The Week in Review for November 30 – December 4, 2009

I’m going to try something new and finish the week with my top 5 and bottom 3 matches of the week and my pick for show of the week and if I can find it on Youtube the best match of the week. If this goes Ok, this will be weekly and posted after the final show of the week. So on with the best matches for the week

1. Christian & Shelton Benjamin v. Vladimir Kozlov & Ezekiel Jackson from ECW 4/5
2. Dolph Ziggler v. Matt Hardy 4/5 from Superstars
3. Alex Shelly v. Doug Williams 4.5/5 from Impact
4. Mickie James v. Beth Phoenix v. Natalya 4.25/5 from Smackdown
5. Drew McIntyre v. John Morrison 4.5/5 from Smackdown

Worst matches of the week

1. Randy Orton v. Kofi Kingston 1/5 from Raw
2. Mark Henry v. The Miz 1/5 from RAW
3. Kane v. Mike Knox 1.5/5 from Smackdown

Overall the best show of the week goes to WWE Superstars which had three great matches with a 3, 3.75 and a 4. If Impact had done a better job with Daniels v. Abyss and the main event it would have won with 4 great matches, but those two matches killed the show for me.

Overall Rankings

1. Monday Night RAW averaged a 1.75/5 for 4 matches in over two hours, which shows there was way too much filler this week and no match passed a 2.5 which went to the divas. Easily one of the worst episodes of Monday Night Raw ever.
2. ECW on Syfy averaged a respectable 3.25/5 for 3 matches. Two very good matches and one debut, which was basically a squash then. A good episode of ECW which I enjoyed, but any show with Christian, Shelton Benjamin, William Regal and Goldust, I like.
3. Superstars averaged a 3.75/5 for 3 matches. All three matches were very good, with some of the best talent in WWE. As I said in the review, not a bad match in the bunch for this week. Very pleasing episode this week.
4. TNA Impact averaged a 3.5/5 for six matches. If not for the Daniels/Abyss and main event being weak matches the rating would’ve been so much higher. Still an excellent outing from TNA this week as even the bad matches were better than the best matches on RAW which is both sad and funny at the same time.
5. Friday Night Smackdown averaged a 3.25/5 for six matches. If it wasn’t for the awful Kane v. Mike Knox match this rating would definitely have gone up. Smackdown had two of the best matches for this week and was an almost perfect show.

Overall this was a very good week for wrestling, other than the abysmally poor Monday Night RAW, which was just pathetic. Let’s hope we get a better episode of RAW this week.

For those that missed the great John Morrison vs Drew McIntyre match, I did find it on youtube and here it is, this is not my copy, just one I happened to find online. It is in two parts, enjoy.

ECW on Syfy – December 1, 2009
Welcome to my second ECW recap. Two weeks ago on ECW we saw Hurricane defeat one of my favorites, Paul Burchill, sending Burchill out of ECW. I am not happy about losing the Burchills; I think Katie is one of the most underused Divas in WWE along with Natalya. Paul is one of the best wrestlers in the company along with Charlie Haas, Shelton Benjamin and Jack Swagger and none of those four seem to be poised to get anywhere, albeit we do have Shelton v. Christian coming up at the PPV. So, online rumors are saying WWE wants to kill ECW; well ECW has truly been dead since 2001. WWE’s bastardized version of ECW is only ECW in name, but does not have the heart or soul of the original. I am curious to see what WWE is planning to do with the show, as Vince still wants a Tuesday show. Last week saw the end of Regal’s Roundtable, or did it? We’ll have to wait and see as ECW is about to begin.
We open with the great opening theme and video, Shelton & Christian v. Vladimir & Ezekiel for the main event, well, that should be odd.
1. Tony Atlas welcomes us to The Abraham Washington Show with our guests Zack Ryder & the always stunning Rosa Mendes. This should be interesting to say the least; Zack is impressive on the microphone. Abraham Washington, the poor man’s Rock, ask Tony how his Thanksgiving was. Tony begins rambling, as only Tony can do while Abe tries to stop him, to the loud boos of the crowd. Tony asks Abe about his holiday, Abe says everyone wanted his autograph. Tony starts his legendary laugh, which just makes the show. Abe starts knocking Virginia, isn’t that where Atlas is from? Abe starts with the lame ass redneck jokes, which Atlas continues to laugh at. Abe asks Tony, where you from, Tony answers “Virginia” to a loud pop. Abe then welcomes his guest for this evening, Rosa looking very hot in black and red, yummy! Abe asks what is the story of Zack and Rosa, Zack says he wrote a poem. Zack tested and Ryder approved, that was legendary, Zack spills out his heart to Mendes. Rosa responds by saying she has a poem for him too, this isn’t just too funny. Zack pulls a Tom Cruise and jumps on the couch, a little outdated, but hilarious. Abe says that’s a wrap, the show is over. Abe & Tony leave to Zack still jumping on couch. We get a recap of last week’s roundtable collapse, so what are the odds of either Zeke or Vladimir being in the main event one day? Regal backstage with Zeke and apologizes to Jackson, Zeke says his temper got the best of him and he’s sorry, but he won’t apologize to Kozlov. Regal has to get in between his two charges; I guess the Round Table has been repaired. Darn, I was looking forward to Jackson v. Kozlov!

