The Miracle of Fasting

"Fasting Conserves Your Vital Force"
Let me explain. We eat food and, as it passes through the body, it must be masticated, digested, assimilated and then the waste is eliminated. We have four great organs of elimination: the bowels, the kidneys, the lungs, and the skin. In order for these eliminative organs to work perfectly, the body must build a high "Vital Force" or energy quota.

It Takes Energy To Eliminate Body Wastes. It takes a tremendous amount of "Vital Energy" to pass a large meal through the gastrointestinal tract, the thirty foot tube that runs from the mouth to the rectum. It takes the great power of "Vital Energy" to pass liquids through the 2 million filters of the human kidneys. It takes "Vital Power" for the chemical power of the liver and the gall bladder to do their work in preparing food for the billions of body cells to feed upon. It takes great "Vital Power" for the lungs to bring in oxygen to purify the whole 5 to 8 quarts of blood in your body, and expel carbon dioxide. It takes great "Vital Power" for the skin, with its 96 million pores, to throw off body poisons in the form of moisture and sweat.

It is the duty of the "Vital Power" to supply the energy to rid the body of the poisons that are created in our intake of food. The "Vital Power" must keep the body temperature at 98. 6 degrees at all times. If it goes higher, we become sick. If we fall below this figure, we become sick. In our modern civilization, the "Vital Power" has many other poisons to cope with; the filth and dirt that man creates.

Fasting Aids in Flushing Deadly Poisons from the Body:
When we fast - stop eating - all the "Vital Power" that has been used to convert food into energy and body tissue, is now used to flush poisons from the body.

When I go on a 10 day complete water fast, I take a specimen of my urine each day the first thing upon arising, I put the urine in a small bottle and let it cool and settle. In a few days I can see little crystals forming in the urine. I have had my urine examined for chemicals, and the examiner has told me time and time again that traces of DDT, and other deadly pesticide residues, appeared in my urine. On one occasion I took a 21 day complete fast. On the 19th day, I had terrible pains in my bladder. When I urinated it felt like red hot water passing through me. I had the urine examined and sure enough it was filled with DDT and other pesticide poisons.
A great feeling of energy flowed over my body when this poison passed out of it. The whites of my eyes were as clear as new snow. My body took on a pink glow and energy surged through my body. Now, remember I had been fasting for 19 days. Yet, I drove over to Pasadena, California, to Mt. Wilson, which is six thousand feet high, and climbed the trail with absolutely no exertion. I ran most of the way down the winding trail. I felt that a tremendous burden had been lifted from my body.

In my personal opinion, fasting is the only way to rid the body of commercial poisons found in our fruits and vegetables.

HOW TO STAY YOUNG FOREVER

Step1
DONT SMOKE
smoking increases free radicals, which lead to CELL DEATH , it wrecks your lungs so you can't exercise and it affects your social life.

Step2
EAT YOUR ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS
The American Heart Association recommends you eat FISH twice a week to get enough omega-3, omega-6 and DHA into the body. It helps cells be flexible and permeable and has been shown to be an important part of the cells of the nervous system, blood vessels and skin. That means they help with the wrinkles and the brains, isn't that perfect? Oily fish is the best, but not because it's deep fried with chips.

Step3
MAINTAIN A HEALTHY WEIGHT
Overweight is hard on the joints and it's hard on the heart that has to work overtime to carry the extra weight. Not only that, but FAT can sit in nasty places like artery walls where it stops blood from getting where it needs to go. Heart attacks are not very youthful. Underweight isn't much better. Bones and muscles get robbed of building material to give the rest of the body energy. It wrecks your kidneys and can lead to early menopause and osteoporosis.

Step4
TAKE COLOURFUL VEGETABLES
Include lots of colorful vegetables in your diet, especially orange and yellow ones, which are a high source of BETA-CAROTENE . Beta-carotene is an antioxidant which means it can fight free radicals in the body. It helps the body's cells stay on a normal healthy path rather than wander off and die or become cancerous. Beta carotene also is converted into vitamin A, which helps keep your skin young and your eyes working.

Step5
WORK YOUR HEART
Cardiovascular exercise, also known as AEROBIC EXERCISE is a workout that makes your heart muscle pump a little harder for a period of time. By keeping the heart muscle in shape, it is less likely to deteriorate. By keeping the heart muscle strong and pumping, blood pressure is lowered and blood flows to more places in the body. Blood flow to the skin, the brain and the digestive system, are healthy, youthful body attributes.

Step6
STAY STRONG
Do WEIGHT TRAINING at least twice a week. Strong muscles lead to strong bones, which don't break as easily. Broken hips make you feel old. Strong muscles give you independence to do simple things like open jars and chop wood.

Step7
BALANCE
Balance deteriorates with age, but it can be trained and maintained. Practicing balance by doing YOGA or DANCING or EVEN STANDING ON ONE FEET in the kitchen is great neuromuscular exercise. In other words it keeps the body and brain in touch. If you have balance you reduce your chances of falling and testing your bones for strengtH.

Step8
THINK
Use your brain to LEARN , do crossword puzzles, math problems or simply read stimulating material. If you don't use it, you lose it. Research has consistently shown that older adults who are regularly stimulating their brains are less prone to mental deterioration.

Step9
THINK YOUNG
Laugh, dance, visit, and explore new things. ATTITUDE is everything
