Conrad Hilton Thanks Bragg for His Long Life

Con­rad Hilton Thanks Bragg for His Long Life!

When the world’s most famous hotel mag­nate, Con­rad Hilton, was 80 years old and lay­ing on his hos­pi­tal deathbed, we gave him a new lease on life by intro­duc­ing him to The Bragg Healthy Lifestyle. He fol­lowed our instruc­tions and dis­cov­ered a whole new healthy, vibrant lifestyle! He was soon healthy, happy and fit, enjoy­ing life! He even remar­ried at 88 years young! He remained active in busi­ness (half days at his Los Ange­les office) to almost 100 years young! Mr. Hilton, at 88, was quoted in a Peo­ple Mag­a­zine inter­view as say­ing, “I wouldn’t be alive today if it wasn’t for the Braggs and their Bragg Healthy Lifestyle!” Here is a photo of the grate­ful hotel founder with Patri­cia his healthy lifestyle teacher.

Healthy Heart Keep Your Cardiovascular System Healthy and Fit at Any Age, Dr. C. Everett Koop

Healthy Heart keep Your Car­dio­vas­cu­lar Sys­tem Healthy and Fit at Any Age: Dr. C. Everett Koop (excerpt) — Patri­cia Bragg

Bad Nutri­tion – #1 Cause of Sickness

“Diet-related dis­eases account for 68% of all deaths.” — Dr. C. Everett Koop

America’s for­mer Sur­geon Gen­eral and our friend, said this in his famous 1988 land­mark report on nutri­tion and health Dr. Koop & Patri­cia in Amer­ica. Peo­ple don’t die of infec­tious con­di­tions as such, but of mal­nu­tri­tion that allows the germs to get a foothold in sickly bod­ies. Also, bad nutri­tion is usu­ally the cause of non-infectious, fatal or degen­er­a­tive con­di­tions. When the body has its full nutri­tion quota of vit­a­min and min­er­als, includ­ing potas­sium, it’s almost impos­si­ble for germs to get a foothold in a healthy, pow­er­ful blood­stream and tissues!

What a per­son eats and drinks becomes his own body chem­istry. – Paul Bragg

Good health and good sense are two of life’s great­est bless­ings. – P. Syrus

Salad Dressings & Salads: Healthy & Delicious

Filed under: Bragg Book Excerpts,Patricia Bragg,Uncategorized — admin @ 10:36 AM

Salad Dress­ings & Sal­ads: Healthy & Delicious

Today, many peo­ple make the mis­take of con­clud­ing that salad is only let­tuce. More adven­ture­some cooks will go so far as romaine, and per­haps cab­bage once in a while; but, after that, often they have exhausted their full reper­toire of salad-making. Nature has almost as many vari­a­tions of the salad leaf as she has vari­ety in plant life. As a nation, we have trained our gro­cers and veg­etable stores into car­ry­ing only the more com­monly accepted types of salad leaves; but it is pos­si­ble at some mar­kets to pur­chase more vari­ety of deli­cious leaves, and per­haps you can also grow a small gar­den of deli­cious herbs and salad plants for your own kitchen gar­den. Exam­ples of some of these leaves are the unique sor­rel, fen­nel, and cresses – they are delec­table sal­ads in them­selves. Also, the esca­role, dan­de­lion greens, nas­tur­tium leaves, ten­der young leaves of the buck­wheat, purslane, chicory, and the many vari­eties of let­tuces and romaine, can make up a nutri­tious vari­ety of healthy, deli­cious sal­ads. We have many fas­ci­nat­ing health sal­ads for you: veg­etable sal­ads, fruit sal­ads – but the king of all sal­ads is the green leaf salad with its cousins, the wild and cul­ti­vated sea­son­ing herbs. Do not cut your veg­eta­bles too fine, as the cut por­tions, when exposed to air, lose vit­a­min con­tent. Serve as fresh and crisp as pos­si­ble, not only to pre­serve the fresh taste and appear­ance, but for nutri­tional preser­va­tion as well.

Milk Is Not a Good Source of Calcium

Milk is Not a Good Source of Cal­cium — These Foods Are !

Nearly every­one has the idea that the prob­lem of cal­cium defi­ciency will be solved if they just drink milk. This is not com­pletely true. In the first place, prac­ti­cally all the milk in the U.S. is pas­teur­ized, which robs and greatly reduces avail­abil­ity of milk’s calcium.

Dr. Harold D. Lynch – famous author, researcher and physi­cian – said recently almost fanatic use of milk as a bev­er­age has added more com­pli­ca­tions than ben­e­fits to child nutri­tion. He fur­ther states milk may often be a pri­mary cause of poor nutri­tion in children!

This might be due to the fact that pro­por­tion­ate amounts of Vit­a­mins A and D and phos­pho­rus must be present in the metab­o­lism for the proper absorp­tion and uti­liza­tion of cal­cium by the body; another rea­son why proper nutri­tion and a bal­anced diet are so important!

Whole milk is a car­rier of large amounts of sat­u­rated fat (cho­les­terol) and can lead to ath­er­o­scle­ro­sis. This food is just for cow’s babies. It’s not for humans if they wish to main­tain a healthy heart for a long life!

