Many natural healers advocate fasting as a way to remove toxins from the body. In this abridged edition of Mucusless Diet Healing System, Professor Arnold Ehret explains his theories on mucus and poisons in the body and describes how dietary improvements in conjunction with fasting could cure disease. Ehret believed that any waste eliminated by the body (what he generally classified as "mucus") was a manifestation of illness or imbalance. He concluded that high-protein and starchy foods were the principal causes of mucus and that a diet based on fruits and vegetables was ideal. Discover Ehret's guidelines for optimal fasting for better health, along with his recommended meal plans, transition menus, and recipes.
