Detoxification to Support the Healing
|
||||
|
|
Dr. Jürgen Buche writes: “If you want to accelerate the elimination of toxic matter that the body is trying to eliminate via the most potent eliminative organ, the digestive system (colon), then it is necessary to give oneself at least one, possibly two or even more, coffee enemas each day. The coffee has the ability to generate potent liver enzymes that help the detoxification process and keep the colon free of toxins. While it is true that enemas (and colonics for that matter) only clean the large intestine (colon), do not exaggerate this enema business because the body still needs to absorb some nutrients via the colon wall.”
Compare The Master Cleanser’s suggestion to use an internal salt water flush as a “much superior method of cleansing the colonic tract without the harmful effects of customary colonics and enemas. This method will cleanse the entire digestive tract while the colonics and enemas will only reach the colon or a small part of it.”

Always remember to care for your intestinal flora, a major contributor to proper digestion & nutrient extraction as well as your immune system. A healthy intestinal flora keeps unwanted & damaging micro-organisms colonizing your intestines at bay.
Detoxification via heavy metal cleanses
Since I haven’t more fully researched the very important subject of internal heavy metals pollution yet, I rely on a mercury-free mouth, organic diet and avoidance of all toxins I am aware of (and able to avoid), thus hoping and trusting that my body is able to naturally fend heavy metals off via its various elimination channels. An example of how heavy metals chelation can lead to the return to health in four lymphoma patients can be found at On the link between lead and lymphoma/leukemia/anemia, provided by holistic MD Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt.
Those who want to look into “active” heavy metals chelation protocols may find the extensive information and experience provided by the same author very valuable, see On Effective Holistic Heavy Metal Chelation (Removal): definitions, diagnosis, neurotoxins, heavy metal toxicity & symptoms, risk factors, detox methods & side effects, natural chelation agents, secondary infections, etc. Also see Zeolites, a natural substance and reportly potent heavy metals detoxifier.
Detoxification through dental cleanups
Somewhat similar to Dr. Hulda Clark above, alternative (and much persecuted) cancer treatment physician Dr. Issels considered dental clean-up a sine qua non of any successful cancer healing protocol. Much data confirms the (possibly extreme) noxiousness of mercury, root canals, and other materials and processes routinely used in conventional dentistry. (Some striking examples illustrating the possibly major link between tooth problems, toxic dentistry such as root canals and fillings with amalgam or nickel, and cancer causation and healing.) In this respect, Dr. Meinig’s article “Root Canal Cover-Up” is a must-read in my eyes.
For mercury detox protocols, again see e.g. holistic MD Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt On Effective Holistic Heavy Metal Chelation (Removal). Additionally, you can read here a detailed report on how to naturally deal with toothache and sufficiently remineralize teeth to allow them to be used again without necessarily any recourse to the dentist.
Detoxification with calcium bentonite clay
Calcium bentonite clay (not inexpensive) is being used both internally and externally, see Activate toxin elimination through the skin: calcium bentonite clay.
Detoxification via oil pulling
Numerous claims are being made regarding the healing/detoxifying benefits of the simple, cheap and nature-inspired DIY practice of oil pulling. See Oil Pulling Therapy: Effective Natural Detoxification, Stimulation of Elimination, Self-Help Cure & Prevention of Many Diseases Incl. Cancer?.

4. Activate your lymphatic system
The lymph system is the body’s cellular waste removal system. Since it has no ‘pump’ like the heart which serves as a pump for the
circulatory system, it needs to be stimulated by movement.
Never restrict lymph flow such as through wearing tight clothing like bras and tight pants. There is a direct link between breast cancer
incidence and the length of time a bra is worn (see for instance Can Wearing A Bra Kill You? and lymphatic restriction through tight
clothing). There also seems to be an absence of prostate cancer in those countries where men don’t wear tight pants (which create local
hyperthermia, inhibit lymph flow, local cell nourishment and detoxification).
