Freeing Brain and Body of Toxins

From [MM page 259] : We are constantly exposed to many poisonous substances: heavy

metals, air pollution, pharmaceuticals, chemicals sprayed on anything manufactured,

pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides, plastics, industrial cleaners, petroleum, dioxins, etc. They

saturate our water reservoirs and fall down from the sky. These toxins are the primary triggers

for our current epidemics of cancer and many other illnesses.

Lower Fat Consumption while in any detox protocol/plan

From [TH page 160]: Why low fat? Fat thickens the blood and slows down detoxification,

hampering the rate at which toxins such as heavy metals can leave your body. Also, high fats in

the bloodstream lower oxygen in the bloodstream, and oxygen is critical for fighting any viral

condition that may be causing your ailments.

From [Souls & Body Detox Secrets show – minute ~12]: Adrenaline (in all forms) is damaging, it

is the number one drug now on planet Earth, and it is the number one toxin (more poisonous

than the stuff falling out from the sky, in the oceans, and the stuff sprayed on foods). Other

toxins don’t hold a candle compared to what one does when flooding the body with adrenaline,

because it is so corrosive –like battery acid- that it breaks down the body and stops the person

from detoxing.

Heavy Metals

From [MM page 242] : Toxic heavy metals are poisonous, and if they begin to oxidize, their

chemical run-off will mutate and damage whatever cells are nearby, but the biggest issue is

that they are prime food for bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites, and worms. Mercury, aluminum,

cadmium, nickel, and lead, accumulate in the liver, gallbladder, and/or intestines, sink down

and settle serving as feeding ground for Strep A and B, E.coli (and its many strains), C.difficile,

H-Pylori, and viruses. The byproduct when pathogens consume these toxic metals is a

neurotoxic gas that attaches to the ammonia and travels through the intestinal lining (the

ammonia permeability makes it possible).

To remove heavy metals from the intestinal tract: Cilantro, parsley, zeolite, spirulina, garlic,

sage, L-glutamine, plantain leaf, and red clover blossom, together with an effort to keep fats

down in the diet.

Mercury: It gets passed on from generation along from generation to generation. We need to

be aware of every possible situation that could bring us harm and to question everything that

could enter our bodies. Mercury doesn’t go away unless one takes specific steps to detoxify it.

General Heavy Metal Detox

“There is almost nothing better you can do for your health than to get heavy metals out of your

body.” The best and more effective way to remove heavy metals from the body is to consume

the following five items every day:

1. Barley grass juice extract powder: Draws them out of spleen, intestinal tract, pancreas,

and reproductive system.

2. Spirulina (preferably from Hawaii): draws them out of the brain, CNS, and liver and

absorbs the heavy metals extracted by the barley grass juice extract powder.

3. Cilantro: goes deep into hard-to-reach places extracting metals from yesteryear.

4. Wild blueberries: draw heavy metals out of the brain, and heal and repair any gap

created when the heavy metal was removed.

5. Atlantic dulse: binds to mercury, lead, aluminum, copper, cadmium, and nickel, and

crosses the blood-brain barrier and goes into deep, hidden places of the body seeking

out mercury and never releasing it until it leaves the body.

The heavy metal detox smoothie adds bananas and orange juice as taste as well as nutritional enhancers, to the five basic components listed above that detox metals from the body in a perfectly coordinated team-work.

http://www.medicalmedium.com/blog/heavy-metal-detox-smoothie

Foods: Cilantro (which binds onto toxic heavy metals, when taken with L-glutamine, boosts

metal detoxification); Bladder wrack (removes heavy metals from the intestinal tract); Apples

(have traces of rutin & quercetin for heavy metal detox), berries, dates (bind to and sweep

away heavy metals in the gut), figs (skins get rid of, including in the intestinal crevices and

pockets), grapes (draw out of liver, spleen, kidneys, and other organs), melons (help the body’s

detox of traces of heavy metals from deep within the organs), oranges & tangerines (their

combined glutathione, flavonoids, and limonoids deactivate them in the system), asparagus

(their chlorophyll bounded to glutamine, threonine, and serine provides an avenue for detox of

these); Dulse (pulls out deep mercury in tissues); Garlic (helps eliminate lead and other heavy

metals from the body); Onions (their sulfur compounds can safely remove mercury, cadmium,

arsenic, and lead from the body); Parsley (removes high levels of copper and aluminum); Plums

(remove toxic arsenic from the body); Self heal tea (pulls them out of the body); Spirulina

(removes mercury and toxic copper from the liver, reproductive system, intestinal tract,

thyroid, and brain); Sweet potatoes (their phytochelatins bind to heavy metals such as lead,

mercury, copper, & cadmium and safely remove them through the body); Wild blueberries

(extract them from the brain and liver, and their unique antioxidants repair the damage done in

brain, CNS, liver , and thyroid)

Water Pollution

In this modern era our water supply is continually being polluted. It is best to buy a top quality

filter to remove heavy metals, chlorine, and fluoride from it. Fluoride is a neurotoxin. RO

processes remove essential minerals from the water (life can be returned to it by adding to it

the squeeze of a lemon). Read added substances to bottled water and also look for BPA-free

containers.

Anti-chlorine/ anti-fluoride tea: One tablespoon of equal parts of blackberry leaf, raspberry

leaf, hibiscus flower, and rose hips per cup of hot water, to remove these toxins from organs

and entire body.

Foods: Cauliflower and seaweed (together they expel chlorine, fluoride from endocrine glands)

Pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides

Exposure via conventional produce (make sure to wash them well or opt for organic if possible)

Parks and public areas are heavily sprayed with these.

Anti-Pesticide/ anti-herbicide/ anti-fungicide tea: One tablespoon of equal parts of burdock

root, red clover, lemon verbena, and ginger per cup of hot water, to remove these toxins from

deeply stored places in the body.

Foods: Figs (purge the liver from pesticides and other toxins); Parsley (helps remove pesticides

from the brain); cranberries (their phytoestrogen compounds disarm environmental pollutants,

pesticides, & synthetic chemicals, contain enzymes that specifically detoxify organs), grapes

(their histidine, methionine, & cysteine together with anthocyanins draw DDT from liver,

kidneys, spleen, and other organs); melons (highly active fluids help the body’s detox of traces

of DDT and other pesticides, and herbicides from deep within the organs), Nettle leaf (rids the

body of toxic estrogens that have entered from outside sources: plastics and pesticides), Pears

(their trace minerals and amino acids lock onto poisons in the body like DDT expelling them),

Pomegranates (detoxify DDT and other pesticides), Onions (due to sulfur compounds, rid the

body from DDT, other pesticides, and herbicides); Aloe vera (flushes toxins out of the

bloodstream and body helping to purge the liver of pesticides); Pears (purge the liver of

pesticides.

Plastics

Exposure from food and drink containers, wraps, etc. Some are very disruptive of hormonal

system, feed cancers, viruses, and bacteria.

Anti-plastics tea: One tablespoon of equal parts of fenugreek, mullein leaf, olive leaf, and

lemon balm per cup of hot water, to rid your body of plastic and plastic byproducts.

Foods: Cranberries (their phytoestrogen compounds disarm invading estrogens-like plastics);

Lemons & limes (purge toxic substances collected from plastics); Nettle leaf (rids the body of

toxic estrogens that have entered from outside sources: plastics and pesticides); Sesame tahini

(is rich in phytoestrogens that battle the bad estrogens from plastics and foods), Black beans

(are rich in good phytoestrogens to get rid of the bad ones in the body)

Cleaners/Solvents

Exposure to carpet cleaners, paint solvents, wood stains and sealants, dry cleaners chemicals,

formaldehyde in new clothing, wrinkle free substances, etc.

