Quotes
on the idea of Cleansing the
Body through Fasting and Other
Methods
"Humans live on one-quarter
of what they eat; on the other
three-quarters lives their
doctor."--Egyptian pyramid
inscription, 3800 B.C.
"Life is slow suicide.
Nine humans in ten are suicides."--Ben
Franklin, American statesperson,
scientist, inventor &
writer
"Very few people know
what real health is, because
most are occupied with killing
themselves slowly."--Albert
Szent-Gyorgyi, Hungarian-born
American biochemist, Nobel
Prize for discoveries relating
to biological combustion,
first to isolate vitamin C
"Fasting is, without
any doubt, the most effective
biological method of treatment.
It is the 'operation without
surgery'. It is a cure involving
exudation, reattunement, redirection,
loosening up and purified
relaxation. While fasting,
the patient improves her or
his physical health and gains
much. But he or she will have
neglected the most important
thing if the hunger for spiritual
nourishment that manifests
itself during fasting is not
satisfied." Otto Buchinger,
Sr., M.D., Germany's self-described
"fasting therapist"
"Everyone has a doctor
in him or her; we just have
to help it in its work. The
natural healing force within
each one of us is the greatest
force in getting well. Our
food should be our medicine.
Our medicine should be our
food. But to eat when you
are sick, is to feed your
sickness." --Hippocrates,
M.D., 460?-370? B.C., Father
of Western Medicine
"Every patient carries
her or his own doctor inside."
Albert Schweitzer, M.D., 1875-1965,
Alsatian medical missionary,
theologian and musician
"The doctor of the future
will give no medicine, but
will interest her or his patients
in the care of the human frame,
in proper diet, and in the
cause and prevention of disease."
--Thomas Edison, 1847-1931,
America's greatest inventive
mind (incandescent lamp, phonograph,
microphone, et. al.)
"Fasting is by far the
most effective method for
purifying the blood, organs,
and all bodily tissues, and
in this age of pervasive pollution
it is more important than
ever in warding off premature
degeneration of the body due
to toxicity. In laboratory
tests on rats and other animals,
periodic fasting has proven
to extend average life spans
by up to 50 per cent."
-- Jos-hua Medicine Man -

"In a fast we can observe
the body gleefully going about
getting rid of the toxins
and wastes accumulated for
years with the greatest capability
and intelligence, all of its
own." Dr. William Esser
"Nothing is more gratifying,
no work more inspiring, than
actually to witness complete
recovery during comparitively
short periods of fasting in
diseases such as chronic eczma,
urticaria of years standing,
variscose ulcers, gastric
and duodenal ulcers, asthma,
arthritis, colitis, amoebic
dysentery, endocarditis, sinusitis,
bronchitis, neuritis, Bright's
disease, acute and chronic
appendicitis, tic douloureux,
fistula, psoriasis, all kinds
of digestive disorders---urinary
and bilary calculi, pellagra,
glaucoma, lump on the breast,
epithelioma, mirraine, acidosis,
pupura, hemorrhagica, epilepsy,
parlysis agitans, Reynaud's
disease."---George Weger,
M.D

| Advantages of Distance
Learning |
There are several advantages to taking
courses online instead of
in a traditional classroom.
Here are a few:
-
Taking online courses from home
doesn't require commuting.
This saves you time
and money; Time that
you don't have to spend
in the car and money
that you don't have
to spend on gas and
car maintenance.
-
You can complete most of the coursework
for online classes when
it's convenient for
you. Most online courses
are asynchronous, which
means you don't have
to attend a lecture
at a particular place
and time. You can review
what would traditionally
be lecture material
and work on assignments
before or after work,
during your lunch hour,
or after the kids have
gone to bed-whenever
it best fits your schedule.
-
Being able to take classes from
home and working on
assignments on your
own schedule enable
you to be home with
your children. This
can save you child care
costs.
-
Online courses address physical
accessibility issues
that some disabled persons
and senior citizens
encounter when taking
traditional classes.
You don't have to worry
about gaining access
to a campus building
or being forced to sit
in uncomfortable desks
for one or more hours
at a time. Instead,
you access the course
materials from home
through your computer.
The furniture you use
is your own so it's
most likely comfortable.
And you have the luxury
of being able to get
up and stretch whenever
you need to do so without
interrupting an entire
classroom full of students.
