Good Frequency is Easy, Good Form is Not

Frequent Elimination is Easy. Good Form (the thing that matters!) is Not!

For many years, books that comment on the importance of proper elimination, and products that claim to help with it, have focused entirely on the frequency of your bowels.

Millions of dollars worth of colon cleansing, colon health, and bowel health products have been sold with the false assurance to you that they are helping make your bowel healthier, and helping you eliminate more toxins (acids).

Because no on ever told you that the form of your stools determines how many acids are being eliminated, not frequency, you have bought into these products –that immediately improve your frequency but NOT your form—and you have bought into the idea that good form should be just as easy to attain as good frequency.

It is 1,000x more difficult and complicated to have good form to your stools than it is to have good frequency of elimination. Yet good frequency without good form is not healing, or helpful, to your health!

So, if you have had experience with these other colon products—that always contain some type of irritant to the bowel like senna, cascara, aloe, prunes, or psyllium—and noticed an immediate increase in your frequency of elimination, be careful you do not expect the same result as you heal your bowel with Bowel Strength, or as you improve the form with bentonite. And while in the short run it takes longer to heal your bowel and improve the form, in the long run, your health and weight will be 1,000 times better if you do. In other words, while you may like the” quick fix” of immediate increased frequency of elimination with these other products, you will not like the fact that decades after using these, your health and weight will be the same, or worse, while using them!!!!

Please review Chapter 6 of my book, This Works, Crutches Don’t (available through www.ThisWorksCrutchesDont.com and your local bookstore), for a more complete explanation of the ideal form of your stools and a for a greater understanding of why form, not frequency, heals and leads you to permanent weight stabilization.

The Quick and Easy Answer...

The Quick and Easy Answer…

When you are feeling bad, all you want is for that feeling to go away—quickly, and easily. I understand. Remember, I’ve been in these shoes.

Hence, many of you like to blame the Bowel Strength for causing your discomfort, because you really want to believe that you can stop it and all of your problems will quickly and magically disappear! Sometimes you forget that you were feeling bad for a long time prior to using this product (so what did you blame then???).

Ironically, if you live in fear of this product, your life will be more fearful as a result! If you do not heal your bowel with this product, you will spend your shortened life living in fear--over what you eat, stress, old age, disease, etc….

So let me help make this simple, and less scary, for you. In 99% of the clients I work with, the Bowel Strength is not too strong, and therefore does not cause any symptoms, for at least the first year of use. If you have not used it for at least this long and you feel bad, the odds are extremely low that you will feel better if you stop it (so don’t!)

On the contrary, if you are feeling bad, the chances are very high (99% likely) that the cause of this discomfort is that “rain is hitting your roof that has holes in it and your house is getting wet as a result.” In other words your blood has become too acidic and because your bowel is not healthy enough to eliminate these acids, you are feeling bad. Now, if you keep healing your unhealthy bowel, then, and only then will you be able to eliminate your “feeling bad” days!

I know you don’t want to believe that stress, too much fruit, too much alcohol, too much eating out, not enough sleep, your massages, your trip to the dentist, your travelling, your over-consumption of Girl Scout cookies, your lack of water, the fumes from your new paint job, or your new 2 hour a day exercise program are causing you to feel bad. I know you want to blame the Bowel Strength instead, but you can’t do this if you are going to fulfill your maximum health and weight potential. You are looking for the quick and easy answer to your problems, and while there is one (your unhealthy bowel), it cannot be quickly and easily fixed! It can be fixed, however, and you need to focus on that….

If you have been taking Bowel Strength for longer than one year and you are feeling bad and want to blame this product, call or email me so we can schedule a visit so I can help you determine if you are blaming the right thing. The difference between success and failure with this program surely lies in one’s blaming the right thing when one has problems. I have a lot of experience with this program and can make sure you are on the right track. It will be well worth your time and expense to do so. We are talking about the quantity and quality of your life, by the way! What is more important than that? (Of course, this information applies to acidophilus and probiotics as well…)

For more information on using this product correctly so that one day you can look and feel great without the need for crutches, please read Chapter 7 of This Works Crutches Don’t. If you have not already purchased this book, it can be ordered from my website at www.ThisWorksCrutchesDont.com (or from Amazon, Borders, Barnes and Noble, etc).

The Latest Miracle Nutrient--Vitamin D

The Latest Miracle Nutrient—Vitamin D

I review nutritional studies that are published in medical and scientific journals every week. For the last 4-6 months, the majority of these have focused on the “wonders” of vitamin D (and many of you have been led to believe that the addition of it to your diet will markedly improve your life and protect you from disease.)

Vitamins do not prevent disease—scientific studies have proven they don’t—rather, they are crutches that treat symptoms, and you have all been wrongly and dangerously led to believe that if you have few symptoms, it means you are healthy and will live a long time.

It may concern some of you at times that I do not follow in the footsteps of all of the “miracle vitamin D” recommendations and make the same to you, but you should not be concerned. On the contrary…

The concerns I have about the vitamin D mania are as follows. One, while vitamin D is a crutch like all others; this crutch is not necessarily a safe one! Vitamins A, D, and E are fat-soluble, which means that you can retain excess amounts in your fat cells, and they can accumulate to toxic levels. None of the crutches that I recommend can do this! (By the way, of the many studies I have read about the wonders of this vitamin, none have been long-term, which means the long-term consequences of these recommendations have not been observed, either.)

Two, your kidneys produce calcitriol—the active form of vitamin D—when they are healthy. So, rather than take a lot of this fat-soluble vitamin, you would be much healthier, and safer, healing your kidneys. And by the way, “most people don’t learn about kidney problems until it’s too late, because most kidney disease don’t produce symptoms, says Leslie Spry, M.D., of the National Kidney Foundation. “Symptoms don’t appear until 60 to 70 percent of kidney function is lost.” (Chronic kidney disease has become more prevalent in the last 10 years, which is largely the result of our higher consumption of protein during this time.) Of course, when you heal your bowel, you heal your kidneys too…

You also get vitamin D from sunshine. Sun does not cause skin cancer—it is merely a trigger. Your skin is an organ and like all others, the more acidic it is, the more likely you are to damage this organ and get skin cancer! Of course, when you heal your bowel, you heal your skin, too…

When your kidneys and skin are healthy, your vitamin D levels will be healthy, too. If you take vitamin D and do not heal these organs with this program, you can dangerously think you are healthier than you really are. If your vitamin D levels are low due to unhealthy kidneys and skin, you are vulnerable to an earlier disease (like cancer and heart disease), as these organs “at the bottom of your pipe” protect your organs at the “top of your pipe”—like your heart and cells (so you don’t have a heart attack or die from cancer…) So, when you do this program you not only get healthy kidneys and skin and therefore ideal levels of vitamin D without supplements, but you create organs that protect your heart and cells. Supplementation with vitamin D alone does not and cannot offer you the same protection.

Ultimately, the harm of using this vitamin D crutch is consistent with the harm of using any crutch, as discussed in Chapter 4 of This Works, Crutches Don’t. Still, if you choose to take this vitamin while you are healing your bowel and body that is fine. Just remember, when your bowel and body are healthy, you will have sufficient levels of vitamin D in your body without the need of ingesting extra in supplement form.