Anti-cleaning solvents tea: One tablespoon of equal parts of calendula, chamomile, bladder

wrack, and borage per cup of hot water, to minimize the effect of solvent exposure and to

remove from your body any of these stored chemicals.

Radiation

Exposure from nuclear plant release (several recent accidents), medical and dentist X-rays,

radiation treatments, mammograms, scanning devices, etc.

Anti-radiation tea: One tablespoon of equal parts of Atlantic kelp, Atlantic dulse, dandelion

leaf, and nettle leaf per cup of hot water, for an antidote to radiation exposure.

Foods: Apples (contain phytochemicals that help eliminate by binding to radioactive residues);

Milk thistle (potent detoxifying herb protects the liver from the effects of); Reishi (protects the

body from R damage); Shiitake mushrooms (their 1,3 beta-glucan and lentinan lessen side

effects of); Spirulina (reduces effects of radiation sickness); Sunflower seeds (their pectin

content has the ability to bind to radioactive residues and remove them safely from the body);

Wild blueberries, apples, cherries (phytochemical compounds amazing for removing),

cranberries (their compounds draw it out of the body), figs (high in B vitamins specifically

bonded to phytochemicals to reduce radiation in the body), avocados, aloe water, grapes (expel

from the body), kiwis (phenolic acid compounds in seeds together with powerful vitamin C

bonded to isothiocyanates and anthocyanins, remove radiation from the body) , cauliflower,

Atlantic sea vegetables (especially dulse and kelp), lemons & limes (purge toxic substances

collected from radiation), oranges & tangerines (their combined glutathione, flavonoids, and

limonoids protect the body from radiation damage), artichokes (remarkable for protecting from

all types of) , cruciferous vegetables (pull out radiation from thyroid that got there from dental

or medical X-rays), Cauliflower and seaweed (together they expel radiation from endocrine

glands), Onions (due to sulfur compounds rid the body of this type of exposure); Aloe vera

(draws radiation out of the thyroid); Radishes (remove radiation from thyroid)

MSG

[From TH]: This common ingredient goes straight to the brain, where it derails electrical activity

with toxins and co-toxins that burn out brain tissue. And once MSG is in the brain, it stays there

(unless you break it down and pull it out with detoxification techniques), creating long-term

problems. That’s because MSG is a neuron antagonist. It sticks to neurons and makes them

electrically hypersensitive, so that when an electrical impulse moves through the neuron, it

burns hotter, which causes an erratic, disproportionate reaction. A neuron with this fuel-like

coating of MSG eventually burns out. It can create rapid thoughts, a sense of itchiness, difficulty

calming the mind, and the feeling of being obsessed about something.

MSG toxicity in the brain can come out with mineral salts (can draw that out) if your mineral

salts are always running (hydration). If mineral salts are low you won’t be able to pull MSG out.

Cilantro (which binds onto toxic heavy metals and MSG, when taken with L-glutamine, boosts

MSG removal and metal detoxification); Mangoes combined with L-glutamine heighten the

absorption of the supplement reducing MSG toxicity by disarming it; Wild blueberries pull MSG

and heavy metals from the brain; Parsley (helps remove pesticides and MSG from the brain);

Apples (contain glutamine and serine that detoxify the brain from MSG)

Neurotoxins

Epstein-Barr Viral Bi-Product Toxic Type: a) Waste (or viral byproduct form ingestion of toxic heavy metals, excess adrenaline, eggs, etc.

if from large quantities of viral cells can gum up the mitral valve and create heart palpitations).

b) Viral corpses (dead viral cells with casings are also toxic and accumulate in liver & lymphatic

system creating sluggishness, contributing to fatigue, weight gain, constipation, bloating, heart

flutters, brain fog, and so called menopause symptoms)

c) Neurotoxins (poisons that disrupt nerve function) which come out as part of the filmy

byproduct sludge. They result from ingestion and re-processing of a) and b) with increasing

toxicity that can damage and kill off healthy cells in organs and connective tissue. With further

re-processing cycle, they can do more damage to cells and irritate and inflame nerves.

The virus produces them at strategic times of Stage 3, while always during Stage 4, to prevent

the immune system from zeroing in on the virus cells and attacking them;

d) Dermatoxins: similar process like neurotoxins, but when the virus feeds off deposits of

copper and DDT in the liver. Sluggish and dysfunctional liver and lymphatic system have

problem filtering them and they escape through the skin.

Note: Neurotoxins and dermatoxins can remain in virus’ corpses and seep out over time. The

types of toxins are described by MM for EB-V in particular, but he has mentioned in different

shows that the Herpes family of viruses is characteristic for production of neurotoxins (toxins

that irritate nerves and impair nerve function), and in particular the shingles virus as a variety in

the herpes family that can also produce dermatoxins.

Foods: Aloe vera water (flushes neurotoxins from the liver, bloodstream, and body), Cilantro

(binds onto EB-V neurotoxins); Garlic (helps flush toxic viral and bacterial waste out of the

lymphatic system); Honeysuckle (potent detoxifier known to swiftly remove poisons and heat

from the body). Kale (its glucosinolates detox the body at a genetic level); Leafy greens

(excellent to purify cells, tissues, and organs); Lemons (cleanse and detoxify the entire body);

Mangoes (purge lymphatic system from EB-V neurotoxins); Mizuna (its glucosinolates detox

cells, tissues, and organs); Sweet potatoes (help cleanse and detox the liver from viral

byproduct and toxins)

From [LCF]: Melons (bind to viral neurotoxins flushing them out)

From [MM]: Wild blueberries (flush neurotoxins out from the liver); Avocados (their natural

form of glucose calms sensitive nerves throughout the body that have been irritated by

neurotoxins); Cucumbers (flush EB-V neurotoxins out of the bloodstream); Dates (help to purge

the liver of EB-V waste debris); Maple syrup (has dozens of trace minerals that fortify the brain

and CNS protecting them from heavy metal oxidation and neurotoxin damage); Papayas

(restore CNS from neurotoxin damage); Sweet potatoes (help cleanse and detox the liver from

EB-V toxins and byproduct)

From [TH]: Artichokes (their isothiocynate subgroups help detox the liver of neurotoxins,

dermatoxins, and all Unforgiving Four factors)

More Detox Methods

Lemon Water

One lemon squeezed in a 32 oz of water on an empty stomach at waking up is a highly effective

way to detoxify the body (especially for cleansing the liver which works all night long gathering

and purging toxins from the body). The lemon activates the water making it better able to latch

onto toxins and flush them out. After drinking the water give the liver half an hour to clean up,

and then eat breakfast. Make this a routine to see improvement over time.

For an extra boost add a teaspoon of raw honey, and a teaspoon of freshly grounded ginger to

the lemon water. The liver will draw in the glucose from the honey to restore its reserves at the

same time it purges deep toxins to make room.

Aloe Vera Juice

Scoop out the clear gel from a 4 inch section of an aloe leaf, and use it in smoothie or eat as-is,

to detox liver and intestinal tract.

Juice Fasting

A “one day fast” when nothing but juices. The juices should consist as base of celery, cucumber

and apples. A bit of spinach or cilantro may be added for variety. 16 to 20 oz juices should be

drank one every two hours.

Consume nothing in between except for water – preferably a 16 oz glass one hour after the

juice. This plan should result in a total of 6 juices and 6 glasses of water during the entire day.

For first timers, be aware that this detox brings out many poisons, which may make one feel

uncomfortable, so be ready to lie down and rest. If wanting to expand it to a two-day juice fast,

make sure you plan to stay home at least the second day.

