HOW TO BE A HOLISTIC HEALER

MAKING A MILLION A YEAR AS A HEALER IS EASY!

If you're  interested in making a million dollars a year, as an un -licensed, self-trained holistic healer, and ARE prepared to bank under the rose garden,(lUCKILY THEY LET YOU PAY downs ON 3BDRM homes WITH "mattress money" (HEAD OF PNC (later the FANNIE MAE) TOLD ME SO)   start now at the LIBRARY and READ BOOKS on the subject.. Keep notes. Read every book on the 612 and 613 shelf. Copy your notes/ info findings and research into PC files with basic organization by DIRECTORIES: so you’d have HERBS. PREVENTION. SYMPTOMS and Case Studies for your people. That might be the start up kit for directories. DENTAL might be its own directory. THE WEB TIPS FOR NEWBIES PAGE TEACHES ALL OF THIS basic STUFF.

  Learned every holistic protocol for every malady? No peanut butter for arthritis or GOUT, Garlic for fevers.. THEN you Go to the HEALTHFOOD store as they have thousands of great, new books. Expensive, but Probably you could take it home, scan it, return it next day and buy groceries with the money. Or memorize, or make notes, or use a purse-scanner. OCR. When you have fine, rare books available from WHOLE FOODS, use OCR software if you can. Optical Character Recognition software. Most scanners have some in their software, ask around and get one with 99% character recognition. Saves typing. But if not, be brief and get the info into a file that you can share or print out at whim. 

You really CAN genuinely self-instruct, read your way into this career, no schooling is necessary, no degree although there are plenty of mail-order colleges that are genuine and quite reputable in the holism field. The Herbal wholesale dealer, best one I ever heard of was in Spanish Fork, Utah, name of NATURE’S SUNSHINE. They are online. They have free books when you buy your wholesale herbs from them.

My healer, (who healed me when UCLA clinic and Sherwood Trimble Clinic could NOT ), Marge, never finished high school. She never found anything in the 'real world' that interested her, didn't have the money for Med School. She read holistic books while she raised her children. The kids married, she turned her garage into a shiny, fresh painted white office. For ten years she worked out of her home. She had a client every half hour, all day and couldn’t see new people. I had to fight to get in that first time. ONE MONTH solid she was booked. Today her office is in a medical building and she diagnoses with more efficiency than any doctor in that bldg, seeing 16 clients a day, a new client every 30 minutes, they wait outside her office, I’ve been there and seen it when it was in her home. I’ve tried to get an appt. and had to wait a week as she’s always booked solid…and she does the diagnosing by reading eyes, from a magnified view of the iris (using the Dr. Bernard Jensen method,) which came from doctors in Germany) and also taking NOTE of the red veins in sclera (Wheelwright method,) veins which (when one is ill,) point to the part of the iris related to that toxic body area, the "SICK PLACE." SO MARGE THE HEALER is GOD's GIFT to Southern California. SHE HEALS the hard to cure stuff. Which two clinics MISSED in my case.)

When you're with her, as an iris-reading client, she diagnoses the body weakness and Rx's herbs and just with those two things, makes $800 thousand a year back in the 70's when I met her. Out of that sum, she only had to pay UTAH HERB dealer their wholesale prices for encapsulated herbs, -- the famous Utah company, Nature's Sunshine. And there’s no cost for starting the study phase of being an herbalist. Not like Herbalife which charges you $4,000 to START!

You may think this healing career sounds complex but healing is an easy field to master --no formal schooling necessary, no license, just reading up on herbs, (corn silk and dandelions to heal kidneys, etc. that kind of thing.) And next, learning to recognize illness by looking into the sick person's eye (use a magnifier and pen- light to look at spots on the iris; then check Dr. Jensen's textbook. IRIDOLOGY FOR BEGINNERS is $4 at healthfood stores everywhere.)

