HEALTH ALERT: Internal Bathing Benefits (c) By Polly Guerin

It’s party time and the holidays mean that most of us over indulge in eating and drinking libations far more than we usually do, which puts stress on our bodies and minds. When relief is sought from eating excesses perhaps it is time to de-tox and do some internal cleansing. As Edgar Cayce said, “For every one---everybody—should take an internal bath occasionally as well as an external one. They would all be better off if they would. (440-2) There may not be any miracle cure, but a good cleansing routine will do wonders to rejuvenate and restore one’s enjoyment of the season.
APPLE CLEANSING PROGRAM
An apple a day may keep the doctor away, but the apple cleansing regime is an easy way to start a therapeutic program right now or even after the holidays. Cayce advised: “We would use first the apple diet to purify the system; that is, for three days eat nothing but raw apples of the Jonathan variety. The Jonathan is usually grown farther north than the Delicious, but these are the same variety, but eat some. You may drink coffee if you desire, but do not put milk or cream in it, especially, while you are taking the apples. At the end of the third day, the next morning take about two tablespoonful of Olive Oil. (780-12)
A MIRACLE THERAPY
The “Edgar Cayce Handbook for Health Through Drugless Therapy” cautions that although the apple cleansing regime is recommended to cleanse all toxic forces from your system, like any other holistic program anyone who decides to try it should first check with their doctor. Consulting a Caycean trained physician first is especially important if you simply cannot handle eating apples, and another regime may be recommended. However, since most people are toxic, a good cleansing routine is the first step toward improving your healthy outlook. If you are in reasonably good health, the detoxification will bring about an almost euphoric feeling of well-being and provide an inexpensive and effective insurance against disease. The most important element about the apple regime is that the apples should be “organic’ and free of chemicals.
INTERNAL CLEANSING BENEFITS
Internal cleansing plays a vital role in general health and well being, in longevity, beauty and sexual vigor and just the sheer joy of living alert and physically rejuvenated. However, the apple regime is not the only factor in the cleansing and therapeutic process. You must be determined and consistent and not break the regime for a mere three days of apple intake and watch how the detoxification makes your eyes become much brighter and your skin take on a fresh glow.

HEALTHY NATURALS and NUTTY SOLUTIONS (C) By Polly Guerin

As the saying goes, “You are what you eat.” Edgar Cayce, the great American prophet preferred natural food over man-made sources of vitamins. In the book, "The Edgar Cayce Handbook for Health," Cayce occasionally did prescribe extra vitamins in certain cases but he warned that these should not be continued indefinitely. He also advised that we opt out of eating frozen food and taking supplements and instead purchase vegetables and fruits “in season.” Fresh food markets have cropped up all over the city and the foods represented in these markets come from local farmers when fruits and vegetables are at their peak of freshness and nutritional value. Cayce further advised that you have at least one meal each day that includes a quantity of raw vegetables, such as cabbage, lettuce, celery, carrots and onions. Tomatoes he said, “May be used in their season.”

A GOOD CUP OF COFFEE

Americans love drinking coffee. I for one cannot begin the day without a cup of fresh percolated coffee. If you’re like me one or two cups in the morning will satisfy my devotion to coffee. However, Cayce felt strongly about coffee, which he suggested was a food when taken alone, but should never be taken with milk or cream and sugar, since the milk transforms itself into leathery curd blocking the digestive process. He said, “If coffee is taken, do not take milk in same. If tea is taken, do not take milk in same. This is hard on the digestion. (5097-1)

AN ALMOND A DAY

Cayce was also enthusiastic about almonds, and so am I. He said, “If an almond is taken each day and kept up, you’ll never have accumulations of tumors or such conditions through the body. An almond a day is much more in accord with keeping the doctor away, especially from certain types of doctors, than the apple. For the apples was the fall, not the almond—for the almond blossomed when everything else died. Remember all this is life! (3180-3) He further recommended that those who would eat two or three almonds each day need never fear cancer. And those who would take a peanut oil rub each week need never fear arthritis. (1158-31).

BEWARE OF FRIED FOODS

Cayce was strongly opposed to fried foods and excessive consumption of fats. He warned, “Beware of all fried foods, No fried potatoes, fried meats, fried steaks, fried fish, or anything of that nature.” (926-1) He suggested that you consider steam pressure for cooking food quickly because it rather preserves than destroys precious vitamins. Chicken or fish would be better steam cooked as well.
