Agar Agar a medicinal super food

Agar agar, aka kanten, seaweed gelatin, China grass, sea vegetable gelatin (gelatina vegetal). Agar agar is a sea weed extract that is mostly found in health food stores and supermarkets, especially Asian supermarkets in a white powder or thread form. The thread form looks like translucent plastic threads. Agar agar is also used as a vegan substitute for gelatin.

Uses of Agar Agar
  • Medicinally, agar has several applications. For instance, it is used as a mild laxative that can help in removing toxins, fats and sugar from the gut. Since it absorbs glucose from the stomach and passes through the gut quickly, agar agar is ideal for people with type 2 diabetes melitus. Additionally, it also absorbs cholesterol and is therefore good for lowering cholesterol. In fact, agar agar is even used as a more effective and vegan substitute for gelatin for treating bone, cartilage and joint damage. In fact, its use can prevent the need for operations like hip and knee replacement. Since it helps to regenerate tissue and organs, agar agar is even repairs kidney and heart damage. In fact, it is simply useful in the treatment of all diseases and injuries, including heart disease, cancer, Alzheimers and Parkinsons disease. Since agar agar can contribute to the reversal of any disease (and improvement of one's general health), its use may contribute to not needing / avoiding stem cell transplants (a common treatment for some types of cancer). Yes, it is also good estrogen-dependent cancers like breast cancer, ovarian tumors and uterine cancer. It is common for medical use to involve one serving daily for up to 2 months, 30 minutes before meals or 2 hours after meals. However, do NOT use agar agar if you have viral or bacterial infections (as it promotes microbial growth).
  • For weight loss and as a high fiber, vegan health food in ice cream, jelly desserts, meal replacement recipes, 'milk' thickeners and so on. As with any other algae, it is rich in iodine and trace minerals. It is often used for weight loss because it is free of sugar, carbs, fat and calories but has lots of fiber. Furthermore, agar agar is free from starch, soy, corn, gluten, yeast, wheat, milk, egg and preservatives. Agar allows you to create solid forms from liquids to the extent that the end product may be sliced with a knife, chewed and swallowed. Although having 0 calories, it has a slightly sweet taste. Although the taste of end products can be the same as gelatin (an animal product), agar agar renders end products with a different feel. For instance, agar agar products do not have the same soft and bouncy feeling as gelatin. Agar agar is commonly used to thicken soups, ice creams and to create fruit desserts. NB, Agar agar is free of taste, odor or color. NB it will not set in certain conditions, namely in wine, vinegar, distilled water, foods rich in oxalic acid (like chocolate, spinach, beets, beet greens, wheat germ, peanuts).
  • Cosmetically, agar agar can be used to soften and moisturize the skin and hair. It can therefore be used in soap, ointments, lotions and creams, especially since it has anti-wrinkling properties. It has been said to be used in toothpaste.


Agar Agar in Powder Form
Quantity to use is roughly 1 tsp powder : 1.3 cups liquid for a sold product that can be cut with a knife.
  • Add the powder to only cold water or other clear liquid that allows you to see how well it dissolves. (It will form clumps if added to hot water). 
  • Whisk and bring to a boil until the powder is completely dissolved. Check whether the agar agar has completely dissolved by looking at the solution while it pours out of a spoon. 
  • Continue whisking until the end to ensure the agar agar does not settle and create a gel layer at the bottom of the pot.
  • Dissolve sugar if you wish the sweet taste. 
  • Turn off the heat and quickly add fruit puree (and lime to taste if you wish), tea, milk and or juice. 
  • Pour into the mold while still hot. Get rid of air bubbles before the liquid cools and sets by stirring around them with a spoon and or tapping the bottom of a firm mold on a hard surface. 
  • Add chunks of fruit and pieces of leaves (like mint for instance). 
  • Allow to set either at room temperature or in the refrigerator. (Unlike gelatin, agar agar does not need to be refrigerated in order to set). If you wish to pour different layers, use a fork to stick holes in the first layer when it has already fully set before pouring the second layer. Do not worry about melting the first layer since agar agar does not melt easily with heat.

