Be your own doctor, heal at homeIntroduction to the Get Well, Stay Well program

By Dr. Reuben T. DeHaan

The 5-step Get Well, Stay Well Program was designed to help the body regain its natural ability to heal and produce healthy cells that self-heal rather than reproduce the same diseased ones. We all know that diet plays an important role in health, but real life is too hectic, busy or emotional to eat nutritious foods all the time. Besides, people who eat really healthy diets get sick and develop disease too, it just takes longer. Depletion of the soil and genetic manipulation make it very hard to find honest-to-goodness healthy foods even if you wanted them. Don’t misunderstand, diet and exercise are important, but diet is no longer the primary factor in disease. Nutritional balance & removal of toxins is. Since the key factors in health are nutritional support and toxin elimination, the GWSW Program was created to fill the gaps that may be missing in your Diet & Lifestyle. Notice that I didn’t say toxin avoidance. That is impossible. We are exposed to toxins in the foods

we eat, the things we drink, our environment, medications, vaccinations, other people and even dental work, not to mention what we inherit from our parents. Toxins accumulate in the tissues of the body and eventually inhibit normal function of cells. This allows for symptoms, disease, aging, hormone problems, lack of energy and anything else you can think. As you might guess, these toxins also inhibit the body from making the new, healthy cells we seek. Cells can only reproduce a copy of what they have on hand, and most of us have a large amount of toxic poisons accumulated in our body. Thousands of successful cases have demonstrated that removal of accumulated toxins works even when other programs have failed. When you remove the toxins and supply fundamental nutrients, the body is put in a position where it can heal itself, just as God intended. The miracle was created is in each of us but it must be activated. Are you willing to do what it takes to activate your miracle?

The body is a living organism with a specific use for each of its many parts. Medicating and/or removing body parts just do not seem like the best answers to the ques-tion of how to improve health. Many people aren’t will-ing to risk the side effects, complications and possible death that medication and surgery produce.

Do you know that more money is spent out of pocket on alternative therapies and supplements every year than is spent on medical insurance? More people have turned to alternatives in an effort to remain healthy and counter-act today’s many symptoms and diseases. People are looking for alternatives that will not only prevent disease and relieve symptoms, but also reverse diseases that have already taken hold in the body.

Unfortunately, keeping up with the latest nutritional research is time consuming and confusing, and the research and data are often manipulated by the highest

bidder. Part of the problem is that most companies make “a” particular product for “a” particular symptom rather than trying to resolve the cause of the symptom. In addition, the sale of supplements is such a big money maker that companies with little integrity or desire to produce quality are selling them just to cash in on the market demand. Natural symptom relief is certainly better than relying on most drugs and surgery, but why chase symptoms if the cause can be corrected? If you correct the cause, the symptoms will disappear, right? When you eliminate the causative factors, the body is once again able to heal itself. This means that the body, on its own, is able to eliminate disease, increase energy, boost the immune system and even live longer. Doctors don’t heal you; the body heals itself. Each person is born with that healing potential. But how do you activate it?

According to medical science, the human body completely renews itself every seven years!Three hundred-million cells die in the body every minute. This is how the cornea replaces itself every 24 hours, the skin every 14 days, the blood cells every 90 days, the soft tissue every six months, and the dense tissue every two to seven years. If the entire body is continually creating new cells, why do we still have symptoms? Why are we aging, and why don’t we have more energy? Why doesn’t the body just make new, healthy cells (instead of diseased ones) every time cells reproduce?

The regenerative properties of our cells indicate there is never an excuse for illness, only a lack of understanding how to achieve wellness. The Get Well, Stay Well Program was designed to help the body regain the ability to heal and produce healthy cells that self-heal rather than the same diseased ones. We know that diet plays an important role in health, but real life is too hectic, busy or emotional to eat nutritious foods all the time. Besides, people who eat healthy diets get sick and develop disease too. Don’t misunderstand. Diet and lifestyle are foundational to health and wellness, particularly in prevention. But depletion of the soil and genetic manipulation make it very hard to find genuinely healthy foods. Add pesticides, herbicides, chemical fertilizers, radiation and the many other toxins that have become part of the modern world, and you may conclude that food is no longer the primary factor in health.

One of the primary keys to achieving health in the modern world is toxin elimination. Notice that I didn’t say toxin avoidance. That is impossible. We are exposed to toxins in the foods we eat, the things we drink, our air/environment, medications, vaccinations, other people and even dental work, not to mention what we inherit from our parents! It is impossible to avoid all sources of toxins. These toxins gradually accumulate in the tissues of the body and eventually inhibit the normal function of cells. This dysfunction eventually causes disease, aging, hormone problems, lack of energy and every health complaint. As you might guess, these toxins also inhibit the body from making the new, healthy cells we seek. Cells can only reproduce a copy of what they have on hand, and most of us have a large amount of toxic poisons accumulated in our body.

Thousand of successful cases have shown that nutritional support and removal of accumulated toxins work even when other programs have failed. But this is impossible if we don’t have good intestinal health. The intestines must function

properly for nutrition to be utilized, and they must function properly for toxin elimination to occur. The miracle of healing is not restricted to a religious experience or the next hyped supplement. It is achieved by following the basic principles of wellness.

