Frederic Patenaude – The Greatest Cure on Earth

“In all seriousness, I must declare that fasting, when accompanied with a well planned food, is the closest thing to a ‘cure-all’ that can be conceived— deeply simple and simply profound!”

Dr. John Tilden

Hundreds of doctors throughout the world have employed this 5000-year-old procedure to eliminate excessive blood pressure, balance body weight, cut LDL cholesterol, guard against heart disease, and perhaps treat several malignancies.

Frédéric Patenaude’s

Imagine if a pharmaceutical company discovered a single drug that could treat hypertension, eliminate type 2 diabetes, significantly improve or even cure autoimmune diseases (such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus), a variety of skin conditions (including psoriasis), eliminate migraine headaches (even those that last for years), and improve depression symptoms better than antidepressants.

Imagine if this medicine could also extend your life, boost your immune system, minimize all inflammatory symptoms, and help you recover from a cold or flu faster than any other home or pharmaceutical therapy.

If, on top of that, taking this medicine resulted in the most deep sensation of mental clarity, we’d have to term it a “wonder pill.”

What if this medicine was completely free?

What’s more, what if there were no long-term negative side effects to this therapy?

“Therapeutic fasting speeds healing and helps the body to recover from serious sickness in a very short amount of time.”

Fasting and Eating for Health by Joel Fuhrman, M.D.

“In 5000 years, modern medicine has not discovered a pill with no side effects that can match the benefits obtained by this powerful, free therapy.”

“Who Am I, and Why Should You Trust Me?”

Fasting has increased my energy, digestion, mood, and mental clarity.

I’m a health journalist and writer who has spent over 20 years covering cutting-edge nutrition and natural healing themes.

Among my many books are The Raw Secrets, Raw Food Controversies, and The Sunfood Cuisine.

My website publishes the greatest in natural health and healing knowledge.

For this program, The Greatest Cure on Earth, I’ve collaborated with fasting specialists to bring you the most up-to-date information on this great cure.

It has the ability to improve your life and health, just as it did mine and the lives of millions of people worldwide.

It’s completely free.

You may access it at any time. It’s a power you already have within you.

The ability is known as self-healing.
Fasting is a type of treatment.

“How I Discovered Water and Juice Fasting”

At the age of 18, I discovered water and juice fasting, and it is one of the health practices that has made the most significant effect in my life.

I learned about water fasting from Dr. Albert Mosseri (of France) and Dr. Herbert Shelton’s publications (of Texas). These two doctors were water fasting pioneers, having personally conducted over 10,000 fasts at their separate health centers.

Reading these fasting testimonies, I was astounded by the stories of people from all over the world who used this easy, yet misunderstood, therapy to alleviate a variety of health issues.

Fasting can help with a variety of health issues.
Autoimmune conditions
Chronic pain and headaches
Hypertension
Anxiety, Depression, and Chronic Fatigue
Skin Conditions
Ulcers

My first fasting experience was a revelation. First, I realized that going without meals was not all that tough if I understood what to anticipate. Second, I had more energy and a better mood increase than from coffee or any other thing!

I’ve tried with several types of fasting throughout the years, including:

Several 3-5 day water fasts
Fasting on Juice
A weekly practice of fasting for 24 to 36 hours, as well as other kinds of intermittent fasting
A seven-day fast
A 23-day lengthy water fast

Each fast taught me something new about the extraordinary capabilities of fasting. Each fast provided me with unique advantages.

I discovered that frequent, brief fasts were the most effective tools I had ever discovered for finding balance, increasing energy, improving sleep, and eliminating the “blues” or despair.

Longer fasts were tremendous spiritual weapons that allowed me to dig deeper and feel more than just physical advantages, but a total shift in my viewpoint and life direction. After my 23-day water fast, I grew my business from a 40K/year hobby to a larger enterprise with 500K in revenue. All of this occurred only nine months after my fast!