-- --

Agar Agar in Strand Form
Quantity to use is roughly 1/3 cup of chopped up strands : 1.3 cups liquid for a sold product that can be cut with a knife.
  • Soak the strands in cold water or  other clear liquid that allows you to see how well it dissolves for 15 minutes. 
  • When soft and hydrated, simmer for roughly 5 minutes or until the pieces are completely dissolved.
  • Follow the steps used for the powder form after the powder is thoroughly dissolved in hot liquid. (See above)

Sprouting 101: Demo Lentil Sprouts

Sprouts are the first sign of the germination in water of nuts, grains or seeds. They are usually tiny off shoots before established leaves develop. Depending on the seed, sprouts usually reach this stage of development within 2 to 5 days. (Lentils usually take between 2 to 3 days).
 Naturopathic Control: Sprouting 101 with Lentil Sprouts

Uses of Sprouts

  • Medicinal (see below the specific benefits associated with sprouting certain seeds)
  • Ingredient in salads, soup, stir fry and other meal options when doing the naturopathic cleansing program  
  • Part of a ferment (like sauerkraut)


Benefits of Sprouting

  • Makes nutrients and enzymes more available for digestion than is possible from the seed, grain or nut.
  • Easier to digest than the seed. Sprouting avoids the ‘anti-nutrients’ (ie substances like phytic acid that disrupt the body’s absorption of nutrients and enzymes) in the nuts, seeds and grains. Soaking, the preliminary component of sprouting, reduces anti-nutrients by as much as 90% or more within only one day. This benefit is especially noteworthy for people suffering from digestive and or autoimmune problems. In that case, the flatulence caused by lentils for instance may be eradicated by sprouting.
  • Easy to do in your kitchen, even if it is dark; inexpensive, its need for space is limited to only a jar or small container
  • Sprouting can be done with numerous other seeds that include alfalfa, amaranth, arugula, broccoli, buckwheat, cabbage, channa, fenugreek, kale, millet, mung, pumpkin, raddish, quinoa, sesame seeds, snow peas, sunflower (un-hulled), tef and wheat grass. In fact, you can choose among these seeds according to your health (or other) objectives. For instance, fenugreek is among the best for detoxification; most alkalinizing sprouts include those from amaranth, millet, quinoa and tef; most nutritionally dense sprouts include arugula, alfalfa broccoli, cabbage, kale and raddish; brocoli for thyroid and cancer-related problems; sunflower for protein, phytosterols, essential fatty acids and fiber; sesame seeds for protein and moderate amounts of manganese and copper; and alfalfa for vitamins C, K and B and to balance cholesterol and support the immune system (BUT controversial since they have canavanine that can inhibit the immune system). When choosing, consider the ease of sprouting the different seeds. For instance, chia, hemp and flax seeds are arguably difficult to sprout (but better for making microgreens). There are however some seeds that should not be sprouted. For instance, do NOT sprout red kidney beans (because they contain a toxic compound in their sprouts. Having said this, they are safe to be cooked after being soaked.

Sprouting Challenges

The seed can sometimes carry bacteria that cause food borne illness. In fact, they had been connected to outbreaks of salmonella and E-coli. This is especially possible if care is not taken to properly sterilize implements and hands in the germination process. Outside of sterilization, you may avoid this problem by soaking sprouts in 1:6, ie lemon juice: water solution for 15 minutes before eating sprouts. This will kill bacteria in the sprouts.

