1 Basic Body Cleanses - Specific Information The importance of distilled water: Steam distilled water is the best to use when detoxifying your body or working on a serious health challenge. This is so because it is free of inorganic minerals including salt and nitrates. The distilled water acts as a solvent in the body by dissolving nutrients so they can be assimilated and taken into every cell. Distilled water also dissolves inorganic mineral substances that are lodged in body tissues so they can be eliminated from the body. Contrary to what some people may say, distilled water does not leach out body minerals. It does collect and remove minerals that have been rejected by the cells. This is debris that is obstructing normal functioning of the system. This is ideal liquid for the efficient functioning of the kidneys, lungs, stomach, liver and other vital organs. Steam distilled water is universally accepted as the standard for biomedical applications and for drinking water purity. If you are consuming a well-balanced nutrient dense diet, this is the best type of water to consume. Extended water only fasts should not use steam distilled water as this type of detoxification and water consumption would be harmful to one's health. Using steam distilled water to make herbal teas will provide 30-35% of the medicinal value of an herb versus 5-7% of the medicinal value extracted when using tap water. During the detoxification program, water helps your liver and kidneys flush out waste, chemicals, and toxins. The liver converts stored fat into energy but the liver can't do its job if the kidneys are not getting enough water to do their job. As for weight loss your metabolism slows down by 3% when the body is not getting enough water. Water also helps to suppress the appetite and can even act like a water pill - the more you drink the more your fat cells flush. Herbs used in cleansing: When dealing with long-standing health problems, one should not expect to thoroughly cleanse or cure the body with one or so three-day cleansing routines. An extended herbal cleanse is necessary in order to rid the body of chronic conditions or to prevent their occurrence. These cleanses should be used in conjunction with the mucusless diet. The body systems that need cleansing and toning in this order are the bowels, the urinary tract, the liver, and the blood. Begin cleansing the intestines, the urinary tract, and the liver for one week. Add the blood cleanse the second week as outlined below,

2 The intestines: Dr. Christopher's Fen LB Formula (lower bowel formula) is great for cleaning and toning the intestines. Begin with two capsules three times a day, and then regulate the dosage from there in order to obtain the right amount of bowel movements and consistency needed. If the stool seems too loose then cut down the amount. If it is difficult to get a bowel movement and the stool is hard and difficult to pass, then increase the amount of capsules until the movements become soft and well-formed. Every body system is different because of age, size and physical construction. Thereby, individual regulation is necessary. Specifically, upon arising in the morning, take one or two (more if needed) capsules of the lower bowel formula. This would then be repeated one hour before lunch, and prior to retiring for the night. In most cases, an improper diet has caused the peristaltic muscles of most people to quit working. It may take six to nine months with the aid of the lower bowel formula for the average individual to clean out the fecal matter and to rebuild the bowel structure sufficiently to have the peristaltic muscles work entirely on their own. Hard fecal matter will break loose and be eliminated from the bowel. Some of these hard incrustations have been stored in the bowel for many years, soaking up intestinal liquids. Gradually decrease the amount of the capsules consumed so that advantageous momentum and continuity of elimination continues without tapering off the lower bowel formula. Most people have pounds of old dried fecal matter stored in the colon. This is toxifying to the body system and hinders food from being assimilated. Most people engorge themselves with many times more food than the actual body requirements because they always feel hungry. They are simply trying to get the sufficient nutrition the body requires but is not able to assimilate. Dr. Christopher's LB (lower bowel) Formula consists of the following herbs: barberry bark, cascara sagrada bark, cayenne, ginger, lobelia herb, red raspberry leaves, turkey rhubarb root, fennel, golden seal root. These herbs are food and will do no damage to the body. The urinary tract: Take two of Dr. Christopher's KB (kidney-bladder) Formula capsules mid-morning and also midafternoon. Approximately 80% of the body is liquid. A great deal of this liquid needs to be pumped, filtered, etc. through the urinary system of the individual. This delicate tract needs to be given good care. Avoid irritating and clogging-type materials such as tea, coffee, soft drinks, hard water, alcohol, etc. Dr. Christopher's KB (kidney bladder) Formula consists ofthe following herbs: juniper berries, parsley, uva ursi, marshmallow root, lobelia, ginger, golden seal.

3 The liver: Twenty minutes before eating a meal, one should take two ofthe Dr. Christopher's livergall bladder formula. Repeat prior to each meal. If the liver does not function properly, the bile does not excrete freely into the intestinal tract. Consequently, it passes off into the blood stream and throughout the rest of the system, causing a toxic condition called cholemia. This produces indigestion, sluggishness, fatigue, constipation, upset stomach, chills, vomiting and fever. It is imperative to have a clean liver and gall bladder in order to speed up the blood purifying process. This formula has been used to help relieve this condition. Dr. Christopher's LG (liver gall bladder) Formula consists ofthe following herbs: barberry, wild yam, cramp bark, fennel seed, ginger, catnip, peppermint. The blood: Take two of Dr. Christopher's RCC (red clover combination) Formula capsules three times daily until the blood is flowing as it should to produce more pep and energy. It is important to clean the body at the cellular level in order to have a good circulatory system for delivering food to the body and to carry off the waste materials properly. This herbal rebuilder is made of herbs that are cleansers, herbs that give astringency, others that aid in removing cholesterol, kill infection, and build elasticity in the veins and strengthen the vein and artery walls. Dr. Christopher's RCC (red clover combination) Formula consists ofthe following herbs: red clover, chaparral, licorice root, poke root, peach bark, Oregon grape root, stillingia, cascara sagrada, sarsaparilla, prickly ash bark, burdock root, buckthorn bark. This routine should be followed six days, resting on the seventh. Resume taking the herbs on the second week, adding two capsules of the blood purifying formula one hour after each meal. Do this for six days, resting on the seventh day. This procedure should then continue every week for six weeks, after which one should rest for one week. Repeat these intervals for six months and then rest for one entire month. At the end of this seven month program, one should assess the progress and determine if another seven month program would be beneficial. One week delay in adding the blood purifying formula is absolutely essential because of the extreme effectiveness of the formula. This is opening the eliminative channels of the body, allowing a pathway of elimination for the ensuing toxins to be eliminated by the blood cleansing formula. Relationship of cleansing and elimination: This cleansing program purifies the body so it can heal more easily. It will help one to obtain their optimal weight. The entire purpose of the program is to eliminate mucus from the body, which will simplify healing. This cleansing program is an essential part of healing virtually any infirmity. It will clean the mucus out of the

