I was told I have melanosis of the colon, and I shouldn't take anymore colon cleansers. Would my colon become damaged, if I do the Full Body Cleanse?

Can you please write or address an article about regular supermarket meat vs. halal meat? Point out that there is primarily no difference, based on the article you previously wrote on the dangers of meat. Meat is meat! I am Muslim myself, and I don't eat even halal meat.

Please read our article entitled "Halal Meat vs. Supermarket Meat" and "What Does Organic Really Mean?".

I was informed my two year old son has sleep apnea and requires surgery. During his sleep, he stops breathing for several seconds. This worries me! What herbs can he take so he can have a normal sleep?

Herbs can only assist! They are not the solution! I would recommend that he doesn't sleep on a pillow. He needs a bed that allows his body to slant, so his head will be lower than his feet. This way, oxygen can rush to his brain. Please read the "Sleep Apnea" article. Make sure you get a guarantee that surgery will solve the problem. Surgery is always a big risk.

I just had a partial hysterectomy due to having a very low blood count, and finding 2 fibroids. Since the surgery, I am feeling very unmotivated, tired, and I have a very stressful job to return to. I used to weight around 190, and have dropped down to 180 since the surgery. I need to regain the blood level back to where it should be in my body. I need to become motivated, and full of energy again. I would also like to lose another 10 pounds, and feel better again. What do recommend?

I highly recommend you perform the Full Body Cleanse, and read our e-book "The Mental Science Manual", while performing the Full Body Cleanse. You should release your desired 10 lbs you seek to release!

I've had a bump on my gum for nearly 20 years. It is most likely an abscess, developed from a childhood injury. On occasion, it swells, and becomes slightly painful to the touch. A few weeks after, it shrinks again. Is there a natural alternative to a root canal?

I never heard of a root canal surgery for a gum boil or abscess. Gum boils usually go away on their own. They are due to a mucus-forming diet. Consider going mostly raw foods (60%), and vegan (40%). Gargle with hydrogen peroxide and water. Read my article "Oil Pulling" and start performing this exercise. Brush with our Natural Tooth Powder.

My daughter was diagnosed with G6PD. I have heard of some children growing out of it. What nutrients could she possible be missing? What can we start supplying her body with, so she can possibly grow out of it?

I would recommend Moringa Extract, Vitamin C Extract, Kemetian Gold, and Children's Iron Formula (see Childen's Formula on our site) to provide added nutrition. I would also recommend our Enzyme Formula (one capsule a day). G6PD is an enzyme deficiency. There is help for your daughter Beloved!

I usually wear an Afro, but now I keep my hair in braids under a hat. A month ago my hair began to break, and my scalp got very dry. So, I started using shea butter, and olive oil. It started to work, soon after I made the mistake of putting braids, with synthetic fibers in my hair. It tore the sides of my hair out. I have about 6 or more inches of my hair left. What should I do now?

Pour the oil into your palms, and then rub into you hair and then comb! Hair should be shiny, and smell good. You may also want to check our Hygiene And Beauty and Hair products.

How can I make the transition from cooked food to raw food? Do you have any raw recipes for children? How can I get kids to eat raw?

Children do as you do, so let the child see you eating raw food as well. Fruits are the best raw foods to eat, as they are naturally sweet. Purchase "Alternative Diet and Lifestyle Manual", for the numerous raw food resources to assist you in this transition.

What do you recommend for someone who masturbates frequently?

My major reason for detoxing was to release weight and remove toxins. While on the Pancreas Cleanse, I eliminated 2-3 times per day. I didn't experience that on the detox. So, if I understand you correctly, I should then perform another Pancreas Cleanse, until I rid the body of the weight? Are there any additional supplements you suggest along with this cleanse?

Yes, perform the Pancreas Cleanse, until you get your desired results relating to weight. But, it is also important to cleanse detoxify the body too, not just focus on weight loss Beloved!
