Sun-Diet Health Foundation

The Sun-Diet Sanatorium was located in East Aurora, NY.  It was first founded in 1922 by Dr. John Hanavan and was known as the Sun Cure Sanatorium.  It was a place where people went to cure their physical, mental and emotional problems with the 14 day OJ Fast.  Along with that they learned and thoroughly understood the PRINCIPLES of right food combining.

The Foundation’s 18 acres of land included a golf course, small lake, woods, and tennis courts.  Sixty employees took care of the 1,000 guests that stayed each year at the 80 room clinic.  A short time later, Oliver F. Cabana, Jr., a Buffalo businessman, banker and political leader helped found this institution.

Dr. William Howard Hay (1866-1940) was appointed director of the Sun-Diet Health Foundation in 1927.  Dr. R. L. Alsaker was the Health Director during this period.  Dr. Hay and his staff helped cure 63,000 people throughout the eighteen years it was in place.  There were no repeat customers as long as they followed the proper PROTOCOLS to health and diet.  What a great way to introduce new jobs into the nation.  Unfortunately, the foundation suddenly closed in 1941 and its buildings made into apartments.

World News:

This is the saddest thing most of us could ever imagine is the Sandy Hook tragedy.  If you really place yourself in each person’s shoes (the victims as well as the victimizer), it would bring yourself to uncontrollable tears.  The problem the NATION faces is quite enormous.  Since we had an incident in China happening almost simultaneously, this has become a WORLD wide disease.

We need to spread the word about proper physical health, cleanses and fasting.  When we have good physical health then it naturally follows that there is going to be less mental disease, a reduction in birth-rate and violence.  Everything that every good citizen would want is inherent in the solution.

The world has before itself two choices: to either allow GREED to continue to rule the day or set down some proper laws that get to the ROOT CAUSE of this issue and eliminate some or all of the conditions that contribute to this problem.

When a psychotic-killer does something like this they are telling us that they seriously hate themselves and are looking for the reason why they feel so bad.  Of course, with the limited amount of information and lack of true understanding they can’t find it.  As a society we are all partly to blame.  Kids like Adama Lanza are lashing out and telling us something is deeply wrong physically, emotionally and subconsciously.

Children are supposed to be born into a world where they can trust their parents, teachers and the government to have some INTELLIGENCE, COMPASSION AND WISDOM to give us a good and proper start in life.  If we have done nothing to provide them these basic necessities then we are partly to blame as each of us makes up this society in some form or another.

Rehabilitating criminals:

Book 1 author goes into quite a lot of detail explaining the correlation between physical disease, physical deficiency (in bone and teeth) and the criminal mind.  In his book Health via Food Dr. Hay states:

“IT WOULD BE A LAUDABLE UNDERTAKING TO INSTITUTE A SERIES OF TESTS ON THE FEEDING OF THE HABITUAL CRIMINAL, IF SOME ENTERPRISING STATE WOULD TURN OVER AN INSTITUTION FOR THIS PURPOSE, AND IT IS THE FIRM BELIEF OF THE WRITER THAT A VERY LARGE PERCENTAGE OF THE INMATES COULD SAFELY BE TURNED OUT AGAIN INTO SOCIETY IF THIS EXPERIMENT WERE CONTINUED SUFFICIENTLY LONG TO INCULCATE A NEW HABIT OF FOOD SELECTION AND COMBINATION.”

Again we have the problem of FEAR…fear of losing jobs..and I’ve actually heard a story about one jail official fearing losing his job if we were to seriously rehabilitate criminals.  At least, now, we can point to the harmful CONSEQUENCES of such ignorant beliefs these types of people hold.