Collect info on diet too, easily accomplished at the healthfood store book rack. Those are the best books, much better than the library. I'd buy book, USE OCR scanner, return it next day, buy ANOTHER book. Keep that going as long as possible. OR, read as fast as you type, and type the info onto your hard disc. Give a print out of this info to people who consult you.

Another possibility is to go to the local healthfood store or metaphysical book store, write down the titles and publishers of these holistic books, then, order thru library. Libraries have to find you the title, or buy it for their stacks if you say it's a fabulous book.

GET a FREE CATALOGUE from BODHI TREE BOOKS Melrose AVE, West Hollywood 90069. And visit BODHI TREE USED. Dollar books. I find my local Salvation Army has books from the 30's to 70's that are worthwhile, even on this New Age subject!

As I mentioned at the regular library, read the 612/613 shelf. And look in card catalogue to find section on HERBS which is a different catalogue number.Get all the used books on different kinds of massage.

HOLISTIC Healers CURE more people, make more $ than regular doctors, don’t have all that insurance to pay in case they kill someone. Plus you make people feel very peppy fast. Faster than any Doc ever. It would take you 1 month reading books to be good. A year to be Great. A decade to be a master. BUT, you can start practicing, healing pals & relatives immediately. Working with people teaches you faster, & WHILE YOU LEARN you can help people.

A healer gets famous quickly --clients multiply exponentially as they tell pals- "I'm cured. I FEEL 18 years old again." 1 Client brings 2 brings 4.

My healer gave me a wonderful XEROX form she had saying "BEFORE BREAKFAST take __x____ WITH BREAKFAST --x--She filled in herbs I must take before and with 3 meals, and at bedtime. Mind you, she only spent 30 minutes with me. She does l6 people a day. My meeting was 35$ (she's 45$ now,) and the herbs she said I needed were about $200. If she makes $235 every half hour, she's doing 800k a year. Check it on your hand calculator right now!

But the important thing is, that when she diagnosed me, I became well immediately. I'd been to a string of the best doctors and clinics, among them UCLA clinics which couldn't diagnose me much less cure me. SHE DID BOTH in a few minutes! I have SWORN by holistic healers and done what I can to get people who have healing talents INTO this profession ever since!

Your healthfood store has a bookrack; at very least, read for a half hour every time you go to shop. Take notes, stash in computer/ or notebook.

Now, if you're read this far, it means you are actually considering the birth of a new heal/ diagnose and RX  herbs type career. Let me say this about THAT. If you are seeking clients, you do not advertise in magazines. No. Selling herbs, your diagnosing services efficiently means you must meet 20 new people a day, as maybe half that number will consult you and end up buying herbs.

THAT pushing to meet as MANY NEW PEOPLE as you can, each day, will give you some very sizeable earnings, more money than you could ever earn in any other career. READ THE CELERY FILE on “How to Talk to Strangers over the Produce at Whole Foods”. Be shameless in hustling your work as remember, you are or will be changing lives for the better. DRAMATICALLY. Helping thousands of people a year to pursue their dreams in a strong body.

While you are SUPER graced at 'going out' and meeting people in the street, at bus stops, on subways, at fun clubs, at group meetings, lectures, bookstores, I doubt that you have the TUFFNESS it takes to FORCE yourself to daily go to these places and start conversations with strangers and WHEEL the conversation into 'I heal. I diagnose I can sell an energy pill that is beyond anything. Forget Starbucks, I can make you rejuvenate."

But, if you want to meet 20 and sell ten a day, in addition to saying this sentence and meaning it, you will have to:

1.) Visit many bookstores a week and chat. People are really browsing so it's hard to strike up conversations unless you're l8, a girl and are showing legs. 

2.) Ergo, you'll have to visit healthfood stores, daily, where people do chat over cheese, grapes. 'Oh, is that cheese good?' The 'Best Bet' of all is healthfood stores or even grocery stores as here people are asking one another, 'oh do you use that cheese? Is it full fat? Or use that juice, or do you know how long juice sits here before they sell it?'Then always say "I come to comparison shop the herbs as I diagnose, sell the nature's Sunshine Line, or Herbalife line, and I understand that the better mixture is the SUNSHINE and it's actually cheaper. For instance, this bottle of brain formula? Sunshine has it for 6$ here it's 14$. Only it's only sold by distribs like me, not in stores, plus I read the iris of eye and can see what's going on in the body and what you particularly NEED. 

