6. The 2 Basic Principles
in Natural Health
2. Cleansing and removing toxins
from the body
1. Feeding and nourishing the body
systems

7. pH Scale
5.8 6.0 6.2 6.4 6.6 6.8 7.0 7.2 7.4 7.6
7.8
Acid Alkaline
The ideal pH for saliva lies
between 6.8 and 7.2
Think of pH as
Potential for Health
Healthy pH

8.  A high protein diet (70-80% protein; 20-
30% carbs)
 High levels of stress
 Highly processed foods (containing
preservatives)
 High amounts of sugar in your diet

9. Alkaline Forming:
◦ Fruits
◦ Vegetables
◦ Brazil nuts, coconut and almonds
◦ Soy Products
◦ Lima beans
◦ Sprouted grains and seeds
◦ Honey
◦ Maple Syrup
◦ Raisins
Acid Forming:
◦ Grains (unsprouted)
◦ All poultry, fish, meats and eggs
◦ Sugar and syrup, except honey
◦ Nuts
◦ Legumes
◦ Coffee
◦ Alcohol
◦ Pasta
◦ Soda
◦ Tea
◦ Flour based products
◦ Dairy products
To maintain proper pH levels, eat 80% of your diet from the alkaline
food list and 20% from the acid food list!
Foods

10.  Is it a challenge to include the
nine servings of vegetables and
fruits per day as recommended
by the USDA?
 Benefits of dark leafy greens are:
◦ Blood purifier
◦ Cancer prevention
◦ Immune strengthener
◦ Improve liver, gall bladder and kidney
function
◦ Fight depression
◦ Clear congestion, reduces mucus, improves
circulation

Connecting The
Body Systems

12. The Digestive System
•Where most of the nutrients &
toxins are absorbed in our
bodies
• Learn how the Digestive
System works

13. Feeding and Nourishing
the Body Systems:
Digestion
Step 1: We chew the food
As we chew the food, the body
produces enzymes to assist in the
digestion process.

14. Digestion
Step 2: The food moves down into the
stomach
•The stomach is the only acidic
organ in the body
•The stomach breaks the food down
& turns it into an isotonic liquid
state called CHYME

15. Digestion
Step 3: The Chyme moves down
into the Small Intestine
•The Small Intestine is about
21 ft. Long & 1.5 inches in diameter
•The Small Intestine is where most
of the ABSORPTION takes place

16. Absorption
• Inside the small intestine are
thousands of finger-like structures
called VILLI
• The outside surface of
the Villi and microvilli
add up to about 200
square meters (about
the surface area of the
singles tennis court at
Wimbledon)

17. Everything that is absorbed through
the VILLI (Nutrients, Medications, Chemicals
& Toxins) enters the blood stream and
lymphatics, and is then carried &
distributed throughout the body
Distribution of
Nutrients and Toxins
Digestion

18. Digestion
STEP 4: The unused food passes
into the Large Intestine
(colon)
•The large intestine is about 5 ft. long
and 2.5 inches in diameter
•This organ should eliminates the
unused foods and toxins from our
bodies 2 to 3 times each day.

19. The production of toxic chemicals
produced by the colon bacteria,
and the continuous diffusion of
these toxins into the colon wall
and ultimately the blood stream,
resulting in possible damage to
the colon wall as well as distant
sites in the body.

20. THE COLON
The American diet is
full of white flour, meat,
milk, sugar and
processed foods. As a
result, many people are
affected by waste build
up in their colons
causing
autointoxication.

21. Lymphatic System
Has two main functions:
1. Protects us from infection
(viruses, bacteria, fungi) and
tumors
2. Cleans up intercellular waste
{ Immune System }

22. Lymphatic System
 When functioning correctly, the Lymphatic
System will dump its waste into the colon where
it is trapped in mucus and is excreted
 However, when the colon and liver are not
working to full capacity, the Lymphatic System
will release its waste into the bloodstream
where it then settles into organs and tissues.

23. Circulatory System
The transport system for
your blood (heart, arteries and veins)
Before you have problems with your
circulatory system, like high blood pressure or
heart disease, you could have had problems
with - - -
Digestion, Elimination, and
Autointoxication

24.  Headaches
 Fatigue & Dizziness
 Skin Disorders (eczema, psoriasis, acne)
 Body Odor & Bad Breath
 Puffy Eyelids
 Difficulty Sleeping
 Hangover Feeling in the Morning
 Swelling/Edema
 Tenderness Under the Rib Cage

25.  All of your body systems must be
functioning properly to achieve optimal
health
 “There are no fences in your body”
Dr. Sheryl Duchess, N.D.
 Compromise any body system and
◦ We don’t function properly
◦ We don’t feel well
◦ We compromise optimal health

