There is now being publicly discussed on the Internet on various message
boards,  information about a woman "Caroline" who died because she water
fasted for her appendicitis. It is being contended that she needlessly
died a
painful death because she refused orthodox medical care that could have
saved
her life.
                                  APPENDICITIS-HOW TO HELP HEAL IT
By Dr. Bernarr, D.C.,D.D.
WHAT IS THE APPENDIX?
Appendix etymologically is derived from the Latin meaning "hanging,
worm-shaped form". The appendix is a narrow, finger-shaped, wormlike tube
that attaches to the cecum. The appendix attaches near the point that the
ascending (right) section of the large intestine (colon) joins the ileum
section of the small intestine. The length, diameter, direction and
relations
of the appendix are very variable. It varies in length from 3 to 6
inches. It
is most fully developed in the young adult.
                                                     APPENDICITIS
Appendicitis is an inflammation of the appendix. Appendicitis may occur at
any age and effects both sexes equally. Between puberty and age 25, is the
most common age of occurrence.
                            SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF APPENDICITIS
Nausea and vomiting are common symptoms of appendicitis. There is a recent
onset of constipation. There is a recent stoppage of flatulence. Later on,
there is mild fever. There is a rapid pulse. There is anorexia. The tongue,
though coated, is moist. There is pain and tenderness that begins in the
midabdominal area and then localizes in the right lower quadrant of the
abdomen. There is pain on passive hyperextension of the thigh. Often at
first, there is frequent urination, but later there may be retention of
urine. In appendicitis, the tendency is to draw the legs on the abdomen.
Pain
that is frequently mistaken for appendicitis, is caused by colitis,
constipation, proctitis, ovaritis, neuralgia of the spermatic cord,
strictures of the urethra and gallstone or gallbladder disease.
  HOW APPENDICITIS HEALS WITHOUT SURGERY, DRUGS AND TREATMENTS
The pain of appendicitis disappears after 3 days of water fasting with
"feeling meditation".
It is accepted by many abdominal surgeons, that many operations for a
pre-diagnosis of appendicitis, lead to subsequent findings of no
pathology at
all.
Richard C. Cabot, M.D. of Harvard Medical School, USA, wrote books that are
used as standard textbooks in medical colleges. Cabot's books on physical
diagnosis are considered standard in medical colleges. Cabot in his
"Layman's
Handbook of Medicine" wrote in 1916, of acute appendicitis, "People who
cannot get operated at once for acute appendicitis may get through by
starving themselves in the attack. Other than operation the essentials of
treatment are starvation and rest in bed. Starvation is necessary because
every mouthful of food taken into the stomach sends a wave of contraction
down the intestine as far as the appendix and beyond it. This wave of
contraction stirs things up and prevents the quieting down of the
inflammatory process. For the same reason, a purgative, which is often
given,
is the very worst possible treatment."
Sidney Wolfe, M.D., a representative of Ralph Nader's Health Research group,
testified before the Commission on Medical Malpractice, in Washington, D.C.,
USA, in 1972, that 500 people died unnecessarily, yearly, from needless
surgical appendectomies, in the USA.
William Howard Hay, M.D., of Pocono, Pennsylvania, USA, in the early 1900s
conducted a Natural Health institution for patients with all kinds of
"hopeless" illnesses.
Hay wrote that he successfully cared for 275 cases of acute appendicitis by
employing only water fasting and bed rest. Hay wrote that all of his acute
appendicitis patients recovered completely. Hay wrote that he successfully
cared for 57 cases of acute peritonitis, which resulted from ruptured acute
appendices. Hay employed only water fasting and bed rest to help heal his
acute peritonitis patients. Hay wrote that all of his acute peritonitis
patients recovered completely.  Hay is most famous for creating the Food
Combination Diet. Hay contended in his Food Combination Diet, that foods to
be eaten, should be combined according to their enzymatic secretion.
The inherent intelligence, the God within, walls off the evolving
appendicular abscess and that, once this is done, the line of least
resistance is into the colon, so that, if it ruptures, the pus is discharged
into the colon and passes out with the stools.
A hospital in Norway, in which all ruptured appendices were left alone, 80%
of all patients got well and 20% of these cases developed abscesses and most
of these got well.
NATURAL HYGIENE TEACHES THAT OUR BODIES ARE ALWAYS SELF-HEALING & ALWAYS DO
THE RIGHT THING WHEN WE HAVE DISEASES
Our bodies always do the right thing. We are passengers on the train of
life,
not the conductors. Since life began on earth, our God within, our inherent
intelligence within each cell of our bodies, has learned to make the optimum
adaptation and resolution, to any problem to which our bodies are subjected.
