proper diet/supplement protocols (possibly in video format) with
detailed information on how a person might implement changes with confidence. In the
meantime, feel free to email me and I will do my best to notify you of any new
developments and/or projects.
If you would like to be healthy, free from dis-ease, energized and full of beans you will need
to think outside the box and take your health into your own hands because the majority of
humanity are not getting the results you are looking for…. follow the herd at your own risk.
Information exists which will allow you to be healthy, but certain people clearly feel that the
flow of this information must be controlled otherwise global population would increase
dramatically and people would begin asking for a different way of life, beyond what we are
currently being offered (billions of people turning their noses up at mass produced crops,
such as corn and wheat, plus giving up dairy and meat would have big implications for the
global system).
So good health is not going to be given willingly to ‘the masses’, we have to actively seek it
and find the information outside of the mainstream. The corporations who bought
government and who control the media, care not about the populace. As we lead by
example, others inevitably follow and this is how change will occur, in our health and also in
the priorities and values of humanity. If you don’t want to be a statistic, then you need to
take responsibility for your own health.
If people knew the truth about where blood is produced, that it is made from the food we
eat, if they knew that the stomach is not supposed to be acidic and if they understood the
true cause of obesity and chronic degenerative diseases then they would behave differently.
But people don’t understand so they eat things that they wouldn’t otherwise eat. Then
when they get sick they accept information and treatments which they wouldn’t otherwise
accept.
"Even if you are a minority of one, the truth is the truth." - Mahatma Gandhi
“The truth is like a lion. You don’t have to defend it. Just let it loose. It will defend itself” St
Augustine.
“To keep the body in good health is a duty... otherwise we shall not be able to keep our
mind strong and clear”. - Buddha
I know a man who gave up smoking, drinking, sex, and rich food. He was healthy right up to
the day he killed himself. - Johnny Carson (just kidding!)
The ‘Cautious-start’ dose: Take a quarter scoop of greens plus 1 or 2 drops of pH solution
per litre of water (just halve the dose if you can only manage drinking half a litre of liquid in
one go) Monitor the reaction in your body – if you feel fine then, as each day passes you can
start adding more greens powder to each green drink you make. If you feel confident from
the start, then you may want to experiment with stronger doses right away. Before long
you can build up to the full maximum dose of 5 pH drops per litre too.
Some signs of a detox reaction include headaches, runny nose, flu-like symptoms,
frequent loose bowel movements, skin eruptions.
If you experience any of the above symptoms it is perfectly safe and natural. It means that
old stores of toxins in the body are being mobilized into the blood for elimination.
However, to avoid discomfort, if you think you may be ‘detoxing’ too fast, just lower the
dose and the symptom/s should pass quickly. Over time as your body becomes more
alkaline and cleansed, you will have no trouble tolerating the full doses as described on the
product containers (1x scoop greens per litre and 5 x pH drops per litre)
Once you are well and truly used to the greens and pH drops you can start to increase the
dose to really speed up the process of alkalizing and energizing. One scoop per litre is a
great maintenance dose but if you have a health challenge or if you need increased nutrition
for sport or exercise then it is advised that you use 2-3 scoops per litre. So basically, start
off with ¼ scoop of greens with 1 or 2 drops of pH liquid per litre and build up over time to
taking 1-3 scoops of greens with up to 5 pH drops per litre. You can skip the pH drops if you
are using good alkaline water if you want.
Some examples of what you may experience from the greens: Increased energy, reduced
cravings for sugar, caffeine etc. Desire to eat healthy food. Better sleep (this is very
common, not least due to increased hydration). Start losing weight. Start gaining weight (if
needed)
PLEASE NOTE: The dormant factors in powdered greens become activated once introduced
to water and so should be consumed within 30-40 minutes, best within the first 10 mins.
Never take more than 5 drops of pH drops per litre. You can however drink many litres per
day… 4 or 5 litres is a good amount if you want to really accelerate progress.
Supergreens and pH drops – this combo is useful for every single pattern that can be seen in
the blood during blood analysis. It makes my job as a nutritionist easier, as even if this is the
only thing you take, the blood will improve. It works by improving blood-flow and
oxygenation. It is ionized so it restores the negative charge to the blood cells so they are
able to repel instead of clumping. It adds chlorophyll for building haemoglobin. It is full of
alkalizing and cleansing herbs. I have seen yeast, platelets aggregation, acid crystals,
clumping, liver stress and every other pattern in the blood improve just by drinking
Supergreens. These are the ingredients (but it’s also the fact that the formula is ionized
which makes it special):
Kamet Grass, Barley Grass, Lemon Grass, Shave Grass, Wheat Grass, Bilberry leaf, Alfalfa
Leaf, Dandelion Leaf, Black Walnut Leaf, Blackberry Leaf, Plantain Leaf, Red Raspberry Leaf,
Boldodo Leaf, Papaya Leaf, Strawberry Leaf, Rosemary Leaf, White Willow Bark, Blueberry
Leaf, Slippery Elm Bark, Marshmallow Root, Pau D’Arco Bark, Beta Carotene, Rose Hips
(Rose Canina) Fruit, Couch Grass, Meadowsweet Herb, Oat Grass, Soy Sporuts, Kale Leaf,
Spinach, Okra (Abelmoschus Esculentus) Fruit, Cabbage Herb, Celery Seed, Parsley Leaf,

The following cleanse schedule outlines a typical day on an alkaline diet/alkaline cleanse
and includes the proper use of mineral salts used throughout the day. You can adapt the
schedule to suit you, but this just gives you some idea of what to do and when. You don’t
need to do the pH testing or use the supplements as they are optional and you can instead
just have 2 or 3 juiced or blended meals per day with plenty of ionized water in between,
as highlighted in green below.
7:00 am: Test the pH of your urine with a pH Test Strip. If the urine pH is below 7.2 take 2
teaspoons of 4 Salts powder (or sodium/potassium bicarbonate) in 5 ounces of water.
7:15 am: 1 litre of ionized water/with green powder added, body temperature or higher.
7:30 am: Liquid colloidal supplements (optional)
8:00 am: Juice or smoothie and capsule supplements (optional)
9:00–Noon: 1.5 litres of ionized water or with added concentrated green powder and pH
drops or liquid chlorophyll (optional)
Noon: Test the pH or your urine and saliva with a pH Test Strip. If either is below 7.2 take 2
teaspoons of 4-Salts in 5 ounces of ionized water.
12:30 pm: Liquid colloidal supplements (optional)
1:00 pm: Raw soup, juice or smoothie and (optional) capsule supplements
2:00–5:00 pm: 1.5 litres alkaline water or with (optional) added concentrated green
powder and pH drops or chlorophyll
5:00 pm: Test the pH of your urine with a pH Test Strip. If the urine pH is below 7.2 then
take 2 to 3 teaspoons of 4-Salts in 5 to 6 ounces of water.
5:30 pm: Liquid colloidal supplements (optional)
6:00 pm: Raw Soup, juice or smoothie and (optional) capsule supplements
7:00–9:00 pm: Alkaline water.
9:00 pm: Test the pH of your urine with a pH Test Strip. If the urine pH is below 7.2 take 2
teaspoons of 4-Salts in 5 ounces of water.
Try juicing cucumber, kale, broccoli, celery, lettuce, chard, spinach, when you're juicing you
can use carrot or beet to sweeten the taste; but, they contain sugar, so you always want to
use them moderately. If you are dealing with an acute condition, you don't want to use them
at all.
# 3. Acid/Alkaline Saliva and Urine Test:
1. First, upon waking test your saliva with the pHydrion paper (pH testing strips; can be
bought online). When you get out of bed, lick and wet the end of a pH test strip with your
saliva. Note the colour change and write down the pH number. Do this before brushing your
teeth, drinking, smoking, or even thinking of eating any food. The optimum saliva pH should
be 7.2.
2. Next, test your first urine of the morning. This is urine that has been stored in your
bladder during the night that is ready to be eliminated when you get up. You need to pee on
a strip of pH paper, note the colour change and write down the pH number. The first urine
should run optimally between a pH 6.8 to 7.2. If your first urine pH is lower than 6.8 you are
deficient in alkaline buffers and need to move to a more alkaline diet rich in fresh green
vegetables and fruits. If your first urine pH is higher than 7.2 your alkaline buffers are
sufficient to neutralize the acidic foods and drinks you ingested the day before. To balance
the pH of the urine you need to move away from acidic foods and drinks and begin ingesting
liberal amounts of electron rich green vegetables, low sugar fruits and healthy
polyunsaturated fats.
3. Next, test your second morning urine before eating any food. This number should be
the pH of your second urine after you have eliminated the acid load from the day before.
The acids should be gone the second time you go to the bathroom so your urine pH should
be ideally 7.2 or higher. If the pH is lower than 6.8 then you are in a state of latent tissue
acidosis and you are deficient of alkaline buffers such as bicarbonate, sodium, potassium,
magnesium and calcium. The lower pH is also indicative of a diet high in protein and an
increase in acids from proteins including nitric, sulphuric, phosphoric and uric acids.
Eliminate from the diet proteins from beef, chicken, turkey, pork and fish to normalize pH at
7.2 while eating liberal amounts of green foods and green drinks and healthy
polyunsaturated fats.
4. For breakfast eat an avocado soup, vegetable soup, the healing soup or drink some
fresh almond milk or a fresh green drink. Wait five minutes and then check your urine and
saliva again. Write these pH numbers down also. The pH numbers will go up from the first
and second morning urine and saliva if you have sufficient alkaline reserves to buffer acids.
If you do not have sufficient reserves then the pH numbers will show very little change or
even go down from the early morning pH numbers.
5. Make sure you check your urine and saliva pH between meals, i.e., between
breakfast and lunch and between lunch and dinner. The pH should always be between 7.2
to 8.4, right after meals and between 6.8 to 7.2 a couple of hours after meals.
The five tests above show the following:
1. The efficiency of the digestive system to deal with what you ate the night before,
i.e., the first and second AM urine and saliva pH. These numbers will change from day to day
if you are living an eating acidic. When you begin the ‘pH Miracle Living Plan’ you will see
the pH of the urine and saliva become more constant and balanced at a pH of 7.2 or higher.
2. How well you treat yourself in general, i.e., how 'strong' the salivary glands,
stomach, pancreas, gallbladder and liver are in dealing with excess acidity. This is once again
the AM urine and saliva pH. This number shows the overall state of your health, the
condition of the alkaline reserve of your body which reflects the diet you have been eating
over the last months and years. This pH number stays rather constant and will only change
after some work has been done in alkalizing and energizing the body as outlined in the pH
Miracle books. Since the saliva and urine pH is an indicator of intracellular pH, saliva and
urine pH readings should never be below the pH of the phosphate buffer system, 6.8. (See
below).
The most accurate readings of saliva and urine pH is recorded immediately upon awakening-
after sleeping at least five hours and before brushing your teeth.
It is during sleep that the body removes waste and is in an anabolic state restoring and
replenishing the body. For example, if you have a saliva or urine pH of 5.5 and only 5.6 after
eating, you know that you are deficient in alkaline reserve and your body is devoid of the
minerals necessary to process food properly -- your body cannot adequately respond to the
physiological crisis of handling food or drink that is acidic.
3. The pH of your saliva and urine after you eat or drink gives you an indication of your
alkaline mineral reserves and your body's ability to deal with the acid residues created from
the digestion of that food or drink. It is normal for your pH number to increase after you eat
or drink not stay static or decrease. A decrease, once again indicates your inability to deal
with acid, the deficiency of alkaline reserves and the build-up of latent tissue acidosis. Even
if you think of a food like an avocado or a lemon the pH of your saliva should increase by a
whole point. This simple test indicates you have sufficient alkaline reserve minerals to pull
into your digestive system to begin the digestive and alkaline buffering process.
The ideal urine and saliva pH pattern is 7.2 on awakening, 6.8 to 7.2 before eating and 7.2 to
8.5 following any alkaline meal or drink. A simple test can be done at most any time of the
day by eating a few almonds.
This will check the adequacy of the alkaline reserve of the body. When a healthy person
with adequate alkaline reserves eats a few almonds, the saliva pH almost immediately goes
up to a pH of 8.4. The more acidic the food that is eaten, the more rapid the response of the
alkaline reserve, and the higher the saliva pH should be following a meal.
4. The pH of the saliva and urine between meals should be kept in the basic range, pH
7.2 or higher. After one eats, the stomach releases its necessary sodium bicarbonate to help
alkalize the food. While doing this action, it also makes an equivalent amount of base or
baking soda, sodium bicarbonate that is picked up by the blood stream and delivered to the
alkaline glands of the body, the saliva, the pancreas, the gallbladder, the pylorus glands in
the duodenum and the liver. The maximum amount of base in the blood and therefore in
the urine and saliva occurs one to two hours after you eat.
This rhythm of the acid and base flow of the body is called by Frederick F. Sander, the
Basefloods and the Base-tides of the Acid-Base household. This information was first
published in 1930, by Frederick F. Sander, a German scientist, in a book called, The Acid-
Base Household of the Human Organism and its cooperation with the nail circulation and
the rhythm of the Liver. In his book he states that the body fluids and therefore the urine is
most acid at 2:00 A.M. (pH 5.0 to 6.8) in the morning (the base tide) and most alkaline at
2:00 P.M. (pH 7.0 to 8.5) in the afternoon (base flood).