SUMMARIZED REQUIREMENTS FOR GETTING WELL AND STAYING WELL:

BASIC REQUIREMENTS: Nutrition, Digestion, Elimination, Cleansing, Detoxification

THE FOUNDATION: A healthy diet and lifestyle, including plenty of pure water and exercise

PREVENTION: Monitor your pH levels. The body must remain alkaline to heal and to remain well.

NATURAL SYMPTOM RELIEF: see attachment. ALKALINITY: Keeping the mouth alkaline will

prevent tooth and gum related issues; rinse the mouth with soapy water or baking soda mixed in water after brushing teeth to keep the mouth alkaline.

VACCINATIONS: Immunizations and flu shots add extreme amounts of toxins to the body.

"WHY?" SHOULD ALWAYS BE THE QUESTIONIf a nail in your driveway keeps giving your car a flat tire, do you keep buying new tires or remove the nail? The nail is "why" you were getting the flat tire. The GWSW Program helps your body eliminate the “why” of your symptom or disease. If you deal with "why" you have symptoms, you won't have to keep patching the problem with medication, surgery or supplement programs. The following pages include all the information you will need to overcome your health challenges and become living proof that THERE IS NO INCURABLE ILLNESS!

SPECIALTY PRODUCTSFOR THE GET WELL, STAY WELL PROGRAM

SUPPLY NUTRITION

Health Care Ministry International There is no incurable illness!

Live long enough to fulfill your destiny! www.HCMIonline.com

Each of the following products has specific properties which your body will need to achieve your miracle. Because most of us don’t eat a truly healthy diet, we produced the following supplements to fill the gaps. Read the description of each and use the products that fill the lack you may have in your diet or lifestyle.

1STEP

• Super Nutrient produces energy by supplying every supplemental nutrient needed to build healthy cells.• Provides great amounts of B vitamins to keep the nerves happy and help the body deal with everyday stresses.• Supports the immune system by providing plant-based protein needed to create natural antibodies. • Super Nutrient is beneficial for those who need energy, don’t eat healthy diets or generally lack a sense of well being.• If you feel the need to over eat, or eat too often, it is a sign that your body still lacks nutrition and is asking for more.• A good nutritional program will keep the body from developing genetic pre-dispositions. Genetics don’t cause

disease. Inadequate nutrition and accumulated toxins cause disease. Suggested Use: Use one scoop of Super Nutrient in four ounces of water or natural, unsweetened juice (apple or cherry is good.) Chase it with eight ounces of water. Take it at the time of day that initiates the best results (morning, afternoon, evening).

2STEP DIGEST YOUR NUTRITION

Enzymes are required to convert food into chemical compounds that give the body energy. Enzymes used every day will provide the body with the ability to utilize the nutrition attained from any food and/or supplement being ingested. Enzymes are also a key component in fighting free radicals that cause wrinkles and aging. Carry Digestive Aid with you throughout the day in your purse or pocket because enzymes work best when supplied with your meal. If you forget to take them with you, take them when you get home. Enzymes are especially needed with your largest meal and with meals that contain foods deficient in enzymes. This includes any food that is cooked, particularly meats, dairy, fried foods and processed foods. You may want to take extra DA with meals that include these foods.

Nutrients are the tools needed to create healthy cells and strong DNA. Science tells us that a pregnant woman needs nutrition to form a healthy baby, so it is only logical that nutritional balance would be required to maintain health. Nutrition is the most basic element of health, yet most diets are either lacking in balanced nutrition or many of the essential nutrients are destroyed in cooking/preparation. Super Nutrient is created from whole plants, which contain all the nutritional ingredients needed to maintain or build health. Super Nutrient used at least one time every day will provide the body with every nutritional element needed to maintain health or achieve wellness. If you are using Super Nutrient and still feel you are nutritionally deficient in some way, be sure to use the other steps of the program as the cause is not deficiency alone, but an inability to use the nutrition you are taking in.

3STEP

This is probably the most important product in the GWSW program. Bowel Stimulant will keep the body’s primary elimination channels open by stimulating natural movement of the large intestine and bile excretion from the liver/gallbladder. The body should eliminate at least one time for each meal eaten. That is normal elimination. Anything less is constipation. The more bowel movements you have, the better, as long as you do not have diarrhea. Most people should take at least one Bowel Stimulant (BS) with their evening meal, even if they think they are “regular,” to keep toxins and poisons from accumulating. Do not use Bowel Stimulant if the bowels are already loose; use Super Nutrient. Bowel Stimulant is an all natural, herbal formula that does not create dependency.

STIMULATE ELIMINATION

• Medical studies have shown that by age 50, the average person has accumulated 50 pounds of sludge in the intestine. The more waste you accumulate in the intestine, the larger your belly and waistline will become, which makes you lose your figure.

• If poisons and toxins are not eliminated “regularly” (about once per meal) the body becomes a host for all of today’s diseases.

• Signs that elimination is deficient: skin problems, belly larger than chest, heart burn/acid reflux, memory problems.Suggested Use: Start by taking one Bowel Stimulant with your evening meal. Increase by one capsule each evening until the bowels are moving as many times as possible without causing diarrhea. Regulate the amount you take each evening to maintain regularity the next day without producing diarrhea. If your bowels get too runny, reduce the amount you take or add IC-2. NOTE: BS may cause intestinal cramping when you first start taking it because it stimulates the movement of internal muscles that may be out of shape. Cramping is no more harmful than doing push-ups and feeling sore the next day because you are not used to using the muscles. As your internal muscles develop tone, you will no longer cramp.