2. William Regal v. Goldust. I just watched a watch between this two from old WCW 90s, kind of funny to see it now, some 16 years later. Goldust was such an innovative character back in 95, what a heat getter he was. The whole Razor/Goldust feud was amazing for its time. Should be a good match, as Regal is out there with both member of the Round Table. Goldust starts with Regal in the corner and pounds Regal before hitting a nice vertical Suplex. Regal rolls out side and staggers into a Goldust punch, Goldust throws Regal back in and continues the offense. Goldust sets up Regal for Shattered Dreams, Regal begs off as Jackson gets up on the apron, distracted the golden one for Regal to get the advantage. Regal beating on Goldust like a government mule, and then to a rest hold. At least it didn’t last long; Goldust goes for sunset flip and eats a pair of knees to the back of the head from Regal. Goldust powers out of Regal’s rest hold and hits some offense, Regal whips Goldust in and Kozlov goes to hook the leg and Jackson pulls him back. Kozlov and Jackson argue outside distracting Regal who gets rolled up and Goldust wins. 3.25/5 excellent little match, even the rest holds weren’t bad. Looks like dissention in the troops still, as both guys continue to blame the other. We go backstage to Tiffany with the Burchills, Tiffany says you lost and you both are gone. Katie tries to interject and Tiffany says there is nothing I can do. As they leave two new guys come in, one mentions Paul as a pirate, ok, he’s my new favorite guy for bring that up. They keep cutting of Tiffany as they say they’re going to make Tiffany look like a genius!

3. Trent Barreta & Caylen Croft v. Tyler Hilton & Bobby Shields. Ok, so that’s who the two guys were backstage with Tiffany, well new blood is always nice; even if they have the worst sounding music I’ve ever heard. Never heard of any of these four guys, so no idea what to expect here. We start with Hilton & Barreta, with Trent getting the cheap advantage. Trent makes the tag to C2, who’s got Hilton down and pounds on him before another quick tag. Trent hits a nice jumping knee drop to the head of Tyler. Hilton hasn’t got a single move in yet, as Croft misses a blind charge and Hilton makes the tag. As Shields does about as well and gets pummeled and quickly pinned. 2.5/5 it was a squash match to debut two new kids, what more could we expect. Some nice moves and a really cool double team from B&C. These kids remind me of Mercury & Nitro, hope they have a career like Nitro not like Mercury. Savannah backstage with Vance Archer, as we get clips of his run of jobber matches. Vance says he’s not like most superstars, he says he’s destined to be on top. Well, he’s big, muscular and slow moving, so he’s probably right. Says Vance is the one you need to worry about, picture it Vance v. Undertaker at Mania, just kidding, I hope. We get the Smackdown recap, I guess since RAW sucked so bad why remind us of that. Maybe it was all a nightmare and that RAW never happened, oh it did, I recapped it.

4. Christian & Shelton Benjamin v. Vladimir Kozlov & Ezekiel Jackson. This is a Vince Russo classic idea, two guys who hate each other as tag partners. Cool, Hurricane v. Zack on Superstars that should be an excellent match. I look forward to Superstars so much, at least there’s no garbage on there with GM, guest hosts, etc. Just some good solid matches with the midcard guys who deserve the airtime. Jackson and Christian start the match with Jackson easily overpowering the Canadian star. Christian relies on his speed to get behind the big guy; Christian comes off the ropes and gets nailed. Christian moves out of the way and Jackson to the floor, back in and a huge slam from Jackson. Christian makes the tag, and Benjamin whipped in, counter and off the top catching Kozlov. The distracting costs Shelton as he hits the floor hard. Commercial break, we come back to Jackson with a reverse bear hug on Benjamin. Christian fights out and makes the tag, Christian enters with a cross body for two. Jackson presses Christian who slides out and nails Kozlov. Christian gets caught though and then slammed twice. Kozlov wants in and Jackson obliges. Kozlov chokes Christian in the corner, Kozlov caught running in but then just tosses Capt. Charisma across the ring. Kozlov tags in Jackson who continues the beat down on Christian, Christian tries to fight back and just gets knocked down with ease. Christian outside the ring and gets posted by Regal, Jackson comes over and drags Christian to his feet and rolls him in. Kozlov makes the tag in, and works over the shoulder and arm of Christian. For a World Champion, Christian is getting massacred tonight. Christian finally hits some offense with a nice tornado DDT, Shelton anxious to get in. As Kozlov goes for the Jackson drops down and leaves, Kozlov turns around to a fresh Benjamin who hits a big splash and Paydirt for the win. 4/5 Great match with a nice mix of styles, Christian and Benjamin’s high risk v. Roundtable’s ground and pound offense. I really enjoyed the match and just making me more excited for the Christian v. Benjamin match at TLC.

