If you are currently buying bottled water or using pH drops this machine will pay for itself in no time. Quality high pH water at a price you can live with. Keeping the body properly alkalized for optimum health is one of the hottest trends in alternative medicine today. The other trend is water. No other substance can have a bigger impact on your body's health than water. You would be shocked to discover that almost all of the bottled water on the market is extremely acidic, including most of the spring waters, reverse osmosis and distilled water. Many of them test between 4.0 and 5.5 pH.

Restructured ionized alkaline water is one of the most important elements you can put into your body on a regular basis to help hydrate, oxygenate, alkalize and cleanse your body. When your body is properly alkalized your health will take a quantum leap forward.

This amazing technology was first invented by the Russians and later brought to market by the Japanese. Drinking this water on a regular basis can help relieve the three most common causes of sickness, disease and pre-mature aging: Acidosis, Dehydration and Free Radical Damage.

What Is Restructured Ionized Alkaline Water?

Restructured ionized alkaline water is electron-rich. It is full of energy and is the smoothest tasting water in the world. The ionic separation membrane yields water with pH typically between 8.0 and 9.5 to help your digestive buffering system. The Japanese FDA (Health and Welfare Ministry) specifically states that this water is beneficial for indigestion and gastrointestinal problems. The marriage of small molecular water clusters, high negative ions and smoother high pH makes this water a unique and healthy alternative. This is water as nature intended it to be.

THE ANSWER IS ALKALINE ENERGY WATER!!!

Our water is wetter water...more absorbable, more permeable; it actually breaks the cellular barriers. Including brain cell barriers, it feeds the cells and cleanses the cells like no other water.

The Water Cure Recipe

Drink 1/2 your body weight in ounces of water daily. Example: 180 lb = 90 oz. of water daily. Divide that into 8 or 10 oz. glasses and that's how many glasses you will need to drink, daily. Use 1/4 tsp. of unprocessed crystal rock salt for every quart of water you drink. Use crystal rock salt liberally with food. As long as you drink the water, you can use the salt. Use only 50 to 80 mineral, no additive, unprocessed crystal rock salt—the book Water & Salt is our recommendation for better understanding about salt. Avoid refined table salt. It only has three minerals in it. Avoid caffeinated or alcoholic drinks. These are diuretics and will dehydrate you. Every 6 oz. of caffeine or alcohol requires an additional 10 to 12 oz. of water to re-hydrate you.

Monitor your pH checking both urine and saliva with test strips—the Home Test pH Kit is our recommendation. The best pH range for urine and saliva is 6.8 to 7.2. The lower the reading, the more acid your body is and the more difficult it is for it to repair itself because it is then in a degenerative state. You will find that in most cases, the people with cancer and other terrible health problems are very acid. Water & sea salt are the best for neutralizing acid, but there are whole green foods you also need to select for proper pH. Exercise must also be done regularly as nothing works without proper exercise. Walking is best.

What would our home look like after years of never clearing out garbage. After a while you couldn't walk through a room. All the garbage would soon make it impossible to live there anymore. Not to mention the odor and disease potential. Our internal home is no different. If we are not diligent with the removal of waste and toxins, soon it would become impossible to comfortably live in our body as well. I always like to take my lead from nature. Every spring and fall nature cleans house. We should do the same so that both the summer and winter of our lives is a beautiful experience.

Since we are all biochemically unique results may vary. As always, check with you doctor before use. There is much controversy surrounding the theory of mucus and waste build-up in the lining of the human intestinal tract and organs. Most trained in western medicine techniques feel colon and organ cleansing is a hoax, while those in the natural community feel all disease begins in the gut with toxic build-up and that a cleanse is imperative for good health and the prevention of disease. As with most cleanses you may feel worse before you feel better. The toxins leaving your body may increase symptoms until they are removed. Always use common sense. The final decision to do, or not to do a Colon Cleanse and or an Internal cleanse is your decision and your responsibility alone.