Activate your lymphatic system for instance through:
• brisk walking
• jumping on a small trampoline (for instance 5-10-minute sessions
daily without having to breathe heavily). This stimulates the
lymph circulation like nothing else can - except perhaps rope
jumping. Eminent alternative & conventional cancer
treatment researcher Lothar Hirneise concurs in his book
Chemotherapy Heals Cancer and The World Is Flat: “Please do
not underestimate the pronounced positive effects that jumping
on a trampoline can have on your lymphatic system. Even if you
do not feel the healing effect immediately, this simple device
offers immense support to your detoxification efforts.”
• lymphatic massage (see Yellow Pages etc.)
• several capsules of Echinacea daily (an excellent herb to stimulate
lymph flow).
Also see Health Benefits of Cayenne Pepper (Capsicum).
• brushing: mentally divide your body into two parts with the belly
button being the dividing line. On the upper half of your body,
including the arms, you brush your dry skin energetically with a
soft natural bristle broad brush in a long stroke that always ends at
a location close to your collar bone. Do the left half of your upper
body towards the left collar bone and the right half towards the
right one. Encircle each breast, stroke the breast tissue gently but
firmly - always towards the respective collar bone. This is the
general area where the lymph fluid re-enters the blood circulation
for ultimate filtering by the kidneys and eventual recycling. On the
lower body, including the legs, you would brush your dry skin
with long strokes towards the inguinal lymph nodes in each groin
i.e. where each leg joins the main trunk towards the front lower
part of your abdomen. This is where the largest and most
important lymph nodes are located and where a large part of the
lymph toxins are ‘digested’ and conditioned. This action will
stimulate to a great extent the efficient flow of the lymph fluid and
therefore ensure an effective waste removal action.
• cancertutor.com advises those unable to use their legs that “the
arm muscles are just as good, and perhaps better, at pumping the
lymphatic system as are the legs. Thus, lifting hand weights can
accomplish much in helping the lymphatic system.”
5. Activate toxin elimination through the skin
through exercise, sweating, saunas, showers, sweat baths, skin brushing and keeping the pores open (no anti-perspirant, artificial deodorant, powders, skin-care products that leave an unpenetrable film etc.). The skin is the largest organ of the body and is sometimes called the third kidney due to sweat containing almost the same elements as urine. It has been estimated that as much as 30% of bodily wastes are eliminated by way of perspiration. Additionally, fever, both naturally occurring and via artificially induced hyperthermia (such as through the use of a FIR [Far-Infrared] sauna), has been observed to kill cancer cells, see Fever & Cancer Healing and the observations re fever in Homeopathy, Carcinosinum and Cancer.
Massage, both “classical” and via foot reflexology, can also help. I know from a person who used to give massages professionally that the smell coming from a person’s skin when massaged can be extremely unpleasant (pointing to the amount of wastes being excreted via the massage).
Foot reflexology has been used for help with a multitude of health complaints. To illustrate the possibly strongly detoxifying effect of foot reflexology, here is an anecdotal observation I was told by an acquaintance: after he massaged a friend's reflexology points dealing with her eliminative organs, she had to "go to the bathroom" (have bowel movements) a “whopping” 12 times in the course of the following day.
Calcium Bentonite Clay
A special mention may need to be made of Calcium Bentonite Clay. Used for instance in baths, I have read of dramatic-sounding
detoxification effects being obtained. Apparently it is even a very effective ionizing radiation chelator: “You have Calcium Bentonite Clay as your ally. By using Calcium Bentonite Clay as a lifestyle
practice, as described in the book Living Clay, [Nature’s Own Miracle Cure, by Perry A. Smith], you will ... protect your body from the daily bombardment of radiation.... [R]adioactive material is of a
positive charged ion. Calcium Bentonite Clay is a negative charged ion. Simply put, Calcium Bentonite Clay adsorbs and absorbs positive charged ions and you wash them off or pass them through your body.
