Day 23 Mono Orange Juice

Day 23.

I am still relishing both the Orange juice and reaing Dr. Frank McCoy's accounts of helping people to heal using Orange juice.

We may not agree on all aspects of diet and healing, but this man had some wonderful successes in helping many folk to heal and re-balance.

many of them had been declared 'untreatable' by the so-called experts of the day. One young man of 24 was told by United States Government doctors that he had just 3 months left to live, after he was diagnosed with thyroid issues, an aneurism of the thoracic aorta and valvular leakage fronm the heart.

He was immediately put on a 30 day Orange juice diet, and two years later when McCoy was writing his book, the young man was still very much alive and well.

I finished clearing the grass from between the baby trees today and discovered several tiny Strawberry plants under all the grass, and also a tiny baby Star Apple and a tiny, just sprouting canistel.

Sleep and dreams are just great.

Energy is good too ♥

Day 22 Mono Orange Juice

Day 22, and I am still having a good ride on the Orange juice train.

It has been very hot here in South East Queensland, but the heat has fitted in well with my juice diet, and I have relished the heat and not needed even a fan on. Also I have been sleeping well in the sultry nights.

I have just bought a couple of old booklets, on the internet, by the Californian Fruit Growers Exchange (later to become 'Sunkist'). These Booklets were originally available by post free from the Exchange in the 1920's and 1930's.

One is about eating more fruit and less fat, and also about what acidosis really is, and how even though the citrus fruits are ph acidic, they have an alkaline effect upon the body.

The second pamphlet is about a study done in the 1930's that showed children who had a daily glass of citrus juice added to their diet had  greatly improved tooth and gum health.

I have seen this study mentioned earlier in another Exchange booklet, but this booklet is soley about the study and goes into it in further detail.

I am interested to see how the Orange juice given, really improved the dental health of the children.

The publication is called 'World's New Dental Story New Facts About Teeth and Gums and Diet'.

There seems to be so much information out there saying that fruit is not great for teeth and that citrus especially can damage teeth, that it is wonderful to see a study showing the opposite.

I  do appreciate however that unripe fruit, especially citrus can create issues with dental enamel.

Fruity fare ♥:

Morning—12  Biodynamic Oranges, juiced in mouth.

Afternoon—11 Biodynamic Oranges, juiced in mouth.

Day 21 Mono Orange Juice.

Three weeks on Orange Juice, and I have no desire to stop, nor am I tempted by any other fruit at the moment.

It is almost that the longer I go on Orange juice, then the easier it becomes.

I see Orange juice as my food.

One thing is that it simplifies life so much; there is no thinking about what I am going to eat.

Also I do not focus on diet so much, so there becomes more time for other things.

Today was very active for me, much of it in the hot sun, which at this time in Australia is just about the strongest it gets because we are closest to the sun on 21st of December.

I find that as long as I listen to my body and I am respectful of the mighty sun, then I do not burn.

I feel that listening to your body on how much sun it needs, plus the protective 'natural sunscreen' that a fruit diet provides means that the sun is my friend and never harmful to me.

I am still relishing Dr. Frank McCoy's book, it is amazing that a doctor sucessfully trated so many patients using an Orange Juice Cure.

McCoy also used other fasting and dietary measures, but an Orange juice diet was one of his most common treatments.

I managed to get hold of another three bags of Biodynamic Oranges, so tomorrow I will start on them again.

Fruity Fare ♥:

Morning—11 Organic Valencias, juiced in the mouth.

Afternoon—12 Organic Valencias, juiced in the mouth.

Evening—6 Organic Valencias, juiced in the mouth.

Day 20 Mono Orange Juice.

Day 20.

I have been really enjoying reading Dr. Frank McCoy's book.

I will quote a case study:

" Case 26. male 65 years of age. This patient was a retired physician who had been totally deaf for about 10 years. He came to me in the hope that I might be able to give him a diet which would relieve the catarrhal condition in his head and throat which had existed all his life. He remembered having catarrh as a boy, and was never entirely free from it at any time, but in spite of all the treatments he took in his endeavors to overcome the trouble, it gradually increased through the years, so that when he presented himself to me for treatment he was using several handkerchiefs daily. He gradually became deaf during the years of his practice, and the last few years had been spent as a specialist on a certain branch of medical science where acute hearing was not essential. After becoming totally deaf he found it hard to continue his practice at all and consequently retired from it altogether.

I explained the benefit of the fasting cure for his catarrhal condition, and suggested that his hearing might be regained. Of course he did not believe this, after eminent specialists had failed to help him.

