38. Urinary Tract Infection and Weight Loss

Terry had just completed a 3 day course with Donna Roth and she was all fired up about taking her health on ,in a big way . She was several pounds overweight, feeling fat and uncomfortable. She had in the past experienced urinary tract infections that created those horrible burning sensations whenever she went to the bathroom. Purchasing the book , Paleo Diet by Dr Cordain and the essential Nature’s Sunshine products was Terry’s first step. Now armed with knowledge and determination Terry started her herbal routine ;

Probiotic 11 , 2 capsules first thing in the morning,

A shake with frozen berries, whey protein as in NutriBurn and Chinese Mineral Chi Tonic,

Drinking lots of water and Chlorophyll to flush the system then exercise .

Sugar and grains were totally eliminated.

Parsley, Capsicum and Super Omega 3 were taken with each meal

These products were indicated by a Zyto scan and Donna Roth’s muscle testing technique. When the occasional hunger or craving struck Terry , she simply ate some almonds. Only one week into the program Terry, feeling quite confident and in control , started to feel that awful dreaded sensation of burning within the urinary tract, a feeling she had in the past identified with as a urinary tract infection. The thought of going to the doctor crossed her mind but only for an instant when she came to the realization that the only thing the doctor could do for her was to prescribe an antibiotic which she had succumbed to in the past. But not this time ! An absolute “AHA” moment hit her! “If I but feed my body what it really needs then my body will heal itself .” That statement struck her as profound and almost new founded ! The course had taught her to take control. to be empowered and to trust in the obvious. Yes her body would heal even without the antibiotics that she was taught to rely on in the past. The past was the past and this was no longer a part of her being. Terry had entered into the dark tunnel of the unknown . Would she live through this without antibiotics. Would these simple herbs really heal her body? All kinds of questions flooded her anxious mind. She dived into this program with purpose . She increased her water consumption with lots of Chlorophyll, she increased the Parsley especially designed for the kidneys to 8 capsules a day. The end was certainly nowhere in sight. The bloating was getting worse and the pain was in no way subsiding. Day three and still no results and things were now even worse than ever ! Fright was almost ready to take over. However, one thing was clear; quitting was not an option. The words from Donna’s course kept ringing in her ears, “Feed the body and allow the body to take its course of action and give it time to heal. Infections usually take about 3 to 7 days.” The morning of the fourth day finally arrived . Terry woke up to use the bathroom. The bloating was gone . The pain had subsided. The burning sensation was no longer there . In truth the urinary tract infection was gone! “ I had just crossed the threshold of the incredible ! I had cured my urinary tract infection without any antibiotics! “ Now onto the scale for the morning weigh–in : two pounds lighter and 5 pounds in total since starting the program one week ago. How empowering to know that your body will heal all on its own once you provide it with the nutrition it needs to do the healing!