Specifically the Internal Cleansing Kit™ is designed to:

1. Detoxify and Rejuvenate All of Your Body's Organs of Cleansing
   Over ninety different herbs in thirteen special formulas support the small and large intestines (colon), liver & gallbladder, kidneys & bladder, lungs, lymph, blood, and skin.*
2. Reduce Unwanted Para-Organisms in the Digestive Tract
   Three powerful herbal formulas are used to rebalance unwanted para-organism populations.*
3. Provide Probiotics
   Introduces 3 billion live strains of friendly bacteria per capsule to maintain a high level of good bacteria in our intestines.
4. Provide Support While Cleansing
   Soothing teas and a special antioxidant formula provide comfort and support as your body detoxifies.
5. Release the Body's Wisdom for Greater Health

Your body has eleven major systems (circulatory, digestive, nervous, etc.) and five are needed for continuous self-cleansing and elimination. You're designed this way because your body continually generates large quantities of endo-toxins - the natural by-products of metabolism. In fact, scientists estimate that in the time it would take you to read this section, your body's natural metabolism will have produced enough "endo-toxins" to kill a small animal.

Add to that the modern burdens of exo-toxins - environmental pollutants, food additives and other stress factors - and it's clear that if your elimination system is over-burdened or weak, your health and vitality can suffer. The Center for Disease Control has done large-scale studies and found measurable amounts of more than 100 toxic chemicals in blood and urine of the general public.

The Internal Cleansing Kit™: Step-by-Step Pre-Cleanse

Sequential Cleansing for Optimum Results

The Internal Cleansing Kit™ starts with a three-day pre-cleanse. During this time you will discover how many Digestive Stimulator™ capsules you need to take before bed to assure three daily bowel movements the following day. This number will vary depending on your current regularity. You will continue to take this number of Digestive Stimulator™ caps each day of your cleanse. In addition you will begin taking Toxin Absorber™ once per day. This bulk fiber will assist your body in removing toxins throughout your cleanse.

Week One

The Internal Cleansing Kit™ begins with support and cleansing of your liver & gallbladder. The liver is your body's primary organ of self-detoxification and plays a crucial role in a successful cleanse. You will continue supporting and cleansing your liver for the entire cleanse by taking Liver & Gallbladder Rejuvenator™. As with most of the formulas in the Internal Cleansing Kit™ you will be taking it three times per day: before breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Also in week one, you will take four formulas to rebalance populations of intestinal organisms. Three of these formulas, Large Para Cleanser 1 & 2™ and Small Para Cleanser™, will work to eliminate unwanted para-organisms and the fourth, Friendly Bacteria Replenisher™, will recolonize your intestinal tract with probiotics, the good bacteria that maintain your life.*

During week one, you will also begin taking Toxin Neutralizer™ once per day to protect your cells during cleansing and to reduce damage from free radicals.* This will be continued throughout the entire cleanse.

In addition, at any point during your cleanse you may have a cup of Refreshing Green Tea Blend™ to help you through any difficult spots that may arise.

Week Two

During the second week, you will focus on your Kidneys and Lungs. During this week you will be adding Kidney & Bladder Rejuvenator™ and Lung Rejuvenator™ to the other formulas you are continuing from previous steps. These two formulas will only be taken during week two and will be taken three times per day.

Week Three

During the third week, you will concentrate on your Blood, Skin, and Lymph systems. You will be taking two formulas, Blood & Skin Rejuvenator™ and Lymph Rejuvenator™, three times per day during week three.

Beyond Week Three

You should continue taking any remaining Digestive Stimulator™ until you have completely used up your bottle (if you want, you may order more and continue for as long as you like).

Complete instructions are provided within the Users Guide and Dosage Calendar. Printed versions of both are included in each Internal Cleansing Kit™.

Dietary considerations during the Internal Cleansing Kit™ can increase the strength of your cleanse.

Note: Raw and organic juices are the best because they are packed with readily available nutrition which requires less energy for your body to digest. No pesticide residues means less toxic exposure for your body cells and less energy expenditure to process toxins.

