Cleanse footnote on avoiding Alzheime'rs disease and other cancers (Addendum to last post)

I forgot to mention the importance of getting rid of aluminum in your diet.
This is the main ingredient in most deodorants and is the major leading cause of Alzheimer's. So go to Whole Foods and get a liquid crystal stick deodorant. You can use the solid crystal but personally I think they are as effective as the sole of your shoe. (When you are eating less bad crap you will stop smelling and sweating anyway-- I went from needing prescription strength antiperspirant to liquid crystal with no problems after doing the cleanse in my previous post.)

Also stop cooking with aluminum pans if you still do that. And the non-stick kind are bad too just in case you were wondering. Go for the iron or stainless steel and if you cook with enough olive oil you won't have a cleaning mess (except for iron.) Anyway, just do it.

All this is related to avoiding Alzheimer's which of course runs in my family -yay!

Sunset Yellow AKA Yellow #6 will increase the absorption of aluminum in your body times 100+ which is why when I used my emergency deodorant I keep in my car (full of aluminum) and took DayQuil (full of yellow #6 as the second ingredient) when I was sick I immediately lost my phone and my memory of where it could possibly be (in my car)....Being sick on other cold meds or none clearly makes a difference.

Start reading labels.

So avoid food coloring as well. In Europe it apparently got phased out of most foods in 2009 but we still have zero regulation by the FDA in the USA --yay!

This is lovely on Skittles:

And stop eating anything fried or processed.

To prevent Alzheimer's they recommend fish (Omega oils -duh!... helps with the brain), curry, boiled potatoes (Dr. Oz says "baked" but he clearly is forgetting baked potatoes cause that carcinogen reaction.)...fried is obviously no good here. Possibly coffee but it's an acid in your body so you really want to avoid that shit.

Also do crossword puzzles and other brain games for brain function. Yet another excuse to play Words With Friends! Paint, write and do basic math (try to work all areas of that brain of yours.)

If you are having liver issues caused by drugs and or alcohol look at the prescriptions you are taking, by all means do the cleanse, especially the lemon water and Omega 6 and 3's and take tons of Milk Thistle (found in the vitamin isle.)

Rashes, again look at your entire diet. If you are having any issue in one part of your body at a critical level your entire body is also out of whack and needs attention. (Treat the source vs. the symptom.) Do your own research and get a second opinion.

Also... Here's a good article on the oils. But just use raw coconut oil instead of butter (if lactose intolerant) and instead of cooking oil:

Also for an extreme detox or to whiten teeth, try this http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0041ESF94/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=herbkati-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B0041ESF94 I haven't used it yet but it looks great.

Cheers.

How I lost 6 sizes in 10 days!...And not even trying!

Yes I was a size 10, but no more! How I got to be a size 10? read my post, "How to gain 6 sizes in 6 months doing 6 things."

So, I did this cleanse and was about to throw out all my old clothes and then suddenly my size 4's were fitting! Yes, holy crap! And now even my size 4's are too big.

If you do this cleanse you will feel great and have more energy and be way less fatigued. Losing weight is just a minor side effect. Losing weight was never my goal.
I just did it to clean my system out.

The world has so much more to offer than it did when I was a vegan in the early 1990's in Chicago. So you can easily have fun eating healthy these days and "everyone is doing it," not like it was back in the day where I was a lonely soul attacked by everyone's mom for not believing the French fry counted as a vegetable and not touching the rump roast. You can do this! And you can even eat fish!


So here's the plan:

1. Walk 30-60 minutes a day. Not hard or fast walking but do walk a dog and sing if you can. Sing to the dog while you walk and it will make the whole walking process more enjoyable for everyone involved.

2. Dance for 5-20 minutes a day

3. Do lymphatic self massages (look these up on youtube.com... there are about 5 or 6 different ones for each part of your lymph system) or (easier) get a trampoline now called a rebounder and jump for 20-30 minutes once every day or two. (I didn't have a rebounder until after I did the cleanse but it's a lot more fun that way.)

4. No caffeine, soda, tea, vinegar, vegetable oil or salt (for reasons of creating acid in your body and they are bad for you.)

