Carey Reams had his own ideas about cancer.  Reaching back to the days when apples were stored in barrels for the winter, he likened cancer cells, dead cells, to rotten apples. Just as a rotten apple could start rot in adjacent apples, he visualized dead cells not promptly removed from the body as causing "rot" in adjacent cells pressed hard against them.

Apparently the cancer answer, in Reams' view, is to be sure the body has abundant minerals it needs to build fresh cells even as old dead cells are being flushed away with distilled water, augmented with the scouring power of lemon juice.

How simple...and how different from the drug-company mentality taking root in government offices.  There is a push---driven by profit---to prescribe cancer drugs to you and I even though we are cancer-free. 

Carey Reams had a few choice words in Choose Life Or Death (page 53): "The Reams Biological Theory of Ionization is the practice of health through diet. The practice of medicine is the practice of illness through drugs and surgery."

Have you ever noticed that people are so brainwashed with current drug-think that they view mineral supplements as drugs?  In other words, they may have a complaint or "symptom" and they look through the various minerals seeking a magic pill to "cure" their "symptom."

I observe exactly that and I see it a lot.  People are so swept up into the idea that drugs "do something" that they cannot see the forest because of all the trees in their way.

Most folks who venture into our little internet corner are ailing and also wary of the drugging scene.  Only a few will understand right off the bat that all disease is some form of mineral deficiency. Actually, they have had it hammered into their heads that sickness is a DRUG deficiency. We are talking quite a leap and I'm never surprised when a couple of people quickly bail out because the chasm is just too vast.

More than likely, our new visitors have a lifetime of being taught that all food is the same and that what you or I eat doesn't have anything to do with one's health.  Although some have abandoned the drug scene (legal or illegal) because of the harm they have witnessed and the dependency they wish to avoid, a few will only rise to the level where they start thinking that this or that "secret" fruit cures this or that disease and some "rare" juice is the remedy for arthritis---or whatever. In other words, they will climb out of the void---but only so far.

No one will force feed them anything here, but they do now stand a chance of learning, starting with the idea that worn out soil with scarce minerals produces food of nutritional nothingness and that there are several ways out of the wilderness.  One, actually the best, is to grow or find food of superior nutrition---the foods that their ancestors took for granted.  Trust those of us who have been here a while.  That is one tough task.


An alternate path is what RBTI is all about.  If you decide to walk our straight and narrow way, you will learn that you gain most of the benefit of superior high Brix foods by eating a very wide diet---a great variety---buffered with small amounts of special condiments and carefully selected mineral supplements.

Both ways out of the jungle require proper water drinking and digestive assistance from the common ordinary lemon.

When the simple RBTI urine and saliva analysis shows improvement, you will have your proof that the old dead or dying cells clogging your body are being steadily replaced with fresh new high energy cells.  You should experience that "aha" moment, as so many before you have, when you realize that "disease"---whatever disease is---is going out with the yucky and useless.

It is a good moment.  Of course, there are the few who go back to the comfort of a pill for every trouble.  It's OK.

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

Selling “legal” drugs is a trillion dollar industry and God help those who get in the way. That is one side of the coin.  That is why RBTI should always be cautious when they restore people to health without drugs.  And why not?  Wouldn’t you be threatened if the simple health restoring protocols of a “country” doctor started cutting intoyour obscene profits?

The other side of the coin involves those people such as doctors, pharmacists, scientists, detail men, and drug company owners who profit whenever someone sick, or not sick, fills a prescription.  Yes, that profit motive can get to you—if you let it.  Honesty can go by the wayside.  Ethics can fade away.  A conflict of interest that any school kid can identify becomes a blind spot because “everyone else is doing it.”

Here is a link to a story that I suspect is only one of dozens of stories about how big-name MDs can fall by the wayside when they focus too much on making money by pushing drugs.  You may want to read the posted comments as well.  Comments are a way for readers to give short feedback on how a story touched them. Lincoln said that you can’t fool all the people all the time.  It appears a few people are waking up to how they have been fooled by drug pushers posing as respectable doctors.   Kudos to Senator Grassley.

It appears that only the United State and New Zealand permit drug ads on TV.  While I can’t speak for New Zealand, I can safely say that every US commercial channel runs numerous drug ads each day.  Why?  Well, haven’t you heard “follow the money.”

The makers of one class of drugs annoy me to no end as they brag endlessly that their cholesterol lowering substances are clinically proven to reduce death rates.   Believe it or not, they are pushing to have doctors prescribe their wares for people with “normal” cholesterol under the guise of “saving lives.” It appears their plan is to simply have everyone on drugs.

Give me a break!  How can anything that creates a “lower cholesterol reading” by precipitating the cholesterol onto the vessel walls make sense in any way?  Carey Reams patiently explained to thousands of people that simply drinking enough water to keep the urine salts at a controlled level removed the stinging effect of the salts in the blood.  When there is no salty burning on the vascular walls, there is no need for the body to produce extra cholesterol to protect them.

You, dear reader, are at risk of being brainwashed by powerful interests trying to find a way to sell you more drugs—voluntarily or involuntarily.  However, you have a powerful ally to help you fight back.  It’s called the Internet and it delivers information you simply could not have obtained a dozen years ago.

The Healthy Skeptic is one of those Internet columns that preaches good sense as it points out, over and over, that the drug-emperor has no clothes on.  You may find that signing up for their monthly column is well worth while.  Here are two columns that patiently put the lie to the drug baloney.  As you read, think about vessel inflammation and try to tie that in to Reams' teaching.