Match Recap

1. William Regal pinned by Goldust 3.25/5
2. Trent Barreta & Caylen Croft beat Tyler Hilton & Bobby Shields 2.5/5
3. Christian & Shelton Benjamin over Ruthless Roundtable 4/5

Yet another great show from ECW after a pathetically sad RAW. ECW improves by leaps and bounds each week and it seems a shame to kill the brand, but hopefully whatever they put on continues to have great matches like we get here. Is it just me or is Tiffany just improving on her abilities each week too, she doesn’t get much camera time, but I don’t think the GM/host should. The show should be about the in ring action, which is what ECW and Superstars does, even the Abe Washington show is usually funny and Tony Atlas is so over top that he makes it enjoyable. Well, I’m working on my first non recap column and I think it’s going to be a good one. Stay tuned true believers as hopefully tomorrow I should be able to get Superstars.

WWE ECW on SYFY November 24, 2009

Well, here we go with my first ECW recap. The show affectionately referred to as the D-Show. I personally find ECW to be the more exciting show, after all they do have the better talent base, Christian, Shelton Benjamin, William Regal, and Vance Archer…well maybe not Vance but at least there is no D-X, Batista or Undertaker to ruin the show. With this show I’m going to start using my own star ratings, I rate matches based on how much I like the guys/girls involved, crown reaction and if it can keep my interest. Curious who they have to replace Lauren as the ring announcer, to bad she left I was just starting to like her. On with the show as they say.

ECW still has the better opening theme song, I don’t care for either Smackdown or RAW’s new songs. Abraham Washington Show with Matt Hardy is the main event, really? Cool, we open with one of my favorites Zack Ryder and the always hot Rosa Mendes. So, Tony Chimel is doing the ring announcing for ECW, at least it’s not the Bella Twins. Recap time as they cover one of the better feuds right now Shelton Benjamin, the most underrated man in wrestling, and Zack. Which obviously brings out Shelton Benjamin, this should be a great match.