This fast/detox allows to achieve impressive detox results if you do one every two weeks.

Water Fasting

This detox calls for exclusively 16 oz glasses of water every hour, starting at waking up and until

one goes to bed. The plan gives the digestive system a full day of vacation, since there is

nothing to be processed. The body will then expel toxins that it normally doesn’t have the

chance to deal with.

Perform this fast at home. Be aware that it could bring dips in energy or strong emotions, so

don’t hesitate to lie down and rest or sleep.

If finding this fast/detox productive, doing it once a month for three months can give amazing

results.

Rebounding

Use a mini-trampoline to gently jump up and down for about 10 minutes per day to forcefully

promote circulation throughout the lymphatic system, helping detoxify the entire body and

especially the liver.

Infrared Sauna

Infrared light deeply penetrates the body through the skin, increasing blood flow and

oxygenation of the blood, removal of toxins from the skin, elimination of aches and pains, and

boosting the immune system.

Use it for 15-20 minute sessions twice per week. Doing it right should give immediate change

for the better after each session.

Massage

A quality 45-minute full body massage will promote circulation throughout the body and

especially from the liver. It will boost adrenal glands and kidneys, relax the heart and ease

tension.

The 28-Day Healing Cleanse

The deal is: For four weeks eat only raw fruits and vegetables.

In other words, consume raw (preferably organic) fruits and vegetables, with an emphasis on

keeping fat intake low. Limit salt intake, too— only add a sprinkle of Himalayan salt to a dish as

needed. Stay hydrated with plenty of water, coconut water, herbal tea, and/ or fresh juice.

Why raw? In their raw state these healing foods contain the highest level of nutrients of any

foods, and in the form most readily available to the body. Their vitamins, minerals,

microorganisms, and other nutrients will help cleanse and strengthen every system. The body

processes uncooked fruits and vegetables quickly and easily (they contain live enzymes which

make digestion smoother).

Why eat only these? When the body is not busy processing heavy fats and proteins,

additives and allergens, it frees hours every day to rebuild itself on a cellular level. While meat,

fish, grains, and starchy veggies can have nutrients, they can also be tough for the body to

break down.

Basic ideas behind the daily meal structure:

Time of the Day Types of Foods

Early Morning

Start the day with a cleansing beverage to maximize the detox work performed by the liver overnight. Options:

o Celery juice o Cucumber juice o Lemon water

o Coconut water + spirulina o Herbal tea o Reconstituted barley grass juice

Breakfast

Make a fruit smoothie with plenty of fruit additions (papayas, pears, mangoes, etc.) and greens (spinach, kale, cilantro, celery) to the following baseline recipe: 3 bananas, 2 dates, 1 cup of berries. But make sure fruit remains the main ingredient.

Mid-Morning Make another fruit smoothie with plenty of fruit, or a second serving of the breakfast one.

Lunch

A large salad with spinach, lettuce, and cucumbers as the base, and toss in fruits of your choice (berries, grapes, chunks of papayas, mangoes, oranges, grapefruits, etc.). May use ½ avocado and cilantro for dressing. Other veggies can be added: cauliflower, cabbage, baby kale, celery, arugula, sprouts, scallions.

Mid-Afternoon Snack on fruits of your choice (apples, grapes, dates, oranges, pears) accompanied with a few celery sticks. Spoonful of raw honey can also help.

Dinner Another salad or veggies blended in a soup (example spinach, tomatoes, garlic, orange, celery, cilantro). Or a raw salsa on top of cucumber or zucchini or carrot noodles

Evening If hungry, snack on an apple and a date.

For a more powerful cleanse try a week with no avocado or fats.

If less rate of cleanse is desired (too intense detox symptoms are being experienced) increase

some fats (like avocadoes, and some nuts)

For even less intense detox, swap the raw veggie dinner with a meal of steamed or roasted

(with a little coconut oil) vegetables such as potatoes, yams, squash, broccoli, cauliflower,

asparagus.

90-Day Thyroid Rehab

This cleanse is a critical approach to killing off EB-V, restoring your body, and repairing your

thyroid that can be incorporated into any lifestyle. For 90 consecutive days and within each

new month, pick which of the three 30-day plans to follow based on your individual needs,

resources, and schedule.

Starting with Choice A, moving on to Choice B, and finishing up with Choice C, gives a gradual

natural progression. On the other hand, if you are desperate to see dramatic changes in your

health, you may like repeating Choice C to fill all 90 days or beyond.

Celery juice

Celery juice is a cornerstone of each choice— straight, unadulterated celery juice with nothing

added or mixed in. It is alkalizing, enzyme-rich, electrolyte-enhancing, DNA-repairing, blood

sugar– balancing, antiseptic, and more, this tonic is a “simple” step toward health that’s not to

be overlooked. 16 ounces to be taken on an empty stomach once per day. If you’re sensitive

and 16 ounces is too much, start with a smaller amount and work your way up.

Don’t be discouraged if it takes you a year or a year and a half to heal. Don’t lose faith. Healing will

begin immediately, even if your symptoms are still with you for a while. Recovery simply takes time if

the thyroid virus has been active in your system for many years, or if it’s a variety that has caused

you particularly difficult symptoms. Know that I see you. Hang in there. The reward— getting your life

back— is worth it.

Choice A : Liver, lymphatic, and gut release month

The goal: To give you liver, lymphatic, and digestive support while the protocol goes after EBV

and gives your thyroid a break. Celery juice is the ultimate tool for building up your hydrochloric

acid so that unproductive acids caused by bad bacteria stay at bay. It is also disinfectant with

antiviral properties, killing off EBV throughout the body, as well as antibacterial to EBV’s

cofactor strep. Hydration is also key here: The fresh juices and waters in the list below provide

living water and trace mineral salts that revive your cells and help cleanse your liver and

lymphatic system of EBV and its waste matter.

What to add: The following tonics are ones to add to your normal life, working them in around

meals and snacks. You’re not meant to get through each day on these liquids alone. Make sure

you fuel yourself with enough food in between so that you don’t go hungry.

Every morning, drink roughly 16 ounces of fresh plain celery juice on an empty stomach.

Wait at least 15 minutes after drinking it before consuming anything else.

Sip roughly 16 ounces of lemon or lime water at midday or in early afternoon. Squeeze

the juice from one half of a lemon or lime per 16 ounces of water.

Sip another 16 ounces of lemon or lime water in the late afternoon.

Every evening, drink roughly 16 ounces of aloe water or cucumber juice.

What to AVOID: eggs, dairy (including milk, cream, yogurt, cheese, kefir, and ghee), gluten,

canola, corn, soy, and pork.

----------------------------------------------

Choice B: Heavy metal detox month

The goal: This month you’ll get all the benefits of the Liver, Lymphatic, and Gut Release Month,

you’ll add in ginger’s antispasmodic and antiviral support, plus you’ll get to extract those toxic

heavy metals from your body that are some of EBV’s favorite fuels.

The heavy metal detox smoothie consists of adding for great taste bananas and orange juice to

the basic 5 components that detox metals from the body: barley grass juice extract powder,

spirulina, cilantro, wild blueberries, and Atlantic dulse. (For an extra boost, add burdock to the

mix.)

http://www.medicalmedium.com/blog/heavy-metal-detox-smoothie

The detox for this month is designed for the most sensitive of people, with zero side effects,

because the combination of foods grabs onto the metals and removes them from the body.

Many people have toxic heavy metals buried in the body, sometimes deep inside the organs

and glands, connective tissue, or even bones. It can take some time to draw them all out, so be

patient and try to adopt the heavy metal detox portion of this month for as long as you can to

extract the layers of these metals that are embedded within the body.