“PERHAPS THE IDEAL PLACE FOR SUCH A DEMONSTRATION WOULD BE A FARM FOR INCORRIGIBLE BOYS, A HOUSE OF CORRECTION, FOR THIS WOULD GIVE OPPORTUNITY FOR MAKING GOOD THE USUAL DEFICIENCIES BEFORE GROWTH IS COMPLETED, AND AT A TIME WHEN HABIT IS MORE EASILY AND PERMANENTLY CORRECTED.” — DR. HAY

I only wish that modern scientists can be more like him.  It is for everyone’s benefit to come back into alignment while understanding the cause and effect of illness.  At the very least, discover what various conditions are needed to be separated from, in order to eliminate disease.  Dr. Hay continues:

“SURELY FOOD HAS MUCH TO DO WITH ONE’S FEELINGS, AND ONE’S FEELINGS DECIDE HIS ACTIONS, THE CRIMINAL BEING UNDER LESS RESTRAINT THAN ONE FUNDAMENTALLY HONEST.

CAREFUL EXAMINATION AND COMPLETE BERTILLONS OF MANY THOUSANDS OF LIFE PRISONERS’ FURNISHED SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE OF THIS STATEMENT TO PROVE IT WELL, FOR THESE MEN WERE NOT IN NORMAL HEALTH, NEARLY ALL OF THEM EXHIBITING MAJOR DEFICIENCIES, AND ALL OF THEM EXHIBITING MINOR ONES.

THE TEETH WERE IN POOR CONDITION NEARLY ALWAYS, THE BONY DEVELOPMENT WAS DEFICIENT, THE SHAPE OF THE HEAD AND THE LOWER JAW SHOWED DEFICIENT DEVELOPMENT, THE PALATAL ARCH WAS TOO HIGH AND THE TEETH CROWDED.”

If we feel we need to CONTROL people more and more with psychotropic drugs and continue to mask the problem then we are following our heads and NOT our hearts.  And that’s what I am afraid the path our current society will continue to take.  For once, let’s take a chance and LOOK deeply into the root causes of disease instead of taking the easy way out.  A true empathetic society sees the motivation of the criminal and creates health-conscious organizations as the antidote.

“THIS IS TO BE EXPECTED IN THE CRIMINAL, FOR HE IS SUCH BECAUSE HE FEELS THAT HE HAS ALWAYS GOTTEN THE WORST OF IT FROM THE WORLD, AND SEEKS TO GET EVEN. RESENTMENT FOR WHAT ONE BELIEVES IS LESS THAN HIS DUE IS A MOTIVATING IMPULSE TOWARD RECRIMINATION AND REVENGE, AND IS A STATE THAT IS DIRECTLY BRED BY SUBSTANDARD PHYSIQUE.” — DR. HAY

This would mean the FDA workers are able to regulate the food and the pharmaceutical industries without fear of retaliation.  At the very least, new jobs could come about through a proper motivation.  Sadly, that doesn’t seem possible in this day and age as health employees are fired for being truthful and honest.

“WHEN ONE IS AS PERFECT PHYSICALLY AS HE SHOULD BE, HE IS CONSCIOUSLY A MASTER OF HIS FATE, AND DEFIES THE WORLD TO GIVE HIM THE WORST OF IT, FOR HE FEELS HIMSELF EQUAL TO ANY CIRCUMSTANCES THAT MAY BE IN HIS WAY IN ACHIEVING HIS ENDS, WITHOUT RESORT TO WEAPONS OR STEALTH OR SUBTERFUGE.” — DR. HAY

If there was a more important need today, more than ever, it would be to reintroduce the Sun-Diet Sanatorium into society.  When we watch television commercials and hear that the side-effects of these pharmaceutical drugs are COMA, DEATH, and SUICIDE etc. we must consider…

Who is crazier: society or the one taking these drugs?

How to fast

It is truly sad that there are so many misconceptions to regaining proper health in our society today.   Someone like Dr. Bass has contributed greatly towards these misconceptions by turning many people against natural fruits, distilled water, and the OJ fast.  He claims these natural sources cause acidosis in the body as a result of losing a tooth during his fast.  However, when done correctly, the orange juice fast is truly a beneficial remedy to countless diseases.

