B-Complex Vitamins are Important for
Intestinal Health and the Nervous System
The muscles of the intestinal tract may become flabby
and prolapsed if the B-complex vitamins are not
abundant in the diet. (We take B complex tabs and extra
subliminal B 12 daily). These water-soluble vitamins are
not stored, but are lost in perspiration and urine, so be
sure to include in your diet foods rich in B vitamins.
These foods include: raw wheat germ, brewer’s yeast,
blackstrap molasses, rice polishings, brown rice, barley,
millet, quinoa, soybeans, lentils, dried peas and beans,
cornmeal, buckwheat groats, mushrooms, broccoli,
turnip and mustard greens, spinach, cabbage, peas,
cantaloupe, grapefruit and oranges. It’s also found in
fish, beef steak, beef heart, lamb kidney and egg yolks –
but we prefer the heart-healthy vegetarian sources!
Caution! Never, under any circumstances, use mineral
oil as a laxative! It robs the body of the fat-soluble
vitamins (A, D, E and K) that are waiting to be assimilated
by the intestinal tract. Avoid all mineral oil products.
Preferably don’t use enemas or colonic irrigations except
in cases of sickness when there is a bowel blockage or on
advice of your health advisors. Your nerves move your
bowels and they can and will do the job if your B-complex
intake is adequate and if your diet is correctly balanced with
sufficient fiber (raw salads, vegetables, fruits, etc.), moisture,
natural lubrication and 8 glasses of distilled water daily!
Keeping Clean Internally is the Secret
To Health, Youthfulness and Long Life!
You should have a bowel movement soon after arising
and one within an hour after each meal. Output must
equal intake! Make it a practice to go to the toilet within
20 to 30 minutes after each meal and concentrate your
entire mind on having a bowel evacuation. Use this
squatting-like position on page 102. It helps the stomach
muscles relax and open up better, aiding your colon to
have a more complete, easier bowel movement.