What to add: Though the smoothie can fill in for one meal or snack, you’re not meant to get

through each day on these items alone. Make sure you fuel yourself with enough food in

between so that you don’t go hungry.

Every morning, drink roughly 16 ounces of fresh plain celery juice on an empty stomach.

Wait at least 15 minutes after drinking it before consuming anything else.

Every day drink the heavy metal detox smoothie.

Sip roughly 16 ounces of lemon or lime water at midday or in early afternoon. Squeeze

the juice from one half of a lemon or lime per 16 ounces of water.

Sip roughly 16 ounces of ginger water in the late afternoon.

Every evening, drink roughly 16 ounces of aloe water or cucumber juice.

What to AVOID: eggs, dairy (including milk, cream, yogurt, cheese, kefir, and ghee), gluten,

canola, corn, soy, and pork. Also skip tuna, swordfish, and bass this month.

----------------------------------------------

Choice C: Thyroid virus cleanse month

The goal: This is the next level of thyroid healing aimed at taming the virus. The virus-fighting

benefits of thyme, fennel seed, and lemon balm are incorporated. You’ll be delivering precious

virus-fighting nutrients to your body in a form that’s easy to digest and assimilate, and you’ll

end the day well hydrated, with vital anti-inflammatory nutrition so your body has the

resources it needs to go after the thyroid virus and repair any damage it’s done.

In order to flush out EB-V debris, revive the thyroid, remove heavy metals, and kill off the

thyroid virus, it’s important to lower your fat intake so as to thin out the blood, allowing viral

waste product, the virus itself, bacteria, and those toxic heavy metals to leave your

bloodstream, find their way to the kidneys and intestinal tract, and be eliminated.

What to add: Though the smoothie can count as one meal or snack, and a full bowl of antiviral

broth with its veggies can be filling enough to form the basis of another meal, you’re not meant

to get through each day on these items alone. Make sure you fuel yourself with enough food in

between so that you don’t go hungry.

Every morning, drink roughly 16 ounces of fresh plain celery juice on an empty stomach.

Wait at least 15 minutes after drinking it before consuming anything else.

Every day drink the heavy metal detox smoothie.

Sip roughly 16 ounces of lemon or lime water at midday or in early afternoon. Squeeze

the juice from one half of a lemon or lime per 16 ounces of water.

Sip roughly 16 ounces of ginger water at any point in the day.

Sip one cup of thyroid healing tea at any point in the day.

At any point during the day or evening, sip a minimum of one cup of thyroid healing

broth (or enjoy its pureed soup form).

Every evening, drink at least 16 ounces of thyroid healing juice.

Thyroid healing tea

Bring 2 cups of water to boil in a small saucepan. Add thyme, fennel seed, and lemon balm, turn off the heat, and allow the tea to steep for 15 minutes or more. Strain into a mug and add honey if desired.

Thyroid healing juice

Run all the ingredients through the juicer. Drink the juice immediately on an empty stomach for best results.

Thyroid healing broth

Place all the ingredients in a large pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a low simmer for 1 hour. Strain and enjoy as a healing, restorative broth that can be sipped throughout the day.

What to AVOID: eggs, dairy (including milk, cream, yogurt, cheese, kefir, and ghee), gluten,

canola, corn, soy, and pork. Skip tuna, swordfish, and bass this month too.

What Symptoms to Expect while Detoxing

Transcript from the “Transitioning” section (page 312) of the 28-Day Cleanse Chapter in the MM

book:

“You may also experience unpleasant emotional and physical sensations as part of the

detoxification. After the initial cleanse phase, in which the bloodstream will purify itself, the liver

will then start to do its work, releasing toxins it’ s been storing for a long time– in some case

years, or even decades. It’s natural to need extra rest during this period, and extra sensitivity

and caring from loved ones. For spiritual support turn to Chapter 22 on “ Soul-Healing

Meditations and Techniques”, and Chapter 23 “Essential Angels”.

As your cells release toxins from unproductive foods you have eaten in the past, cravings and

memories may burst to the surface of your consciousness. Consider each of these mental

twinges a gift. It means a pocket of toxins is leaving you. If you give in to the craving, it may

make you feel momentarily satisfied, but you’ll cut off the detox process and seal remaining

toxins in the liver.

This cleanse could also bliss you out. We don’t just suppress negative emotions – we also

suppress joy. Sometimes we feel overburden by the world’s worries, so we feel we don’t deserve

to be happy. This detox plan will help reset that thinking. As your body pushes out the toxic

clutter, your brain will clear. You could find yourself experiencing realizations about who you

truly are, and about the directions you want your life to go. Embrace that. Listen to it. Your

happiness matters to the good of humanity.”

From the “Epstein-Barr Virus Revealed” radio show:

“You need to slowly knock the viral load down, restoring the CNS. If you have had symptoms

for a long time, it may take a little while (three steps forward and two back). You start feeling

better a month later, and better the next month, and keep climbing that ladder.”

From the “Healing SIBO” radio show:

“Some people don’t feel the best when they start consuming fruit. They may complain that they are experiencing detox symptoms. The reason for this is that they probably are experiencing noticeable detox. Fruit is highly detoxifying and helps to rid our bodies of toxins that build up. Acids naturally found in fruit actually dissolve bacteria. This is one significant reason to consume

fruit if you are trying to heal SIBO because the bacteria causing SIBO is destroyed by fruit acids.”

From the “Rising Out of the Ashes” radio show:

“When you’re recovering and get the first sensations of feeling better, you need to hang on to those. It can be a roller coaster when you are healing (like if you’ve had EBV for a long time), so hanging onto the moments of wellbeing is key to rising from the ashes. It can be 3 steps forward, 2 back, etc. Neurological problems (like brain fog, memory loss, depression, anxiety, aches and pains, migraines, tingles and numbness, tinnitus, vertigo, balance issues, plantar fasciitis-ALL caused by EBV) can take some time to heal. Hold onto the moments where you feel improvements.”

If you've already been taking some steps for healing or easing a stressful situation, like including more fruits, drinking celery juice, watching the sunset, or praying to the Angels, have you noticed any little changes, even if they're not consistent yet? Every little bit of progress we make counts, and it's critical when we are in a storm to hold onto every little improvement, win, or relief we experience.

Healing isn't always a linear process, so don't be discouraged if it seems like there's some setbacks. Often it's three steps forward, two steps back, so there may be times when it can feel like we aren't making progress, but in reality we are. Healing can also happen in increments where a lot of progress could be made one month and then small amounts of progress the next month.

But if we really pay attention, we may notice that we did have a better day, or headaches come less frequently, or we have a little more energy. When you notice little shifts, hold onto them as a reminder that health and happiness is possible, and all storms pass.

From Thyroid Healing (page 19, “Viral corpses”, “Neurotoxins,” & “Dermatoxins”) Important to consider as we embark in an antiviral protocol that will kill viruses accelerating the “natural” viral die-off.

”Viral cells have a roughly six-week of life cycle, which means that cells are often dying off. These viral corpse cells are toxic too, and as EB-V grows in the body, there are more and more of them.” “Viral corpse accumulation in the liver and lymphatic system creates sluggishness that often contributes to issues such as fatigue, weight gain, fluid retention, constipation, bloating, hot flashes, heart flutters, brain fog, and perimenopause/menopause symptoms.” “In later stages of the virus, EB-V produces neurotoxins, poisons that disrupt nerve function. These neurotoxins come out as part of the virus’ filmy byproduct sludge, then disperse, often inflaming the nerves and causing a great deal of pain.” “Neurotoxins also reside in the viral corpses,… and can seep out as the corpses drift through the body.” “Similar to neurotoxins, these poisons are excreted by EB-V when copper and pesticides such as DDT from generations past are sitting in the liver, giving a specific type of fuel to the virus. As with neurotoxins, dermatoxins can also remain in viral corpses and seep out over time.”