1. Shelton Benjamin v. Zack Ryder. Shelton really starting out strong here, as Rosa is sitting ringside. You have to love Shelton pulling Zack in front of Rosa to pound on him, but that costs Shelton as Zack now has an advantage. Shelton counters an Irish whip with one of the best belly to belly suplexes since the days of Magnum T.A. If Shelton wins, he’s the number one contender, well better than Regal v. Christian again. Come back from commercial and Zach has the advantage thanks to Rosa’s distraction. I love when the announcers talk about Twitter, that’s great. Zack gets a two count of a second rope splash, so far a great match. Damn, Zach slows it down with a leg scissor; at least it was only for about 30 seconds. Zack goes up top, gives the LI sign, and hits a nice Superfly Splash, but once again only a two count. Impressed with the crowd getting into the match. Shelton does his own version of Hulking up, and hits the corner splash, followed by a picture perfect German Suplex for two. Shelton hits the Paydirt for the finish, much to the dismay of Rosa. Shelton is now the number one contender that should be a great match. **** stars, was a great match between two of the most underrated stars in the WWE right now. Christian’s music hits, and out comes the champion.
2. Christian in the ring after the commercial, Shelton is still there as well. Christian hypes up the PPV in 3 weeks, TLC. Can ECW actually get on the PPV for once, just as I type it Christian says the ECW title has been overlooked? No really! Christian challenges Shelton to a ladder match now that is going to be awesome. Much better then Sheamus v. John Cena in a table match. Christian says they’re going to steal the show, and Shelton agrees as do I.
3. Vance Archer v. Alex Reynolds. Alright vintage 80’s squash match! Vance quickly just powers the kid down and is laying a beating on him. Vance hits a rest hold only in minute in; the man has stamina like Scott Steiner. I still say Vance should’ve come out dressed as Robin Hood with bow and arrow and merry men. Vance with a flip over reverse DDT and the win. Well that was quick and painless at least and it gave Archer another chance to show what he has, not a lot. * star, what more can you give a squash that included a rest hold? I still look forward to seeing Archer in there with a name.
4. Time for the man with the greatest laugh in wrestling Tony Atlas, who introduces Abraham Washington or Abe as he called him. Tony is the true star of these segments; he just looks like he’s having so much fun. You got to love all the shrill shrieks for the mention of Twilight! Well, that was a long way to go to get to a really lame joke. The crowd pops, as always, for Matt Hardy, the better half of the Hardy team. Abraham Washington mentions he wishes Matt was Jeff, Matt says I wish you were Conan, Tony agrees! Matt is on here to hype up he’s on some show called Scare Tactics, not a clue what that is, but whatever. Oh, well here comes the clip, well that looked stupid, about as lame as Punk’d. Abraham says nothing scares him as Tony sneaks up behind him and now Abraham needs a Laundromat. That may have been the best part of the skit; sadly Matt says the same thing. Sometimes I swear I should be booking this stuff. Abraham says we’re out of time and leaves, Matt shows Tony how to do the Version One.
5. Yoshi Tatsu v. William Regal. William Regal comes out with Ezekiel and Vladimir. Should be an interesting match between the young up and comer and the veteran. Both men exchange European Uppercuts, with Yoshi getting the advantage, kicking Regal to the corner. Regal reverses an Irish whip with a vicious clothesline. Vladimir pushes Yoshi off the ropes; Yoshi hits the roundhouse kick and scores the upset victory! Yoshi gets out the ring quickly as the Roundtable enter the ring. Regal gets up slowly as Ezekiel and Vladimir stand over him. Regal gets in the face of Ezekiel and Vladimir, big mistake. Vladimir blames Ezekiel, who pushes Kozlov’s hand down and hits the uranague. Regal tries to calm down Jackson, who’s not having any of that. Regal turns away from the big man, who just calmly steps over Kozlov, and hits an uranague on Regal now. I guess we can call that Jackson’s face turn now? Great does this mean Jackson v. Kozlov next week; I don’t want to see that? As for the match itself, **½ stars, was a little too quick but what we got was good. The end superseded the match itself though.

All in all not a bad show tonight. Zack and Shelton just tore up the show and nothing else was going to compare but the stuff involving Matt and Tony was hilarious. I’m looking forward to Shelton and Christian at The TLC PPV coming up, that is going to be a great match.

This past week was much less eventful than the previous week. But in this case, that was a good thing. As a matter of fact, God has blessed me in so many ways since my accident that I cannot even count them all. It is amazing how in the face of adversity, pain, and struggle God will reveal himself to you and provide comfort and blessings in abundance. You just have to remain faithful, prayerful, and thankful. Our God loves us. In the trials of life that becomes hard to believe sometimes. But I stand as living proof that our God exists as do many of my friends and family around me.

• I received several calls from the V.P. of sales for my company reaching out to me and making sure I took the time I need to recover fully, both physically and mentally from my truck accident on September 16th. It is hard for me to do, but I have been making my self listen to him and doing my best to heal.
• Went to an outstanding church service in Zephyrhills at “My New Walk” church. They were celebrating their 3 year anniversary. I was amazed to find out that they have an average attendance of 700 people per weekend through 3 services with the majority being first and second service attenders. They also have over 200 volunteers working there each weekend. That’s unbelievable! The pastor announced that they are starting a campaign to build a new facility and move out of the YMCA. At first I grimaced, but in my heart know that they are doing the right things at this church and it will succeed.
• I am meeting Pastor Gary on Tuesday for lunch to see where I fit in the ministry at New Walk. I just want to advise and lend my talents where they are needed, not where I need them.
• Spent an awesome time with my wife on Friday going to Jacksonville. We bought a new truck (new to me). 2006 Expedition Limited. My daughter says it is “Pimped out”! We stayed over Friday night and drove back Saturday. It felt good to have some alone time in a vehicle. First time I have driven very far since my accident.
• Awesome unexpected surprise! unexpected because in all the shuffle of the last couple of weeks I had forgotten that I had offered Matt Brouwer a place to stay when he was in town doing business. It was great though. He is always welcome in my home at any time. When I met Matt last year I felt a connection with him. Matt is very much a “what you see is what you get” person and that is very hard to find in the music business. That is why I have felt so led to support him and his music ministry any way I can. www.mattbrouwer.com
• Got to share some great pool time this weekend at our friends, Kristi and Steve. They are good people and our friendship continues to flourish. We attend church together and have spent a lot of Sunday afternoons hanging out at the pool and relaxing. I am very blessed to have them in my life.
• Got quite a bit of music work done on my “Restoration Project”. It started out being something for me to give my Grandma for a gift. Now it is more about an outlet of Worshiping God for me. I have had this little 8 track digital recorder for over a year and have done basically nothing with it. Now I am probably doing the most important music project of my life and learning how to use it all at the same time. Shame on me! Anyway, I’m not looking for a music career anymore. Just want to do something that is pleasing to the Lord.

