Resting the Digestive System
Perhaps one of the simplest and best ways of helping to restore the body to maximum health is to make a point of having one day weekly without solid foods, eating only raw fruits or soups. This gives the digestive system an opportunity to rest and to eliminate accumulated wastes.
Any radical change of diet must be initiated very gradually. For instance, in the beginning meat could be omitted entirely for one or two days weekly, and in any case arthritics should not eat it more than once a day, and then in very small portions, as it is known to produce uric acid which is one of the main culprits in engendering and fostering arthritis.
After a trial period meat could be alternated with other proteins, such as eggs, low fat cheese, nuts, beans, seeds - always in moderate quantities.
