OVERVIEW OF NUTRITIONAL BALANCING PROGRAMS
We now offer, under the supervision of highly skilled professionals customized programs.
How The Program Works. Illness, in fact, develops in stages. It begins as early as when one is in the womb because most of our mothers were nutritionally deficient and had excessive levels of toxic metals in their bodies. They also had too many toxic chemicals in their bodies, in most cases.
Some of these are passed on to the fetus in the womb, and for this reason, most children today begin life rather unhealthy, no matter healthy they may appear. This is clearly revealed on the hair tissue mineral analyses of most babies and infants. Most have too many toxic metals and almost all have nutrient deficiencies.
Once one is born, most children’s health becomes far worse. The very worst insult to a baby’s health is vaccination, in my experience. It is extremely destructive because the child’s immune system cannot cope with the mercury, aluminum, other preservatives and stray viral contaminants that almost all vaccines contain. The younger the baby, the worse it is to be vaccinated. Combinations of vaccines such as the DPT and MMR, or just several at one visit are also far worse for a baby or child’s health. Never, ever allow a doctor to give more than one vaccine at a visit.
Other horrors for babies and children include feeding sugars in any form to babies and children. Even eating fruit or fruit juices severely upsets most children’s sensitive digestive tract and other systems of the body. Babies should be breastfed for three years, if at all possible.
Giving babies and children medical drugs such as antibiotics is another insult to their sensitive bodies. Accidents, injuries, and chronic infections also worsen health.
As children grow older, stress from school, peer pressure, more medical drugs and exposure to toxic metals and chemicals in skin care products, occupational exposure, sexually transmitted diseases and more all adds to the imbalances in the body.
True, deep healing must involve a reversal of this process. It means removing the toxic metals, toxic chemicals, vaccine effects, and medical drugs from the body, and renourishing and rebalancing the body chemistry. It often produces fast symptomatic results, but to be truly effective most people should stay on a nutritional balancing program for several years, at least. In this manner, nutritional balancing is nothing less than a complete reversal of the causes of illness, and not simply removing symptoms with remedies.
This approach uses hair tissue mineral testing in a unique way developed by Dr. Paul C. Eck of Phoenix, Arizona, and further refined by myself and others. The first tissue mineral analysis reveals the top layer of imbalances that are present and ready to be corrected. One addresses what is revealed on the test with diet, supplementary nutrients, lifestyle modification, extra detoxification procedures and a particular mental/spiritual exercise that helps ground and center a person.
After several months on this program, a retest hair analysis will reveal a deeper layer of your body’s metabolism. Often, it will look quite different from the previous layer when one follows the nutritional healing program. Uncovering and reversing layers of adaptations and compensations, a process called retracing, requires a little time and persistence, but is far more permanent and health-producing than simply chasing symptoms with remedies such as the use of most vitamins, herbs, homeopathy, yoga classes or medical drugs.
THE RECOMMENDATIONS
These includes:
1. A healthful diet of mainly cooked vegetables with some animal-quality protein and a little whole grains daily. The diet will be based on your metabolic type, but only as determined by a properly performed hair mineral analysis. We find that metabolic typing based on anything else, such as blood tests or questionnaires, is not reliable enough. The diet is quite specific. If you deviate, your results will not be nearly as good.
The centerpiece of the diet is cooked vegetables, eaten at least twice daily to comprise about 70-80% of the diet. The next important category is animal quality protein such as meats, eggs, raw dairy products such as cheese, yogurt and up to about 6 ounces of raw milk, if available, or perhaps organic milk. The next category is a small amount of whole grains with the exception of wheat, which is not a healthful food today. Most other foods are excluded for various reasons, especially sweets, all fruits, all raw salads, and all wheat products.
2. About three quarts or three liters daily of either distilled or spring water to drink. NOTE: Distilled water is recommended only for about three months. If continued longer, distilled water can remove vital minerals from the body.