How to Sprout Lentils
You will need:
  • Organic lentil seeds. You can get these at supermarkets and or health food stores. A friend left a store empty handed when she asked for ‘sprouting seeds’. Simply ask for ‘lentil seeds’.
  • A large glass jar with a screened ‘cover’ top (which may be a screen held in place with a rubber band)  OR  For larger volumes, a colander that fits perfectly into a solid bowl. Ideally the colander should be flat bottomed
  • Sterilizing equipment. I used a cotton wool soaked with surgical alcohol or vinegar that I rinse out with filtered water
  • Filtered water
  • Light kitchen towel or paper towels
  • Lemon as an option. You will need 1 part lemon juice to 6 parts water to soak the sprouts just before eating them. This is a technique used to ensure any bacteria are killed

Steps for Sprouting Lentils

  1. For a sprouting container of roughly 32 oz that you will grow over 3 days, 2 tbsp of seeds will suffice.

  2. Soak the seeds for 24 hours in water in any sterilized bowl. Since the seeds will expand, ensure the water level is at least 3 times higher than that of the seeds. The bowl may (not) be covered. (Some seeds require less soaking time. For instance, fenugreek seeds may require 12 hours while alfalfa seeds may require only 8 hours). 

  3. Drain off the water very well. The image below shows a bad batch of fenugreek seeds that frothed. They had not been washed and drained well. Attempts to clear up the froth with lemon juice minimized the frothing but did not encourage growth on this day 4. fenugreek sprouts gone wrong
  4. Spread the seeds out into the sprout container (ie the colander or jar) and place the colander into the big bowl. Throughout the sprouting process, handle the sprouts as little as possible. In that case, spread the sprouts by gently shaking the sprout container in which they are contained
  5. Water the seeds. To do this, submerge the seeds with a new batch of water for a few minutes. In the case of the colander and bowl, place the colander into the bowl and pour water over the sprouts until they are submerged. Otherwise, pour water into the jar.
  6. Shake gently. Shaking is a means of rinsing the seeds to ensure mold or bacteria do not form.
  7. Drain the water out (so the seeds are no longer submerged or in direct contact with water). For the colander, drain out the water from the bowl below the colander so the colander could drip dry any excess over time into the bowl. Otherwise, you can tilt screened glass jars upside down to drain out the water before sitting the jar on its side. Laying the jar on its side also extends the surface area of the lentils. -- --
  8. Cover with a light kitchen towel or even paper towel. Either way, ensure that the seeds get air circulation between each watering. This is in part to prevent molding.
  9. Water the seeds twice daily before covering with a towel. Other kinds of seeds may require more frequent watering. You will need to monitor how dry they look to determine whether they need to be watered again.
  10. After the seeds germinate and the sprouts lengthen, some seeds may become dislodged. Remove these seeds by placing the batch into a bowl of water and then skimming off the seeds.
  11.  You may eat the sprouts from day 3. However, you may eat the sprouts later if you want a less crunchy texture.         Naturopathic Control: Sprouting 101 with Lentils

  13.  In the image below, the sprouts were left for 10 days, ie well beyond the normal period. They are edible even after this extended time period.


  14. Naturopathic Control: Sprouting 101 with Lentils
      If you wish to eat the sprouts later rather than sooner, you may place them close to a source of indirect sunlight for a slightly greener result. However, the color does not affect the difference in taste.
  15. To harvest, place all the sprouts into a large bowl of filtered water. Gently shake and detangle the sprouts. The seeds will fall away. Scoop away the seeds and place in your compost bin while leaving the sprouts for your food.

If I want to store sprouts and stop their further growth, I place them in a container in the refrigerator.

Soursop leaves as a natural anticancer & diabetes treatment

Soursop leaves are a rich source of many nutrients that include but not limited to calcium, protein, vitamins A and B1 and B2. Although the benefits of the soursop can be derived by eating the fruit, eating the fruit is most effective for basic prevention. However, making teas from the leaves (fresh or dried) and, as an option, with a small piece of stem is used for healing several conditions, the most common and documented of which is cancer. 
Fortunately, soursop leaf tea has a wonderful fruity taste and can be consumed either hot or cold. You may however sweeten soursop leaf tea with honey (but not sugar).


