Junk builds up as we put s-h-i-t in it. Then when given the 'okay', it will clear out. That 'okay' are the substances we use to clear it out. This could range from water to algae to various kinds of foods.
SO you see..... The body is the street, on a more diluted level; the bloodstream, or the intestines, or our tissues - which are connected to the bloodstream, our organs, etc...
And when given rain - they wash away

In relation to our bodies not working like the example you gave, I was referring specifically to the part where you said "Too much water and the street itself starts wearing away". I'm not so simple that I can't pick up on a simplistic metaphor, accurate or not.

Apparently you didn't understand, because that's the way it does work. Too much alkaline (rain - wash away) and you die.
Trust me; I've almost died because of that. A few times. And I wasn't stupid to do it.

Rep Power: 100 | | | When in the US Army, during survival training, they taught us to drink our own urine. They even taught us that it may be a good idea to drink your partner's if there were two of you. They said he may have an abundance of something and eliminating it and you may be lacking in it and vice versa.

...or if one of you happened to have any sort of illness, the other would get it. Have we learned nothing from health class about consuming other people's bodily fluids??

That's a given. This was training for survival in extreme circumstances.
It is the Idea of getting something needed from drinking urine.

Health class in high school and many places are full of s-hit.
How would I know this?
because I used to have cancer, grade 5 cystic acne, edema, anemia, scoliosis, many different kinds of parasites and just overall disbiosis (failing health)
And I got rid of many of those without drugs, and the typical 'healthy' foods people think they know are good for them are full of s-hit too. I didn't know I had cancer until 2 weeks ago (since I was 13). And I'm almost 19. It was very small, and systemic. But nevertheless, I still have some of those, and they are going away. In a couple weeks they will completely start to go away ebcause the source of my illness is in my teeth ('silver (mercury) amalgams').

Everytime I explain something to you, you deny it. | “ | In what way did you find out you no longer have it? | ” | |
I still have it a little, just 2 soft - way smaller lumps in my nipples. Remember when I told you about the cysts I had all over? First in my nipples, then on my head, and rest of body. The more I had the more tired I was. Taking a test revealed I had high levels of mercury, aluminum, benzene and isopropyl alcohol in my body. Even 1 degree fahrenheit off 98.6 allows bacteria and parasites to breed. | “ | Are you certain there were no treatments besides food? | ” | |
Yes. The only treatment is organic natural food.
nuff said, I have no desire to speak more about this because so many people here have such a closed and poisoned mind about health. There are some who know more than others; but it's nothing.

That doesn't sound like cancer dude. Cancer is when your cells mutate and multiply out of control eventually obstructing your bodies normal functions.
BTW, the more that you claim you know more than everyone else, the stupider you look (especially after buying into that whole drinking urine thing).

Like I said, it spread. And it did mutate cells. It did make my body act the way it "shouldn't": Rather acting the way it should given garbage to work with.
So yes it did, and yes I still do.