As with the Colon Cleansing Kit™ you can control the strength of your cleanse by varying what and how much you eat. By eating less and/or easier to digest foods you will have a deeper cleanse. However, unlike the Colon Cleansing Kit™, there is no need to fast while doing the Internal Cleansing Kit™. That said, eating more raw foods and fresh fruits and vegetables will aid the cleansing process.

Listed below specific foods that are particularly difficult for the body to digest or process. You will get a more satisfying cleanse if you eliminate them from your diet.

Foods to Eliminate While Cleansing:

• Dairy products including cheese, ice cream, milk, and yogurt because they clog and congest, thus slowing down the elimination of toxins and old intestinal waste
• Fried foods, especially pan-fried with oil or deep-fried because they also clog and congest
• Processed sugar (white sugar, artificial sweeteners, corn syrup, etc.) in candy, soft drinks, or added to food, because they depress the immune system
• Common Iodized Table Salt because it constricts and holds in toxins (you can use unrefined, unheated earth or sea salt lightly)
• Meat because it takes the most energy to digest and slows cleansing

Specifically the Colon Cleansing Kit™ is designed to:

1. Assures Regular & Comfortable Bowel Movements
2. Removes Old, Accumulated Waste from Your Small & Large (Colon) Intestines
3. Rejuvenates the Digestive System
4. Prepares You for the Internal Cleansing Kit™

Contents of the Colon Cleansing Kit™ (Ginger or Peppermint)

• Toxin Absorber™ (Ginger or Peppermint) - 30 Packets
• Digestive Stimulator™ - 90 Vegetarian Capsules
• Glass Shaker Jar - 1 Glass Jar with Lid (to mix Toxin Absorber™)
• Dosage Calendar - 1 Printed Booklet
• Users Guide - 1 Printed Booklet

What the Colon Cleansing Kit™ Does:

1. Assures Regular & Comfortable Bowel Movements
   The herbal stimulant formula not only helps the bowels move regularly (2-3 times/day), but also includes carminative herbs that reduce or eliminate cramps, gas and griping that could be caused if stimulating herbs are taken by themselves.
2. Removes Old, Accumulated Waste from Your Small & Large (Colon) Intestines
   Cleansing combined with a liquids-only fast enables our herbal blend to literally bind to and pull out old waste that is stuck to your intestinal walls. The Colon Cleansing Kit™ may alternatively be done without fasting, providing a milder cleanse for increased regularity and gentler cleansing.
3. Rejuvenates the Digestive System The herbal formulas of the Colon Cleansing Kit™ are designed to restore and encourage the natural functions of your entire digestive system, including the stomach, both the small and large (colon) intestines, liver, gallbladder and pancreas.
   • Stimulates digestive secretions
   • Provides tonic support for digestive organs and mucus membranes
   • Decongests the liver and stimulates bile flow
4. Prepares You for the Internal Cleansing Kit™
   The Colon Cleansing Kit™ can be used (2-4 times/year) as a stand-alone cleansing therapy - or as the first step of our Complete Cleansing Program™. It is highly recommended to fully cleanse the colon prior to beginning the Internal Cleansing Kit™. A well-functioning colon enables the herbal formulas to work directly with the other five pathways of cleansing (liver, lungs, kidneys, skin and lymph), without having to deal with a "backed-up" body sewer (colon) - the 6th pathway. And by removing old, accumulated wastes from the intestines, this allows the Para-Cleansing formulas of the Internal Cleansing Kit™ to rebalance the unwanted para-organisms population more easily and more completely.

Leading out of your stomach is a long tube that ends at your anus. This twenty feet or so, is called the small intestine and the final five feet is called the large intestine (colon). Unlike the colon, the small intestine has many small finger-like projections (villi) from its inner lining that present a surface area the size of a tennis court. It is within the folds of both intestines that waste and toxins may accumulate.

The food you eat is broken down during the process of digestion so it can be absorbed through the intestinal wall. What is not digested or absorbed is eventually eliminated as waste. Over time old waste and toxins may build up within the folds of your intestinal wall. Observational evidence suggests this is the result of excessive mucus secretions, stuck food particles, environmental toxins, constipation, etc.