“Concentration appears to improve, creative thinking expands, depression lifts, insomnia ends, concerns dissipate, the mind becomes more serene, and a natural joy begins to manifest in fasting participants after four days. My belief is that when physical poisons are removed from brain cells, mind-brain function improves automatically and considerably, and spiritual powers develop.”

Dr. Gabriel Cousens

“Rather of taking medication today, you should fast.”

Plutarch was a Greek moralist and biographer.

“Fasting’s Amazing Anti-Inflammatory Benefits”

Fasting is the most effective natural anti-inflammatory treatment. Several animal tests and human research have demonstrated this.

For eight weeks, James B. Johnson, M.D. (from Louisiana State University’s department of surgery) put nine overweight asthma patients on an alternate-day fasting diet.

Because of decreased inflammation, those asthma patients shed 8% of their weight, cut 20 points off their cholesterol, and improved their airways by 15%.

“There’s nothing out there that would work as effectively as that, other than systemic steroids,” Dr. Johnson stated.

“The finest treatment of all is rest and fasting.”

Franklin, Benjamin

Fasting revitalizes the immune system in just three days.

There is a lot of hype in the natural health field, and phrases like “rejuvenate” are frequently misused.

However, in the case of fasting, we may claim that it causes a total reset of the immune system.

Dr. Valter Longo, an aging and longevity researcher, came to this conclusion. Longo and his colleagues revealed in a recent study that fasting for three days or longer reduced white blood cell levels, which stimulated the immune system to begin manufacturing new white blood cells.

These cells are an important part of your immune system.

Fasting has been shown in studies to boost macrophage activity and cell-mediated immunity.
Antigen-antibody complexes have been reduced.
higher levels of immunoglobulin
enhanced bactericidal activity of neutrophils
Reduced lymphocyte blastogenesis resulted in increased monocyte killing and bactericidal activity.
increased activation of natural killer cells

These complex scientific phrases all signify the same thing:

Fasting for a few days boosts your immune system significantly, which can help you prevent sickness, fight cancer, and stay fit and vibrant into old age.

“Fasting is the single most powerful natural healing therapy.” It is nature’s old, universal’remedy’ for a variety of issues. When animals are sick, they move quickly.”

Staying Healthy with Nutrition, Elson Haas, M.D.

What Is the Process of a Fast?

Every day, we fast for at least 8-10 hours — while we sleep.

Your body enters “repair and recovery mode” during this “night fast.” It recovers from the day’s wear and strain. All of the tension of the day is processed by your brain.

We increase the advantages of fasting by prolonging the night “fast” that we all perform.

The initial 16-36 hours
Approximately 3-4 days
5-21+
What Happens If You Get Hungry During a Fast?
The body uses up its immediate glucose stores: food in the intestines and reserves in the liver and muscles. Endorphins and other euphoric chemicals are produced. Mental fog dissipates, and vigor rises. Finally, the body has a chance to rest its organs and clean itself on a cellular level. The immune system is aroused, and inflammation begins to diminish.
Healthy Food Will Taste Delicious

One of the most significant advantages of fasting (even a brief fast) is that it “re-calibrates” your taste senses.

Consider fruits to be more delicious than any cake or dessert. Or how about a plain salad being more appealing and tasty than the most sumptuous junk food? It is possible that it will happen to you!

You may overcome your urges and resume eating nutritious meals.

“Fasting can help you heal faster; cleanse your liver, kidneys, and colon; purify your blood; help you shed excess weight and water; drain out toxins; clear the eyes and tongue; and cleanse your breath.”

Prescription for Nutritional Healing by James F. Balch, M.D.

Do you believe you have what it takes?

When I talk about fasting on juices or water, many people swear they could never do it, even if they’ve never tried!

Does this describe you?

I enjoy eating much too much.
It may sound strange, but incorporating some fasting into your life is one of the finest ways to appreciate eating right now. Do you ever have the feeling that cuisine that used to delight you is now merely boring? You’ve probably numbed your taste buds by overstimulating them. Fasting resets your taste buds, making food taste better!