Not many people will complete a fast properly because they simply don’t understand its PRINCIPLES and then come to the wrong conclusions when problems arise.  In 1929, Dr. William Howard Hay wrote the book Health via Food.  With correct reasoning he explains what happens to the body during a fast.

“Fasting does not create acidosis, but it does make it evident, and if one will in the beginning of a fast test all secretions and excretions available with the blue litmus paper this will be evident, for they will perhaps show a mild acidity in the beginning that turns violently acid in reaction in a week or two of fasting, and continues to show this heightened evidence of acid till the very end of the fast.  This does not mean an increased acid state of the body, but that the body is now getting rid of acids faster than when feeding.” — Dr. Hay

Four Main Principles:

First main principle:  The toxins must go down and out!

When the toxins in the body aren’t flowing DOWN and OUT the body, then toxemia can set in and cause trouble.  A self-poisoning of the blood results because there is no timely flow of waste out the body.  To understand this health protocol is of utmost importance.

How do you get these toxins stored in the body going DOWN and OUT?

You can choose either the daily enema or the herbal formula known as the Lower Bowel Balance (LBB) to achieve the same result.  While the enema takes more time and preparation, the LBB Formula will assist the body to swiftly move the toxins DOWN and OUT the toilet or feet.  Through the effect of the Cascara Sagrada and other herbs, the waste is pushed down and out the body to achieve success.  When you master this part you can literally adjust your body’s detox rate at will.

When you have this under your control then the damaging effects that Dr. Bass and others had of losing their enamel or teeth will NEVER happen.  When the toxins go upwards then the hair, skin and teeth suffer.  When the toxins are trapped in the body then a host of problems arise because there is no flow.  A cavity is the result of toxins trying to push their way out of your overwhelmed body.  The body makes a hole in the tooth to protect itself and release the pressure.  Learn to reverse the direction – down and out the feet to avoid needless suffering.  As MH, the Master Herbalist, says:

“Always 8 LBB per day is enough insurance nothing can go wrong with the colon. More or less is optional, but 8 has always worked well.” — MH

When you get things flowing down and out, then the teeth will become whiter, the hair shinier, and the skin clearer.  I have noticed these results for myself and anyone can determine the truth of this principle just by these signs.

Second main principle:  A daily bowel movement is needed during the fast!

You need to decide on the daily enema or the Lower Bowel Balance (LBB) formula during any fast.  If you opt for the enema it is free…but make sure the temperature is slightly cool at 85 degrees.  The water should be cool to the touch and not cold.  Be careful not to use warm water as that will cause your intestines to atrophy and get out of shape over time.  The alternative to the enema is the LBB Formula which will assist your body to swiftly move the toxins DOWN and OUT the toilet.

The Dr. Hay Rule while fasting is having one bowel movement per day which is absolutely necessary or else toxemia will set in.

Third main principle:  Distilled water removes inorganic minerals from the body!

The common misunderstanding is that distilled water leaches beneficial minerals from your body.  There is nothing further from the truth than this.  In reality, it leaches only the inorganic minerals, which is what you want for your body to return to a balanced state of health.  It is discouraging to hear others being lead away from real health when they give the wrong information.

The cause of much confusion here is the result of using the paper PH strips to determine the acid/alkaline state of the water.  This way to determine the purity of water is always going to be inaccurate.  The correct way to determine the PH of distilled water is by using a liquid PH test kit.  If you use the paper litmus strips you will get the wrong reading every time.

Fourth main principle:  Orange juice adds minerals to your body!

All fresh fruit and nuts will add the proper minerals you need for the body.  Freshly squeezed orange juice is one of the best choices to add beneficial minerals back into your system.  It also helps regulate the potassium/sodium ratio in the body in order to raise the beneficial potassium levels due to the over-consumption of unnecessary salt in our diet.

Another popular misconception is believing that since this fruit is acidic then it must turn your whole body acidic.  In reality, the orange is acidic in its natural state but turns alkaline after being metabolized.