• Digestive Aid promotes health in all of the digestive organs (stomach, small intestine, pancreas, gallbladder and liver).• Is especially beneficial for those who are too busy to eat daily portions of fresh, raw vegetables and fruits. • The body uses enzymes to break down cysts, growths and tumors that can become serious threats if left unattended. • Signs of enzyme weakness: Crow’s feet, longitudinal lines on the fingernails, teeth imprints around edge of tongue, brain

fog.• If you do not have a well-defined line where your lips meet your face, you have a history of enzyme (raw food) deficiency.

Suggested Use: Take one or two capsules of Digestive Aid with your food. You may take more as needed with meals that include meat, fried foods, processed foods or foods which do not agree with you (cause indigestion, mucus build-up, throat clearing, etc).

4STEP CLEANSE THE BODY

Fiber is the body’s natural cleanser. It cleans and scrubs the intestines and also absorbs or deactivates bad fats such as cholesterol. A truly healthy body would require 95 percent of the diet to be plant-based fiber (attained from raw vegetables, fruits and some whole grains). Most of us don’t come anywhere near this ratio, so IC-1 was created to supply the body with the fiber and properties needed to cleanse waste material naturally. Typically, we’ve accumulated so much waste during the years that it becomes hardened in the intestines. IC-2 was created to help remove that old accumulation—called linings. It has been said that if the intestines never accumulated excessive waste material, we would never become sick or diseased. IC-2 gets the old stuff out; IC-1 keeps it out!

• If your belly is larger than your chest, you have an excess of accumulated waste in your intestines (use with BS, Step 3).• Motion sickness indicates you need more fiber (IC-1); nausea and stomach problems generally indicate the need for IC-2.• If you have trouble with cholesterol, triglycerides, fat, or any kind of artery or heart disease, you need to alternate IC-1 and IC-2.

Suggested Use of IC-1: Use one scoop daily in water or four ounces of unsweetened juice (apple or cherry is good). Chase it with eight ounces of water. If you experience cramping, it indicates that the internal muscles are now starting to exercise. This is a good thing.Suggested Use of IC-2: To keep the body free of compacted waste, use eight capsules daily for seven days, then stop for one or two weeks. Consider using the additional cleansing options listed in the following pages to enhance the action of your program. NOTE: These products may cause intestinal cramping when you first start because they stimulate the movement of internal muscles that may be out of shape. Cramping is no more harmful than doing push-ups and feeling sore the next day because you are not used to using those particular muscles. IC-2 is much more effective when combined with Bowel Stimulant and Super Nutrient.

5STEP DETOXIFY THE BODY

While the previous steps of the GWSW Program set the stage for wellness, the human body is currently exposed to a variety of toxins with which it was not designed to deal. These toxin categories accumulate in the body and eventually reach levels that cause all of today’s pain, sickness and disease. Toxin categories include: chemical toxins, food origin toxins, environmental toxins, cosmetic toxins, medication/narcotic toxins, metal toxins, injected toxins, pathogens, arthropod toxins, structural/surgical toxins, electromagnetic toxins, emotional toxins, and inherited toxins. If you have any health challenges, or desire to maintain health, the toxin accumulation must be identified and eliminated. This is one of the most important facets to overcoming disease.

Unfortunately, each of us has a unique combination of toxin accumulation, so it is very difficult to create over-the-counter formulas that can achieve true detoxification. Some toxins are simply too deep in the tissues, or originate from a source that requires a stronger approach than a supplement program can provide. When pre-made formulas did not produce the intended results, an evaluation system called Total Body Analysis (TBA) was created. The TBA system allows the practitioner to identify the exact toxins accumulated in the body, or those toxins inhibiting cellular regeneration. Your TBA practitioner is trained to find the toxins that have accumulated in your body and make a custom detoxification remedy to begin the correction process. Elimination of these toxins is what allows the body to achieve its God-given miracle to heal. When the toxins are removed, the body is able to make new healthy cells rather than the same diseased duplicates. Think of it in terms of a wound with a splinter. You can take pain pills, antibiotics or even natural supplements every day, but if you don’t remove the splinter from the wound, the body will not be able to heal. Because of their ability to address the cause rather than the symptom alone, TBA Programs have a track record of working where other programs have failed. The evaluation process is non-invasive, yet ex-tremely accurate. Contact your local Certified TBA Practitioner and complete the final step of your Get Well, Stay Well Program at: http://www.hcmionline.com/consulting/local_practitioners.htm.

If you are not able to see a TBA Practitioner, begin

cleansing at home.