'The ideal pH numbers depend on the time of day. Plotted on a curve it looks like the double
hump of the back of a camel. Two times a day the urine should be alkaline and that is the top
of the humps and corresponds to 10 A.M. and 2 P.M., the alkaline tide after meals. During the
rest of the day the pH should be between 6.8 and 7.2. This is optimal urine. The first urine in
the morning should be more acidic because of the decalcification that takes place during the
night in neutralizing excess acids.'
If all the acids generated in a day from digestion, respiration, metabolism and degeneration
are not all flushed out during the night they accumulate, day after day. The results are the
expression of states of imbalance as the body desperately tries to maintain the alkaline fluid
pH at 7.365. The day to day build-up of acids affects each of us differently depending on our
genetics, lifestyle and diet. I have found that acids settle in the weakest parts of the body
and if not eliminated through the bowels, urinary system, lungs or skin, acids are then
bound to fat and stored on our hips, thighs, stomach, breasts and brain. Bottom-line acids
are the expression of all symptomologies and the direct cause of ALL sickness and disease.
Monitoring your saliva and urine pH puts the responsibility of caring for your health back
into your hands. Measuring the saliva and urine pH guides your therapy and shows you how
living, eating and drinking determines the quality and quantity of your life.
You should monitor your saliva and urine each day for at least 12 weeks or until you
establish your balanced pH at 7.2. Once you have established a balanced saliva and urine pH
at 7.2 you can reduce the number of tests to once a day or 2 to 3 times a week.
#4. Essential Fatty Acids: (see page 123 for more about fats)
They are essential because the body cannot make or manufacture them.
These oils are used for cell construction (every cell has a membrane made of fat, so you
need to consume good fats if you want healthy red blood cells as seen in live blood
analysis). They are used to buffer or neutralize acids in the body. They are needed for the
brain and nervous system, hormones, fertility, skin – just about every important function in
the body requires good fats:
The following challenges have been correlated with low levels of essential fatty acids:
Reduced brain function, inflammation, cholesterol problems, high blood pressure, heart
disease, diabetes, arthritis, depression, bi polar, schizophrenia, ADHD, skin
problems/psoriasis, IBS, asthma, macular degeneration, menstrual pain, breast cancer,
colon cancer, prostate cancer.
Raw, high quality plant oils/lipids will never harm you, however a deficiency in good fats can
make you overweight and sick as you need good dietary fats to have balanced hormones.
Topping up your oil levels will make a drastic difference to your health and how you feel.
These oils are present in nuts, seeds and oily fish. Most people are very deficient in EFA’s
due to poor diet and also the fact that cooking will destroy/denature these oils. I have
heard it said that technically you can meet minimum requirements for omega 3 on a fruit
based diet, but I don’t know this as a fact.
I recommend using an oil supplement for building red blood cells (3 billion cells born per
second, each one requires oil) as even a healthy diet will not provide nearly enough to
compensate for years of deficiency. Contrary to what you are told, eating oily fish is not
sufficient and the heat from cooking will denature the oils too.
The problem is finding good oils. it is difficult to press oils without them oxidizing or turning
rancid. Once oil is pressed from a seed, it is no longer protected by the seed’s hull and will
react with oxygen. If there is any heat, air or light in the manufacturing process and it will
go rancid/oxidize. The equipment required to press oil properly is very expensive so most
people do it the ‘cheap and cheerful’ way, then label it 'cold pressed' (the laws are very
relaxed on labelling – and they can call anything ‘cold pressed’ if they wish). Shockingly most
oil is rancid before it even arrives at the shop and has a bitter, rancid taste. It may come as
a surprise to you but flax oil is not supposed to taste bitter! It should have a lovely smooth
nutty taste. Possibly the best option is to buy an electric oil press, and make your own oil
in small batches and freeze or refrigerate straight away and use each batch within a few
days.
One company called Andreas’ Seed Oils, uses special technology (to produce their bottled
oils) which can press oil with zero oxidation. The oil is so good that it doesn’t even require
refrigeration and this is the absolute best oil available. Their chia seed oil has the correct
ratio of omega 3 and 6…but it is very expensive. The owner, Ex Olympic athlete Andreas
Wecker was “shown in a dream” how to build a machine which would press oil with zero
oxidation. I can confirm that the oil is indeed perfect…although it is expensive.
Also ‘Food’s Alive’ is another brand using somewhat superior technology. Although the oil is
not as stable as Panaseeda, the company has a high turnover of stock and so the oils are
fresh meaning that oxidation levels are low. I needs to be kept in the fridge and can also be
frozen and thawed as many times as you want to prolong freshness.
Next is the widely available Udo’s Choice (and similar such as Barlean’s). If it is bitter
tasting, then it is rancid and you should return it for a refund. This oil is good enough for me
to be able to recommend it although the oil is stabilized using antioxidants and by flushing
oxygen residues out of the oil in the bottling process. It’s less than perfect, but good
enough if just using a few spoonsful per day. If its bitter, then it hasn’t been stored
properly. Ideally buy from frozen, but if the shop doesn’t freeze the oil then it must at least
be from the refrigerator. Once at home, store it in fridge, don’t leave the lid off bottle for
long, and don’t expose to direct light. If you are going away for a while you can freeze the
bottle and thaw on your return. You can freeze/thaw the oil as many times as you want. If
using Udo's oil on cooked food, just wait for the food to cool down a bit first otherwise heat
will cause the oil to begin oxidizing. You can use it in fresh dressings or take straight off the
spoon.
A great way to consume oil is to have a salad and drizzle the oil (2 tbs) over the top, then
squeeze some lemon and add a sprinkle of salt. Or you can do the same with a plate of non-
starchy veg such as steamed greens and broccoli once it has cooled down a bit.

#5. Liver flushing:
The idea of doing a liver-flush is to push out the old accumulations of coagulated bile which
can build up in the bile ducts. Basically, when there is more acid and poison in your day-to-
day life than the body can eliminate (drugs, medication, poor diet) then wastes get solidified
and become stuck in the liver. Because of this congestion, the flow of bile is reduced,
digestion becomes impaired and this can be reflected in a person’s overall health. A ‘liver
flush’ involves taking Epsom salts to temporarily widen or dilate the bile ducts, then
consuming some olive oil mixed with grapefruit juice, which triggers the sudden release of
bile through the liver, and this tidal wave effect easily pushes all solid obstructions out of
the dilated bile ducts and into the intestine for elimination. It is a very simple procedure
but I will give full details further on. Liver flushing on YouTube:
http://youtu.be/DnnlnAsRP20
After cleaning my liver, which required me to repeat this procedure a number of times due
to all the drugs and junk food I had used, I noticed that my breathing had improved. My
liver was so congested that it had been obstructing my right lung because the liver was too
large from being full of old accumulations. Once the liver was back to its normal size my
lungs could inflate fully on both sides. My digestion of fats and other foods improved
significantly and there were no more twinges in the liver area. I instantly lost interest in
coffee and my health and energy improved. Also, my chemical sensitivities massively
improved to the point where paint and other fumes don’t give me headaches. In general,
right after each liver flush, I felt cleaner and fresher and like my body had been restored to a
better level of health.
If you are someone who regularly cleanses/detoxes but never feel fully cleansed and often
swing or yoyo between clean eating and ‘dirty’ food, then you may just need a good colon
or liver flush. When you have a large amount of old acidic junk lodged in your body
(including old emotional toxicity which is held in the liver and colon) you will never fully feel
cleansed, even on a raw diet as you will still be resonating with foods which have the same
makeup as the acidic residues in your body. People may view you as obsessive, orthorexic
and so on, but in many cases the cause is more physical than it is psychological. If this
sounds like you, then ignore the doubters, trust your own instincts and the messages given
by your body and work towards doing a deep-clean of the liver and colon.
Before you try this flush you should know I have been on a vegan diet for a long time. I was
still having one coffee per day at time of starting the flushes but as my body was generally
very healthy and I was taking good alkaline supplements, I didn’t have too much trouble
doing 20 or more flushes over a 6-month period. Sometimes I would even do 3 in a row for
example Friday night, Saturday night, and then again on Sunday night although I am NOT
suggesting that anyone else tries this. It is important to monitor how you feel as everyone
will react differently; you might be very hardy and find this process very easy or you may
need to go more slowly. The standard advice is to leave several weeks between flushes.
The flush will put extra demands on your body so it’s best to do on a weekend or whenever
you have less workload and more time to relax. Avoid hard exercise for a few days or until
you feel your body has recovered. The Epsom salts will drain some electrolytes and those
need to be replaced by eating well. The salts also dehydrate the intestines so again
hydration and vegetables/juices are needed to recover properly.
Preparation: For 5 days you should have no sugar, chocolate or coffee, or at the very least
avoid these for 2 days. Avoid animal products, non-organic and junk food in general. At this
time, I ate mostly steamed veg and grains like millet, quinoa, spelt, buckwheat and lentils,
green smoothies and soups would be good too. Drink plenty of good ionized water. Also for
5 days before the flush you should drink a couple glasses of apple juice (fresh if possible
otherwise packaged is okay) per day, as there are specific acids in apple juice that will soften
the liver/gall stones so that they pass easily. Otherwise to avoid all that fruit sugar you can
use malic acid tablets instead of the juice.
Flush day: On the day of the flush you eat breakfast such as veg and some low-acid grain
(buckwheat, quinoa, millet) or sweet potato. Or, a large amount of fresh vegetable juice.
For lunch it is best to just have veg like sweet potato but having grain again is okay and you
eat your lunch sometime between midday and 1pm (with no food eaten past 2pm). Chew
food thoroughly or just blend it into a soup. You must eat zero fat on day of flush, so no
dairy, no avocado, no olive oil etc. No fat with your breakfast or lunch. When we eat fat
the gallbladder releases bile into the intestine to digest the fat. You want the gallbladder to
be full to the brim of bile so that later, when you drink the olive oil, there is maximum
pressure for forcing the stones out. If you eat fat on the flush day, you lose all your bile.
So its breakfast in the morning, then lunch around 1pm. Drink some water before breakfast
and between meals (several litres in total on the flush day).
Then, at 5pm take 2 teaspoons of Magnesium oxide which can optionally be mixed with
some buffered vitamin C powder (50/50 mix) in about 10 Oz of water. So it’s 1 tsp mag
oxide with 1 tsp Vit C or, just 2 teaspoons of plain magnesium oxide with no vitamin C. 10-
20 mins later (or at about 5.30) drink a good amount of warmish water and make sure you
can quickly access a toilet once it takes effect. Magnesium oxide will empty your bowels so
that when you do the liver flush, the stones will be able to pass without obstruction. You
can do colonics/enemas if you prefer)
Next, dissolve 4 tablespoons of Epsom salts into 750ml of water. This will make 4 x equal
servings of about 185ml each)
6pm take one 185ml serving of your Epsom salt solution (this dilates the bile ducts in the
liver) 20 mins later Drink lots of warmish water to really flush your bowels and to replace
the water that you are losing as water should be going straight through you like a racehorse
at this stage. You can and should drink more water, but should stop drinking by 7:30 8pm
take another serving of Epsom salts solution (this again dilates the bile ducts in the liver). 20
mins later drink more warm water. You can and should drink more water, but stop drinking
by 9:30.
10pm – This is the part of the procedure where you drink the oil and grapefruit mix. This is
made by mixing 125ml of good quality olive oil with about 225ml grapefruit juice. Put the
oil and grapefruit in a bottle and shake hard, you can shake again when the oil separates.
Drink it whilst standing by your bedside, being sure to get it all down within 5 minutes (hold
nose if necessary, but I actually quite enjoy drinking it!) and then get straight into bed. Lie
down flat on your back with head elevated on 2 pillows. Do not change position for at least
an hour. Relax your mind. You may feel the stones travelling out of your liver into the
intestine. If you feel nauseous, try to ride it out as this means you are passing large stones.
Avoid moving too much/going to toilet in the night. If you have drunk sufficient water up
until 9:30 as instructed your bowels should have eliminated everything and so you should
not have the urge to go to the toilet in the night.
Following morning 6am – go to the toilet, you may notice that you pass some stones. Then
drink another 185 ml dose of Epsom salts, or instead, take 1-2 tsp of magnesium oxide. (I
prefer the magnesium oxide option myself as it tastes better and it is healthier too).
8am – final dose of Epsom salts, or again use magnesium oxide.
You will go to the toilet lots in the morning and should see stones floating in the toilet like
the ones in my pictures.
Lunch at 12pm of steamed vegetables. Keep it low fat for a little while.
Prepare the oil and grapefruit 10 minutes before 10pm and have it ready by your bedside.
Drink it and lie down right away – if it’s not all down in 5 minutes you may not get any
stones out. Make sure you have prepared for bed and have done everything by 10pm.
Don’t drink cold water at any stage in this procedure as this chills the liver and you may
not get any stones out.
Your first flush is the hardest as you wonder if you’ve done everything right and you’re not
sure if you’ll get any stones out, but after the first flush it gets easier.
It is best to do any detoxing when the moon is waning and also, spring/summer and autumn
are best times of year.
After a few flushes I no longer wanted coffee and still do not ever crave it.
You will feel like a different person after the cleanse and many people report massive
changes in their health. Cravings, allergies and health problems can improve or reverse and
digestion will improve. It helps with clearing yeast, fungi, and parasites by improving the
drainage and elimination of acid wastes. Do the basic groundwork first by following a good
diet for a while and then look to do a colon cleanse if/when you feel ready.