From Thyroid Healing (page 28, on “flare ups”)

“Flare-ups can also occur as part of the battle between your immune system and the virus. When you are killing off EB-V in hard to reach places in your body, sometimes EB-V will try to balance

its loss by sending out another proliferation, starting second and third cycles of the virus that bring back frustrating symptoms.”

From Thyroid Healing (page 139, on “challenges of healing from EB-V”)

“As EB-V begins to die off in certain parts of the body, it fights back trying to start a 2nd and even 3rd round of infections. So, after a period of feeling better, you may develop new symptoms, or a fresh wave of fatigue. Take heart that this is a natural part of healing, and the more healing tools you have, the better positioned you are to shorten or prevent these viral cycles.”

Note on the information that follows: Please note that these are excerpts from individualized answers Anthony has given to people in the forum. Therefore they are intended for the person who asked and not as a general rule. They are included here to give us an idea of what could be happening when one experiences some symptoms during detox and that way moderate our fears.

On Pain while Detoxing: MM Q&A Feb 2016: Question: I had a sharp pain on the mid right side of my abdomen and also

when I do certain yoga moves. The intensity lessens but that area is very sore for days after. I

completed the 28 day detox and realize I may need to continue for much longer since my symptoms

continue. Please advise.

Answer: “Yes, you can do the 28 day cleanse for longer than a month. Because you had the mono

and HSV-1 at 22, it tends to take a little time to get better and go away. The sharp abdominal pain

was because your spleen and liver were slightly inflamed and enlarged from the viruses so they will

be a little tender as you’re healing. Continuing the cleanse is a great idea as it will help you continue

to bring down the viral load that you’re dealing with. Spirit recommends you supplement with B12

with adenosylcobalamin and methylcobalamin, zinc sulfate, selenium and vitamin C ( see the brands

I recommend in the Supplements file in this group) to help the viral load and to build up your immune

system It’s also very important to drink 2-3 cups of licorice root tea every day (simmer 2 teaspoons

of licorice root in each cup of hot water for 20 minutes then strain and drink).”

MM Q&A July 2016: When you have long term EBV and it’s affected the nervous system for many

years, the nerves get injured, inflamed, dried, hardened, and cracked along the way. The first step is

lowering the EBV load. As you do this, you’re not necessarily meant to feel better right away. It

varies with each person. Many people don’t feel better right away in the cleanse because they’re

cleaning out a lot of neurotoxins, and this is what is keeping the nerves inflamed still. The virus

creates a huge amount of toxins in the liver and other places in the body, and when you drink celery

juice consistently, it flushes them out, which means you might not feel better right away but you are

healing. The nerves also take time to repair, especially when they’ve been inflamed for a long time,

so you need to give it more time. The tool that helps the nerves repair the most is the B12 I

recommend with adenosylcobalamin and methylcobalamin. You’ve just started that one so you need

to give it more time. It can take a year of taking that B12 to repair nerve damage. If you were to stop

the cleanse and supplements you’re doing now, and went back to what you were doing before, you’d

still likely see a significant improvement in your health in 3 months time, but you’d think it was

something else causing it. This happens all the time. Really it would be from the work you’ve been

doing the last 28 days creating those improvements. Keep going with all that you’re doing, including

the cleanse if possible. The changes will come and you’ll start feeling better soon.”

MM Q & A October 2016: QUESTION: I have been having bad migraines, and neck, shoulder and

jaw pain. I’ve been following the EBV protocol for a month and seeing improvements, but still have

pain. What can I do?

Important: If you get overly concerned about the symptoms, have them checked by your

physician or get a consult with a MM practitioner.

ANSWER: “A month on the protocol is fantastic! Congratulations. A month can bring about a lot of

changes for some people, but healing chronic issues takes time. Keep going with what you’re doing,

and also add in the Shingles protocol. Shingles can be the cause of chronic migraines, neck,

shoulder, and jaw pain so adding in the suggestions from the Shingles chapter of Anthony’s book

Medical Medium also could be helpful. Keep going and have faith. Healing is happening, it just takes

time to recover from decades of being influenced by The Unforgiving Four (read about these

here http://www.medicalmedium.com/blog/unforgiving-four ) along with any poor food or lifestyle

choices we have made, the stress in our lives, and so on.”

On Bloating while Detoxing: MM Q&A October 2016: “Most people who experience bloating when they eat more fruits and

vegetables are already dealing with bloating before they added these foods in. The bloating was

there before but when you eat small portions of densely caloric foods with little or no fiber or water,

like a piece of chicken, cheese, or a small handful of nuts and you’re not eating a lot of fruits or

vegetables, you will only notice a small amount of bloating. But when you increase the quantity of

water rich, highly fibrous fruits and vegetables in your diet, you will naturally be eating a lot more

volume of food, even if it’s not more calories. Because you’re now eating more volume, the bloating

issue you already had will showcase itself more obviously. Also, as your liver starts to cleanse and

purge as you add in more fruits and vegetables, which are naturally detoxifying, a lot of poisons flood

out of the liver and go into the intestinal tract. As you continue to detox, you can experience some

bloating from this, especially if all the fiber from the fruits and vegetables is cleaning old deposits of

food out of your intestinal tract and colon. People with digestive trouble already have low

hydrochloric acid also, so as poisons dump into the liver, the bloating can feel more noticeable as

your body clears out old toxins. The most effective way to build your hydrochloric acid is to drink

16oz of straight celery juice (ideally organic) on an empty stomach every day. Some people can feel

a difference in a matter of days or weeks, for others it takes some months or longer. If your past diet

from 10, 20, 30, or 40 years ago was filled with processed food, and you start bringing in fruits and

veggies, expect some cleansing and readjusting. It’s also important to look at what else is in your

diet. If you eat more fruits and vegetables but you’re still including some of the foods Anthony lists in

his What Not To Eat chapter of his book, you’ll likely still experience symptoms like bloating because

it’s much harder for healing to occur with these foods in your diet. These foods need to be removed

entirely to not cause further issues. It’s also important to look at what you’re eating your fruits with.

Fruits are so quickly digested that when we eat them with other foods like grains, cooked

vegetables, dairy, or animal protein, you can experience bloating.”

On Body Weight Issues: MM Q & A July 2016: Question: I’m struggling to lose weight even though I’m eating cleaner and incorporating more of the foods you recommend. What is happening? Answer: “Difficulty losing weight indicates the person has a sluggish, pre-fatty or fatty liver, so even if you’re eating clean, you can still be gaining weight. Anthony talks about this in his radio show episode titled ‘Why You’re Not Losing Weight’, which you can find in the archives at http://bit.ly/1KnExeh . If you’ve been eating more fruits and vegetables and cleaning up your diet, you will be helping your body without a doubt. But your attention needs to be on detoxifying and healing your liver so the weight can come off as it heals. The liver can hold viruses and their toxic byproducts, heavy metals, pesticides, herbicides, and every other toxin you have been exposed to and collected over time, so it needs plenty of support to get those toxins out.

