So you balance your ailments against your diet – you
may have had bronchitis or asthma for many, many
years – all this must be taken into consideration before
you can live completely on The Toxicless Diet, Body
Purification and Healing System. You’ve got to consider if
you have had any operations. You’ve got to consider how
many harmful foods and drugs you have used. You then
not only have to get the food toxins out of your system,
but if you have used drugs of any kind, they too are
buried deeply into the tissues and must be flushed out!
The next consideration is how far your vitality has
been lowered, and just how much Vital Force still
remains in your body. The various physical troubles you
have had to date in your life, as well as any drugs you
have taken, all must be taken into consideration. Ask
yourself these vital questions: How much meat, eggs and
dairy products do you eat? These questions will all have
to be carefully considered. After you have responsibly
analyzed all factors of your diet, food intake, habits, etc.,
you are ready to move on to the third step.
Step 3: Your Individual Transition Diet
We want you to remember first, and bear in mind at
all times, that the ideal diet of man is raw and lightly
cooked fruits; raw, steamed or baked vegetables, brown
rice, beans, legumes, raw nuts and seeds. Include a healthy
abundance of raw and lightly cooked green-leafed
vegetables, such as chard, spinach, beet tops, turnip
greens, mustard greens, collards and kale. We hope you
will be ambitious about following this lifestyle with
internal cleansing, to reach the ideal state of purification.
There are various degrees of health that can be obtained
by controlling the diet. We feel that if a person can reach
the point where their diet contains from 60 % to 70 % raw
fruits and vegetables – with a minimum amount of
protein, fats and sugars – they can live in a higher state
of health for long, vigorous years. (See food guide page 120.)
