Introduction/Questions

[Guest guest]

Hi Everyone,

 

I joined this group a couple of days ago. I must admit I'm a little

overwhelmed with the variety of posts - information overload, you

might say. My husband will soon have surgery for the removal of a

kidney due to cancer. I want to get him excited about the " raw food "

way of life. I know the cleansing and herbal treatments are

important too but we can't jump in full tilt... we need to get

started and add other things to his program of recovery.

 

So: Can you suggest some good books or sources for presenting raw

foods to the table? Where do I start in finding a good raw diet?

 

Thanks for this group. All information is important and appreciated.

Linda,

 

When my wife was laying in the hospital I read (for myself) Dr

Andrew Weil's book called " Spontaneous Healing "

 

In reading this book it first allows you to fully grasp the power

the " mind " has in healing, one has to " WANT " to get well. That's

half the battle. The actual stories are amazing.

 

One note about the book which I can attest to is that Dr Weil

humorously commented that in all his years as a doctor, he has

NEVER seen anyone sick who is MADLY IN LOVE !!! (or something to

that effect) He said he just can't find a way to " bottle " that

product !!

 

What he was driving at is the ability take control of your health

with help from the mind, not just diet.

Hi Bill,

Strange but true I just came from Dr. Weil's website. He was on

Larry King tonight. I just may follow your pattern and buy the

book. I realize the importance of treating the whole person...

 

Question though: How did reading the book help your wife? I can

see it must have helped YOU. Chuck would go for dietary changes and

food supplements and maybe H2O2 cures or Teas... He may be open to

the spiritual side of healing too. How will I know unless I try? If

I read the book, I may be able to influence him to some degree.

 

Thanks for your interest.

Linda, the links section on the group home page has many resources through links

to specific web sites and materials. One I found very helpful was the site

www.hacres.com with a comprehensive approach, simple and straightforward

information and direction to start without having prior knowledge. The person

that started the site was healed of cancer over 30 years ago and has helped

millions since. Best Regards