The key to detoxifying the liver is to reduce your fat intake. An overload of fat strains the liver and dramatically slows detoxification, as well as slowing down digestion, feeding pathogens, increasing edema, and more. Significantly reduce animal foods while you are healing your liver as that’s the hardest fat source on the liver. If you’re eating a plant based diet, reduce the amount of plant fat you eat too. Cut out or down on oils, and reduce nuts, seeds, and avocado. Instead significantly increase your fruits and vegetables and ensure you are eating plenty of calories. You can also add liver-supporting foods into your diet like lemon water upon waking, straight celery juice daily as Anthony describes in the book, wild blueberries, cherries, cranberries, grapes, dates, mangoes, papaya, pears, asparagus, artichokes, sprouts, radishes, cilantro, cucumbers, cruciferous vegetables, and leafy greens including dandelion greens. You can also consider supplements and teas like milk thistle, licorice root, burdock root, dandelion root, chaga, red clover, and aloe vera water. It’s also important to be patient when you’re healing the liver. It’s working extremely hard for you and it takes some time to release all the toxins it’s holding. The weight loss will come as your liver heals.”

MM Q & A: Question: My issue is that I lose weight, my weight is 94 pound. I eat a lot, every two

hours, I eat more than 2000 kcal/day but I continue to lose weight! I have pain in my stomach and in

pancreas area which goes down across the abdomen. Doctors can't find anything wrong with me! I

also have weakness and tingling in my arms and legs. I feel very weak and dizzy. This morning I

tried to drink celery juice and I was not feeling good at all. I ‘m very worried if it’s even possible for

me to eat a vegan food?! I‘d really love to but I feel like I will disappear then... God bless you

Anthony and Spirit.

Answer: “Hang in there and have faith, you can heal. You have an overactive liver, which is

somewhat rare. Your overactive liver is highly stimulated and causing the pain you’re feeling across

the abdomen. It’s different to a fatty or pre-fatty liver. Your liver requires a tremendous amount of

glucose, meaning a tremendous amount of starch calories versus protein calories. The more protein

you eat with this condition, the more weight you’ll lose, and the dizzier and weaker you’ll get. You

need a very large amount of calories, and a plant based diet would be good for you for a while. Lots

of potatoes, sweet potatoes, bananas, dates, avocados, papayas. That will calm the liver down and

you will put weight on. When you eat too many proteins, there’s not enough glucose for the liver to

heal, as the liver is fed by glucose not protein. Your liver is starving for the right food, and with these

correct foods you can bring the liver back to balance. After it stabilizes, you can go back to eating

animal foods if you like.”

MM Q & A Sept 2016 : Question: I’m doing the 28 day cleanse from your book Medical Medium but

I’m losing too much weight. What do I do?

ANSWER: “It’s very normal to lose excess weight when you do the cleanse because it detoxifies the

liver and other organs. However, many people also just don’t eat enough when they do the cleanse

as they are not used to eating enough volume of fruits and vegetables to get enough calories. If you

were eating chicken, cheese, pork, fish, eggs, milk, and/or grains before the cleanse for example,

and then you switch to the 28-day cleanse diet as described in my book, you will naturally be eating

far less calorie dense foods. Fruits and vegetables simply don’t have as many calories as other

foods, so you can’t switch a plate of chicken and rice or even chicken and broccoli with the same

sized plate of fruit and vegetables and expect to get the same amount of calories. You will likely be

eating 1/3-1/5 of the amount of calories. To prevent losing too much weight, you can eat plenty of

sweet fruits like bananas, dates, and mangoes, and also include more avocado, some seeds like

sesame and hemp, and at dinner include some steamed starchy vegetables like potato, sweet

potatoes and butternut squash. Also make sure you are eating every hour and a half to two hours.

This will support your adrenals and help keep your body at its optimal weight. Lastly, it takes time for

the body to heal. For some people that can mean some unwanted weight loss due to the health

conditions they are already dealing with, and it will balance out in time provided you are truly eating

enough. It could be helpful to track your calories for a few days to make sure you are eating

enough.”

MM Q & A April 2016 : I usually eat plenty of cooked veggies and veggie-fruits (squash, zucchini,

broccoli) because I feel I digest these better compared to raw, but I find I wear a lot of 'water weight’

when eating lots of veggies (excluding leafy greens). Whether this is from the veggies and/or

something else I don’t know but the water weight pressure can be intense. (I find I wear a lot of

water weight regardless of what I eat.) If you have any guidance on this that would be super! It would

be also helpful to know if raw or cooked veggies are better for some people or best to mix it up, esp

on the cleanse?

Answer: “You can mix up the raw and cooked vegetables in your diet, but do the raw fruits and

veggies during the day and cooked veggies at night. That will help your healing process and

digestion. The water weight is from a miscommunication happening between your liver, spleen and

kidneys. I suggest you do the 16oz of straight celery juice on an empty stomach every day. You can

do this as your first daily drink on the cleanse too. The minerals salts in this juice will help to ignite

the kidneys and freshen up the liver. That can make a big difference. You can also do aloe juice

each day by blending the gel from inside a third of an aloe leaf each day with water and drinking

that. It doesn’t taste fantastic but it’s a powerful remedy. Drinking 2 cups of nettle leaf and red clover

blossom tea each day will also help the water weight as they act as diuretics. Buying the herbs and

making your own teas with 1 tbsp of the herb per one cup of water would be a good amount to

brew.”

MM Q & A April 2016 : Question: I have been getting treatment by a Naturopath for Lyme disease for

1 year. I did the cleanse in January and have continued to eat raw for 2 out of 3 meals a day with

raw snacks in between. My problem is that I can't seem to lose weight no matter what I do. I am

starting to try to work out a bit more because since the cleanse and continued eating I have a bit

more energy these days. I listened to your webcast about losing weight and I was a big meat eater

before January of this year and have cut my fat intake by 80% but it doesn't seem to make a

difference. Does it take a long time for the liver to become less fatty so that weight can begin to

come off?

Answer: “You are doing a great job. It’s wonderful that you’ve lowered your fat and did the cleanse.

I’m really proud of you. I’m glad you’re working with a naturopath. You could work with your

naturopath to focus more on your thyroid which has a viral condition and is holding you back from

losing weight. It would be better to focus more on your thyroid than the Lyme disease even. It takes

time for the liver to heal. To help your liver recover faster, you can go completely plant based for

longer if you’re not already. You can stay on the 28 day cleanse to really help your liver continue to

cleanse, but make sure you are eating enough calories. This will give your liver a big jump start,

along with focusing on your thyroid more with your naturopath and applying the information in the

thyroid chapter in my book. You are doing a great job, and with these tweaks you will be moving

forward even more. Blessings”.

General Questions about Cleansing

MM Q & A October 2016: QUESTION: During the 28 Day Healing Cleanse, is it best to avoid all

herbs and supplements, and let the body concentrate on the healing foods?

ANSWER: “The cleanse can be done with or without herbs and supplements. It depends on many

factors, like your sensitivity level, access to supplements, budget, and more, and really it’s an

individual choice. It can be very helpful to continue with supplements throughout the cleanse period

but if that feels too much for you, then foods alone can bring incredible progress. Any healing steps

you take count and can help move you forward.“

MM Q & A October 2016: Question: How do I know if I’m healing and how long should I keep going

with the protocol to see results?

ANSWER: “The healing process for each of us is as unique and different as we all are. That means

it will never be the same for any two people. True healing can take time. Many issues can clear

quickly, while others can take longer. It depends on so many factors, including your health

conditions, their severity, how long you’ve had them, stress levels, diet and lifestyle choices, other

healing steps you are taking, how consistent you are, which steps you take and which you don’t, and

more. If you make improvements in any way, like adding in the Heavy Metal Detox Smoothie -

www.medicalmedium.com/blog/heavy-metal-detox-smoothie

, you will be giving your body the opportunity to heal a bit more. It all counts. If you’re making better

choices with the correct information that Anthony shares, you will be moving forward in one way or

another. It’s also important to remember that healing isn't always a linear process, so don't be

discouraged if it seems like there's some setbacks. Often it's three steps forward, two steps back, so

there may be times when it can feel like we aren't making progress, but in reality we are. Healing can

also happen in increments where a lot of progress could be made one month and then small

amounts of progress the next month. As symptoms start to improve a bit, or clear altogether, you will

know deeper healing has happened. It’s helpful to keep working with the healing information

Anthony shares until you are free of symptoms, and even then continue for a bit longer. If something

helps you to heal, it can be helpful to keep doing for longer too.”

