http://www.gethealthynowshow.com Hi, I'm Cary Ellis. I'd like to talk to you a little bit about the body's capabilities of healing itself. If you're carrying around extra weight you wish that you weren't, don't have as much energy as you once used to have, maybe see the signs of aging coming on, can't sleep as well at night, or have been diagnosed with some sort of illness. If you're looking for the path to get youthful, to have more energy, or to get yourself well, you've come to the right place.

I've bet there's something inside of you just saying, does it really have to be this way? Do I have to watch myself fall apart over the years and wonder if I can ever really get well? There is an answer to that hunger that all of us have inside to be youthful, attractive, beautiful, fit, strong and truly, truly healthy.

That answer lies in a story that started for me back when I grew up spraying an apple orchard as a child with my dad, from the days were we still sprayed with DDT, Chlordane, Melathion and poisons that were actually leftover nerve gases from World War II. By the time I was 18 years old, although I was gifted a really wonderful body, I was struggling for my health and I had chronic problems in my female organs, really internal serious physical issues and sensitivities. No one around me really knew how to solve this.

I ended up at a wonderful healing center out the country and I learned about detoxifying my body, pulling those poisons out, about cleansing and I went on a several week juice fast colonic program and mucus literally poured out of every orifice in my body. It sounds kind of awful but we have to look at those things when we want to clean things up so that the body can be well, so the cells can function like the way they should.

Going through that process in my own life and seeking, seeking where is wellness for me, where is that balance so that I am not having a struggle every day to be well? It set me off - I became a vegetarian at age 18 and move towards living foods over that first couple of years, I did regular body cleansing, detoxification, yoga, different activities to cleanse and heal and help develop wellness inside my cells and to get rid of some of the poisons that are just a chronic part of the culture that we live in.

So these personal health challenges on my own led me on a really wonderful journey. I began teaching when I was learning at alternative health centers where other people were coming in looking for their answers and the ancient Chinese say "We teach best that which we most need to learn", so I became a teacher of what was resolving my own challenges.

I was invited to become educator with Gerson Cancer Therapy Institute in Mexico. So I went and lived in San Diego area, went across the border every day, sometimes I stayed in Mexico. I actually did rounds on a daily basis with Charlotte Gerson Strauss and I was immersed in a cancer program.

Doctor Max Gerson realized that he might be onto something and some of the basics of the Gerson Cancer Therapy Program are what are consistent among all the healing programs today and they had to do with cleansing the blood, with making the body more alkaline, with cleansing the liver, the colon and the digestive system, eating predominantly vegetarian foods, a lighter diet, correct essential fatty acids, incorporating foods such as flat seed and getting fiber into the body that was critical.

I learned incredibly, wonderful things at the Gerson Institute and the best part of that learning was the people that I watched get well. I watched a man eliminate a grapefruit sized tumor through his chest wall and I began seeing what modern medicine would consider literal miracles. I began to see that the body could heal itself in amazing ways that we weren't conventionally taught. This began to establish a belief system in me.

From there I went and became a co-director of a wheatgrass institute in Michigan which was then called Hippocrates. Later changed their name, they're currently called Creative Health Institute, they're still in operation. We had a really awesome, young crew at the time, it was around 1980 and we developed incredible outreach program. We were full and every weekend we would have a big buffet of raw foods and teach people how to use wheat grass juice.

Immersing myself completely in the raw food lifestyle and teaching it was another step of watching people come who had cancer. I saw a man who had leukemia with a blood count so low that he should've been dead. And then on a week on wheatgrass, he had a normal blood count. I began to see these kind of changes in people's lives and I could see who was really getting helped and how they are getting helped. I had come to a point where I was really changing my belief system. Be sure to see part 2... and visit my blog at http://www.caryellis.com
