Medical Medium 90-day thyroid healing therapy (part 1)

At the beginning of your health recovery process, you can focus on incorporating the healing foods and supplements from the articles “Powerful Healing Foods for the Thyroid” and “Healing Herbs and Supplements for the Thyroid.” When you are ready to take it to the next level, the 90-day cleanse we will introduce to you in this article is right for you.

The 90-Day Thyroid Therapy is suitable for everyone. Whether you are on a high-protein, gluten-free, vegetarian or vegan diet, or do not adhere to any particular diet or nutritional belief system, this cleanse is a critical approach to destroying EBV and restoring your body and thyroid that can be incorporated into any type of daily routine.

Here's how it works: For 90 days, follow the instructions in this article. With each new month, choose which of the three 30-day plans to follow based on your individual needs, resources, and schedule. The essence of this regimen is "mix and match."

Many people can heal with just Option A (Month of Liver, Lymph, and Bowel Clearance) , and some may only need one month of it instead of the full 90 days. Many people may need to repeat just Option B (Month of Heavy Metal Detox) for the entire 90 days to clear their symptoms and feel better. For others – those who have been sick for a long time or have an aggressive form of EBV – Option B (Month of Thyroid Clearance) will give the best chance for healing. Everyone is different.

Want to make gradual changes? Then you'll probably like the natural progression where you start with Option A, move on to Option B, and end with Option C.

Want to move on to more aggressive treatment? Then you might want to start straight with Option C, then move on to Option B, and finish with Option A.

Are you desperate to see dramatic changes in your health? Then it might be best to repeat Option B three times in a row to fill out the entire 90 days or more.

You decide which approach to take. Write down what’s on your “add” list and what’s on your “avoid” list as a reminder when food choices become overwhelming. If your life is very busy and you’re having a hard time sticking to a daily schedule during any of these months, try to do your best. For example, if you’re on the go all day, pack your morning shakes and take them with you in a cooler bag. Or, drink what you can in the morning before work and save the rest for the evening when you get home. When you’re on the road, consider bringing a travel blender and throwing a few lemons in your bag. It’s ideal if you can consume the full amount of each product within the day before bed, although you won’t jeopardize your entire healing process if there are times when you can’t do everything. If you ever get off track, don't panic. Reassess what's working for you and get back on track with determination.

With each new month, assess your condition and progress. Have you planned to step up to Option B and not feel ready? Have you planned to step down to Option A and feel too good to stop? In either case, try repeating the option that works best for you. When you get to the next month, see where you are and reassess.

At the end of the 90 days, you may find yourself feeling inspired to continue. There are many people who have started the 28-day Healing Cleanse from the Healer Medium and felt so good at the end of the four weeks, when all their symptoms were gone, that they wanted to continue. You have that option here too. Feel free to turn it into a 120-day thyroid therapy or a 365-day cleansing regimen.

Don't be discouraged if it takes you a year or a year and a half to heal. Don't lose faith. Healing will begin immediately, even if your symptoms persist for some time. Recovery simply takes time if the thyroid virus has been active in your body for many years or if it is a strain that has caused you particularly severe symptoms. Know that you are not alone. Hang in there! The reward is being able to get back to your normal lifestyle, and it is worth it.

If you are someone who is cleansing quickly and is overwhelmed with detox symptoms, you don’t need to go through the full cycle of either option right from the start. Instead, choose one item from Option A to add to your life, follow the list of things to avoid, and see how those two steps play out over time. When you are ready, you can move on to incorporating the remaining items.

The point of this cleansing program is to focus on what you need in your life, not on some arbitrary belief system or tendency.

The 90-Day Thyroid Therapy is definitely not about food deprivation or starvation. It’s common for people to go into a state of abstinence and not eat when they try any cleanse. Don’t let that happen to you! Not only will this make it harder to maintain the changes, but it will also put a strain on your adrenal glands as you will be starving. For optimal adrenal support during treatment, try to eat every 1.5 to 2 hours. Breakfast is key.

Remember: It's about starving the virus, not starving yourself. The idea is to fuel yourself with delicious food that will boost your thyroid and the rest of your body so you can get rid of your symptoms and get your life back. Especially with Option B, when you'll be making the most changes that may be outside of your usual routine, be sure to eat to feel full, supplement your meals with light snacks, and plan ahead so you don't run out of food during trips or social events.

For emotional support as you give up some of the unproductive foods during this cleanse, you may find it helpful to check out the "Food for the Soul" chapter in Anthony William's book "The Most Healthy Foods." And if you need ideas for delicious and healing meals, check out the recipes we've posted on our blog, as well as the 50 recipes in the book "The Most Healthy Foods."

