There are other factors involved also, but this is a very serious one 
that really upsets the weight. If the pancreas should manufacture too much thyroxine and the thyroid adds potassium to it, then you would have trouble putting on weight. If it doesn't manufacture enough you will have too much weight. Doctors give thyroid extract with the po-tassium for the thyroid gland, which is the worn-out cell of the thyroid gland. The thyroxine is the cell that is not worn-out. Which makes all the difference in the world in the results you get. You may have a case wherein the pancreas is manufacturing the 
right amount of thyroxine, but the body does not have enough potassi-um, therefore, you can be over or under weight from that problem. But probably it would be overweight. But it may be either one. The RBTI test tells us definitely whether this is the cause of overweight, or whether it is something else. The reason the liver is not manufacturing enough glycogen is that 
there are not enough calciums of the right kind present. Therefore the liver doesn't have the material to make the amino 
acids that the pancreas needs to manufacture the thyroxine to control the body weight. For people who are too skinny the thyroid manufac-tures too much thyroxine. For the overweight it doesn't manufacture enough thyroxine. This is easily remedied by the correct diet. Overweight can be a genetic cause. You cannot do very much 
about the weight if it is a genetic thing because the genes at the time of conception determine your weight throughout your life. Many peo-ple will be thin until they reach 50 years of age, or varying ages, and then it's a matter of looking like se nior citizens. Generally people with 
big bones, broad shoulders, big head, and large feet have more weight than they want. But if it is a genetic  normal weight there isn't anything 
you can do about it. 106 If your body is in any range outside of A of the RBTI test you can 
take a diet and bring your body back to range A, and then your body 
weight will drop to its genetic normal. However, it may not be the weight you desire. You will generally look in weight like some of your aunts, uncles, or grandparents, but you'll wish you didn't. Another cause of overweight is a lack of calciums in the diet, 
which can cause extreme nervousness. These people eat, eat and eat. This is not obesity, this is a nervous condition. They eat in order to overcome the nervousness. In eating they are trying to get more calci-ums and yet the body doesn't pick it up. Nature is craving food like an alcoholic craves his drink, as a person who is on pot craves dope. Hence the gaining of weight. Also, we find that by eating it helps to control temper. If these persons don't eat they become very irritable, and very difficult to live with. Other causes of overweight: • People who eat too much fats, foods that are too rich, too much 
carbohydrates, and especially those who eat them late at night (espe-cially carbohydrates) when the body already has a sufficient amount. • Eating too much potato and bread. The starch in the potato can 
be converted very easily into sugar by the liver. A very poor choice of foods can be the cause of overweight. • Not drinking enough distilled water, to regulate the foods. • Slow digestion of food. It digests so slowly until the body chem-
istry is starving all the time. They eat all they can hold, feel stuffed. • Skip breakfast, have a brunch. At noon they have a lunch, and in 
the evening eat a big, big meal. They get up feeling miserable in the morning. They feel like something the cat has drug in, and they can't do one-tenth of the work that they  ought to be doing. They are trying 
to hold a job. They are upset and irritable. The brunch does not even digest. They have their lips poked out for someone to step on, and generally someone accommodates them before the day is over. Their favorite song is that "Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen." This too can cause overweight: just plain frustration. These are factors that need to be determined before we can pin-
point the cause and effect of overweight. 107 Weight is very easy to control. Anyone who will keep the carbo-
hydrate sugar level between 1 and 2 of the RBTI test, eat a great varie-
ty of foods, especially vegetabl es, and cut down on meats (way down 
on all kind of meats, and do away with the eating of unclean meats), I have never seen one person whose weight wouldn't drop to its genetic level. (By unclean meat I am speaking of those referred to in Leviticus 11: pork and all its products, including ham, bacon, sausage, pork chops, spare ribs, pork roast, salt bacon, cracklings-any part of a hog is unclean to man. All the shell fish, including shrimp, tuna, mackerel, catfish, oysters, lobster, clams, scallops. Any fish without fins and scales is unclean for human consumption. Then there is also the rab-bit, guinea pig, crow, buzzard, bald eagle, muskrat, and snakes.) The unclean meats digest in a period of an average of three hours, causing more energy to be released than a body can consume. The clean meats digest in an average of 18 hours, giving the per-
son a chance to use the energy as it is made available. The same prin-ciple is putting high-test gasoline in the car that is not manufactured for it. The car will run better if regular gasoline is used. The high-test gasoline will burn up the pistons and the valves. The 
steel and the iron is not tempered for the heat of the high-test gasoline. I am against the abuse of foods. Use temperance in all things. I am not against fried chicken, but  there are people who have it 
every day. I am not against coffee, but there are people who drink 20-30 cups a day. Coffee many times can be an asset to people with ar-thritis or bladder or urinary problems, even weight problems. Coffee with chickory is good for people with low calciums and have nervous disorders. Coffee should be weak enough for you to see the bottom of the cup for it to be a diuretic. Watermelon juice can be a very fine diuretic, providing that you 
are not fat, or do not have high blood sugar. Some people can take wa-termelon juice and have high blood sugar without raising it, but some cannot. There are conditions in which pe ople have high blood sugar and 
also urinary problems. These kind of conditions require opposite diets. Even in a retreat under the very best of controlled diet, it is sometimes 108 very difficult to make a diet that will show immediate improvements 
for the person to recognize the improvement. However, in a retreat the 
testers and the doctors who are supe rvising can tell from one test to 
another whether the person is improving or not. No one is kept in a re-treat whose body does not respond to diet. If the body chemistry does not respond in seven days they are asked to leave because it simply means that the RBTI is not effective for their body chemistry. There is less than one percent of all people tested whose body 
chemistry will not respond to these tests. There are people who come too late to the retreat. But if we can 
keep a person living for 30 days, and their body chemistry continues to improve, and they follow through on the diet after they go home, take the test as instructed, as far as we know, they all get well. There are people who wish to go back into their old way of living 
and break all the rules of health, and commit suicide. One man, who was only in his late thirties, had acute emphysema. He began the RBTI diet in the early summer. It was not necessary for him to be in a retreat. He could do his food chemistry at home. By November there was no sign of emphysema in his lungs. I personally instructed him not to go out in inclement weather. He had a poultry farm. I told him it wouldn't make any difference if every chicken he had died, "Don't you go out in bad weather." All of the new cells in the lungs were so young, his lungs were about as delicate as a new-born baby. They had not yet built up the reserve and strength of adult cells. I warned, "If you do go out in inclement weather you could take double pneumonia and you could be dead in 48 hours. DON'T GO OUT!" He came the first of December for the test and I warned him again. One cold, wet December day they had some baby chicks come in, it was raining, the wind was blowing, and one of the employees didn't come and he went out to tend to the baby chicks. That night he took pneumonia and 12 hours later was dead. This is suicide. We can't help that. An autopsy was done and the doctors were surprised that there was no emphysema in either lung. 109 Overweight is not the cause of death for anyone. Death results be-
cause the body chemistry is in the wrong range. More people under-
weight, or who have normal weight, die in proportion to overweight people. 110 CHAPTER 15 
FADS OR FACTS 
 