I’m becoming too old to quickly…
Fasting is one of the most effective techniques to extend life by lowering inflammation and increasing the production of youth hormones. Furthermore, as we age, we require less calories. That is why, around the age of 50, we frequently gain a significant amount of weight. Incorporating a fasting practice can be an excellent approach to avoid the fat loss that occurs with aging while also benefiting from the fast’s longevity-enhancing properties.

“The body’s remarkable capacity to autolyze (or self-digest) and eliminate unnecessary tissue such as fat, cancers, blood vessel plaque, and other nonessential and unhealthy tissues, while preserving essential cells, provides the fast the power to restore the system’s physiologic youth.” Fasting enhances blood flow and consequent oxygenation and nutrition delivery to essential organs throughout the body by eliminating or reducing the load of sick tissue, especially fatty tissue that narrows blood vessels.”

Fasting and Eating for Health by Joel Fuhrman, M.D.

Isn’t Fasting Bad for Your Metabolism?

You’ve undoubtedly heard that fasting is bad for your body since it teaches it to “hang on to calories” after the fast. Your metabolism slows, making it easier to gain weight after a fast.

The evidence indicates that it is untrue.

Martin Berkhan, an athlete, observes intermittent fasting and writes:

“Short-term fasting really increases metabolic rate.” For specifics, research have found a 3.6% – 10% rise after 36-48 hours. From an evolutionary standpoint, this makes sense. The neurotransmitters epinephrine and norepinephrine (adrenaline/noradrenaline) sharpen the intellect and make us desire to move about. Desirable characteristics that prompted us to seek food or the hunter to kill his prey, thereby enhancing survival. After many days of not eating, this benefit would have provided little benefit to survival and would have likely done more damage than good; instead, an adaptation that promoted energy saving proved useful. As a result, metabolic rate increases during short-term fasting (up to 60 hours).”

Why?

People who fast on a regular basis have a lower body weight than those who do not. Practicing the correct sort of fasting program for you will not cause you to compensate by overeating on non-fasting days. You will not acquire weight if you do not eat!

In reality, the reverse is true! The hormonal reaction to fasting causes a small increase in metabolism.

When you fast, your body fat is used for energy. Your body is wise and will keep its muscular mass. That is why many athletes adopt intermittent fasting to maintain a lean body and perform better.

Fasting and Anxiety, Anxiety and Neurosis

Are you frequently overwhelmed by tension and worry?

Did you know that depression is the world’s second largest cause of disability?

Stress-related diseases and complaints account for up to 85% of all doctor’s office visits, and stress is widely recognized as a job danger.”
Mache Seibel, M.D.

Fasting has long been known to offer great advantages for healing stress-related disorders such as depression, anxiety, and neuroses. Dr. Yuri Nikolayev, director of the Moscow Psychiatric Institute’s fasting section, reported on the effective treatment of over 10,000 patients using scientific, therapeutic fasting.

He concluded, “Fasting rests the entire nerve system and brain.” The body is also cleaned of toxins, and the tissues and glands are rejuvenated.”

A single fasting day may reset your brain, increase serotonin levels, and regulate your mood!

Fasting helped me gain emotional stability and balance at difficult times in my life, including a divorce and the loss of my father at the same time. You must try it to understand!

Juice Fasting vs. Water Fasting

In “The Greatest Cure on Earth,” we discuss both juice and water fasting.

Water Juice Fasting Juice fasting 500 to 1500 calories per day You only drink water, and you burn your own body fat.
Can be done without supervision in most cases, but must be watched after 3-5 days.
Improves weight, energy, digestion, blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and a variety of other health issues
Increased immunological health, eradication of auto-immune illnesses, greater self-healing, and mental clarity
This results in some detoxification.
More detoxification
Fat Loss Through Intermittent Fasting

Intermittent fasting is another way of water fasting that is simpler to practice and can result in a variety of advantages, including:

Fat reduction
Immune system enhancements
Possible increase in lifespan
Overall energy and well-being rise

It becomes more difficult to shed weight as you get older.
Long-term fasting, on the other hand, is not suggested for weight reduction because it is not a habit that can be maintained on a regular basis.
Intermittent fasting, on the other hand, can help you maintain your weight or lose those last few pounds that have been nagging you.