BRING “CLINIC” THERAPIES TO THE PRIVACY OF YOUR OWN HOMEThe human body is exposed to more than 100,000 toxins, and three new toxins are being “approved” every day! The IC-1, IC-2 and Bowel Stimulant each work to encourage healthy elimination, but the body’s elimi-nation channels were not designed to process that kind of assault. There simply isn’t any magic pill or easy supplement that can match the effectiveness of good old-fashioned cleansing techniques. A specific cleansing regimen has been created that you can do in the privacy of your home, at your convenience. Be your own therapist and maximize your health program today by incorporating these cleansing therapies.Please review these steps @ http://www.hcmionline.com/gwsw/additional_cleansing_therapies.htm

LIQUID DETOXThis special liquid dissolves chemicals of all kinds by breaking the chemical bonds into non-harmful molecules. Two or three drops in any beverage, hot or cold, will neutralize chemicals, microbes or harmful agents which might be in it. You don’t have to buy water or purchase expensive filtering units; five drops will purify up to one gallon of water*. Therapeutically, 10 drops placed directly in the mouth at least once each day will help the body detoxify chemicals, especially if they are in the blood or lymphatic system. Chemicals are in everything. It is impossible to avoid them all. We suggest therapeutic doses to help eliminate any accumulations coming from toothpaste, additives, preservatives, deodorant, soap, shampoo, and many other daily exposures. It also works wonders when used topically on insect bites, cuts and bruises, or any skin blemish. If you’re not sure what to do, use Liquid Detox!

*Well or spring water is the best water to use for drinking; just add a few drops of Liquid Detox to purify it. Bought water isn’t pure.

There is no incurable disease, just a lack of understanding how to initiate the body’s true healing potential.

Page 5: Get Well Stay Well Program

SUMMARY POINTS OF A HEALTHY DIET & LIFESTYLEWhat you eat today will dictate the amount of health you have tomorrow.

BEVERAGES• Make water your primary beverage (drink half your body

weight in ounces.) Well or spring water with two to five drops of Liquid Detox/gal provides the best cellular charge of H20.

• Place two to five drops of Liquid Detox in every beverage you drink and allow it to breath for three minutes. This will assure there are no harmful toxins in your drink. Treat all beverages to neutralize toxins.

• Rice milk, almond milk, and cashew milk are the best, but raw (fresh) goat milk and soy milk are acceptable to put in hot beverages, cooked food or in your cereal.

• Avoid carbonated beverages, cow’s milk, alcoholic beverages and drinks with caffeine or sugar added to them. These all disrupt the normal pH of the intestines, which results in disease.

SWEETENERS • White sugar is as harmful to the body as most drugs. White

sugar (often listed as high fructose corn syrup) is in just about every food there is! Check labels and try to avoid it. NOTE: Certain sugar replacements may be lower in fat, carbs, or glycemic content, but they generally have more chemicals than regular sugar. Artificial sweeteners of all kinds feed disease in one way or another. Check those labels! Use molasses, dark maple syrup, local honey or real cane sugar for sweeteners. Use Stevia with caution.

FOOD • Fresh vegetables (organic if possible) should make up at least

50 percent of your diet; the more varieties you use, the better. Eat your vegetables raw or lightly steamed, but don’t steam them longer than three minutes.

• Dark green vegetables, beans, legumes, non-GMO tofu, whey, kefir and yogurt should be the primary source of protein in your diet—not meat and certainly not dairy products. A few raw nuts are good too.

• If you are going to eat meat, eat Biblically “clean” meats (a list can be found in Book #1). As a rule, try to eat no more than four ounces of meat per meal, three to four times/week. Try to find range-fed animals for your meat to avoid the harmful hormones and steroids.

• It is better to eat many small meals during the day rather than one or two large meals. Your largest meal should not be dinner so that you don’t go to bed on a full stomach.

• Avoid processed or manufactured foods filled with chemicals, additives or preservatives (junk food). As a rule of thumb, if you can’t pronounce something in the ingredient list or it has numbers or hyphens in it, the item is a toxic additive or preservative.

• Be sure to eat slowly, concentrate on your food and chew each bite 20 to40 times, especially meats and proteins.

• Don’t eat unless you are hungry and never overeat. Don’t stuff. Eating should be fun; don’t eat if you are upset.

• Look for organic. The words “All Natural” mean good marketing skills, not healthy. If an item is not certified organic, assume it has chemicals and poisons in it.

• Pray for your food while it’s in front of you.

SNACKS• Snacks and desserts tend to be our unhealthiest foods,

primarily out of habit. Find healthy snacks at your local health food store and keep them around so you don't eat junk. Yes, get your chocolate without the chemicals and additives. Organic yogurt, raw nuts and seeds, organic baked chips (non-GMO), fresh fruits, carrot sticks, etc. Try these snacks: www.pulseparty.com/135348

• If you eat nuts and seeds, try to find them raw, unsalted and unroasted and chew them thoroughly!

COOKING & BAKING• The best ways to cook healthy are to bake, roast, steam, boil,

oven-broil, poach, stew and simmer.• Do not microwave—ever! Avoid frying and don’t grill with

charcoal. Propane (gas) or real wood is best for grilling. • If eating meat, cook “well-done.” At least “medium-well.”• Use whole grains (preferably milled at the time of use) and

the suggested sweeteners to make your breads and pastries—not refined flours and white sugar.

• Use unsalted, real butter and uncooked, extra-virgin olive oil for spreads and salad dressings. Organic eggs are good.

• Season with herbs, spices, lemon, garlic, onions (nature’s herbs and foods). Try Bragg’s Liquid Aminos.