I am often asked, "Is this food or that food good for you?" Many times people think I just do not want to tell them. They ask 
the RBTI testers if this or that food is good or bad for them, and the testers give the same answer: "I do not know whether it is good or bad for you because we do not have scientific facts to back up our an-swers. Until we have the RBTI test made we do not know whether something is good or bad for anyone, unless it is a no-no, such as in-
temperance on anything, or the unclean meats, or the failure to rest one day in the week, or that we make a garbage can out of our stom-achs, or that we are not drinking enough distilled water." There are some rules that can be followed which will greatly aid 
most adults, or even children, in some respect: 
• Eat the heavy carbohydrates early in the morning, unless you are 
a diabetic and are instructed differently. • Eat the large meal, the heavy meal, in the middle of the day. • Eat a very light meal in the evening. • Do not nibble while you are watching television at night because 
you will likely find the night sleepless. The lack of sleep has never killed anyone, but worrying about sleep does kill. • In the American diet most adults eat too much meat and not 
enough vegetables. Everyone should have a raw (green, leafy) salad before the main course, at least once a day, twice a day is better, if they wish to stay healthy. Salad dressings may be used if desired. • People should drink distilled water systematically, and should 
keep their body in rhythm. It is very important to have meals on time, or within a half hour one way or the other. There should be a time for a bath eaeh day, and a definite time for your bathroom duties. It is a very good idea to brush your teeth after each meal. In doing this your body gets accustomed to a rhythm, and it is ready for food at a given time. But if it never knows when you are going to take food it throws the body chemistry into confusion, which results in a loss of energy 111 because the body is unprepared for the food that you are eating. Occa-
sionally this is all right, but whenev er it is kept up day after day, week 
in and week out, month in and month out, year in and year out, anyone 
is asking for trouble. Even for men it is a good thing to have a definite time to shave. It makes a world of difference in your whole day to keep your body rhythm as near perfect as possible. An occasional break in this rhythm will not do any harm. An oc-
casional big meal in the evening w ill not do any harm, but a continual 
breaking of these rules will affect your health. What foods are nourishing to one person will be poison to anoth-
er. There are genetic reasons why this  is true. There is no one food 
that I know of that agrees with everyone. Some advocate there are combinations of foods that one should 
not eat, such as acids with alkaline,  milk with acid fruit, etc. This is 
taboo. Energy is created by putting acids against alkalines. In 1973 I recommended a diet for two ladies in the retreat who 
were in their seventies. One of them had worked all the days of her life, the other kept house for her. The one who kept house for the other worked tirelessly for her sister. They came to the retreat for a tune-up. They went on a 3-day lemon and water fast. There was no sweetening in the lemon. They went through a mild 
withdrawal. On the fourth day the one who had worked out decided that she could not eat the poached egg and toast for breakfast. The cook could not change the menu without a written order from 
me. The lady said, "Mr. Reams, I am allergic to eggs, I cannot eat eggs. I haven't eaten eggs in forty years. Now you have given me eggs for breakfast." I got out her record of the past few days, looked it over and said, 
"I see no reason why you shouldn't eat eggs. I want you to eat eggs for breakfast." She said, "They will make me sick." I said, "Good. This is the place, if eggs will make you sick, get 
sick. This is why you are here." I knew she was not allergic to eggs. She did eat the egg and toast. It is very important to know the next 
day what the person ate the day before in order to know what foods 112 would give them the most energy in the shortest length of time. That 
afternoon I saw her and asked, "Well, are you sick?" "No," she replied , "I'm not sick. Those were the best eggs I've 
eaten in forty years." She wasn't allergic  to them at all. It was all in her 
head. She had an idea eggs would make her sick so had not eaten them, and consequently there are minerals in eggs that she needed and were missing in her body chemistry. A few days later there was a half grapefruit served for breakfast 
and a glass of skimmed milk (non-fat). There again she refused to eat the food that was set before her. This time she came to me and was quite excited. "Mr. Reams," she said, "you are supposed to know about foods and this is supposed to  be a health retreat. Don't you know 
that you can't mix milk and orange or grapefruit? One is alkaline and one is acid and it will make you sick. Don't you know you can't do that?" "No," I said, "I don't know that. Nevertheless, this is what you are 
going to eat this morning for breakfast." She said, "It will make me sick." I replied, "Great, go ahead, get sick. Let's find out whether we are 
on fads or facts. Here we go by the numbers. You go eat your grape-fruit, and drink your milk. Then we' ll see if you get sick. Please let me 
know if you get sick." I didn't see her again until the next morning. When I asked, "Did 
the milk and grapefruit make you si ck?" she replied, "Didn't hurt me 
at all. I felt wonderful all day. In fact, I feel better than I have in years." Many times people have fads that they think are the healthy way 
to live, and it is about the worst thing they could do. There is only one combination that I know of that I do not recom-
mend and that is mixing pears with celery. It won't do any harm, but the juices of each neutralizes the other and not enough energy is given off to do any good. It is almost like water when you put these two juices together. Some who come to the retreat are surprised and say, "We thought 
you ran a health retreat, and you serve coffee!" 113 When people come who drink 12 to 30 cups of coffee a day you 
cannot take them off of coffee instantly. It may cause them to have a 
heart attack. We take them off of coffee slowly. Coffee is more dan-gerous to stop quickly than cigarettes. I have never known anyone to be harmed by quitting cigarettes instantly, even if they were smoking three packs a day. But I have known people to die that quit coffee in-
stantly when they were drinking 20 cups or more a day. And they did it on their own, it was not on any program that I recommended. They just simply decided to quit. They became so religious in time th at they quit coffee, and all of a 
sudden the heart simply stopped. Caffeine is a stimulant for the heart, and if you are inebriated by caffeine then please do not quit coffee quickly. Take a week or two to quit if you are drinking over a dozen cups a day, and a week if you are drinking less than a dozen. Then drink coffee only as you need it. One cup of weak coffee (you might 
call it Brazilian Tea-you can see the bottom of the cup) is very good for people over forty. "Throw away the frying pan," is a half-truth that is put out as fact. This came about over 100 years ago when the only thing they had to fry foods in was hog lard, or shortening. There is no such thing as vegetable shortening. It is either ve getable oil or hog lard. Hog lard is 
shortening, and if the label reads VEGETABLE SHORTENING, it simply means some vegetable oil and a lot of hog lard. So don't be 
fooled by reading the label (they forgot to put in a comma). Even Crisco, which is supposed to be 100% all vegetable has 
"shortening" written on the can, s imply because some people don't 
know what shortening is, and therefore that word should be removed from the label. Crisco is pure vegetable oil. We need to use more oils and more fried foods than we have been 
taught to use, but use the better grade of vegetable oil. If there were more oil (corn oil) used today in our cooking, especially in the steam-ing of vegetables, and in casseroles there would be less constipation problems. I highly recommend the use of  corn oil, or a high quality ol-
ive oil, for frying or cooking because it is easier to digest than any other oil. A high quality olive oil is tasteless, and if it tastes strong it 114 should not be used. Corn oil does not have the amount of preserva-
tives in it to hurt anything. The vegetable oil that requires a very low solvent, such as corn oil 
and olive oil is very easily digested. In the liver they form gelatin, which prevents the undigested foods from sticking to the lining of the 
intestines and makes elimination easy. Now don't expect the first time you use vegetable oil to get a perfect elimination. This is something that takes weeks and months to get your system to really synchronize to manufacture a sufficient amount of gelatin to afford the body to give a good, clean elimination. If more vegetable oils were used in cooking today there would be much less diverticulitis. There are other vegetable oils like Wesson Oil (peanut oil), Sesa-
me Oil, that are very good if you are very healthy, but if you're not healthy you should use oils using the least amount of solvent possible. Safflower oil is one of the more difficult oils to digest; however, a lit-tle bit of safflower mixed with lemon juice makes a very good salad oil dressing. In the cooking of most meats I suggest using one tablespoon of 
Manichewitz medium dry grape wine to each pound of beef, lamb, or venison, and one teaspoon in cooking chicken. Also, in cooking chicken use some thyme when it comes to a boil (or use the thyme in the water in which the blood is soaked out of the chicken before cook-ing). Thyme takes away the animal taste. We recommend chicken and fish once or twice a week; beef and 
lamb once a week for those who are meat eaters. Meat should be soaked in salt water 12 hours (using twice the 
amount of salt that you'd use if you were salting the meat for cooking) to get the blood out, and then to soak it in fresh water 24 hours. If meat is good, it will be better wit hout the blood, and if it's not good, 
taking the blood out won't make it any worse. Soaking will not tough-en the meat. Adolph's Papaya Meat Tenderizer is excellent to use. Pa-pain from the papaya is a white powder (an enzyme in the juice of the green fruit of the papaya and apparen tly intermittent in action between 
pepsin and trypsin) and tenderizes the meat, making it much more di-gestible. 115 The only difference in the chemistry of raw and cooked meat is 
that the cooked meat gives up the moisture, and as it gives up the 
moisture the tissues become tenderized. Meat should be cooked until well done. Medium rare and rare meat should never be eaten if you want to be healthy. They are much more difficult to digest. There is the idea that fertile eggs are better for you than eggs that 
are not fertile. There is only one cell difference in the fertile egg. For it to make any difference you would have to use at least 2,400 eggs at one breakfast. These facts can be substantiated by laboratory tests and only those 
facts that can be substantiated by laboratory tests are of any lasting value. It is very important to st udy foods and food chemistry, and also 
to read the labels when you buy foods. However, the labels are written by chemists for chemists, and mo st housewives and people who buy 
foods are not chemists, and, therefore, they should use dictionaries more to find the meaning of the words on the labels. Certain foods slow down digestion in most people. Such as 
cheese, which not only slows down the digestion, but also is constipat-ing. However, if you have loose bowels, cheese is an excellent food. If you have a constipation problem and poor elimination, you should go very light on cheeses. One should not eat over two slices of bread a day. If you eat more 
bread than that you are threatening the nutrients and minerals found in other foods. It should be toasted for best nutrients, and it makes it eas-ier to digest. There are people who need a little wine, or Zest Tonic with their 
food. Not before or after, but with their food. People who have cold hands and cold feet all the time should have a little white wine with their food. Zest Tonic is the nearest product ever made to the exact enzymes that are made by the pancreas and is better than wine. Every-one has a built-in whiskey still, or gin factory, so to speak. It turns the excessive sugars into alcohol, and it is the alcohol that determines our 
body temperature. I'm not speaking of fever, I'm speaking of a normal body temperature (98.6° F). Generally people over 40 years of age are 116 troubled with cold hands and cold feet, or are cold all over. This is be-
cause their pancreas is not manufacturing alcohol. It is not the use of alcohol that is bad, but it is the abuse of the use 
of alcohol, and also the using of the wrong type of alcohol. The RBTI tests will indicate which, and how much, of the four kinds of alcohol is the best for your body chemistry. It is recommended that you use 1 teaspoon of Zest Tonic in four ounces of grape juice after meals and sip it (sit down and do absolutely nothing) slowly for 30 minutes, or 
until your feet and hands become warm. After a few weeks you will notice that each time you do this ther e is a mild headache that will fol-
low. Do not quit using the Zest T onic because of the mild headache; 
however, cut the amount in half and when a ½ teaspoon full, sipped 
for 30 minutes, after dinner and supper, if it gives a headache, cut it down to ¼ teaspoon, and when that gives you a headache, use only a drop or two, and when that gives you a headache discontinue it com-pletely. The pancreas will again be working perfectly. Some people go to a doctor and he says, "No salt. I want you to 
have a bland diet," so people buy salt substitutes, which is just as bad as salt itself because salt substitutes simply means it is not sodium chloride (which is ordinary table salt [Na Cl] ). Other salts can be magnesium chloride, iron chloride, ammonia chloride, potassium chloride, carbon chloride, etc. There are salts that do not contain chlorides in them whatever. Some are ammonia salts, nitrogen salts, and a number of carbonate 
salts. All of the salts cause the blood vessels to dilate, and also the intes-
tines to form diverticulos areas in them, and generally upsets the body. Some people, before they taste the food, empty a salt shaker and yet their salts are perfectly normal in the tests because their body chemis-try is perfect enough that it throws out  the salt and does not retain it. There are other people who do not use any salt, or salt substitutes, and 
yet their salt is dangerously high. Sometimes high enough to cause or bring about an angina heart attack. It is not how much salt you use, it's 
how much salt your body retains. 117 Sea salt is the worst of all salts for people to use. In many people it 
causes a dry, hot tongue and it dries up the saliva glands and the 
mouth is always dry because sea salt contains seven kinds of salt and only the healthiest log rollers (or a man doing heavy muscular work) can use it, and they should use it sparingly. Just because it comes from the sea does not mean that it is better. Some people are so afraid of food additives until the fear of the 
food additive does them more harm than the additive itself. "Perfect love casts out all fear," and there is nothing in the life to fear but fear itself. It has been said that "a coward dies many deaths but a brave man only dies once." There has never been a time in the history of American foods that they are as safe as now. These additives make our foods safer and have a more lasting result than all the vaccines that some doctors give. There are foods that do have too much additives in them. One is 
ice cream. It has many additives, it won't even melt. It's a smooth, vel-vety, sweet flavor, but it has very little food value. It will rot instead of turning to a whey. Any ice cream th at will not melt, or will not turn 
to a whey, is unsafe to use for food, as it does not have much nutrient in it. Good ice cream will melt into a milkshake, and there are some of these now on the market. Some orange juices are diluted with water and have a preservative 
that makes it dangerous to drink for people with a high cholesterol or a high urea. It is always safer to drink fresh orange juice. I have a very high respect and highly recommend Ocean Spray 
Cranberry Juice and Welch's Unsweetened Grape Juice. If these com-panies keep their products in the future as well as now they will be 
great products in years to come. The unsweetened grape juice has the natural grape sugars in it. I also have great respect for Dole and Del Monte Pineapple Juice. Pineapple, unsweetened, whether in slices or crushed, is very rich in minerals. Most everyone should eat a little pineapple once or more a week 
(unless they are allergic to it). Always use the fresh fruit whenever possible. When buying, always buy the fruit that feels solid and is the heaviest. 118 Be temperate in all things and use a great variety of foods. It's much easier to maintain a higher reserve energy rating by fol-
lowing these principles. 119 CHAPTER 16 
MIN-COL 
 
While in college I became aware of  the great mineral deficiencies 
in our foods. In 1934 I discovered the best of the minerals that is still on the 
market today, Min-Col. This is a derivative from bone meal which is very effective in rebuilding bone structure, etc. Min-Col is the essence of bone meal. There is approximately 60 
pounds of this substance in a ton of bone meal, but man has never learned to get over three or four pounds out of a ton. It is a bit expen-sive. There are 100 capsules in a bottle, so 3½ bottles would be 
enough for a person for a year. Therefore you have spent approximate-ly $50 (unless during pregnancy), besides no cavities, no dental bills and strong teeth and strong bones. What you spend for these capsules decreases what you would have to spend with orthopedic surgeons and dentists. There is no other product on the market today that I know of that 
even remotely equals the high quality  and standard of Min-Col. There 
are some counterfeit substances on the market of very low quality (have not been proven over a period of 45 years). I raised six children with Min-Col with no cavities in their teeth and no receding gums, (plus a good diet) and no days missed from school because of illness. Six-month-old babies should take ½ of one Min-Col capsule daily. Let the mother break it open and put it on the foods. This will cause the child to have strong teeth. They will not have cavities or lose their teeth too early. At four years of age they should take one capsule a day for 96 years, and if they live to be older than that, repeat the dose. Females should take two capsules twice a day during pregnancy, 
assuming they have been taking one capsule a day previously. After the baby is weaned, then go back to one capsule a day. When fingernails tear easily, are rigid, thin, have rough edges or 
have white spots, this is a sign of a need of Min-Col. 120 When the calciums drop too low people become irritable and 
nervous. If you take the wrong calciums, or you are not taking enough 
of the right kind of calciums, then problems will result. We need to keep in mind to be sure to use the right calciums in the 
right amount at the right time. By right amounts you have to consider age, height, weight and diet. Healthy people's diet should be 30 to 35% roughage, or cellulose 
(even in animal feed this should be the same amount). If you will use 35% cellulose fiber in your diet, then you will not have any digestive problems such as constipation. After you have become ill and you have problems in the colon you will find that the liver bile is too dilute to break down the cellulose enough for it to be effective, and the lower the reserve energy, the weaker the di gestive juices and the less miner-
als you get out of the food. You are caught in a cycle of a chain reaction when everything you 
do is wrong as far as correcting your diet. Until you get your body back into range A of the RBTI test everything you eat is against you. So you need help in getting your body chemistry back into range A. This can be done under supervision in less than a week, generally in three or four days. It does not mean that you are well the first day the body chemistry is moved back into range A. It indicates that nature is repairing the damage as rapidly as possible. One thing to remember about the numbers is that a change in one 
number indicates a change in all numbers. Something Iike the Ten Commandments, if you break one, you break all. It is almost impossi-ble to fool these numbers because of cause and effect. "Well, my numbers change quite often," you say. The lower your reserve energy the more effect your diet has on 
your numbers, but if you have a high reserve energy you can eat most anything and it won't change the numbers. The very fact that your numbers are jumping around means that you have a low reserve ener-gy. Avocados and mangos are very high in minerals. Avocados are as 
rich in proteins and minerals as is a beef steak. Mangos are a very good fmit and rich in minerals, but if it is very ripe you need to get in-121 to a bathtub to eat it because it gets all over you. Some people are al-
lergic to mangos or avocados. People having this problem should not 
use them. Remember, there is hardly any food that somebody is not allergic to. Where can you find mangos? You will find that mangos (man goes) wherever woman goes. People with ulcers of the stomach, high delta cells in the stomach, 
colitis, colon pockets, hemorrhoid condition, and inflamed pancreas, and inflamed appendix, should not eat nuts or popcorn at all. It doesn't 
matter how well you chew these foods, little particles collect in the decayed spots or in the ulcerated area, or in the colitis where irritated in the intestinal tract, and can cause soreness, protrusion, swelling, and a lot more suffering than is necessary. Refrain from the use of nuts, with the exception of coconut. People with digestive problems such as just mentioned can use 
Aloe Vera Gel (one tablespoon twice a day, between meals, taken in carbonated drinks such as Collins Mixer, 7-Up, etc.). Aloe Vera Gel helps shrink hemorr hoids. It is one of the finest 
healing agents for digestive problems. It is good to learn to tell your tongue what you are going to eat, 
whether it considers it good for you or not. Evil spirits can get in the body of even saints at times if they do not eat the proper diet. The evil spirit knows that the weaker the saint becomes physically the less faith he will have, and the less capable he is of making up his mind and the less works he will have. So it is the evil spirit's job to decrease the strength so the works won't increase. The demon is sent into your body for the sole purpose of killing 
you, and when he kills you he does not die, he goes into someone else and does the same thing. Evil spirits in people does not mean that they 
are lost by any means. It is something like the rat being in a hole in a happy home. He is an undesirable visitor. Evil spirits demand the foods that they like, and they will demand it until the person is dead, eating the very foods that are killing the person and making them hate the foods that the person needs to recover his health. It says in the Bi-ble that Jesus cast out evil spirits and the people became well immedi-ately. This is a miracle. However, if you refuse to eat the foods that 122 the evil spirit demands, you are resisting him as is written in James 
4:7, and he will leave your body because unless you obey him, he will 
not stay. For it is in essence whether or not we control our taste buds (or tongue), or they control us. 123 CHAPTER 17 
CASE HISTORIES 
 