By giving your body a break from solid food the main formula in the Colon Cleansing Kit™, Toxin Absorber™, an organic Psyllium based drink, is able to bind to old waste and toxins and begin pulling it out of your digestive tract. Throughout the course of your five day liquids-only fast, old accumulated waste and toxins will be drawn out of your intestinal system by Toxin Absorber™.

After completing the Colon Cleansing Kit™ your intestinal lining is left cleansed and rejuvenated. Throughout your five day liquids-only fast, Toxin Absorber™ continues to pull old, accumulated waste and toxins out of your intestines. As old, accumulated waste and toxins are eliminated you begin to feel thinner, more energetic, and full of energy. You won't know how good you can feel until it's gone.

Toxin Absorber™: Choose Ginger or Peppermint

During this program you will take Toxin Absorber with apple juice and water, five times a day, to draw the build-up off the intestinal walls. It is an herbal supplement of Psyllium seed husks, Apple pectin, Ginger root OR Peppermint leaf, and Bentonite clay.

Though Ginger root has a hot, spicy taste and Peppermint leaf a cool minty taste, they are not added to the Toxin Absorber formula in our Colon Cleansing Kit™ for their flavoring, but rather for their different effects on the body. Either one will relieve digestive upsets and harmonize the formula, but Ginger supports more parts of the body than Peppermint does. Ginger not only supports digestion, but also the cardiovascular and immune systems. Ginger also encourages the growth of friendly bacteria in the gut, dispels unwanted para-organisms, helps make the other herbs in the formula more bioavailable to the body, and helps expel toxins.

Although we recommend Ginger because of these additional benefits, that does not mean it is appropriate for all people to take. We have found that nearly 70% of our customers choose Ginger and 30% choose Peppermint. Please read the following information carefully to help you in making your decision. Don't make a choice based on taste alone, unless none of the conditions listed below apply to you.

Ginger

Choose Ginger^† if any if the following applies to you:

• if you have a feeling of cold most of the time or have a feeling of heat, but only in the afternoon or evening, often with night sweats
• if you usually like heat and dislike cold, except while experiencing a hot spell
• if you have cold extremities
• CAUTION: if you have hiatal hernia choose Ginger because Peppermint may cause more acid refluxing due to a relaxing effect on the lower esophageal sphincter.

Peppermint

Choose Peppermint^† if any if the following applies to you:

• if you have a feeling of heat most of the time
• if you usually like cold and dislike heat
• if you have a burning sensation in your stomach sometimes
• CAUTION: if you are taking anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs or aspirin choose Peppermint, because Ginger at high doses may increase the blood-thinning effect of these drugs but Peppermint does not.

^†Certified Organically Grown, all others Wild Harvested with care or High Quality herbs

Digestive Stimulator™: Comfortable Regularity

Digestive Stimulator™ is a natural herbal supplement that tones, cleanses, and purifies the entire digestive system*. The dosages will vary for each person to assure that one's bowels are moving at least three times a day. During this program it is vitally important that one has regular bowel movements to keep the Toxin Absorber™ moving through the intestinal system.

An herbal dietary supplement of Cape Aloe leaf, Aloe Vera leaf, Cascara Sagrada bark, Chinese Rhubarb root^†, Triphala^† (Amla fruit, Chebulic Myrobalan fruit, Belleric Myrobalan fruit), Barberry root, Dandelion root^†, Fringe Tree root bark, Meadowsweet aerial parts, Plantain aerial parts^†, Ginger root^†, Fennel seed^†, Peppermint leaf^†, Fenugreek seed^†, and Licorice root^†.

^†Certified Organically Grown, all others Wild Harvested with care or High Quality herbs

Shaker Jar for Mixing Toxin Absorber™

Shaker Jar to mix Toxin Absorber™ with juice. We recommend organic apple juice. Apple juice makes the main formula of this cleanse, Toxin Absorber™, much easier to drink. You can try to take it with water, but we have found it tastes much better and goes down smoother with apple juice. Apple juice also has its own cleansing powers and helps with the rejuvenation process.* You can also drink apple juice at any time during this cleanse if you feel you need a little more energy or a change from just water.

