Right Living Through Detoxification

Of all the giants of natural healing, Dr. Bernard Jensen stands head and shoulders with the greatest of them all.
As a young man, Jensen was sickly and weak. He came very close to death several times in his life from his many debilitating ailments. Discouraged by allopathic medicine's failure to help him regain his health, he began to investigate the principles of natural healing and applied them to his own life.
When he discovered fasting, Jensen began to regain his vigor and soon found himself well and whole. This dramatic cure, convinced Jensen that the secret to wellness and good health was detoxification. As a result, Jensen devoted his life to helping patients who were declared "incorrigible, terminal and chronic" to achieve radiant health through fasting and detoxification of the bowel.
He obtained his D.C. from the West Coast Chiropractic College in 1929 and enjoyed a career spanning many decades, well into the 90s. He studied with pioneers of naturopathy like Dr. John Harvey Kellogg, yes, that Kellogg, and Dr. Bernard Lust, M.D. whose sanitarium in Butler, N.J. was world famous for natural cures.
In those years of intensive practice and study, Jensen mastered the art of iridology, using the iris of the eye to discern and diagnose illness. Before he graduated from the American School of Naturopathy, he drew 500 eyes in color, showing the many forms of anomalies detected through the use of iridology. He became a master of the art and lectured worldwide on the use of iridology in natural healing. He taught iridology at colleges in both New Jersey and New York.
Jensen's philosophy of healing was a simple one: "Right living, good food, and an elimination and detoxification program." He almost always started with detoxification, since he believed that the body needed to be free of poisons and waste before true healing could take place.
He used elimination diets, the reversal process and the healing crisis to cure his patients and reverse many diseases, including tuberculosis and diabetes. The terrible skin nemesis, psoriasis, disappeared time after time under his care.
His Hidden Valley Clinic in California treated thousands of sufferers with tremendous success, using only natural means. Many patients of mine have rallied after a course of his "vital broth," a brew so potent it restores in a matter of days.
Jensen was a dire foe of constipation and worked tirelessly to teach people how to keep the colon and ailimentary tract functioning properly and smoothly. He believed death began in the colon, reasoning that when one is constipated, toxins are circulating throughout the body, wreaking havoc on health and well being. Anyone who is chronically constipated knows this is true. Jensen was a gentle and kindly man, who treated many cases without charge. He remained vigorous into his eighties and wrote many wonderful books on healing naturally. They are easy to read and full of wonderful information on getting well and staying well. I highly recommend them to anyone interested in maintaining a healthy lifestyle, naturally.
