Guest guest Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 thannk you excellent page on mucousless diet: Mucous is acutally a simple sugar if defined sicientifically created in the stomach by sugar from the foods we eat; never heard salt causes mucous though; however it is The Sugar in Flour adn other carbs and dairy products which cause the stomach to manufacture lots of mucous. Salt prob. irritates the stomach can cause the mucous prodcution. The Mucusless Diet (from the page you sent so we can all read this) An essential step to healing the body is for an individual to eliminate the mucus-forming foods from the diet, so as not to put mucus into the body faster than it can be taken out or eliminated. Using this procedure, not only are the sinuses, the bronchi, and the lungs cleared but also the constipating mucus (catarrh) in the tissues of the body from the top of the head to the bottom of the feet. If this diet is followed as outlined, we guarantee that after a short time you will have much more satisfaction from the foods we recommend, for better health, than you ever had from the food of your former diet. Now, what can you eat? The Don'ts: Salt, eggs, all refined sugars, meat, all milk products, flours and flour products. The following food (secondary, denaturized, or inorganic) substances are to be eliminated from the individual's diet: Salt: For those who are accustomed to large amounts of salt, this may sound difficult, but if you will substitute coarsely ground pepper and savory herbs, adding powdered kelp, you will find that the craving for salt will immediately begin to disappear. Black pepper is a good nutritional herb and helps rebuild the body when used in its natural state. But when pepper is cooked in food, the molecular structure changes, so that it becomes an inorganic irritant (as high heat changes cayenne, black pepper, and spices from organic to inorganic), and this is the only time when damage results. The use of salts that are of a vegetable or potassium base (such as Dr. Jensen's, Dr. Browner's, and other various ones, which in some cases contain some sea salt) is all right, providing it is not overdone. Eggs: No eggs should be eaten in any form. (mucus forming) Sugar and all sugar products: You may use honey, sorghum molasses or blackstrap molasses, but no sugar of any type. Meat: Eliminate all meats from the diet. A little white fish once a week, or a bit of young chicken that has not been fed commercial food or inoculated with formaldehyde and other antispoilage serums, would be all right (as these are the higher forms of edible flesh), but do not use them too often. (mucus forming) Milk: Eliminate all dairy products: butter, cheese, cottage cheese, milk, yogurt, etc. These are all mucus-forming substances and in most cases, are extremely high in cholesterol (especially butter). As a substitute for butter or margarine (hardened vegetable oils, etc.), you can train your taste buds to enjoy a good, fresh, bland olive oil on vegetables, salads, and basic meals. Flour and Flour Products: Flour is eliminated because, when heated and baked at high temperatures, it changes to a mucus-forming substance. It has no more life. All wholesome food is organic, where unwholesome food is dead and inorganic. The Do's: any whole, live, raw foods. Fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, seeds, and a small amount of fresh fish or chemical free chicken. Supplements: Revitalizing and healing aids. Our supplemental recommendations will build up strength in the body and start cutting the mucus out of the tissues and remove the catarrh (mucus) from the system. Cayenne: Take 1 teaspoonful (or 2 capsules) of cayenne 3 times a day. The following information is for the usage of the powder. However, capsules may be used in place of the powder. (3-4 " 0 " capsule is approximately equal to one teaspoon. Varies depending upon the powder used.) Start gradually with 1/4 teaspoonful in a little cold water; drink this and follow with a glass of cold water. Add 1/4 teaspoonful to this dosage every 3 days, until you are taking 1 teaspoonful 3 times a day (the graduated dosages will accustom your system to the pungency of the herb). Honey and Apple-Cider Vinegar: Place 1 tablespoonful of honey and 1 tablespoonful of vinegar in warm water, so that the honey will liquefy. Sip this amount 3 times a day so that at the end of the day a total quantity of 3 tablespoonfuls are consumed. This must be apple cider vinegar; do not use malts or other types of vinegars, as these are damaging to the body. The apple cider vinegar is medicinal and very beneficial. Kelp: Each patient should use between 10 to 15 kelp capsules daily, if there is any indication of a thyroid problem; otherwise, 2 or more will keep the body in good condition as preventative nutrition. This can take the place of salt and helps build a new thyroid gland. Kelp powder can be used on salads and in other ways. Molasses: Take 1 tablespoonful 3 times a day of either sorghum or blackstrap molasses. Wheat Germ Oil: Take 1 tablespoonful of a good, fresh wheat germ oil three times a day. Do not be concerned because this diet omits meat and the commercial types of protein and don't worry about adding protein, as you will get all that you need in these foods. The gorilla is built on the same order as the human being, and he gets all the protein he needs from just fruits, nuts and seeds. The best food to start the day is fresh fruit or a good low heated whole grain. This should be a cereal in its wholesome state (with life in it). It can be prepared in a wide-mouth thermos bottle: Take a wide- mouth thermos bottle, fill in the early afternoon or evening one-third frill of grain, then finish filling the wide-mouth thermos bottle with boiling water. Turn the thermos over two or three times to mix the grain and water. The next morning the grain is ready for consumption. Sprouted grains are another excellent and nutritious food source. Alternate the grains. Almost any live seed or grain can be sprouted, find the one you like and enjoy. Fruit and vegetable juices along with dried fruits are another wonderful source for this diet. There are also thousands of salad combinations available, with some investigation and experimentation, you will never run short of interesting combinations. This diet can be challenging as well as rewarding. The health and wellness that will result from following this diet is reward enough. Click here for sample recipes. For additional information and recipes, see Dr. 's book Regenerative Diet or Transfiguration Diet by Littlegreen Inc.'s Think Tank. I am into Arnold Erhert's Mucousless Diet Healing System;will send info. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 Ordinary Table Salt Many doctors readily acknowledge that ordinary table salt, which is almost 100% sodium chloride, can produce harmful effects in the body. " Ordinary salt...interferes with the normal flow of all the fluids of the body and so tends to cause rheumatism, catarrh (inflamed mucus membrane, causing mucus in nose and throat), and other diseases...it creates mineral imbalances and a relative deficiency of every other mineral constituent of the body. Then by displacing potassium, it causes a deficiency of potassium. In addition, Dr. C. West, a noted researcher on the lymphatic system, claims that ordinary table salt upsets the delicate mineral balance in and around the cell, thus interfering with the electrical function of the cell. Sea Salt In considering sea salt as a possible alternative to ordinary table salt, researchers learned that sea salt contains too much magnesium and insufficient potassium, since humans, like other land life, require more potassium than do sea creatures. There have been lots of arguments among nutritionists and holistic doctors regarding sea salt --- some praise the benefits, but others, such as Dr. Carey Reams, a noted biochemist and healer (who in his clinic healed many from Cancer), has stated emphatically that sea salt registered 8 times saltier than regular salt when in the body and, thus, had a devastating effect on the health of the body. He recommended to his patients to use no salt. He and others say that the body wants the kind of salts that come naturally in your fruits and vegetables. ________________________________________________________________________________ I haven't eaten seasalt in a week and the edema that I get from sitting for so long has lessened. It comes and goes normally. This is opposed to Dr. Batmanghelidge's water cure theory. trekkie323 wrote: , Do you feel sea salt is a no-no as well? --------------------------------- Looking for last minute shopping deals?
