Fast & Grow Young!: Herbert Shelton's Hygienic System Vol. III

Publisher Marketing: Originally published as Hygienic System Vol III by Herbert Shelton, this reissue known as Fast & Grow Young features over 467 pages of insight, research, case histories, and anecdotes of about the remarkable effects fasting has on the human body. Nature's FIRST Cure! Much of what you'll discover in Fast & Grow Young will appear counter-intuitive. We've been led to believe that constant eating is the basis of strength, vitality and energy renewal when, in fact when it comes to healing, just the opposite is true. Fasting is nature's first cure. Sick animals will refuse food-even water-until well. Our own lack of appetite when ill is our instinctive programming to do the same. Our bodies are coded to restore and repair if we simply allow it to divert the energy it uses for digestion to accomplish healing instead. True cure of illness exists without the unnatural, side-effects of drug-based methods of so-called healing. In Fast & Grow Young, you'll discover that nature has had her original cure waiting for you. All you need is the courage and discipline to take advantage of it. Discover how the physiological "rest" of fasting helps the body engage in the pre-coded process of - losing weight - dissolving tumors - eliminating cancer - treating addiction - curing diabetes - mitigating mental illness - fighting epilepsy - curing syphilis - reducing fibroids, and much more! But that's just half the story! Fasting for an extended period leads to something even more remarkable: reversal and rejuvenation. Many people never get to experience the cleansing of blood, disappearance of wrinkles, end to chronic conditions, and the improvement of eyesight, hearing and sense of smell that comes with an extended fast! Your body actually gets younger! Fast & Grow Young also includes: case studies from the author's practice overseeing thousands of fasts; answers to questions about fasting and children, pregnancy, the elderly; plus what to expect during the stages of fasting and more! Fast & Grow Young will dispel the myths and misconceptions about fasting, take you on an amazing journey of real health and rejuvenation and show you how to do it right! Nature is foolproof. The body is coded to heal. Activate your natural, dormant code! Fast and grow young! NOTE TO READERS: As insightful and accurate as his insights are, Shelton, like many authors, was limited in certain ways by the worldview of his culture and times. Consequently, certain content in Fast & Grow Young may not pass today's standards of political correctness. However, do not let this deter you from full appreciation of Shelton's work. The reader who can make allowances for and dig beyond the biases of Shelton's time will uncover a premise that is, at its core, unassailable: that in his quest for health and youthful vitality, man is best served by looking to nature for guidance and to experience the restorative and rejuvenative and seemingly miraculous effects that fasting produces, and returning to the coded condition of perfect health, long life and the fountain of youth
