The diet should be low in protein and all white flour products should be avoided, as well as white sugar. Instead, stick to a natural wholefood diet and take plenty of juices, including beetroot, carrot and celery. Horseradish and young nettles should be eaten daily and, as a supplement to the diet, oysters, shrimps and squid have great therapeutic value.
A carrot juice diet is beneficial. Juices of grapefruit, grapes and oranges are also excellent. Experience will tell which juice suits you best, because certain acids, although harmless to people in good health, do not always agree with someone who is not quite so well. If you want to achieve good results without complications, follow the reactions of your body and take care. Also, drink only reasonable quantities of the juices, because you could do more harm than good by overdoing it. Caution is recommended even when the juices and remedies which are to help reduce weight are natural.
Extracts from animal glands may be helpful, but only if given in the appropriate doses, because they may otherwise do more harm than good. Exercise and deep-breathing, preferably in mountain or ocean air, are among some of the best remedies for stimulating the glands.