3.) CLUBS- Not night clubs. Unless you feel up to kissing a hundred frogs to find one prince of an herb buyer. You don't have time or tummy space to wade thru a hundred coca-colas in order to do THAT. Now, true, nite clubs are good for meeting kids, yuppies and fun opp sex members so if you're taking too much of your own herbs, be my guest. But the best club is a social club, Ladies club. Garden club. Seniors clubs. Lecturers are always needed by clubs and you are an interesting lecture the sec you do this kinda work..

4.) Twelve step programs. EXCELLENT another lucky hit. Everyone there wants to heal their emotional scars also the body and everyone TALKS to one another at coffee cup time. Problem is you are not addicted to anything so how do you attend? They'll clock you for a phony addict who's fishing for clients. So better develop a habit you wanna quit. Smoking? Over Eating then go to  OA? 5.) CHURCH. Everyone with ENERGY FLEES outta there to go eat afterwards, NOBODY talks. The ones with NO ENERGY do stay behind and talk to one another......they might go for herbs.

5.) TWITTER. Learn how to use it. Find similars for your own CITY. As national and international doesn’t really do you any good unless you want to send people healing info for free online, which isn’t a bad idea.

Other thoughts. Your local Healthfood store has free, giveaway newspapers & on bulletin board there, each article in them rich with info. Lots about lectures coming up. Go! Stash the healing info in files on your PC. I have many of these files already, built over years of research. Free to you. At THE HEALING ARCHIVE. Or go to GARY NULL.com . Find local health seminars, lectures, & meet holistic healers seeking masterful diagnosing on your body condition yourself, or take elderly relatives who already HAVE some mild body slowing down, pain, or disfunction, (known or not), organs beginning to fail--- dragging them in for iridology (eye) readings, dietary Rx, herbs & massage. That way you can see holistics in action, AND cure a relative and be inspired.

These healers diagnose from eye's IRIS, (get Dr. Jensen's 4$ book full of color plates) RX HERBS to cure body conditions and POWER FOODS or supplements, diet changes (raw foods, vegetarianism, low-fat, etc. Amazing thing is that when we REMOVE toxins we load into our bodies in the name of gourmet food, body has ability to heal itself.

Nature Healers only charge 35$ for 1/2 hour so people come like crazy to you. They are saving a hundred bucks a visit over doctors. You also sell RETAIL the herbs you bought wholesale but at the same price as healthfood store or LOWER so that you don't cheat people. I had to buy 200$ worth of herbs to cure myself. Most people do. That's how the healer makes 250$ per half hour. 500$ an Hour. $4,000 a day, $20k a week. Marjorie is booked solid for the next 2 months and one has to wait for cancellation to get in. That means she sees l6 people a day five days a week! Actually my new calculator says this work load earns her over a million a year. Again, part goes to the herb company that she uses, Nature's Sunshine.

HOLISTICS are big in L.A. and NYC but in the 21st century, gifted natural healers like U-will go into health biz in every city of the USA, all over the planet. Be the first one in your area. Call me if there are other questions. I have DISCS FULL Of abstracts on every malady, its herbal cure, and the type of written forms you give to your clients to help diagnose them. Free to you if you go into this. I know other medical researchers who'll give you discs of latest research free.

On computer, you also keep records of clients' history. But never let yourself be taped by a client. Always ask the new clients, who recommended you? And have them fill in the blanks on their forms. And never use the word 'heal.' Say we're going to TONE. Never diagnose saying we see cancer, cirhossis. Say "we see an obstacle, a blockage, and we need to TONE this area." That way the AMA can't touch you, you're totally l00% legal.