Il digiuno può salvarvi la vita

Marcello Pamio – 18 giugno 2009

Prima di spiegare cos’è il digiuno e perché è importante, è necessario comprendere cos’è la malattia.
A tal proposito e per completezza, vi invito a leggere l’articolo “La malattia: amica o nemica?” del dottor Sebastiano Magnano.
In estrema sintesi, dal punto di vista igienistico, il “sintomo” (ufficialmente chiamato “malattia”) è il tentativo ultimo della Natura, cioè dell’organismo, di eliminare tutte le tossine (alimentari, metaboliche, emozionali, ecc.) che hanno inquinato il corpo.

Il costante avvelenamento
Le tossine entrano nella circolazione sanguigna principalmente attraverso:
1)      Tossiemia esogena, cioè esterna, provocata da alimenti nocivi (combinazioni errate, fermentazioni, putrefazioni intestinali) o sostanze estranee all’organismo (microbi, batteri, ecc.)
2)      Tossiemia endogena, cioè interna, di origine cellulare per la ritenzione di metaboliti. In ogni momento i tessuti (cellule, ecc.) vengono distrutti nel processo chiamato “catabolismo”. Questi sono rifiuti tossici che devono essere espulsi quanto prima dal corpo.

L’avvelenamento, sia per opera di cibi tossici e/o combinazioni errate, sia nel caso dei tessuti distrutti, in un organismo sano, forte e in buona salute, viene ridotto ed eliminato dal sangue rapidamente. Quando invece l’energia nervosa non è sufficiente, il sistema di eliminazione non funziona correttamente provocando la ritenzione delle tossine e la costante intossicazione del sangue e dei tessuti. Nel momento in cui tale intossicazione supera una soglia di tolleranza, scatta immediatamente la malattia.

L’energia nervosa
Il troppo freddo o caldo, le preoccupazioni, i traumi, la digestione appesantita, gli sforzi mentali e fisici, la paura, gli eccessi emozionali, la rabbia, il non riposo, ecc. sono tutte condizioni che a lungo andare snervano l’essere umano e disperdono l’energia corporea.
Quando l’energia individuale si abbassa e raggiunge un certo livello (unico ed individuale per ogni persona), viene ritardata l’eliminazione delle tossine, dei rifiuti tossici, con conseguente deposito di scorie e tossine che causano autoavvelenamento.
La zona o l’organo dove avviene il maggior deposito di scorie dipende da persona a persona, dipende dalla costituzione, da eventuali predisposizioni (non certo genetiche, ma epigenetiche, quindi ambientali), dalla zona a “minor resistenza”, ecc.
Qualcuno potrà vedere interessate le articolazioni (artrosi, reumatismi, gotta, ecc.), qualcun altro un organo specifico (fegato –> cirrosi, polmoni –> polmonite, reni –> nefrite, stomaco –> gastrite, arterie –> ipertensione), ecc.

Malattia e sintomo
Nonostante queste differenze di locazione il concetto di malattia non cambia: si tratta sempre di una “eliminazione vicariante” operata dal corpo per espellere le tossine e diminuire la pericolosa saturazione tossica.
Sembrerà strano, ma tutti i fattori esterni a noi (freddo, caldo, microbi, virus, batteri, alimenti, ecc.) non possono causare di per sé la malattia, a meno che non provochino snervamento e indebolimento dell’energia vitale, la cui conseguenza è il ritardo nella espulsione delle tossine.
Se e solo se, il sangue si satura di tossine, interviene “l’eliminazione vicariante” detta malattia (o sintomo)!
Quindi in quest’ottica, la malattia altro non è che la Natura stessa che interviene di prepotenza, per liberare il carico tossico dal corpo, e segnalarci che siamo usciti dai binari di una vita sana e naturale.
Il nostro stile di vita globale (alimentazione, mondo dei sentimenti, mondo dei pensieri, le cose che diciamo e come le diciamo, ecc.) viene messo in discussione. Sta a noi comprenderlo e accettarlo, oppure possiamo sempre girare la testa dall’altra parte e prendere la medicina, il prodotto naturale, il farmaco omeopatico, ecc.
Tutte cose che nel bene (medicine naturali) e nel male (farmaci tossici) interferiscono con il meccanismo messo in atto dalla Natura.

