Elimination

Edgar Cayce was one of the best known medical intuitives who ever lived.

"Edgar Cayce (1877-1945) has been called the "sleeping prophet," the "father of holistic medicine," and the most documented psychic of the 20th century. For more than 40 years of his adult life, Cayce gave psychic "readings" to thousands of seekers while in an unconscious state, diagnosing illnesses and revealing lives lived in the past and prophecies yet to come."

I have read some of his work, mainly his Encyclopedia of medical remedies based on readings he did for people with such ailments.

A very strong pattern emerged from his remedies. And that was...elimination. As I learned more about healthy eating, I found out that elimination is so important, I would seriously list it in the top 3 of things to do to improve your health -improve your elimination.

The medical community states that "every body is different" when it comes to elimination and as long as you are going at least once a week (worst case scenario) but an average of once every three days, that is enough. That is so, so wrong. You should be going AT LEAST once a day.

Unfortunately all sugars, dairy, starches (sugar), wheat, and most meat, slow down the digestive and elimination process IMMENSELY. *

So the average person eats what? Meat, potatoes, cheese, bread, sugar -allllll day every day.

Most people do not know that my NUMBER ONE reason for not eating meat (other than fish) is due to how much it slows down my digestive/elimination mechanism.

It really is all about poo.

*The same foods that grind your elimination system to a halt are also the same foods that are inhibiting proper absorption of vitamins and minerals.

Profit

Some people I know will not even consider the possibility of truth behind information without a "repeatable double-blind study" to back it up. They throw their own intelligence, powers of observation and objectivity, their ability to deduct and use logic, and understand cause-and-effect, as well as their own personal "experiments" -away. This is unfortunate because in order to complete scientific studies, these studies have to be funded. And, more often than not they are funded by companies with agendas that are self-serving in increasing their profit margin and not necessarily on the greatest good for the greatest number of people. The sugar industry is probably number one, followed closely by dairy. Therefore, people who ONLY rely on studies for health information, are a lot more likely to make unhealthy food choices. Understanding the power of profit is very important for your health.
