Shirley's Testimonial: How I achieved optimum health after a lifetime of suffering
http://www.shirleys-wellness-cafe.com/author.htm
In 1982 my doctor told me that I had to have a mastectomy because my body was no longer responding to medication.
But I was determined to not let them cut off my breast.
I had had enough of orthodox medicine; I knew I had to change direction to improve my overall health and vitality.
I visited a naturopathic doctor who explained to me that the combination of an unhealthy diet and the huge number of allopathic medications I had taken for years, had caused toxins to accumulate in my blood, lymph, and tissues, resulting in toxemia.
These toxins contributed greatly to my weak immune system and rendered me more susceptible to stress, fatigue, and chronic disease.
The naturopathic doctor pointed out that I had to radically change my diet if there was any hope for improving my miserable health.
The road to my health recovery
The naturopath (who was also a homeopath ) made me switch my diet from SAD (an acronym for "Standard American Diet") to a wholesome diet of fresh, organically grown fruits, vegetables, and nuts, mostly in their raw form.
In time, I learned to prepare delicious and nutritious meals made entirely of RAW foods and I never felt deprived or hungry (more about raw food recipes) I cut the starchy stuff like grains, rice, pasta, and breads nearly completely out of my diet and at the time I totally eliminated meat and dairy products.
I then began homeopathic treatment.
The results of the diet change and homeopathic treatment were dramatic. In 6 weeks, the lumps in my breast were completely gone.
(cause/prevention/natural cures of breast cancer).
In 12 weeks I had lost 60 pounds effortlessly (and never had to struggle again to keep my weight down) and my energy level and stamina improved dramatically. I was able to function better overall.
I became calmer, centered and focused, and generally I felt happier. My overall resistance to infections became excellent, and I'm proud to say that in the past 20 years I have not had a cold, flu, ear, throat, sinus or breast infection or any other infections.
I was amazed that even my debilitating back pains responded to the homeopathic treatment and the change of diet.
Years later, after I had fully recovered my health, I reintroduced very small amounts of animal products into my diet. I do my best to always eat foods in their natural raw form.
When I steam or stir fry, I do it only to slightly wilt and warm up the food, leaving it crunchy and still partially raw.
I also learned, that contrary to popular belief, healthy oils such as flaxoil, olive oil, grapeseed oil, and coconut oil can help control my weight and improve my health.
(Eat Fat, Lose Weight : The Right Fats Can Make You Thin for Life )
When I eat animal products, I try to always eat it in a raw form: smoked or salt-cured meats or fishes, raw or soft egg yolks, and raw butter and cheese made from unpasteurized cow or goat milk from organic farms.
(Why I leave the highly refined, rapidly absorbable carbohydrates alone, and I mean cane and beet sugar in all forms and guises, all cereal flours which means breads, pies, cakes, spaghetti, macaroni, etc., all refined cereal products such as cold and hot breakfast cereals, the quickly absorbable carbohydrate vegetables, potatoes, corn, and rice, and all sweet soft drinks.)
If I overeat on the fish, meat or dairy foods, or if I eat the wrong foods like starch, or cooked food, I suffer the consequences fairly rapidly in the form of clogged sinuses, nasal discharges, poor sleep, nervousness, irritability, and low energy.
To me, that punishment is not worth the brief moment of pleasure for my taste buds.
Over the years, my health and resistance to disease continued to improve and in time I also experienced a complete recovery from my life long chronic eczema and from the devastating side effects of the steroid's immune suppressive effects.
I was so impressed with the improvement of my overall health that in the privacy of my home I began to study Homeopathy , Uropathy (urine therapy) the healing power of living (raw) foods, Natural Hygiene, Chinese medicine and tonic herbs.
I read hundreds of medical case histories with "miraculous" recoveries or cures after patients switched from allopathic to holistic programs and from cooked food to RAW food.
