Adolf Just; the world's famous naturopath, in his book, Return of natural States, “fruits alone contain healing draughts for man; nature offers them ready made, they taste deliciously and are sure to cure all his suffering and disease. Fruits contain nectar and ambrosia”.
Fasting is considered as nature's oldest and most effective method of treating disease. The best and safest way of fasting is “juice fasting”. The procedure is to take juice of an orange or any other juicy fruits, such as an orange grapes, pineapple, water melon, etc diluted 50:50 with water, every two hours from 8a.m. nothing else whatsoever may be taken as the value of the juice- fast will be entirely lost. Canned or frozen juices should not be used. The total daily liquid intake should be about six to eight glasses.
Vitamins, minerals, enzymes and trace elements contained in fresh fruits juices are extremely beneficial in normalizing all the body process. They supply need elements for the bodies own healing activities and cell regeneration-and thereby speed up recovery.
Each day, while fasting, it should be ensured that the bowels are cleansed of the toxic matter thrown off by the self-cleansing process set up by the body. This can be done by warm water enema.
Next to the short juice-fasting, the all-fruit diet is natures finest eliminating medium. The all fruit diet is highly beneficial particularly in cases of bronchitis, rheumatism, chronic catarrh and constipation as it fills the body with life-giving mineral salts.
In the case of the all-fruit diet, one should take three meals a day of fresh, ripe juicy fruits such as apples, pears, grapes, oranges, grapefruit, pineapple, peaches, melon or any other juicy fruit in season.
Bananas should however, not be taken, nor should any other foodstuff be added to the fruit diet for drinks. Plain water or unsweetened lemon may be taken.
