How to Begin to Cleanse

Starterkitsm-email

Several articles are available to explain the “why”.  Today we are going to unwrap the question:  “How” to begin?

The decision has been made; it’s time to do some internal spring cleaning.  Everything you need to cleanse the bowels, liver and kidneys is now setting next to the open box on your dining room table.  Surveying the bags of tea and brown bottles of extracts it is easy to feel a bit overwhelmed.   Where do I begin is the first of many questions you are asking yourself.  Today we are going to open the box together as we go through the basic startup of a good cleansing, healing program.

the Incurables Program; An Overview

The Unpacking of the box

Grouping the items together for the flushing programs is a good place to begin.

Foundational Items: Superfood, Echinacea, (Bowel Formulas) LBF #1, LBF #2

Kidney Flush: Kidney Flush Tea & Kidney Tincture, Cayenne, Echinacea

Support Formulas: This would be any specific formulas for your personal conditions. Example would be: High Blood Pressure, Female or Male formula, Pancreas Support, ect…  These items can be started today.  Begin using the dosage we discussed or look up the information sheet on line in the Member’s Area.  You can also email if you need and someone will be happy to send you specific information on how to use these formulas.

The Directions: If you do not have the Flushing E-books feel free to download them from the member’s area or email and we will send then as attached pdf files.  The flushing E-books contain directions and schedules.

Today: At Dinner time take 1 LBF #1 Capsule.  That is it. Very simple, continue with your regular food program while you establish your bowel program.

Day 1: Breakfast is 2 table spoons of Superfood in your fresh juice.  Midmorning take a full ounce of Echinacea in a large mug.  At dinner time take two LBF # 1 Capsules.

Day 2: Repeat day 1 but take 3 capsules with your dinner.  Continue to increase the LBF #1 until your bowels are open and working well.

Day?: Somewhere between day 3 and day 10 most of us find our LBF #1 number, (how many caps we have to use daily to maintain good bowel movement), once you have found your number it is time to begin using the LBF #2.  Most of us have to increase the LBF #1 by 2 or 3 caps daily when we begin using the LBF #2.  The LBF #2 is a black clay powder formula which moves slowly through the system.  It is a bowel vacuum, pulling waste from the walls as it passes along.  Follow the directions using 1 rounded teaspoon every three waking hours.

When the bowels are open and working well it is time to begin the liver flushing program.  

The five day Liver Flushing program can be done with the degree of intensity desired.  Beginning with an E.L.F. (Emergency Liver Flush) is a great way to kick off your week of cleansing.   It is always a great idea to end with the E.L.F. on day five.  See the video in the member’s area for more details on doing an E.L.F.

Five Day Kidney Flush: After completing the week of Liver Flushing it is time to flush the Kidneys.  The Kidney Flush is also a five day program.  See E-book for detailed instructions.

Painless Juice Fasting

Dara Dietz
treat-cancer240x240

When thinking of summer my mind is filled with all the great tastes and smells out of the garden.  Meals prepared with nothing but fresh fruits and vegetables right from nature.  This is also the best time of year for a good long juice fast filled with plenty of water and nutrition.

When doing a juice fast of any length there are several good items to use daily.

Fiber Plus Powder: Use a rounded teaspoon of fiber in a glass of juice or water each day.  This will add bulk to the bowels ensuring comfortable movements.

Superfood: Use 2 to 4 tablespoons three times a day for added energy.  Using the Superfood in a glass of fresh juice three times a day will not only keep the hungeries away but your energy will shoot through the roof.

Echinacea: Use an ounce a day for four days each week you are fasting.  The need for a strong immune system while juicing is huge.  All the fresh juices create an alkaline condition in the body which allows for deep down detoxing.  The entire system will be dumping waste.  Unless you want to feel like you’ve been run over by a freight train I strongly suggest using the Echinacea.

Carrot Juice: 16-32 ounces each day.  This will ensure the raw material is available to build the needed immune cells.  Juice your carrots first then build the rest of your vegetable juice on top the carrot juice.  Split into 16 oz portions and drink throughout the day.

