I received private feedback about the blog article on RBTI retreats.  Some described total satisfaction.  Some wanted to substitute other ways for the known particulars of certain retreats. And, yes, some total dissatisfaction was reported.

I do not think that any retreat will ever do EVERYTHING exactly as Reams would have wanted it done, but there is the old story about him getting tears of joy in his eyes when he visited the resort that Elinor Barnes worked in up Massachusetts way.  Perhaps if we move away from wanting to see 100% Reams and think more in terms of a passing grade we will see existing retreats flourish and new retreats spring up. Good retreats certainly are needed.

The evaluation form I am working on is intended to allow any retreat client to give the rest of us valuable feedback so that we can make better choices. Although it is not programmed on a 1-5 star (5 maximum) concept, those who have chosen which book they may or may not care to read by looking over the Amazon reviews will understand.

Retreat stay reviews from clients can be as valuable to the retreats as it is to prospective clients.  The retreat operator who does not notice that they are getting bad reviews and make necessary changes is short-sighted.

You can click this link if you wish to participate in the design.  The completed survey will be offered to all.

Over the years as moderator of the RBTI forum I have had many, many requests from desperately ill people who are looking for a Reams-retreat. While I am reasonably confident that there are many "private" retreats where a consultant takes a client under their wing, I only know of three that openly speak of their ability to offer the full RBTI program to all comers.

Before naming them, I should explain my understanding of the RBTI program and how I personally would expect to be treated.  Obviously, I would want to be frequently tested and fasted if appropriate.  I would want my urea determined and kept in the rebuilding range.  If I were diabetic, I would expect even more frequent testing so as to avoid the possibility of diabetic coma should my body release stored insulin too quickly.

Not only would I expect a wide variety of foods at meals, I would expect them to be slanted such that I personally got more of the calcium types I might be deficient in and less of the calcium types I was overloaded with. Also, whether diabetic or not, I would like green drink a couple of times each day with the hope that my pancreas would continue to strengthen.  If supplements beyond MinCol and Algavim were required in addition to diet, I would expect serious understanding by the dispenser as far as type or quantity and I would anticipate automatic Vitamin C if my urine were alkaline or Vitamin D should it be acidic.

Let there be no doubt that I would expect my water and my lemon water on a rigorous schedule exactly like I would expect scheduled medicines were I in a hospital.  So few people fully understand the powerful qualities of washing away deleterious cell waste and many certainly don't comprehend just how effective fresh lemon juice is in scouring out or digesting nasty things in dark corners of the body.  And, yes, if my urine Brix couldn't seem to settle into the proper range, I would appreciate the proper amount of rotated added sugars.

As a clean colon is important to RBTI, I would love for any retreat to not only be able to arrange or direct me to such service while a guest, but to actually insist I start with either a local professional or home self-service before reporting for my stay.

There is no need to mention quiet peaceful sleeping quarters or a just as quiet and peaceful daytime meeting area where the consultant could talk to me about how well my numbers were holding or improving.  There would be no reason to talk about my rapidly disappearing disease(s) as RBTI is not about that, or diagnosis, or doctoring.  Instead, I would like the consultant to talk at length about how God created my body perfect and that I can expect it to remain perfect if I simply "go by the numbers." And if my numbers did not remain in the healing range with the above care, I would expect my consultant to quietly but firmly urge me to look within my soul for unclean spiritual matters that might be restricting the flow of my life juices.  Actually, on second thought, I would appreciate my consultant reviewing my spiritual state every time we met.

Finally, once the consultant really knew me and realized that my numbers showed I was no exception to the RBTI standard, I would want them to review my ways and habits in my work-a-day life so they could identify those things I might improve to stay in the healing range upon return to home.