He started on an orange juice fast to rid his system of catarrh. during the fast he used only the juice of 6 oranges daily, one taken every two hours with a plentiful supply of water.

The fast was continued for 25 days. After the tenth day certain loud noises could be heard. His hearing continued to improve, and on the eighteenth day of the fast he passed the test used for railway trainmen, and could hear a watch tick 18 inches from either ear...

The cure was completed several years ago and from time to time I have heard from the doctor, who has resumed practice, and has had no return of catarhal symptoms or deafness."

Over the last few days I have been eliminated some clear mucus in the morning.

My energy is generally very good, although there was a point today where I wanted to rest for a an hour in the afternoon.

My sleep is so wonderful and rested and my dreams are very vivid.

Fruity Fare:

Morning—12 Organic Valencia Oranges, juiced in the mouth

Afternoon—Ditto.

Fruitful Exercise:

1 hour fast walking

40 minute workout

20 minutes dancing.

Day 19 Mono Orange Juice

Day 19.

The Biodynamic Oranges have finished for the moment, but there are plenty of great Organic ones at the local wholefood store for just $2 per kilo (2.2lbs). They seem low in acidity, nicely tree-ripened and with a good flavour.

This Orange juice diet, I have juiced the vast majority of my Oranges in my mouth.

The advantages to this are that I get to taste the individual flavour of each Orange, plus it is a nice slow way to savour the juice.

The disadvantage is that the Orange juice is in quite a bit of contact with my front teeth.

The Oranges I have been using are nice and ripe and I rinse my mouth with water afterward, and I floss my teeth—so I feeel that these factors will help to ensure a lack of damage to tooth enamel.

Fruity fare:

Morning—the juice of 12 Biodynamic Valencias (the last ones!)Juiced in my mouth

Afternoon—the juice of 10 Organic Valencias, juiced in my mouth.

The Organic Valencias, are also pretty small, but a wee bit bigger than the Biodynamic ones. Therefore, during this Orange juice diet, I am not taking more juice than usual, but using more Oranges because they are smaller.

Exercise:

40 minutes fast walking.

Day 18 Mono Orange Juice

Day 18.

I have been enjoying a book from the 1920's called 'The Fast Way To Health' by Dr. Frank McCoy.

I bought it some time ago from Amazon, the edition was printed in 1926 and had a price cover of US $3, quite a lot of money back in 1926. 80 years later I too paid $3 for it from a second-hand bookseller. Funny how things work out.

Anyhow, McCoy helped many people to regain and rebalance their health using water fasting, fruit diets, and in many cases an exclusive Orange juice diet.

So it is wonderful whilst on an Orange juice diet myself to read his case histories of treating anything from catarrh to deafness to anemia using an Orange juice diet.

I have read his work before, but it is especially relevant for me to read his words whilst being on an Orange juice diet.

I am really enjoying my exercise and walking, because I feel such a nice fluidity in my joints which makes exercise even more of a pleasure.

I am now down to the last of my Biodynamic Beauties, so I will be having Organic Oranges in the next few days unless a new supply of Biodynamic Valencias arrives.

Fruity Fare:

Morning—the juice of 10 Biodynamic Valencias, juiced in mouth.

Afternoon—the juice of 6 Biodynamic Valencias, juiced in mouth.

Exercise:

40 minute workout

40 minute fast walk.

Day 17 Mono Orange Juice.

Day 17 and all's well.
I felt a need for more juice today, so I had an extra meal of juice.
For the most part I have been happy with two main juice meals, but a third one went down well today.
I am finding the smell of other fruit attractive, but I have no real desire at the moment to eat it.
Cappi, my younger boy, was eating an Heirloom Tomato today, and I loved the smell but did not want to eat one.
I had a mix of organic and biodynamic Valencias today.
I prefer the biodynamic overall, but it was also good to taste the difference of the organic fruit.

There are many, many Mangoes falling from our big tree, and I hope to try some...but just not at the moment. Also we have been getting Purple Panama Passionfruit from our vine, which I would like to try before their season ends, but just not ready yet to finish on the Orange juice.


My energy is still good, and I am finding that my usual workout flows better than normal. I am also having no issues at all with the summer heat which can reach up to 36 degrees Centigrade or 97 degrees Fahrenheit.

Fruity fare:
Morning—4 Organic Valencias, and 7 Biodynamic Valencias, all juiced in mouth.

Midday—12 Biodynamic Valencias, juiced in mouth.

Afternoon— 6 Organic and 6 Biodynamic Valencias, all juiced in Mouth.

Exercise:
30 minute walking
40 minute workout.

Have Beautiful Days ♥ ♥