There are three classes of people: Those not sick who want to be. Those very sick and they know it. Those very sick and don't know it. This last group is a sad group, and this is particularly true of ath-
letes. At the retreats when moving the body chemistry of young men from range C to range A, they will go through severe withdrawal, probably vomiting like an alcoholic would go through when he is so-
bering up. I have these athletes to tell me, "Mr. Reams, if lever get over this, I'm going to whip you, soon as I get well. I've never been this sick in my life." They feel so good when they get over the body chemistry change they forget to whip me. The body chemistry chang-es really happen and no drug can cause the body to change from one range to another, only minerals can do this. Let us take the case of a female, age 50, weight 130, height 5'5", 
with the following numbers:

Here we have a person with low urinary blood sugar. If she were 
to go to a doctor he would run a blood test and find the blood sugar 
normal because the glucose would be up, but there is a time each day that this person would just feel they are going to die, being anemic, almost blacking out, irritable, fighting for life and wondering why everything is upsetting. This person's calciums are so deficient that she is a nervous wreck, 
and except for the grace of God, very hard to live with. Also, there is a potassium deficiency causing her to be extremely absent-minded. We would find a very high count of delta cells in the vagina, ovary 
area, and also in the bladder and both kidneys; a very high emphyse-124 ma count in both lungs, and a case of diarrhea. The food is going 
through too fast and the person is feeling very weak. She may have been married many years and become so irritable 
until the husband can't stand her, and if he has low calciums too, di-vorce will probably result. He doesn't understand her condition and she doesn't either. There is a difference between weakness and tiredness and most 
people do not distinguish the two. The athletic young' man would be unduly tired. Tired in the morning, tired at night, tired all the time, but this woman is weak all the time. This type of person must be in a re-treat because unless something is done quickly she is going to be faced with a total hysterectomy because the ovaries are affected. Also, there are delta cells in both breasts. (lf the middle finger were placed 
on the breast it would feel like cord s, it wouldn't be like a lump.) Un-
less something is done this person would have less than two years to live because the energy rating is down to 30. About all a doctor can find wrong here at this stage would be low in potassium, and a very slight calciums deficiency. If he took a pap smear there would be no blood or indication of anything wrong in the uterus area. The person is probably already over her menstrual period, but the 
calciums are still too low, giving her the effects of menopause: nerv-ousness, cold hands, cold feet, and in general needing a good tune-up. The liver is not manufacturing vitamin D, and without the liver manu-facturing an enzyme of vitamin D the body cannot assimilate calci-ums. This person must be in a retreat, or place where tests can be done every day. The numbers indicate that there is a tumorous area in the brain. The nerves in the brain are not carrying the messages through, not because they are tired, but because there is not enough electrolyte in the system for the messages to go from the brain to the vital organs. The high count of delta cells in the brain would be in the top of the head, toward the front of the brain, in the medula oblongata. This is the part of the brain with which we think and act, where we store in-formation with which we study and memorize. There are 4 percent of the people that do not go through a rough 
withdrawal, and there's no biological reason. The only reason we 125 know is that our instruments do not measure the grace of God, and, 
therefore, there is no biological reason why they should not go 
through just as rough a time as ev erybody else, but they don't and their 
numbers change and within four to seven days we can tell whether or not the body responds. It is impossible for anyone who has not been trained in the Reams 
Biological Theory of Ionization to understand these numbers. There are seven different stages that we go through from baby-
hood to senior citizen, and in each stage these numbers indicate some-thing different. ANY CHANGE IN ONE NUMBER CHANGES THE MEAN-
ING OF ALL NUMBERS, THEREFORE, ANY ONE NUMBER BE-ING PERFECT DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING, UNLESS ALL NUMBERS ARE PERFECT THEN NO NUMBERS ARE PERFECT. In this equation stated above there are two ranges that we have not 
discussed, the B and D range. You can be just as near perfect health or death in the B range and 
the D range as in the A range. If anyone's body chemistry was in any range except A, and after a week's dieting their body chemistry moves into range A, this indicates that nature would be restoring you to per-fect health at the most rapid rate possible. However, if you started too late and your reserve energy level was too low the disease may be overtaking you faster than you can supply the minerals to repair the damage, this can be determined within a 30-day period. Range B is the range that indicates that the person really needs a 
tune-up. The longer this condition exis ts, the more critical it will be-
come. The reserve energy is the criteria of the exact state of resistance of the body. Reserve energy between 18 and 60 years of age should be about 
100 if one is in perfect health. Many people do not reach reserve ener-gy level 100 in their whole lifetime and may live to be in the seven-ties, eighties, or even nineties. There are people who break every rule of health and live to a ripe old age. Again, there is no biological rea-son to explain this, but there is a theological reason. One of the Ten Commandments tells us: HONOR THY FATHER AND MOTHER: 126 THAT THY DAYS MAY BE LONG UPON THE LAND WHICH 
THE LORD THY GOD GIVETH THEE. No one knows except the 
person himself whether or not he or she truly honors (honored) his or her father and mother. This calculation of energy is very difficult, and only those who 
master the subject through the ninth seminar will be able to calculate the energy level. There are people now  that say they have cracked the 
code and that they can calculate the energy level. Believe them not. There is no way to crack a code because there is no code. It's simply mathematics used according to the age, height, weight, sex, race, as well as the specimen readings. In Chapter 7 we said it takes X amount of reserve energy divided 
by time to make a cell in the body if there is reserve energy behind it. You might ask, "What is the value of X?" The value of X is determined on the reserve energy by how strong 
the gastric juices are of one's liver. I have said many times to the RBTI students, "If you thoroughly understand seminar one, then you can go on to all eight seminars by yourself without help, but unless you do understand seminar one thoroughly and memorize the rules, then you will not understand seminar two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight or nine." I had some of the st udents in seminar five to say, "Now 
I know what you meant when you said if we thoroughly understood the math in the body chemistry which was taught in seminar one that we could carry on through all nine seminars by ourselves, but I did not understand it." We do not mind you seeing your numbers, keeping your numbers, 
or trying to compare your numbers, but unless you have had the semi-nars you will not understand them. It is possible to work so hard until you will still burn up more re-
serve energy each day than you took in and become more ill with your numbers in range A, and eventually  it will be moving into other rang-
es if you keep this up. Symptoms of a potassium deficiency in the brain show up long be-
fore it shows in the blood, and indicates that the person works like a machine. They never seem to tire. They work long, long hours and 127 very, very hard. Nature seems to tell them that their time is short and 
they've got to get all their work done and prepare them for death. A potassium deficiency in the br ain means that the brain cannot 
accept enough oxygen, and if you have this condition and a low sugar condition, you really have a problem  because the low sugar lets you 
know that there is something seriously wrong, but with the potassium deficiency there can be something seriously wrong and you may not be aware of it. Potassium deficiency shows up in range B, C, D, and E. It can show up in any range, but it is most prevalent in range Band 
D. 
Let us take an example in range B: Female, age 44, weight 120, height 5'5"

This reading would not indicate a potassium deficiency but would 
indicate the person being a borderline diabetic, that the pancreas was not producing enough insulin. She would be slightly underweight. The salt number indicates that the cholesterol is just beginning to form and that she's much more tired than she should be, and has a weakness mixed with the tiredness which is upsetting her entire digestive sys-tem. The pH readings 6.80 / 6.20 would seem almost correct. However, 
the liver is slightly too acid, and th e body chemistry is slightly too al-
kaline which would be creating some gas after eating, with minor burping, but not serious. Because of the borderline diabetic condition, the carbohydrate 
would rise higher at times and drop back down to 5.5, and if it dropped below 5.5 she would have to have something sweet or the en-ergy would run out completely. The last numbers indicate the proteins are just high enough that 
the person would be quite tired all of the time, but also indicate that she is in the menopause with hot and cold flashes, and at times, cold feet. This person is in need of a tune-up. 128 The numbers indicate that there is a vitamin C deficiency and the 
longer this condition lasts the greater the deficiency. Also there is an 
anemic condition. Most anemic people are much whiter than usual be-cause the liver is not getting enough iodine, iron or calciums. The reading indicates emphysema. This person is not getting 
enough oxygen. One of the finest things to do for emphysema is to walk a mile a day, but don't just start off and walk a mile the first day. Keep on until you walk slowly, one mile a day, with nothing in your hands. This person's numbers indicate the beginning of collagen disease, 
or a vitamin C deficiency, which begins to affect all of the vital organs and muscles. Many times there is soreness in the muscles, but it is generally travelling. It's in a joint for a day or two and then another joint and oftentimes for a day in th e big toe, indicating that it's gout, 
which it isn't really, it's just very annoying, and not a very serious problem unless this has continued for a long period of time. The long-er this condition exists the more apt it is to cause irregular menstrual cycles, and many times extremely heavy flows, or times in which the cycle lasts much longer. A hysterectomy will not solve the nervous problem and tiredness, but the deficiency can be corrected by correct-ing the diet. The reason for the mineral deficiency, the body is not assimilating 
enough variety of calciums because there is not the resistance between the acids and the alkalines. The body chemistry is out of ratio of one element to another. All foods that we eat are cationi c, with the exception of lemon. This is one reason why we recommend fresh lemon juice water or lemonade: it is nature's form of natural dilute hydrochloric acid, and the liver can take lemon juice when it is taken systematically, and in not too large amounts, and convert it into enzymes with less chemical change than any other natural substance known to man. Then the body begins to take on more calciums and corrects these conditions. The next best substance to use woul d be a man-made substance: hydro-
chloric acid tablets. 129 If the mineral deficiency condition has existed a long time, a per-
son will need both the lemonade and the tablets. Some people are allergic to lemon juice. Those allergic cannot 
urinate, it stops the kidneys from letting the water pass out into the urinary tract. Also, if one has ulcers it bums the stomach so badly the person cannot stand the burning, then they must be taken off of the lemon and given freshly squeezed cabbage juice three or four times a day (this must be used within 20 mi nutes from the time it is squeezed), 
the amounts regulated by the tester, and this will heal any ulcer. I have never seen anyone allergic to cabbage juice that had ulcers. After the ulcers are under control, six weeks to three months, then the person can start on the lemonade and it will rebuild the liver and almost make them look like they have had a bath in the fountain of youth. The D range is a more serious range than the B range because the 
body is extremely too acid, causing extreme nervousness, abnormal fear, and except for the grace of God, almost a maniac. One would have the same problems as in the other ranges but more exaggerated than in the A and B range. An example in the D range could read:

This condition is one that extremely upsets the nerves. The num-
bers indicate a potassium deficiency. The message is not going 
through from the brain to the vital organs, and it's almost impossible to work. Such a person has an idea that everyone is against them-there's a chip on their shoulder, and they are sick, and yet they don't look sick. They can also be anemic, and if this were a woman, from puberty to age 60, could be very deep in menopause with this number combination. The suffering is extreme because the nerves exaggerate the condition. THE LOWER THE CALCIUMS, THE GREATER THE FEAR. The numbers show: 130 • advanced delta cells in the vagina, uterus, ovary area, and in both 
breasts 
• a high emphysema in both lungs • a cystitic condition • the kidneys are not functioning normally because the liver is not 
manufacturing enough enzymes to maintain the energy needed to re-store the energy used each day. • have to drive themselves to do everything that they do. It would be unsafe for this person to drive a car because the blood 
sugar is so low, and this can cause as many accidents as people who are intoxicated by alcohol while driving. It slows down their emotions. They may temporarily black out, and don't know it until it's too late. ONE OF THE REQUIREMENTS IN OUR DRIVER'S LICENSE 
TESTS SHOULD INCLUDE WHETHER OR NOT THE PERSON HAS LOW BLOOD SUGAR. Urinary tests are more accurate th an the blood test on low blood 
sugar because the urinary carbohydrate reading equals the blood chemistry readings over any 24-hour period. These RBTI test numbers are not easily interpreted. This book is 
written to educate the public to the place that they will go to someone who has trained at the seminars in the Reams Biological Theory of Ionization. Some of the testers are so steeped in fads until it takes two or three 
years to de-fad them, but don't hold that against them. I would rather trust my life to the poorest tester in th e field than to trust my life to the 
use of chemotherapy cobalt or radiation. 131 CHAPTER 18 
RBTI AND PASTORAL COUNSELING 
 