NOW FOR EXCELLENT READING OF THE MOST EVOLVED LEVEL, do a search for Townsend Letter for Physicians, THE Webzine of the holistic movement. Go to http://www.altavista.digital.com to do search.

Homeopathy may be the medicine of the future, so here are a number of links on alternative cancer therapists..... They usually get chased out of the country like the late Dr. Max Gerson. I have personally seen holistic doctors heal things that are really hard. My 6 mos old son hadparasites… amoebas. Can be deadly. His vegie doctor in Mexico City cured him with JUST a homeopathic remedy!  I had to give is three times a day as I recall, it's now 30 yrs past...but I feel that holism is amazing.

LOOK up Bastyr Univ. on a good search engine. This and other formally trained naturopathic physicians usually take a dim view of people who train themselves or learn fromcorrespondence courses.BUT… for very little MONEY, you can Study w. HerbalHealer Academy http://www. drherbs.com

Another much more expensive school is http://www.westbrooku.edu is another one.

http://www.trinityschool.org and CLAYTON is http://www.clayton.edu . As far as I know at this point, all of these schools are accredited with the American Naturopathic Medical Association, http://www.anmaamerica.com and I suggest that you go there and read what they have to say. That in itself would make an interesting article. So keep notes on your clients and start writing!

LAST OF ALL, consider doing holistic massage so you have the money to buy these computers, OCR/ Scanners, books and courses. Massage techs can make anywhere from 50-100$ an hour and when they get a large client base, up to 500$ a day. My fav massagists don't use tables, just a sheet on floor. Ask me for file on combining massage with anti-depression, emotional release 'talk' techniques, called PRIMAL SCREAM Massage or TANTRUM YOGA. File is complete self explanatory, you could start immediately earning $150 an hour in a big city where this would be innovational and garner you a huge clientele fast. And if you're a saint, go to OLD AGE HOMES and practice on geriatrics for 5$ each. Do ten before lunch, eat with the geezers and do ten after! Except the food in OLD AGE HOMES makes me feel l00 years old the second I EAT IT! So hang with the COOK there! Go in the kitchen, corner and EDIFY HER.

What I'm saying is, you can start right now by practicing diagnosing, herbs, healing, Rxing diets or massage right now, on your Dad, mother/aunt, grannie - -work up to friends, students at school. My l8 yr old friend Liz massaged students at college, made enough money to fly to India on semester break! Students require beaucoup body work as they get tense and tired. OLD people at old age homes are great clients. So start now, even while you're still studying the field. Invest l0$, get a biz card that says "HOLISTIC MASSAGE 50$" Pick up clients shopping at super market, in check out line. "Oh, how nice you're buying celery, it helps take plaque out of arteries." They ask 'how do you know?' You explain that you're a nature healer and pull out your card. Contacts then are easy to do whenever you want. You control the ingress of clients. Just shop n'talk, build a clientele.  Up to it? If so, surf those URLS and get back to me which are dead, so I can edit this piece.

I stumbled on holistic healing in the mid-80's, when I became very ill with 24 hour burping, then kidneys near failing a mystery malady. Know what happened, no doctor could figure it and a new age holistic healer, working out of her garage office, properly diagnosed and healed me. No allopathic M.D. (and I went to a dozen) could even diagnose it much less cure it.This naturopath, working out of her home's garage, changed my life. Not only did she HEAL me instantly, but she started me becoming interested in diet, herbs and she created a rejuvenation and return to health which I have been able to sustain for the last 20 years since on a normal, American diet.

I feel my story is worth sharing, with the thought that holistic healing is the grandest profession that exists, and one you don't require a college education or license to get into so it's one you might go into with no school tuition, just some serious, devoted reading.

When I became ill, I was a 45 year old typist and single mother of four who worked at home in two jobs, astrology, typing horoscopes and sidelining in the high-pressure film script-secretarial field with a demanding screenwriter as a boss and lots of deadlines that often meant typing all night and going to a xerox at dawn.