Clay which is used in the cleanse, is alkaline and has a powerful effect on healing and
cleansing the small intestine (where blood cells are produced)
Good mental and emotional health begins in the colon. If the gut is filled with junk, this will
affect your mood/emotions and the quality of your thoughts. Dr Young refers to the
intestines as the primary brain and if there is a problem here such as constipation and
toxicity, it will cause anxiety and stress.
An oxygen-based colon cleanser such as magnesium oxide will help to break down
undigested proteins. But to remove hardened mucus then you may want to fast on water or
green juices and consume clay, psyllium and colon cleansing herbs such as cascara. Dr
Morse’s GI Broom formula is a great product and this will pull mucus from the gut.
The ‘Master Fast System’ group on facebook might be a good resource if you are interested
in colon cleansing at a deep level.
# 7. Cannabis and hemp - Okay, so I never thought I would see the day where I
write that cannabis is healthy but I will explain my position on this subject as the medical
benefits can’t be ignored.
I had tried to quit smoking cannabis practically every day for over a year when I was 19 (and
had been uncomfortable with the effect it was having on me since long before that), but
failed every time because of the grip it seemed to have on me. Also the symptoms of
amplified mental fogginess persisted for many years after quitting. As a result, I have
always viewed cannabis with at least some suspicion (and even fear) and for the longest
time I saw it as something bad. But, I now realise that it is actually a medicine (and/or food)
which can offer tremendous healing effects. When abused, or used as a drug, it can create
problems.
Cannabis is alkalizing, but smoking/heating causes it to become more acidic and when
combined with tobacco (containing 3000 plus added chemical carcinogens) and rolling
paper (containing paraffin) things get even worse, not to mention hybridization which
increases chances of psychosis. However, raw cannabis when juiced is totally non
psychoactive and will not make you high. This amazing video explains how even regular
cannabis won’t make you high, in any way, if it is juiced raw - http://youtu.be/7xPmR8j4plw
There are no negative effects of raw cannabis, only benefits. If you live in a country where
cannabis is controlled and not available to you, you can just use hemp or a hemp derivative
like CBD oil. CBD is the Anti-psychotic component in cannabis which counteracts and
balances the high which cannabis smokers get from THC. CBD content is lower in modern
strains of marijuana due to hybridization which is one reason people can develop mental
problems when smoking pot. CBD has many other healing properties (besides being anti-
anxiety and anti-psychotic) and will stimulate healing in the body (by stimulating the
endocannabinoid system) but will also naturally relax you (without getting you high) and has
a range of mental/emotional benefits.
This video shows marijuana’s ability to stop seizures and muscle spasms:

8#. How to use clay, sodium bicarbonate, charcoal.
Clay can absorb many times it’s own weight in acid. Charcoal can also absorb a lot of poison and
toxicity from the blood. Sodium bicarbonate can buffer acidity.
First thing in the morning, Drink 5 oz water with 1 x tsp sodium bicarb (you can buy food grade
potassium bicarbonate on amazon and combine with sodium bicarb at about 50/50 ratio... this
is a brilliant combo)
A little while later drink up to a litre of 'clayish water' - which is 1 tsp of clay soaked overnight in
water. 400ml of water up to 1000ml (1 litre) is a good amount. (Advanced users will take clay
with significantly less water.. but it's best to err on side of caution, clay can be constipating if
you are dehydrated). The aim is to get benefits of clay and also hydration. Also be sure to use
wood or plastic spoon.. metal should not come into contact with the clay.. don't use a metal
drinking bottle. You will need to stir or shake the container as clay will settle to the bottom
overnight (clay needs 8-12 hrs to activate and come alive!)
30 mins later take 1-3 tsp of psyllium and charcoal (10 parts psyllium to 1 part charcoal is a
good ratio; pre-mix the psyllium and charcoal powders and keep in a separate container. Take it
straight off the spoon with a pint of water or stir into the water.
Optionally you can mix the clay, psyllium and charcoal together and then drink some plain water
straight after. Ie 1 tsp clay soaked overnight in 16oz of water in a jar, add the psyllium and
charcoal and shake then drink straight away. Follow with a pint of water.
As a general rule, you should wait a couple hours after eating before taking clay or charcoal. If
you eat something acidic or unhealthy, take psyllium and charcoal with up to a pint of water at
some stage soon after eating as this will soak up some of the toxicity and stop it being
absorbed.
The key is to remain hydrated throughout the day. Clay and psyllium absorb water so you must
make sure these substances don't 'dry out' inside your digestive system. Aim for high water
content foods too.
When colon-cleansing, you can take clay psyllium and charcoal several times per day along with
colon cleansing herbs.

Arginine:
L-arginine is an amino acid which converts to nitric oxide. This increases bloodflow to all
areas of the body. The man who discovered it won a Nobel Prize and the cardiovascular
benefits are huge. It is possible to clean and clear the veins and arteries with this substance.
Iodine:
Iodine is so important for every cell in the body, and the present government RDA is
ridiculously low and is barely enough to prevent iodine deficiency symptoms in the thyroid...
but not nearly enough for full iodine sufficiency of thyroid plus every other cell in the body
needs iodine. Also, breasts and prostate are hungry for iodine and there is a big connection
between iodine deficiency and cancer of these glands.

How should I approach this lifestyle?
First thing is to decide what your goals are. Are you a bit of an extremist looking to explore
your own potential, or achieve the highest level of health, fitness and natural-highs
possible? Or maybe you simply want to reverse your symptoms, feel more energetic and
get a bit leaner? This isn’t meant to be some elitist, master-race type thing, it’s about having
options and choices. You can treat this as a cleanse that you do for a few days each year, or
a lifestyle that you adopt permanently.
I was raised a vegetarian, so for example it’s easy for me to say to reduce or avoid many
animal products as I have no emotional attachment to them, nor do I have the psychological
conditioning which says that the eating of animal protein is essential for strength, but the
reality is that for whatever reason, many people do not want to change their diet too
radically and I fully understand. In my opinion meat and dairy have some addictive
properties and as a result some people say they feel weaker when they give it up. Animal
products can mask deficiencies, parasites and underlying health issues, a bit like papering
over the cracks, so when you stop eating animal products you experience yourself, with
your various deficiencies but without the narcotic numbing and/or stimulating effect. This
can feel uncomfortable and it feeds the suspicion that you might be getting ‘protein
deficient’. There is also the placebo effect to consider whereby people are told from day
one that they will get sick if they don’t eat meat and so the psychology has a big influence
on how people respond to going vegetarian. Another huge factor is that people give up
meat and then switch to a vegan diet which is severely lacking in certain essential elements
and whilst I maintain that animal products are not essential for health, you don’t have to
stop eating it unless you decide to and a lot can be achieved by just cleaning up your diet
and drinking more water.
In general, my view is that a good, high-fat diet which includes a sensible amount of fatty
meat is, on balance, going to be far better for your body than a junk food and/or poorly
constructed vegan/vegetarian diet. For instance, the ketogenic diet is a good clean diet in
the sense that it focuses on whole, natural foods and it trains your body to burn fat which is
an extremely efficient source of energy. I would say that it would be an idea to reduce meat
intake to small portions eaten maybe every other day, do a good intestinal cleanse once or
twice a year and to hydrate with alkaline fluids to compensate for the acidity (and include
some alkaline salts each day). As always, my recommendation is to blend meat or fish with
vegetables in a blender and to have it in the form of a soup (this optional of course). If you
are going to include animal products, you should aim to keep carbs low (no grains, fruits,
starches, sugars, except those naturally present in leafy greens). High-fat, high-raw, vegan
alkaline diet is the best long-term choice in my opinion though.
Whatever you decide, it is much, much better to be consistent with a good, wholefoods diet
than to yoyo-diet trying to be perfect and then bingeing on all the foods you have been
missing – this just shocks and confuses the body. It takes time to change and so don’t try to
be perfect right from the start. Just keep improving, one step at a time, learning and
experimenting with new foods. You will find that cravings for unhealthy foods will reduce
and that you are attracted to healthier choices (which may actually sound a bit scary! as we
often have emotional attachments to certain foods and the idea of not wanting to be
addicted to them anymore might be daunting as it’s like the thought of losing a very familiar
friend). Either way it’s all about increasing electrons/conductivity and alkalinity as easily as
possible.
It has taken me over 10 years of consistent effort to get good at applying the principles of
this diet and lifestyle (and working through my own addictions, attitudes, emotions, issues
ups and downs etc.), so don’t expect to be able to grasp and apply everything right away
unless you are already in a very good place holistically speaking. Do the basics first which
are fairly obvious just from a ‘once-over’ of this book, then build on that in your own time. I
have tried to condense and distil all the most relevant information so as not to overload
you, but have added extra links to articles, online resources and also books
recommendations for you to explore in your own time if you feel curious or inclined to do
so.
Of course, you can be happy and healthy on other diets but this is just about giving you the
option to choose what I think may be the best diet possible and to experience practically
endless energy every day. Also, try not to throw baby out with bathwater, look for what
you agree with and if there is any information with which you disagree, or which makes you
feel uncomfortable then try not to let that stop you learning something new from this book.
Feedback is always, appreciated good or bad. I am always learning so if you have anything
to add then do let me know.
There have been many great people through history who would have had strong genetics and
therefore health, but ate an average diet and still achieved amazing things and lived wonderful
lives. The body has, up to a certain point, developed a clever strategy for dealing with dirt and
toxins to give you a degree of tolerance with your diet and lifestyle – and that’s called flu. If you
don’t maintain a really clean bloodstream every day, you can expect a cold or flu once or twice
per year where your body forces you to go to bed so it can purge. Germs from other people are
not the sole cause of flu, but they can act as a catalyst (ie germs start the process of immune
response and the body thinks “well, while we’re at it, we might as well clean house too). The
annual purge is a bit more stressful for the body, and wild pendulum swings are going to be
harsher than consistency, but it works well enough.
Clean blood has been valued for a long time. Buddhists would have had clean blood with no
food eaten past midday i.e. fasting on water for 18 hrs per day. Religion and spirituality has
always emphasised periods of fasting to facilitate greater connection with God. Part of this is
allowing the blood stream to run clean for a while, meaning less interference with one’s
connection to source.
The main aim of this book is just that you understand the body has certain physiological
requirements and that you must live within certain limits if you want to feel comfortable and
energetic. I found all this info very inspiring and liberating and that is the intention when
sharing this.
If you drink alcohol for examplel, then you can use water/hydration, milk thistle, charcoal, clay
and N-Acetyl cysteine to compensate. If you get ill, understand the true reason why instead of
blaming germs (it's just a purge) – that knowledge is empowering as you are owning your
symptoms as your own creation, instead of blaming germs.
This diet and lifestyle was created to reverse imbalances found during live blood analysis. Many
people are sick and they don’t know why and so the aim is not to be a party-pooper and tell
people not to have fun, but instead to have an avenue which they can explore and potentially
improve their heath if sick, or take health to a higher level if they are currently healthy.
Knowledge is power, if you have options, you can make choices
Or they fail because they just eat salad. People say they ate vegetarian or alkaline for a while
but were just hungry all the time. Animals eat pounds of plant matter daily, the ones that
don’t…. have to eat other animals. You can’t give up your usual animal products and just eat a
bit of salad. You need to juice and blend larger amounts of plant matter and consume plenty of
healthy fats. Meat is easy and convenient, but the convenience of juicing comes when the
benefits are reflected in your mental and physical wellbeing. Your whole life conveniently
becomes a nicer place to be.
Or people fail because they overwhelm themselves and place unrealistic expectations on
themselves. If you go 100 percent alkaline you need to ‘hit the ground running’ and it can be
stressful learning a whole new way of eating/drinking/living in one big move.
If you have a pressing health challenge, then you may want to get extra help and go into a
cleanse/detox right away but otherwise make small changes. Swap 2 things each month for less
acidic options. Swap wheat for spelt. Or spelt for millet. Just head in the right direction, whilst
maintaining a consistently high nutrient intake and with emphasis on alkaline hydration, green
drinks in some form (chlorophyll tablets or liquid), reducing junk food. Starvation fails.
Swapping high-acid food for progressively healthier options will work every time. This
program is about COWS (chlorophyll, oil, water, salt) If you consume more ‘cows’ and eat less
acid, you will be barrelling towards higher levels of health and energy. If you have the luxury of
time, then give yourself a break and get from A to Z in stages. Everyone, without reservation,
can safely dump the Haribo’s, white bread etc. but don't give up your organic meat and steamed
veg and try to survive only on celery.
Basically, drink water, eat clean, consume plenty of good fat each day. This will clean you
out, fire up the furnace and you will lose weight. Losing weight requires energy, if the
furnace (your metabolism) is starved of fuel, it simply won’t burn fat. Moderate exercise is
good. Sprint for 30 seconds, cool down for 3 minutes. Repeat that 8 times and do a bit of
weight training.
You can’t starve yourself to lose weight because if the body is under-fuelled (when ‘dieting’,
fasting, under-eating, over exercising etc) it will turn your own lean muscle into fuel (sugar)
as a quick source of energy. This is why when people under-eat to lose weight, they lose
water and muscle but the belly fat stays put. When you eat more calories from healthy
foods and fat in particular, the body gets good at burning fat instead of sugar and protein,
and so body fat instead of muscle gets burned.
