Supplements from Dr Clement



Dr. Brian Clement's talk in Sarasota

Well, this is what gets me excited and encouraged to keep on my healthy pass. Invigorated again by another talk in town I've learned some interesting facts that are actually eye opening! Dr. Brian Clement, director of the Hippocrates Institute, talked about food supplements and their nutritional reality.

Some facts:
  • A vitamin term was discovered only in 1912! In 1906, English biochemist Sir Frederick Gowland Hopkins also discovered that certain food factors were important to health. In 1912, Polish scientist Cashmir Funk named the special nutritional parts of food as a "vitamine" after "vita" meaning life and "amine" from compounds found in the thiamine he isolated from rice husks. Vitamine was later shortened to vitamin. Together, Hopkins and Funk formulated the vitamin hypothesis of deficiency disease - that a lack of vitamins could make you sick.
  • Vitamin C was the first vitamin to be artificially synthesized in 1935 by a Swiss Technocal Insitute and quickly put to market. It was much much much much cheaper to create it than the vitamin C from the natural souse. From then on, all the vitamins started to be synthesized one by one and by the 50s, there was a boost of supplement marketing compains in the U.S.. This was the time when multivitamins supplements were intriduced to the market. Nowadays, it's hard to meet a family who doesn't take any supplements with their diet. Dr. Clement suggest to watch what you put in your body, better yet switch from supplements to vegan diet instead, he believes our biological structure strives only if no animal products/proccesed products are used. Our bodies were designed to get nutrition from real food not synthetic processed 'food'.
  • Health Food Stores came to market in the 40s - 50s and to this day at least 80% of them contain synthetic vitamins. Dr. Clement insists such vitamins are not nutritional.
A few more random facts I have learned from the lecture:
  • 92% of American soil doesn't have any nutrients 
  • a farm's soil have to be at least 10 % organic to qualify for "organic" 
  • chemical supplements light up in your body thru microscope 
  • synthetic nutrients don't absorb 
  • don't get a B12 shot from your local alternative doctor. It doesn't give you any good supplement as it's synthetic but big amount of it can create an addiction 
  • 93% of people treated from cancer will die from cancer proving that chemo and radiation are not affective and kills the human body 
You can learn more from Dr. Clement and his wonderful Hippocrates institute here: http://www.hippocratesinst.org The program lasts for 1 to 3 weeks and it's expensive, but anyone who went there highly recommends it. There are even many cases of cancer patients that were healed after 3 weeks by applying customized natural nutritions and having a strict raw/vegan diet. Dr.Clement's wife is a co-owner of the institute and she takes the blood test and other tests and prescribes the course for you..

To Your Health!

Alkalyze your Body through Remineralization
http://www.naturalinteractive.com/morelessPHhealthprotocol_v2.0.pdf



General Principles
The elements of this protocol can be used to dramatically improve any health situation. Before you
begin it is helpful to keep some things in mind.

Be Patient
Your current health situation more than likely took years to develop. It is unreasonable to think that
you can correct it overnight. More than likely a lack of patience has made your health problem worse
causing you to bounce from things that promised a “quick fix” to your problem but in the end only
made things worse.

Exercise Moderation
Imagine your body as a house and if you are sick, it is more than likely that your house needs
cleaning. In the process of cleaning your house, you have the option to go fast and kick up a lot of
dust or be more methodical and to kick up less dust. The faster you go the more discomfort you are
likely to experience. The worst case scenario is the discomfort becomes so great that you have
abandon the approach all together and go grasping at something that may not be good for you to
alleviate the discomfort. It makes much more sense to take things slowly and do things more
consistently over time.

Clean up Your Digestive Tract
First things first, is to give yourself an enema or to go and see a professional colon hydrotherapist.
This is to help clean out your digestive system. If you are not healthy more than likely your digestive
system is not functioning properly. If your digestive system is not working, then it is very difficult for
your body to extract nutrients from the food that you eat. Skipping this first step can minimize the
impact of positive change in your diet.

Rebuild the Positive Bacteria in your Digestive Tract
Purchase a Probiotic supplement (one with a high billion count 8+ and with both Bifidus Bacterium
and Acidophilus) from your local Organic Food Market (Mother’s, Whole Foods). First thing in the
morning, drink a glass of water to water down your stomach acids. Then take the probiotics along
with a glass of skim milk.

Drink Enough Purified Water (Chlorine and Chemical free)
When you are thirsty, you should drink water rather than coffee, soda, or even juice. You can tell if
you are drinking enough clean water if the color of your urine is a very pale. If your urine is dark
then you should increase the amount of water that you are drinking. When you drink water it is best
to sip smaller amounts throughout the day rather than gulping large amounts at once.

Avoid the Bad Stuff Acid Forming Foods and Activities
• Avoid refined sugars (white sugar, high fructose corn syrup etc.)
• Avoid refined starches (white bread, pasta, white rice etc.)
• Avoid chemicals such as preservatives, artificial sweeteners (Splenda or sucralose, Equal or
apartame, etc.)
• Avoid eating fruit and dairy or fruit and meat at the same time (make sure to wait 1 hour
after consuming fruit before eating meat or dairy and 3 hours after consuming meat or dairy
before eating fruit)
• Avoid consuming homogenized milk or products made from homogenized milk (skim milk
products are ok)
• Avoid eating protein or grains 4-6 hours before you go to sleep

Eat Nutrient Rich Whole Foods
80% of your diet should be fresh, locally grown, organic fruits and vegetables with an emphasis on
leafy green vegetables (broccolli, kale, cabbage,romaine, green leaf, or red leaf lettuce etc.)
20% of your diet can be whole grains, nuts, and high quality sources of animal protein
(unhomogenized or skim milk, free-range, grass-fed meats, eggs, wild caught cold water fish such as
Alaskan salmon or sardines)