Fruit Juice: Apple juice is always an excellent juice.  Here is a suggestion for a tasty blend of several different fruits.  This will produce about ½ gallon of juice.

8 Kale Leaves, 6 apples, 1 pear, ¼ pineapple, 1 cantaloupe

Using the fruit juices in the morning and vegetable juices in the afternoon is often found useful.  The fruit juice provide a nice pick up for starting the day.

Juice Once A Day: Many people make their fresh juice just as they are ready to consume it during the day.  Keeping up with all the juicing chores needed for a juice fast can become the biggest obstacle to doing one.  Here is a simple way to keep your juice fresh for the day.

Pick up a case of 16 oz Canning Jars.

Prepare the juice as you normally would.

Pour into the 16 oz jars until they are completely full, to the very brim.

Now screw the lid down and place in the fridge.

The juice will remain very fresh because there is no air in the bottle to degrade it.  Make the juice in the day for the day.  This method enables all the juice to be made once a day for the entire day.

Water, a Healing Tool

Dara Dietz

glass-of-waterSimply stated Hydrotherapy is using water in a therapeutic way.  The power of any healing remedy is enhanced with the use of hydrotherapy.

It is important to flush the body internally with plenty of clear fresh water.  Drinking the nutritionally rich juices aid in rebuilding a sick body but they do not do the work of flushing waste from the system.  Drinking a good amount of water each day is as important to the health of the body as breathing clean air or eating healthy nourishing foods.

Using water externally to cleanse and open our skin is also an important part of healing.  Taking a detoxing herbal bath can revitalize the entire system simulating the removal of waste through the skin as well as the liver and kidneys.

Anytime there is disease or injury there is blockage.  A strong therapeutic form of hydrotherapy is commonly called doing “Hot’s and Cold’s”.  Alternating the hot and cold water over an affected area will effectively blast through blockage, allowing the body to flood the diseased or injured part with fresh nutrient rich blood.  It does no good taking in all the great healing herbs and juices if the nutrition is blocked form the injured or diseased areas of the body.

Consider you want to fire a blood bullet through to blockage around a diseased or injured area.  The Hot water loads the gun.  Use water as hot as can be tolerated.  Do not scald your skin.  Turn the water as hot as you can tolerate without injury.  With your hand wand concentrate the heat over the affected area until the skin is pink with fresh blood.  When heat is applied to the body the blood in pushed to the surface to cool the area. Fresh cooling blood in brought to the area.

NeckPainNow it is time to fire the blood bullet as deeply as possible through the blockage and into the affected area. The more dramatic the change between hot and cold the more power behind the blood forcing it deeper into the blocked up areas. This can be done in one of two ways.

1) Turn the flow of water away from the body.  Now make the water completely cold.  IT will take a few seconds for the flow to change to cold.  As soon as the water is good and cold apply the flow back over the affected area.  Allow the flow to remain for a good 60 seconds before changing back to the hot.  Do at least seven “hots” and seven “colds”.

2) Before beginning fill a bucket or tub with ice and water.   After the affected area is well heated and filled with blood plunge the area into the ice water for a good 60 seconds. Do at least seven “hots” and seven “colds”.

When healing any major disease or injury the “Hots &Colds” should be done three times a day.  Failing to do the hydrotherapy often means the body does not have the ability to heal properly or clear the disease.

The Emergency

Dara Dietz

Senior handsSeveral years ago I discovered my mother in law passed out across her bed.  The year was 1997 and she was in her early 80’s.  She’d had several strokes over the past 10 years brought on by high blood pressure.  Earlier in the day she had seemed agitated and ill tempered.  A fretful disposition would often precede an episode of elevated blood pressure.   Fearing she was working herself up to a crisis I’d kept a close eye on her throughout the morning.  After lunch her disposition had greatly improved leaving me free to get some work done.  Just before dinner I discovered her apparently unconscious, her lips and finger nails were blue tinged while her skin was all but white.

Moving quickly across the floor to her I grabbed the lobelia extract from the dresser and pressed a dropper full into her mouth.  Her shallow breathing was detectable as I exchanged the lobelia for the Cayenne extract setting close by.  The small amount of liquid lobelia had caused no problem as it was quickly absorbed into her mouth.  Within Seconds her body relaxed from the tight fetal position.

