10 pounds in 4 days

Hi Alva,
It's Sameerah Ferguson I just spoke you on the phone about the tea being delivered next week.
I also wanted to say that this tea has worked wonders for me and is the only liquid fast I can tolerate, in 10-09 I lost 10#'s in 4 days and plan to fast at least once every 2-3 months. The energy I obtain while on this fast is amazing!

Disease prevention

In the current debate over how often and when women should have mammograms is the question of what to do before, in-between, and after being tested. How do we become one of those people who is less likely to test positive?

The answer is simple and universal: eat better, eat less, and be active. Do those things that healthy people do.

Stated another way. Eat what your ancestors ate. Prepare and preserve your food as they did. Avoid eating anything modern to avoid (or stem) modern maladies.

Find a culture where the condition that concerns you is unknown. Eat what they eat, prepare your food as they prepare it. Try to match their level of physical activity.

Locate someone over 100 and healthy. What do they eat? How much? Notice how much they weigh? Can you pattern yourself after them?

the relationship between cleansing and nutrition

Cleansing and nutrition are two sides of the same coin. Whole food (an apple for example) is also cleansing food. Cleansing (accomplished through fasting) better enables us to absorb the nutrients in food. Ignore one and the other suffers with a compounding effect resulting in warning signals which we label as disease.

the problem with calorie restriction

The desire to isolate calorie restriction (CR) and quantify its benefits renders it meaningless. What rational person would adopt a lifestyle knowing in advance they will be:
  1. hungry most of the time
  2. too weak to exercise
The CR proponents correctly note the 24/7 availability of unlimited calories is unnatural but go on to propose the equally unnatural practice of counting (and consciously limiting) calories every day of your life.

Traditional long-lived cultures are active into their 100s and there is no indication their diets provided insufficient fuel to maintain a strenuous lifestyle. The mimicry of longevity benefits through rat starvation is an academic exercise with little benefit for humans.

understanding cleansing, part 1

Cleansing cannot be defined because it cannot be isolated. It includes (and is a by-product of) what appears to be its polar opposite (nutrition). Cleansing can only be understood in a spiritual or whole-body sense.

Take any organism and you find two primary, and supposedly independent, functions:
  1. absorption of nutrients (nourish)
  2. elimination of waste (cleanse)
They are thought of as independent because separated in time and space. We eat in the kitchen and sh_t sometime later in the bathroom. Many of us never make the connection and yet:
  1. the better you nourish, the better you cleanse,
  2. the less you nourish, the better you cleanse,
  3. the better you cleanse, the better you nourish
  4. the less you cleanse, the sicker you get.
We shall discuss each of the above statements in coming days.