So much so that many athletes have adopted various types of intermittent fasting to increase their performance and reduce their body fat.

Nature never intended for humans to consume three meals a day, seven days a week. Humans had to deal with a constant dearth of food as they progressed. One day, the guys returned from their hunting trip empty-handed, or the fruit trees did not yield as much as usual. There had no choice except to fast.

We currently live in a world of infinite food supply. It’s both a blessing and a curse in disguise. It’s unrealistic to expect you to constantly adjust your diet and check calories! Why? It does not work because your hunger will catch up with you and you will overeat.

One way is to practice intermittent fasting, of which there are several choices that we discuss in depth in The Greatest Cure on Earth.

“I’ve eliminated my extra body fat and now feel terrific in my own skin!”

My first purpose for fasting was to get rid of my Pirelli and love handles. I was still overweight despite working out six times a week and dieting!

I began fasting for 24 hours each week over three months ago and saw physical improvements in just six weeks. The first thing I noticed was how simple it was to spend 24 hours without eating. The first three times were more challenging, and I struggled to focus. But after that, it was simple. I just began fasting additional day every week since I thought I was eating too much in the days preceding the fast. I established a decent balance and will maintain it for a long, returning to fasting one day each week if required.

The results: I have lost my excess body fat, and I now feel great in my body! I have a feeling of wellbeing that makes me feel happy and victorious. One thing that came as a surprise is that the mental benefits even outweigh the physical ones. I used to have mood swings, and I could get irritable with a few little things. Now I feel so much calmer, and for me, that’s almost miraculous!
Many thanks and again, I think this experience will change my life.
Sophie

How to Cut 10 Years From Your Age

Fasting is a powerful way to rejuvenate the body. My experience has also shown me that the rejuvenating effects of a fast are not limited to fasts longer than five days, but also occur with the regular practice of short, intermittent fasting.

After a fast, a 37-year-old may look like a 26-year-old.
A 58-year-old woman might pass for 35.

“I fasted for 29 days, and I was in the third week of my re-feeding after the fast.”

I always looked a bit younger, with nice skin. But my joy of living and my energy, more than anything, were a testament to the spectacular transformation that happened in my body. I hadn’t seen my daughter for several months. When she came to visit me, she couldn’t believe her eyes and said. “But… you look like a young girl!”
Hannah Allen, 58 Years Old

Here are just some of the transformations that I witnessed from fasting:

These people fasted with me, the first time I did a long fast. It was not just the weight loss that caused the amazing rejuvenation. It was the energy that these people had after the fast. It was the energy of youth.

“I Had Psoriasis for 53 Years”

For the last 53 years, I’ve had very bad psoriasis. For 23 years, I tried everything: drugs, injections, lotions, and natural medicines. My psoriasis kept getting worse. In the end, I lost all faith in drugs.

I then tried diets, vitamins, fruit cleanses, juice cleanses, raw milk, goat’s milk, steamed vegetables, etc. I tried vitamins, minerals, but my psoriasis wasn’t impressed and laughed at all of this.

After just a few days of fasting and the diet you recommend, my psoriasis got better than it had in years. At the same time, by some miracle, my asthma also disappeared. What a joy to be breathing again!

I’m not totally healed, but every day, when I look at my skin, it gets better. I could not be happier.”

Glenn. O, Lampert, Turalose, NM, USA

“I Was Too Young to Be Feeling This Way!”

I was always tired and heavily toxic, with chronic systemic low-grade inflammation, in pain, stiff and chronically fatigued physically as well as chronic mental brain fog, and sleep deprivation) for at least 15 years. I wanted out!

I now feel alive for the first time! It’s as the sun broke through the clouds and I could feel the sunshine again, fo the first time in over a decade.

