General Recommendations:

Liver

• Liver/Gallbladder Flush. A liver/gallbladder flush 2-4 times a year (even more often if ill) to eliminate any accumulation of liver fat, toxins, and incipient gallstones is mandatory.
• Liver Rebuilding Tonic. In addition to flushing, you need to regularly partake of a liver rebuilding tonic. Such a tonic does three things. Herbs such as milk thistle stimulate the liver to rebuild itself. Picrorhiza kurooa serves to protect the liver. And herbs such as dandelion root, barberry, artichoke, and beet leaf are lipotropics that help to clean the fat out of the liver.
• Regular consumption of fresh apple/beet juice is proufondly beneficial to the liver.
• Note: never do a liver or blood cleanse without first cleaning out the colon to provide an outlet for the toxins released by the liver.

Blood

• Cleansing. 2-4 times a year (even more often if ill) you need to go on an herbal cleansing of the blood.
• Oral Chelation. 304 times a year for a period of 2-3 weeks at a time, use either:

• Cilantro pesto as described earlier in the chapter
• Malic acid tablets.
• If you want, you can also use one of the low-level oral chelators on the market.

• Alkalinize or Die.

• Cut way back on acid-producing foods such as meat, dairy, sugar, soda pop, refined grains, ect. Add alkalinizing foods to your diet.
• Drink water that has been magnetized. Magnetizing raises the pH by almost one full point.
• One final thought on pH. It really makes sense to test the pH of your saliva on a regular basis as a touchstone of your overall health. You can pick up pH paper specifically designed for this purpose at most health foo stores. Make sure you test in the morning before brushing or eating as these things can temporarily alter the ph in your mouth. Just spit out a couple of times into the sink, then onto the pH paper. Ideally, your pH should be about 7.45. If it tests below 7.0, you should get aggressive in terms of alkalinizing your body.

• Fasting. There are any number of books on fasting to help guide you through the process. The principles of fasting are simple:

• First, when you deprive your body of food, your body begins to consume itself to survive. Being geared to self-survival, your body chooses to consume damaged cells and toxic cells first, saying the healthiest for later.
• It takes a tremendous amount of energy, and puts a tremendous strain on your body's organs, to process food. (Check your heart rate after eating a large meal and observe how exhausted you fell.) When you fast, your body diverts that energy to repair and rebuilding.
• No matter what medical doctors may say, the process work. In fact, a simple thought that should clue you in to the necessity for periodic fasting is that fact that human beings are the only animals that eat when they're sick. Think about that for a moment. Have you ever observed how dogs or cats, for example, stop eating while they're recovering. They intuitively understand the healing power of fasting. There are threee levels of fasting worth considering.

• Pure water fasting. This is the most powerful, but also produces the most toxic side effects. I do not recommend it unless you have a great deal of experience in fasting or are working directly with a qualified healer.
• Juice fasting. Fasting on fresh juices helps smooth out many of the negatives of fasting.
• Spirulina or Chlorella fasting. Even gentler is supplementing your juice fast with spirulina or chlorella throughout the day.

• The one thing you need to be careful of while fasting is the build up of ketones in the body. Make sure you drink large amounts of water to flush the ketones from your body.
• One final note on fasting. In Chapter 3, we discussed the herbal colon-activator formula that provides both cleansing and healing to the entire gastrointestinal system. It's highly recommended that you use such a formula while fasting to accelerate removal of toxins from the colon. If not, you will have to take a colonic or an enema every day.