MM Q & A November 2016 : QUESTION: My tongue has turned black since starting the MM

protocols. What is causing this?

ANSWER: “It’s not uncommon for the tongue to turn black as you detoxify heavy metals and

chemicals with the information Anthony shares in his books and radio shows. The tongue will return

to a healthy color as the toxins leave your system. It takes time for all of these poisons to leave the

body, so it’s best to keep going with the steps you are taking for at least six months to a year after

you are symptom-free, or if you wish.”

MM Q & A February 2016: QUESTION. I can’t tolerate most of the healing fruits and vegetables recommended. What should I eat?

ANSWER: “When someone thinks they don’t tolerate certain healing foods, usually it’s because they feel discomfort or symptoms of some kind after they consume it. This doesn’t necessarily mean you have an intolerance to the healing food, but rather that you have sensitive nerves and other health conditions that you feel when you eat the very foods that bring healing to the body. Anthony discussed food allergies and sensitivities in detail in his recent radio show which you can find

here: https://soundcloud.com/medicalmedium/healing-from-allergies. I highly recommend listening to it a few times over as it contains so much new information that he brings to light for the first time. If you are eating healing foods but are feeling too much discomfort, you can reduce the amount of them you eat, or leave certain ones out entirely for now, bringing them back in again later as you heal. Some symptoms and discomfort is normal and expected as you change your diet and supplements and heal, especially if you have particularly sensitive nerves and so many people do. But this experience is different for everyone and has to be adjusted individually. If you are too uncomfortable or symptomatic, you can focus just on the healing foods that do feel comfortable enough for you and take it very slow. These foods will be different for everyone. Some of the foods that often feel best for very sensitive people include mango, papaya, cucumber, celery, lettuce, pear, potato, sweet potato, and wild blueberries. It’s ok to just eat a few simple foods that feel most comfortable to you for a short time, just try to get some fruit and greens in. You can also just include small amounts of many healing foods and over time increase the amount of them you eat as your body adjust and heals. It’s also important to do your best to keep the Foods Not To Eat from the Medical Medium book out of your diet. I know it’s not always easy, but if you’re including them, you will likely be experiencing symptoms from them because they contribute to illness, which can influence your understanding of whether it’s the healing foods or other foods still in your diet that are causing your symptoms.”

MM Q & A March 2017 QUESTION: Can supplements cause the liver to be overburdened and slow down healing?

ANSWER: “If you are taking high quality supplements that are truly health-supporting, they will not burden the liver or any other part of your body. In fact, they will do the opposite and help to strengthen and support your organs and entire body. The right supplements with clean ingredients taken for the right conditions can be life-changing. Some of the supplements from good sources that Anthony prefers can be found at www.medicalmedium.com/preferred/supplements. Anthony’s radio show and article on ‘Are Supplements Necessary?’ explains more on this topic and why supplements are helpful, not harmful.”

MM Q & A April 2017: QUESTION: Is there enough protein on the 28 Day Healing Cleanse or if my

diet is mostly fruits and vegetables?

ANSWER: “Fruits, vegetables and leafy greens contain plenty of the most bioavailable and helpful

forms of protein. This information is helpful to know for anyone who is concerned they won’t get

enough protein if they reduce their animal protein, say to once a day, to allow space for more of the

healing fruits, vegetables, and leafy greens, like those mentioned in Life-Changing Foods. When

someone physically feels symptoms like weakness and fatigue when they are eating a diet of all or

mostly fruits, leafy greens, and vegetables, they may think it’s because they aren’t eating enough

protein. In actuality, what’s really happening is that they aren’t getting enough calories and aren’t

eating often enough (every 2 hours at least) and this can leave someone feeling weak and tired. It’s

not a lack of protein, but a lack of calories. What frequently happens when someone moves from a

diet high in animal foods or processed foods, which are naturally high in calories, to a more plant

based diet, is that they don’t increase the volume of food they are eating. But the volume of plant

foods needed to match the calories in a piece of steak or a few eggs for example is vastly different.

Plant foods are much lower in calories so a greater volume of food needs to be eaten. A small salad

will not be sufficient at replacing the calories in a meal of chicken breast and broccoli. If you don’t eat

enough calories when you eat a more plant-based diet, you will likely feel symptoms from the large

drop in calories. Again, this is not a protein deficiency issue but a calorie issue. If you follow the 28

day Healing Cleanse or eat primarily fresh fruit, leafy greens and vegetables, put your focus on

eating enough calories, including enough leafy greens (see the Healing Path free course to learn

more about these wonderful foods - http://www.medicalmedium.com/healingpath), along with

snacking every 1.5 to 2 hours, and you will be consuming sufficient calories and protein. It is

important to note that the current thinking that someone must consume a range of different plant

foods together, like beans, grains, and leafy greens, at one meal in order to get a “complete protein”

is misinformation. Every fruit, vegetable, and leafy green already contains protein in exactly the form

the body needs it and can best receive it. It’s great to eat a variety of these foods for different

nutrients, but it’s not necessary to do so for a complete protein.”

On Hair Loss: MM Q & A April 2016: Question: I have been on your cleanse for three weeks. I feel better than I have in years but I do have one thing that troubles me. I seem to be losing a lot of hair. What would you suggest is the reason and what can one do to stop the trend. Thank you for your help with this. Answer: Hair loss you’re experiencing today is actually caused by something that happened in your life 8-10 months ago. This is true for anyone who loses hair. It takes that long for your hair to fall out after the cause occurs. You don’t lose your fair from something that you’re doing in the moment that you’re hair is coming out. For example, if you lose hair from chemotherapy, it takes time to fall out. It’s important to look back at what was happening in your life around 8, 9 or 10 months ago and note if you were under stress, what you were eating, your lifestyle choices, any deficiencies you may or may not have been aware of, and so forth. Spirit recommends you take B12 with adenosylcobalamin and methylcobalamin, barley grass juice powder, and Gaia Herbs Thyroid Support to help with the hair loss. All the brands I recommend for these products are listed at http://www.medicalmedium.com/preferred/supplements. Blessings to you.”

On Cleansing while Breastfeeding:

MM Q & A : Question: Do you think doing 28 days cleanse is a good idea while breastfeeding? Thank you

Answer: “I don’t normally recommend the 28 day cleanse (or any kind of cleanse) for someone who is breastfeeding because when people think about cleansing, they naturally tend to undereat. There’s a mental association that can lead to not eating enough and then producing breast milk can be a problem. You have to eat enough calories to produce ample breast milk. You can do the 28 day cleanse as long as you ensure you're getting plenty of calories. You can’t go hungry, you must graze every hour and a half to two hours, and you have to bring in more higher calorie foods like a lot more fruit, more avocado, and some steamed potatoes, sweet potatoes and butternut squash to ensure your body gets as much as it needs for breastfeeding. Many blessings.”

On Nasty Symptoms while Cleansing:

MM Q & A July 2016 : Question: I have debilitating brain fog for 3 years on and off for years now. No

dr even alternative dr's have been able to help me. It feels like I have a cotton wool ball in my head

and my vision is affected. For some reason it is at it's worst in the summer. I also have had sores in

my nose for five years that just refuse to go away. Along with bloating and some weight gain. I have

been doing a modified cleanse for nine months now following your EBV protocol, heavy metal detox

protocol and really frustrated. This week i had a huge outburst of cold sores on my lips out of

nowhere. Is there anything i can do to help my brain fog go away?

