Chapter IV
The great majority of vegetarians have become such in order to regain their health after many years of suffering; perhaps after they were told by their medical doctors that their diseases were incurable and they had only a short time to live, as was the case with the author. They begin to read books on the vegetarian diet and acquire only a partial knowledge about the natural science of living and healing. Hence, they only succeed in getting a partial cure for their ills, by the dietetic information they can get. These persons, who are suffering with chronic disease and degeneration of vital organs find it most difficult to regain their health by diet only. In as much of as their cellular tissues are saturated with encumbrance of waste products and morbid matter, which is interfering with the normal function of their organism, it becomes necessary to resort to fasting to stop the process of digestion and absorption and give nature a chance to continue with the process of elimination of waste.
Before We Can Rebuild We Must Tear down the Old Structure
Hence, these accumulations of waste products must be eliminated from the body before its functions can become normal and health is restored. It is a law of physics that "two bodies cannot occupy the same space at the same time". Therefore, in accordance with this law, it will be impossible to regenerate the body with new cells unless the old, diseased cells, calcareous deposits, uric acid and other pathogenic substances are eliminated from the organism.
