Detoxify and Rejuvenate Your Body with Proven Protocols

I called for an appointment and 1 week later, drove to Grapevine and met Kelley and his wife at their small home/office. They took a blood sample by finger stick and an extensive questionnaire about lifestyle and dietary habits. From this came a computer profile of my nutritional deficiencies and a manual outlining supplements to buy (from Kelley), coffee enemas, and menu suggestions. The coffee enemas kind of threw me at the time as enemas brought up distasteful childhood memories and I questioned Kelley on his rational for this protocol. He was very secretive about divulging any sources for his rational. I soon learned that it played a vital role in how I was going to detoxify my body.

But, I must give Kelley credit for his use of pancreatic enzymes in his protocols...

In 1969, Kelley had published his own book, ONE ANSWER TO CANCER, after going through his own personal battle with pancreatic cancer. In it, he presented a dietary program taken from his own experience and further research. It soon became a best-seller in the “nutritional underground” and antagonized those in “orthodox medicine”.

The importance of protein metabolism...

While opposing my own medical background, I concur with Dr. Kelley, that the root cause of cancer is the body’s inability to metabolize (digest and utilize) protein. Of course, I did not know it at that time but having gleaned it as well from my own healing experience and further investigation, I support the belief that proper protein digestion plays a critical role in eliminating and preventing further cancers. In William Kelley’s own words:

"The person gets cancer because he's not properly metabolizing the protein in his diet," said Dr. Kelley. "Then, to make matters worse, the tumor has such a high metabolism that it uses up much of the food which is eaten." If a person's disordered protein metabolism is not corrected, Kelley continued, "it will give rise to more tumors in the future, even if the first one is successfully removed. This, by the way, is the unfortunate reason why so many seemingly successful cancer operations end up in recurrences a year or two later. The tumor was removed, but the cause-improper protein metabolism-remained."

Dr. Kelley linked faulty metabolism to a deficiency of pancreatic enzymes that are more readily associated with digestion in the small intestines. Kelley, however, maintained that these same enzymes are also secreted into the bloodstream where they reach all body tissues and digest cancer cells...the very cells that block our immune system from functioning. Dr. Kelley also identified mineral imbalance as a root cause of the breakdown of the immune system.

These three factors: pancreatic enzymes, mineral supplementation and the use of enemas to detoxify greatly influenced my own natural self-healing of colon/pancreatic cancer...

Within 6 months, I was symptom free, but felt that there were many more answers to self healing other than what I was doing with Kelley’s program.... About one year later, someone who knew me gave me a book about Dr. Max Gerson. He was a German born physician who came to NY in the 1920’s and was healing people of cancer with fresh vegetable juices, cleansing diets and coffee enemas...working together to detoxify and to rebuild.

In a lecture given in Escondido, CA in 1956, Dr. Gerson stated,“I am convinced that cancer does not need a “specific” treatment. Cancer is a so-called degenerative-disease, and all the degenerative-diseases have to be treated so that the whole body at first is detoxified.”

I added Gerson’s protocols to Kelley’s and felt another part of the puzzle had been found....

Dr. Max Gerson...

Much has been written about Dr. Max Gerson. Gerson began his journey of discovery of natural healing by finding a dietary cure for his own severe migraine headaches. When one of his patients using the “migraine diet” discovered that it had also cured his skin tuberculosis, this led Gerson to further research the diet program and go on to successfully treat many other patients of tuberculosis. Along with the help of Dr. Ferninand Sauerkraut, a famous thoracic surgeon, the “Gerson Treatment” became established as the first published cure for skin tuberculosis.

Dr. Gerson then attracted the friendship of Nobel Prize winner Albert Schweitzer, M.D., by curing Schweitzer’s wife of lung tuberculosis after all conventional treatments had failed. Gerson and Schweitzer remained friends for life. Dr. Schweitzer followed Gerson’s progress as the dietary therapy was successfully applied to heart disease, kidney failure, and finally – cancer. Schweitzer’s own Type II diabetes was cured by treatment with Gerson’s therapy. Thus, upon Gerson’s death in 1959, Dr. Albert Schweitzer said, “He leaves a legacy which commands attention and which will assure him his due place. Those whom he has cured will now attest to the truth of his ideas.”