Carbon-filtered tap water is next-best, but often contains many toxins today. Well water is very unreliable, but may be okay in some cases. Alkaline water is too yin, and often unsafe if made with a home machine. Reverse osmosis water should be avoided. In most cases, it does not hydrate the body well, and tends to demineralize the body because it lacks vital minerals. It also poisons one with plastic residue from the RO membrane far worse than drinking out of plastic containers from the grocery store. Avoid all reverse osmosis water. You cannot fix it by adding minerals to it, in our experience.
Adults need to drink about 3 quarts of healthful water per day, while children require less. Read Water For Drinking for more on this subject.
3. A healthful lifestyle. This includes plenty of rest and sleep, excellent eating habits, some gentle exercise but not vigorous exercise, and a few other simple healthful habits of living such as cleanliness and watching your thoughts and emotions.
4. An optional, but highly recommended detoxification protocol. This involves mainly two healing modalities for many reasons. These are near infrared sauna therapy and coffee enemas. Both may be done daily. They are not mandatory, but they work excellently. To read more, read Sauna Therapy and Coffee Enemas.
5. About eight nutritional supplements. We find that everyone needs nutritional supplements today to achieve optimum health. The food is too depleted, the digestive tract is often unable to absorb enough nutrients from the food, and stress increases the need for some nutrients drastically.

The specific supplements and dosages for you is a complex system designed by Dr. Paul Eck and improved since his death in 1996. We use your hair mineral test and by all the information you send us to make this determination. The supplements must balance the oxidation rate and the major mineral ratios. They must also integrate with the diet, the lifestyle, be non-toxic, essentially, and meet many other criteria.
We suggest you avoid most nutritional supplements, herbs, vitamins, homeopathics and others for many reasons. Most are too yin in Chinese medical terminology, some are toxic, and others will unbalance the body, even if they give symptomatic relief.
Supplements are to be taken preferably three times daily with meals, although twice daily will often work fairly well, but not quite as well. Babies and children are often recommended supplements only twice daily. The supplements cost about $140.00 per month for an adult if taken three times daily, and about $95.00 per month if taken twice daily. Programs for children are about half this amount or less. We recommend staying on a supplement program for at least a year or more, although many people feel much better much sooner.
6. Mental training and emotional control. For this, we recommend the Roy Masters meditation-observation exercise. It is a very safe, Judeo-Christian meditation, and superb for many reasons. Read Meditation For Healing for more on this subject.
7. Other. Foot reflexology is extremely compatible with a nutritional balancing program, unlike many other therapies. I recommend it daily. It is simple and can be done at home by yourself or a family member. Some professionals offer it as well. Read Reflexology for more on this subject.
Quality chiropractic and body work such as Rolfing or structural integration, and perhaps high-quality therapeutic massage may also be very helpful, at times.
Avoiding all toxic exposure is also important. Removing all silver-mercury dental amalgams is most helpful. Also, avoid all medical, over-the-counter, and recreational drugs as much as possible. If you must take a medical drug, get off it as soon as possible.
The more of this seven-point program you follow diligently, the faster your results will be.
Mental development. Nutritional balancing is more than a way to relieve symptoms, though it is excellent for this purpose. It is also a way to improve your school and work performance, increase your overall energy level, and much more. Subtle changes such as personality integration, improved memory and cognition, and others I call mental development. This is discussed in detail in numerous articles on this website.

Cumulative results. Many people decide to stay on a program for several years or more, as the benefits tend to be cumulative. That is, the longer you remain on the program the more benefits you will tend to see.
This is a fascinating experience that does not occur with drug medical care, or with most other holistic health care. It only happens when the body chemistry is finely balanced again and again using repeated hair tissue mineral tests in a particular way.
Only then, the body retraces most infections and traumas, and removes many layers of toxins and other imbalances that all impair one’s health and well-being. This deep healing or state of wellness is our hope and wish for you