The first dropper full of Cayenne had barely had time to absorb into her mouth before her skin color returned.   Dropperful number two had just emptied into her mouth when her eyes opened.  She moved herself from the bed to her chair where she consumed her normal ½ ounce of cayenne extract followed by a swallow or two of cool water.

She appeared oriented and alert.  What would she like to do? We asked.  She wanted to go to the emergency room.  So we packed her up in the car and headed for the hospital.  She continued to talk freely during the 20 minute trip to the hospital.  Once there the doctor determined she had stroked over her speech center.  They admitted her for observation.  The doctor was not impressed with the use of Cayenne and refused to allow her any further dosing of the cayenne.

The next day we arrived during visiting hours to find her unable to form language.  She was alert and had things she would have liked to say but could not form the words to speak.  She grabbed several time at my purse where she knew I kept a bottle of Cayenne.  Since she had been hooked up to a heart monitor it was not possible for me to let her have the extract.  The doctor had been very stern that I was not to interfere with any of my herbals.

cayennepepperThey released her after 5 or 6 days with aftercare appointments for speech therapy. She had been unable to speak since the morning after she arrived at the hospital, nearly a week.

My daughter and I helped her into the back seat of the car, out of the sight of the nurses and doctors, before pulling the bottle of Cayenne from my purse.  She reached out for her dose as I handed it into the back seat.  She tossed the cayenne to the back of her mouth, followed by a few sips of water.  Within seconds her speech returned perfectly clear.  Her first words, “What is wrong with those crazy doctors?” She had no speech issues the rest of her life.  She passed in 2003 after a fall in her residence.

Bad Food = Clogged Lymphatic System

Dara Dietz

junk-food_0Maintaining a healthy body does not happen by accident.  The choices we make today will determine our quality of life tomorrow.  Continuing to fuel your body with cheap unhealthy food may not seem like a big deal when the body is young and full of vitality.   Consuming this type of food on into middle age will cause the body’s systems to weaken from malnutrition.   Early signs of aging begin to appear alongside any number of serious chronic conditions.    The body is starving for food with a stomach full of empty calories.

One of the issues that can appear is swollen enlarged lymph glands.   The more toxic the poisons and mucus materials taken into the system, the more often the glands accumulate this bad waste from the lymph system and we have glandular swellings over various parts of the body.

An impure blood stream, constipation and a generally toxic body condition cause the glands to swell up and become painful. These may be on the neck, under the armpits, groin, etc.

The first step in clearing the lymph system is to CLEAN UP THE FOOD PROGRAM.  Consume only the highest quality food from the best sources.

Use the best Herbal Supports and healing programs for clearing the Lymphatic System.

Bowel Cleansing, Liver Flushing, Kidney flushing, The Best Herbs for the lymph are: Poke Root, Parsley Leaves, Mullein leaves.

Poke Root is a powerful lymph cleansing herb and must be used in small doses only.  10 drops is a large dose.  When using start with 1 or 2 drops of the extract in an 8 ounce glass of water.   Poke Root can cause uncontrolled vomiting when over used.  Poke is a powerful herb and should be used with respect.

WHEN & HOW TO USE CAYENNE

Dara Dietz
cayennepepper

Over the years I’ve been asked to explain the uses for Cayenne.  There has been so much already written about this hot little herb so today I am going to focus on when and how to use cayenne.

STROKE: provide 1 teaspoon at the first sign of a stroke to arrest the bleeding in the brain and prevent any after effects of the stroke from setting in.  See our information sheet on Strokes for more information.

cayenne-inforevisedDownload

CHEST PAIN: 1 tsp. cayenne added to cup of hot water, I also like to add 1 tsp to 1 tablespoon of Hawthorne extract.  Swish the first swallow around in the mouth.  Allow the burn to sub-side a bit (two or three minutes) then continue drinking one sip or swallow at a time until finished.   Normally the mouth has become numb to the heat after the first swallow allowing the remainder of the tea to go down easily.