Ben­e­fit From Nat­ural Foods Rich in Calcium

There are some very fine sources of cal­cium other than milk. Sci­en­tists feel raw bone­meal is one of the best, as well as eggshell cal­cium, oys­ter shell cal­cium and bone mar­row cal­cium. We pre­fer the cal­cium found in kale, corn, beans, veg­gies and soy tofu. In fact, as Dr. Lynch and Dr. Neal Barnard point out, all nat­ural foods con­tain appre­cia­ble amounts of cal­cium. This chart shows some of the many foods that con­tain large amounts of cal­cium you should include in your diet.

Common Cold and the Body’s Miracle Cleansing Process

Com­mon Cold – The Body’s Mir­a­cle Cleans­ing Process

Any one day in win­ter, over 30 mil­lion Amer­i­cans suf­fer with a bad cold. Adults aver­age five to six colds per sea­son, while chil­dren and teenagers often get dou­ble that amount. The body wants the tox­ins out!

Are these colds nec­es­sary? How do peo­ple catch cold? What causes the com­mon cold? Med­ical sci­ence has learned how to con­trol many dis­eases that are far more seri­ous, but remains baf­fled by the com­mon cold. Is the cul­prit an unfil­tered virus? Is it brought on by sit­ting in a draft, get­ting chilled, or get­ting one’s feet wet, as is often sug­gested by moth­ers through the ages?

Colds Clean Out Mucus and Toxins

While the the­o­ries are many, there seems to be only one sure fact – peo­ple who are in per­fect health don’t catch colds. My dad spent a year liv­ing in the Arc­tic among the Eski­mos. He never had a cold, and nei­ther did they. He had the same expe­ri­ence in the South Seas, in the Balkans, among the nomads of the Mid­dle East and with the native tribes of Africa. The com­mon fac­tor among all these peo­ple is that they breathe pure air, eat sim­ple nat­ural foods and get plenty of exer­cise and sleep.

By fol­low­ing this same basic healthy lifestyle, my Dad remained free of colds even in the midst of civ­i­liza­tion. Based on his research, he found that the com­mon cold is Mother Nature’s and God’s method of detox­i­fy­ing the body. Most peo­ple are shal­low breathers. And most live on the unhealthy diet of devi­tal­ized foods. Tox­ins start accu­mu­lat­ing and clog­ging their bod­ies. That’s why it’s impor­tant to live a healthy lifestyle and fast!

The Body Self-Cleanses, Repairs & Heals

When the tox­i­c­ity of these accu­mu­lated poi­sons, mucus, etc., exceeds the body’s tol­er­ance, the nat­ural vital forces set up a mir­a­cle cleansing-healing (com­mon colds) cri­sis. The body induces a rise in body tem­per­a­ture (fever) to burn up the many tox­ins, while oth­ers are elim­i­nated by a heavy dis­charge of mucus from the nose, mouth and throat. If the toxic over­load is heavy, there may be a dis­charge of mucus from the bow­els and per­haps diarrhea.

Instead of being alarmed, be grate­ful that your body’s nat­ural Vital Forces are strong enough to take com­mand and get rid of the tox­ins that you have accu­mu­lated! Don’t try to block this nat­ural heal­ing process with antibiotics.

Work with Mother Nature. Breathe deeply and fully to sup­ply your body with the great puri­fier: oxy­gen. Rest and fast. Do a dis­tilled water (8 glasses daily) fast or try a fresh juice fast. It is best to take only liq­uids dur­ing this cleans­ing and heal­ing cri­sis. Your amaz­ing body will fight for its life against a great deal of abuse. When you fol­low Mother Nature’s and God’s Laws and live The Bragg Healthy Lifestyle you can cre­ate a pain­less, tire­less and age­less body.

Colds and Oxy­gen Are Great Cleansers

If you catch cold, remem­ber you are pass­ing through a nat­ural cleans­ing and heal­ing cri­sis. Heed the warn­ing – fast! Mother Nature is telling you: You have allowed your body to become poi­soned with toxic wastes and maybe by overeat­ing. Work with me now by fast­ing – to cleanse your body of these tox­ins. Once this cleans­ing cri­sis has passed, now keep your body clean by fol­low­ing my Laws of Nat­ural Living!

Often peo­ple tell us that they have a bad case of the flu. When we ask where they got it, this is what we hear –The flu’s going around. Everyone’s got it.” We then ask, Where can we find it? We’d like to meet some flu germs! They stare at us in utter amaze­ment. To help them out of their men­tal con­fu­sion, we explain that when you breathe fully, live a healthy lifestyle and eat nat­ural foods, free from all refin­ing, pro­cess­ing and chem­i­cal addi­tives – it’s then that you can build a pow­er­ful immu­nity against germs, viruses and illness!

Oxy­gen Cleanses and Nourishes

No germ can live in freshly squeezed organic orange juice because there is noth­ing in pure orange juice for it to feed on. All germs, regard­less of their names, are scav­engers! They feed on toxic decay­ing mat­ter. It’s our per­sonal opin­ion, based on expe­ri­ence and research, that a 100% healthy, nat­ural foods diet – in com­bi­na­tion with the enor­mous amount of pure oxy­gen pumped into the body by the vig­or­ous breath­ing exer­cises taught in this book – help pro­vide a nat­ural immu­nity against most infec­tious dis­eases and germs.