STRESS AMBIENTALE – ABITUDINI QUOTIDIANE ERRATE

TRAUMI (FISICI-MENTALI-EMOZIONALI)

INDEBOLIMENTO

ELIMINAZIONE INSUFFICIENTE E RITENZIONE DI TOSSINE

TOSSIEMIA

MALATTIA
Irritazione > Infiammazione > Indurimento > Ulcerazione > Fungosità (cancro)

Qui sopra, dal diagramma codificato dal dottor J.H. Tilden (1851-1940) che esemplifica l’andamento della malattia, si può evincere che la malattia viene sempre dopo una tossiemia generalizzata, e la tossiemia viene sempre dopo un indebolimento energetico causato dallo stile di vita errato (alimenti tossici come le proteine animali, le combinazioni errate, una vita sregolata, poco riposo, ecc.)
Se tutto parte da un indebolimento generale e generalizzato, è logico che il riposo (mentale, fisico, emozionale) è basilare, e infatti in quest’ottica il digiuno è uno degli strumenti chiave.

Virus e batteri
Che ruolo hanno in tutto questo i batteri e virus? Sono esseri così tremendi da dover combattere con ogni strumento?
In questa visione, non sono certo da demonizzare, visto che il nostro corpo è praticamente colonizzato da miliardi di microrganismi, per non parlare dei virus (informazione ricoperta da una proteina) che sono all’ordine del giorno.
Nonostante quello che viene insegnato nelle scuole di medicina, i pericoli non arrivano dall’esterno se il corpo è sano e forte. Un qualsiasi organismo in perfetta salute “resiste” a qualsiasi “entità estranea”, mentre un corpo malato, indebolito da pratiche debilitanti (stress, traumi, alimentazione, ecc.) soccombe a qualsiasi cosa.
I microbi sono dei saprofiti, vale a dire che si nutrono delle materie organiche morte o morenti. In questa maniera se i tessuti si trovano in uno stato tossiemico tale da necessitare una pulizia, allora agiscono positivamente in favore della salute.
Se i tessuti sono sani, ossigenati e nutriti correttamente, il corpo ha numerosi sistemi (pelle, mucose, secrezioni battericide, globuli bianchi, proteine, fegato, milza, linfociti, ecc.) per distruggere i microrganismi che accidentalmente arrivano dall’esterno (cibo, acqua, respirazione, ferite, ecc.).
I microrganismi interni, quindi, vengono “attivati” e/o “disattivati” dal nostro terreno biologico e fungono da veri e propri “spazzini” che aiutano a “pulire” il corpo in determinate situazioni patologiche. Gli antibiotici (“anti-bios” = contro la vita, contro la Natura) per esempio, distruggono tutte le forme di vita, impedendo ai microbi di lavorare e alla Guarigione di manifestarsi.

Cos’è il digiuno?
Diciamo subito che il digiuno non è una cura e nemmeno una terapia: è “semplicemente” il riposo fisiologico dell’organismo!
Parlare di “digiuno-terapia”, in termini odierni, non sarebbe molto corretto, a meno ché non s’intenda per terapia il complesso processo di autoguarigione (che però vedremo tra poco).

L’economica della Natura
La Natura si sa, non spreca nulla.
L’organismo umano normale è fornito di una scorta di materiali nutritivi messi da parte sotto forma di grasso, midollo osseo, glicogeno, estratti muscolari, latte, minerali, vitamine, ecc.
Sembrerà impossibile, ma un corpo in buona salute possiede immagazzinata una scorta nutritiva appropriata e sufficiente per superare giorni, settimane e anche alcuni mesi senza cibo.
Se non ci si alimenta, il corpo si avvale di queste riserve per nutrire i tessuti, e quando queste si esauriscono sopravviene il vero e proprio dimagrimento.
Nel sangue, linfa, ossa, specialmente nel midollo osseo, nel grasso, nel fegato e nelle altre ghiandole, persino nelle cellule vi sono riserve di proteine, grassi, zuccheri, minerali e vitamine da utilizzare nei momenti di scarsezza.
Quindi l’organismo a digiuno non verrà danneggiato dall’astinenza se e solo se le riserve saranno sufficienti a soddisfare i bisogni nutritivi dei tessuti e/o organi primari (cervello, polmoni, cuore, sistema nervoso, ecc.).