Many calls have come from pastors begging, "Please do some-
thing to help me. I do not know enough about the health message to teach my people how to be healthy. I ha ve just lost with a heart attack 
one of the finest members of the church, and a very heavy financial supporter, in his thirties. He is a great loss to the church and to God's work." A Baptist pastor in Florida said, "Please, do something to help us. I have just lost one of the fine supporters of our church, only 45 years old with cancer. He had cancer for two years and the cobalt seemed to hasten his death. It breaks my heart to see that. When he was told he had cancer he asked me as his pastor what I thought about it, and I agreed that he should do what the doctors said. Now since we have been enlightened on the dangers of chemotherapy, radiation and cobalt and know it has hastened his death, his wife has left the church. She pointed her finger at my nose and said, 'If you would have counselled 
us correctly, my husband would be living today.' Reams, you've got to help us." We are establishing in the very near future seminars to teach pastors how to counsel their congregations on health. We are not go-ing to tell them not to have cobalt, radiation or chemotherapy, but we are going to teach them God's way to being healthy. The use of drugs is something for the doctor to convince the people, and not the pastor. Ministers need to be taught in the seminaries the Bible health mes-sage. Pastors are demanding us to feed them the health message in the 
Bible. We are not going to give them the same teaching we teach the doctors, chiropractors and other testers and counselors. We will teach them to counsel their people, of all ages, in regard to their health, as 
given in the Word of God. Many ministers today are deeply concerned because of the many 
divorces among the young, and even senior citizens. Many times di-vorces are brought about because the calciums are too low in the sys-132 tem and the individuals are a nervous wreck. Husbands and wives are 
at each other's throat from morning to night. They love each other and 
each one is fighting for his or her life, but they have no one to tell them what to do to correct these calciums deficiencies. Ministers are not to tell the people which calciums to use but they will be informed on doctors trained in this field to which they can send their parishion-ers for help. And this will prevent many, many divorces. In 1972 at 11 o'clock one Sunday night my doorbell rang. It was 
the pastor of our church in a small c ity in Florida. "My wife is having 
a heart attack and is almost unconscious. Please help me quickly," he begged. I got my bathrobe and bedroom slippers on and went with him to the car. His wife was a rather large woman. There was no way at this time 
that any tests could be made, but I quickly examined her hands and feet and found that they were cold, and by this I determined that it was not a heart attack, however, she was having some severe chest pains, the heart had lost its rhythm, and had dropped down into the lower 40's. The nearest hospital was 15 miles away and I was afraid that she would not last to get to the hospital, so I made up an ordinary drink for the purpose of relieving gas on the stomach and told her to sip it slow-ly for 30 minutes. Within 10 minutes the gas began to burp out of her system. In a half hour she had perfect relief, the heart rhythm was back to normal, her feet and hands warmed up, and she felt as if she 
had never been sick. I asked them to come to the lab and I tested her to see what caused the attack of acute indigestion. Her calciums were very, very low, which is one of the causes of acute indigestion. I said to the husband, "You need a test also because there may be a 
problem here that involves both of you." She was in her mid-thirties, 
and in menopause, and he was 38. His test indicated very low calci-ums also. The reason I thought he would have low calciums was that the wife did the cooking and if she was low in calciums then probably he was too. This is what we can call deduction in mathematics. If you 
find one problem in one member of the family, then you should look for it in other members of the family, especially if you find it in the mother and she's the one who does  the cooking. There are exceptions 133 to this rule. Nevertheless, it is ab solutely necessary to go by the num-
bers. 00 not try to draw any conclusions without scientific facts. After I found him low in calciums I said, "Most people that have 
your numbers would have a very difficult time living with a wife be-cause you would be at each other’s' throats every minute," and both of them looked as if lightning had struck them. Then they admitted they were on the verge of a divorce because they couldn't get along with each other. They had three children. I said, "It is very easy to fix this so that you can get along with each other." I had the calciums they needed and gave it to them to take, and in two weeks the nervousness had completely left them and they were deeply in love with each other again. Now whenever either one gets the least bit cross the other runs for the calcium bottle and says, "Here, honey, take your calciums!" I also told the wife what to do so she would not have acute indigestion. So you can see how important it is for people to have a dietary test 
made that will correct the mineral deficiencies in the body. A young married couple can have the same problems with low 
calciums and their life becomes upset and it leads to divorce because the low calciums had so upset the wife's nerves she cannot forgive and forget as quickly as a man, and neither can the man when his calciums are too low. When calciums are normal and all of the numbers sub-stantiate that they are normal, it is very easy to forgive. The lower the 
calciums, the more difficult it is to forgive and forget. During the act of intercourse there is an electrical charge that 
passes between the male and female. Many times when the young couples get married, it takes up to five or six months to learn the real art of intercourse to get the maximum amount of ecstasy that is nor-mally due each other. There are conditions wherein the calciums are too low in one or the other and the sex act is a trying experience, and yet the grace of God keeps them from being irritable. We now come to the problem that the Bible speaks of as fornica-
tion. Those who engage in sex without marriage have problems. There 
is a guilt feeling because they are not married, and they have not had enough practice in the act in order to reach the heavenly harmony that 134 was intended by God for the man and his wife. Sex acts without love 
is very bad because it leaves each tom down rather than built up. It 
causes the sex organs to refuse to accept enough manganese to keep the prostate in a man from having too many delta cells. It also causes a larger count of delta cells in the vagina area and sometimes the breasts of women, and it upsets the entire nervous system because it tears down the calcium contents of the system rather than build up the re-serve energy, and decreases the reserve energy greatly. God made men to have one wife, the wife to have one husband, 
and any breaking of this law is an attempt to break the biological laws made by the Lord Himself. In reality no one can break these laws, they only break themselves on these laws. Consequently, those wom-en that seIl themselves to prost itution far money, or any other reason, 
simply look old at 30. They have burned themselves out for a few un-known reasons, sometimes money. These acts cannot be stopped by legislation. They can only be forced on the black market conditions, and it is up to the ministers to teach the young people the dangers of fornication, and not for the state to try to punish them for their acts. If more young people were taught how much damage is done by 
fornication they would listen and obey the laws because they want to be healthy. I'm not saying that fornication is to be avoided in all cir-cumstances from a biological viewpoint. There are women and men that are said to be over-sexed, and for some reason they do not marry, or their calciums are too low, and consequently they cannot find a partner that suits them enough to be married and live an honorable Christian life. The passion drive is so great in some that it upsets the calcium balance and the more the calci um balance. is upset the weaker 
they become, and the weaker they become, the less faith they have, and the less faith they have, the more undesirable they become as a prospective partner. Many women are in an insane asylum because of this very condition of sinning. They do not even understand their problem. Here again if a pastor knew how to counsel (biological church 
problems) such people instead of telling them they are going straight to hell and would teach them to go to someone who can build up their 135 calciums, probably have them take a Dale Carnegie Course to improve 
their personality, and to have a class in which the facts of life were 
presented to them in a Christian way that many converts could be won to God's Kingdom. , This does not mean that the pastor or the church is condoning the 
illicit use of sex. The Bible says there is none perfect, no not one. It also says that he who does not keep the commandments and teaches man to do so is least in the kingdom of heaven. But he who keeps the commandments and teaches others to keep them is called great in the kingdom of heaven. The church is a hospital for sinners and not a 
clubhouse for saints. Jesus asked the woman when she was accused of adultery as he 
wrote in the sand, "Where are thine accusers?" Then said to her, "Go, 
and sin no more." Jesus did not condemn this woman, neither do I condemn her, but I put these people on the top of my prayer list. Any-one that would put such a person down, does not deserve to be in the kingdom of heaven. It is our sole dut y as Christians to labor until these 
souls are born into the Kingdom. Every soul that is born into the Kingdom is there because of somebody's prayers and never because of somebody's gossip. Please do not say, or quote me as saying, that I condone fornica-
tion or adultery. I do not condone it. However, it does exist so there must be a way that God has to solve these problems' and I believe that much of it can be solved with God's love, our love and biological means. In another chapter you were informed that women use seven times more calciums every day than a normal man, and for every time that the husband goes home and his wife is in a very bad humor and punishes him by refusing him the love, the bed life that he is entitled 
to, that is when he is going to go to someone else and he's going to say, "My wife doesn't understand." (How fortunate he is that his wife doesn't understand or she would throw him over the sandy bank.) Now this does not justify him whatsoever, but it is a pastor's duty to know how to counsel and to take care of his sick sheep. And these people are sick and any shepherd that does not know how to care for his sick sheep is not going to have them very long. 136 The pastors' seminars are to teach the pastor how to feed his sheep 
and how to care for his well and sick sheep so that souls can be Won 
to Christ, and so that the young saints can grow up to be strong, ma-ture saints of God. 137 CHAPTER 19 
OXYGEN 
 
Creation begins with the Garden of Eden and ends with a Garden. As long as anyone tries to bring God down to his size, he will not un-derstand the beauty of creation. Many people think that Adam and Eve were naked in the Garden 
of Eden. They were not naked until the fall. They were clothed in light we are told in the Book of Psalms. One of the interesting things about Adam and Eve as they were clothed in the light, was that they were in the image of God, and the Word says God is "a flaming fire, a flaming torch," and in the Book of Revelation it says when we are translated we shall be "like Him, we shall shine as the sun." One thing about man being created in God's image, we were cre-
ated without any blood in our veins, or we were created without the need to breathe oxygen. If we had breathed oxygen we would have exploded and would have caught fire. According to the mathematics of the frequency upon which we live, the temperature of Adam and Eve's body in the Garden of Eden before the fall was 980 degrees cen-tigrade, because their bodies were anionic. Adam needed a helpmate so God gave him Eve. The word ADAM means "red," for Adam was made from the dust 
of the earth, and it was red. Eve was taken from the rib of Adam, and male and fern ale created He them. Some believe that the tree in the midst of the Garden was the tree 
of sense. I believe it was a fruit. As Eve partook of this fruit she was tempted by the king of all beasts, the dinosaur (serpent) and he was commanded to crawl on hi belly because he deceived Eve. The dino-saur became the snake after he lost his legs and was not in the Ark, so we are led to believe that the flood completed the extinction of the di-nosaur. Adam had a choice of either eating the fruit and having a wife, or 
he had a choice of not eating the fruit and losing his wife. He chose to partake of her sin and have a wife. Adam's sin was: he listened to his 138 wife, instead of listening to God. God made man the head of the 
house, the prince, the high priest of the home. I've never seen a happy home when the father was not the high 
priest of that home. It is his duty to lead his family to the Lord. That's why Abraham was such a great man for he led his family in the ways of the Lord. After Adam partook of the fruit he realized that they were naked, 
and a change had taken place in th eir body chemistry. It changed from 
anionic to cationic. There was now blood in their veins and there was sweat, they would earn their bread by the sweat of their brow, and there was death and they began to die. Any day that one breathes oxygen that day they begin to die. Oxy-
gen is known as the element of time. It is the element that brought time into existence because where there is no time, there is no oxygen or death. You might ask: "If there was day and night is that not time?" No. You can have rhythm without time, but you cannot have time 
without rhythm. Adam had lost his anionic body and was living in the 
age of time, which denotes an end. Time denotes a death. Have you ever had an appointment and somebody didn't show up? This created a problem. Time denotes problems. So here then is another proof that Adam and Eve breathed oxygen because oxygen is known as the sword of all elements. Everything that comes in contact with oxygen begins to break down. Metals begin to  rust and deteriorate. Apples cut 
open begin to turn brown. Man cannot live without oxygen. What did Adam and Eve breathe 
before they breathed oxygen? The Word tells us when God breathed into man the breath of life he became a living soul, and this was while he was still in the Garden. God breathed into Adam the Spirit of God, the Spirit of Love, the Spirit of Divine Supremacy of something that is greater than we can express in any human language. Adam's dominion never used oxygen, neither did the fish of the sea or the animals, nor did the trees need carbon dioxide. They lived on the atmosphere of God. So when Adam fell his whole dominion fell. Before that trees never died and never shed their leaves. 139 Adam was the largest farmer that ever farmed the earth, that is, be-
fore the fall. His farm was approximately five times the size of the 
United States and in Adam's anionic body he was not limited by time or space. He could go great distances instantaneously. This is hard for us to conceive of now. Suppose you wanted to make a telephone call from where you live to the farthest opposite city on the North Ameri-can Continent. You could go there and tend to the business and come 
back quicker than you could get a telephone call through. This gives an idea of how fast the anionic body can move. An anionic body could be all over the Garden of Eden each day. When Adam and Eve began to breathe oxygen their body chemis-
try changed and they had cations, which meant a loss of mineral, which meant a loss of energy. When the earth was young there were minerals everywhere and the people lived to an old age. Adam lived 920 years and Methuselah lived 969 years. When the three Hebrew children, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-
nego refused to bow to the golden image set up by King Nebuchad-nezzar, they were bound and cast into a burning, fiery furnace. It had been heated "seven times more than it was wont to be heated."

