Web Store Website Bulletin Board

My purpose is to educate you on low- and no-cost ways others have achieved and maintained vibrant good health. Like anything else, if you want it done right, you have to do it yourself. Because everyone's body is different, you must learn what will work for you.

"The Master Cleanse is a modified juice fast developed by Stanley Burroughs more than 60 years ago. Burroughs' booklet The Master Cleanser, which describes the fast is still in print, but lacks details and may leave the reader with more than a few unanswered questions. Peter Glickman, while searching for the means to reclaim his own health, discovered the Master Cleanse and did it for the first time in January of 2003. Glickman was so pleased with his results from the fast that he decided to add an electronic bulletin board to his raw food website to help spread the word about the Master Cleanse and to provide a forum where interested participants could share their experiences and ask those questions not answered by Burroughs' book.

"The positive response to the Master Cleanse bulletin board and the lack of details in Burroughs' booklet led Glickman to write a more detailed book on the Master Cleanse titled Lose Weight, Have More Energy & Be Happier in 10 Days (now in its 2nd edition). Glickman spends about one-fourth of his book detailing what one should and should not do in order to receive the best possible benefits from the cleanse. The remainder of the book is filled with key selections from the Master Cleanse bulletin board. While all the included posts are on the Master Cleanse board, it would take a reader many hours over several days to ferret out this information and much of it might be missed. Glickman's efforts to pull all this information together under one cover enables the reader to immediately benefit from the combined experience of dozens of participants, who did the cleanse and asked and answered practically every question a reader may have. Topics discussed include detailed discussions on the cleanse itself, medications, surgery, illness, the ingredients used for the lemon drink, participants' experiences, correctly ending the cleanse, transitioning to eating again, women's issues, pregnancy, how often the cleanse can be done and much more.

"I have read both Burroughs' and Glickman's books and found Lose Weight, Have More Energy & Be Happier in 10 Days to be priceless for the treasure trove of information it contains. I am currently doing my first Master Cleanse and I credit Peter Glickman's hard work and selfless effort for the excellent benefits I am experiencing.

"This book will change your life—count on it!"

1. Soaking in an Epsom Salt bath can correct your magnesium deficiency!

Magnesium, the second-most abundant element in human cells and a major component of Epsom Salt, helps to regulate the activity of more than 325 enzymes and performs a vital role in muscle control, energy production and the elimination of harmful toxins.

The Epsom Salt Industry Council (ESIC) reports that magnesium may:

* Ease stress and improve sleep and concentration
* Help muscles and nerves function properly
* Regulate activity of 325+ enzymes
* Help prevent artery hardening and blood clots
* Make insulin more effective
* Reduce inflammation to relieve pain and muscle cramps
* Improve oxygen use

The National Academy of Sciences, however, reports that most Americans are magnesium deficient, helping to account for our society's high rate of heart disease, stroke, osteoporosis, arthritis, joint pain, digestive problems, chronic fatigue and other ailments. The Academy estimates the average American male gets only 80% of the magnesium required for good health, while females get only 70% of their recommended levels. The ESIC reports that Americans' magnesium levels have dropped more than 50% in the past century.

This drop is due to a variety of factors including intensive farming practices that deplete magnesium from the soil and the fact that magnesium is not a standard component in most fertilizers. So, a diet that would have supplied enough magnesium a century ago may not supply enough today.

Aggravating the problem is the current American diet, which is rich in fat, sugar, salt and protein. This diet not only contains less magnesium than a healthy balanced diet, but these foods actually accelerate the depletion of magnesium from our systems.

So, too, does our use of calcium as an antidote for bone disease because calcium drains magnesium from the body. You see, calcium can only function when sufficient magnesium is present. The ESIC reports that taking a calcium supplement without ensuring the body also receives enough magnesium can result in a shortage of both nutrients. The ESIC goes on to say that researchers have found most Americans have five times as much calcium as magnesium in their bodies; however, the proper ratio for optimum absorption of both minerals is about two to one.

So, how can you remedy your shortage? Add two cups of Epsom Salt to your standard-sized bath. (Double this amount for an oversized tub.) Do this three times weekly; soaking for at least 12 minutes each time.