Per esempio, il glicogeno (amido animale), immagazzinato nel fegato, a bisogno viene trasformato in zucchero e distribuito ai tessuti a seconda le necessità.
Migliaia di esperimenti su persone hanno stabilito che durante il digiuno i tessuti si consumano in ordine inverso alla loro importanza: il grasso è il primo tessuto a scomparire (scompare il grasso dai muscoli, ma il muscolo mantiene la sua integrità ed una forza sorprendente).
Certamente l’organismo a digiuno cala di peso, ma tale perdita, anche se per un periodo prolungato, coinvolge le riserve e non i tessuti organici.
Infine, la perdita di peso varia a seconda del carattere e della qualità dei tessuti, dell’attività fisica ed emotiva svolta, della temperatura esterna, ecc.
Gli stress emotivi, l’attività fisica, il freddo e i tessuti scadenti accelerano il processo del calo di peso.
La regola importante è “in salute o in malattia, mai forzare del cibo nello stomaco”

Nelle malattie acute
Nelle malattie acute (infiammazioni, dolori, febbre, ecc.) la fame non si presenta perché le energie devono essere indirizzate verso altre direzioni piuttosto che “sprecate” per la digestione.
L’energia viene deviata dagli organi digestivi verso il lavoro più urgente, e anche il sangue fa la stessa cosa: viene dirottato verso quelle zone che ne richiedono in quantità.
Vi è assenza di succhi gastrici e le pareti del sistema digestivo secernono muco in quantità; i movimenti muscolari dello stomaco vengono sospesi e viene quindi meno la capacità di digerire il cibo.
Non si deve mangiare durante una crisi acuta, sia perché non si digerirebbe correttamente provocando fermentazioni e/o putrefazioni, ma anche perché il digiuno allevia il dolore e alleggerisce il carico di organi come reni e cuore.
Negli stati febbrili, i medici napoletani di 150 anni fa, facevano digiunare! Oggi? Il medico prescrive tachipirina, novalgina, aspirina, e altri veleni tossici per l’organismo.
Saltare qualche pasto, quando si presentano i primi sintomi, spesso è sufficiente a prevenire lo sviluppo di malattie più serie.

Nelle malattie croniche
Nelle malattie croniche una persona tende a credere di aver fame, ma le sue sensazioni sono solo irritazioni del tratto digestivo. Questi sintomi scompaiono quando si digiuna.
Durante il digiuno si accelerano i processi escretori che liberano velocemente il corpo dalle scorie e tossine che sono causa del disturbo
Nell’anemia e nel diabete, non si può intraprendere il digiuno da soli, ma serve la guida di un esperto igienista

Quattro buone ragioni per digiunare

1- Dimagrimento. Il digiuno è la strada più veloce, sicura ed efficiente per dimagrire.

2- Compensazione fisiologica. Quando si deve digerire un cibo una grande quantità di sangue deve affluire agli organi digestivi e l’organismo conseguentemente tende ad essere pigro, ad addormentarsi. Se si svolge un lavoro pesante, il processo digestivo è praticamente sospeso. Digiunare, conservando le energie digestive, permette di deviarle verso altri canali e quindi di svolgere altri lavori.

3- Riposo fisiologico. Il digiuno permette il riposo del sistema digestivo, ghiandolare, circolatorio, respiratorio, nervoso. Più cibo viene ingerito, maggiore è il lavoro che deve essere svolto dagli organi che formano tali sistemi; in presenza di un digiuno questi organi si riposano. Le ghiandole della bocca e dello stomaco, il tubo digestivo, il fegato e il pancreas non devono lavorare. Il cuore, le arterie si alleggeriscono e riposano. Le ghiandole, all’infuori di quelle che scernono succhi digestivi, riducono la loro attività secretrice. La respirazione rallenta e il sistema nervoso lavora di meno.

4- Eliminazione. Il dottor J. H. Tilden: “Dopo 55 anni trascorsi nel selvaggio mondo delle terapie mediche, sono costretto a dichiarare, senza paura di essere smentito, che il digiuno rappresenta l’unico evacuatore terapeutico sicuro per l’uomo”

Il dottor Felix L. Oswald: “Il digiuno rappresenta il migliore sistema rinnovatore. Tre giorni di digiuno all’anno purificano il sangue ed eliminano i veleni più efficacemente di cento bottiglie di soluzioni purgative”.
Non esiste niente altro che al pari del digiuno che sia in grado di aumentare l’eliminazione delle sostanze di rifiuto dal sangue e dai tessuti.
Le secrezioni represse o i rifiuti trattenuti vengono espulsi dall’organismo ed il sistema risulta purificato. Servono pochi giorni per liberare il sangue e la linfa dalle tossine, ma il digiuno prosegue nella sua azione e provoca l’espulsione delle tossine che da molto tempo erano depositate nei tessuti meno importanti (grasso, organi, ecc.)
Il digiuno costringe il corpo a consumare (autolisi) tutti i tessuti superflui e le scorte nutritive utilizzandole per sostenere i tessuti principali. In questo senso le tossine immesse in circolazione potranno essere espulse dagli organi escretori.