Furthermore, it is rarely understood how pasteurized orange juice is considered harmful.  When juice has been heated up during the manufacturing process it is NOT recommended for the diabetic because it will cause a serious shock to their system.  This shock occurs because this form of juice enters the blood stream too quickly.  Fortunately, freshly squeezed orange juice won’t cause this problem.  It just takes time to get used to this idea and unlearn the wrong information you’ve acquired over the years.

The theory:

Fasting is a common practice in all religions of the world and written about by ancient monks thousands of years ago.  This method of OJ fasting is not as difficult as a complete water-fast.  It is based on the theory that minimal digestion will allow your body to heal, balance, and regenerate itself.   In modern times, it stems from the success Dr. William Howard Hay had in curing 60,000 patients.  His success rate is inspiring and the remarkable results were achieved provided that each step was followed correctly.

“Humans die from having 900x too much calcium rock in their body that makes them shrink and turn HARD.  IF we die when we reach 900x too much calcium, then fasting properly extends your life, that SIMPLE.” — MH

MH has coined the phrase “One cure, cures all” because all disease can be alleviated through the umbrella of this one method.  Of course, the OJ fast is NOT for everybody.  It should be avoided by those that won’t take the time to read, research, and follow the correct protocols.  However, for those that will do it properly it is a relatively safe method.

The results:

The OJ fast tends to be much safer in the long run for the majority of people who had trouble with water-fasts in the past.  Any results from the OJ fast will be achieved half as quickly as the full water-fast.  MH says that zero food other than strained juice for a full twenty-one days, breaks habits and addictions.  He goes on to tell us that there is a timeline which you can expect to see specific results with the OJ fast as follows:

• NEW BLOOD @ 14 day
• NEW HEART @ 21 days
• NEW SKIN @ 35 days
• NEW LIVER by the time you’re done your 40 days.

The method:

You will need to plan ahead and purchase exactly eight oranges a day for each day of your fast.  So if you plan on doing a 14 day fast, then it is 14×8 which is 112 oranges total.  Squeezing one medium sized orange will give you about 2 ounces of juice.  Mix the other half of your glass with distilled-water to equal 4 ounces total.  Do the same for the rest of the oranges.  For the day you would consume 32 ounces of this mixture which is half orange-juice and half distilled-water.  You can adjust the quantity of water more or less to your needs.

I recommend that you squeeze all eight oranges in the morning and then immediately fill the rest of the container with distilled-water until it measures 32 ounces.  If you store it properly it won’t go bad and it will free up your time if you must continue a working job.  Then you decide on a suitable feeding schedule.  You could keep it simple and drink four times throughout the day and consume 8 ounce portions easily.  Of course, you can drink all the extra distilled-water you need if you find yourself feeling thirsty.

MH says, “My guess is 95% of the people that try fasting will fail.  Because they ignore the daily Bowel Movement and then those who think they can water fast, etc.  Fasting is very easy once it is understood, until then, it is near impossible to do it succesfully.  “IF” you don’t understand it, it is called starvation.  The uneducated mind will think it is starving, while the educated mind will know it is actually living for the first time.”

Adding 20 almonds per day is the method for removing tumors from the body.  The almonds will also assist you so that your muscles don’t atrophy and you can continue to work a daily job during the fast.  It has allowed others to exercise or lift weights during the fast as well.  One eats ten almonds at 10 A.M. and the other ten almonds at 12 P.M.  You chew them slowly and carefully into a liquid before swallowing it down.

Three antidotes:

While on the fast these little tips will be a big help.

1. I find if your muscles become fatigued a tablespoon of honey will give you the strength you need.
2. If you are craving pizza then take a tablespoon of olive oil and that will do the trick.
3. If you begin craving chocolate then some spirulina or wheat grass will give you the b-vitamins to satisfy you until you come back into balance.