DIZZINESS OR VERTIGO: ½ to 1 tsp cayenne extract directly in the mouth.  Often when the head is faint or dizzy the taste buds are insensitive so the heat of the formula will not be evident.

Tincture dropper

BLEEDING: Flush the open wound with Liquid Cayenne; apply pressure; this will often stop even the worst bleeding.   After using Cayenne to arrest the bleeding use only natural fiber bandages.  As long as the wound can breathe the cayenne will not heat up on the outside of the body.

ULCER: 1 tsp. Cayenne 2 or 3 times a day or when there is pain.  This not only stops the pain but will clear the ulcer.  See our Ulcer information Sheet for details.

HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE: Take 1 tsp. then go find a place to lay down flat for ½ hour.  Cayenne will equalize blood pressure.  If high will bring it down, if low will raise it back up.

COUNSELING SESSIONS:  Add desired amount cayenne to juice or water (I prefer 1 tsp.) at start of session.  Cayenne makes it easier to open up emotionally allowing healing truth to flow freely.  After the session has ended consume ½ tsp Lobelia directly into the mouth, lay back and rest for 15 minutes.  The Lobelia aids in moving the raw emotional work to the subconscious levels where the work will continue to process. Using lobelia allowed me to remain alert and active; I did not experience the sleepy down time that would normally follow my heavy counseling sessions.

POOR CIRCULATION: ½ tsp Cayenne & ½ tsp Ginger in cup hot water 2 to 3 times a day.

LOW ENERGY: juice of Lemons & Limes to taste in water with maple syrup and 1 tsp Cayenne.  We call this “Hot Lemonade” Very nice energy boost and good for the kidneys.

Energy

Dara Dietz

healthy_mind_healthy_bodyPlagued with low functioning thyroid since my early teens my radar goes off anytime I hear the whispered promise of free energy.  Building, Maintaining or just finding the Energy to live what I dream; an unrestricted source of physical & emotional energy flowing through my life allowing me to get it all done with enough in reserve for the fun stuff, without destroying myself.  Finding and plugging into this source has been an ongoing quest my entire life.  I refuse to destroy my adrenals with caffeine or black tea; these bring the promise of vitality while actually robbing your adrenals of what little strength they have left.

No, only real free energy will do.  Over the years I have discovered a few excellent herbal sources which provide real usable energy.  These will not only help me sail through today but build up my systems for a better tomorrow.    My favorite, hands down is Kelp.  This stuff is great, not only did it rebuild my poorly functioning thyroid gland but I no longer have to take thyroid medication.  When I began using thyroid medication in my teens I was told it would be forever.  The doctor was wrong, after several years using a good kelp blend the doctor who checked my blood work said my thyroid was functioning within normal levels.

Superfood is another great source of quick energy.  When using 4 tablespoons two or three times a day to rebuild my system my daily energy levels shoot through the roof.  This stuff is great.  Try it you will be amazed.

Rebuilding the Adrenals is a long slow process much better to protect than to have to rebuild.  The Adrenal formula provides energy enhancing herbals allowing the adrenals a rest while providing energy to get through the day.  For more on strengthening the adrenals see the Adrenal Information Sheet.

Detoxing your life

Dara Dietz

barefeetSomeone once asked me what do I mean when I say “deal with the past”? What does it look like to process a painful childhood or history of abuse?  Choosing to deal with painful past abuses is doubtless one of the most heart rending experiences life has to offer.   That said, there is no greater reward than that of owning your whole story, wrapping your emotional arms around the brokenness that was your life, knowing you are more for having passed that way.

For me the process was accomplished while writing my story.  Emotionally combing through my past with the mind and maturity of a loving adult enabled me to see the truth of my childhood.  Retracing my past one memory at a time, viewing each player in this production that is my life I am now able to discern where my responsibility ends and the culpability of others begins.

Emotional damage occurs when lies believed break the cycle of love and trust growing in the heart. A child with no life history will accept as truth the lies about life and living embedded within the abuse they daily experience.   For this child evil is a daily companion; healing, loving truth does not exist.