Answer: “The cotton wool ball feeling is from nerve endings being inflamed from the same virus that

is giving you the sores and affecting your vision, which is a virus from the shingles family. This

feeling will be worse in the summer because the heat causes the body to swell and your already

inflamed nerves in your head, behind your eyes, and in your sinuses feel it even more. You don’t

have the typical shingles cold sores, but a different herpetic variety. You can use the advice in the

Shingles chapter of my book to help you work through this, and you can also listen to my radio show

on Shingles at http://www.medicalmedium.com/blog/shingles-virus . It’s critical to keep your diet very clean and free of eggs, dairy, corn, and gluten, and to incorporate

some of the supplements I recommend for shingles. L Lysine in higher doses is critical for you. It will

take some time to heal, but the fact that you have been eating cleaner for the last nine months will

be helping this be less severe than it would have been. Take it one day at a time and keep moving

forward.”

MM Q & A August 2016: I was diagnosed with EBV. I've been following your advice for 3 months but

still have brain fog, exhaustion and I have gained weight I just can't seem to get off. I work out and

am eating right. Anymore advice would be great.

Answer: “When you’ve had EBV for a long time, it’s going to create a lot of neurotoxins that cause

brain fog and exhaustion. The weight gain is from EBV in your liver and thyroid. It takes time to heal.

When you eat right and take care of yourself, you’re moving around a lot of the old neurotoxins and

they’re going to still cause brain fog and exhaustion until they are cleaned out of your body. If you’re

not already on the B12 with adenosylcobalamin and methylcobalamin, this would be very helpful to

add. Make sure you are eating every hour and a half to two hours and it would be ideal to snack on

some of the options in my Adrenal Snacks videos -https://youtu.be/efiULkG17Qw“

MM Q & A May 2016: Question: My question is after starting a small detox program with celery juice

in the morning lemon balm incorporating blueberries taking the B vitamin taking probiotics and the

EPA's and really adding more leafy greens and veggies to my diet could this all start a shingles

flareup? I have suffered from cold sores my whole life, and is now at age 41 about a month after

starting all of these new supplements and lifestyle I have what appears to be shingles on my chest, it

burns all the way up one side of my neck. I have 1 million questions, but this really hurts and itches.

Answer: “I’m really happy you are doing the detox, you’re doing a great job. The detox you’ve

started didn’t start the shingles flare up. The rash you are getting now means you already had a

shingles flare up on its way. Shingles usually comes out in women anytime between 38 and 45.

Some women experience it earlier or later but that’s when the majority of women get it. For shingles

to be at the stage of causing a rash means it was already in the process of coming out for at least

the last year and a half. It takes that long to work itself to this point. You can’t be on a protocol for a

month and then have shingles rash flare up because of that protocol. The diet and supplement

changes don’t cause shingles, but if we hypothetically said it was causing the shingles, then the rash

would come out in a year and a half from when you started making the changes causing it. It takes

that long to come out on the skin. The diet and supplements you are taking will actually be helping

you to get rid of the shingles. Spirit recommends you keep going with these changes so you can

recover as quickly as possible. Spirit also says it’s very important for you to take the zinc sulfate I

recommend, plenty of L Lysine, and licorice root tea to help speed up your recovery. If you are open

to the 28 day Healing Cleanse, that could also be very helpful. Many blessings.”

MM Q & A October 2016: QUESTION: I can’t tolerate most of the healing fruits and vegetables

recommended. What should I eat?

ANSWER: “When someone thinks they don’t tolerate certain healing foods, usually it’s because they

feel discomfort or symptoms of some kind after they consume it. This doesn’t necessarily mean you

have an intolerance to the healing food, but rather that you have sensitive nerves and other health

conditions that you feel when you eat the very foods that bring healing to the body. Anthony

discussed food allergies and sensitivities in detail in his recent radio show which you can find

here:https://soundcloud.com/medicalmedium/healing-from-allergies . I highly recommend listening to it a few times over as it contains so much new information that he

brings to light for the first time. If you are eating healing foods but are feeling too much discomfort,

you can reduce the amount of them you eat, or leave certain ones out entirely for now, bringing them

back in again later as you heal. Some symptoms and discomfort is normal and expected as you

change your diet and supplements and heal, especially if you have particularly sensitive nerves and

so many people do. But this experience is different for everyone and has to be adjusted individually.

If you are too uncomfortable or symptomatic, you can focus just on the healing foods that do feel

comfortable enough for you and take it very slow. These foods will be different for everyone. Some

of the foods that often feel best for very sensitive people include mango, papaya, cucumber, celery,

lettuce, pear, potato, sweet potato, and wild blueberries. It’s ok to just eat a few simple foods that

feel most comfortable to you for a short time, just try to get some fruit and greens in. You can also

just include small amounts of many healing foods and over time increase the amount of them you

eat as your body adjust and heals. It’s also important to do your best to keep the Foods Not To Eat

from the Medical Medium book out of your diet. I know it’s not always easy, but if you’re including

them, you will likely be experiencing symptoms from them because they contribute to illness, which

can influence your understanding of whether it’s the healing foods or other foods still in your diet that

are causing your symptoms.”

FaceBook Live Appearance April 8th 2018: Lots of symptoms while in detox (day 30 of thyroid

healing and feeling worse):

“Lots of things may be happening: killing off the viral load, actually detoxing, plus you have to make

sure that you are doing it right. You may be missing something because in cleanses people tend to

under-eat (people tend to eat less than we are supposed to do) and if we eat too little while we are

detoxing all the viruses, toxins and junk out of the system, it could be a too heavy kind of a cleanse,

it could make you feel tired because we don’t get the energy we need (due to light eating). Make

sure you tap in to the people that are doing the 90-day cleanses right now in Instagram for example.”

On Going Off the MM Protocols: MM Q & A August 2016: Question: I have EBV/adrenal fatigue/ and heavy metals - self diagnosed

from your book. This will be the 4th month on your diet/supplements. Making headway but have a

long road ahead I think. Making my food everyday has become part of my spiritual practice as it

takes time and effort and forethought. I am getting nervous thinking of taking a month long trip in

October, visiting my folks who eat all my no-no foods and love to go out to restaurants every

morning for breakfast and then again for coffee and! Lots of bread, pizza, pasta, eggs, dairy! I will be

flying with my vitamix to make smoothies. My question is: what if I go off my diet? Will that undo

everything I have worked so hard to change? Will it set me back? Thank you ahead of time Anthony!

Answer: “It depends on what you eat and how often you eat it while you’re away. At restaurants that

sell pizza, pasta, and the like, the best option would be steamed or roasted vegetables (ask for only

100% pure olive oil) or you could try a plain pasta with marinara sauce without the cheese, and skip

the bread. You may also be able to find rice with vegetables which would be a better option. If it’s

pizza place, have a pizza with vegetables and tomato sauce but no cheese. You can always check

menus and call ahead of time to ask the chef to create something special for you too. It’s helpful to

eat a little something before you go too so you’re not ravenous and want everything on the menu. It’s

wonderful you’re doing the smoothies, that will really help. If you eat foods that aren’t supportive of

healing every day, it can set you back in your progress. If it’s infrequent, you should be ok because

of all the great healing work you’ve been doing already. When you get back home, it could be very

helpful to go the extra mile with your health and really take great care of yourself, especially with a

clean diet, to help you move forward again. Do the best you can and make the cleanest choices

possible. I’m proud of you. Blessings.”
