CLEANSING THE BODY
AN ESSENTIAL AVENUE TO GOOD HEALTH
I am a great believer in detox CLEANSING and CLEANSING DIETS for the whole body and for specific organs. These different cleanses have been a big part of my healing, both physically, mentally, and emotionally. But you need to be WISE and know when to back off or stop a cleanse to protect the immune system. I see people all the time who think they need to boldly go the distance with a cleanse even though they can hardly get out of bed because of weakness.
Please remember that No matter what the book says, you need to be WISE. If you get excessively weak or develop severe cold or flu like symptoms, you should cut your cleansing short, let your body recover and then do it again. When it comes to cleansing, bigger (or longer) is NOT always better.
If it is done wisely, the benefits of body cleansing and detoxification can far outweigh the discomforts of the cleanse itself.

What Is Detoxification?
Detoxification is the
process of clearing toxins from the body and clearing the excess mucus and congestion. Many of
these toxins come from our diet, drug use, and environmental
exposure, both acute and chronic. Internally, fats, especially
oxidized fats and cholesterol, free radicals, and other irritating
molecules act as toxins. Poor digestion, sluggish and dysfunctional colon, reduced liver function, and poor elimination through the
kidneys, respiratory system, and skin all add to increased toxicity.
Detoxification involves
dietary and lifestyle changes which reduce the intake of toxins and
improve elimination. Avoidance of chemicals, from food or other
sources such as refined food, sugar, caffeine, alcohol, tobacco, and many
drugs help to minimize the toxic load. Those lifestyle changes are a
direct result of choices you make in your life.
This is a 10 day cleanse. I have used this cleanse, but my health wouldn't allow me to do it for the full 10 days. I have used it for 3 to 5 days at a time and for ME that has been sufficient. I received the desired results and I can do it once a month if needed. I have many clients who have also done this cleanse, but again we have found that even 2 or 3 days is very sufficient. Some of them who have done it for the full 10 days and had good results, but have really suffered extreme fatigue and headaches, and it took them many weeks to get their digestive system back to normal.

One of the most frequent
bowel problems that people experience today is 
constipation. A constipated system is when the elimination of the waste material is to slow. The longer
the transit time, the longer the toxic waste matter sits
in our bowel, which allows it to putrefy, ferment and possibly be
reabsorbed into your body. The longer your body is exposed to putrefying food in
your intestines, the greater the risk of developing disease.
Disease usually begins
with a toxic bowel. Those having fewer bowel movements are harboring
a potentially fertile breeding ground for serious diseases.
Infrequent or poor quality bowel movements over an extended period of
time can be very hazardous to your health.
A good cleansing program
should always begin by removing the waste in your colon. If you attempt to clean your
liver, kidneys, blood, or lymph system without first addressing a waste-filled
bowel, the excreted toxins will only get recycled back into your
body.
All the refined sugar, white
flour, hormone and antibiotic filled meats, food colorings and preservatives we constantly eat,
constitutes an assault on our bodies. We are continuously violating
our bodies by eating terrible foods.
When detoxifying your
colon, it is extremely important to that you incorporate probiotics in your diet to
replenish your intestinal flora.
A proper colon cleansing program removes the mucous and waste from the colon. Even a thin layer of
mucous waste weakens the body. Because of stress and diet, most Americans have many
hardened layers of mucous and waste. A proper colon cleanse and detoxification
program prepares your body for optimal health by removing all of these layers.
Begin by changing to a
diet rich in raw fruits and vegetables with
very few cooked or
processed foods. If that is too hard on your system to begin with, then lightly steam
your vegetables. Regular and easy elimination will
eventually be the rule, toxins will
not build up and foods will be fully digested and utilized. This
optimum nutrition allows rejuvenation and peak vitality. Of course it
was a process over years or decades to get the body so full of toxic waste, so it will be a process to detox and
get your body back to its highest possible state of health.