• Table salt is very harmful to the body unless you use a natural, mineral-rich salt. I recommend Celtic Sea Salt, in which case you can eat all you want with no negative consequences. It should be grey in color and comes in crystals, which are generally wet and need drying. You can grind fresh over your plate with a small salt or pepper grinder.

EXERCISE, FUN & REST• Increase your heart rate and sweat in some type of aerobic

exercise for at least 20 minutes, three to four times each week.

• If you cannot exercise because of injury or disability, use the Chi Machine or a mini-trampoline at least 10 to 20 minutes each day. http://www.chinow.com/dehaan

• Fun is essential to health. Have fun at least one day each week. Make sure you are enjoying the outdoors as much as possible. Don’t stay in airtight buildings all the time.

• The body needs one day of rest starting each Friday p.m.• The body regenerates when asleep. Every minute of sleep

before midnight is worth four minutes of sleep after midnight.

MISC• Purify the indoor air you breathe with an Eco Quest ozone

unit or an equivalent unit that re-ionizes the air and increases oxygen content. www.ecoquestintl.com

• Consider using natural cleaning products around the house and for your laundry (Botanical Gold is our favorite.) www.symmetrydirect.com/cdehaan

• Use natural deodorant, toothpaste, make-up and other cosmetics to reduce your exposure to toxins—the skin absorbs everything it comes into contact with.

• Get an evaluation with your local TBA Practitioner found at: http://www.hcmionline.com/consulting/local_practitioners.htm.

No matter which of the many diets you choose to follow, the suggested points listed on this page apply. Success of your health program is in part linked to the investment you make each day in your diet and lifestyle habits. Listed in order of importance ....

Page 6: Get Well Stay Well Program

What is pH?PH is the abbreviation for potential hydrogen. The pH of any solution is the measure of its hydrogen-ion concentration. A higher concentration (pH reading) means the fluid is more alkaline and oxygen rich. A lower concentration of hydrogen ions means the fluid is more acidic and oxygen deprived. Complete healing of chronic illness can only take place when tissue is restored to a slightly alkaline pH. Tissue pH is re-flected externally through urine and saliva. The pH range is from 0 to 14, with 7.0 being neutral. Anything above 7.0 is alkaline; anything below 7.0 is acidic.

Importance of pHScientists have discovered that the body fluids of healthy peo-ple are alkaline (high pH), whereas the body fluids of sick people are acidic (low pH). If you have a symptom, disease or health concern on any level, you are probably too acidic. If the cause of the acidity is not identified and corrected, the health condition will continue to escalate until it reaches a chronic level. If cells are maintained in a severely acid envi-ronment, organ failure and death will eventually result. No matter what type of modality you use to take care of your health problem, it won’t be effective if it does not change the pH level to slightly alkaline. Remaining acidic will decrease the body's ability to absorb vitamins, minerals and other nutri-ents, decrease the energy production in the cells, decrease the body’s ability to repair damaged cells, decrease its ability to detoxify and increase tumor cell production. You can pay a lot of money for a good alternative health panel of blood, urine, saliva and hair analysis. Or you can be your own doctor and get a very good idea of whether your body is moving toward health or disease with pH testing.

How to test pHTesting the pH of the urine or the saliva is done in the same way. You can purchase a roll of pH paper, also known as lit-mus paper (found at most health food stores). You can also purchase pH stix, which are easier to use and read. To test pH, you will need a pH stix or about an inch of pH paper from your roll. To test saliva, pool a little saliva on or under your tongue and dip half of your pH paper (or stix) in it. Wet thor-oughly and compare the color immediately with the color chart that came with your stix or pH paper. To test urine, cap-ture some urine in a clean container. A paper cup generally works well. Dip your pH stix or half of the piece you tore from the pH roll into the urine and compare immediately with the color chart.

Salivary pH = healing/regeneration potentialSalivary pH is most useful for monitoring how well the body is breaking down the foods being eaten. If the intestines are not able to digest and absorb food, they will not extract nutri-tion from the food. If your intestines cannot process nutrition, how well you eat or how many supplements you take will not matter. You will be unable to rebuild healthy tissue. To check the overall health of the intestine, test the saliva first thing in

the morning -- before using the bathroom, brushing teeth, drinking water, smoking or even thinking about food. Optimal salivary pH is 6.4 to 6.8 first thing in the morning. If your morning pH is not in range, begin testing your salivary pH two hours after each meal. This will give you an idea of the acidity or alkalinity of your last meal. Use this information to assist you in finding foods and diets that are healthy (alka-line). Optimal pH for saliva immediately after eating can be as high as 8.5, but should drop down to 7.0 – 7.2 two hours after the meal.

Urine pH = ability to remove waste; detoxification potentialUrine can provide a fairly accurate picture of body chemistry. If the body is able to keep a healthy balance of chemistry, all building, detoxification and regeneration functions will be in order, allowing the body to do its job in an efficient manner. The most effective urine is the second morning’s urine be-cause the first contains a concentration of acids from sitting in the bladder for an extended period of time. Ideal range of sec-ond morning urine is 5.8 to 6.8.