USING THE BENEFITS OF SOURSOP LEAVES

  • Research by the National Cancer Institute (in the US) shows that soursop leaves destroy cancer cells. In fact, soursop leaf tea is deemed many times more effective as an anticancer treatment than chemotherapy. Soursop leaves are therefore an all natural alternative to chemotherapy. Thus far, all such known tests have shown given these results and studied cancers of the prostate, pancreas and lungs. Roughly 10 soursop leaves may be used to make a daily anti-cancer tea for about a month by boiling the leaves in 3 cups of uncovered water over a medium heat until the water is reduced to a cup. Consume the soursop leaf tea within 8 hours afterwards. In short, soursop leaves are an effective natural method for treating cancer, without chemotherapy. Hooray! This is such exciting news. It's been kept secret for long but no more. So cheers and take control!

  • Soursop leaves may also stabilise your blood sugar level.
  • Soursop leaves are used to boost the immune system and prevent infections. Daily immunity boost tea from soursop leaves can be made by boiling roughly 5 soursop leaves in 3.5 cups of uncovered water until the water is reduced to about a cup.
  • Using teas made of soursop leaves are also used to promote overall good health and confort. For instance, sour soup leaves are known to enhance digestion, lower high blood pressure, inhibit the growth of intestinal parasites and treat rheumatic diseases (as seen in elderly people).
  • The uric acid content in soursop leaves in teas often helps to treat gout. Daily soursop leaf teas are made a little stronger than the others by boiling roughly 10 soursop leaves in 2 cups of uncovered water until the water is reduced to a cup.
  • Soursop leaves can be used topically for skin care. For instance, soursop leaves can treat boils and  eczema by crushing the leaves and placing them on the affected area.

CONTRAINDICATIONS OF SOURSOP LEAVES

As with anything else, there are certain circumstances in which using soursop leaves is not advisable. Take the time to do some research about your personal health concerns. Here are some contraindications. 
  • Since soursop leaves are hypo-tensive (i.e. they reduce blood pressure), they should be avoided by people who suffer low blood pressure. Hypertensives who are taking medication should discuss their use of soursop and possible adjustments of their medication with their doctor so as to avoid problems with low blood pressure.
  • Soursop leaves should not be used during pregnancy since it has been shown to be a uterine stimulant (in rats)
  • Since soursop leaves are antimicrobial, prolonged use may reduce the population of good bacteria, aka probiotics needed for proper digestion. If you have such concerns, consider using probiotic-rich foods and or supplements along with soursop leaves.

My Cleanse Plan (Tropical Version)

INTRO (Read this before starting)
Below is my personal cleansing program that I created and use at home. It is divided into a few major objectives like the 'ease in', 'parasite cleanse', 'liver cleanse' and so on. Each such objective is labelled as a 'phase' to suggest how a single day might look while tackling that objective 'phase'. Depending on your needs, you may remain at a single phase for more than a single day.

Some objectives are better tackled before others. For instance, it is generally better to tackle the parasite cleanse before the liver cleanse. Consequently, each objective is labelled with phase numbers (like phase 1, phase 2 and so on) only to suggest my sequential order. Depending on your needs, you may follow the sequential order precisely. However, you may need to customize the plan in some cases. For instance, if you are a man, you will skip the vaginal douching. In some cases, you may also tackle several phases simultaneously. Phases marked 'X' are wildcards. They may be started at any time and for any duration.

Furthermore, the duration of each 'phase' and, in turn, the overall cleanse period will vary among attempts and people. Variabilities are therefore a matter of personal health concerns, convenience and intuition. For instance, even though you and a friend begin phase 1 on the same day, you may be at different phases by day 5.

When using herbs, take care to extract as many of the medicinal properties without destroying them. For instance, if you choose to use an herbal tea, while you may simmer the roots on a very low fire in a covered pan, it is usually best to steep the leaves in a tea leaf press or tea pot.


Health benefits of tropical leaves are protected with STEEPING during the full body cleanse
I was steeping Moringa tea (with other leaves for phase and flavor).  Buy this tea pot (by Primula). It steeps up to 5 cups. 
A list of ingredients and or items appears in each phase. However,  ingredients are usually implied in bullet points like "neem tea". In that case, you will need either loose neem leaves or neem tea bags. Once that ingredient is available, you have the option to buy dried leaves by clicking the link. NB: You need not buy all options. Therefore, if teas other than neem are suggested for a phase, you may choose only one. 