One particularly high pressure spring, to cope with the stress, I gradually began to repeat the dose of black coffee from the morning once again during the day, found myself unable to fall asleep so I'd use aspirins at night to chill out.

After a few weeks on this regimen, I began to be plagued with continual stomach gas (burping) not only post meals, but during the middle of the night. This burping didn't respond to antacids. I burped around the clock, even waking from sleep to let air out of my throat. At the end of several months of 'indigestion' I began to have strange symptoms; I'd wake with bad facial edema, very unsightly eye-puff. I noted lower back pain over the kidney area along with body/hand edema. I tried aloe vera gel on bags under my eyes, then hemhorroid gel, but no topical ointment was able to tackle the huge amount of puff around my eyes. Bulk that had never been there before.

My face was 'fat' in the mornings. My eyes were eskimo slits, half their usual size. The slide into kidney failure with sensations of massive illness took just a few more weeks after that. I didn't connect the eye being puffy with the burping. Nor did I connect kidney failure with edema and indigestion. I began to urinate much less than was usual for me and have some pain in the lower back area, and a little arthritis or gout crystals in my fingers. But I certainly didn't connect the eye problem with the urination problem and I didn't connect ANY of it with any concept of a kidney problem, not the lower back pain, not the gouty hands. And none of it did I connect with the loudest symptom of all, this 24 hour burping (an indicator of poor digestion) --- although the indigestion and burping both were still present. What mind is trained to connect these symptoms? NOT MINE.

But then, when urination became very scanty, I began to feel nauseated, lousy and sluggish, and suddenly became unable to type or sit up. When one's income is cut by sickness, one does something. I consulted a healthfood guru, a vegetarian friend of mine, a man who'd been on carrot juice, raw salad sunflower seeds and rice crisps for 40 of his 60 years. The MASTER JULES had a 29 inch waist and had, we knew, ONE cure for everything: fasting. UGH, I shuddered. Girls would try anything to avoid going without FOOD. And sure enough, he said 'go on a fast,' and that was it. NO WAY I was going to go without food, so I forget about 'fixing' it. I'd just stay away from fried foods and cheese, the obvious hard-to-digest foods.

It didn't help. One day my body seized. There was no ability to urinate, my lower back hurt like Hell, I felt feverish, nauseated, had massive depression and weeping fits, felt I was dying and couldn't get out of bed.

I called the vegie-guru. As expected, my Radish Tofu Guru told me, "instantly go onto a lemon water fast to take the pressure off kidneys and create good elimination." I lumbered into the kitchen, squeezed some lemons and drank their juice in slightly honeyed water, went without food that day and made an appointment at a major hospital clinic, (UCLA as a matter of fact) and lay in bed drinking this lemonade until a week later, the first date they would see me. While I lay in bed, my vegie pal called from time to time. I remember weeping as the clean-up, withdrawal and all, caused emotional agony. This scared him.

He told me to phone Marjorie, a holistic healer, who lived in EL MONTE, a long drive away, in a faraway burrough of L.A. and who cost 35$ for a half hour visit but this dear pal was scared and he said that he'd pay for the visit. He told me "she's this GENIUS nature doctor who will totally solve your problem." His conviction got to me.

I called the holistic healer woman, who was booked solid for 2 months. 16 clients in her 8 hour day. I pleaded, said it was an emergency and got an appointment for 5 days later. Meanwhile while I waited, I religiously avoided food, and drank lemon and water, morning and night, which made kidneys work like a charm, (but whose wouldn't have, on LEMONS?) And there was no burping as there was no food in me.

In the meantime, I also made an appointment at a private clinic in CULVER CITY, for several days later, and also, that appointment at UCLA came due so I went in.

This university clinic is ten thousand rooms full of doctors. All of them specialists. Mind you, I had been on the lemon and water fast for about 5 days, and actually felt better than I had in months but was faint with hunger.

