Re: EDIT: Re: Anemia and fasting?

NutNut ,
not entirely sure what u mean by: "human beings are more preoccupied with their own agendas than double checking the records".

I am assuming you mean my own agenda: whatever that may be in your own opinion? but I can tell you it is based on altruism and humanitarianism.

Absolutely, we should always be looking for "verifiable proof" so if you count the number of people who have been helped and mostly cured of their "incurable diseases" by water-only-fasting, and after being the rounds of Mainstream already, they number into the hundreds of thousands if not millions.

This is a democratic forum so you may disagree all you wish, but that does not alter the facts of the matter.

I believe you brought the word "Haemoconcentration" into the equation, but I used it as an illustration of the ability of the body to self-heal by raising the blood count into normal levels, which is brought about by reduced plasma levels and dehydration.
However, (and in contrast) the fast does not result in reduced plasma levels, or dehydration, unless done so voluntarily and where the raised blood counts are of a permanent nature.
*************************************************

To illustrate.........
"Wm. H. Hay, M.D., in his Health Via Diet tells of caring for 101 cases of progressive pernicious anemia, during twenty-one years by fasting, correct diet and colonic irrigation. Of these 101 cases he says that 8 failed of initial recovery. Part of the recoveries were made permanent by right living. Some of those who relapsed resorted once more to the fast and again recovered.....................

........................The first 13 cases of progressive pernicious anemia which Dr. Hay placed upon a fast recovered in from two weeks to longer. The fourteenth case, being in a dying condition when she arrived, did not recover. Dr. Hay says: "The blood during a fast undergoes no visible changes as to cell count unless markedly abnormal when the fast is begun in which case there is a return to normal." * * * "For most of two weeks (in progressive pernicious anemia) the red, erethrocyte, count continues to fall before there is a regeneration in the blood-making organs; then gradually the microscopic picture begins to show round erethrocytes with regular edges, no crenations or irregularities, and soon there is a noticeable increase in number of these with gradual disappearance of the adventitious (accidental or acquired; not natural or hereditary) cells present in the beginning".

It is worthy of note that there are cases on record where in the event of a serious loss of blood through either injury or accident, and where if this loss of blood is stemmed, then the body will make-up this shortfall from its food-reserves with no medical intervention or assistance. This also occurs after menstruating heavily at that time of the month, or after a blood donor has given an eighth of their blood volume.

The body is after all a self-maintaining, self-cleansing, and self-repairing organism, given the ideal conditions and circumstances for this to take place, and where digestive energy is utilized to its maximum in the fasting state to those ends.

If you are looking for absolute proof then I suggest you experiment with your own body as to what the fast may do for you.

I respect your right to disagree and where this is not a debate forum, so best to leave the matter there, and concentrate on more useful and productive pursuits.