If you can, invest in a high quality water filter. Why cleanse to remove toxins with contaminated water? Read my short personal discussion on what the superior filtration power of Crown Berkey systems. (It removes fluoride and much more than average filters. Read how you may be able to do a fluoride detox.)

Regarding markup, my personal experiences and observations are marked in italicised green print. Sections marked with a green asterisk (*) should be applied throughout the program, even when the practice has not been mentioned in later sections. Sections marked with a red asterisk (*) may be continued for up to only a few days and those with an amber one (*) may even continue for up to roughly 30 days if necessary. For instance, parasite infestations can be best tackled over a longer period to target all reproductive stages. Without further ado, go ahead and take control. I also welcome your comments.

PHASE 0: The Night Before 

  • As much as possible, complete your 'morning' chores (like filtering extra water, setting out ingredients, washing dishes, preparing clothes, collecting items for DIY art therapy activities and so on). This will allow you to start the day well with more time for meditation and other forms of healing. *

PHASE 1A: Ease in. The ease in process is a point of getting the body ready for the cleanse that, based on your usual life style, might feel drastic. It is therefore useful to ease what may be a drastic change for your body. NB: If you normally consume animal protein, lots of fat, gluten and dairy, this 'ease in' process may extend for up to 3 days. This phase (1A) may be done in conjunction with phase 1B, especially if there are concerns related to kidney health.
  • Upon rising on an empty stomach:
    • Non strenuous exercise. Examples include 1) the 'Surya Namaskar', a sequence of sunrise yoga poses that stimulates the endocrine system and major muscle groups; 2) yogic breathing exercises called 'pranayamas' that meet your specific needs, like Kapalabhati aka Shining Skull 1 for support against diabetes or emotional trauma (I do these pranayamas while holding the apana healing mudra, shown below) and 3) Reiki self healing (Level 1 Reiki practitioners can perform this task) *. If you are new to yoga, consider learning the basic yoga techniques like breathing and poses that are specifically designed for cleansing in a program like this with local classes and or a DVD like this: Total Body Cleanse Yoga With Sybille Part 1 [HD] and Total Body Cleanse Yoga With Sybille Part 2 [HD].
    • The Kapalabhati aka Shining Skull 1 pranayama for diabetes and emotional trauma involves exhalations that resemble discreet coughs. (I do these pranayamas while holding the apana healing mudra, shown below). It is important to focus on the exhalations since your body naturally inhales as you momentarily relax between exhalations. Also focus on your third eye, ie roughly 1 inch above and at the midpoint between your eyes. It it said that this pranayama energizes that part of the body and thus the reason for the name, 'shining skull'. It is worth learning the proper technique before starting. However, as a concise guide for those who already know how to do the kapalabhati / shining skull pranayama, do the following. Sit squarely or, preferably for breathing ease, stand while bending the knees gently and the torso forward to roughly 45 degrees. Do 10 to 20 repetitions, empty the lungs and hold for as long as you can do so comfortably, refill lungs to roughly 2/3 of their capacity and relax the body as much as possible while holding for as long as you can do so comfortably. Return to a full yogic breath or normal breath, and, if you choose, repeat the process again. NB If you are hypertensive, skip the steps for holding your breath or the entire exercise.
    • All the while, slowly sip water. The water may be oxygenated with food grade hydrogen peroxide and blessed. Alternatively, the water may be energized with Reiki.*
  • Whenever feasible, incorporate yoga hand positions to enhance the detoxification process. For instance, holding both hands in the 'apana' mudra (pictured below) is particularly useful during this period for accelerating the process of these (and any type of) physical detoxification. Maintain enough pressure to feel the energy flowing through your finger tips. (Caution: Elderly persons with stomach or liver concerns should limit the apana mudra practice to 10 minutes daily. Additionally, sufferers of diarrhea, dysentery or cholera should avoid the apana hand mudra altogether.)
    • Apana mudra is for cleansing and detoxifying the body. The apana mudra regulates the excretory system, including curing constipation.
      Apana mudra cleanses and detoxifies the body. The apana mudra also regulates the excretory system, including curing constipation.