Oxy­gen is not only the ener­giz­ing fac­tor which makes it pos­si­ble for the body to elim­i­nate the putre­fied mat­ter on which germs thrive, it also exter­mi­nates the germs. As you deep breathe more oxy­gen into your body and nour­ish it with organic, healthy foods, you give your body a greater abil­ity to ward off germs and infec­tions! When we prac­tice Super Power Breath­ing, we increase our car­dio­vas­cu­lar res­pi­ra­tory power. We purify and ener­gize our blood­stream to carry more pow­er­ful, revi­tal­iz­ing oxy­gen to the heart and entire car­dio­vas­cu­lar sys­tem. Start today – you will ben­e­fit greatly !

Blood — Your Miracle River of Life

Filed under: Bragg Book Excerpts,Health Articles,Health News — admin @ 8:00 AM

Blood – Your Mir­a­cle River Of Life!

(Excerpt from Bragg Super Power Breath­ing Book — pg.10)

The blood cir­cu­lates in a aver­age net­work of around 60,000 miles of blood ves­sels that reach every cell in the body, from those of the heart itself to the top of the scalp and to the tips of the fin­gers and toes. The aver­age indi­vid­ual has about five to six quarts of blood cir­cu­lat­ing through­out their vast body net­work. Dur­ing rest or inac­tiv­ity the blood makes one round trip per minute. Dur­ing stren­u­ous activ­ity or exer­cise, how­ever, it may make as many as eight or nine round trips per minute in order to sup­ply the nec­es­sary fuel and oxy­gen for increased energy, and to help remove waste prod­ucts and tox­ins from the body.

The blood ves­sels that carry blood from the heart are known as arter­ies. Those that return blood to the heart are veins. Both vary greatly in size, and are orga­nized just like streams, brooks and creeks flow­ing into a river, which then join a larger river.

The small­est blood ves­sels are called cap­il­lar­ies. They are so tiny that most are vis­i­ble only under a micro­scope! Through these cap­il­lar­ies the last of the food and oxy­gen is given off and the return trip is made via the veins, which carry the oxygen-depleted blood and toxic wastes back to the heart for purifi­ca­tion. En route to the heart, how­ever, most of the water-soluble wastes are trans­ferred to the kid­neys for elim­i­na­tion through the urine. Poi­so­nous car­bon diox­ide gas, a major residue of ener­giz­ing oxi­da­tion, is brought back to the heart to be expelled through the lungs.

Food for Thought

Filed under: Bragg Book Excerpts,Patricia Bragg — admin @ 1:45 PM

Food For Thought

Kind­ness should be a frame of mind in which we are alert to every oppor­tu­nity: to do, to give, to share and to cheer.

– Patri­cia Bragg

Every man is the builder of a tem­ple, called his body. We are all sculp­tors & painters, and our mate­r­ial is our own flesh, blood and bones.

– Henry David Thoreau

Fruit bears the clos­est rela­tion to light. The sun pours a con­tin­u­ous flood of light into the fruits, and they fur­nish the best potion of food a human being requires for the sus­te­nance of mind and body.

– Alcott

The men who kept alive the flame of wis­dom, learn­ing and piety in the Mid­dle Ages were mainly veg­e­tar­i­ans.
– Sir William Axon


The purest food is fruit, next veg­eta­bles, then grains. All pure poets have abstained almost entirely from ani­mal food. Espe­cially a min­is­ter should eat less meat, when he has to write and give a ser­mon. They say the less meat, the bet­ter the sermon.

– Amos Bron­son Alcott

When you sell a man a book you don’t just sell him paper, ink and glue, you sell him a whole new life! There’s heaven and earth in a real book. The real pur­pose of books is to inspire the mind into its own think­ing.

– Christo­pher Morley


There is much false econ­omy: those who are too poor to have the sea­son­able fruits and veg­eta­bles, will yet have pie and pick­les all the year. They can­not afford apples, yet can afford tea and cof­fee daily.

– Health Cal­en­dar, 1910


If fam­i­lies could be induced to sub­sti­tute the healthy organic apple, sound, ripe and lus­cious, in place of white sugar, white flour pies, cakes, can­dies and other sweets with which chil­dren are too often stuffed, doc­tors’ bills would dimin­ish suf­fi­ciently enough in a sin­gle year to lay up a stock of this deli­cious fruit for a whole year’s use. Through the law of cause and effect we choose our des­tiny through life. More­over, we are our own prophets, for we con­stantly project our future state by the seeds we plant in our present.

– Cheryl Can­field

Arthur Reed, from Oak­land, CA lived to be almost 124 years old, the old­est per­son in the nation. His vir­tu­ous habits for longevity: “I let go of three vices in my life. I don’t drink. I never smoked or chewed and a few years back I stopped gam­bling for­ever.”  He rode his bicy­cle to work every day and retired from Phoenix Iron­works just before he turned 114 years old.