I told the UCLA doctors that I had indigestion and kidney problems. The doctors there ran extensive tests and told me that my kidney nephrons tested out fine. "Sure they do. I've been on lemon and water for 5 days, but they aren't so fine when I EAT. So how can they be fine? If I eat I burp full time and I have edema. I wake with my eyes puffed closed. I think my stomach isn't digesting and I have no stomach acid.

The doctor laughed. "The only people who have no stomach acid are advanced stomach cancer patients. Do you think you have stomach cancer?" the doctor demanded.

"No," I said sheepishly.

"Anyway, your burping isn't connected to facial puff, edema or kidneys in any way. To stop burping, just take TUMS. That should stop it. The rest is your imagination. Now I want you to resume eating and take Tums.

*Note this is the worst worst remedy for a no stomach acid at all lady. TUMS, an acid suppresor. Showing just how dumb medicos can be!

I went right out and bought a steak and a pack of Tums. A few hot, corn tortillas, some refried beans and a coca-cola made it the best meal I'd ever had in my life. Of course the burping was immediate. I ran for the TUMS but the damn antacid did not make any dent on the burping. I was burping even in my sleep. I woke at 3 am, and there was the stomach pumping away to get the gas out of my gut. And sure enough, the next day the eyes were swollen shut and very little urine appeared. THAT STEAK WAS STUCK IN ME!

The next day, my appointment at an expensive private clinic came up, where a battery of doctors had different responses. The burping was a hiatal hernia, said one doctor, which can be fixed with surgery. Let me operate.

It was food allergies, said another doctor. Get needle tested on a hundred little holes in your skin and eliminate all dietary allergins --- then slowly reintroduce the allergins to see which makes you have allergic symtoms. Which are the allergins I must eliminate? I asked. "Wheat, rice, lamb, beef, chicken, eggs, peanut butter." Oh, practically everything I eat, I answered sadly. What can I eat? What isn't an allergin? Salad, vegetables, beans, corn tortillas, fruits, most grains except brown rice. Not easy but doable.

I went on beans and organic tortillas (as most commercial tortillas have wood cellulose in them and huge amounts of chemicals). On this pure diet I burped and burped. Beans are protein and starch mixed so it's one of the real hard to digest foods.

My facial edema continued, back pain as well. My urine was scanty. I had chronic pain on lower back, over kidneys and seemed to retain all liquids, and yet I barely salted my food and never had.

I was miserable. Thousands of dollars had been spent on doctors, I was eating like a rabbit yet I continued to be unable to eat without all symptoms returning.

Finally the assigned day to meet the nature healer arrived. I drove out of the city to this place called 'El Monte', and this rustic farm house. The woman who answered the door was in her 60's, hale and hearty like Ma Kettle and oddly, was named Marjorie like Marjorie Main who PLAYED Ma Kettle in the movie.

Marjorie read my eye with a magnifying glass. "The iris has a map of the body in it", she told me. "As does the sclera or white part of the eye, which has red veins pointing at the part of the iris that has the body parts. By looking at them I can see you have very diminished stomach acid. Almost NONE. You have lost the ability to even secrete it. Many people do, especially the elderly. It just happens. In your case, your stomach lining is not secreting the acid and completely undigested protein has been going through your body several times a day and has given a kind of toxic insult to your kidneys which can't handle this. The burping was a sign protein wasn't digesting but instead, was fermenting in your stomach. What have you done to injure the stomach lining? "

I confided that perhaps the buffered aspirins I used occasionally, ---well, almost NIGHTLY --- to sleep, might be doing that. "But I read in the newspaper that doctors recommended an aspirin a day."

"That may be so but some people can't handle even a buffered aspirin. Discontinue them, along with the coffee, which can burn stomach lining, " Marjorie told me. "I am going to give you a natural sleep formula made of vervaine, passionflower, hops, skullcap, and valerian. Steep the bulk herbs, don't simmer -- into tea or less effective, take these herbs as capsules. This will allow you to sleep without aspirins. Now, once we have removed the aspirin which was the aggravant, as it burned your stomach lining, we must help you start digesting your meals. I don't think your stomach acid is going to return right away. As a digestive aid, I want you to take betaine hydrochloric acid tablets (from healthfood store) whenever you eat proteins, and when you think natural stomach acids have returned, diminish from 3 to 2 tablets, then to 1, then to none. And when you eat, never dilute your stomach acid.