Currently, there are three retreats where I think a client might get the care discussed above (and more).  In no particular order they are:

• Home For Health in Kentucky 
  
• Christian Health Education Ministry in Tennessee 
  
• Promise Outreach in Wisconsin

Carey Reams restored a lot of cancer patients to health without drugs, radiation, or surgery.  What is not recorded is the percentage of those cases that were breast cancer.  I've often wondered how his theories might address today's exploding epidemic.  Those who have studied RBTI know his thoughts about "new cell, wearing out cell, dead cell."  They understand that the body must break down the dead cells or remove them unless we want cancer in our lives. So we have solid cell debris fragments that must flush out and we have dissolved cell-remains urea that must be similarly washed away.  It causes me to reflect that even though Reams never said a word against bras, I would have to be dense to not understand that the devices put his healing methods at severe disadvantage.  Even the beginning farmer knows that if you inhibit drainage, the swamp builds and cattails flourish---cattails being a stand-in for the radiation/chemo/surgery crowd waiting for your money.

A new article on the "bras cause cancer" theme...

Carey Reams in a class: If you eat enough health foods, and do everything they tell you to, or try to do everything they tell you to do, you might starve to death, because every one of them is down on something different.  So go by your numbers.  Forget your fads.


Pick a date.  Examine the literature coming to you in either your mailbox, your email, or even a book you picked up. "This heals that!"  "That heals this!" "Yoko juice stops cancer!"  "BumBum berries cure lumbago!"


It never stops.  Some say it increases by the day. Reams refused to go there.  His students refuse to go there. Perhaps the whole story can be told in this short excerpt from Choose Life Or Death...

I am often asked, ―Is this food or that food good for you?‖ Many times people think I just do not want to tell them. They ask the RBTI testers if this or that food is good or bad for them, and the testers give the same answer: ―I do not know whether it is good or bad for you because we do not have scientific facts to back up our answers. Until we have the RBTI test made we do not know whether something is good or bad for anyone...


Human nature being what it is, we probably will never be able to completely shake our fads---but we can try.  We can have our "Sure," or "Right," at the ready when friends or family try to earnestly, oh so earnestly, get us to understand the value of this miracle food or that miracle juice, or perhaps even a miracle powder or two.  And then we can quietly go by the numbers. We can be less faddish and more scientific. It is a better way.

I have often noticed that people find many reasons to avoid the lemon that Reams so clearly thought vital to proper RBTI.  Aside from the fact that some are too cheap to buy them, many people have claimed an "allergy".  Why they cannot understand that Reams found lemon juice integral to RBTI because the liver could so easily convert it to enzymes, mainly digestive, is beyond me.  As Challen Waychoff has said, "The lemon is a must."  Anyway, you may enjoy this use-more-lemon story just as it came to me.  No, I know nothing about chemotherapy and whether the lemon acts that way.

Amazing frozen lemons 
All it is.....is a frozen lemon 
 
Many professionals in restaurants and eateries are using or consuming the entire lemon and nothing is wasted. How can you use the whole lemon without waste? 
 
Simple.. place the washed lemon in the freezer section of your refrigerator. Once the lemon is frozen, get your grater, and shred the whole lemon (no need to peel it) and sprinkle it on top of your foods.
 
Sprinkle it to your vegetable salad, ice cream, soup, cereals, noodles, spaghetti sauce, rice, sushi, fish dishes, whisky.... the list is endless. 
 
All of the foods will unexpectedly have a wonderful taste, something that you may have never tasted before.  Most likely, you only think of lemon juice and vitamin C. Not anymore.
 
Now that you've learned this lemon secret, you can use lemon even in instant cup noodles. 
 
What's the major advantage of using the whole lemon other than preventing waste and adding new taste to your dishes? 

Well, you see lemon peels contain as much as 5 to 10 times more vitamins than the lemon juice itself.  And yes, that's what you've been wasting. 
 
But from now on, by following this simple procedure of freezing the whole lemon, then grating it on top of your dishes, you can consume all of those nutrients and get even healthier.
 