How do we discover what has never been known?  Where to begin?  No one looks for emotional healing until they realize the brokenness within themselves.  The questions arise when they find themselves living a life filled with emotional pain, failed relationships, ect…  They meet happy people who seem to have it all together.  The questions begin to form; Why not me too?

This is where a good counselor can be very helpful.  They will provide a safe caring environment where you can get the answer to the questions you are just now ready to ask.  An emotionally healthy friend or counselor will also be a living example for the observant.

The time has come to question everything. Start anywhere you like, with whatever is on your heart.  Open the emotional closet, pull all the memories out into the light of day and take a good look.  What beliefs about yourself, life, or others have been accepted as truth?   Are these accepted beliefs accurate?  Don’t try to justify the past or rewrite it for the benefit of your listener.  Let it be just what it was, trust me, it will be okay.  The absolute worst episode you are holding in the very deepest, darkest, part of you, when brought to the light will lose its sting.

Truth & Trust are key to healing.  Where lies break the circle of love and trust, truth restores this circle.  Truth Restored brings love and trust in its wake.  Be a follower of the truth regardless where it may lead.  From a distance this road may look dark and uninviting.   Don’t’ be deceived; throw open the door of your soul allowing God’s healing light to flood your entire being.  His desire is to transform your biggest hurt into your greatest blessings.

Erectile Dysfunction

Dara Dietz

The phone rings, Hello HEAL Marketplace how can I help! I hear a woman’s voice in the back ground, “Tell her, you tell her what is going on.”  A man’s voice stammers uncomfortably his embarrassment apparent as he says, “My wife said I should tell you… that you would be able to help,” he begins.  Over the years several phone calls have begun this way, what comes next varies man to man but is really the same.  Erectile Dysfunction, is more than broken toys, it is often the first indication serious circulatory issue exist.    E.D. is the “canary in the cave” so to speak.

There is a very strong link between erectile dysfunction and heart disease. Several studies have shown that if a man has ED, he has a greater risk of having heart disease. For instance, in one study, 57% of men who had bypass surgery and 64% of men hospitalized for a heart attack had had ED.

Having ED can predict that a man will probably have heart disease symptoms within five years. In fact, having ED is as much a risk factor for heart disease as a history of smoking or a family history of coronary artery disease. Read More

We know the problem; the question is how to clear this naturally.  Below is a list of suggestions that have proved very effective in the past.

Clean up the food program.  This might be a good time to cut out animal products or seriously cut down on them.  An excellent DVD guide available is: “Forks over Knives”.  If you are not willing to look at or adjust your food program there is little point in going on.  The herbal aids may provide some support, while leaving the serious issues unresolved.

Begin using a daily regimen of Cayenne, Garlic, and Wheat germ oil.   These herbal supports work to clear Plaque and cholesterol.  Plaque is made up of fat, cholesterol and other substances found in the blood. Over time, the amount of plaque can increase, causing narrowing of the arteries. When this happens, it is more difficult for the blood to flow.

Make sure the Three Foundational Programs, (Bowel Cleansing, Boosting with Echinacea and Superfood) are in place.

Using the M&L Salve along with Castor oil packs over the affected area to break up congestion is often quickly helpful.  One or two drops of cayenne tincture into the castor oil as it warms will be enough to greatly increase circulation.  Don’t get too generous with the cayenne for this application.

The Application:

  • Massage the M&L Salve over the entire genital area (Penis & Scrotum), use a good amount of the salve.
  • When this is done encase the entire area with two layers of flannel soaked in warm castor oil.
  • Cover with plastic wrap.
  • Leave pack on all night.

Herbal Supports:

The Male Formula is a high-octane super-fuel. It can be used by all men who feel a need for a lift. It provides men with herbal phytochemicals that are needed to create hormones.

This formula is for men who feel they have lost their edge and their male drive. It stimulates male energy, sexual desire, will promote more frequent, harder erections and for longer durations. It will also increase sperm production.

Flush the Liver

Liver flushing is not an option.  Do an ELF at least once a week while clearing the issue.  For serious long standing issues do a full week of liver flushing once or twice a month.