"Marjorie, I don't even know how I would do that."

"Simple, by drinking sodas or eating fruit, dessert, starches in same meal with proteins. Only salads and non-starch vegies combine with meat."

"So, I can have meat?"

"Well, one meat meal a day won't hurt even a weak kidney person. Of course, you're better off with non-uric acid (non-meat) proteins. BUT, and here is the Catch 22 of all vegetarian healthfooders, ---BEANS seeds, tahini, nuts and whole grain breads have phytic acid, which inhibits assimilation of minerals, as you start to use vegan protein source to take the place of FLESH, take mineral supplements. (Calcium citrate should be given with boron, selenium, and trace minerals. Whole wheat or bean/seed products can cause rickets from phytic acid causing calcium lacks. Phytic acid is destroyed if GRAINS or seeds are sprouted (then the bread is made) or if dough is left to rise in yeast stage for 2 hours. Or, you eat bean sprouts, sunflower sprouts, etc. PHYTIC acid is destroyed if beans are soaked overnight, then throw away water, cook low heat 2 hrs.

She went on. "All bread should be made of sprouted grains only. Any healthfood store has FLOURLESS bread. It's tastier than ordinary bread. And of course, soy beans are a fountain of vitamins and should be eaten, but only as tofu, tempeh, miso or tahini..as fermented forms have no phytic acid. And unfermented soy beans tend to line the digestive track like plastic, impeding vitamin absorption. So don't make soybeans yourself. You don't know how to ferment them right. Tofu costs 99c. Miso and Tempeh are even better, and are sold at any oriental market. Healthfood stores are loaded with books that have recipes for them.

When you go out to eat, ask for tofu with mushrooms found at any Chinese restaurant, served with black mushrooms over rice. You'll be surprised how delicious it is. And you can learn to make vegie-burgers a dozen at a time, freeze part of them, thaw later..."

"But I like steak" I said.

"No problem. Meat's fine. Although meat stresses the kidneys much more than vegetarian proteins when it's undigested, but we're gonna give you digestion back immediately!"

"YOU ARE? Great!"

"Only thing is, whatever meat you eat, don't dilute your stomach juices with beverages, drink only the water you absolutely need to remove thirst, maybe a few sips. Then, a couple of hours later, when meat is digested by your acid, you can drink all you wish of water, raw juices, but avoid citric acid in sodas as that burns the stomach mucosa and could prevent it from healing."

Next, Marjorie suggested several herbs that would cleanse and tone the kidneys and bring them back to health after all they'd been through, horsetail, uva ursi, cornsilk, and from the garden, peachtree leaves. She told me to steep the herbs and drink the tea between meals. "Or, you can use a K formula I get from Nature's Sunshine. It has all that and more." I took the bottle of capsules which was around 8$. K formula is made of naturally diuretic herbs and they cause urine to flow which unfortunately will wash away needed minerals. She told me that I must replace certain key body minerals like potassium with organic sources. Which were they? She said "inorganic minerals are found in mineral water, in the earth, in rocks. But you want the organic minerals, those found in juicy fruits and dark green salad ingredients, cress, spinach, and romaine.. plants which EAT THE ROCKS and turn soil into organic minerals."

"The whole vegetable and fruit kingdom is made up of organic minerals. Also, you can get supplements at the healthfood store. Take Calcium citrate, the most assimilable form. Later when you're well, get calcium paired with magnesium. Right now, as kidneys are still weak, magnesium is not good for you. Liquid potassium is better than capsules or tablets. Use 'Mineral broth' products like Dr. Bronner's or Dr. Jensen's amino broths. They are like soy sauce, a source of salt for your cooking, but full of minerals. And avoid anything acid. Pepsis, cokes, Sodas, full of citric acid, pickles, and all canned or pasteurized tomato products, which lets out Italian foods. Also avoid pasteurized cylinders of citrus juices. You can have raw orange juice if the oranges are l00% ripe which is very rare. You can have raw tomatoes and raw lemons in lemonade, just not pateurized as it triples the acidity."