Summarize the following text section accurately and concisely. Maintain specific details and numerical information, and use anti-repetition mechanisms:

        There are other factors involved also, but this is a very serious one 
that really upsets the weight. If the pancreas should manufacture too much thyroxine and the thyroid adds potassium to it, then you would have trouble putting on weight. If it doesn't manufacture enough you will have too much weight. Doctors give thyroid extract with the po-tassium for the thyroid gland, which is the worn-out cell of the thyroid gland. The thyroxine is the cell that is not worn-out. Which makes all the difference in the world in the results you get. You may have a case wherein the pancreas is manufacturing the 
right amount of thyroxine, but the body does not have enough potassi-um, therefore, you can be over or under weight from that problem. But probably it would be overweight. But it may be either one. The RBTI test tells us definitely whether this is the cause of overweight, or whether it is something else. The reason the liver is not manufacturing enough glycogen is that 
there are not enough calciums of the right kind present. Therefore the liver doesn't have the material to make the amino 
acids that the pancreas needs to manufacture the thyroxine to control the body weight. For people who are too skinny the thyroid manufac-tures too much thyroxine. For the overweight it doesn't manufacture enough thyroxine. This is easily remedied by the correct diet. Overweight can be a genetic cause. You cannot do very much 
about the weight if it is a genetic thing because the genes at the time of conception determine your weight throughout your life. Many peo-ple will be thin until they reach 50 years of age, or varying ages, and then it's a matter of looking like se nior citizens. Generally people with 
big bones, broad shoulders, big head, and large feet have more weight than they want. But if it is a genetic  normal weight there isn't anything 
you can do about it. 106 If your body is in any range outside of A of the RBTI test you can 
take a diet and bring your body back to range A, and then your body 
weight will drop to its genetic normal. However, it may not be the weight you desire. You will generally look in weight like some of your aunts, uncles, or grandparents, but you'll wish you didn't. Another cause of overweight is a lack of calciums in the diet, 
which can cause extreme nervousness. These people eat, eat and eat. This is not obesity, this is a nervous condition. They eat in order to overcome the nervousness. In eating they are trying to get more calci-ums and yet the body doesn't pick it up. Nature is craving food like an alcoholic craves his drink, as a person who is on pot craves dope. Hence the gaining of weight. Also, we find that by eating it helps to control temper. If these persons don't eat they become very irritable, and very difficult to live with. Other causes of overweight: • People who eat too much fats, foods that are too rich, too much 
carbohydrates, and especially those who eat them late at night (espe-cially carbohydrates) when the body already has a sufficient amount. • Eating too much potato and bread. The starch in the potato can 
be converted very easily into sugar by the liver. A very poor choice of foods can be the cause of overweight. • Not drinking enough distilled water, to regulate the foods. • Slow digestion of food. It digests so slowly until the body chem-
istry is starving all the time. They eat all they can hold, feel stuffed. • Skip breakfast, have a brunch. At noon they have a lunch, and in 
the evening eat a big, big meal. They get up feeling miserable in the morning. They feel like something the cat has drug in, and they can't do one-tenth of the work that they  ought to be doing. They are trying 
to hold a job. They are upset and irritable. The brunch does not even digest. They have their lips poked out for someone to step on, and generally someone accommodates them before the day is over. Their favorite song is that "Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen. " This too can cause overweight: just plain frustration. These are factors that need to be determined before we can pin-
point the cause and effect of overweight. 107 Weight is very easy to control. Anyone who will keep the carbo-
hydrate sugar level between 1 and 2 of the RBTI test, eat a great varie-
ty of foods, especially vegetabl es, and cut down on meats (way down 
on all kind of meats, and do away with the eating of unclean meats), I have never seen one person whose weight wouldn't drop to its genetic level. (By unclean meat I am speaking of those referred to in Leviticus 11: pork and all its products, including ham, bacon, sausage, pork chops, spare ribs, pork roast, salt bacon, cracklings-any part of a hog is unclean to man. All the shell fish, including shrimp, tuna, mackerel, catfish, oysters, lobster, clams, scallops. Any fish without fins and scales is unclean for human consumption. Then there is also the rab-bit, guinea pig, crow, buzzard, bald eagle, muskrat, and snakes. ) The unclean meats digest in a period of an average of three hours, causing more energy to be released than a body can consume. The clean meats digest in an average of 18 hours, giving the per-
son a chance to use the energy as it is made available. The same prin-ciple is putting high-test gasoline in the car that is not manufactured for it. The car will run better if regular gasoline is used. The high-test gasoline will burn up the pistons and the valves. The 
steel and the iron is not tempered for the heat of the high-test gasoline. I am against the abuse of foods. Use temperance in all things. I am not against fried chicken, but  there are people who have it 
every day. I am not against coffee, but there are people who drink 20-30 cups a day. Coffee many times can be an asset to people with ar-thritis or bladder or urinary problems, even weight problems. Coffee with chickory is good for people with low calciums and have nervous disorders. Coffee should be weak enough for you to see the bottom of the cup for it to be a diuretic. Watermelon juice can be a very fine diuretic, providing that you 
are not fat, or do not have high blood sugar. Some people can take wa-termelon juice and have high blood sugar without raising it, but some cannot. There are conditions in which pe ople have high blood sugar and 
also urinary problems. These kind of conditions require opposite diets. Even in a retreat under the very best of controlled diet, it is sometimes 108 very difficult to make a diet that will show immediate improvements 
for the person to recognize the improvement. However, in a retreat the 
testers and the doctors who are supe rvising can tell from one test to 
another whether the person is improving or not. No one is kept in a re-treat whose body does not respond to diet. If the body chemistry does not respond in seven days they are asked to leave because it simply means that the RBTI is not effective for their body chemistry. There is less than one percent of all people tested whose body 
chemistry will not respond to these tests. There are people who come too late to the retreat. But if we can 
keep a person living for 30 days, and their body chemistry continues to improve, and they follow through on the diet after they go home, take the test as instructed, as far as we know, they all get well. There are people who wish to go back into their old way of living 
and break all the rules of health, and commit suicide. One man, who was only in his late thirties, had acute emphysema. He began the RBTI diet in the early summer. It was not necessary for him to be in a retreat. He could do his food chemistry at home. By November there was no sign of emphysema in his lungs. I personally instructed him not to go out in inclement weather. He had a poultry farm. I told him it wouldn't make any difference if every chicken he had died, "Don't you go out in bad weather. " All of the new cells in the lungs were so young, his lungs were about as delicate as a new-born baby. They had not yet built up the reserve and strength of adult cells. I warned, "If you do go out in inclement weather you could take double pneumonia and you could be dead in 48 hours. DON'T GO OUT. " He came the first of December for the test and I warned him again. One cold, wet December day they had some baby chicks come in, it was raining, the wind was blowing, and one of the employees didn't come and he went out to tend to the baby chicks. That night he took pneumonia and 12 hours later was dead. This is suicide. We can't help that. An autopsy was done and the doctors were surprised that there was no emphysema in either lung. 109 Overweight is not the cause of death for anyone. Death results be-
cause the body chemistry is in the wrong range. More people under-
weight, or who have normal weight, die in proportion to overweight people. 110 CHAPTER 15 
FADS OR FACTS 
 