Keeping pH in a healthy rangeIf you begin to study pH, you find that most health writers speak in terms of mineral reserves. If the pH numbers are not in range, some form of supplement is recommended, generally calcium or magnesium. Before you invest money in supplements that may not correct the cause, consider this: There is a general guideline of what foods produce alkalinity and what foods produce acidity. That list can be found at:

http://www.hcmionline.com/gwsw/acid_alkaline_food_list.htm. If you have a moderately healthy diet and the intestines are kept in working order (digestion and elimination), the body will easily extract the ions needed to keep all mineral levels in balance. Even if you don’t have a diet rich in calcium, per se, the body uses something called transmutation to convert other elements in the body into calcium if that is what the body needs. The key is a healthy digestive/intestinal system. This is one of the main reasons that our supplement line is focused on health of the intestine rather than products for every health complaint. In addition to alkaline food intake and intestinal health, dehydration is an important factor in keeping pH balanced. Make sure you are drinking plenty of clean, fresh water each day. (Liquid Detox assures it is clean and pure.)

Warning signs of acidityCommon signs of being too acidic are receding gums and gingivitis. These signs evidence that the body is losing bone mass. Yes, the mouth reflects the health of the bones. The body will “borrow” calcium from the bones to buffer acids from the diet and to fight hidden infections. When enough bone mass has been lost in the jaw, the gums will recede and the teeth become loose. It is at this point that bacteria can get under the gums causing what’s known as gingivitis. Unfortunately, dentists do not understand this downward progression and are unable to offer their patients real answers. But you know better. You can do something about it!

Reason #1: Supplement requirements are overratedMost alternative-minded practitioners and patients think of

illness and disease in terms of deficiency. If there is a problem in the body, there must be a deficiency of some chemical element commonly known as a nutrient. Those who think in terms of nutrition are continually trying to find the “key” nutrient that will supply the needed element and allow the body to heal. The leading authorities promote this kind of thinking, so articles, magazines, media and general educational material is written along that concept. There is nothing wrong with the general idea of “deficiency,” but that concept is not entirely accurate. If it were, specific nutrients would be able to consistently treat and reverse specific ailments. The fact that one nutritional supplement or program will work for one person with a disease and not for the second person with the same disease indicates that there is a variable beyond basic deficiency. Because people don’t understand this inconsistency, they continue to look for the next magical nutrient.

Reason #2: Most supplements lack an effective moleculeOur research has found that the body’s DNA is hard-wired

with all the nutritional information needed. The body does not become depleted in a specific nutrient as much as it reaches a status where it is no longer able to access certain nutrients. Each nutrient consists of two parts: a physical molecule and a micro (1)current that makes that molecule effective in the body. Molecules without current are about as effective as a light bulb without electricity. The bulb is there, but it is not going to be of any use without current. The effective component of any nutrient, food or supplement is the micro current. If the current is missing, you are essentially just taking fillers. This principle does not apply to supplements alone. If the healthy foods you eat don’t have current, you aren’t getting anything out of them. Cooking and processing destroy the currents in food, reducing or totally destroying the nutritional value. In addition, foods are picked green, they are sprayed with chemicals and fertilizers, and enzyme blockers are placed in them so they won’t rot so quickly. This makes the majority of today's food of little or no value to the body. Now you may be asking why bother eating healthy at all! Healthy food may not supply all the nutrition you previously thought, but the healthier it is (particularly organic), the safer it is in terms of chemicals, herbicides, pesticides and other added toxins. You may also be thinking that the deficiency in food is exactly why supplements are so important. But supplements available in today's market also consist of molecules without current. Neither the label nor the claims make a product effective---only the current in the molecules.

Reason #3: The body doesn’t need all those supplementsThe second principle at work is something called

transmutation. This is the conversion of one element into another. As an example, every cell in the body must retain a specific sodium/potassium ratio. Sodium must enter the cell and potassium must exit the cell. This is called the sodium/potassium pump. Sodium is physically incapable of entering the cell, yet it is continually being excreted from the cell. Where does it come from? The body converts the sodium that enters the cell into potassium in the process called transmutation. The process of transmutation shows that you do not need to take every supplement to remain balanced—just the basics. The body will do the rest.

Reason #4: All you need are the true fundamentalsIt all really boils down to the intestines. Researchers

frequently seem to imply that achieving health requires an understanding of complex cellular activity. But that’s just science trying to complicate something that was created to be simple. When you take anything in, be it food or a supplement, the body must first digest it, then absorb it, then metabolize it. Digestion begins with lots of chewing and mixing with saliva. When you swallow, it drops into a pool of digestive juices in the stomach. These juices break the particles of food down into pieces small enough to differentiate required nutrition from waste material that will be passed on through. When the juices have finished acting on the food particles, it is all passed on to the small intestine. Almost 30 feet in length, the small intestine absorbs those nutritional particles (along with chemicals and toxins if you chose your meal poorly) into the bloodstream. The blood stream delivers the nutrients extracted from the food to cells that will further absorb them and burn them for energy. This is called metabolism. On a technical level it can be explained in a more complex way, but that is basically all there is to it. With a healthy meal, the body will use only 5 percent of the food. The rest is converted to waste material that requires elimination. Similarly, you can take the best quality, high dollar supplements from the most remote virgin soil around the world, but if your body can’t process them in one of the levels mentioned, you have achieved nothing. For that reason, we have created a basic nutritional supplement made from the world’s most nutrient-rich foods. In addition, we have found that products designed to keep the intestines cleansed and healthy are the most important, the fundaments. Keep in mind that GWSW product ingredients include combinations of whole herbs, which are loaded with every nutrient known to man. If you supply the fundamentals, the body will use transmutation to cover the rest. Keep it simple sweetie – KISS.