Another aspect of weight loss is detoxification. Fat is there to store acids and poisons, so
you won’t lose weight by eating toxic, low-calorie food….you actually add to fat storage.
Technically no diet can heal you, but the body can heal itself when it has the right tools. The
aim of an alkaline diet is to remove acidity and other hindrances which stand in the way of
the body's innate healing abilities and also to provide the building blocks for repair. I have
seen many 'incurable' illnesses disappear when people give their body the right context for
healing. Instead of focusing on the symptom, we should focus on healing the blood. The
blood supplies the body with life, like a body of water which supplies an entire planet – so it
makes sense to get the blood as healthy as possible. Diet has a huge impact on the blood
which is why good nutrition is so important.
`Why is this diet so restrictive and draconian’?
The restrictive phase is only for a short period of time and is only for people choosing to do
an alkaline cleanse, just long enough to allow the small intestine to heal and regenerate.
You would consume large amounts of food in a liquid/pureed state which in my opinion is
not restrictive because you get to eat the foods with the highest mineral, chlorophyll and
antioxidant content, in a form which is nearly effortless to digest. It’s actually about as
abundant and plentiful as you can imagine, hence why for some people it becomes a
lifestyle.
When you eliminate all the really acid forming and enervating food/drink, it is possible for
your body to reach a level of health which you may not even have believed possible. Even
by making a 50% improvement you will get massive benefits and maybe even live symptom
free – but you are encouraged to work towards making your diet as good as possible as that
is when you experience the energizer-bunny levels of energy and clarity. So you can take
this to the level you are comfortable with but I really hope you get to experience what true
health feels like as health is much more than just the absence of symptoms.
I went from being someone who ate pizza for breakfast to someone who loves green
smoothies and juices because my taste buds changed and also because of the feeling
associated with consuming these living foods. So tastes do change and once the spell is
broken you will find you are not missing the acidic foods and that you don’t feel deprived
without them (and you wonder what you ever saw in those other foods).
It is nice to think that we are looked after by doctors and government or that we can hand
responsibility to someone else, but the truth is you are the only person who can influence
your health for the better and so the only option is to start making small improvements,
which, over time, add up.
There are plenty of people already telling us what we want to hear such as food advertisers,
biased tabloid studies and people selling diets.
What you really need is a wide variety of nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, trace
minerals, chlorophyll, oils, antioxidants, amino acids and plenty of electrical energy
(electrons), all of which are supplied in abundance on an alkaline, plant-based diet. You
need greens and fats for energy and for building strong blood cells which are then used as
building blocks for constructing a strong body. You could live and be very healthy on the
right kinds of green smoothies and juices. In general, the colour to look for when choosing
food is green.
You don’t really need to count calories. Just make sure you are consuming several ounces of
good oils per day and that you are not getting hungry. If you are not fully committed to a
high fat, low carb approach, have a carbohydrate meal for breakfast, and then fats later in
the day.. get plenty of salt and juices too.
The nutrients in meat are second-hand, sure it’s a condensed food and there are useful
nutrients in animal products, but plant foods will give you strong, efficient muscles and
excellent health. Animals eat plants/chlorophyll and convert them into blood, then this new
blood is turned into quality muscle tissue (all meat, one way or the other, is grass or
chlorophyll). You may be better off just copying the animals who are clearly getting
phenomenal results and just eat the plants yourself. Meat is convenience food as its easier
to eat meat than it is to eat chew a stack of leaves each day, but juicing/blending makes it
much easier to consume the large amount of plant matter necessary to maintain and build a
strong body. If you don’t eat meat, you need lots of greens instead so you eat what the
animals are eating, not just tofu, Quorn (Quorn is best avoided, even wild animals turn their
nose up at it), rice, beans. It’s all about chlorophyll, not protein. You can of course do both,
that is to eat a small amount of meat, but also consume plenty of greens and a variety of
healthy fats.
The omega oils in fish were originally derived from the plants that the fish were eating, we
should just eat plants, not the fish. We can convert plant fats to DHA (required for the brain
etc) as long as our diet is clean. Rancid omega 6, sugar and junk food all block conversion.
But fish oil oxidizes in our blood anyway so it doesn’t have much value for us.
Yes, indigenous cultures have eaten meat and have been healthy for a long time, but their
lifestyles are very different; the animals are wild, portions of meat often very small
(negligible by the standards of most western people) and they also focus on broths and the
fatty parts of the animal (also these cultures often include clay in their diet to absorb toxins
in the gut). You can be very healthy on a sensible diet which includes meat but the body can
truly thrive on a well-constructed plant-based diet.
We haven’t really evolved to eat meat (we still have the same digestive tract that we’ve
always had); we have become accustomed to it and adapted to it as it contains nutrients
which have been helpful to our survival, or convenient for society. We pass down the
cellular information/memory of eating meat to the next generation and so it takes a while
to train ourselves to live without it.
Weston Price attributes healthy teeth and bones to indigenous people eating organ meats
etc. But his studies didn’t include the fact that most of these cultures are bare-foot or
otherwise have a lot of contact with the earth/sea meaning they get electrons into their
blood and body as nature intended. When we are not in contact with the earth, calcium
ions are leached from the teeth/bones to compensate. Are humans designed to eat meat:
http://youtu.be/sH-hs2v-UjI
This article covers some interesting points about if we should eat meat:
http://www.healthtalkhawaii.com/blog--articles/meet-your-meat-under-the-clear-wrap
It is debatable in some ways, and you should begin to experiment and see how your body
reacts. The vegan/vegetarian community’s answers to this question are represented below:
Not much is the answer, even the World Health Organization says that only 5% of our
calories need to come from protein sources. The only time we need more is when we are
growing rapidly as a baby and so breast milk is about 7% protein. There isn’t even a medical
term for protein deficiency – only general symptoms associated with starvation and which
are not specific to protein.
Again, gorillas, giraffes and elephants – some of the strongest creatures on the planet do
not eat steak or take protein supplements. Your entire body is made from transformed
blood cells (which are created in the small intestine) and you build the best quality blood
with greens and oils. As long as you are getting a lot of oils and plant matter/chlorophyll
then you really need quite little overt protein, not least because greens are very high in
amino acids anyway. If you eat too much protein it will just get turned into sugar by the
body anyway, producing lots of acid in the process.
With that said, don’t just give up all protein without upping your greens and good fats
though. You need to make sure you get all the oils, greens, minerals and electrons required
(when you unplug from one source, you must ensure you have an alternate energy source)
and you will know when you are ready to reduce your protein because of how the green
juices make your body feel.
Juicing hemp seeds, which are technically a fruit, will give you complete protein. They are
33% complete protein and are the perfect ratio of omega 3&6 plus countless other
nutrients. Soak them for a few hours, drain and rinse, then put them through your
masticating juicer with celery and greens for the perfect alkaline power drink. Or, blend
with water (and maybe some coconut oil) and strain through a muslin bag or sieve and
make your own fresh hemp-milk. 6 or 7 tbs per day is a good amount, but you can use more
if you feel you are getting good benefits from it. Hemp seeds are easy to sprout, so that is
something to try if you feel brave. Soak overnight, drain and rinse. Then leave the seeds in a
kitchen cupboard to sprout. Rinse once or twice per day and give the seeds a chance to
soak up some water for a few minutes when rinsing. I use an old Perspex dish but any
container will work fine.
If your body doesn’t do well without meat or protein, it is most likely because of a deficiency
in chlorophyll, oil, sodium, magnesium, iodine, zinc or some other important nutrient which
is affecting hormones and other reactions in your body. Meat masks deficiencies and
absorption problems and so when you go without it for a while you experience all those
deficiencies which had previously been suppressed. As I say, if going without protein feels
like a deprivation, then do what feels right for you and just gently work towards balancing
your body chemistry.
When you have a good body-pH and a healthy small intestine you will only need a very small
amount of protein per day. About 90% is recycled in a healthy alkaline environment and so
your protein requirement will actually be very low. But, most people are more acidic and so
nutrients get ‘spent’ instead of being recycled, so you need to make sure you have enough
protein in your diet for you.
You can easily meet your protein requirements just by eating greens and avocados, but you
can eat lentils and beans too for example (personally I don’t eat lentils, beans, soy or tofu –
but whatever works for you). Wheatgrass contains 4 x more protein than meat and it has
none of the acidity. Meat does have a high protein content but it’s not very bio-available.
Also the cooking process reduces the usable protein of anything by at least 50%. If you
crave protein, then you actually need to address your omega 3&6 deficiency as a lack of
good fats will trigger protein cravings. If you address your fat deficiency your meat cravings
will simply disappear, it works every time! Of course you can get ripped and fit on meat, and
you can be very healthy on a balanced diet which includes meat and have a long happy life,
but it is not essential (nor is it optimal). If you feel that lean chicken and turkey is really
working for you, then keep going with it, but work on cleaning up your overall diet (as
everyone should) and increase hydration with alkaline water and green drinks. Maybe you
can view this ‘alkaline diet’ as a cleanse that you do twice a year, meaning you go vegan for
up to 10-21 days in the spring and again in the autumn. Address nutrient deficiencies and
keep track of your urine/saliva pH to make sure you stay within healthy ranges. Or, you
could go raw-alkaline vegan get yourself all healed up...then carefully reintroduce meat I
only keep going on about meat so that those who are confused or would like to quit meat,
feel that they can do so with confidence.
Muscles built on plant protein won’t look as ‘bulky/puffy’ due to less fluid retention and
swelling/inflammation, but will be just as strong or stronger and also will be more energy
efficient and flexible. If you were to fast or reduce calories, the muscles built with plant
material won’t be broken down for fuel so quickly because the body always scavenges for
abnormal proteins to use up first – so if your muscle tissue is made of healthy, plant-derived
cells, even when fasting you won’t lose those hard-earned gains.
If you eat the wrong foods, according to this theory, then it causes an allergic reaction and
the blood turns clumpy. In theory it’s an interesting concept and there may be some
element of truth to it but in practice it doesn’t work as a stand-alone approach to eating.
For instance, I’m O-type and according to the theory I should eat meat but Instead I am
vegetarian/vegan there are many healthy O-type vegetarians. Some things from the book
do ring true such as the need for me to avoid grains, as my body doesn’t really tolerate
grains but there are plenty of people who, according to their blood type should be able to
eat grains, who can’t and this is more of a reflection of intestinal damage and the state of
modern crops such as wheat.
The author, Peter D'amo says avocados will make Type-O blood turn clumpy, but I test my
own blood using a microscope and avocados have never caused my blood to become
clumpy. Stu Mittelman the well-known marathon runner was using the O-type approach
when running from east to west coast of USA, he started ‘burning out’ so adopted the
alkaline ‘kale and avocado approach’ - he was tested by doctors to be healthier at the end of
the race than he was at the beginning and also was the only person to finish the race. He
talks about blood type in his book 'slow burn' and actually believes in it, but only up to a
point. As Dr Young says, there are only 2 blood types: healthy…. or unhealthy! We run best
on electrons, chlorophyll, salt, oil and water. It doesn’t matter what your blood type is,
meat, grains, dairy do not build the strongest blood and are not ideally suited to our
intestinal tract which hasn’t changed or evolved whatsoever. What we maybe have is a
cellular or genetic memory of a certain way of eating, but why not, if you have the choice,
begin the process of rewriting your cellular information so that it is more in keeping with
you natural, physiological, alkaline design?
Should we eat what our ancestors ate?
Not necessarily in my opinion. We all have the same fundamental requirements and our
need for chlorophyll, oil, water and salt (C.O.W.S) is universal. Also just because our
ancestors ate a certain way doesn’t mean it was healthy or optimal, they would have just
been eating what was available to them. In my view it is best to only copy people who are
getting the results we want, so for me that means copying the diet (with a few extra
modifications i.e. we need more omega fatty acids/oils to stay warm due to our strange lack
of fur and also our larger brains are made mostly of fat) of deer, gazelles, horses, bunnies
and gorillas who are strong, fit, lean and who don’t get sick.
We have no idea how healthy our ancient ancestors really were and it is unlikely they lived a
very long life. They certainly were strong and fit because they weren't eating junk food, they
had fresh, non-irradiated air and water, they were physically active (throughout the entire
day, not one hour at the gym), were free of modern pollution and maybe most importantly
were not eating cultivated grains, fruits and sugars (they lived on fat). It would be safe to
assume they were phenomenally strong especially by today’s standards but that still doesn’t
mean they were eating the best diet possible. We need to look at what the strongest
animals eat and the fact we have the same digestive tract as a gorilla.
Humans can eat most things and survive but we now have scientific methods of seeing the
diet most suited to our physiology. Live blood analysis demonstrates that chlorophyll is the
best food for building blood and therefore building a strong body.
I for one don’t judge people by their diet. Humans have had to work very hard to adapt to
life on this planet in very challenging climates and conditions. We are the only animals who
need clothes to stop us from dying from exposure and so we have had to do many
‘unnatural’ things just to make it this far. Well done humanity I say!
If you subscribe to the idea, that everything is basically made up of energy or vibrations (not
solid matter), then everything, our diet included has a certain vibration. Do you remember
the picture of the sprouted lentil? In my opinion a diet centred on these foods will be ideal
for thriving as they have a higher frequency than something that is dead and dense. Our
ancestors would have been more concerned with base level survival, so again, we get to
choose who we are, what we want, where we are headed and we can choose a diet which is
aligned with our values and how we want to feel.