I am often asked, "Is this food or that food good for you. " Many times people think I just do not want to tell them. They ask 
the RBTI testers if this or that food is good or bad for them, and the testers give the same answer: "I do not know whether it is good or bad for you because we do not have scientific facts to back up our an-swers. Until we have the RBTI test made we do not know whether something is good or bad for anyone, unless it is a no-no, such as in-
temperance on anything, or the unclean meats, or the failure to rest one day in the week, or that we make a garbage can out of our stom-achs, or that we are not drinking enough distilled water. " There are some rules that can be followed which will greatly aid 
most adults, or even children, in some respect: 
• Eat the heavy carbohydrates early in the morning, unless you are 
a diabetic and are instructed differently. • Eat the large meal, the heavy meal, in the middle of the day. • Eat a very light meal in the evening. • Do not nibble while you are watching television at night because 
you will likely find the night sleepless. The lack of sleep has never killed anyone, but worrying about sleep does kill. • In the American diet most adults eat too much meat and not 
enough vegetables. Everyone should have a raw (green, leafy) salad before the main course, at least once a day, twice a day is better, if they wish to stay healthy. Salad dressings may be used if desired. • People should drink distilled water systematically, and should 
keep their body in rhythm. It is very important to have meals on time, or within a half hour one way or the other. There should be a time for a bath eaeh day, and a definite time for your bathroom duties. It is a very good idea to brush your teeth after each meal. In doing this your body gets accustomed to a rhythm, and it is ready for food at a given time. But if it never knows when you are going to take food it throws the body chemistry into confusion, which results in a loss of energy 111 because the body is unprepared for the food that you are eating. Occa-
sionally this is all right, but whenev er it is kept up day after day, week 
in and week out, month in and month out, year in and year out, anyone 
is asking for trouble. Even for men it is a good thing to have a definite time to shave. It makes a world of difference in your whole day to keep your body rhythm as near perfect as possible. An occasional break in this rhythm will not do any harm. An oc-
casional big meal in the evening w ill not do any harm, but a continual 
breaking of these rules will affect your health. What foods are nourishing to one person will be poison to anoth-
er. There are genetic reasons why this  is true. There is no one food 
that I know of that agrees with everyone. Some advocate there are combinations of foods that one should 
not eat, such as acids with alkaline,  milk with acid fruit, etc. This is 
taboo. Energy is created by putting acids against alkalines. In 1973 I recommended a diet for two ladies in the retreat who 
were in their seventies. One of them had worked all the days of her life, the other kept house for her. The one who kept house for the other worked tirelessly for her sister. They came to the retreat for a tune-up. They went on a 3-day lemon and water fast. There was no sweetening in the lemon. They went through a mild 
withdrawal. On the fourth day the one who had worked out decided that she could not eat the poached egg and toast for breakfast. The cook could not change the menu without a written order from 
me. The lady said, "Mr. Reams, I am allergic to eggs, I cannot eat eggs. I haven't eaten eggs in forty years. Now you have given me eggs for breakfast. " I got out her record of the past few days, looked it over and said, 
"I see no reason why you shouldn't eat eggs. I want you to eat eggs for breakfast. " She said, "They will make me sick. " I said, "Good. This is the place, if eggs will make you sick, get 
sick. This is why you are here. " I knew she was not allergic to eggs. She did eat the egg and toast. It is very important to know the next 
day what the person ate the day before in order to know what foods 112 would give them the most energy in the shortest length of time. That 
afternoon I saw her and asked, "Well, are you sick. " "No," she replied, "I'm not sick. Those were the best eggs I've 
eaten in forty years. " She wasn't allergic  to them at all. It was all in her 
head. She had an idea eggs would make her sick so had not eaten them, and consequently there are minerals in eggs that she needed and were missing in her body chemistry. A few days later there was a half grapefruit served for breakfast 
and a glass of skimmed milk (non-fat). There again she refused to eat the food that was set before her. This time she came to me and was quite excited. "Mr. Reams," she said, "you are supposed to know about foods and this is supposed to  be a health retreat. Don't you know 
that you can't mix milk and orange or grapefruit. One is alkaline and one is acid and it will make you sick. Don't you know you can't do that. " "No," I said, "I don't know that. Nevertheless, this is what you are 
going to eat this morning for breakfast. " She said, "It will make me sick. " I replied, "Great, go ahead, get sick. Let's find out whether we are 
on fads or facts. Here we go by the numbers. You go eat your grape-fruit, and drink your milk. Then we' ll see if you get sick. Please let me 
know if you get sick. " I didn't see her again until the next morning. When I asked, "Did 
the milk and grapefruit make you si ck. " she replied, "Didn't hurt me 
at all. I felt wonderful all day. In fact, I feel better than I have in years. " Many times people have fads that they think are the healthy way 
to live, and it is about the worst thing they could do. There is only one combination that I know of that I do not recom-
mend and that is mixing pears with celery. It won't do any harm, but the juices of each neutralizes the other and not enough energy is given off to do any good. It is almost like water when you put these two juices together. Some who come to the retreat are surprised and say, "We thought 
you ran a health retreat, and you serve coffee. " 113 When people come who drink 12 to 30 cups of coffee a day you 
cannot take them off of coffee instantly. It may cause them to have a 
heart attack. We take them off of coffee slowly. Coffee is more dan-gerous to stop quickly than cigarettes. I have never known anyone to be harmed by quitting cigarettes instantly, even if they were smoking three packs a day. But I have known people to die that quit coffee in-
stantly when they were drinking 20 cups or more a day. And they did it on their own, it was not on any program that I recommended. They just simply decided to quit. They became so religious in time th at they quit coffee, and all of a 
sudden the heart simply stopped. Caffeine is a stimulant for the heart, and if you are inebriated by caffeine then please do not quit coffee quickly. Take a week or two to quit if you are drinking over a dozen cups a day, and a week if you are drinking less than a dozen. Then drink coffee only as you need it. One cup of weak coffee (you might 
call it Brazilian Tea-you can see the bottom of the cup) is very good for people over forty. "Throw away the frying pan," is a half-truth that is put out as fact. This came about over 100 years ago when the only thing they had to fry foods in was hog lard, or shortening. There is no such thing as vegetable shortening. It is either ve getable oil or hog lard. Hog lard is 
shortening, and if the label reads VEGETABLE SHORTENING, it simply means some vegetable oil and a lot of hog lard. So don't be 
fooled by reading the label (they forgot to put in a comma). Even Crisco, which is supposed to be 100% all vegetable has 
"shortening" written on the can, s imply because some people don't 
know what shortening is, and therefore that word should be removed from the label. Crisco is pure vegetable oil. We need to use more oils and more fried foods than we have been 
taught to use, but use the better grade of vegetable oil. If there were more oil (corn oil) used today in our cooking, especially in the steam-ing of vegetables, and in casseroles there would be less constipation problems. I highly recommend the use of  corn oil, or a high quality ol-
ive oil, for frying or cooking because it is easier to digest than any other oil. A high quality olive oil is tasteless, and if it tastes strong it 114 should not be used. Corn oil does not have the amount of preserva-
tives in it to hurt anything. The vegetable oil that requires a very low solvent, such as corn oil 
and olive oil is very easily digested. In the liver they form gelatin, which prevents the undigested foods from sticking to the lining of the 
intestines and makes elimination easy. Now don't expect the first time you use vegetable oil to get a perfect elimination. This is something that takes weeks and months to get your system to really synchronize to manufacture a sufficient amount of gelatin to afford the body to give a good, clean elimination. If more vegetable oils were used in cooking today there would be much less diverticulitis. There are other vegetable oils like Wesson Oil (peanut oil), Sesa-
me Oil, that are very good if you are very healthy, but if you're not healthy you should use oils using the least amount of solvent possible. Safflower oil is one of the more difficult oils to digest; however, a lit-tle bit of safflower mixed with lemon juice makes a very good salad oil dressing. In the cooking of most meats I suggest using one tablespoon of 
Manichewitz medium dry grape wine to each pound of beef, lamb, or venison, and one teaspoon in cooking chicken. Also, in cooking chicken use some thyme when it comes to a boil (or use the thyme in the water in which the blood is soaked out of the chicken before cook-ing). Thyme takes away the animal taste. We recommend chicken and fish once or twice a week; beef and 
lamb once a week for those who are meat eaters. Meat should be soaked in salt water 12 hours (using twice the 
amount of salt that you'd use if you were salting the meat for cooking) to get the blood out, and then to soak it in fresh water 24 hours. If meat is good, it will be better wit hout the blood, and if it's not good, 
taking the blood out won't make it any worse. Soaking will not tough-en the meat. Adolph's Papaya Meat Tenderizer is excellent to use. Pa-pain from the papaya is a white powder (an enzyme in the juice of the green fruit of the papaya and apparen tly intermittent in action between 
pepsin and trypsin) and tenderizes the meat, making it much more di-gestible. 115 The only difference in the chemistry of raw and cooked meat is 
that the cooked meat gives up the moisture, and as it gives up the 
moisture the tissues become tenderized. Meat should be cooked until well done. Medium rare and rare meat should never be eaten if you want to be healthy. They are much more difficult to digest. There is the idea that fertile eggs are better for you than eggs that 
are not fertile. There is only one cell difference in the fertile egg. For it to make any difference you would have to use at least 2,400 eggs at one breakfast. These facts can be substantiated by laboratory tests and only those 
facts that can be substantiated by laboratory tests are of any lasting value. It is very important to st udy foods and food chemistry, and also 
to read the labels when you buy foods. However, the labels are written by chemists for chemists, and mo st housewives and people who buy 
foods are not chemists, and, therefore, they should use dictionaries more to find the meaning of the words on the labels. Certain foods slow down digestion in most people. Such as 
cheese, which not only slows down the digestion, but also is constipat-ing. However, if you have loose bowels, cheese is an excellent food. If you have a constipation problem and poor elimination, you should go very light on cheeses. One should not eat over two slices of bread a day. If you eat more 
bread than that you are threatening the nutrients and minerals found in other foods. It should be toasted for best nutrients, and it makes it eas-ier to digest. There are people who need a little wine, or Zest Tonic with their 
food. Not before or after, but with their food. People who have cold hands and cold feet all the time should have a little white wine with their food. Zest Tonic is the nearest product ever made to the exact enzymes that are made by the pancreas and is better than wine. Every-one has a built-in whiskey still, or gin factory, so to speak. It turns the excessive sugars into alcohol, and it is the alcohol that determines our 
body temperature. I'm not speaking of fever, I'm speaking of a normal body temperature (98. 6° F). Generally people over 40 years of age are 116 troubled with cold hands and cold feet, or are cold all over. This is be-
cause their pancreas is not manufacturing alcohol. It is not the use of alcohol that is bad, but it is the abuse of the use 
of alcohol, and also the using of the wrong type of alcohol. The RBTI tests will indicate which, and how much, of the four kinds of alcohol is the best for your body chemistry. It is recommended that you use 1 teaspoon of Zest Tonic in four ounces of grape juice after meals and sip it (sit down and do absolutely nothing) slowly for 30 minutes, or 
until your feet and hands become warm. After a few weeks you will notice that each time you do this ther e is a mild headache that will fol-
low. Do not quit using the Zest T onic because of the mild headache; 
however, cut the amount in half and when a ½ teaspoon full, sipped 
for 30 minutes, after dinner and supper, if it gives a headache, cut it down to ¼ teaspoon, and when that gives you a headache, use only a drop or two, and when that gives you a headache discontinue it com-pletely. The pancreas will again be working perfectly. Some people go to a doctor and he says, "No salt. I want you to 
have a bland diet," so people buy salt substitutes, which is just as bad as salt itself because salt substitutes simply means it is not sodium chloride (which is ordinary table salt [Na Cl] ). Other salts can be magnesium chloride, iron chloride, ammonia chloride, potassium chloride, carbon chloride, etc. There are salts that do not contain chlorides in them whatever. Some are ammonia salts, nitrogen salts, and a number of carbonate 
salts. All of the salts cause the blood vessels to dilate, and also the intes-
tines to form diverticulos areas in them, and generally upsets the body. Some people, before they taste the food, empty a salt shaker and yet their salts are perfectly normal in the tests because their body chemis-try is perfect enough that it throws out  the salt and does not retain it. There are other people who do not use any salt, or salt substitutes, and 
yet their salt is dangerously high. Sometimes high enough to cause or bring about an angina heart attack. It is not how much salt you use, it's 
how much salt your body retains. 117 Sea salt is the worst of all salts for people to use. In many people it 
causes a dry, hot tongue and it dries up the saliva glands and the 
mouth is always dry because sea salt contains seven kinds of salt and only the healthiest log rollers (or a man doing heavy muscular work) can use it, and they should use it sparingly. Just because it comes from the sea does not mean that it is better. Some people are so afraid of food additives until the fear of the 
food additive does them more harm than the additive itself. "Perfect love casts out all fear," and there is nothing in the life to fear but fear itself. It has been said that "a coward dies many deaths but a brave man only dies once. " There has never been a time in the history of American foods that they are as safe as now. These additives make our foods safer and have a more lasting result than all the vaccines that some doctors give. There are foods that do have too much additives in them. One is 
ice cream. It has many additives, it won't even melt. It's a smooth, vel-vety, sweet flavor, but it has very little food value. It will rot instead of turning to a whey. Any ice cream th at will not melt, or will not turn 
to a whey, is unsafe to use for food, as it does not have much nutrient in it. Good ice cream will melt into a milkshake, and there are some of these now on the market. Some orange juices are diluted with water and have a preservative 
that makes it dangerous to drink for people with a high cholesterol or a high urea. It is always safer to drink fresh orange juice. I have a very high respect and highly recommend Ocean Spray 
Cranberry Juice and Welch's Unsweetened Grape Juice. If these com-panies keep their products in the future as well as now they will be 
great products in years to come. The unsweetened grape juice has the natural grape sugars in it. I also have great respect for Dole and Del Monte Pineapple Juice. Pineapple, unsweetened, whether in slices or crushed, is very rich in minerals. Most everyone should eat a little pineapple once or more a week 
(unless they are allergic to it). Always use the fresh fruit whenever possible. When buying, always buy the fruit that feels solid and is the heaviest. 118 Be temperate in all things and use a great variety of foods. It's much easier to maintain a higher reserve energy rating by fol-
lowing these principles. 119 CHAPTER 16 
MIN-COL 
 
While in college I became aware of  the great mineral deficiencies 
in our foods. In 1934 I discovered the best of the minerals that is still on the 
market today, Min-Col. This is a derivative from bone meal which is very effective in rebuilding bone structure, etc. Min-Col is the essence of bone meal. There is approximately 60 
pounds of this substance in a ton of bone meal, but man has never learned to get over three or four pounds out of a ton. It is a bit expen-sive. There are 100 capsules in a bottle, so 3½ bottles would be 
enough for a person for a year. Therefore you have spent approximate-ly $50 (unless during pregnancy), besides no cavities, no dental bills and strong teeth and strong bones. What you spend for these capsules decreases what you would have to spend with orthopedic surgeons and dentists. There is no other product on the market today that I know of that 
even remotely equals the high quality  and standard of Min-Col. There 
are some counterfeit substances on the market of very low quality (have not been proven over a period of 45 years). I raised six children with Min-Col with no cavities in their teeth and no receding gums, (plus a good diet) and no days missed from school because of illness. Six-month-old babies should take ½ of one Min-Col capsule daily. Let the mother break it open and put it on the foods. This will cause the child to have strong teeth. They will not have cavities or lose their teeth too early. At four years of age they should take one capsule a day for 96 years, and if they live to be older than that, repeat the dose. Females should take two capsules twice a day during pregnancy, 
assuming they have been taking one capsule a day previously. After the baby is weaned, then go back to one capsule a day. When fingernails tear easily, are rigid, thin, have rough edges or 
have white spots, this is a sign of a need of Min-Col. 120 When the calciums drop too low people become irritable and 
nervous. If you take the wrong calciums, or you are not taking enough 
of the right kind of calciums, then problems will result. We need to keep in mind to be sure to use the right calciums in the 
right amount at the right time. By right amounts you have to consider age, height, weight and diet. Healthy people's diet should be 30 to 35% roughage, or cellulose 
(even in animal feed this should be the same amount). If you will use 35% cellulose fiber in your diet, then you will not have any digestive problems such as constipation. After you have become ill and you have problems in the colon you will find that the liver bile is too dilute to break down the cellulose enough for it to be effective, and the lower the reserve energy, the weaker the di gestive juices and the less miner-
als you get out of the food. You are caught in a cycle of a chain reaction when everything you 
do is wrong as far as correcting your diet. Until you get your body back into range A of the RBTI test everything you eat is against you. So you need help in getting your body chemistry back into range A. This can be done under supervision in less than a week, generally in three or four days. It does not mean that you are well the first day the body chemistry is moved back into range A. It indicates that nature is repairing the damage as rapidly as possible. One thing to remember about the numbers is that a change in one 
number indicates a change in all numbers. Something Iike the Ten Commandments, if you break one, you break all. It is almost impossi-ble to fool these numbers because of cause and effect. "Well, my numbers change quite often," you say. The lower your reserve energy the more effect your diet has on 
your numbers, but if you have a high reserve energy you can eat most anything and it won't change the numbers. The very fact that your numbers are jumping around means that you have a low reserve ener-gy. Avocados and mangos are very high in minerals. Avocados are as 
rich in proteins and minerals as is a beef steak. Mangos are a very good fmit and rich in minerals, but if it is very ripe you need to get in-121 to a bathtub to eat it because it gets all over you. Some people are al-
lergic to mangos or avocados. People having this problem should not 
use them. Remember, there is hardly any food that somebody is not allergic to. Where can you find mangos. You will find that mangos (man goes) wherever woman goes. People with ulcers of the stomach, high delta cells in the stomach, 
colitis, colon pockets, hemorrhoid condition, and inflamed pancreas, and inflamed appendix, should not eat nuts or popcorn at all. It doesn't 
matter how well you chew these foods, little particles collect in the decayed spots or in the ulcerated area, or in the colitis where irritated in the intestinal tract, and can cause soreness, protrusion, swelling, and a lot more suffering than is necessary. Refrain from the use of nuts, with the exception of coconut. People with digestive problems such as just mentioned can use 
Aloe Vera Gel (one tablespoon twice a day, between meals, taken in carbonated drinks such as Collins Mixer, 7-Up, etc. ). Aloe Vera Gel helps shrink hemorr hoids. It is one of the finest 
healing agents for digestive problems. It is good to learn to tell your tongue what you are going to eat, 
whether it considers it good for you or not. Evil spirits can get in the body of even saints at times if they do not eat the proper diet. The evil spirit knows that the weaker the saint becomes physically the less faith he will have, and the less capable he is of making up his mind and the less works he will have. So it is the evil spirit's job to decrease the strength so the works won't increase. The demon is sent into your body for the sole purpose of killing 
you, and when he kills you he does not die, he goes into someone else and does the same thing. Evil spirits in people does not mean that they 
are lost by any means. It is something like the rat being in a hole in a happy home. He is an undesirable visitor. Evil spirits demand the foods that they like, and they will demand it until the person is dead, eating the very foods that are killing the person and making them hate the foods that the person needs to recover his health. It says in the Bi-ble that Jesus cast out evil spirits and the people became well immedi-ately. This is a miracle. However, if you refuse to eat the foods that 122 the evil spirit demands, you are resisting him as is written in James 
4:7, and he will leave your body because unless you obey him, he will 
not stay. For it is in essence whether or not we control our taste buds (or tongue), or they control us. 123 CHAPTER 17 
CASE HISTORIES 
 