26. The Typical
American
Diet

27. Foods Ingredients and Their Effect on the Body
Donut White Flour - When mixed with water makes paste. Donuts
have little to no fiber and have big amounts of sugar.
TYPICAL AMERICAN DIET
Hydrogenated Oil -The hydrogenation process was
developed in 1912 to harden soap. The food industry uses
this process to develop hydrogenated oil to prolong the
shelf life of foods. This fake fat or hydrogenated oil can
cause lesions inside the arteries which impairs cell
function. As this happens over time, cholesterol & calcium
will stick to the damaged areas of the arteries thus leading
to blockage & hardening of the arteries.
Sugar - Destroys B-Vitamins. B-vitamins feed our nervous
system and help keep us calm.
Processed coffee beans –are acidifying. Coffee also
destroys our friendly bacteria.

TYPICAL AMERICAN DIET
Creamer
Substitute
Several Hydrogenated Oils ( Fake Fats) - cause cholesterol build
up inside our arteries.
Nutra-Sweet
or Aspartame
Aspartame when heated to high temperatures, the wood alcohol in
this chemical is converted by enzymes to formaldehyde. It
potentially can become a neurotoxin that passes the blood brain
barrier causing potential health challenges.

29. Foods Ingredients and Their Effect on the Body
TYPICAL AMERICAN DIET
Cheese
Burger
More white flour which makes paste. Processed cheese is
made with hydrogenated oils, and even looks like plastic.
Hamburger meat. Our cattle are fed antibiotics and
steroids. We don’t really know what meats are safe to
consume anymore.
French Fries Potatoes fried in more hydrogenated oil. More lesions
inside the arteries.
Coca Drink Phosphoric acid in soda’s will leach out and chelate the
calcium in our bodies. When we are acidic, our body will
rob calcium from our bones to neutralize the acid. The 1st
bone it will draw from is your jaw bone, a non-weight
bearing bone. The sugars in soda will cause acidity.

30. Canned
Foods
Loaded with preservatives. If you can’t pronounce the
words on the label don’t eat it. Because these can be
foreign chemicals, your body may not know what to do with
them.
Ice Cream All-American comfort food! Commercial Ice Cream is made
with over 300 different chemicals, one being Diethyl Glucol
used in Anti-freeze & paint removers.
Cookies More white flour, hydrogenated oil and sugar.
Pasteurized
Milk
When milk is pasteurized to kill the bacteria, it becomes an
inorganic form of calcium. It is not fully assimilated by the
body and calcium deposits tend to form from too little
calcium in the diet. Milk is also mucus forming. If you fed
pasteurized milk to a baby cow for 30 days, it would die.
We consume the most dairy in the world, but we have the

Foods Ingredients and Their Effect on the Body

31. Not So Typical
American Diet

32. Foods Ingredients and Their Effect on the Body
Fresh Raw
Fruits
Fruit is high in fiber and loaded with antioxidants like vitamin C
and bio-flavonoids. Fruits also contain a lot of water content. We
are 70% water and we need food that contains water to hydrate our
body. Fruit contains natural sugar that gives you a good source of
energy. Fruit is also a great source of phyto-chemicals, which are
nutrients found in fruits, vegetables, and grains that contain
special nutrients that help fight against cancer and other
disorders.
Fresh raw fruits are loaded with enzymes and when we eat our
foods raw 30% of the digestion is done for us by the food itself.
When we cook our food over 110 degrees F, we destroy the living
enzymes and our body must use its own enzymes for digestion
robbing us of energy.
NOT SO TYPICAL AMERICAN DIET

33. Foods Ingredients and Their Effect on the Body
Fresh Raw
Vegetables
Vegetables are mainly carbohydrates that are high in antioxidants,
phytochemicals and fiber. Dark green vegetables will help to
alkalinize the body and are a great source of calcium. Vegetables
are also low in calories and sugar so they feed your body with
nutrients without a lot of calories. There are at least 5 different
cultures that live extremely long lives where their average life span
exceeds 100 years old. One thing they all have in common is they
eat a lot of raw vegetables grown in very rich soil. We should try to
eat at least 2 large salads per day and 2 to 3 more servings of
fresh vegetables either steamed or stir fried in good oil like olive
oil. Don’t over cook them so you receive the vitamin content intact.
NOT SO TYPICAL AMERICAN DIET

34. The average vegetable found in today’s
supermarket is anywhere from 5-40% lower
in minerals, proteins and vitamins compared
to those harvested just 50 years ago.

35. Some supplement manufacturers often add in fillers
to their supplements for reasons that include:
o Easier and faster production
o More appealing to the eye
o Easier to swallow
But fillers can impact your body and health, as they
can have similar effects as some additives in
processed foods. Also, these fillers can block the
absorption of nutrients.

Tonic means “pressure”
