Coke Cleanse for Kidney Stones and More

Welcome to "Cleanse the Waste Wednesday!"  "What's up Wednesday" was fun...but I needed a day to focus on cleansing.  So many people are coming to me with the need to cleanse...so here is the beginning of a new series.  Yahoo!

 This is one of the most effective cleanses that I have seen, and it is relatively easy.

• 6 cans Classic Coke™ 
• 6-8 oz Asparagus (Fresh is best, but you can substitute frozen or canned)*
• 1 gallon of distilled water

Open all the cans of coke a few hours before you plan to get started, to let the fizz out (and stop eating).  You will want the Coke to be room temp (some people like to heat it up...not sure if they like the taste better warm, if they think it adheres to the stones better hot or if they think that boiling it will remove the caffeine or something, you are welcome to try it warm or hot, but room temp seems to be the best I've seen).  Drink all 6 of the cans within a 2 hour period of time.  Towards the end of your "drinking binge", prepare your asparagus* and once your coke is gone gobble up your asparagus as quickly as possible and then drink your distilled water at your own pace, throughout the day, until it is gone.  Avoid food for a few hours and plan to stay near the restroom as it begins to work almost immediately.  If you would like to see the stones you can strain and rinse your waste...This cleanse is mostly for kidney stones, but many of my clients report that it helps clear a lot more.  When we work on them before and after the cleanse I can almost always feel a difference in the signals to the liver, gall bladder and kidney...so, in my mind this is much more than  a kidney flush.

People say that it works because of the phosphoric acid in the coke...but if that was the case, then people who drink a lot of Coke should never get stones, right?  Well, that's not true.  I do agree that the phosphoric acid helps to break the stones up...but I think it needs the asparagus and distilled water to work.  My theory is that when you drink that much coke in that quick of a time frame your body treats it like a poison and traps it.  When you eat the large amount of asparagus it changes the pH in the body and sends the phosphoric acid like a magnet to the stones, breaking them up and chasing them out of the body.  The distilled water dilutes what is left and continues washing it out of the body, but the most important part is that it rehydrates the body. As a side-note, soda pop, in general dehydrates the body...creating the ideal situation to create new stones, so if you have a tendency to get stones easily...avoid carbonation (this includes energy drinks).  Also, if this cleanse doesn't work well it may be because you were dehydrated to begin with and didn't drink enough water after.

*For the asparagus,  I was originally taught that no matter how you get it down, just do it.  You can cover it in butter, lemon juice or Hollandaise sauce, whatever you need to eat it, and to eat it quickly.  Later I learned that it is best to steam or boil it and then process it in a blender until well pureed...pure liquid.  As you drink it, chew it to mix it with saliva.  If you cannot do this, then do whatever it takes to get it down.  Pureed is best, but anything is better than nothing.

** this should NOT be painful.  If the kidney stones do not fully pass you can repeat the process within 3 days. 

Scheduling a Series

I like to nickname everything.  For instance (as a total tangent), starting today, Fridays will now be known (on this blog) as "Foot Zone Friday". Back to the point at hand; when I learned about the series that the Academy teaches and the things that it does, I renamed it "The Master Reset Series."  It is based on a theory that every day is governed by an organ (or gland).  If the person receives treatment on the same day each week the organ in charge can be damaged by the extra burden created by the zone.  When you rotate days you allow the body to process and heal more thoroughly.

According to Kathy Duvall and Christine Christensen of The Academy of Foot Zone Therapy (training manuals) here is a breakdown of the days and the governing entities:

• Sunday: pituitary gland, cerebellum, eyes and ears (third eye chakra: indigo)
• Monday: thymus, heart, diaphragm, lungs, shoulders (heart chakra: green)
• Tuesday: thyroid, parathyroids, spine throat, bronchial tubes, larynx, tongue, salivary glands, and vocal cords (throat chakra: Blue)
• Wednesday: pineal gland. cerebrum, hypothalamus, brain stem (crown chakra: violet)
• Thursday: solar plexus, pancreas, stomach, gallbladder, kidneys, liver and spleen (solar plexus chakra: yellow)
• Friday: uterus, prostate, testes, ovaries, bladder, rectum, small intestine, colon, appendix, illeocecal valve, sciatica, hips and duodenum (sacral chakra: orange)
• Saturday: adrenals, circulatory system, arms, legs, feet, bones (general), immune system and torso (base chakra: red)

From this the following schedule was designed for people with chronic disease (8 zones in 11 weeks):

Master Reset Series

1. Friday (The series beginends on a Friday)
2. Saturday (8 days later)
3. Thursday (12 days later)
4. Monday (11 days later)
5. Tuesday (8 days later)
6. Wednesday (8 days later)
7. Sunday (11 days later)
8. Friday (12 days later)

It is very particular and needs to be done on the exact day, beginning and ending with Friday...but a few variations can be made if ABSOLUTELY necessary.  The less you stray, the better...but what I have found is that as long as you never go more than 14 days between treatments and hit every day of the week it is still good.  (good, better, best).  It is good to "try" to follow the schedule, it is better to mostly follow the schedule, and it is best to follow the schedule exactly.

I have seen enough evidence that I believe in this theory.  I cannot say for sure if each of these items governs on this particular day (Tuesday: Thyroid, etc.) but I do believe that they go in this exact order (thyroid one day, pineal gland the next, solar plexus the next etc.) So, based on that belief, I offer a second series called:

The Body Balance Series

It is simply 1 zone every 8 days starting on whatever day you feel like starting.  8 zones in 8 weeks and no matter what governing each day...we get it all.

When someone finishes the Master Reset Series I like to keep them on the body balance series until they get the results they were looking for.  We have seen big things happen in peoples lives while following this program.

I usually offer pretty rock bottom prices for people who commit to a series, so be sure to ask me about series pricing.

P.s. did you notice our new favicon (favorite icon) at the top of your screen?  We went back and forth between blue and orange.  Maybe we will randomly switch to see if anyone notices besides us.
