The Edgar Cayce Diet-a guide to natural health

The Edgar Cayce Diet-a guide to natural health

The sleeping prophet gave unique guidelines for a healthy diet, and the Cayce diet is easy to use-good advice for almost everyone. In the western world, Essen is traditionally treated as a simple matter to maintain energy and gain pleasure. But as in the Chinese and Indian traditions of "functional nutrition", Edgar Cayce considered food as medicine, both to heal and prevent diseases, and he attached great importance to it.

It would be great if we could just ask Cayce for advice on a personal, healthy diet. But since we do not have the master himself here, it makes sense to learn the basic "street rules" that he left us.

Here are some Cayce dietary dos and don’s. But remember that we are more than just physical beings-we are a body-spirit-soul mixture. Even the sleeping Cayce pointed out the psychological advantage of violating the meal rules every now and then. In other words, the occasional food of these fries fries that you really enjoy can actually use the body when it calms the mind and emotions!

things you should do

Eat fish, poultry and lamb. Cayce recommended this as much better than large amounts of beef or pork.

Eat citrus fruits to alkalize and prevent colds.

whole grain products eat

Eat local food. A cayce rule for healthy eating recommends that people should consume as much locally grown foods as possible. It is fascinating to remember that this principle was laid down 5,000 years ago in the old Sanskrit vedes of India, the origin of Ayurveda.

cayce added that the food for allergies was not not The food of local food was the main cause! When I heard this for the first time, it made absolutely sense - how could you better deal with environmental factors than to eat the food grown in this area?

At the time of Cayce, most people ate mainly local dishes, even people who lived in cities. Small farmers and gardeners brought their products and meat to the cities every morning. Unfortunately, for many today, at least in the United States, most of our food is grown in just a few states. It can be almost impossible to get local food unless we build the food ourselves.

ensure the right acid-base balance in the body. This was one of the universal rules - and he continued that it could completely prevent the cold! He described the way foods react in the body than their intrinsic properties. For example, an orange acid can test with lacquer muscle paper, but in the body your reaction is alkaline.

What is the right acid-base balance for you? With the Cayce diet, a seated person (little movement) should only consume 20 percent acid-producing and 80 percent-based foods. But then he indicated the opposite for a physically active person - 80 % acid,
and 20 % basic.

iss 3 above ground grown vegetables to a grown below. (He except at least one diabetics who was said should reverse the rule to restore the correct balance.)

vegetables in your own juice as gently as possible. He recommended Patafar paper that we did not always find practical. But use at least as little water as possible, in a saucepan with a solid lid, and always eat all of the water that contains most nutrients.

Many people use a steam cooker, but we have found that this leads to an inadequate cooking of vegetables and a waste of nutrients in the water. In particular, legumes (peas and beans) cannot be digested properly if they are not thoroughly cooked (or sprouted), and people almost never use water from the dampening.

Eat yogurt, which he called Bulgarian buttermilk, for intestinal health.

Eat two almonds every day to prevent cancer.

Eat olive oil, for the health of the heart and colon. He said it would be better to take a tablespoon of olive oil every evening to support the excretions.

Eat gelatin on vegetables and vegetables to improve coordination. We often just sprinkle it and stir it.

eat food slowly.

eat in a quiet environment.

Cayce diet things that can be avoided

All fried foods (high heat destroys most food value.) Most meals go in one fell swoop - Kentucky Fried Chicken, lots of Chinese food, Long John Silver’s, most of the Hamburg bars, etc.

white flour in its many forms.

eat a lot of pork, especially if you have arthritis! He recommended extremely crispy bacon and offal. (These are what most of us consider as the unsavory parts - organs and intestinal products that have traditionally been used in Bologna, sausages, hot dogs and some types of meatballs. Unfortunately, these foods now often contain too much salt and harmful preservatives.)

eat a lot of beef, except for its specially prepared beef juice.

carbonated water. He called Pop "Slop", with the exception of some fewer people.

alcohol, except red wine.

food in the event of stress, overexcitation, emotional excitement or fatigue.

Certain combinations of food such as milk and citrus fruits (he added tomatoes as citrus fruits); Whole grain and citrus fruits; Meat or cheese with starch; and milk or cream in coffee.

food that does not tolerate the body, even if you like it, or even if you like it should be healthy for you.

How can the Edgar Cayce diet work for you?

Can you actually eat and enjoy it? The fact that Viking (and health nuts) could mix everything together and not noticed it does not really help. Cayce himself warned against outrage her taste. But cooking was invented for that!

This is the main thing - you have to think about was you eat, and where you get it, and as Shopping can take longer at first, and real cooking takes time, although you can save a lot of time with good planning. But get closer to him and you will be successful.

What we have discussed are the general principles of the Cayce diet. But there is much more. If you have a specific question, you can usually find what you are looking for in the ERE Edgar Cayce database. The knowledge you win is particularly effective if you can you will find a Cayce-sympathische doctor to help you. The legacy of the Cayce diet could make a big difference in her life- Why not make the best of it?