"Over and over I explain to patients, 'Your pain, misery and illness results from your own dietary mistakes and drugs. You are suffering because you are filled with toxic wastes caused by your diet of poorly selected food filled with artificial flavorings, preservatives, synthetics, and over-processed ingredients—too much stimulating food and too few natural vitamins from vegetables and fruits....' "

2. My mailbag: I don't need to lose weight.

The number of emails I receive every day makes it difficult to personally answer all of them in the time I have. However, each week I select one that has been asked by many people and answer it here.

Q: I don't need or want to lose weight; I'm fit, strong and at (or slightly below) the standards for my ideal weight—female, 41 years old, 5'9", 130-132 lbs. I also know that I have toxic waste buildup due to recurring eczema, so I need to detox. It's the weight loss that concerns me.

A: Stanley Burroughs, in The Master Cleanser, says the only things you can lose are "mucus, waste, and disease." I can confirm that the one extremely skinny lady I know who did the Master Cleanse only lost 2 pounds in the first three days and after that didn't lose any more weight. Burroughs also says many people who need to gain weight do so near the end of the diet.

Richard Anderson, doctor of naturopathy (treatment of disease through diet, and other natural means) in his book, Cleanse and Purify Thyself, explains that people who are too skinny are so because they can't absorb sufficient nutrients in their digestive system. He also says that a cleanse/fast improves their digestion and permits them to gain weight.

"I've done four cleanses and have lost a total of 60 lbs. I consider that a success story! You might not consider self-control a big deal, but for me it is. I have been able to keep off my weight between cleanses and I have cravings for healthy foods. I have more energy, feel better and look better than I have in 25 years. I also had an age spot that was growing and getting dark on my face that has completely gone away without any medical intervention."

"I was healed from food obsession doing the MC!! Nothing else worked as well as that did for me, and it also cured my sweet tooth that I have carried around with me for a long time (switching to 60-70% raw aided in that as well); plus I lost cellulite & weight, regained vitality & energy, and took 10 years off of my face!!

"I am on day 30, the final day of my first MC. What a wild ride! The last few days have been the most difficult, but I am glad I hung in. ... Here is what happened for me.

1. "I have had acute fibromyalgia for 20 years and have been disabled because of it. Since day 3, I have not had a whisper of pain. So it is obvious to me that it is something caused by eating. Now I can arrange my life to be free of pain.
2. "Edema—serious and of 10 year duration—with no found cause. Completely gone. I have ankles!
3. "Dry scaly skin—have baby skin now.
4. "IBS—gone
5. "Able to cut my heart medication in half.
6. "Pain from an old break in my foot—totally gone
7. "Sleep disorder gone—sleeping like a baby
8. "Lingering grief [gone]—spent several days during the fast detoxing grief and literally on my face on the floor with it. I learned how to let my emotions pass through me and out, just like the SWF. Now, I am not stuck. I am not afraid of emotional pain anymore.
9. "[I] could never tolerate an empty feeling. Now I love it! I have become friends with hunger and it has become my friend—it opens up a more refined state of consciousness for me.
10. "Lost 25 pounds!!!"

2. Set aside the finely chopped almonds in a large bowl.

5. Add 1/2 teaspoon of orange zest (the skin of the orange without any white part).
6. Optional: Add the juice of 1/2 of the orange to make the batter softer.
7. Food process until the dates form a ball which spins around the container.
8. Remove and place in the bowl with the almonds.
9. Kneed the nuts and dates with your hands until well mixed.
10. Press the crust into a pie dish.

Filling

Fill the pie dish with sliced or diced bananas.

Make a cream filling using pine nuts or macadamia nuts.

1. 1 cup of pine nuts or macadamia nuts,
2. 1/4 cup orange juice, and
3. 2-4 dates blended in a blender until super smooth and creamy.

Pour the cream filling over the top of the bananas and indulge!

"I love how I feel on the Master Cleanse! I tell my husband how good "emptiness feels". I intend to continue to fast Thurs/Fridays each week. Since June I have done a 14-day and a 10-day. I plan another 10- day the 2nd week in September.

"It's interesting to see my schedule and plan for a cleanse as a matter of
focus, energy and well being, it's easier than eating.

"Thanks, Peter. God Bless You"