Remember, you can drink all the distilled water that your body may need during this type of fast.  You can even add other liquids such as honey, maple syrup, and molasses to gain the necessary minerals your body needs to sustain and repair your body throughout the fast.

Ending a fast:

Ending a fast is so critical so you don’t revert back to negative tendencies or hurt your delicate digestive tract.  MH says that there are 2 theories about breaking the fast:

“The one I believe most fitting is to eat 2 pounds of dates and this will expand and scrape out the sludge.  Others say go slow and eat just a little each day until up to normal over eating.”

I used to break a fast with warm soup or broth as was normally suggested.  However, eating dates has been found to be a superior because it is more of a semi-solid food.  It turns the waste into a smooth bolus and thus activates your dormant intestines in a gentle and efficient manner.  It perfectly expands and sweeps out the intestines without causing any harm.

Just chew on the date slowly until it becomes a liquid.  Do not eat one bite more than is required.  Repeat this process every two hours.  The time aloud is required so the stomach can absorb the nutrients and then move into the intestines without shocking the system.

Good luck!

Juice fasting

It has been about seven years since MH, the Master Herbalist, first began discussing his principles of health on the CureZone forum.  Many times, he has mentioned he would possibly phase out his Ask Barefoot Herbalist Forum.  Therefore, I thought it would be essential to gather information here so that others could gain access to his archived posts.  There is a lot of valuable health remedies there and he still responds to questions every day in the public forum.

He even creates his own herbs the Dr. Christopher way – the proper way it was originally intended without fillers and cheating the public.  He also has invented many of his own herbal formulas that obey nature and seek to stimulate healing.

While juice fasting, your nervous system and digestion can take a break and have a chance to heal properly. When I did my 21 day juice-fast I slept only about 4 to 5 hours a night, lost a pound a day, and when I was working in the classroom there was no entropy coming from my students.  That means none of their emotional reactions could affect me. Their energy of neediness and anger and so forth would literally go right through me.

When the body’s karma is taken care of through this Juice Fast it clears the way for deep introspective work such as meditation.

Even Dr. Paul C. Bragg, in one of his books, reported actually seeing evidence of himself expelling quicksilver (mercury) in his stool while fasting.  That in itself is quite amazing.  But, to become an experienced faster, the first thing you need to do is gather the right information.  They say that “knowledge is power” and you have to work hard at unlearning all the false information that has been imposed on you from society.  As the Master Herbalist succinctly puts it:

“Humans die from having 900x too much calcium rock in their body that makes them shrink and turn HARD.  IF we die when we reach 900x too much calcium, then fasting properly extends your life, that SIMPLE.” — MH

This juice fast is taken from a very important pioneer in the medical field named Dr. William Howard Hay.  In the early 1920s, the doctor himself became severely ill with a condition known as dropsy.  He had no way to heal himself as it was considered an incurable condition.  The only recourse he had, was by taking immediate action by fasting to cure himself completely on his own.  After he regained his health, he quit his medical job and set up a seminary where he could really benefit others.  This was a place where others could experience the same results by eating raw foods and juice-fasting.

The reason the Juice Fast is recommended over a water-fast is that your muscles won’t fatigue or atrophy like Gandhi’s body did; because you are eating 20 almonds a day for protein.

I recommend that you download Dr. Hay’s book here called: Health via Food.  It will be a real eye-opener once you read it.  He had a cure rate of a 100 percent as long as they followed his nutrition protocol.  He assisted 60,000 people with various sicknesses ranging from mental illness and emotional problems as well as the deep physical cancers and tumors.  Once I heard about this, I literally spent four months on the Barefoot Herbalist’s Forum reading about six or seven hours a night!  I needed to find out the truth of these health principles in order to prepare myself properly for an extended fast.