4 body.

5 Mucus is the source of polyps, tumors, cysts, etc. and also the cause of allergies, disease, pain, and death. This program will provide foods that are alive, nutritious and healthful. These foods can rebuild the body. Importance of elimination: Cleanliness of the body is the first step towards a healthy system. Any toxins within us will retard our progress towards recovery. The natural eliminative channels are the lungs, the pores of the skin, the kidneys, and the bowels. When one perspires, the sweat glands throw off toxins which would be toxic to us if retained. The kidneys excrete the end products of food and body metabolism from the liver. The bowels eliminate not only the food waste but also matter known as body waste, in the form of used-up cells and tissues, the result of our physical and mental activities. If these waste products are retained, protein putrefaction, toxemia or acidosis can result. Retaining such body waste is much more damaging to our health than is generally suspected. When we begin to cleanse it, we experience perceptible progress. Relationship of elimination and cleansing crisis: It is common for one to experience periodic aches and pains in the areas where the cleaning action is most acute and the wastage is loading the elimination system. There may be times when a person feels very rough during and after cleansing. The cleaning action may produce all symptoms and effects of severe illness. This means that the healing process is well underway. The discomforts are a result of toxins and poisons are being eliminated. Do not think that a lifetime of toxic accumulation can be miraculously flushed out in a quick cleanse. This will take time working with the body's normal cyclic functions. People have experienced high and low days, usually in cycles. These "cleansing sicknesses" come in cycles of seven days, seven weeks, seven months, and seven years in most cases. As the toxic poisons break loose and are dumped into the bloodstream so they can be eliminated, you may feel very rough. Quite frequently during a crisis, a person may feel worse that he did before ever starting the program. Do not panic! The bad days will become fewer and the good days will be greater, if one is faithful with the program. Wholesome versus part-some foods: Vegetation is the source of nourishment for all animal life. Some of the birds, animalsand men-live on the carcasses of other higher animal life, but these carcasses received their health and vitality form vegetation. This is second-hand or secondary food has lost a lot of its value, but its nutrient value can be traced back to the original or primary food source, vegetation. The bird that eats the insect gets its real food value from the tree, plant or shrub that the insect has fed on, and not the insect itself. Wholesome food is that primary food that has all its parts and the life therein. Part-some food is food that

6 is not in its whole state. In other words, it is food that has been processed or changed in some way other than in its natural state the way it can be found growing. Whole some food can also be described as: whole, un-adulterated, not enhanced, not radically modified, and life giving. Health food is not genetically engineered, fortified, pasteurized, isolated, or made in a lab. A litmus test for wholesome food is: "If this food is planted in a garden, will it grow?" If it will not grow, then it is part-some food and has been depleted of its nutritional and beneficial value. Organic versus inorganic: Dr. Christopher defined inorganic materials as those that occur in nature but that are not able to be assimilated by the human body. These may be accepted by the body, such as rock calcium, but they are not useful or assimilated. On the contrast, he defined organic as those minerals that are able to be accepted and assimilated by the human body. Such as plant calcium. Inorganic materials build up in the human body and cannot be processed by the body, thereby causing disease. An example of this is calcium build up in the arteries or joints of the body creating atherosclerosis or arthritis. Another example of this is the iron found in cast iron cook ware. Foods cooked in cast iron pans have traces of this iron in them. Some people think this is of value to the human body. It is not. This iron is accepted into the body system, but the system cannot process or assimilate it. This inorganic (non-living) iron becomes a toxin to the body. Organic iron, found in many green plants, is easily accepted and assimilated by the human body. This is the type of iron that one needs for healthy living. Consequently, a healthminded person will want to eat plants that have these organic vitamins and minerals available to the consumer. Essentially, organic compounds are derived from living organisms and have a carbon molecule. Do's and don'ts of the mucusless diet: This focuses on eating foods that do not put mucus into the body faster than it can be eliminated. This mucusless diet removes constipating mucus (catarrh) from the tissues of the body. Use this guide as an ideal diet. Don't let yourself become filled with guilt as you make this transition, but do the very best you can as you work to rebuild your health. Items to eliminate: Processed salt; Eggs; Sugar and all sugar products; Meat; Dairy products; Flour and flour products Items to consume: Fruit; Vegetables; Whole grains; Raw nuts; Raw seeds