  • Breakfast (very easily digestible):
    • Grace before meals*. This involves remaining mindful of the healing power of good food. For instance, you may visualize healing not only during those moments before eating but also throughout the meal. Eat in a pleasant environment. 
    • Watery fresh onion soup with greens (moringavegetable broth powder, dandelion greens, bran flakes, natural sea salt, turmeric, cayenne pepper). No animal protein, heavy starches or carbohydrate, sugary foods, flour-based ingredients, alcohol or legumes (like protein-rich foods that include nuts, peas, lentils and beans). However, you may use legume sprouts (Sprouting 101: Lentil Sprout Demo). Add greens and turmeric after turning off heat. Do not do large amounts that require re-heating that damage the nutrition in light greens.
      Naturopathic Control: Sprouting 101 with Lentils
    • sauerkraut with about 1 tbsp extra virgin coconut oil and crushed garlic. May accompany salad
    • unsweetened herbal infusions (moringa leaf)
  • After breakfast and between meals:
    • unsweetened herbal infusions (moringa leaf)
    • sauerkraut with about 1 tbsp extra virgin coconut oil and crushed garlic. May accompany salad or be eaten alone.
  • Lunch:
    • Same as breakfast. (If you are worried about becoming bored with the repetition, use soup for one meal and a large salad for the other
  •  General activities throughout the day
  • Supper (no later than 2 or more hours before bedtime)
    • Fresh organic salad and or barely steamed or raw greens (no legumes). BTW, the flowers of Cassia Alata (whose leaves are used in the liver phase) can be used in the salad. 
  • Bed time
      • As much as possible, complete your 'morning' chores (like filtering extra water, setting out ingredients, washing dishes, preparing clothes and so on). This will allow you to start the day well with more time for meditation and other forms of healing. *
      • Meditation, constructive thinking exercises, earnest prayers, etc *
      • If constipated or bloated, Drink a laxative:
        • In 1 cup of room temperature water, add 1 tsp of powdered / whole psyllium husk. Add more psyllium husk if you are familiar with how how much your body needs. If possible, also add 1 tsp of slippery elm. As an alternative to psyllium husk (and slippery elm), use senna tea. NB Senna leaf, especially psyllium husk are unsuitable for those suffering from kidney disease
      • Sleep in complete darkness (to promote your body's ability to produce natural melatonin, a powerful antioxidant that promotes healing) *


    PHASE 1B: Kidney cleanse. The kidneys are a final point of filtration and detoxification. Consequently, kidney cleansing and general kidney health care should be among the earliest objectives when undertaking more aggressive detoxification programs for the colon (like the salt water flush that may begin during phase 2). Read more about why kidney cleansing may be a very important preliminary step for the salt water flush.





