“While on the cleanse, I checked my blood sugar. During the second week of the cleanse, it started to elevate to 140, so I cut back two ounces of maple syrup and my blood sugar dropped to 70. [He was making up six drinks at a time.] That was too low, so I increased it by one ounce to five ounces and it leveled off at 100. In Week 4 it increased again to 140, so I cut back to four ounces and kept it there till I finished the forty days.
“Today is my second day on solid food and it is my intent to minimize animal products, but this is another lifestyle change and will take some getting used to. My tongue is still white. I now weigh 160 lbs and do not hang over my 32-inch jeans. There are wrinkles leading out in every direction from my belly button and I am cold all the time. One-third of my forty days were good days. The rest were sad, depressed or neutral, but each day was different and I had the strength to face them.
“All in all, it has been an enjoyable fast. I am so thankful for your encouragement and the help of your book. I thought I was alone.”
—Dick Maslowski
A Huge Debt
The original book on the Master Cleanse is The Master Cleanser by Stanley Burroughs. Without Burroughs’ work and that book, mankind would be significantly poorer. His book describes the Master Cleanse along with his views on disease and healing, some natural remedies, and some recipes for healthy food. It can be purchased from the Web Store of my website, www.TheRawFoodSite.com.
Stanley Burroughs first published The Master Cleanser in 1976 and has sold hundreds of thousands of copies without advertising because of results. This new wave of attention will succeed provided it stays true to the original, time-tested Burroughs method. In coaching thousands of people, I have seen many variations, but the method that works best for most people is the original method. So, even if you have good results with a variation a time or two, please remember that the method with the greatest success for the most people is the original and pass along only that one. I owe a debt of gratitude to Stanley Burroughs and I hope when you are done you will too.
I am also in debt to all the wonderful people who participated on our bulletin board. Their encouragement, willingness to share, and insights have been and are wonderful, as you will see.
NOTE: Throughout this book, an exclamation point to the left indicates the section is important.
Confession
I’m just an average Joe. I came upon the Master Cleanse because I was pig-headed enough to keep looking for a natural way to handle my failing health that would not cost me an arm and a leg and would not cause unwanted side effects. I just decided to keep looking until I found that way. Fortunately for me, I succeeded.
I am not a licensed health professional and cannot diagnose or prescribe. However, I knew what it had done for me in 2003 and I began to tell others on the Internet. There I saw the Master Cleanse help more than 100 people regain and maintain their vibrant good health in our first ever group Master Cleanse in January 2004. I also saw that people had the same questions over and over. So, I decided to write this book to answer those questions. Since then I have been fortunate enough to see literally thousands of people benefit from it. In January 2009 alone, we had more than 1,200 people doing the Master Cleanse on our Forum! (You can sign up at www.TheRawFoodSite.com /forum. Or you can also visit the Forum through my Master Cleanse Coach iPhone app by tapping “MC Community” on the first or second page.)
From reading some of the great healers of the past, I believe people can extend their lives and avoid illness and disease if they eat mostly real, live food (raw fruits and vegetables, seeds and nuts), drink unpolluted and unfluoridated water, and clean their colons frequently.
I firmly believe that each person is responsible for his or her own health. If you want to be healthy, have energy and feel good, you must learn what is involved and apply it. You have to monitor what goes into your mouth, what exercise you do, what air you breathe, and most important of all, what thoughts you think. And you need to detoxify regularly.
The good news is that valuable knowledge is available if you take the time to look for it and are willing to determine if The Master Cleanse is true for you and your body. The reason you have to determine it for yourself is that each person’s body is potentially different. For example, most people find penicillin valuable for killing bacteria. Some people are allergic and can die from it.
You are the only person who can make the determination of what is useful or not for you. Health professionals can give you valuable information and do other wonderful things, but ultimately, the buck stops with you. So you have to learn to use good judgment along with your experience, and that includes determining if the information in this book is useful to you.
Therefore, the information in this application is solely for educational purposes. It is not intended as medical advice or to diagnose, treat, cure or prescribe. If you decide to follow it, it must be because you have determined that it would be good for you to try it.
Each person should seek the counsel of their health professional, and then use his or her own judgment. This caution applies to the information in this book and that posted on the website— www.TheRawFoodSite.com. In fact, this caution applies to any information in life.
If you are in ill health, have any disease or are taking any medications and want to do the Master Cleanse, consult your licensed healthcare professional first. Most especially, do not discontinue any medications without guidance from a licensed healthcare professional.
I think the Master Cleanse is great. You have to decide for yourself. I am only telling my story and some of the many stories on the www.TheRawFoodSite.com bulletin board. If you have made the decision to do the Master Cleanse, congratulations for doing something really wonderful for yourself and your body!
Best wishes for your vibrant good health,
Peter Glickman
Foreword
Health care reform is a gargantuan issue facing not just the U.S. but also the entire world. I, too, believe that our system is broken and in need of change. However, I think Washington is barking up the wrong tree. They are busy arguing about coverage and access for the current “sick care” system when what the country truly needs is “health care” reform: reform that shifts the focus from a symptom-suppression model of sick care to one of prevention, wellness and the elimination of unnecessary drugs.
Ironically, Washington appears to mirror the problems that exist in Western Medicine. Sick care treats symptoms instead of dealing with the root causes of disease. Western medicine is not the medicine of the future because it does not address why we are unhealthy and how to change. If we do not change why we are unhealthy, we will continue to be unhealthy and we will remain economically distressed. To provide better health care, to become a healthier nation, we have to make serious changes. We will only flourish when we address the root causes of the problems.
For 2,200 years until 1805, medicine was practiced exclusively according to the ancient Greek physician Hippocrates (460-377 BC), the founding father of natural medicine. He taught that the СКАЧАТЬ
