Iron is the mineral that conveys oxygen to the brain. It contains carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen (the CHO chain). When you are deficient in iron, you are susceptible to a whole bunch of diseases. Iron is the spark plug of the human body and it is the only mineral on the planet that is magnetic. Being that iron is magnetic it has a tendency to pull other minerals to it. It pulls magnesium, zinc, gold, calcium, phosphorous, etc. So when you take iron you are taking all other minerals at a proportionate balance. Iron also dissolves inflammation, meaning that it can shrink and eventually remove tumors. Anemia and diabetes are not the only diseases that a lack of iron can cause. The lack of iron can cause up to 40 manifestations of disease. Without iron the body loses energy and the immune system, which protects you from all disease begins to give way. There is no oxygen going to the brain when iron is low, which undermines your thinking. Without iron we wrinkle at a young age and can no longer walk with a straight back. The body naturally uses the amount of 3 tablespoons of iron a day. Dr. Sebi recommends 2 tablespoons 3 times a day. Cut down on unhealthy food. Drink alkaline herbs (essential). Prepare yourself for a fast. Fruit fast, salad fast, smoothie fast. (We have a fasting plan on our website eattolivenottodie.com) Then transition to an alkaline diet/lifestyle. Transitioning can take months and even years. But it's all down to your DISCIPLINE & LOVE FOR SELF, & SACRIFICE. It's not a race. Patients is your only friend. THE HERBS MENTIONED BELOW ARE ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL TO REBUILDING YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM & REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS & ESPECIALLY IRON. Drink them as teas. They contain high amounts of IRON FLUORINE and other essential minerals. Seamoss is also essential for overall well being. Iron is something we should drink forever. Not just because we are sick. It maintains the whole body. Inside and outside.
CONSUMING BAD FOODS
When someone consumes beans, rice, milk, cheese, butter and eggs, by the time that person reaches the age of 30 there is already a manifestation of disease. Because the mucous membrane has been compromised to the acid foods that we've been ingesting. In that breaking down of the cells, the part that suffers first is the brain. The body is presented with stress and the thought pattern changes. only eat live alkaline plant foods from the Dr. Sebi Nutritional Guide while you are on your cleanse and only consumed fresh juice (smoothies), water, sea mos, fruits, and vegetables.
Everything branches off iron, if you don't have it you will have to deal with the symptons until you take action. if you are just starting out, focus on cleansing the colon before you focus on iron. you can not wax a dirty car.
DISEASE Disease - Every disease is caused by the deprivation of oxygen. The only thing that causes the body to go into erosion is acid. Mucous causes erosion in the body. The erosion is the deprivation of oxygen. Herpes lives off of sugars and starch.
MUCOUS MEMBRANE There is only one disease and that is the result of the mucous membrane being compromised. The mucous membrane is necessary to maintain health because it is the membrane that protects the cells. When you brake the mucous membrane down it turns to pus and expose the cells.
