7. Questions & Answers

I have been on a regimen of two fruit meals per day, one in the morning and the other at noon with a raw vegetable plate in the evening at which I alternate a starch food one day with a protein food the next day. But, I don 't seem to be improving. In fact, the rash on my face has actually grown worse. What should I do?

Your reverse progress is actually evidence of stepped-up body elimination, thus indicating that your vitalities and energies are imputing. The body does a general housecleaning first of all when its conditions are improved and you're no exception. If you want to get the elimination over with more quickly, go on a fast. If you want to continue to improve more slowly but faster than now, you might consider an all-fruit diet or meals of a single fruit. If you want to slow your body improvements so that symptoms do not exhibit, replace a fruit meal with another salad and a single concentrated food, thus eating a starch meal with a salad and a protein/fat meal each day with a salad.

I am a married man and my wife is in total disagreement with me on the advisability of my continuing with the Hygienic program. This keeps me on an emotional roller coaster. Is this at all helpful and how can I handle this situation?

This is a problem that often arises. In such a case, one has an important decision to make. Which is more important, one's future health or domestic peace at this time? It seems to me that we must separate ourselves emotionally and dietetically from the masses else we will end up as they, more often than not, which is prematurely dead or subject to the "mercy" of the medical establishment warehoused in some institution. If we make the correct choice, which can only be a physiologically-sound way of eating and living, the Hygienic way, then we will enjoy the fruits of a life well lived: superior health for a lifetime.

Will I ever really enjoy this way of eating? I see an advertisement, for pizza on the television and my mouth waters. I just don't enjoy this food and I have no appetite for it.

I guarantee you that if you stay on your correct diet, assuming it is Hygienically correct, you will, within a very few months, be totally committed to it, not only because you feel and look better but because you are now discovering new and exciting tastes formerly completely unknown to you. In fact, no one would ever be able to talk you into any other way of eating! Keep on your program. Let nature convince you of its merits and of its delights.

I have been on this program for two months and I now not only have all the boils I used to have but I also have headaches and occasional pains in my fingers. I am getting discouraged and depressed. Should I keep on?

By all means! What you are experiencing sometimes occurs and actually should tell you that your program is doing the work. The elimination from the skin is continuing and even accelerating indicating that your vitality is at a higher level than formerly. The pain in your fingers is no doubt caused by poisons entering the bloodstream from that area on their way out of the body. Remember that these acid wastes have a tendency to irritate nerve endings. This may occasion mild pain at times. Hot applications may help. Do not take drugs to relieve the pain. Bear with it. It should be alleviated shortly. Once the poisons have made a suitable exodus from the blood and other body fluids, the pain AND the boils will be no more! Don't give up now when you have proof that your new diet and lifestyle are producing positive results.