(quoted from
survivingadirtybombattack.com/Download/Surviving%20A%20Dirty%20Bomb%20Atta ck.pdf). Many more suggestions for chelating ionizing radiation
One variety of calcium bentonite clay is considered the purest and best (most effective) available. Its price is high but varies enormously among providers (I’ve seen the cheapest offer so far at ebay with 20 pounds for 60US$). .
6. Breathing, oxygenation and clean air
Dr. Otto Warburg, twice Nobel Laureate, awarded the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1931 for his research on cellular
respiration, writes, “The growth of cancer cells is initiated by a relative lack of oxygen. Cancer cannot live in an oxygen-rich environment... Cancer has only one prime cause. It is the
replacement of normal oxygen respiration of the body’s cells by an anaerobic (i.e., oxygen deficient) cell respiration.”
See Otto Warburg On The Prime Cause & Prevention of Cancer: Respiration of
Oxygen in Normal Body Cells vs. Fermentation of Sugar in Cancer Cells and More quotes on cancer, degenerative disease & oxygen.
Poor Oxygenation: "Some causes of poor oxygenation include a buildup of carcinogens and other toxins within and around cells, which blocks and then damages the cellular oxygen respiration mechanism. Clumping up of red blood cells [caused by improper diet & overeating] slows down the bloodstream and restricts flow into capillaries [the end capillaries are just large enough to allow one blood cell to enter], which also causes poor oxygenation. Even lack of the proper building blocks for cell walls, essential fatty acids, restricts oxygen exchange." And according to Dr. Johanna Budwig, ingestion of processed fats such as hydrogenated and heat-damaged transfats have a directly asphyxiating (choking) effect on cells.
And did you know that plants are very effective air purifiers, removing pollutants such as formaldehyde, benzene, trichloroethylene and even dust? Remove pollutants from the air in offices and homes with nature's most efficient indoor air cleaner. Surround yourself with plants - studies have shown that patients in hospitals experience shorter recovery times when plants are present (from wolvertonenvironmental.com/air.htm).
Read at Healing Cancer With Oxygen, Ozone & Hydrogen Peroxide the amazing double healing of “terminal” cancer using a simple approach-stepping up the cancer patient’s oxygenation through a
simplified form of ozone therapy combined with juicing.
More on the crucial role of oxygen for instance at alkalizeforhealth.net/oxygen.htm.
Incidentally and interestingly, according to a detailed theory posited by K.P. Buteyko, extended deep breathing is damaging to health, quote: "The deep respiration during which the rate of CO2 exhalation from the organism somewhat exceeds the rate of its accumulation in the tissues, develops into a respiratory alkalosis characterised by the decrease in CO2 and the increase in pH." You are advised to further research this subject before engaging in any deep breathing exercises.
7. Sunlight - the ultimate detoxifier?
8. Fasting
Pure water fasting may not be recommended for healing cancer or cancer patients as well as for people holding lots of stored environmental toxins in their tissues due to their great need of nutrients to help neutralize and flush out these toxins (see juicing). Max Gerson’s “conception of a prolonged fast or periodical three-day fast” was that “You can't let the cancer patient fast. In the cancer patient the body is so depleted, if you let them fast they go downhill terribly.” (Compare Gerson Therapy.) Also see Stanley Burrough’s objections to water fasting.
For health maintenance, see for instance “FASTING Diet Benefits For Detoxification & Health: The Perfect Body Cleanser, Key to Internal Purification & Super Energy Awakens Mind & Spirit”, a helpful article on effective fasting and Upton Sinclair’s The Fasting Cure which includes several cancer healing testimonials attributed to fasting. However, The Fasting Cure was written nearly 100 years ago, i.e. decades before environmental, chemical & radiation pollution started to become major problems throughout the westernized world.
As mentioned above, a particularly effective way to fast and internally cleanse on just "lemonade" (made with maple syrup or blackstrap molasses) appears to be the “Master Cleanser” formula, developed and thoroughly researched by Stanley Burroughs. The Master Cleanser allows one to efficiently detoxify without incurring significant energy loss or discomfort and is simultaneously used to heal and prevent disease. Details on the Master Cleanser
