Re: I would bet...

I may not post here as much as I once did, but I faithfully, follow the protocol. I have taken a few breaks and my progress to repair and improve slowed noticeably each time.

NOTE: progress did not stop due to my strict adherence to the highest quality organic food I can find and other practices such as oil pulling.

As Jerry Burnetti said, we must have the internal buffers (reserves as ML puts it) to combat or fight the chemical assault our bodies deal with on a daily basis. If we do not get at least even with this assault, we will slide backwards and get sick. Ideally we can get ourselves a little ahead of it.

Not the same words, but exactly the same thing ML has been trying to drill into those that visit here.

It can take years for a very sick person to do this as they MUST start more slowly than someone of strong constitution.