WHY DON’T WE OFFER A WIDER VARITY OF PRODUCTS?

(1) Each nutrient consists of two parts: a physical molecule and a micro current that makes that molecule effective in the body. Most foods and supplements available in today’s market consist of molecules without current. The label says the item is in there, but the substance is of little use to the body. HCMI imprints the contents of each product with a series of very specific electromagnetic signatures. This assures that you get not only the listed ingredients, but also the essential part of each nutrient—the micro current. This causes a certain percentage of each product to be absorbed because current does not require digestion or assimilation.

Page 8: Get Well Stay Well Program

Is there a starting program or do I need all the products at one time to achieve results?Each product has its specific purpose. If you incorporate the standards of alternative care and consider that bowel cleansing is the first element required to achieve health, Super Nutrient, Bowel Stimulant and IC-2 become the three most important products to start with. But you can take them all if you need. Read the description for each product and see if it sounds like something you need. Keep in mind that a healthier diet/lifestyle requires fewer products be-cause you will be supplying nutrition and fiber in your diet.

How strict do I really have to be with my Diet?There is no pressure. You can be as strict or as relaxed as you desire. We understand that most people can’t “eat healthy” all the time. We call that real life. GWSW was designed to help people in real life. However, that does not condone a lack of discipline. The fact remains that the worse your diet and lifestyle, the more difficult it will be for your body to heal, rejuvenate and achieve the healing miracle you seek. A balance must be achieved, depending upon how severe or chronic your problem is and how much you desire your healing miracle. The more chronic you are, the stricter you should be in taking the products, following the recommended diet and lifestyle, and doing the cleansing therapies. If this sounds like too much, remember that it isn’t forever. Be strict for a given time so your body can regenerate. You need to find moderation that incorporates as many health principles as possible. Don’t add stress and guilt to bad dietary habits. Take one step at a time. That is real life.

Should I expect any negative side effects?Any good intestinal cleanse promotes movement of the intestinal muscles, and this can cause gas and cramps. Cramps are generally caused by the Bowel Stimulant or Intestinal Cleanser #1. If you cramp, you are likely dehydrated. Bowel Stimulant and IC-1 are designed to initiate natural muscle contractions in the intestine. If the muscles are not toned, they will feel sore when exercised, which is what the product is doing. If you get cramps, place a hot pack on your belly and cramps should pass quickly. They may fade on their own. Either way, you should adjust in a few days.

Will any of the products give me diarrhea?Taking too many Bowel Stimulants can cause diarrhea. Simply cut down on the amount you are taking. The goal is to take as many as possible without getting diarrhea. If one pill gets you no where and two gives you diarrhea, try one in the morning and one in the evening.

What if I am taking the products and my bowels still aren’t moving once for each meal that I eat?Take more Bowel Stimulant or more Intestinal Cleanser! One bowel movement at some point after each meal is best. If you get all your movements in the morning, take some of the Bowel Stimulant in the morning and use more of the Intestinal Cleanser so your movements are spread throughout the day. Everyone responds differently, so you may need to experiment to find the right combination for you.

Will I feel worse before I get better? Feeling bad is generally caused by toxin overload in the channels of elimination. This is called a “healing crisis.” It means you are successfully moving the toxins out of the body although it feels like something is wrong. It means the body was asked to do something for which it was not prepared. If it occurs and you keep up the program, it should pass as the toxins slowly move out. Remember that toxins are better out than in. The best thing to do is help the toxins get out. Because elimination of toxins is critical to wellness and the key to the Program, consider use of the home therapies.

Is there any other supplement I should take? The cause of your health concerns has undoubtedly been accumulating or festering for some time, so it may take a little time for it to be corrected. How well you do with your diet and lifestyle will greatly influence the amount of time it takes to see or feel the wellness you seek. Most people have supplements from a previous program, but the GWSW Program contains everything your body requires. If another supplement you have is helping your symptoms in some notable way, then continue to take it. However, we hope that with a little time, the GWSW Program will correct the cause so you don’t have to keep patching up symptoms with a variety of supplements.

I thought vitamins and minerals were important?Yes, your body needs a balanced, absorbable form of vitamins and minerals. Super Nutrient and a moderate diet supply all that your body requires. Fifty years ago, nutritional deficiency was a primary consideration. With the amount of toxic elements the body is now exposed to, nutrition is not deficient as much as it becomes unavailable because of the accumulated toxins in the body. (See Step 5)

Does the GWSW Program work for any problem?If you consider that all health concerns have a cause and that cause is related to one of the five steps mentioned, then it stands to reason that incorporating those steps into your lifestyle should allow the body to regain its ability to heal and rejuvenate, no matter what the health challenge. Of course, the Program is designed to get all body parts working again—to activate your body’s God-given ability to heal itself. That miracle is built into each person, but it must be activated. (If you have had surgeries performed and parts removed, healing may take longer because other parts of the body must work overtime to take up the slack for the parts that are missing.)

