Psoriasis Diet – The Three-Day Apple Diet and the grape diet for eliminating toxins out of the body

Psoriasis Diet – The Three-Day Apple Diet and the grape diet for eliminating toxins out of the body

To ensure maximum cleansing of toxins from the system, the ThreeDay Apple Diet outlined below should be followed before having the colonic or the enema.
First thing in the morning: Drink a glass of warm water to which the juice of one fresh lemon has been added.

One hour later, begin the following: Throughout the day, drink plenty of water and eat as many Red or Golden Delicious apples as desired .. Most of my patients eat between six and eight apples on the first day of this diet.

Late in the afternoon or in the evening: A high colonic is recommended, if at all possible. If not, a thorough home enema is advised. The purpose of having an enema at this time is to clear out the toxins that have already begun to accumulate in the lower intestinal tract. In the evening, drink one tablespoon of pure olive oil (preferably organic), either plain or mixed into hot water or apple juice.

Note; If a full tablespoon of olive oil upsets the stomach, I recommend reducing the amount to one teaspoon. Even this amount may be intolerable if you suffer from either a gallbladder or a liver condition. (Omit the olive oil if adverse reactions occur.)

DAY TWO

Repeat all of the instructions given for day one, except that a home enema is recommended instead of a high colonic irrigation.

DAY THREE

Repeat all of the instructions given for day one. It is most important that a high colonic or enema be given at the end of day three.  At the completion of this three-day cycle, eat a pint of plain plain yogurt, which will help to replace the normal bacterial flora of the intestinal tract. An hour later, if hunger persists, begin to follow the dietary suggestions we have outlined which allow a greater variety of foods.

Apples Are Not for Everyone

Without question, some people cannot tolerate apples, raw or cooked, no matter how they are prepared. Apples can cause intestinal discomfort or even severe allergic reactions in some people. If this is the case, the Apple Diet should not even be attempted. There are those, however, who can tolerate apples to a certain degree, but not for three days. Under these circumstances, going on the diet for one full day instead of three days, and in the evening taking one tablespoon of olive oil is recommended. On the next day, either a home enema or a high colonic is recommended.

If, during this cleansing period, you experience weakness, dizziness, ot any other adverse reactions, stop the Apple Diet and replace it with the more liberal cleansing diet. Such weakness or dizziness may be the result of a drop in blood sugar. These reactions are often relieved immediately by drinking a glass of orange juice, taking a tablespoon of pure honey, or eating a pint of plain yogurt.

Alternatives to the Apple Diet

For those who know they cannot tolerate apples or are allergic to them, there are alternatives: the Grape Diet, the Citrus Diet, or the Fresh Fruit Diet.

THE GRAPE DIET

On this diet, eat as many grapes as desired for three days and drink at least six to eight glasses of pure water daily. Almost any type of grape may be eaten, but the seedless black Concord variety is recommended.

Later in the afternoon or evening on the first and second days of this diet, a thorough home enema is advised. In addition, each evening, one tablespoon of pure olive oil should be taken, either plain or mixed into hot water, grape juice, or any other fruit juice, On the third day, a high colonic should be professionally administered late in the afternoon or evening, if possible. Again, a thorough home enema may be substituted.

THE CITRUS DIET

The Citrus Diet consists primarily of tropical and subtropical fruits. The most common of these are oranges, grapefruit, lemons, limes, tangerines, kumquats, mandarins, tangelos, and pomelos. This diet should be followed for five days instead of three. You may eat an unlimited amount of these specific fruits in addition to drinking six to eight glasses of pure water daily.

The ideal procedure would be to have a high colonic administered late In the afternoon or evening of the first and fifth days, and on the third day, a home enema. If high colonies are not available, I suggest having home enemas on the first, third, and fifth days, Each evening, one tablespoon of pure olive oil should be taken, either plain, mixed with hot water, or mixed with any citrus fruit juice. At the end of the five-day cycle, a pint of plain yogurt should be consumed, and an hour after that, the patient should commence the dietary measures.

Note: As with apples, some people are hypersensitive to citrus.

If this is the case, avoid the Citrus Diet. All cases of eczema and psoriatic arthritis must avoid citrus fruits and citrus fruit juices.

THE FRESH FRUIT DIET

The Fresh Fruit Diet is exactly what the name implies. All fruits may be eaten in any quantity on a daily basis, in addition to all the pure water that you can drink. This diet is maintained for a period of either three or five days.

The advantage of choosing this diet over the others is that it is more filling and satisfying and offers greater variety, and the fresh fruits may be eaten raw or cooked. The only restriction as to the choice of fruits, according to the Cayce material, is that all varieties of melons, raw apples, and bananas must be eaten separately rather than mixed with other fruits. Strawberries should not be eaten if there is an underlying condition of arthritis or eczema.

If you choose the three-day Fresh Fruit Diet, a home enema should be applied late in the afternoon or in the evening of the first and second days, and a high colonic should be administered on the third day. If it is not possible to get a colonic, another home enema may be substituted.

If you follow the five-day diet, a high colonic or home enema should be administered on the first and fifth days. A pint of yogurt is to be consumed after the last colonic or enema. An hour later, you can begin a more varied and satisfying diet with the foods. During this three- or five-day period, a tablespoon of pure olive oil is taken each evening.

Not only do these diets rid the body of an enormous amount of toxins, but patients also experience a weight loss of five to six pounds or more.

Note: If either dizziness or weakness occurs during this cleansing period, or if a person continues to have hunger pangs, I advise adding either a large green leafy salad or a scoop of low-fat -cottage cheese or low-fat yogurt to the diet. These additional foods help to provide more bulk. If there is any question as to whether a person can follow any of these cleansing diets, you may consult with a medical doctor before commencing. Some may not be able to follow these diets safely if, in addition to psoriasis, they are diabetic, hypoglycemic, have candida, or have diverticulitis.