There are three classes of people: Those not sick who want to be. Those very sick and they know it. Those very sick and don't know it. This last group is a sad group, and this is particularly true of ath-
letes. At the retreats when moving the body chemistry of young men from range C to range A, they will go through severe withdrawal, probably vomiting like an alcoholic would go through when he is so-
bering up. I have these athletes to tell me, "Mr. Reams, if lever get over this, I'm going to whip you, soon as I get well. I've never been this sick in my life. " They feel so good when they get over the body chemistry change they forget to whip me. The body chemistry chang-es really happen and no drug can cause the body to change from one range to another, only minerals can do this. Let us take the case of a female, age 50, weight 130, height 5'5", 
with the following numbers:

Here we have a person with low urinary blood sugar. If she were 
to go to a doctor he would run a blood test and find the blood sugar 
normal because the glucose would be up, but there is a time each day that this person would just feel they are going to die, being anemic, almost blacking out, irritable, fighting for life and wondering why everything is upsetting. This person's calciums are so deficient that she is a nervous wreck, 
and except for the grace of God, very hard to live with. Also, there is a potassium deficiency causing her to be extremely absent-minded. We would find a very high count of delta cells in the vagina, ovary 
area, and also in the bladder and both kidneys; a very high emphyse-124 ma count in both lungs, and a case of diarrhea. The food is going 
through too fast and the person is feeling very weak. She may have been married many years and become so irritable 
until the husband can't stand her, and if he has low calciums too, di-vorce will probably result. He doesn't understand her condition and she doesn't either. There is a difference between weakness and tiredness and most 
people do not distinguish the two. The athletic young' man would be unduly tired. Tired in the morning, tired at night, tired all the time, but this woman is weak all the time. This type of person must be in a re-treat because unless something is done quickly she is going to be faced with a total hysterectomy because the ovaries are affected. Also, there are delta cells in both breasts. (lf the middle finger were placed 
on the breast it would feel like cord s, it wouldn't be like a lump. ) Un-
less something is done this person would have less than two years to live because the energy rating is down to 30. About all a doctor can find wrong here at this stage would be low in potassium, and a very slight calciums deficiency. If he took a pap smear there would be no blood or indication of anything wrong in the uterus area. The person is probably already over her menstrual period, but the 
calciums are still too low, giving her the effects of menopause: nerv-ousness, cold hands, cold feet, and in general needing a good tune-up. The liver is not manufacturing vitamin D, and without the liver manu-facturing an enzyme of vitamin D the body cannot assimilate calci-ums. This person must be in a retreat, or place where tests can be done every day. The numbers indicate that there is a tumorous area in the brain. The nerves in the brain are not carrying the messages through, not because they are tired, but because there is not enough electrolyte in the system for the messages to go from the brain to the vital organs. The high count of delta cells in the brain would be in the top of the head, toward the front of the brain, in the medula oblongata. This is the part of the brain with which we think and act, where we store in-formation with which we study and memorize. There are 4 percent of the people that do not go through a rough 
withdrawal, and there's no biological reason. The only reason we 125 know is that our instruments do not measure the grace of God, and, 
therefore, there is no biological reason why they should not go 
through just as rough a time as ev erybody else, but they don't and their 
numbers change and within four to seven days we can tell whether or not the body responds. It is impossible for anyone who has not been trained in the Reams 
Biological Theory of Ionization to understand these numbers. There are seven different stages that we go through from baby-
hood to senior citizen, and in each stage these numbers indicate some-thing different. ANY CHANGE IN ONE NUMBER CHANGES THE MEAN-
ING OF ALL NUMBERS, THEREFORE, ANY ONE NUMBER BE-ING PERFECT DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING, UNLESS ALL NUMBERS ARE PERFECT THEN NO NUMBERS ARE PERFECT. In this equation stated above there are two ranges that we have not 
discussed, the B and D range. You can be just as near perfect health or death in the B range and 
the D range as in the A range. If anyone's body chemistry was in any range except A, and after a week's dieting their body chemistry moves into range A, this indicates that nature would be restoring you to per-fect health at the most rapid rate possible. However, if you started too late and your reserve energy level was too low the disease may be overtaking you faster than you can supply the minerals to repair the damage, this can be determined within a 30-day period. Range B is the range that indicates that the person really needs a 
tune-up. The longer this condition exis ts, the more critical it will be-
come. The reserve energy is the criteria of the exact state of resistance of the body. Reserve energy between 18 and 60 years of age should be about 
100 if one is in perfect health. Many people do not reach reserve ener-gy level 100 in their whole lifetime and may live to be in the seven-ties, eighties, or even nineties. There are people who break every rule of health and live to a ripe old age. Again, there is no biological rea-son to explain this, but there is a theological reason. One of the Ten Commandments tells us: HONOR THY FATHER AND MOTHER: 126 THAT THY DAYS MAY BE LONG UPON THE LAND WHICH 
THE LORD THY GOD GIVETH THEE. No one knows except the 
person himself whether or not he or she truly honors (honored) his or her father and mother. This calculation of energy is very difficult, and only those who 
master the subject through the ninth seminar will be able to calculate the energy level. There are people now  that say they have cracked the 
code and that they can calculate the energy level. Believe them not. There is no way to crack a code because there is no code. It's simply mathematics used according to the age, height, weight, sex, race, as well as the specimen readings. In Chapter 7 we said it takes X amount of reserve energy divided 
by time to make a cell in the body if there is reserve energy behind it. You might ask, "What is the value of X. " The value of X is determined on the reserve energy by how strong 
the gastric juices are of one's liver. I have said many times to the RBTI students, "If you thoroughly understand seminar one, then you can go on to all eight seminars by yourself without help, but unless you do understand seminar one thoroughly and memorize the rules, then you will not understand seminar two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight or nine. " I had some of the st udents in seminar five to say, "Now 
I know what you meant when you said if we thoroughly understood the math in the body chemistry which was taught in seminar one that we could carry on through all nine seminars by ourselves, but I did not understand it. " We do not mind you seeing your numbers, keeping your numbers, 
or trying to compare your numbers, but unless you have had the semi-nars you will not understand them. It is possible to work so hard until you will still burn up more re-
serve energy each day than you took in and become more ill with your numbers in range A, and eventually  it will be moving into other rang-
es if you keep this up. Symptoms of a potassium deficiency in the brain show up long be-
fore it shows in the blood, and indicates that the person works like a machine. They never seem to tire. They work long, long hours and 127 very, very hard. Nature seems to tell them that their time is short and 
they've got to get all their work done and prepare them for death. A potassium deficiency in the br ain means that the brain cannot 
accept enough oxygen, and if you have this condition and a low sugar condition, you really have a problem  because the low sugar lets you 
know that there is something seriously wrong, but with the potassium deficiency there can be something seriously wrong and you may not be aware of it. Potassium deficiency shows up in range B, C, D, and E. It can show up in any range, but it is most prevalent in range Band 
D. Let us take an example in range B: Female, age 44, weight 120, height 5'5"

This reading would not indicate a potassium deficiency but would 
indicate the person being a borderline diabetic, that the pancreas was not producing enough insulin. She would be slightly underweight. The salt number indicates that the cholesterol is just beginning to form and that she's much more tired than she should be, and has a weakness mixed with the tiredness which is upsetting her entire digestive sys-tem. The pH readings 6. 80 / 6. 20 would seem almost correct. However, 
the liver is slightly too acid, and th e body chemistry is slightly too al-
kaline which would be creating some gas after eating, with minor burping, but not serious. Because of the borderline diabetic condition, the carbohydrate 
would rise higher at times and drop back down to 5. 5, and if it dropped below 5. 5 she would have to have something sweet or the en-ergy would run out completely. The last numbers indicate the proteins are just high enough that 
the person would be quite tired all of the time, but also indicate that she is in the menopause with hot and cold flashes, and at times, cold feet. This person is in need of a tune-up. 128 The numbers indicate that there is a vitamin C deficiency and the 
longer this condition lasts the greater the deficiency. Also there is an 
anemic condition. Most anemic people are much whiter than usual be-cause the liver is not getting enough iodine, iron or calciums. The reading indicates emphysema. This person is not getting 
enough oxygen. One of the finest things to do for emphysema is to walk a mile a day, but don't just start off and walk a mile the first day. Keep on until you walk slowly, one mile a day, with nothing in your hands. This person's numbers indicate the beginning of collagen disease, 
or a vitamin C deficiency, which begins to affect all of the vital organs and muscles. Many times there is soreness in the muscles, but it is generally travelling. It's in a joint for a day or two and then another joint and oftentimes for a day in th e big toe, indicating that it's gout, 
which it isn't really, it's just very annoying, and not a very serious problem unless this has continued for a long period of time. The long-er this condition exists the more apt it is to cause irregular menstrual cycles, and many times extremely heavy flows, or times in which the cycle lasts much longer. A hysterectomy will not solve the nervous problem and tiredness, but the deficiency can be corrected by correct-ing the diet. The reason for the mineral deficiency, the body is not assimilating 
enough variety of calciums because there is not the resistance between the acids and the alkalines. The body chemistry is out of ratio of one element to another. All foods that we eat are cationi c, with the exception of lemon. This is one reason why we recommend fresh lemon juice water or lemonade: it is nature's form of natural dilute hydrochloric acid, and the liver can take lemon juice when it is taken systematically, and in not too large amounts, and convert it into enzymes with less chemical change than any other natural substance known to man. Then the body begins to take on more calciums and corrects these conditions. The next best substance to use woul d be a man-made substance: hydro-
chloric acid tablets. 129 If the mineral deficiency condition has existed a long time, a per-
son will need both the lemonade and the tablets. Some people are allergic to lemon juice. Those allergic cannot 
urinate, it stops the kidneys from letting the water pass out into the urinary tract. Also, if one has ulcers it bums the stomach so badly the person cannot stand the burning, then they must be taken off of the lemon and given freshly squeezed cabbage juice three or four times a day (this must be used within 20 mi nutes from the time it is squeezed), 
the amounts regulated by the tester, and this will heal any ulcer. I have never seen anyone allergic to cabbage juice that had ulcers. After the ulcers are under control, six weeks to three months, then the person can start on the lemonade and it will rebuild the liver and almost make them look like they have had a bath in the fountain of youth. The D range is a more serious range than the B range because the 
body is extremely too acid, causing extreme nervousness, abnormal fear, and except for the grace of God, almost a maniac. One would have the same problems as in the other ranges but more exaggerated than in the A and B range. An example in the D range could read:  
ͨ. ͱ					ͭ. Ͱͨ
ͭ. ͪͨ
ͯ
ͭ 
 
This condition is one that extremely upsets the nerves. The num-
bers indicate a potassium deficiency. The message is not going 
through from the brain to the vital organs, and it's almost impossible to work. Such a person has an idea that everyone is against them-there's a chip on their shoulder, and they are sick, and yet they don't look sick. They can also be anemic, and if this were a woman, from puberty to age 60, could be very deep in menopause with this number combination. The suffering is extreme because the nerves exaggerate the condition. THE LOWER THE CALCIUMS, THE GREATER THE FEAR. The numbers show: 130 • advanced delta cells in the vagina, uterus, ovary area, and in both 
breasts 
• a high emphysema in both lungs • a cystitic condition • the kidneys are not functioning normally because the liver is not 
manufacturing enough enzymes to maintain the energy needed to re-store the energy used each day. • have to drive themselves to do everything that they do. It would be unsafe for this person to drive a car because the blood 
sugar is so low, and this can cause as many accidents as people who are intoxicated by alcohol while driving. It slows down their emotions. They may temporarily black out, and don't know it until it's too late. ONE OF THE REQUIREMENTS IN OUR DRIVER'S LICENSE 
TESTS SHOULD INCLUDE WHETHER OR NOT THE PERSON HAS LOW BLOOD SUGAR. Urinary tests are more accurate th an the blood test on low blood 
sugar because the urinary carbohydrate reading equals the blood chemistry readings over any 24-hour period. These RBTI test numbers are not easily interpreted. This book is 
written to educate the public to the place that they will go to someone who has trained at the seminars in the Reams Biological Theory of Ionization. Some of the testers are so steeped in fads until it takes two or three 
years to de-fad them, but don't hold that against them. I would rather trust my life to the poorest tester in th e field than to trust my life to the 
use of chemotherapy cobalt or radiation. 131 CHAPTER 18 
RBTI AND PASTORAL COUNSELING 
 