The steps:

The School of Self-Applied Prevention is the Master Herbalist’s new website.  This is a great place to read, research and watch videos.  If you are serious about health, then these steps are required for regaining optimal health:

1. Read and research what MH suggests for getting back to health.
2. Invest in buying yourself a good water distiller.
3. Begin taking the LBB (lower bowel balance) herbs to exercise the colon and move impurities down and out.
4. Prepare yourself for doing 3 good liver flushes following the Dr. Hulda Clark’s recipe.
5. Deworm and remove candida/parasites for 30 days straight with MH’s dewormer.

After that, you are ready to do a juice-fast which can be for 3 or 7 days for the beginner.  Most have gone on to do a 14 day juice-fast with no problems at all.  The intermediate and advanced practitioners have accomplished 21 or 40 days worth of juice-fasting respectively.  Natural orange juice itself will supply you with plenty of minerals when it is freshly squeezed.  MH says these are some of the benefits of juice fasting:

“A 21 DAY PROPER ORANGE JUICE FAST GIVES YOU A NEW HEART
IN MY OPINION, A 40 DAY ONE GIVES YOU NEW ORGANS, INCLUDING YOUR SKIN, WHICH IS YOUR LARGEST ORGAN…PROVIDING YOU DO IT CORRECTLY….THE 21 DAY NEW HEART IS MEDICALLY RECORDED AS TEACHED IN THE SCHOOL FOLDER ON MY WEBSITE USING THE ORIGINAL MEDICAL WRITTEN BOOKS.” — MH

Distilled water:

Some observations I made when drinking distilled water is that, surprisingly, you can drink more of it than you ever thought possible.  You just can’t do that when drinking regular spring water.  You’ll soon notice that your body was dehydrated for so long and wonder why you drank anything else.  Some people are told that you should avoid distilled water because it leaches the beneficial minerals from your body but this is a big misconception.  The truth is that it naturally chelates (removes) only the non-organic minerals stored in your cells.

To determine the benefits of distilled water can be known either through self-experimentation or scientifically.  Either way, the cause of much confusion here is the result of using the wrong litmus test.  The paper PH strips should NOT be used to determine the acid/alkaline state of the water.  This way to determine the purity of water is always going to be inaccurate.  The correct way to determine the PH of distilled water is by using the liquid PH test kit.  If you use the paper litmus strips you will get the wrong reading every time.

Herbs:

The first herbal product that is absolute necessary is the Lower Bowel Balance (LBB) to repair your colon and MOVE the toxins down and out.  The other is optional because it has garlic and is not for everybody.  It is called the 2010 Longevity Spices.  The great thing with the Longevity Spices is you will begin to notice an effortless willpower developing for curbing your ravenous appetite for wrong foods.  You’ll get out of the bad habit of indulging in the bad foods you always wanted to give up but just couldn’t on your own.

The protocol:

The main herb that will assist your body in creating HEAT and CIRCULATION is called the Lower Bowel Balance (LBB).  This formula is key for regaining health for a number of reasons.  When you improve the digestive flow downward and out the toxins such as heavy metals and lactic acid (acidic buildup) can move out the elimination organs easily and successfully.  Furthermore, the overflow of candida and parasites can flush out easily with the assistance of this unique herbal formula.

Without the LBB the dreaded Herxheimer reaction happens to most of us.  This means the rapid die-off of the candida causes excessive irritability and then unusual hunger pangs.  This would lead to binging on the foods that contributed to the over-growth of the fungus or yeast in the first place.

It is important to know that without the LBB you will have to take a daily enema each day you fast.  Most would rather take the herb.  Either way one must know the following protocol to ensure safety and results:

The Dr. Hay Rule while fasting is knowing that one bowel movement per day is absolutely NECESSARY or else it is dangerous as toxemia will set in.

So, get educated first before attempting a serious fast and try to avoid all water fasts – as they can be the most dangerous without real guidance, self-confidence and spiritual integrity.  Always research it well, ask questions, and consult your physician if you are concerned about your current health.

UPDATE:  The Master Herbalist has a new forum to play on and answer questions: The Barefoot Way Forum

Good luck!