It will take a total of 8 quarts (2 gallons) of apple juice to take all of your packets of Toxin Absorber™. If you wish to drink apple juice between times of taking Toxin Absorber™, you will want to have more quarts on hand. When you buy your juice, be sure it is from organically grown apples so as to not introduce new toxins while cleansing. You should be able to get your juice at the local health food store or supermarket. Best of all, make your own fresh juice using four organically grown apples each time you take a packet of Toxin Absorber™.

Q: Who Is A Candidate For Temple Cleanse?

Anyone who suffers from constipation, irregular bowel movements, bloating, gas, or other intestinal related health problems may benefit from the use of Temple Cleanse. People who wish to do periodic intestinal cleanses also may benefit from the use of Temple Cleanse because it’s a product like no other, in that it oxygenates the entire intestinal system. If you’ve been diagnosed by a physician with a gastrointestinal related disorder, it is strongly recommended that you first seek the advice of your doctor before using this product to determine suitability.

Q: How does Temple Cleanse work?

Once Temple Cleanse comes in contact with the body’s natural stomach acids, it creates a reaction process that slowly separates the oxygen away from the magnesium compounds it is bonded to and releases nascent or mono-atomic oxygen throughout the entire digestive system for up to 12 hours or more. The magnesium compounds in Temple Cleanse are not recognized by the body as an absorbable form of magnesium. We specifically use inorganic magnesium compounds in order to force the body to flush the magnesium out through the intestinal system. This is how it delivers the oxygen. As the magnesium slowly passes through the intestinal system, it delivers oxygen along the way. This has a two-fold effect. The oxygen helps to clean the colon and restore health, while the magnesium compounds aid in removing unwanted fecal debris.

For more information, read Temple Cleanse (Oxygen Colon Cleanser) in our Resources Section.

Since the beginning of time sages and physicians have known of the miraculous healing properties found in certain cereal grasses and grains. They had an intrinsic wisdom about their ability to nourish the body due to the fact that they contain almost every vitamin, mineral, enzyme and phytonutrient required for sustaining life. The two most legendary grains with tremendous biblical support to back up their healing ability are wheat and barley. Millions of people throughout history have experienced the blessings of great health by consuming these grains on a regular basis.

Today, more and more people realize that they must do something to either maintain good health or restore lost health. Many of the latest health reports say that we must eat more fruits, vegetables, nuts, whole grains, and good fats. However, our lifestyles have become so hectic that it's very difficult to take the time out of our schedules to eat right. We're all on the run with our daily routine with little to no time left over to prepare good meals. Many live away from big cities where it's not convenient to eat at good restaurants or get to a health food store and buy organic products. In light of this, we resort to eating foods that we know we shouldn't and our bodies are literally starving for better nutrition.

If you're looking to change the nutritional deficiencies you're suffering from, perhaps it's time you considered adding wheat grass and barley grass to your daily diet, as well as more whole grain wheat and barley products. The ancients knew that every aspect of these two grains offer tremendous health benefits. Some of the most powerful, however, come in their early stage of growth where they are in the form of blades of grass. Wheat grass and barley grass can fuel the body with the some of the highest amounts of chlorophyll found anywhere in nature. The beauty about wheat grass and barley grass is that it takes very little time out of your day to incorporate them into your diet. All you need to do is mix a few teaspoons into a drink and you'll provide your body with tremendous nutrition. The truth is these two grasses alone could serve as our sole nutritional support from birth to death if that were all we had to live on. Let's take a closer look at these two important grains and their importance in maintaining optimum health.

Kamut

Kamut is a nutritional grain that has more protein and minerals than common wheat or other cereal grass. Green Kamut is an Organic Food. It is a vital source of Phytochemical Elements. It is Designed by Nature as a Catalyst to Balance the Human Body.

• It assists the body's essential life - regulating pH balance.
• It stimulates the body's natural cleansing and detoxifying.
• It contributes to cell and tissue growth.