L’escrezione
L’escrezione è una delle funzioni fondamentali della vita ed è essenziale per l’esistenza stessa. L’organismo per mantenersi in vita deve: ASSIMILARE, CRESCERE, ESCRETARE
Abbiamo visto prima che vi è un continuo sforzo da parte dell’organismo di espellere le tossine accumulate, i rifiuti organici e inorganici (metabolismo: anabolismo e catabolismo).
Tutto quello che il corpo non può utilizzare come cibo deve essere espulso dal corpo.
Le energie dell’uomo sono divise sempre tra ASSIMILAZIONE ed ELIMINAZIONE.
Durante il digiuno (sospensione dell’alimentazione) l’eliminazione degli scarti, delle tossine raggiunge livelli unici.
Il riposo da solo aumenta l’eliminazione, anche se non agli stessi livelli.

Tutto ciò che diminuisce il lavoro dell’organismo aumenta quello dell’eliminazione

Forza ed energia durante il digiuno
Per quanto paradossale possa apparire, le persone deboli traggono i maggiori benefici da periodi di astinenza dal cibo, anche perché, la debolezza di solito, non è dovuta a mancanza di cibo ma ad una condizione di intossicazione dell’organismo e da una cattiva assimilazione.

Il digiuno può curare?
Il termine “cura” deriva dal latino che significava “attenzione”, “cautela”.
Oggi ovviamente ha un altro significato.
Il digiuno non “cura” nulla: è un periodo di riposo fisiologico, l’interruzione di ogni fatica.
Il riposo fornisce all’organismo l’opportunità di fare da solo quello che non riesce a fare in completa attività.

Solo quando le cause vengono eliminate e/o bloccate, il corpo, DA SOLO, può iniziare a guarire. Rimuovere le cause NON significa guarire, significa rendere possibile che i processi ristoratori, rigeneratori, perfezionino il loro operato.
Questo operato si chiama AUTOGUARIGIONE

Guarire, a differenza di curare, è un processo biologico, NON è un’arte.
Un chirurgo può cucire una ferita ma non può guarirla, può mettere insieme le estremità di un osso rotto ma non può unire o saldare le due parti. SOLO l’organismo può fare questo.

Guarire è un processo naturale

Ogni GUARIGIONE è in realtà solo AUTOGUARIGIONE e per tanto il digiuno non è una cura.
In quanto riposo fisiologico, il digiuno permette all’organismo di autoguarirsi, fornendo al corpo l’opportunità di lavorare con meno sforzi.

Alcune cosa da sapere nel digiuno
1- Quando si inizia a digiunare quasi inevitabilmente si presentano sviluppi fisici che non devono allarmare: lingua bianca, bocca e alito cattivo, denti impastati, mal di testa, ecc.
Sono tutte condizioni che rappresentano il processo purificatore. Appena il corpo scarica il suo fardello tossico, inizia il processo di purificazione della lingua, prima la punta e poi sui lati e alla fine bocca e lingua puliti.
2- L’urina può diventare scura, quasi nera, dall’odore forte, anche se si beve solo acqua. Indice del lavoro renale di eliminazione.
3- La perdita di peso è dovuta all’utilizzazione delle riserve organiche
4- La debolezza è dovuta all’inattività funzionale. Si è molto rilassati, il cuore e la respirazione rallenta, la circolazione si calma. La debolezza iniziale è dovuta all’assenza della “solita stimolazione”: caffè, ecc.
5- L’aspetto più noioso forse è rappresentato da nausee e vomito, che però sono importanti crisi purificatorie.
6- Il riposo (fisico e mentale) è fondamentale.
7- L’esercizio fisico all’aria aperta moderato è molto importante
8- Il raffreddamento inibisce l’eliminazione, per cui bisogna stare al caldo.
9- Bere acqua fresca pura, non fredda.
10- I bagni di sole sono un fattore nutritivo di grande aiuto nel digiuno, basta non abusarne.
11- Niente purganti durante il digiuno

L’interruzione del digiuno
Il momento ideale per interrompere il digiuno è quando si manifesta il ritorno della fame.
La lingua è pulita e l’alito è sano.
L’interruzione e la ripresa alimentare è fondamentale per non vanificare il tutto.
Si può riprendere mangiando cibi leggeri come frutta e verdure. Tre pasti al giorno, semplici e non ricchi, formati da cibi freschi.