It's also good that lemon peels are health rejuvenators in eradicating toxic elements in the body. 
 
So place your washed lemon in your freezer, and then grate it on your meal every day. It is a key to make your foods tastier and you get to live healthier and longer! That's the lemon secret! Better late than never, right? The surprising benefits of lemon! 

Lemon is a miraculous product to kill cancer cells. It is 10,000 times stronger than chemotherapy.
 
Why do we not know about that? Because there are laboratories interested in making a synthetic version that will bring them huge profits. 
 
You can now help a friend in need by letting him/her know that lemon juice is beneficial in preventing the disease. Its taste is pleasant and it does not produce the horrific effects of chemotherapy.
 
How many people will die while this closely guarded secret is kept, so as not to jeopardize the beneficial multimillionaires large corporations? 
 
As you know, the lemon tree is known for its varieties of lemons and limes.
 
You can eat the fruit in different ways: you can eat the pulp, juice press, prepare drinks, sorbets, pastries, etc... It is credited with many virtues, but the most interesting is the effect it produces on cysts and tumors. 
 
This plant is a proven remedy against cancers of all types. Some say it is very useful in all variants of cancer. It is considered also as an anti microbial spectrum against bacterial infections and fungi, effective against internal parasites and worms, it regulates blood pressure which is too high and an antidepressant, combats stress and nervous disorders. 
The source of this information is fascinating: it comes from one of the largest drug manufacturers in the world, says that after more than 20 laboratory tests since 1970, the extracts revealed that It destroys the malignant cells in 12 cancers, including colon, breast, prostate, lung and pancreas... 
The compounds of this tree showed 10,000 times better than the product Adriamycin, a drug normally used chemotherapeutic in the world, slowing the growth of cancer cells.
 
And what is even more astonishing: this type of therapy with lemon extract only destroys malignant cancer cells and it does not affect healthy cells. 

So, give those lemons a good wash, freeze them and grate them. Your whole body will love you for it!!!!! 

Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly. 

When people apply to join the RBTI group they are encouraged to say a few words as to why they are interested.  Those who have been there for years should take a moment to study the responses as they might see something they can help with.  I know that we rarely see a long time member jump up to offer help and I've always assumed that is because they have not yet built their reserve energy up to a very high level.  Some (dare I say many?) people here are still on drugs and their battered bodies (or energy levels) simply do have the wherewithal to help others struggle.  Others may have never felt good a single day of their lives and helping has never been a part of what they do.  Others are just shy and find the ordinary (and normal) back & forth dissecting of fresh ideas a bit threatening to their egos.  Although the forum is not a classroom, I picture them as never raising their hands.  That may be more comfortable, but that is hardly a way to get their most sincere questions answered.

Anyway, it is important that we welcome the newcomers and help them get a basic idea of "what we do."  The basic intent of the newsgroup is to study, research, and report on the work of Carey Reams.  Reams taught over and over and over that all disease is mineral deficiency and not a shortage of drugs.  Reams was astute enough to know that medical doctors are trained to push drugs of all sorts, so he tried to avoid getting in the path of that juggernaut.  Instead he advised people to eat a very wide variety of foods, drink enough water to wash out waste products, and take mineral supplements to close the gaps in their nutrition.  He adapted simple chemical analysis developed for testing soils and instructed people how they could rebuild the "soil of their life," not just physically, but mentally and spiritually as well.  

Here are a few resources that have proven useful in the past.
1. Thomas Giannou's transcription of a class that Reams taught using Dr. John Black as an assistant
2. The Brixman.com website devoted to all aspects of Reams' work
3. And, of course, everyone should read Reams' book "Choose Life Or Death" (CLOD).  The most inexpensive place I have found to get a copy is from Pike Agri.  The horribly overpriced versions that show on Ebay are an aberration.
4. Finally, the archives of the forum are a gold mine of information.  Often you will find hundreds of prior posts concerning something that seems entirely new to you.