Kamut is generally regarded as a grain that is the purest, and therefore, least allergy-inducing wheat on the market. Kamut is a strain of wheat that was brought to the United States as a non-hybrid seed. It has remained non-hybrid, which is the reason for its exceptionally high nutritional value.

Wheat

Of all the foods mentioned in the Bible, assuredly none holds a higher position of importance than wheat. Both the Bible and archaeology show that wheat was one of the main staple foods of ancient times and some form of it was probably eaten at every meal. In fact, historians claim that wheat was the earliest crop ever harvested by the human race with evidence of wheat farming along the Nile River dating back as far as 4,000 B.C. The biblical feast day of Pentecost, also known as the Festival of Weeks, or Shavuot, was held in celebration of the spring wheat harvest.

Nutritionally, wheat does seem to contain it all. It is an excellent source of protein, fat, and carbohydrates as well as vitamins, minerals and enzymes. Wheat truly is a special gift and should be considered for good health.

"15 LBS. of wheat grass is equal in overall nutritional value to 350 LBS. of ordinary vegetables. We have not even scratched the surface of what grass can mean to man in the future." (1)
- Charles F. Schnabel

"The grain of grass contains all the elements of which the body is composed including revitalizing and rebuilding materials, force producers for energy and also the eliminators of waste acids. Grass and sprouts are perfect foods." (1)
- Dr. Ann Wigmore

Barley

Barley, like wheat, is a highly nutritious grain and is mentioned close to 40 times in the Bible. In ancient Israel, its growing season and harvest actually came before wheat and it was the first crop of the year.

Like wheat, barley is also an excellent source of protein, fat, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals. According to ancient Oriental wisdom, barley is good for the spleen and stomach, helps promote normal urinary flow, and like wheat, helps in the cooling process of the body.

Human Blood And Chlorophyll Are Almost Identical structurally. The reason why chlorophyll is so beneficial to our health is due to the fact that it is almost identical to human blood. There is only one difference between hemoglobin and chlorophyll. Hemoglobin is built around iron, and chlorophyll is built around magnesium. It's my belief that our blood and the blood of plants (chlorophyll) would be identical. It's the perfect symbiotic relationship between man and the plants. All life is dependent upon each other. Plants give us oxygen, we give them carbon dioxide and our sole source of nutrition comes from the chlorophyll found in all plant life.

"Chlorophyll, which is the green pigment found in the plant cells, is essential to the process of photosynthesis. Simply put, chlorophyll is the substance that fuels life on earth; without it, there would be no plants and thus, no oxygen. Chlorophyll's structure has been found to be almost identical to the structure of hemoglobin, a vital component within human blood. The most obvious difference between the two is that the structure of chlorophyll is based around magnesium, while hemoglobin is arranged around iron. Some scientists have hypothesized that the blood in animals is made in almost the same way as chlorophyll is made in plants. This could mean that when chlorophyll is introduced into the system, it could allow the blood to, among many other things, deliver more oxygen to the body and 'build' blood in those systems that are weakened by disease and toxins."(2)

Wheat, Barley, and Kamut Grasses- This is food for the brain. These are the Vitamin/Mineral herbs. They are mildly cleansing and the greatest sources of nutrition of any grasses. Grain grasses are more potent than the grains themselves, offering us a rich array of vitamins, minerals, and chlorophyll. Alfalfa is one of the most mineral-rich foods known. Alfalfa has roots that grow as much as 130 feet into the earth. It contains calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, plus ALL known vitamins. The minerals are in a balanced form which promotes absorption. These minerals are all ALKALINE, but have a neutralizing effect on the intestinal tract. Barley is high in calcium, iron, all the essential amino acids, chlorophyll, flavanoids, vitamin B-12, Vitamin C, and many minerals, plus enzymes. Kamut wheatgrass contains a variety of vitamins, minerals, and trace elements. According to Dr. Ann Wigmore, an educator and founder of the Hippocrates Health Institute in Boston, 1 pound of fresh wheat grass is equal in nutritional value to nearly 25 pounds of the choicest vegetables.