Basically, The Gerson Therapy is a natural treatment to detoxify and boost your body's own immune system to heal cancer, arthritis, heart disease, allergies, and many other degenerative diseases. By consuming large amounts of organic fruits and vegetables and freshly prepared juices throughout the day, the body is provided with a mega-dose of enzymes, minerals and nutrients that break down diseased tissue and rebuild healthy tissue while coffee enemas detoxify by eliminating the lifelong build-up of toxins from the liver....


But, was there more to completing this methodology of healing the body naturally?

Dr. Bernard Jensen...

Beginning his career as a chiropractor in 1929, Dr. Bernard Jensen soon turned to the art of nutrition in search of remedies for his own health problems (sound familiar?). Dr. Jensen believed that nutrition is the greatest single therapy to be applied in the holistic healing arts and the whole patient, not just the disease must be treated. These are my exact sentiments, as well, since treating the disease or symptoms does not eliminate the cause.

Life style changes are necessary for good health...

Wellness stems from the whole body being in balance supported by a well balanced lifestyle. In all, Jensen worked with over 350,000 patients around the world. He traveled to over 50 countries to study the lifestyles of the different cultures in an effort to understand the principles of long and healthy living. He studied the long-lived people residing in Russia. The oldest man he met in Russia was 152 years old.

Mostly what I gained in knowledge from Dr. Jensen was the concept that disease begins in the bowel where years and years of accumulated toxins and putrefied, hardened waste matter prevent absorption of nutrients and leech poisons into the blood stream that are carried to all parts of the body seeking to do havoc where we are most susceptible. So not only is it important to detoxify the liver with a Coffee Enema - an integral part of what I teach - but so is a special cleansing program that literally “cleans house” and cleanses the colon, organ and gland systems - a means to detoxify the whole body.

Dr. Carey Reams...

One of the last pieces of the healing puzzle came to me when I was introduced to the Biological Theory of Ionization in 1985. I had always suspected that PH (acid/alkaline) balance was a key to health. In my surgical training, we were taught about maintaining electrolyte balance during surgery, but never considered it thereafter. Carey Reams was a pioneer in using urine and saliva testing as indicators for maintaining healthy PH balance.

When cancer cells are grown in the lab, there are 2 things necessary for growth. These 2 things are an acid/sugar medium. This is true in the body as well and many natural health researchers, including myself, believe that acidosis and toxicity causes most all illness. This relates directly to the food we eat. Simply said, all foods are either alkaline or acidic - an over consumption of one or the other throws our body chemistry out of balance. This forces our internal systems to attempt to compensate and make adjustments that most often result in undesirable consequences.

Ponder this fact for a moment: Sugars, meats and dairy are all acid forming foods...now, what might that tell you?

Getting on the Road to Wellness...

So unless one is willing and determined to change their diet, detoxify and cleanse their body, balance their body chemistry, and moderate their lifestyle to maintain health, they will continue to suffer from environmental and lifestyle infliction of disease and illness. Genetically speaking, we each have our own individual susceptibilities to disease but we actually bring illness on ourselves...unless we learn to detoxify.

I have continued my research over the years in working with hundreds of students with diverse problems...all needing to detoxify. In addition to the above methods of Kelley, Gerson, Jenson and Reams, I have discovered over the past 38 years that many other conditions need to be addressed such as candida (yeast), parasites, mercury amalgams, root canals and much more...read other influences on wellness. Nearly everyone needs to detoxify from something or other.

I have also found that additional practices, such as that of dry skin brushing and proper breathing contributes to the overall healing and detoxification process.

With the program that I have developed for my students of NATURAL HEALING RESEARCH ASSOCIATES, I allow for individual adjustments to the same program along with my personal coaching. Overall, the same principles apply and each student has achieved wellness they didn’t have before...before they learned to detoxify.

I continue to learn from others and from my own experiences. There is nothing that I teach that I haven’t done myself and I look forward to living in service and helping others to rely less on "worldly truths" and to seek God's Truth instead. Then they will discover how His creation was designed to be kept in balance and to promote self-healing...