"Colon cleanse", "Bowel Cleanse", "Intestinal Cleanse" or
"Intestinal Therapy" are terms referring to a procedure, which has as its main goal to have a clean bowel. A real bowel cleanse can take from 3 to 4 weeks, and up to a few
months, depending on the person. But don't get discouraged, it's
worth it.
Natural colon cleansing usually means following a colon cleansing diet along
with taking some colon cleansing supplements which may include herbs
which kill parasites and worms, contain digestive
enzymes and probiotics (beneficial bacteria). It will also contain herbs that
stimulates the liver, gallbladder and intestines, such as psyllium husk or
seeds, Cascara Sagrada, or flax seeds, or slippery elm, among many other herbs which are essential to assist the cleansing.
A standard bowel cleanse will include fasting on water, juices, raw fruits and vegetables. Salt water enema's are also used to flush toxins and heal the tissues.
Bentonite clay and
flaxseeds assist with the colon cleansing process. Bentonite is a
type of edible clay that acts as a bulk laxative by absorbing water
to form a gel. It binds toxins such as pesticides and helps to carry
them out of the colon. Flaxseeds also absorb water and expand in the
colon, allowing toxins and mucus to be removed. In addition,
flaxseeds have been found to lower cholesterol levels.
As part of your colon
cleansing program, take 1 tbs. of liquid bentonite and one
tbs. of ground flaxseeds in a glass of water first thing in the
morning (wait at least 1/2 hour before eating) and before bed. Drink
at least 8 glasses of water per day or constipation may result. You
should take the bentonite separate from medications or supplements
because it may interfere with absorption.
The gallbladder is a 3-inch long membranous sac attached underneath the liver. Excess bile, which comes from the liver, is stored in the gallbladder. The purpose of bile is to break down the fat when it comes into the digestive area.
Some Gall Bladder attack symptoms could include some of the following:
Moderate to severe pain under the right side of the rib cage
Pain that radiates through to the back or to the right shoulder
Severe upper abdominal pain
Nausea, Queasiness or Vomiting
Gas and Burping or belching
Attacks are often at night can occur after overeating
Pain will often but not always follow a meal with fats or grease
Pain may be worse with deep inhalation
Attacks can last from 15 minutes to 15 hours
Please note that if you are in severe pain and your attack symptoms are accompanied by a fever DO SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.
This gallbladder cleanse takes 4 days and is simple and inexpensive. You will need 4 gallons of apple juice (or enough apples to juice on your own to make 4 gallons). 4 gallons of distilled
water, 1/2 c extra virgin olive oil, 3 lemons (or
enough to make 1/4 cup lemon juice).
Each day for 4 days you drink up to 1 gallon of apple juice and up to 1 gallon of distilled water. During this time you should make sure that you have extra time to rest and not do any hard physical work.
Each morning or evening, do an enema to help remove toxins that settle in the colon.
The third night, when you are ready for bed, drink 1/2 cup of virgin olive oil and 1/4 cup of fresh squeezed lemon juice. I mixed them together and it was much easier to get down. Don't gulp it, take about 10 to 20 minutes to drink it and you shouldn't have much if any nausea. Go directly to bed and lie down on your right side. You may change your position after 4 or 5 hours. If you choose to, you can repeat this on the fourth night also, but it is not necessary.
On the fifth day, begin eating food slowly. It will take 3 or 4 days before for your digestive system will be ready for a normal diet. For 3 or 4 days following the fast, eat plenty of raw fruits 
and vegetables and drink unsweetened juices to restart the digestive mechanisms. Fruits are easiest to digest. On the second day after the cleanse, a simple vegetable soup with plenty of broth is good. The soup that I use after my cleansing program is the Sacred Heart Diet soup. I don't do the whole diet, I just like the soup recipe.