Lloyd Pye investigates if we really evolved from cavemen! (This is a must-see if you have an
open mind and are interested in this sort of thing) http://youtu.be/e5qJYwfAju8
Just in my opinion it is probably not morally wrong or bad to eat animals depending on the
context. Animals eat each other every single day on an industrial scale because they need
to and also because this serves an important purpose as it helps to manage numbers and it
keeps the gene pool strong. Some humans also rely on eating animals for survival as they
don’t have many other food options. I love animals and prefer not to eat them not least
because there are better sources of nutrition. I’ve had experiences of feeding wild birds and
rabbits out of the palm of my hand because they felt in no danger and that is the level of
trust and friendship between humans and animals that one day could be considered typical.
So animals don’t have the right to not be eaten, because they eat each other, but we have
the right to choose not to eat them and we have the right to stop the horrific, vile abuse and
suffering that occurs in factory farms. There is no excuse for tolerating this and this should
be opposed by people in large numbers.
My advice is to quit animal products if you feel that they are not really serving you,
especially when you are lucky enough to live in an economy where you have better food
options available to you. At the very least keep intake low and be extremely picky about the
animal products you use. There are now too many people on this planet for everyone to
have a meat based diet and we are now forcing the hands of ‘food scientists’ who want the
demand to be so high that it outstrips supply, so they can have an excuse to grow meat in
laboratories!
There are the health and environmental benefits of avoiding meat and especially the fact
that billions of animals are dying and suffering to feed the attachment to a high protein diet
whereby factory farming is the only financially practical option to meet the current high
demand. Also pet ownership is encouraged so they can sell repackaged offal as pet food
and unimaginable numbers of cats and dogs are suffering from the pet industry.
No, absolutely not. I have been living on high-alkaline foods and liquids for well over 10
years and my digestion has only ever improved during that time. A major purpose of the
stomach, contrary to the current prevailing theory, is to alkalize food before it reaches the
small intestine. Stomach acid/HCL is the by-product of creating sodium bicarbonate and is
actually a waste product (yes, HCL is a waste product). An alkaline diet will only improve
digestion and overall digestive health and it will help to neutralize unhealthy acid
accumulations including stomach acid.
Yes, they will cancel out stomach acid/ HCL wastes and the remaining alkalinity will be used
to buffer other acids in the body. Ionized water will take the burden off your body’s
buffering system which is always working using energy and raw materials to keep the body
alkaline and saturated with electrons/energy.
Is it possible to be too alkaline/ can the alkaline diet make the blood too alkaline?
The aim of an alkaline diet is not to make the blood more alkaline, but rather to help the
body in its efforts of maintaining the ideal pH balance of 7.365. If you wear a coat on a cold
day, you do so to help your body more easily achieve a comfy temperature, not because you
are trying to overheat your body. And in the same way, alkaline foods don’t make the blood
more alkaline, they just help the body to more easily buffer metabolic and dietary acids.
It is practically impossible to become too alkaline on an alkaline diet. The body is always
producing lots of acid because all functions of the body are acidic. Even thinking/mental
activity uses lots of oxygen and energy and therefore creates acidic wastes.
Car engines use petrol to generate power and they create acidic exhaust gasses as a result -
it is just the same in the human body. An alkaline diet is maybe a bit like using cleaner fuel
and improving the exhaust/elimination system of a car – things just run better. But even on
a 100% alkaline diet you will still generate acid. Fats like avocados are a cleaner source of
energy than pasta for example and will produce at least 50% less acid – but you will always
have acid. Just as you can improve a standard car engine to reduce emissions, you would
always have exhaust gasses. If someone’s blood is too alkaline it is because they have a
systemic acidity problem and the body is attempting to compensate by dumping alkaline
minerals into the blood – the worst advice to give this person is to eat meat to ‘reduce the
alkalinity’.
Breathing, thinking, moving, digestion, and metabolism – every function of the body
generates acid. We have organs in the body responsible for alkalizing these acids with good
old baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) – stomach, pancreas, salivary, gall bladder etc. all
secrete bicarb. We are alkaline by design, but all functions are acidic and we need to live in
a way which encourages and maintains pH balance.
All routes of elimination should to be used and maximized to get the acids out and away:
Sweating is a fantastic way to get rid of acid – we have millions of pores and a huge surface
area – skin is the largest elimination organ. Urination (drink lots of good water), defecation
(you need to poop regular!), respiration (remember to breathe and push out old stale air
from the lungs)
Placebo works when people are convinced something is going to heal them. Many people
who get dramatic changes in health really didn’t think it was going to work.
I think what happens is people make some changes, they then notice a shift in how they are
feeling, this brings confidence and faith that they are on the right path and then there is a
snowball effect whereby doubts and fears begin to fade away and then healing really
accelerates and the process becomes fun.
I also believe that a severe medical diagnosis causes an unfavourable placebo effect. When
someone then goes and learns some empowering information about their health, this
negative-placebo burden is removed from them.
Eating foods in the wrong combination will create extra acid. For example, fruit, when
eaten alone, normally digests in about 30 minutes. But, if the stomach is full of cooked
proteins/starches then the fruit is forced to sit on top and wait, instead of being absorbed.
So it begins fermenting and this fermentation causes lots of acidity. Eating carbohydrates
and meat in the same meal will cause a similar effect. Carbohydrate takes a few hours to
digest whereas meat takes considerably longer and much of it isn’t digested at all. Eating
meat and carbs together will create a situation where they slow each other down and
fermentation occurs. In my opinion it’s not about enzymes cancelling each other out as we
are told, it’s about dense food mixed with denser food causing stagnation. If you want to
eat meat, then it is best to eat it alone with just vegetables/salad or vegetable soup and not
with bread pasta or rice. Dairy doesn’t combine well with anything.
Chimpanzees in the wild who eat small amounts of meat (mostly for social reasons) chew
the meat and swallow the juices, but spit out the fleshy part as they know it is of no use to
them. Really meat should be eaten with just non-starchy vegetables (ideally blended) but at
the same time you need to do what you feel works best for you. Ideally you should eat
dairy alone and on an empty stomach and it is recommended that you eat fruit on an empty
stomach, not that I am recommending either.
The body does indeed detoxify itself (liver, kidneys etc.), but it does not have an infinite
ability to do this. An extreme example is how an alcoholic gets liver problems. Most people
aren’t alcoholics, but there is a sliding scale of toxicity and the respective stress which that
has on the filter organs. The body can create extra warmth on demand and it can cool itself
down too, but the body’s ability to respond to temperature extremes has limitations. In the
same way, the body cannot just process all the alcohol, drugs, caffeine, junk/processed
food, pollution, heavy metals and keep smiling. The alkaline buffering systems (plus
vitamins, minerals, antioxidants) will eventually get depleted – it makes no sense to think
the supplies of alkaline buffers (sodium, magnesium, calcium, potassium) are inexhaustible
like some magic bank account and that we can draw out forever, without paying in more
than is going out.
But in general it’s difficult to answer the question of longevity because the modern ‘alkaline
lifestyle’ was only created in this format in the past 20-30 years. There is much to suggest
that this way of eating will extend life or at the very least will improve quality of life. I
trained with Dr Young and the last I heard, his bone density was still increasing well into his
50's and that's a pretty good sign that this approach works as bone density normally peaks
at age 30. Also, a doctor who studied the body of someone who died naturally of old-age
but who had been eating Dr Young’s alkaline diet for a long time said to Dr Young: “this is
the healthiest dead-person I have even seen”.
This diet is adapted for the modern world and was created to meet the needs of people
today. It takes into account the corruption of specific foods in modern food production and
is designed to compensate for the acidic, proton saturated and electron deficient (air,
water, food) world in which we now live. In the old day’s meat was not poisoned, dairy was
raw and livestock were pasture fed (I know the people with selective hearing will take that
as an endorsement for these foods!). Genetics had not yet been damaged by antibiotics and
atmospheric radiation so these old folks who smoke and drink tend to have very strong
constitution and can compensate for an energy poor, acidic diet.
People born after WW2, were more likely to have been formula fed and subjected to
radiation (electrical plus fallout), pesticides, vaccines, antibiotics and so are generally
weaker. Not to mention that much of the strong genetics were wiped out in the two world
wars. People are living longer now largely due to improved availability of fresh food and
improved sewerage and water plus easier living conditions, but overall health is lower and
people are dependent on pharmaceuticals and medical intervention. If people today went
back 100 years without modern sanitation and obsessive bleaching, they would not last 5
minutes as our resistance has been shot and we certainly couldn’t keep up with the hard
labour. So, the alkaline lifestyle (eating foods which are most highly compatible, which
require little to no conversion and in their purest concentrated form) helps to compensate
for all the challenges we are up against and also helps undo genetic damage. A few
generations of healthy living would help to fully restore the genetic strength and it would be
possible to have the best of both worlds (easier living conditions, plus strong genetics)
Also to answer the question another way, maybe we need to re-evaluate our definition of
health? It is one thing to survive, and not get cancer but it is quite another thing to thrive
and be full of energy. Serious longevity (over 120 yrs.) is maybe not likely at the moment
but this approach is the best way to stay on an upward trend and even keel.
Is this our natural diet?
I have no idea if there is such a thing as a natural diet for humans but all animals have a plant
centred diet. Carnivores feast on grass filled intestines...Other animals just eat the grass. Either
way there is no reason to not have a diet centred on chlorophyll. To me the natural diet is one
which creates the best looking blood cells and which makes people feel energized. So that
means pH balance and lots of electrons. If that includes the use of a water ionizer with which to
recreate the water that would come from a mountain stream or using a blender/juicer, then
that’s acceptable to me
You can be very happy and healthy on other diets, even if that involves eating some animal
products. But the info in this book is the only way that I know of to build 'perfect' blood as seen
in all the pictures shown throughout this book. Getting your blood really clean and strong may
be what is required by your body so that it can affect the healing of a specific symptom in the
body.
This diet, at its highest level (the 100% alkaline option) is for people who are looking for
something different and/or for people who have tried and failed to get results they desire with
another approach. Knowledge is power. The theories and information are for anyone who
would like to understand the true physiology of the human body, even if you choose not to
follow the dietary advice. At least if you understand all sides to a discussion, you can make an
informed choice.
Are liver stones (as per the liver flush I talk about in the how-to guide) real?
Some have suggested think that the liver flush doesn’t achieve anything and that the stones
which are flushed from the body are ‘soap stones’. The soap-stone theory says that olive oil
combines with Epsom salts in the body and this mixture is heated by our body-temperature
causing it to turn into soap and that this is what is released during a liver flush. But, the
temperature required for this to happen is simply not possible inside the human body, plus
the Epsom salts are taken 2 hours before the oil and are already long gone.
You can flush until no more stones come out which invalidates this theory and after doing
about 20 flushes, no more stones will come out, regardless of ingesting olive oil and Epsom
salts.
Fruit is better than chocolate or junk food because fruit is at least clean and natural (unless
its GMO) – but it does contain lots of acidic sugar (which the fruitarian will say is a good
thing!) and has a lot of potential to ferment in an unhealthy/congested GI tract. Fruit has
been hybridized to have far more sugar than is natural and it is also often picked before
ripeness. If you love fruit, then keep eating it while you work towards transitioning to an
alkaline diet. I was eating lots of fruit as part of my raw-food diet, and was hooked on all
the sugar, but after a couple days going 100% alkaline…I noticed that I didn’t even miss or
crave fruit – once your body starts getting large amounts of chlorophyll, nutrients and
electrons you will not want a sugar fix (sugar cravings are really a craving for electrical
energy and conductivity). But, while transitioning and finding what works for you, maybe
try a green smoothie which combines leafy greens and fruit. You will need a powerful
blender for this to work as you need to emulsify the greens properly, but the greens will
slow down the release of sugars whilst adding chlorophyll and alkalinity.
If you are not ready to train your body to burn fats for fuel or just can’t see this working for
you right now, then you could try a hybrid program combining the principles discussed in
this document with a fruit based diet.
This would involve eating properly ripened fruit blended with lots of leafy greens, and
drinking plenty of water – also you will need to keep your fat intake low as sugar and fat
together just doesn’t cause a good reaction in the body. Exercise is essential to sweat out
the extra acidity from sugar. You could research people like Victoria Boutenko for ideas and
information. Fats are my preferred source of fuel, but you need to know what you are
doing and a good fruit based diet with plenty of greens will be better than a bad high-fat
diet. Also, if you need a fuel source for sports or activities requiring explosive bursts of
energy, then you may want to use a more fruit-based diet. For the record, now that I am
fully in tune with my body’s energy needs, I can recognise that my body has a dislike for the
effects of fruit sugars.
Fat is an excellent, alkalizing source of energy. Humans used to eat high-fat, low carb diets
before modern agriculture – it is the combination of fat and carbohydrate which causes so
many health problems.