Whatever stresses our bodies presently have, our ancestors have successfully
learned how to successfully cope with such, previously. It is already built
into our genes, our chromosomes and our DNA. Our inherent intelligence,
if it
chooses to produce disease, it does so to protect us. This disease, or
whatever our pathology or symptomatology, helps us survive, despite our
self-destructive lifestyle, thinking and spirituality. Our disease is
for our
protective benefit.
Our disease will spontaneously heal, when the cause and need for our
inherent
intelligence, our God within, to produce disease, no longer exists.
NATURAL HYGIENE TEACHES THAT EVERY PATHOLOGY PRODUCES A CONCOMITANT
SYMPTOMATOLOGY
Natural Hygiene teaches that every pathology and physiological dysfunction
produces a concomitant symptomatology in all human beings. Only Natural
Hygiene has had the insight to write about this inherent self-healing
mechanism.
This means, that your inherent intelligence, your God within, is always
talking to you.  If you listen to it and obey it, you will always have good
health. So whenever you are ill, your inherent intelligence produces
symptoms
upon which you should concentrate, meditate on, pay attention to and feel,
until you are asymptomatic, i.e., until your symptoms completely and
permanently disappear. If and when you will do this, your illness and the
cause of your illness, will always help heal completely and permanently.

                   HOW TO MEDITATE PROPERLY TO HELP HEAL YOURSELF
You should lie down, keep your body inactive, keep your eyes closed and
concentrate, meditate, think on, keep your mind on your symptoms and
discomforts, until your symptoms and distresses completely disappear.
This is
"feeling meditation".
                 FEELING MEDITATION WILL HELP YOU HEAL YOURSELF
Meditation is listening to the God within, the inherent intelligence.
The God
within is always talking to you, not with words, but with communicating with
you via "feelings" throughout your body. Prayer is becoming silent, going
within, aligning with and acknowledging God as All-in-All. Meditation and
prayer are 2 steps with the same ultimate goal, communion with the God
within. You are an expression of the image and likeness of the God within.
You are whole and perfect. As you are already perfect, all you need do is to
commune with the God within, become aware of that perfection and become
healed.
        AVOID TREATING YOUR SYMPTOMS. TO HEAL, REMOVE THE CAUSE
To heal your health problems, you must remove its cause. To just treat your
symptoms, does not permanently heal yourself. In treating your symptoms, you
are just treating the effects, not the cause. Your symptoms exist for your
protective benefit. Your symptoms are the healing and detoxifying
reaction of
your inherent intelligence, your God within. Your symptoms are always
controlled by your inherent intelligence. This is why your symptoms should
never be destroyed, interfered with and suppressed. The destruction,
interference, and suppression of your symptoms, prevents these inherent,
protective bodily defenses from healing yourself. If your inherent
intelligence cannot heal your distresses, nothing and nobody else can. No
destructive, interfering and suppressive therapy of any kind can heal you,
but only your inherent intelligence can heal.
                                      THE BIBLE SAYS FASTING HELPS HEAL
The Bible says, "Not by prayer alone but by fasting too." Fasting
(abstinence
of all food by water) immediately benefits one while mental calm produced by
prayer is a great aid to restoration of poise.
EVERYONE SHOULD FAST, IF YOU CAN, TO HEAL IMMEDIATELY & PERMANENTLY
Everyone should be given a long fast as the surest and most rapid means of
freeing the body of toxemia. A fast is necessary to restore nervous poise to
one. Fasting usually leads to cessation of one's symptoms, permanently.
                                   EAT A CONSTRUCTIVELY BENEFICIAL DIET
Eat as constructive and beneficial a diet as is possible. Eat only natural
foods, that you would eat in the wild.  Eat only fresh, unprocessed raw
foods
that are palatable to you and that agree with you, with all the essential
minerals and essential nutrients. Every bit of cooking destroys vitamins,
enzymes, minerals, nucleic acids, chlorophyl and damages fats, making them
indigestible. The fatty matter becomes a local irritant.
                       HOW TO HEAL & PREVENT DISEASE PERMANENTLY
Every sick living being may be restored to sound health and remain free of
symptoms. To correct and prevent symptoms permanently, one must stop all
activities that cause enervation and toxemia.
                     HOW TO ALWAYS STAY WELL ONCE DISEASE IS HEALED
Once one is restored to good health, one should be taught how to keep
oneself
permanently symptom free, by a program that stresses eating natural, raw,
unprocessed foods, that one likes and that agrees with one, pure air, good
water, intense, progressive resistance exercise, air bathing and sunbathing,
as nude as possible, adequate sleep, feeling meditation, conservation of
sexual energy and appropriate observation of the other needs of life. One
should never do anything that does not improve one's physicality, mentality
and spirituality. One should never do anything from which one must recover.