As you browse through the different options on the following pages, you may be struck by the simplicity of the monthly plans. Don’t let their simplicity fool you. Sometimes people write off the simplest measures as too simple to change the way they feel, when in fact, the opposite is true. Celery juice, for example, is the cornerstone of each option – pure, unadulterated celery juice, with no added superfoods or powders. That’s because celery juice itself is an undiscovered superfood with a complex nutritional profile. Only celery juice itself can do its wonders. Alkalizing, enzyme-rich, electrolyte-enhancing, DNA-repairing, blood sugar-balancing, antiseptic, and more, this tonic is a “simple” step toward health that shouldn’t be overlooked.

It is the same with the other steps. Most people who have struggled with symptoms for a long time and have tried many different treatments have become sensitive. Their digestive system is sensitive, their central nervous system is sensitive - their whole body is sensitive. The techniques in this therapy are the best for caring for both these sensitive people and those with a healthier body. When taken seriously and applied correctly, these techniques have great power.

Now prepare to enter a new stage of life: healing, cleansing, rebirth. May the next 90 days be filled with joy and transformation.

Option A: a month of liver, lymph and intestinal release

What to add

The following healing tonics can be added to your normal lifestyle by using them with meals and snacks. You are not meant to spend your entire day on these liquids alone. Make sure you fuel yourself with enough food in between so you don’t get hungry. Also, keep in mind that whatever type of eating philosophy you follow, you will want to make sure that some of the healing foods and supplements we have already shared with you are part of your daily routine to give yourself the best chance of a quick and effective recovery.

• Drink about a pint of celery juice every morning on an empty stomach. (Make sure you drink fresh, pure celery juice, with no other ingredients. For instructions on how to make it, see the article “How to Make Celery Juice” . If you are sensitive and a pint is too much, start with a smaller amount and increase it. Celery juice is a healing drink, not a caloric one, so you will still need a snack afterwards to fill you up in the morning. Just wait at least 15 minutes after drinking celery juice before consuming anything else.)
• Drink about half a liter of water with lemon or lime at noon or early afternoon. (Squeeze the juice of half a lemon or lime into half a liter of water.)
• In the late afternoon, drink about half a liter of water with lemon or lime.
• Drink approximately half a liter of aloe vera water or cucumber juice every evening. (See here for instructions on making fresh aloe vera water . If you choose cucumber juice , use it neat or strained with a little parsley or coriander if desired. If you are traveling and it is not possible to make aloe vera water or cucumber juice, try drinking an additional glass of water with lemon in the evening instead.)

What to avoid

• Give up the unproductive foods that we described in the article "Which foods to avoid in thyroid diseases" : eggs, dairy products ( including milk, cream, yogurt, cheese, kefir and ghee ), gluten, rapeseed, corn, soy and pork.

How are you being treated?

This month you will receive support for the liver, lymph, and digestive system, while the protocol is aimed at fighting EBV and giving the thyroid a rest.

While you might not necessarily think of gut health as important to your thyroid, it is crucial. When levels of hydrochloric acid (the good acid) in your stomach are low, unproductive acids tend to rise up your esophagus while you sleep, affecting your thyroid and preventing it from healing. Celery juice is the best way to increase your hydrochloric acid levels so that unproductive acids caused by bad bacteria stay away.

Celery juice also contains mineral salts with undiscovered disinfectant properties that make them antiviral, killing EBV throughout the body, as well as antibacterial to the EBV cofactor - streptococci , so they help lower your viral load.

Hydration is also key here. Chances are you’re chronically dehydrated—most people are. When you’re dehydrated, your body can’t flush out waste properly, nor can your brain function at its peak. The fresh juices and waters on this list are some of the most hydrating tonics on the planet. They provide living water and micronutrients that revitalize your cells and help cleanse your liver and lymphatic system of EBV and its waste. Lemon and lime water has the added benefit of helping to break down sludge and gallstones, which can help increase bile production in your liver, increase hydrochloric acid levels in your gut, and reduce the bad acids that cause acid reflux . If you’re someone who easily forgets to drink enough water, you’ll find that introducing these tonics into your life is an incredibly restorative tool. And if you are someone who is committed to drinking a certain number of glasses of water per day, you can replace your usual plain water with some of these tonics.

Remember, if you have a tendency to detox quickly, you'll want to take these changes one step at a time. And if you're someone who has difficulty detoxing, or if you've been told you can't detox ( usually along with a diagnosis of lupus or Raynaud's syndrome ), know that this is often a sign of a congested liver and congested lymphatic system due to high levels of viral waste products. The best way to relieve this congestion, which may or may not have been diagnosed at the doctor's office, is with the measures in this option. These steps are a soothing, hydrating way to free up your body's filtering systems without paying the price of detox symptoms.
