THE BIO-RHYTHMS OF THE HUMAN BODY
All creatures including human beings on this planet are naturally attuned and
subject to three life cycles. These cycles have precise and established hours set by the UNIVERSAL LAWS OF NATURE.
BODY
CYCLE #1 THE ELIMINATION CYCLE
Your body's elimination cycle starts at 4:00 AM and ends at 12:00 NOON. During this
cycle the body eliminates body-producing poisons, waste matter and materials, salts, proteins, and uric acids in liquid, solid,
and gaseous forms. During this cycle, it is optimal to feed the body adequate amounts of fresh organic seasonal fruit and
fresh fruit juice. This creates an ideal environment to support the body's cleansing and elimination processes.
BODY
CYCLE #2 APPROPRIATION
The appropriation cycle starts at 12:00 NOON and ends at 4:00 PM. During this cycle the body
takes in and stores food to process them later. Then the body starts an absorption process of the foods. The body is supported
during this cycle by eating fresh raw vegetables for lunch (a salad) with a starch source to help support the body's biochemical
balance.
BODY CYCLE #3 THE ASSIMILATION CYCLE
The assimilation cycle starts at 8:00 PM and ends at 4:00 AM,
which then starts the elimination cycle, etc. The assimilation cycle is the time to heal, build, and re-energize. During this
cycle the body assimilates all the foods given that day and utilizes them for the rebuilding, reconstruction, and the regeneration
of the entire human body. Hormone production occurs during this time, as does the continuing release of certain toxins.
****VERY
IMPORTANT****
It is important to retire to bed early (sundown or before 10:00 PM at the latest) in order to receive
the beneficial regenerative electro-magnetic fields of the earth.
Sleeping 2 to 5 hours before 12:00 midnight enables
our bodies to increase the natural healing powers and immune system necessary to restore health. It also increases the flushing
effect of the elimination process that starts in the morning during the elimination cycle. Sleep in complete darkness or as
close as possible. When light hits the eyes, it disrupts the sleep rhythm of the pineal gland and production of melatonin
and seratonin. There also should be as little light in the bathroom as possible if you get up in the middle of the night.
Animals wake up when the sun rises and go to bed when the sun sets.
Introduction to Diet Plan
When possible,
consume fruits and vegetables that are organic (pesticide free), seasonal, and fresh. Select meats, if consumed, which are
pesticide, antibiotic and hormone free.
Drinking water or beverages with meals dilutes the digestive juices, which slows
down the digestion process. Try to drink water between meals. Or less than 8 ounces with meals.
GENERAL INFORMATION
ABOUT FOODS
Fruits pass through the digestive system very rapidly. They usually leave the stomach within 30 minutes
and enter the small intestine, where they continue to digest. But if you eat them with other foods (such as a protein or a
starch) they take 3-5 hours to digest, the fruit is held up and starts to ferment. This means poor assimilation of nutrients
but, more importantly, it sets up a perfect environment for yeast overgrowth, as they feed off the sugar produced from the
fermentation.
MIXING PROTEINS & STARCHES
The gastric juices contain three enzymes, which act upon proteins,
fats, and milk. They are pepsin, lipase, and rennin respectively. Protein digestion requires an acid environment initiated
by the secretion of pepsin into the stomach. Pepsin splits the protein molecule forming hydrochloric acid. As the stomach
gains in acidity, while digesting protein, starch digestion comes to an end. We may say that those conditions, which are optimum
for protein digestion, exclude starch digestion and worse than that, the introduction of the starch almost neutralizes the
acid, deactivating both enzymes, creating the climate for putrefaction. ** Beets, potatoes, white rice, cauliflower, and other
starches make poor combinations with proteins. DO NOT MIX PROTEINS WITH STARCHES IN THE SAME MEAL. This is the biggest mistake
people can make. A starch would be potatoes, white rice, bread, etc.
MIXING ACIDS AND STARCHES
The digestion
of starches begins in the mouth with an enzyme called "Ptyalin." Saliva, high in ptyalin, is secreted by the salivary
glands and reduces starch to maltose, which is reduced in the intestine to dextrose. Ptyalin will not activate in a mildly
acidic or strong alkaline environment. The old adage, "chew your food 100 times" is not only for mastication, but
to mix ptyalin with starchy foods. Proper digestion begins in the mouth by proper chewing! The acid in regular vinegar, grapefruits,
lemons, or other sour fruits will completely stop the action of ptyalin, resulting in a poorly digested meal that will likely
putrefy, decreasing the nutritional value and nutritional quality of the digested foods. DO NOT MIX ACIDS WITH STARCHES IN
THE SAME MEAL
MIXING ACIDS AND PROTEINS
Pepsin (a protein digesting enzyme) will act favorably in an acid environment;
therefore, one might suppose that the addition of more acids, such as citrus fruits, might improve the digestive process.
This is not so! The addition of citrus or other acids stops the secretion of the gastric juices necessary for the digestion
of the proteins. Either the pepsin will not be secreted in the presence of an acid, or the acidic environment will destroy
the pepsin. Any acid eaten on a salad (vinegar or lemon), eaten with a protein meal stops the production of hydrochloric acid
by pepsin interfering with protein digestion. There is an exception to this rule; acids may be combined with nuts and seeds
because the high fat content of these foods will postpone gastric secretion until the acids have been assimilated into the
body. Use nuts or seeds with dinner salad to neutralize salad dressing.
MIXING ACIDS WITH PROTEINS OR SUGARS AND PROTEINS
If
two distinctly different high proteins (animal proteins) are eaten together, the amount of digestive secretions for each may
serve to stop the action of the other. The body modifies the digestive process to the requirements of each food. Suppose milk
was eaten with meat, this would initiate a highly acidic reaction, which would upset the proportion of pepsin and lipase acting
on the meat. Both proteins would be incompletely digested. Non-starchy vegetables make the best combinations with proteins.