    PHASE 2: Parasite cleanse. If you are particularly concerned about parasites, consider extending the parasite cleanse by a few days before starting the liver cleanse. To know if you have a parasite problem, read this post.
    • Upon rising on an empty stomach:
      • Drink water and perform non strenuous mental and spiritual exercises (as discussed above under 'day 1')*
      • Salt water flush (optional. Decide whether doing this flush along with the enema is too aggressive for you. For most beginners, it is probably better to choose to do one or the other. The flush may be preferable for fasting.
      • Enema (neem enema. Subsequent days, garlic enema at potency suitable to your personal tolerance) and or for a very aggressive approach if your body can handle it. If your body can handle it, graduate to doing this enema as a high volume enema*.(Buy neem leaves ) (On day 3, I did this neem enema when the evacuations were relatively clear. In my case, that was roughly 12 hours after the salt water flush. I think this order was useful to allow my body a better chance to absorb the neem. It was quite effective. During one cleanse, it was possibly 'too effective' because I went into a healing crisis  aka Herxhelmer Reaction. Fortunately, I knew about healing crises and did not stop the cleanse process. I increased my water intake to help my body to expel the new concentration of toxins so the symptoms could subside.)
    • Breakfast 
    • After breakfast, snacks, other meals for the rest of the day
      • FOOD GRADE Diatomaceous Earth (DE) and or crushed garlic in lemonade (Master cleanse recipe). BTW, DE is also useful for a fluoride detox.*
      • Herbal teas throughout day*
        • Soursop tea (also very effective as anticancer treatment. Learn more)
        • Coraili (Momordica Charrantia) tea (BTW, this herb is also good for diabetes*
      • Water when or if the other forms of water (like soups and teas) will not meet your water requirement (of roughly 8 to 10 glasses for the day)
      • Small portions of soup, sauerkraut and or salad in quantities that will not bloat your stomach. Excessive gas in the GI tract and flatulence are signs of parasite die-off that is too rapid. Eat less sauerkraut to slow this process down.
      • DO NOT EAT LATER THAN ROUGHLY 2 HOURS BEFORE BED TIME. This will help to properly digest foods.
    • Bed time
      • Same details as in 'Ease In' phase above
      • If constipated or bloated, Drink a laxative:
        • 1 tsp of powdered / whole psyllium husk (or more if you know this ingredient and how much your body needs) in 1 cup of room temperature water. If possible, also add 1 tsp of slippery elm. ... Alternatively, use senna tea.
    -- --
    PHASE 2: Vaginal Douche You may continue this for up to 5 consecutive days, if required. 


    PHASE 2: Chelation for heavy metal detoxification 

    You may continue this objective for up to 30 consecutive days, if required. 
    • Meals: same as 'phase 2: parasite cleanse' above
    • Consume the following throughout the day. However, I do not use these clays while doing kidney cleanses.

    PHASE 3Master Colon Cleanse & Lime Juice Fast 
    Beginners usually pursue this fast for up to 10 days. Others may proceed for up to 40 consecutive days if required. Use intuition and common sense. For instance, I did this phase for 14 days despite being used to this fast. Given my relatively light weight and how my body felt, I did not want to lose too much weight and did not believe my body needed much longerIf high-volume enemas are used, the maximum number of days may be reduced. Additionally, you can know when your body is becoming cleaner by a few signs such as a clean mouth and breath upon rising. You may tackle this and parasite cleanse simultaneously. However, this phase is a fast and therefore does not include the meals of the parasite cleanse.
    • Upon rising on an empty stomach:
      • Salt water flush OR use sea salt water enema
      • NB. Whenever pursuing a series of colon flushes (oral and or anal) and if you can use enemas (ie anal flushes), use the acidophilus enema as the last of all enema repeats 1) on the final day of all types of cleanses or 2) on the final day for taking enemas or salt water flushes.

























  • Bed time
      • If constipated or bloated, Drink a laxative:
        • See details above in the 'Ease In' phase
      • On the final cleanse day before your ease-out period of all cleanse types, you should no longer feel constipated or bloated and should therefore no longer require a laxative. Otherwise, your body might still need further cleansing.


    PHASE 6Kidney (& Prostate) Cleanse 
    Kidney cleanses may be done around the time of the liver cleanse.
    • Upon rising on an empty stomach:
      • See details in either 'parasite cleanse' or 'master cleanse' section marked either * or *
    • Meals:
      During this time, I do NOT use chelation clays (see 'chelation' phase above) because of their high absorbency. I suspect they may counteract my attempts at flushing the kidneys.
        • See details in either 'parasite cleanse' or 'master cleanse' section
      • Herbal teas throughout day (and *soups)
      During this time, I do NOT use chelation clays (see 'chelation' phase above) because of their high absorbency. I suspect they may counteract my attempts at flushing the kidneys.


      PHASE 7Liver Cleanse  
      Liver cleanses should be done after parasite cleanses. However, they may proceed before, during and after colon cleanses (see master colon cleanse or 'master cleanse' above). If you need to pay special attention to liver, incorporate the steps as the full instructions for a liver and gall bladder flush.
      • Upon rising on an empty stomach:
