A Purifying Diet

An Effective Purifying and Reducing Diet, Especially for the Chronically 111, Based Upon Over 60 Years of Practice & Research

“Man is ill because he is never still.”

—Paracelsus (Often quoted by Dr. Stone)

The following Purifying Diet should be taken as long as there is constipation, high blood pressure, arthritis, rheumatism, pain, swelling, congestion, toxicity, and overweight.

MORNING TIME is used for flushing the system and cleansing it. No solids are taken—only liquids, including plenty of fresh grapefruit, oranges and lemon juice; or fresh grape juice in season; but no milk, regular tea or coffee. It is most important to flush out the liver, the kidneys and the intestinal tract in this way, to restore their correct chemical function. The entire well-being of the body depends on this.

Instead of bed tea in the morning, take two or more cupfuls of hot herb tea made of Licorice Root, Himalayan Mountain Violet, Anise or Fennel, Peppermint, and Foenugreek, to which should be added at the time of serving: fresh lemon juice, fresh ginger juice to suit the taste, and honey if desired; but sugar should never be used. Several glassfuls of this may be taken at a time during the morning between meals, or any other time—day or night, as desired. If constipated, use more licorice root and fresh garlic. In diarrhoea, use no licorice, ginger or liver-flush, but substitute cinnamon bark in the tea and use powdered or finely ground cinnamon with baked apples and/or dates and raisins, chewed thoroughly. Blackberry juice relieves it at once. Cinnamon, cooked with rice and barley water, or barley and curd are also effective in diarrhoea.

NOTE: A good quality of cold-pressed oil with lemon is a cleanser for the liver, while cooked or fried oils or fats of any kind are bad for the liver and will clog it, especially when the fats are cooked or fried into the foods at a high temperature, which then cannot be separated and digested at the inner body temperature of 105 degrees.

FOR BREAKFAST: Take from three to four tablespoonfuls of pure, cold-pressed almond, olive or sesame seed oil with twice the amount of fresh lemon juice and add fresh ginger juice to taste. This I call the “liver-flush.” If you can get grapefruit, add the juice of one grapefruit or several oranges, and drink it. Chew and swallow three to six small cloves of garlic with the oil mixture. Then have the hot tea mentioned above without sweetening. That is a cleansing breakfast, which helps to oxidize the tissues. Do not use honey with the liver-flush.

NOTE: The seeds from the lemons, grapefruit and oranges can be chewed and kept in the mouth for fifteen minutes or more, after breakfast or any time that the