What if the GWSW Program does not work for me?If the program is not working to your satisfaction and you are sure you are following all steps suggested, this may mean that you have toxins imbedded deep in your tissues and the product and diet alone are not enough to eliminate them. It is essential that you contact your local Certified TBA Practitioner (Step 5). A TBA Practitioner is trained to non-invasively evaluate your body for the toxins that are causing the problem and are able to make custom detoxification remedies to eliminate those causes.

WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU ARE GETTING SICK

Summary Points To Get You Back Up And Running Without Using Medications or Vaccines1. NO GUILT: Don’t dwell on the mistakes you made that allowed you to get sick. Take a moment to realize you allowed your body to get too weak to fight off the common germs. Now take steps to get better. Adding guilt to the equation will only make you sicker and prolong the illness. Take time to do something that makes you happy, something that makes you laugh a bunch.2. FAST: When you start to get sick, fast. Starve a fever, starve a cold, starve everything! The body uses energy to digest and eliminate waste and toxins. By not eating, you are allowing the body to direct all its energy to cleaning up the mess that made you sick in the first place. Pure water with fresh lemon and dark maple syrup or Grandma's molasses is excellent. If you must have something more, cook vegetables and drink the broth, or eat fresh, ripe fruits (not chicken soup). For heaven's sake, don't eat junk food, meat or dairy. They cost the body a lot of precious energy. Sugar feeds infection, and dairy creates more mucus.3. REST or EXERCISE: Believe it or not, the body is sick because it is tired and waste has backed up. Give it a break if at all possible. *Although it may sound contradictory, some people need to exercise when they get sick. These are people with tendencies toward lymphatic congestion. If your lymphatic system is congested (generally because you lack exercise on a regular basis, perhaps because of a sedentary job) and you sit or lie around when sick, your body will take longer to process the toxins. Movement encourages the lymphatic system to move and flush. You will know if you need exercise rather than rest if you can go for a walk when sick and it does not wipe you out. If it does, rest. If it makes you feel better, do it again as able.4. KILL THE VIRUS: Most fevers come from viral activity initiated by such toxins as staph, strep and pneumonia, which is what your medical doctor will tend to find. Most of these viruses reproduce in the ear or the throat. "The first thing to do is put about five drops of hydrogen peroxide in one ear and lie with your head down, allowing the hydrogen peroxide to bubble in the ear for about four minutes. Then flip over and do the other ear. The 3% hydrogen peroxide you find at the drug store is all you need. Repeat that one to three times each day if you start to feel a cold or flu coming on, and continue each day

until you think you have it fixed. To deactivate the virus in the throat, gargle with a tablespoon of 3 percent hydrogen peroxide several times each day. Although the peroxide is not toxic in small amounts, we still recommend that you spit it out after gargling, but don’t rinse your mouth with anything for a few minutes. If your throat hurts, suck on zinc lozenges throughout the day. They are available at health food stores.5. HELP A FEVER: A fever is the body's natural mechanism for killing what caused the fever. To stop the fever is to stop the body’s natural immune process. People fear fevers, but there is little to fear about the average fever. Unless a fever starts getting above 104 degrees, there is really nothing to worry about. It takes a fever of 106 degrees to do any damage, and even at that temperature it is not harmful if you keep the head and brain cool with cold cloths. During the fever process, the body uses up its stores of iron. A teaspoon of Grandma's molasses in warm water at least three times each day can restore the iron depletion and increase your energy. Because a fever is part of the cure, if you want to help the body heal faster, you can create an artificial fever by increasing the body's temperature to help it fight off the germs. Take a hot bath with a minimum of one tablespoon of Liquid Detox in the water. Sit in the water for 10 to 20 minutes. If you feel weak, have someone with you so you don't pass out and hurt yourself. You may want some cold towels handy for your head if you start getting too hot or feel light headed. If you are feeling weak, drink the molasses water. When you get out of the tub, stay nice and warm, dry off, and wrap up in something that will keep you warm. Rest quietly or go to sleep. Let your body finish the job.6. SUPPLEMENTS: Keeping the intestines happy and healthy is essential to getting well and staying well. Keep taking Super Nutrient to ensure that your body is getting the required nutrition to heal. Use IC-1 as directed to keep the intestines moving happily and removing waste that might have accumulated in the intestine. Add a couple of IC-2 capsules and a couple of Digestive Aid capsules three times each day as well.7. SYMPTOM RELIEF: If you have the Symptom Kit, feel free to make a remedy and take it every 10 to 15 minutes as needed. Symptom remedies or TBA remedies will help the body’s natural ability to fight off the cause of the illness.

Many things can contribute to sickness: not eating a healthy diet, not getting enough exercise, not resting enough, not drinking enough water, not keeping up with normal bowel movements, spending too many hours at work, and participating in stressful relationships. Any combination of these will take the body to a point where it is no longer able to have normal immune response. When the immune system can't keep up, we feel run down, or get a cold or the flu. Most of us are not aware of this reduced immune function, so the illness becomes our wake-up call. Sickness is the body's way of telling you to pay attention, help it out, and that it can't keep up with the pace you are setting for it. Your lifestyle, dietary habits, emotional distress or exposure to toxic agents at your work place have left your body vulnerable and weak. Listen to your body and help it. Don’t stop the process by killing a fever or suppressing a runny nose.