Sugar will mostly just give the illusion of energy. When you eat sugar, the body will release
electrons, minerals and insulin into the blood to buffer, neutralize and respond to the sugar
– so it is not only the sugar which is making you feel good – it is also the body’s response to
that sugar which gives you a nice feeling. So, in the long run, sugar will contribute to
draining the body of electrical energy. The same applies to acidic ‘energy drinks’, meat and
also other foods which prompt an alkalizing response from the body. It’s a bit like using a
credit card; when you spend using a credit card you might have the experience of feeling
wealthy as you have ‘spending power’ and you get a nice feeling (not that I’ve ever had a
credit card thankfully!), but it is only an illusion of wealth. It’s temporary, unsustainable and
you will pay interest in future. In a similar way, an undernourished mother-to-be will often
feel healthy and glowing when pregnant, but that is because she has huge amounts of
nutrients being ‘borrowed’ from her bones and vital organs and put by the body into the
blood-stream to be given to the baby (nature always prioritizes the baby over the mother,
regardless of the cost). If diet is poor and nutrients are not repaid, once the baby is born
there will often be a crash or come-down and the mother will, unfortunately feel exhausted,
drained and even severely depressed/anxious. Similarly, using sugar means you are
freewheeling on nutrient and energy reserves.
Fruit does contain nutrients and electrons which will help the body cope with/handle the
sugar. Drinking lots of water will compensate for acidity and the net loss of electrical energy
and alkalinity – so if you are going to consume a high sugar diet, you should go for well
ripened organic fruits and drink electron rich water. The body runs on electrons/electrical
energy, fats are the best source as you get the electrons but without all the acid and sugar
from carbs. Yes, the body can run on carbs, but the body runs more smoothly when you
shift to fat-burning metabolism..
Uncontrollable sugar cravings which are never satisfied despite eating endless amounts of
sugar, are caused by yeast overgrowth and also a lack of nutrients/electrical energy. Yeast
will eat your nutrients from your bloodstream and will disrupt energy production, causing
you to feel shaky and tired and so you grab more sugar and coffee to keep you going. By
switching to healthy fats, juices, smoothies, salads and other high-electron low-acid foods
and eliminating sugars you starve the yeast of its ‘preferred poison’ and you stabilize your
energy levels with a clean source of electrons and nutrition.
Also, another reason for cravings: without the proper nutrients the body can’t generate
energy so you crave sugar to ‘hotwire’ your system but it never provides sustainable energy.
If you eat empty/processed foods, your body will never be satisfied and will tell you to keep
eating and eating continuously in the vain hope you will eventually consume something
containing the minerals, vitamins and electrons which it requires. Food cravings will cease
when you break the cycle and start consuming nutrient dense foods in sufficient
quantities.
This is a red-herring as the real reason for choosing organic produce is normally about
avoiding pesticide-laden food. Besides that, organic food is typically more nutrient dense.
All the bad press about drinking lots of water relates to athletes drinking copious amounts
of the wrong-kind of water (full of protons, which pull electrons from your body) which
disturbs their electrolyte balance and robs minerals. Don't drink huge amounts of tap or
bottled water without first treating it to raise electron content. So, water should be filtered
and ideally ionized. Also make sure you do not limit sodium in your diet.
I have mixed-feelings about fasting as I feel there is too much risk of the body wasting and
having to steal nutrients from the bone and organs to maintain volume of blood cells. I
think short fasts are safe for most people and fasting one day per week on green juices or
smoothies is an excellent habit to get into. But longer fasts are riskier and I would suggest
that it’s very important to get healthy and properly nourished before trying a long fast. The
most important priority initially is to get the body strong and cleansed, so green-juice
fasting could be a good idea (as long as you provide good oils too). Once you are strong and
healthy then you can go into water fasting, safe in the knowledge your body is able to
support a spiritual practice such as this. Make sure you know what you are doing and
ideally fasts should be properly supervised. Do not abuse fasting or use it as a way to avoid
facing relationship issues with food. I have done extended fasts and even gone over 4 days
with zero food or water… there are lots of potential benefits but you need to do basic
groundwork first, then the whole experience will be more enjoyable and you’ll reap benefits
without undermining your health through starvation.
Fasting when ill is a great idea. Eating causes nerve energy to be redirected to the task of
digestion meaning less energy available for healing. If ever I feel the beginnings of a cold (it
happens very occasionally), I fast on juices and clear it out of my system before it can get
established. There was a story recently of a woman recovering from Ebola, the news report said
“she is recovering, sitting up and talking to people and eating some food” when I heard the bit
about eating food I thought to myself she would quite probably be relapsing pretty soon. The
next day they said her condition had deteriorated and they were now trying experimental
medication on her. Luckily she didn’t die but food was the worst thing to have given her.
Is meditation alkalizing?
Yes. The brain is always trying to solve problems and is chattering away throughout the day.
Mental activity uses up energy and all energy production generates acid, so learning to still
your mind is a great idea. When you sit and focus on your breath and consciously decide to
not engage in thought for even a short period of time, all the energy and oxygen that would
have been consumed focussing on (often pointless) thoughts or concerns, is redirected back
into the body. Eventually, you will find that you are calmer and more focussed and this will
translate to better health. There are many other benefits but the physical benefits alone
make it worth the effort of just stilling your mind even for a few minutes per day.
I have done a few 10-day silent retreats and it’s a bit like restoring a computer back to
factory settings. It gets rid of all the clutter so your mind can solve problems more quickly
and work with more clarity.
Subliminal message CD’s and affirmations can also be very helpful for reprogramming the
subconscious and clearing out all the garbage which we pick up from education, society,
family, TV etc.
Do we need supplements?
Even conventional organic food these days is not what it used to be. Due to intensive
farming methods the topsoil has been depleted making it harder to get all the minerals
(especially iodine!) you need from food alone. Pollution and stress can deplete the body of
minerals and other nutrients too. I advocate the careful use of supplements although I
would say at least 90% of what is on the market is a waste of money due to the ingredients
and manufacturing processes involved. The only supplements I use are mostly food-based
or otherwise found in nature and I really get lots of benefit from using them, especially for
exercise/fitness. As an example wheatgrass is the only vegetable which can absorb every
single mineral and trace mineral from the soil.
A healthy diet alone may be fine for maintaining health, but a healthy diet alone is not
always enough for restoring and optimizing health. If someone has been doing
drugs/stress/junk food and/or have a health challenge, then supplements can be very
helpful for addressing the deficiencies and toxicity accumulated over long periods of time.
The general rule of thumb is to eat lots of fresh whole food. It is advisable to change one
thing at a time, however, if you have a significant health challenge, or if you feel you want
to boost your energy levels quickly, and you feel confident, then it may be wise to go 100%
alkaline for a few weeks/months or longer. That means eliminating all acidic foods and even
temporarily eliminate the low-acid grains/sugars and starchy vegetables which can still add
fuel to an existing yeast infestation. It also means liquids or smoothies only so that the small
intestine, the root system of the body, may be given time to heal itself in peace.
Once balance has been restored and for healthy people in general, Dr Young’s
recommendation is to aim for the 80/20 ratio. This means eating 80% high alkaline food and
20% mildly acid forming food. In the early stages of the process there may be some initial
detox symptoms as stored acids are being expelled, but this should be viewed as a positive
thing. The more you move the toxins out by drinking alkaline fluids, the better you will feel.
All avenues for eliminating acids need to be utilized, and this is achieved by increased
hydration and improved digestion to move acids out via the bowels and urine. Sweating is
another important component, as this allows acids to exit via the skin which is the largest
elimination organ.
Does making vegetable juice mean the pulp is wasted?
Insoluble fibre really just gets in the way of the digestion and absorption of nutrients. If you
eat lots of animal protein, then fibre/pulp will be helpful for 'sweeping' the intestines clean
and will stop too much fermentation and stagnation occurring. Otherwise, the ideal
scenario is to juice vegetables when cleansing/building a better, healthier body because
removing the pulp means there is nothing to slow down absorption of nutrients – plus you
can consume far, far more produce in the form of juice than if you ate the produce whole
(again, best to dilute juice with alkaline water). Avocados contain some soluble fibre which
can be absorbed but in general, vegetables contain fibre which has no nutritive value.
Eating fibre won’t deep clean the colon, the best way to do this is to do a proper colon
cleanse which will allow the removal of debris and putrefaction.
You can blend avocado into the juice to create a filling smoothie which satisfies the need for
something more than juice alone, but which still digests quickly and easily. Otherwise, if not
making juices, then just have regular green smoothies as the food is at least liquefied which
is important as only liquefied food can be digested. If you are not going to blend food, then
you must liquefy food thoroughly by chewing, as your stomach has no teeth!
Emotional stress produces hydrochloric acid in the stomach which is 3 x stronger than any
dietary acids and this is one reason why stress feels so bad. That said, when you start to eat
more alkaline foods, your capacity to deal with emotional stress will improve.
I have heard of animals being extremely healthy on a vegetarian diet, but they need lots of
greens and good fats. If you keep an animal, it is probably best to include quality organ
meats and also include alkaline vegetables in their diet. Dr Young who compiled all this
alkaline information, works with pets as well as humans, and creates special diets for lions,
panthers and other big animals. In the wild, when killing prey, these carnivores eat the
intestines first as the intestines are full of the alkaline grasses which they require for health.
Celebrities keep these animals who often get sick due to acidity, so Dr Young feeds them
greens to reverse cancer, diabetes etc. So it is good to feed your pet at least some broccoli
and green vegetables. Animals in the wild generally don’t have cancer, due to their diet and
constant contact with bare earth. Livestock get cancer all the time.
Carnivores have a shorter, smoother intestinal tract designed for processing meat quickly,
before it goes bad, as it does in the long meandering human intestinal tract, but, animals
can also eat vegetables too.
Are doctors aware of this information?
Some are aware, and some are not. I have actually had people referred to me by doctors
and in one of these cases the NHS doctor had said there was nothing he could offer the lady
except painkillers and so he recommended dietary changes in the direction of pH balancing.
He even gave her a copy of Dr Young’s book to borrow. Unfortunately, the dominant belief
is that if we get sick it is due to faulty genetics or some invading organism and the
pharmaceutical companies seem unwilling to fund the research which would inevitably stop
these part-truths being perpetuated. The proof of the pudding is in the eating and the
simple fact is that when people alkalize themselves properly, they report significant (often
‘miraculous’) benefits. There will always be people who will say this won’t work or that this
doesn’t work, but before allowing anyone to influence your personal health choices, be
certain to ask these people if they have tried this themselves (although good intentioned,
they are often just preaching their textbook theories as gospel). And also be wary of claims
that you find on the internet by anonymous people who say this won’t work, as you will just
be pulled around in different directions until you are more confused than ever. You need to
decide what makes sense to you and maybe experiment a little, see how you feel and if you
feel good then go a bit deeper into this lifestyle.
Do Viruses exist?
Yes, viruses exist but they are not living, invasive organisms as we are led to believe. This
article explains what a virus really is:
http://articlesofhealth.blogspot.co.uk/2007/12/understanding-virus-as-liquid-acid.html
For me the jury is out on soy products. Personally I think some forms of soy are okay in
moderation and soy milk is perhaps better than dairy. One argument against soy says the
phytoestrogens in soy may feed some cancers, but evidence shows people who consume
soy have lower risks of cancer. Also people say that soy may have an estrogenic (feminizing)
effect on men.
My belief is that phytoestrogens from soy are actually protective because when they latch
onto and occupy the oestrogen receptors, they block the stronger types of oestrogen
(xenooestrogens from plastics etc.), preventing access to receptors thus stopping them from
causing health problems (and because the phytoestrogens are weak, they don’t
themselves cause problems). Sprouted soy-seed is brilliant for everyone to use though and
can be recommended without reservation.
Always avoid GMO soy as this will make you fat and badly mess up your hormones. Also,
with many soy products they use a chemical solvent called hexane to extract the soy. This is
especially true with soy and whey protein powders and other similar products which should
be avoided. Tofu can contain a lot of ammonia too and so just avoid it altogether if you can.
pH of Lemons:
Lemons do contain acids, but they also contain lots of alkalinity. On balance you will have a
net-gain of alkalinity and so lemons are considered alkaline. Make sure they are ripe, and
be careful of your teeth.
If one's colon is clogged full of undigested proteins, then drinking vinegar will burn away this
impacted congestion so that the colon can 'breathe' a little better and you get a perceived
benefit. People use cider vinegar for arthritis (arthritis is largely caused by congestion in the
colon which leads to acid deposits elsewhere) and they do report getting at least a short-
term benefit. But, if you continue to use it without addressing the root of the problem, you
just end up burning healthy tissue. Vinegar is acidic, it is proton saturated and pulls energy
(electrons) from the body and is a product of fermentation so should ideally be avoided.
Magnesium peroxide/oxide is a perfect way to cleanse to colon of debris and you get the
same benefit as vinegar plus loads of other benefits (alkalinity, electrons, and oxygen) and
without the damage caused by the vinegar. They say vinegar is high in potassium but
avocados are a great source of potassium and they are alkaline forming and electron rich.
Basically there are much better ways to cleanse the colon such as Aloe-Vera or just doing a
good colon cleanse using clay and psyllium. Vinegar will dissolve undigested animal protein
in the gut…but remember that your body is made of ‘animal protein’ and you don’t want to
be dissolved!
The traditional method of pH testing is flawed. They take the food, incinerate it and then
test the ash for mineral content. Fruit may contain alkaline minerals as revealed by the ash
method, but it is also very high in sugar. Sugar acidifies the body, not least because it is like
rocket fuel for yeast/candida, but with the ash method, all the sugar is burned and so this
not taken into account.