I have a friend who owned a health food store and she told me about this cleanse. I also checked on the internet and there are several variations to this same cleanse. My friend also told me that one of her clients who does this gall bladder cleanse on a regular basis takes 1 Tbs of Olive oil and 1 Tbs of lemon juice every night of the cleanse to soften the gall stones. I did it that way when I did the cleanse and I really liked the way it helped to cleaned me out.
If you have diabetes or hypoglycemia, this may not be a good program for you.
There is another Gallbladder cleanse that was created by Dr.Hulda Regehr Clark. She wrote the book "The Cure of All Diseases". Her cleanse takes less time, but because it cleanses you so fast, there can be more discomfort. Sometimes we need to make a choice between 'fast' and 'comfortable'. It is always good to have choices.

Every day, a person’s kidneys process about 200
quarts of blood to sift out about 2 quarts of waste products and
extra water. The wastes and extra water become urine.
Wastes in the blood come from the normal breakdown of
toxins from active muscles and tissues, and from food. After
the body has taken the nutrition that it needs from the food we eat,
the wastes are sent to the blood. If the kidneys can not remove the waste, it would build up in the blood and damage the body.
The kidneys perform a wide range of vital
functions in the healthy body:
Removes wastes and water from the blood
Balances chemicals in your body and Releases hormones
Helps to control blood pressure and produce red blood cells
Produces vitamin D, which keeps the bones strong and
healthy
Acid - Base balance (excretes alkaline salts)
Helps balance Fluids and Electrolytes
Here are a few signs of poor kidney health and kidney stone symptoms
Lower back pain, kidney pain, and edema (water
retention).
It takes a lot of liquid to "wash" the inside
of your body. Taking it in the form of juice or herbal teas can give
you some extra benefits and enjoyment, especially if you need
to produce a gallon of urine a day!
There are hundreds of herbal recipes, and many
different homeopathic remedies used for cleansing kidney stones.
Corn-silk tea is great single herb for increasing urine
flow and restoring the kidneys.
Parsley leaves and root tea is commonly used for kidney
cleanse
Parsley seeds are also diuretics, and are used for
dissolving kidney stones
Juice fasting (vegetable juices) is used for cleansing
kidneys
Lemonade diet also known as the MASTER CLEANSE, is also
commonly used for a Kidney cleanse
The following cleanse I received from Shirlynn Watson, who studied for many years with her Uncle Dr. Stan Malstrom N.D., M.T. He wrote the book "Own Your Own Body".
Kidney stones can be softened by apple juice and lemon
juice. For the first 3 days just drink apple juice. On the 4th
day drink lemon juice and distilled water on the hour, and only distilled
water on the half hour. You can do this for about five to seven
days (If you are not sick or extremely fatigued.) On the last day mix 3 to 4 oz of lemon juice with 3 to 4 oz of
olive oil and drink it slowly to throw the kidneys and liver into
spasm, which will help flush out the stones.
Most people with hypoglycemia can handle the apple
juice in this fast. But if you are one of the few who cannot, there
is an alternative. For gall stones or kidney stones you can follow
this program for up to 10 days, (again, BE WISE). Each morning, about an hour before
breakfast, drink 2 to 3 ounces of olive oil, 2 to 3 ounces of mineral
water in grape juice. At the end of 10 days, continue the mineral
water and grape juice, omitting the olive oil, for the liver will be
over-saturated.
After a fast of a few days for stones, hot compresses
or clay packs over the kidneys or the gall bladder may be used to
help to pull the toxins. Enemas are always an essential part of a
fast to keep the colon moving, and in assisting stone removal.
If there are no kidney stones, water is
enough to cleanse the kidneys. Your body is made up of mostly water. It is in
every tissue and every cell. Water is necessary for biological
processes such as circulation, digestion, absorption, and excretion.
It is the foundation for maintaining healthy muscles, blood and
lymph, and younger looking skin. It is impossible to function without
it.
The key to clean kidneys and over all health, is to
drink plenty of water, juice, and herbal teas along with a
proper diet.