Emotional Health Naturally

Dara Dietz
Dara Dietz

Emotional health is the unseen substance supporting our good sense, and providing that something “extra” when our good sense is spent.  We’ve all had those days when the only good choice left is to laugh at the mess you’ve made of today while keeping faith for a better tomorrow.  What happens when the inner strength is gone, the soul inside crumbles under the slightest provocation life has offered.  Each day becomes a series of trials to be failed in sad succession until blessed sleep frees one from reality for a few precious hours.

Are there any real answers for rebuilding our spent or broken emotional health?

Yes, I do believe there are and the hordes of antidepressants proscribed by the medical practitioners are not it.  The health of the mind and body rise and fall together.  One cannot be any healthier physically then they are mentally or rise mentally above the physical health of the body.  This is not to say someone with a birth defect or debilitating injury cannot be emotionally healthy. The health of the body and mind are all about clearing toxins from the internal systems.  The more toxic the system the poorer the health of the body, the less emotional strength to deal with life’s little frustrations.

Emotional health is realized when a healthy mind/body connection is achieved and maintained.  The mind supports the glands in their production of the system’s balancing hormones, which support a since of emotional wellbeing as well as physical health.   Toxins prevent the proper absorption of the healthy food we eat, even the highest quality extracts will be of little use if the liver is too backed up to properly utilize the nutrition provided.

An effective natural approach for emotional health issues is to make sure the elimination organs are open and functioning well, (bowel Cleansing) then embrace a good system wide detox while nourishing the mind with herbal and natural supports.  It is also important to deal with the emotional junk that caused the mental overload in the first place.  No one can untangle all the emotional issues choking the life out of their life all alone.  Find someone to talk to, an experienced guide to keep you pointed in the right direction.

Herbal Supports: One of the most important is Kelp.  The master herb for the thyroid is also food for the entire glandular system, energy in a bottle.  Energy, motivation, and desire are three important elements of any great day.  Kelp is helpful.   Superfood; when needing an emotional or physical pick-me-up four tablespoons of Superfood in a glass of juice and I’m firing on all cylinders again.  There is nothing like a powerful hit of Nutrition to clear the cobwebs, while sending usable nutrients to every cell of the body. The real grabber is its all real, no caffeine, nothing to make you feel better when you’re actually not.

My Depression Testimony by Dara Dietz

Depression for me was a deep sense of hopelessness, an unshakeable sadness that filled my waking hours.  Life had been robbed of joy by the heartless actions of those who were my heart.  Only a handful of close friends were aware that for two years, without warning, tears of hopelessness would silently fill my eyes, spill over and run down my face.  Even so anxiety never filled my heart with fear; faith in my Heavenly Father was as firm as ever, I knew my life and times were in His care.

Before sharing the herbal program I used it needs to be understood how important the services of a qualified Christian Psychologist are.  During this difficult period I was fortunate to find my own wonderful counselor.  I determined from the beginning to be as honest as possible, to listen and learn about myself through the eyes of this person.

Just as we have physical blockage that must be cleared before we can heal our bodies, so it is with emotional blockage.  Believing a lie will not only prevent you from embracing the truth but the lie will block the free flow of emotionally vitality in the life.  Learning to Love me and forgive myself was the first step in my emotional healing.

Please believe me when I say, “There is no truth that cannot be faced squarely when you face it with a trusted Counselor or friend and the Heavenly Father on your side.”

Once faced and understood, you can own life’s most painful moments.  They no longer own you.  Learn from them and grow through them, this is how emotional giants are born.  They rise up from the wreckage of life’s most painful moments, decide to face their responsibilities and by the grace of God ascend above it all.

The Herbal Supports I used

There are many effective herbal remedies that will aid in clearing the toxins from the mind enabling emotional healing to happen.  Below are the herbals I used.

These herbs should be taken six (6) days a week:

  • 1 oz Each Day Echinacea*
  • 2 Olive Leaf Capsules 3 times a day (East Park: d-lenolate caps)
  • 1 tsp St John’s Wort 3 times a day. (or Antidepressant Formula 1tablespoon 3 x a day)

*Echinacea: Boosts the immune system enabling it to process the die-off created by the other two cleansing herbs being used in this program.