Yo check out #2..... sounds like good info.... just a new perspective thats all. TAO OF
BALANCED DIET:
REGULAR FOOD DIET
FOR HEALTH AND BEAUTY THE EIGHT CAUSES OF WEIGHT PROBLEMS
2. Water Retention The kidneys are the filters that separate waste water from the blood. So the amount of water filtered out depends on how well your kidneys are functioning. Normal kidneys can filter approximately six cups of water in twenty-four hours. (It is possible for them to filter a larger volume but this requires them to work harder, and the increased strain eventually weakens them.) So if your kidneys are normal, you can drink six cups of water a day and you will break even. But if you drink more than what your kidneys can handle―and remember: for most people the limit is six cups a day―this water will remain in your body. It will travel back into the blood stream to be eliminated through the skin by perspiration. However, if you have few opportunities to perspire (cold weather, no exercise, etc.), the water will be retained in your skin. As more and more waste water comes to the area of your skin where water is already being retained, the tissue in that area bloats up to receive the incoming water. This “stagnant” water remains, retaining even more wastes and associated toxins. This accumulated waste water―considered as urine―may stay in this area for a day, a month, even a year or more. After a period of time, this water becomes mucous. [If you wish to see externally what is hidden internally within the body try the following experiment: fill a glass with water and leave it undisturbed; if the water evaporates refill it; repeat this process until a green, slimy build-up appears; and you have recreated for all to see the mucous that is within the body. If this could happen with “clean” water, one could only imagine what kind of odious mucous is formed from wastes from bodily, cellullar processes. And if this makes you mentally sick just from looking, it can make you even sicker physically because it has real, poisonous effects. For a complete explanation please refer to Tao of Forgotten Food Diet: Taoist Herbology, Water Dis-eases.] This mucous is still waste water, only it is in a more solid form. You may think you have added fat, but it is simply mucous which is stuck between the tissues. When this gelatinous substance hardens sufficiently, we call it cellulite. Animal fats such as butter and lard are particular components of cellulite formation. You will not get rid of cellulite by exercise or perspiration alone―only “fresh” water is eliminated by perspiration. The only way is by: 1. Drinking less―limiting your daily liquid intake to less than 6 cups―this is very important.
2. [A no-tool, no-cost yet effective cellulite removal technique is given under Chapter 3: The Taoist Seven Ways of Weight Loss, summarized below.]
When we talk about a limit of six cups of liquid in twenty-four hours, we mean all liquids including soup, beverages, fruits and vegetables. You cannot eat two big bowls of soup and say that you did not drink any water. You can still retain water from that soup, so it must be acknowledged. For example, one patient of mine was overweight, yet he ate only one actual meal a day. The rest of the time he drank fruit juices. He had no idea how many gallons of liquids he actually poured into his body. Because he lived on almost nothing but fruit juice, he received almost no nutrients. Because of this lack of nutrition, he was very weak, constantly fainted, had palpitations of the heart, was short of breath, and had gout! (Chinese medicine indicates that gout is a symptom of kidney problems.) He also had high blood pressure. He had these problems for years, but he never made the connection between his symptoms and his “healthful” fruit juice diet. Often people will go to a restaurant, order a large salad and a drink or a glass of water, and congratulate themselves on their self-discipline. They think they are losing weight, but all they are doing is cheating themselves. Chances are their kidneys are not functioning 100%, so the more water they drink, the more water will be retained in their bodies. It can never be emphasized enough: the more liquids they take in―even in that salad―the more weight they gain. How well are your kidneys functioning? You can determine that by following these guidelines: 1. If your body has cellulite, there is no doubt that your kidneys are not functioning 100%, because you are retaining water. To check for cellulite, check the areas around the buttocks, thighs, belly, and upper arms for flabby or jelly-like tissues under the skin.
2. If you experience rapid weight changes―that is, gaining or losing as much as five pounds in a period of a day or two―those weight changes are definitely retained water, not fat. No fatty tissue can come and go that quickly.
3. If, when you press down with your finger on your arm or leg for a moment, then withdraw it, you see a white impression on your skin which remains briefly, you have water retention. If no water is being retained, there is either no white mark or it disappears immediately. The longer it stays, the greater the water retention problem.
4. If your physician diagnoses your weight problem as water retention, unfortunately the standard medical cure for water retention is diuretic pills. I call these “beat-your-tired-horse” pills. Why? Because your horse (your kidneys) is already “tired”―that is why you are retaining water―and taking these pills makes your “horse” run even harder. Overnight you may lose 10 pounds. But the problem is that when you take these pills, you have to drink more water to wash them down. In fact your doctor will tell you to drink great quantities of water in order to lubricate and “flush out” your kidneys. So you end up taking in (and eventually retaining) as much or more water than you eliminate. And during the process, you work your kidneys even harder, making them weaker and less capable of functioning properly. Ultimately, overworking your kidneys this way will cause kidney disease or even total failure. We live in a “drinking country.” Most people have a high daily intake of liquids, so it is not surprising that we also have a high incidence of kidney disease. But now that you know better, you can escape the norm and stay healthy by decreasing the amount of liquids you drink