Is ‘Bragg’s amino acids’ a good soy sauce substitute?
It is slightly acidic. It may be much less acidic then soy sauce and vinegar but it is not
alkalizing. This can be used as a substitute for soy sauce but you still need to use it in
moderation. Now that you know salt is good for you, you can use salt for flavour; try a
dressing made with salt, lemon, cold pressed oil.
Nutritional yeast’
It is best to avoid all forms of yeast including marmite and especially nutritional yeast. A
b12 supplement might be a good idea too just to get yourself topped up.
Acidophilus is really not good to use and it harms the gut in the long run, bifido strains are
not so bad to use. A channel-4 documentary tested methods for improving gut flora (they
monitored stool samples) and found leafy green veg is better than live yoghurt and far
better than Probiotics as it creates fertile soil for flora to achieve homeostasis. We have
more brain cells in our gut than we do in our head and there is a direct nerve pathway
between gut and our brain. So please don’t burn this delicate tissue with acidic acidophilus
and enzymes. If the gut (the ‘primary brain’) is damaged through acidity and if there is
yeast overgrowth, it’s a lot like having something wrong with your actual brain. If you
heal the gut your ‘actual brain’ will become calm and happy. The small intestine has been
referred to as the primary brain whereas the one in the skull is a secondary brain! If the
intestines are full of animal protein (death) it will affect a person’s outlook. This is why
people get such magical changes in their mental state by cleansing the colon. “don’t turn
your guts into a graveyard for dead animals”
Is sodium bicarbonate the same as bicarbonate of soda that you use for baking etc.?
I have heard that baking soda is tainted with aluminium in the manufacturing process - or
maybe there are anti-caking ingredients added. It is best to go for pharmaceutical grade (BP
Grade) sodium bicarbonate because purity is the issue but essentially the two are the same
in function. Boots the chemists sell it.
Nuts and seeds contain chemicals which are designed to keep them safe and undigested
when eaten whole by animals and also to keep them in a dormant state until the rainy
season. Eating raw nuts and seeds will mean your body must waste lots of digestive energy
trying to defeat all the chemicals and anti-nutrients which block digestion. Soaking them in
water mimics the effect of being planted in moist soil and so they release all their chemicals
into the soak-water because they think it’s time to sprout. So, soak nuts/seeds overnight (1
part nuts or seeds to 3 parts water), throw away soak water (as that’s where these
chemicals/substances will have been released), top up with fresh water and these will keep
in the fridge for 3 days. It is good practice to change the water every 24hrs. Soak-water is
good for houseplants btw.
It’s a bit of a minefield! The main problems here are hulling or extraction process and
storage methods. In the UK I tend to avoid sunflower and pumpkin seeds unless they look
really fresh. Hazel, Brazil, macadamia and pine nuts also tend to be oxidized unless you shell
them yourself. Hazel and brazil nuts often are missing big patches of their protective brown
skin and have oxidized/turned rancid (the oil in nuts and seeds are vulnerable to oxidization
from heat, air and light). When macadamia and pine nuts are shelled they become totally
exposed to the air (they don’t have a protective brown skin like almonds, brazils etc.) and
are fully oxidized (they should be white but have a distinct yellow tinge instead). Avoid all
peanuts and cashews as they are fully contaminated with very poisonous aspergillus fungus.
Walnuts and pecans are generally no good unless you shell them yourself. Also avoid hulled
seeds i.e. hulled hemp and sesame.
I like hemp, flax, chia, and sesame as the really small seeds are free from damage. Almonds
are fine as long as you throw away chipped and moldy looking ones and I always look
forward to walnut season. You don’t have to be too obsessive, this is just a guideline. Nut
milks are best as you get all the nutrients without the fibre which is harder to digest.
Fat is created to park acids and sweep them under the rug to get them away from vital
organs. This is why regular dieting feels so unpleasant. 1) You are not eating foods you are
used to and which you think you enjoy eating 2) as you lose the weight and the fat is burned
up as an energy source, toxins bound up in those fat stores are released into the blood to be
eliminated, making the blood dirtier. This makes you feel bad, making you feel like death,
hence the letters ‘die’ in dieting I suppose. You need nutritious foods which provide
nutrients required for detoxification and also to hydrate with lots of alkaline fluids and keep
acids moving out. Keep flushing all day long. Each time you crave junk food, that’s because
there is old junk in in your blood being detoxed, and eating junk food would instantly stop
the uncomfortable detox process so your brain asks for chocolate or a burger. So drink a
litre or pint of alkaline fluid to flush the toxins out and the physical craving will go away –
instead of putting the brakes on the detox by eating something heavy.
The same applies even if you are not overweight. You will still have acids to eliminate but
they will be in the joints and connective tissue. You still need to wash them out of the blood
stream then pee them out. As long as you continually flush yourself out throughout the
day, you will avoid the nasty detox symptoms and can even avoid caffeine withdrawal
headaches altogether. But if you start the cleansing process and suddenly forget to drink
water, the blood gets thicker with toxins and you will feel bad, so just keep drinking.
“I have ‘googled’ and found Dr Young listed on Quackwatch as a “bad scientist and fake
doctor teaching bad science is this true”? No, it’s not true. He just teaches something that
the medical community haven’t understood yet as so he has attracted criticism. Also, he is
getting result without the use of drugs or surgery and so I think he is ruffling a few feathers.
To make it onto Quackwatch is a compliment because it means you are challenging the
status quo and I hope to feature on their site myself one day!
Water ionizers: Firstly, to consider, there are ‘natural ionizers’ which mimic the effect of
water running over rocks to generate an electrical charge (as happens in rivers and streams)
and they do not require any mains electricity. These are available to buy for around the
$600/£350 mark. Two good options are the Ultrastream and the pH Miracle Watermark.
Filter cartridges last about 3000 litres or 12 months, whichever comes first. Both can either
be installed under the counter or they will sit on the counter and be connected to any
regular mixer tap.
Other devices such as the Chanson Miracle Max or Jupiter Athena (the Athena being my
personal favourite) are costlier but you can achieve a much higher negative ORP (oxidization
reduction potential) with these. These devices do use electricity and in my opinion they are
worth the extra investment if you have the option to do so as they also give you tighter
control of the ph. They also micro cluster the water meaning it is better absorbed and most
people notice they feel much more energized and healthy when they drink this water. You
can install a pre-filter or a Nano-filtration system to get the water really clean, Jupiter
Ionizers have excellent pre-filtration built in. Most electric ionizers require some
maintenance and you need to flush them through with a citric acid solution every few
months to remove calcium build-up, but the filters last a very long time so on balance they
require less maintenance than natural ionizers. These start at around $2000/£1400 mark.
Jupiter ionizers self-clean, so you don’t need to do any flushing with citric acid.
Finally, I would say a good pH/ORP meter is a worthwhile investment as you can check
everything you are drinking and use it to make sure your ionizer is working correctly. Hanna
Instruments for example make good combination pH/ORP meters.
Rebounder: The Bellicon is one of the best rebounder on the market at the time of writing
as it uses bungee cords instead of springs and so the bounce is much softer (and also is
silent as opposed to springs which can be very loud): http://www.bellicon.com/en/home/
Otherwise Needak is a good brand.
Vitamix or Blendtec Blender: You will need one of these if you want to make green
smoothies where the leafy green vegetables are fully broken down and emulsified. Tip: If
using a Vitamix blender, leave the plunger in place when blending as it will prevent a vortex
forming and so will reduce air and oxidation of your smoothie.
A stick-blender or any other blender will work very well too for softer things and would be
okay for blending tender leaves but not kale for example. I often simply juice my veg then
blend in an avocado using a hand/stick blender as I think this creates less friction than a
Vitamix.
Green Power Juicer. My preferred juicer is the green power juicer. It crushes the
vegetables slowly instead of spinning at high speed meaning that more of the nutrition is
preserved. The special jug container will keep juice fresh in the fridge all day, so you can
have fresh juice in the morning but save a jug full for when you get back from work. You
could also buy a spare container for storing double the amount:
http://www.ukjuicers.com/green-power-kempo-gpt-e1305-exclusive-pro-juicer-white
Qlink pendant: This is a pendant which, believe it or not will mitigate the negative effects of
radiation from phones, WIFI, cell phone masts etc. these are also used by athletes to get
measurable increase in performance and there is lots of research and evidence proving
these pendants work. Dr Young has used live blood analysis to demonstrate the
before/after effects of wearing a qlink: http://www.qlinkproducts.com/Scripts/default.asp
Earthcalm pendant: This is another pendant designed to protect from EMF and microwave
radiation. You could research both pendants and see which you like the sound of. I feel a
significant improvement by wearing mine:
http://www.earthcalm.com/?gclid=COak8t712cACFQrjwgodhGcAdg
Low radiation cordless phones: These are cordless phones which do not produce high levels
of radiation. Most digital phones send a powerful signal from the base station even when
the phones are not in use.
http://www.gigaset.com/en_UK/information/cordlessphones.html
FIR sauna: Far Infra-Red saunas make you sweat more than a regular sauna and will also
draw toxins out from deeper inside the body. They also don’t heat the air like a steam sauna
and so you don’t overheat or feel uncomfortable. Be sure to drink alkaline fluids before,
during and after the sauna.
Shower filter: You inhale and absorb lots of chlorine while showering in mains water
because the water is hot so your pores are open. Also the chlorine evaporates into the air
which you then breathe in, giving it direct access into the blood. Actually showering in
chlorinated water is worse than drinking it because at least when you drink water the body
will be able to filter some of the toxins. If you run a bath, run it hot and leave it for 5
minutes to cool down – this will give the chlorine time to evaporate. Obviously you can’t do
this with a shower and that’s why a filter is a good idea in the long run. Chlorine isn’t some
lethal poison in this example, but in absence of a shower filter you can spend less time in
the shower and turn the heat down a bit. Iodine clears chlorine from the body too.
Inversion Table: Basically you hang upside down by your ankles, using your body weight to
decompress your spine. This cured my lower back pain and bad posture caused by
slouching and also has many other benefits including increased blood flow to the brain:
http://www.naturalliving.co.uk/acatalog/Sissel_Inversion_Table-

Clothing/Natural fibres: Natural fibres like wool and cotton allow the skin to breathe
properly so that acidic gasses can be released instead of being held in the body. Synthetic
fibres also create static which blocks negative ions in the air, stopping you from receiving
them. This is an excellent brand of merino clothing and the thermal base layers are
excellent http://uk.icebreaker.com/
Electrical pollution – please avoid spending hours and hours on your computer and avoid
using cell phones where possible (keep your phone on flight-mode where possible). If you
do spend a long time on a computer, it is good practice to get up every hour and move
around, ideally jump on a rebounder and do 50-100 high-knees (running/sprinting with
knees higher than normal) to get the blood pumping even for a short time. A product called
Qlink can help strengthen your defences to EMF radiation. This is a good presentation
about the strange health effects of cell phones http://youtu.be/6D9lsoSX5zgg
Sleep - This is an app for your phone or computer which eliminates blue-light from your
screen. After sunset the screen turns a slightly warmer colour so that your melatonin
production isn’t affected and you get a better night’s sleep (also you should ideally sleep in
pitch black as I’m sure you already know): https://justgetflux.com/
TV – It really does rot the brain! Out of 400 flicker-rates, ‘they’ chose the one which puts
your brain into the most hypnotic/suggestive state. This means the constant stream of
fearbased messages (news, dramas etc.) flood your subconscious unchallenged. When you
research tell-lie-vision, you could be forgiven for thinking it is aimed at keeping the
population disempowered and easily manipulated http://youtu.be/hb-lW9yBrwU
Microwave ovens – throw or give yours away if you haven’t already.
Low energy light bulbs – these bulbs produce high levels of EMFs and cause ‘dirty
electricity’ to spread into the rest of the wiring in the house. The flicker rate of these bulbs
is harmful and the bulbs also contain dangerous amounts of mercury and are arguably
worse for the planet and human health than old style light bulbs. Halogen or LED bulbs are
much better.
Vaccines – if you are in any doubt about vaccines, do some internet searches to see the
ingredients lists (mercury, aluminium, anti-freeze etc.). I will include my thoughts on
vaccines at the end of the book.
Amalgam dental material – have amalgams properly removed if possible and work to
detoxify the mercury from your body. MS cases went from 8,000 cases to 120,000 in the
same year the first copper/amalgam first placed.
Personal care products and household cleaning products – many contain aluminium and
other harmful ingredients.
Non-stick cookware – try to use stainless steel, ceramic or ideally Saladmaster products.
Using the Saladmaster will mean you can have food which is cooked but still keeps its
electrons
Earthing: This video talks about the absolute importance of getting bare feet on the
earth/sand (even just once a week). We need to absorb electrons through our skin for so
many reasons but especially for keeping the blood flowing properly. Devices are available
which allow you to sleep grounded: http://youtu.be/lY3w8kDn2Eo
Sunlight is also essential and ‘sun gazing’ is an excellent way to energize yourself (it’s one of
my favourite activities)! It involves staring at the sun during times of very low UV:
http://youtu.be/D_ERDxxzvQE
Sundroid is an app which will give you accurate sunrise and sunset times so you know
exactly when it is safe to look at the sun.
We need to absorb electrons from the sun, so we should expose your skin to sunlight.