"What about Mexican food and hot sauces?" I asked

"Avoid canned or jarred hot sauces as they are mostly vinegar. You can have the raw kind made of raw tomato/cilantro onion the kind the Mexican restaurants have. And you can have chile based enchiladas, and raw Jalapenos and powdered cayenne which can't burn the stomach. Ginger, Mustard, vinegar CAN so be careful of Thai food which has these three.

I did as told and was instantaneously, in one day, cured of the 3 months of continual day and night burping. I was able to eat a steak and salad that night, with corn tortillas and all the raw tomato based hot sauce I wanted. The trick was to take a few of the betaine hydrochloric acid tablets which helped digest the meal perfectly. Not a bubble of air. And even with all that eating my facial puff disappeared completely in a few days.

I was overcome with joy and enthusiasm. I took an extra month of kidney-healing herb teas to make sure my kidneys were cleansed and that the puff in face went back to normal. And then, just to make friends with my kidneys forever, I cut down on meat a few days a week and started making vegie burgers, a dozen at a time, and freezing 11 of them, so whenever I needed a protein fix, they were ready to nuke.

Today, if I even go near an aspirin, traces of burping and facial puff return --within hours! I've learned stomach acid is a very important thing. Can you believe doctors were so ignorant as to prescribe aspirins to everybody?

Then, when I got ill from stomach burn, to RX ANTI-ACIDS? which contain magnesium which no one with kidney damage should even touch? It goes to show you. Medicine is still in the dark ages. And the healthfood quacks whom doctors ridicule are light years ahead of the AMA!

So you might want to study this book as what's in it is enough of an education to allow you to help your entire family, all your friends tone and strengthen their bodies, avoid all illnesses and give you a career you could pursue the rest of your life. And do all of that in one week of reading and note-taking.

FOR YOUR NOTEBOOK: HERBS TO HELP KIDNEY FUNCTION- Diabetes stressing the old RINONES? Between meals, slosh a Tea made of Juniper berries, parsley herb, uva ursi leaves, dandelion root, corn silk, chamomile flowers. But take minerals to counter-effect the diuretic effect. (alfalfa, kelp, seaweeds, dandelion).

You do not DIGEST WELL? FOOD COMBINE correctly. Fatty meats go with greens, never starches, dairy or sugars. Use HERBS before meals to stimulate acid and get some serious DIGESTION.. if you burp after meals which shows lack of acid. Take a bitter salad (endive, cress, parsley, arugula, romaine) before any meal that’s gonna have protein in it. Next, be sure you smell the meat cooking. It makes your stomach acid secrete. Third, don't put meat in a tummy with sugar, fats, starches or dessert or milk. Wait three hours to enjoy dessert or milk. With meat, have greens, low carb vegies. Food Combining and proper digesting and assimilation of the power of food is half the job of healing and all of the job of prevention of disease!

None of this information is available from doctors. Healthfood stores have books that are full of it. Holistic healers read these books. They have hard drives organized into healing herbs, healing foods, diagnosing diseases and they
save information on these directories that they create on their hard drive.

I would suggest you save this information to C:\holism * and later when that directory gets filled up do C:\stomach C:\heart and C:\arthritis and break it down further into subjects.

Learning to file manage and use a file manager like ztree --(click there for article on POWERFUL FILE MANAGERS!) these are important for data storage which you’ll have to do when learning to heal. You have to store the healing information So go to http://www.ztree.com and download a file manager for free. Use it for 30 days. Then hondle with Him Henkel to get a deal. I did. FREE as I extoll him all over net But 15$ might do it.
