Organs and Glands, Herbs
and Other Food-Derived Supplements
We
have mentioned a number of special foods,
such as cod
liver oil, the sea
vegetable dulse, and celtic salt. These
are foods used in small amounts to provide
rich sources of many of the nutrients I’ve
described. A number of herbs and food-derived
belong in this category, along with freeze-dried
organs and glands, essential traditional
foods prepared as outstanding food supplements
useful in even the best diets.
Organs and Glands
Our
Dr. Ron’s individual products include
thyroid,
liver,
heart,
brain,
thymus,
kidney,
pancreas,
adrenal,
ovary
and testicle.
We’ve also created the ultimate traditional
superfood – Organ
Delight, a combination of liver,
heart, brain, thymus, kidney, spleen, pancreas,
and adrenal. Until now, these special foods
have been unavailable as pure, 100% additive-free
supplements. We prepare them by freeze-drying
freshly harvested organs and glands at 40
to 60 degrees F below zero. Freeze-drying
tissues preserves the unaltered proteins,
enzymes and the fat-soluble activators so
important in traditional diets. The tissues
we use are taken only from grassfed, inspected
animals, raised without the use of pesticides,
hormones or antibiotics, in New Zealand –
where mad cow disease has never occurred.
Fiber and enzymes
These
are supplied in the diet by a variety of plant
foods (in the case of fiber), by raw foods
(especially raw proteins) and by fermented
foods such as cultured dairy products and
lacto-fermented condiments and beverages.
Most people do not obtain nearly enough of
either. Fiber is not usually thought of as
a nutrient, since it provides no calories,
but it is of tremendous importance. Usually
I recommend one to two teaspoonfuls of pure
grade A psyllium fiber first thing every
morning, taken with two or three glasses of
water. Even larger doses may be recommended
for those with gastrointestinal problems.
Psyllium often works wonders. Since it is
not absorbed, it simply bulks up the stool.
This reduces pressure in the intestines, eases
straining, and promotes easy and regular bowel
movements in the process.
Enzymes
are provided only in raw and fermented foods,
and the enzymes in raw proteins may be the
most valuable. For those unable or unwilling
to consume raw or fermented animal foods,
I recommend two capsules or more of pancreatic
enzymes once a day with a meal. Large doses
of pancreatic enzymes can be especially important
for some people. Our pancreas capsules are
the richest natural source of pancreatic enzymes.