Many calls have come from pastors begging, "Please do some-
thing to help me. I do not know enough about the health message to teach my people how to be healthy. I ha ve just lost with a heart attack 
one of the finest members of the church, and a very heavy financial supporter, in his thirties. He is a great loss to the church and to God's work. " A Baptist pastor in Florida said, "Please, do something to help us. I have just lost one of the fine supporters of our church, only 45 years old with cancer. He had cancer for two years and the cobalt seemed to hasten his death. It breaks my heart to see that. When he was told he had cancer he asked me as his pastor what I thought about it, and I agreed that he should do what the doctors said. Now since we have been enlightened on the dangers of chemotherapy, radiation and cobalt and know it has hastened his death, his wife has left the church. She pointed her finger at my nose and said, 'If you would have counselled 
us correctly, my husband would be living today. ' Reams, you've got to help us. " We are establishing in the very near future seminars to teach pastors how to counsel their congregations on health. We are not go-ing to tell them not to have cobalt, radiation or chemotherapy, but we are going to teach them God's way to being healthy. The use of drugs is something for the doctor to convince the people, and not the pastor. Ministers need to be taught in the seminaries the Bible health mes-sage. Pastors are demanding us to feed them the health message in the 
Bible. We are not going to give them the same teaching we teach the doctors, chiropractors and other testers and counselors. We will teach them to counsel their people, of all ages, in regard to their health, as 
given in the Word of God. Many ministers today are deeply concerned because of the many 
divorces among the young, and even senior citizens. Many times di-vorces are brought about because the calciums are too low in the sys-132 tem and the individuals are a nervous wreck. Husbands and wives are 
at each other's throat from morning to night. They love each other and 
each one is fighting for his or her life, but they have no one to tell them what to do to correct these calciums deficiencies. Ministers are not to tell the people which calciums to use but they will be informed on doctors trained in this field to which they can send their parishion-ers for help. And this will prevent many, many divorces. In 1972 at 11 o'clock one Sunday night my doorbell rang. It was 
the pastor of our church in a small c ity in Florida. "My wife is having 
a heart attack and is almost unconscious. Please help me quickly," he begged. I got my bathrobe and bedroom slippers on and went with him to the car. His wife was a rather large woman. There was no way at this time 
that any tests could be made, but I quickly examined her hands and feet and found that they were cold, and by this I determined that it was not a heart attack, however, she was having some severe chest pains, the heart had lost its rhythm, and had dropped down into the lower 40's. The nearest hospital was 15 miles away and I was afraid that she would not last to get to the hospital, so I made up an ordinary drink for the purpose of relieving gas on the stomach and told her to sip it slow-ly for 30 minutes. Within 10 minutes the gas began to burp out of her system. In a half hour she had perfect relief, the heart rhythm was back to normal, her feet and hands warmed up, and she felt as if she 
had never been sick. I asked them to come to the lab and I tested her to see what caused the attack of acute indigestion. Her calciums were very, very low, which is one of the causes of acute indigestion. I said to the husband, "You need a test also because there may be a 
problem here that involves both of you. " She was in her mid-thirties, 
and in menopause, and he was 38. His test indicated very low calci-ums also. The reason I thought he would have low calciums was that the wife did the cooking and if she was low in calciums then probably he was too. This is what we can call deduction in mathematics. If you 
find one problem in one member of the family, then you should look for it in other members of the family, especially if you find it in the mother and she's the one who does  the cooking. There are exceptions 133 to this rule. Nevertheless, it is ab solutely necessary to go by the num-
bers. 00 not try to draw any conclusions without scientific facts. After I found him low in calciums I said, "Most people that have 
your numbers would have a very difficult time living with a wife be-cause you would be at each other’s' throats every minute," and both of them looked as if lightning had struck them. Then they admitted they were on the verge of a divorce because they couldn't get along with each other. They had three children. I said, "It is very easy to fix this so that you can get along with each other. " I had the calciums they needed and gave it to them to take, and in two weeks the nervousness had completely left them and they were deeply in love with each other again. Now whenever either one gets the least bit cross the other runs for the calcium bottle and says, "Here, honey, take your calciums. " I also told the wife what to do so she would not have acute indigestion. So you can see how important it is for people to have a dietary test 
made that will correct the mineral deficiencies in the body. A young married couple can have the same problems with low 
calciums and their life becomes upset and it leads to divorce because the low calciums had so upset the wife's nerves she cannot forgive and forget as quickly as a man, and neither can the man when his calciums are too low. When calciums are normal and all of the numbers sub-stantiate that they are normal, it is very easy to forgive. The lower the 
calciums, the more difficult it is to forgive and forget. During the act of intercourse there is an electrical charge that 
passes between the male and female. Many times when the young couples get married, it takes up to five or six months to learn the real art of intercourse to get the maximum amount of ecstasy that is nor-mally due each other. There are conditions wherein the calciums are too low in one or the other and the sex act is a trying experience, and yet the grace of God keeps them from being irritable. We now come to the problem that the Bible speaks of as fornica-
tion. Those who engage in sex without marriage have problems. There 
is a guilt feeling because they are not married, and they have not had enough practice in the act in order to reach the heavenly harmony that 134 was intended by God for the man and his wife. Sex acts without love 
is very bad because it leaves each tom down rather than built up. It 
causes the sex organs to refuse to accept enough manganese to keep the prostate in a man from having too many delta cells. It also causes a larger count of delta cells in the vagina area and sometimes the breasts of women, and it upsets the entire nervous system because it tears down the calcium contents of the system rather than build up the re-serve energy, and decreases the reserve energy greatly. God made men to have one wife, the wife to have one husband, 
and any breaking of this law is an attempt to break the biological laws made by the Lord Himself. In reality no one can break these laws, they only break themselves on these laws. Consequently, those wom-en that seIl themselves to prost itution far money, or any other reason, 
simply look old at 30. They have burned themselves out for a few un-known reasons, sometimes money. These acts cannot be stopped by legislation. They can only be forced on the black market conditions, and it is up to the ministers to teach the young people the dangers of fornication, and not for the state to try to punish them for their acts. If more young people were taught how much damage is done by 
fornication they would listen and obey the laws because they want to be healthy. I'm not saying that fornication is to be avoided in all cir-cumstances from a biological viewpoint. There are women and men that are said to be over-sexed, and for some reason they do not marry, or their calciums are too low, and consequently they cannot find a partner that suits them enough to be married and live an honorable Christian life. The passion drive is so great in some that it upsets the calcium balance and the more the calci um balance. is upset the weaker 
they become, and the weaker they become, the less faith they have, and the less faith they have, the more undesirable they become as a prospective partner. Many women are in an insane asylum because of this very condition of sinning. They do not even understand their problem. Here again if a pastor knew how to counsel (biological church 
problems) such people instead of telling them they are going straight to hell and would teach them to go to someone who can build up their 135 calciums, probably have them take a Dale Carnegie Course to improve 
their personality, and to have a class in which the facts of life were 
presented to them in a Christian way that many converts could be won to God's Kingdom. , This does not mean that the pastor or the church is condoning the 
illicit use of sex. The Bible says there is none perfect, no not one. It also says that he who does not keep the commandments and teaches man to do so is least in the kingdom of heaven. But he who keeps the commandments and teaches others to keep them is called great in the kingdom of heaven. The church is a hospital for sinners and not a 
clubhouse for saints. Jesus asked the woman when she was accused of adultery as he 
wrote in the sand, "Where are thine accusers. " Then said to her, "Go, 
and sin no more. " Jesus did not condemn this woman, neither do I condemn her, but I put these people on the top of my prayer list. Any-one that would put such a person down, does not deserve to be in the kingdom of heaven. It is our sole dut y as Christians to labor until these 
souls are born into the Kingdom. Every soul that is born into the Kingdom is there because of somebody's prayers and never because of somebody's gossip. Please do not say, or quote me as saying, that I condone fornica-
tion or adultery. I do not condone it. However, it does exist so there must be a way that God has to solve these problems' and I believe that much of it can be solved with God's love, our love and biological means. In another chapter you were informed that women use seven times more calciums every day than a normal man, and for every time that the husband goes home and his wife is in a very bad humor and punishes him by refusing him the love, the bed life that he is entitled 
to, that is when he is going to go to someone else and he's going to say, "My wife doesn't understand. " (How fortunate he is that his wife doesn't understand or she would throw him over the sandy bank. ) Now this does not justify him whatsoever, but it is a pastor's duty to know how to counsel and to take care of his sick sheep. And these people are sick and any shepherd that does not know how to care for his sick sheep is not going to have them very long. 136 The pastors' seminars are to teach the pastor how to feed his sheep 
and how to care for his well and sick sheep so that souls can be Won 
to Christ, and so that the young saints can grow up to be strong, ma-ture saints of God. 137 CHAPTER 19 
OXYGEN 
 
Creation begins with the Garden of Eden and ends with a Garden. As long as anyone tries to bring God down to his size, he will not un-derstand the beauty of creation. Many people think that Adam and Eve were naked in the Garden 
of Eden. They were not naked until the fall. They were clothed in light we are told in the Book of Psalms. One of the interesting things about Adam and Eve as they were clothed in the light, was that they were in the image of God, and the Word says God is "a flaming fire, a flaming torch," and in the Book of Revelation it says when we are translated we shall be "like Him, we shall shine as the sun. " One thing about man being created in God's image, we were cre-
ated without any blood in our veins, or we were created without the need to breathe oxygen. If we had breathed oxygen we would have exploded and would have caught fire. According to the mathematics of the frequency upon which we live, the temperature of Adam and Eve's body in the Garden of Eden before the fall was 980 degrees cen-tigrade, because their bodies were anionic. Adam needed a helpmate so God gave him Eve. The word ADAM means "red," for Adam was made from the dust 
of the earth, and it was red. Eve was taken from the rib of Adam, and male and fern ale created He them. Some believe that the tree in the midst of the Garden was the tree 
of sense. I believe it was a fruit. As Eve partook of this fruit she was tempted by the king of all beasts, the dinosaur (serpent) and he was commanded to crawl on hi belly because he deceived Eve. The dino-saur became the snake after he lost his legs and was not in the Ark, so we are led to believe that the flood completed the extinction of the di-nosaur. Adam had a choice of either eating the fruit and having a wife, or 
he had a choice of not eating the fruit and losing his wife. He chose to partake of her sin and have a wife. Adam's sin was: he listened to his 138 wife, instead of listening to God. God made man the head of the 
house, the prince, the high priest of the home. I've never seen a happy home when the father was not the high 
priest of that home. It is his duty to lead his family to the Lord. That's why Abraham was such a great man for he led his family in the ways of the Lord. After Adam partook of the fruit he realized that they were naked, 
and a change had taken place in th eir body chemistry. It changed from 
anionic to cationic. There was now blood in their veins and there was sweat, they would earn their bread by the sweat of their brow, and there was death and they began to die. Any day that one breathes oxygen that day they begin to die. Oxy-
gen is known as the element of time. It is the element that brought time into existence because where there is no time, there is no oxygen or death. You might ask: "If there was day and night is that not time. " No. You can have rhythm without time, but you cannot have time 
without rhythm. Adam had lost his anionic body and was living in the 
age of time, which denotes an end. Time denotes a death. Have you ever had an appointment and somebody didn't show up. This created a problem. Time denotes problems. So here then is another proof that Adam and Eve breathed oxygen because oxygen is known as the sword of all elements. Everything that comes in contact with oxygen begins to break down. Metals begin to  rust and deteriorate. Apples cut 
open begin to turn brown. Man cannot live without oxygen. What did Adam and Eve breathe 
before they breathed oxygen. The Word tells us when God breathed into man the breath of life he became a living soul, and this was while he was still in the Garden. God breathed into Adam the Spirit of God, the Spirit of Love, the Spirit of Divine Supremacy of something that is greater than we can express in any human language. Adam's dominion never used oxygen, neither did the fish of the sea or the animals, nor did the trees need carbon dioxide. They lived on the atmosphere of God. So when Adam fell his whole dominion fell. Before that trees never died and never shed their leaves. 139 Adam was the largest farmer that ever farmed the earth, that is, be-
fore the fall. His farm was approximately five times the size of the 
United States and in Adam's anionic body he was not limited by time or space. He could go great distances instantaneously. This is hard for us to conceive of now. Suppose you wanted to make a telephone call from where you live to the farthest opposite city on the North Ameri-can Continent. You could go there and tend to the business and come 
back quicker than you could get a telephone call through. This gives an idea of how fast the anionic body can move. An anionic body could be all over the Garden of Eden each day. When Adam and Eve began to breathe oxygen their body chemis-
try changed and they had cations, which meant a loss of mineral, which meant a loss of energy. When the earth was young there were minerals everywhere and the people lived to an old age. Adam lived 920 years and Methuselah lived 969 years. When the three Hebrew children, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-
nego refused to bow to the golden image set up by King Nebuchad-nezzar, they were bound and cast into a burning, fiery furnace. It had been heated "seven times more than it was wont to be heated. "