Wearing sunglasses prevents your body from assessing how much melanin is needed to
protect from the current levels of UV present – so avoiding use of sunglasses will increase
UV protection making you less likely to get burned.
Good Fats:
DHA for your brain: We need DHA for our brain to work and we are told to take ‘high
DHA’ fish oil capsules. I suggest this is bad advice and that you should not use fish oil as
much of the delicate DHA will just oxidize in the blood before it even reaches the brain.
The body wants and prefers more stable ALA oils from plant sources which it will transport
to the brain and will convert it to DHA on site to prevent the oxidation that would otherwise
occur in the blood stream: http://brianpeskin.com/BP.com/publications/CADUCEUS-
Peskin2-2014.pdf
People say the body doesn’t easily convert ALA from flax, hemp or chia into DHA but they
can’t prove this as it would require access to the brain for monitoring and most people
don’t want their skull to be drilled! It is just propaganda from the fish-oil industry who want
to sell you overpriced (often rancid) fish offal. The fish are able to make DHA from their
plant-based diet and so can all the other animals….so what makes humans any different?
Well, conversion of ALA into DHA can be lower in some people depending on age and also
what they eat but it won’t be a problem if you improve your diet. It is high sugar junk-foods
and margarines which block conversion of plant fats to DHA. Most of the ‘fish-oil-industry
sponsored studies involved people taking flax oil mixed in margarine and of course, due to
presence of margarine, the conversion to DHA was low. But it was the margarine (and the
rest of their diet) which was to blame. So an alkaline diet will ensure optimum conversion:
https://youtu.be/dhJk417N5y8
We need a more nuanced approach and to get away from this blanket attitude that humans
can’t create DHA. If you want to take a fish oil (or vegan DHA supplement) just in case as
insurance, due to consuming a less than ideal diet, then choose a good one with plenty of
extra antioxidants to prevent it oxidizing in the blood. If you are healthy and managing to
eat well, then you probably just need a good quality plant oil supplement. You could even
alternate, or take both…. it’s up to you. The process of rebuilding the blood stream requires
plenty of good oils and so either way, you should aim to get a good amount each day.
This series of videos talks about the roles of omega 3 and 6 and also explains that there are
various markers which can be found in the blood that prove omega 3 from plant sources are
converted to DHA: https://youtu.be/ztXUsSX0CXs?list=FLG-L0R94dM1PWSh_hg05nww
So, you need fats for building new blood cells (and these cells go on to become muscle cells
and every other cell in the body!), but fats are also an excellent source of calories/energy,
and technically we don’t even need carbohydrates as the body can convert fat into energy.
All energy production in the body generates acidic by-products. Cars produce carbon
dioxide (an acidic gas) when they burn petrol and, in a similar way, we produce metabolic
acids when turning food into energy (more or less acid according to the fuel we choose).
Fats in their raw plant form are a much cleaner fuel than carbohydrates; they burn slowly
and do not generate so much acid. Sugar metabolism burns through more oxygen, whereas
fats create a stable, alkaline and oxygenated environment which makes you feel calm and
focused – leaving lots of oxygen for your brain and muscles to work properly. Lactic acid is
created when your cells burn sugar and without enough oxygen being present. It’s best to
exercise slowly and to use fat for fuel- with focus on stamina. Explosive, adrenaline/sugar
based exercise will quickly burn up all the oxygen and then lactic acid is formed. The ‘no
pain, no gain’ mantra is wrong. Muscle can be built without pain as long as you have
healthy red blood cells to build new muscle with.
Slow burn is a great book, written by Stu Mittelman. He runs very long distances using fats
for fuel and focusing on pH balance. The body can only store a small amount of fuel in the
form of sugar, (hence why runners load up on carbs and then still need sugar gels etc. when
running) but the body can store far more energy in the form of fat
Switching from carbs to burning fat instead, allows the pancreas to ‘rest’ and to heal,
whereas sugar metabolism taxes the pancreas which is otherwise forced to constantly
produce insulin. Fats provide a slow release of energy (or electrons) which prevents the
fungi stimulating blood sugar spikes associated with carbohydrates.
The problem is that most of us have conditioned our body to burn carbs for fuel. It will take
a while to condition and train the body to burn fats effectively. Moderate exercise is
required to raise metabolism every day (even brisk walking once or twice a day) otherwise
the fats you eat won’t be burned properly.
Also, the 'little and often' approach is important. If you start guzzling lots of fats and oils,
you will stall your digestion and feel sluggish. If you've ever made a small fire then dumped
loads of wood on it, you will see how the flames go out as it chokes the flames. It is the
same in the body, you need to use ‘kindling’ and then stoke the fire gently (i.e. build
metabolism) and, as your body burns fats better, you can keep adding more fat to your diet,
otherwise you will feel sluggish and heavy. Also it requires a mental shift as carbs give you a
rush, and fats give you nothing exciting at first – carbs are like putting petrol on a fire, you
get instant flames but it burns out quickly, fat burns longer but takes a while to catch fire.
But, as metabolism shifts you start to feel you are getting really good consistent energy.
Avocados are a great source of energy, they are high in ‘calories’ but are very easy to digest
and do not produce as much acid when being metabolized. Eat several avocados per day if
you want.
Fats are also very alkalizing and are used by the body to buffer and neutralize acids. The
name ‘essential fatty acids’ is misleading because they are alkaline forming and the body
uses fat to buffer and neutralize acids.
Liver flushing will help the body to process good fats more effectively. A congested liver (if
you have a history of drug or medication use or a very toxic diet) may cause you struggle
with a diet which is higher in fats, so you may need to take this into account and see how
you feel. Once your body is healthy and alkaline and you have your fuel-mix sorted, you
will only need about 5 hours’ sleep! Fats create less free-radicals than carbs, so less sleep is
required.
It’s best not to cook with olive oil; ideally use extra virgin coconut oil as it tolerates high
temperatures without oxidizing. But use olive oil until you get hold of some good coconut
oil. Steam-fry the veg first and then add oil towards the end.
Hydrate: This is non-negotiable if you want to be healthier. If you don’t change the oil in
your car…. you wreck the car and it is equally important to change the water in your body
every single day. It’s like changing the water in your inner-aquarium (the blood) so the fish
(your cells) are not swimming in their own wastes.
Water is required for flushing out the acid wastes which our cells naturally generate
throughout the day. You should aim to pee at least 12 times per day when cleansing, so
more trips to the bathroom but the bathroom is where acids are eliminated. Hydration is
also essential for keeping the blood thin and preventing constipation as water gets used up
in the process of digesting foods.
The fluids you drink are maybe more important than the food you eat. You will feel great
benefit from drinking 1 litre of energized, electron-rich water upon waking to flush out the
acids in the kidneys. The body’s pH will drop to its lowest overnight as it tries to process all
the acids from the previous day, so flushing your system with alkaline water is a fantastic
way to start the day. If you can’t manage a whole litre, then start with a pint and work up
and always be sure to drink in-between meals.
Drink 3-4 litres or more of a good quality water each day, this may sound like a lot if you are
not used to drinking water but you can start small and build up over weeks and months.
You get used to drinking and the feeling associated with being well hydrated and before you
know it, drinking non-acidic fluids will become habit.
Many people say they don’t like water, but have you ever drunk from a mountain stream on
a hot summer’s day? I remember the first time I tried water from a mountain spring in the
Lake District and it was the best drink I’d ever tasted, I never knew water is supposed to be
sweet and I couldn’t stop drinking it!
Tap, filtered (distilled, Reverse Osmosis) and bottled waters are dead, meaning they are full
of protons and over time will have the cumulative effect of depleting your electrons.
Energized water is so much easier to drink than other waters which all smell, taste and feel
horrid.
Ionized water is moreish and you find yourself wanting to drink more and you feel a subtle,
or not so subtle shift in your energy levels. Tap water, due to its lack of many important
properties, doesn’t get absorbed properly so it makes you need to pee right away. If you
are drinking good water, you will not need to pee as urgently because much more of the
water is actually absorbed by your cells instead of going straight through you. As you get
used to hydrating you will be able to comfortably hold more water in your bladder for
longer.
A water filter/ionizer is a good long term investment – if you’ve been buying bottled water,
work out the cost per day and you will see a good water filter will pay for itself and the
quality of water will be far higher.
Also its best to drink water which is either warm or at least body-temperature – cold water
shuts digestion down and has a cumulative effect in making the body cold. Warm water has
the opposite effect.
The really incredible results occur during the cleansing phase when drinking 6 litres or more
of alkaline fluids daily.
Energized water: In rivers and streams, water is flowing over rocks and constantly swirling
about which is what generates the desired negative charge. When water passes through
straight pipes and is stored, it reacts with the air and loses its electrical charge. Tap water
has a positive/plus charge of around +150, (tea, coffee and colas are far worse) meaning the
body will have to waste is own electrons to ionize the water and give it a negative charge to
make it safe and usable. Anything with a + symbol means it will oxidize (grab/steal your
electrons) or ‘rust’ the cells in the body. Anything with a – symbol usually has the opposite
effect and is anti-oxidant as it will grab hold of anything with a + charge and render it
harmless. Negatively charged water will also contribute electrical energy which is what the
body runs on…not fat, sugar protein, but electrons. So a good ionizer will give you water
with a charge of around – 800
When you drink ionized water the first thing you will notice is an increase in mental and
physical energy and it is the one ‘supplement’ which I think everyone should use, especially
as it is a one-time investment. You can buy basic devices for a few hundred dollars which
are incredibly effective for the money such as the pH Miracle Watermark.
Vaccines: https://youtu.be/6oEtF8FdqpA
I know the subject of vaccination is controversial but I am convinced they do far more harm
than good and that they are unnecessary. I understand the concerns people have about
this issue but this is largely due to a lack of understanding and I will share some information
which I think should clarify things.
Before I say why I think vaccines are unnecessary, I will say that I totally agree with the
points raised in the video clip above and that if we are going to vaccinate, then we should
do so selectively and nobody needs 30 plus vaccines. There should be proper testing and
researching of ALL the ingredients contained in vaccines. Mercury and other toxic
ingredients should be removed. And we shouldn't give multiple shots to babies on the
same day.
Personally I believe vaccines are not required when people are truly healthy. Even Pasteur
(who coined the germ theory) admitted on his deathbed that "the pathogen is nothing; the
terrain is everything" this basically means that germs will only get a foothold in a weakened
or compromised body. When we are healthy, germs are no threat to us. So the real work
should be on building health instead of trying to bleach and sterilize everything and
vaccinating people. Vaccines damage the immune system, acidify the body and damage the
small intestine due to the many toxic ingredients. This starts a cycle of antibiotic
dependence which further weakens the body's resistance to illness in general. People then
look around them and see that everyone is sick and this reinforces the perception that
germs cause disease and that we need more of the very things which destroy health
(vaccines, antibiotics and other pharmaceuticals).
The problem now is that since WW2, people have commonly been raised on formula milk
which lacks the immune building properties of breast milk, and people have been
vaccinated, given antibiotics and then there are the thousands of other immune and health
suppressing chemicals to which we are all now exposed in this modern world (not to
mention all the nuclear fall-out from the atomic bomb testing). So in short, we have much
weaker constitutions these days. Because we are genetically weaker now (and remember, a
lot of our strongest genetics were wiped out by the 2 great wars when millions of strong
men with the best genes lost their lives) and have higher toxic loads and less minerals in the
soil due to intensive agriculture, people who choose not to vaccinate their children, unless
they really understand good nutrition and alternative health, may find that their children
still get sick (also due to genetically modified and antibiotic resistant strains of bacteria),
which of course again feeds the perception that vaccines are necessary.
In an ideal scenario where people started eating and living right and where the air, water
and soil quality of the world were restored to pristine levels, it would take several
generations to fully rehabilitate humanity to its original blueprint. I know people will say
we are healthier now than ever before, but the reason people got sick 70 years ago was
often due to poor nutrition and sanitation and physically difficult living/working
conditions. They may have died younger but their immune systems were incredible and
they were phenomenally robust and hardy. If we could combine our original constitution
of 70 years ago, with the working/living conditions of today and availability of good food,
minus all the pollution (air, water and electrical radiation), drugs, vaccines, emotional stress
we would have the winning combination!
For now, it means using a water filtration system, sourcing clean food (organic where
possible), avoiding eating fish, not least due to the mercury content and never eating
commercial meat due to presence of antibiotics, pesticides and hormones. If you are
wondering about whether to vaccinate your child, then you need to understand pH balance
and then make that choice for yourself. If you and your children are pH balanced then
germs will be far less likely to get a foothold and if on the odd occasion you are out of
balance or run down and one of you picks up a bug of some kind, it won't fully take hold. I
very rarely get any colds of coughs, but if I ever feel the start of something coming on, I
flush it out of my system before it can establish itself. Luckily I have never taken antibiotics
and so my body is actually quite hardy, but I was damaged by vaccines and the mercury
affected my mood and mental state. It is only since making a deliberate effort to remove
mercury from my system that I have recovered and so I really want parents to educate
themselves about the ingredients in vaccines as the damage caused by them can be
significant and long lasting. People also say that vaccines eradicated Polio, but it is worth
mentioning that polio was never eradicated - it was just reclassified, mostly as MS. This is a
good article which explains Pasteur's deathbed statement about how, contrary to his
original theory, germs are not to be feared: https://thebovine.wordpress.com/pasteur/</a>