I started eating fruit instead of all the cakes and sweets that I was eating before. I lost 30 pounds that way. I then fasted for three weeks and got down to 110 pounds (for 5’8″).

I look better than I have at any point in my life, and people are complimenting me on my looks! I feel alive. I’m now very active: cleaning the house, doing the things I would always put off. I’m telling everybody how great how feel! My husband has noticed the difference. I feel better than on my wedding day. My husband also changed his diet, impressed by my results!”

N. Roberge, as told in “The Greatest Cure on Earth.”

“82% of Patients With Hypertension Achieved
Normal Blood Pressure”

NIH Public Access

Hypertension is a silent killer. Even people who think they don’t have high blood pressure are still suffering the consequences of this illness.

Did you know that 68% of deaths related to high blood pressure occur in people with blood pressure under 140/90? We’re talking about someone with a near “perfect” blood pressure of 125/85

Water fasting is the most powerful way to cure hypertension permanently. In one study, published by the fasting center True North, 82% of the patients with hypertension achieved normal blood pressure, under 120/80, by the end of the fast.

But the best thing is that… the benefits seem to continue AFTER the fast, and therefore, appear to lead to a permanent improvement in your cardiovascular health. Of course, it’s important to change your diet after the fast to a health promoting one.

“Glaucoma – Healed in 3 Days”

“I am 70 years-old and I have glaucoma. My eyeballs were aching. I consulted my ophthalmologist who prescribed drops to be used three times a day.

I religiously used them for three days, hoping that the pain would disappear. It didn’t work.

Then, by chance, I discovered fasting through your books. What did I have to lose in trying?

So I fasted for three days, then I radically changed my eating habits.

The results were surprising in all respects: the glaucoma disappeared as if by magic!

A few months later I went to see the same ophthalmologist for an eye test. I confessed that I hadn’t followed his treatment of eye drops. Although I no longer had painful eyes he insisted that if I didn’t use the drops I could become blind!

He examined and re-examined my eyes, using all the known tests, then he said to me:

Madam, you are lucky.

In fact, there was no further trace of glaucoma, and my eyesight, as well as my general state of health, were much better.”

A Sauny, as told in The Greatest Cure on Earth.

Why Haven’t You Heard About
This Remarkable Therapy Before?

Fasting is as close to a miracle cure as there is.

Although this therapy has been known for thousands of years and has been actually used in the United States by medical doctors for over 200 years, it is not widely accepted by the medical community, and very few doctors recommend it. Many of them — without any experience with it whatsoever — believe it can be harmful. Why? Because it’s what the medical establishment have been repeating for years: natural therapies don’t work and can be dangerous – you should put all of your faith instead in true “science.”

Sometimes people wonder we don’t do more research on fasting or alternative therapies.

The truth is that the majority of medical research is done by medical companies, and they have absolutely no incentive in researching a free therapy.

Pharmaceutical companies would lose money they promoted a treatment that did not involve a lifetime of drugs — namely a natural solution that uses your body’s ability to heal itself. It would only cut into their profits.

Fasting (along with a health-supporting diet) can lead to such improvements that drugs are no longer necessary or needed.

None of this disparages drugs. They’ve saved many lives. But I’m sure you’ll agree that it’s better to lead a healthy life without drugs, and all of their dangerous side effects.

Diabetics, you could save your health with fasting, which can reverse 90-95% of Type II diabetes. Dr. Wilhelmi de Toledo writes: “This is a disease we know that we can cure [through fasting]. But there is an industry that sells all these drugs and devices. We have a type of medicine [in fasting] that is highly successful, but there is no return on investment.”
The natural cure for erectile dysfunction (ED) may be fasting and a diet rich in ONE food item you can find in most grocery stories. By boosting the body’s production of nitric oxide, a substance that helps dilate arteries, you get the benefits of ED medications with absolutely no harmful side-effects. During fasting, the body scourges on dead and diseased tissue. Blood flow improves to every area of the body. Combined with this one food, you can achieve lasting improvements in ED.