5. Eat 1-4 teaspoons of raw coconut oil per day; the more the better; this will help your sugar levels and get the acid out of your body

6. Drink water with lemon juice, try to drink a gallon a day or your weight in water; this will clean the toxins out of your body and make you feel full.

7. Take Omega 3 and 6 supplements and multivitamins; the Omegas help your brain happiness levels and sugar levels among other things, you can't really take too much here; at least 2 a day of the non-odorless kind (trust me!)...also good for Diabetics

8. Eat raw almonds (when you are hungry these start tasting great as your taste buds will change. Wholefoods has some Italian ones that are pretty good; raw means unsalted and uncooked!

9. No meat or dairy! Only almond based or soy based products like milk, tofu, cheese (all non-dairy). You can have fish but not chicken! If you are going to break these rules make sure it is Kosher and organic. (But since Kosher chicken tastes like rubber, really why bother!)

10. Eat lots of greens, try to OD on your greens and eat organic whenever ever you can afford it. If you can afford to you have no excuse not to.

11. Make a salad dressing out of avocado oil, virgin olive oil, lemon juice and raspberries or other berries.

12. Eat lots of avocado and other natural fats (this gets the acid out of the body)

13. Avoid the gym. Yes I said it. Weights are good but avoid hard exercise (where you can't easily hold a conversation; this is anerobic which creates the build up of lactic acid in your body and what you want is aerobic activity which requires breathing)

14. Eat less but start eating nuts in the AM to get your metabolism going.

15. Put coconut oil or other natural high quality lotion on your body daily ie. no stretch marks from rapid weight loss

16. Don't eat any bad shit, nothing fried, processed and no junk food or drive though.
Besides being a known carcinogen, (fried shit in vegetable oil...) well the oil that looks crystal clear is bathed in bleach, Drano and other bad crap. If you eat potatoes make sure they are boiled and not baked or fried. Sweet potatoes are great, but not fried!

17. Eat whole grains here and there when you do eat starches and eat lots of fruit like grapefruit and bananas; avoid oranges because of the huge sugar content.

18. Do breathing exercises and focus on breathing into your abdomen (lower lung area).
Try the breath in for 8 sec count, hold for 10 and breath out for 20 or whatever combination you can muster. The point is to breath a whole lot and deeply.

19. Focus on being happy about your life and seeing yourself in a positive light as a thin beautiful person. I find I look great when I am feeling great and when I feel crappy I suddenly look in the mirror and see fat that wasn't there before. So, the secret is to control your mind!

20. Find ways to play and have fun and be joyful and literally focus on allowing love into your heart and think about all your are grateful for. Somehow this really helps the happiness levels and in controlling your state.

21. Don't drink alcohol at least go off alcohol for 10 days.

22. Avoid eating proteins with your carbs when possible; with sushi this isn't really possible. As a sushi addict I sympathize here. You can do sashimi though.

23. Don't drink any liquids while you are eating. Just pretend you are in India, you will get used to it. The saliva breaks down your food better and somehow causes better absorption.

24. Don't eat sugar. Or fake sugars. Sugar naturally occurring in fruit is OK but lay off sugar. I had two bags of candy I stared at the entire time but do your self a favor and get rid of all the shit that temps you in your fridge and all around your house. (No stashing candy!) Eventually you won't ever crave it an can replace it with Agave nectar.

25. I almost forgot. So important, get off any prescription drug you are on! This will affect your mood and toxins in your body as well as your size. Of course do it gradually (although I resorted to cold-turkey) and this isn't a weight loss plan, this is a cleanse plan that works as a diet by default by simply not eating bad crap and cleaning out the crap in your body. If you seriously are a chronic dieter or have life threatening issues of course consult your doc.

I already thought I ate healthy but cutting out all vinegar was a big change and no occasional eating of fried chicken and fries. I don't eat it or crave it at all now.
I also had to learn to love vegetables and cut out potato chips (carcinogen and vegetable oil thing.) It's really a lot easier than you think. I keep a gallon of lemon water near my bed and nuts in my purse. Yes it seems nuts... but it works!
I'm back to being a vegan besides the fish thing; fish because of the omegas are great.
Also you can make kale chips if you are craving potato chips- just bake the kale in sprinkled olive oil on a pan that you've oiled at say, 350 degrees for 10-20 minutes.

Good luck!