A few years later I also discovered the fantastic healing power of bentonite and pascalite clay, fulvic minerals & shilajit, wheatgrass juice, organic unrefined sea salt, (not common table salt) and therapeutic filtered water
I never microwave anything and I never use the following in my diet: sugar free products, canola oil, and soy products. learn why.
I learned to care for myself, my family and my pets with homeopathy and herbal remedies instead of rushing off for a consultation with an MD or a veterinarian for minor injuries or sickness, knowing that the MD or veterinarian would probably just push antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs, or expensive medical tests.
I cured my lifelong chronic eczema with natural means and my skin has never looked more beautiful and youthful.
Occasionally, if needed, I would also get acupuncture or chiropractic treatments with fantastic results.
For example, in the mid nineties, I came down with the shingles, a very painful nerve disease with skin eruption which can leave a person debilitated and in excruciating pain for the rest of his/her life.
I didn't see a physician, a dermatologist or a neurologist.
Instead, I took mega doses of vitamin B complex and other vitamins, homeopathic remedies and herbal extracts, and went to see my Chinese acupuncturist.
Within a week all pain and symptoms of the disease had vanished. (my testimonial about healing shingles)
Breast tumor: On August 6, 1999, I discovered by accident a non-painful lump the size of an olive, in my right breast.
I did not rush to a doctor for medical advice or to test for malignancy.
Instead I began self help with homeopathic and herbal treatments at home: I took the herbal remedies Hoxsey formula, Essiac tea, and Cat's Claw.
I also took the homeopathic remedies PHYTOLACCA and CARBO ANIMALIS.
I continued to strictly adhere to my RAW food diet, flaxoil, and increased my carrot, parsley and wheatgrass juice intake.
On August 11, (5 days later) my lump had shrunk to 1/2 its size and by August 23, the lump was completely gone, reabsorbed by my body and has not returned to this day.

Sciatica: I have experienced miraculous relief from paralyzing pains of sciatica attacks with castor oil packs and with magnetic therapy which I do in the comfort of my home.
I do the castor oil packs on the right side of my abdomen over the liver area for about a couple of hours several times a week.
I secure the flexible magnets on the various pain areas on my back and along my thigh and leg. These are very simple and powerful healing modalities.
The Foundation Of My Good Health
To this day, the foundation of my good health and strong vitality is maintained with the following on a daily basis: Every morning I drink one glass of filtered water with real salt.
In the evening I drink 6 to 8 ounces of combination of wheatgrass and other green juices. I maintain a primarily raw food diet (organically grown food). I take plenty of rest, I exercise daily by doing yoga and taking long walks in the hills and I sunbathe almost everyday for an hour (without sunscreen lotion) in our magnificiant Southern California climate.
(Contrary to popular opinion the sun is important to maintain health.)
I do not subject my body to routine physicals, or medical tests (mammography, pap smear, etc).
I'm 54 years old and I have consciously avoided medical doctors, their tests, their drugs and their vaccines for over 20 years and I vow to stay out of their paths for as long as I live.
(I do have the highest respect for dentists and for surgeons who can perform miracles in patching up a body and save lives in trauma situations).

I'm rarely ill anymore, but if/when I do become sick with an minor acute sickness, my favored healing method is simple:
I take homeopathic and/or herbal remedies, I fast on water and rest in bed for a few days. When given complete rest (physically as in resting, physiologically as in fasting) the body can direct all its energy toward repairing itself.
Our bodies have the supreme intelligence to KNOW how to do a fantastic repair job, as long as it is not being poisoned with drugs and bad food and as long as it is given all the rest it needs and the opportunity to detoxify itself.
(A good source of information about natural self healing is Dr. Schulze's website)
When ill or injured, I also request Reiki distance energy healing (a telepathic transference of Divine Healing Energy) from a long time trusted healer.
The drug companies spend billions of dollars to influence the American public toward believing that putting poison into our bodies is O.K."
Articles in the prestigious Journal of the American Medical Association acknowledge that adverse reactions to doctor prescribed drugs and medical mistakes are the third highest cause of deaths in America today
