On True Recovery
Dr. Diaa El-Awady's philosophical blueprint on the human body, the biological reality of fasting, and the path to zero medication. Written by the claimant, Diaa El-Din.
The human body, in its origin, is characterized by health and integrity. This is the first clause: the human body's natural state is health and integrity, and it will remain in this condition as long as there are no violent external inputs or influences. Complete fasting from any inputs perfectly achieves this state, which inevitably ends with the breaking of the fast upon the first input. If you could maintain this state, you would be in the state of the body that never falls ill.
The body's default state is perfect health.
Every input to the body carries harm, just as it carries benefit — which is keeping this body alive and nourishing it with what is necessary to remain active and functioning. As long as the input leaves waste that settles inside you, it carries harm; waste that needs to be excreted is the harm itself. Thus, the waste that needs to be expelled and that the body needs to get rid of is harmful. Therefore, any food you eat carries harm just as it carries the benefit of keeping this body alive or promoting growth in the case of children.
Inputs provide life, but also waste. Settled waste is harm itself.
Every input to the body is treated by the body as a foreign object. Consequently, the human body has a reaction, and this reaction is one of three types:
Every input is a 'foreign object' triggering a defensive response.
The body suffers daily, repeatedly and continuously, in dealing with inputs that are difficult to digest, leading to recurrent intestinal obstructions, even if incomplete.
The daily burden on the biological system operates across four tiers.
This suffering manifests as constant pressure on a body that is continuously resisting. This leads to physical and psychological symptoms that occur consecutively and are interconnected, yet the relationship between them seems distant. This led to them being named 'Syndromes.' The distancing of causality in these relationships led to diagnostic ambiguity. The suffering increases as these symptoms transform and drift due to the interaction between the chemicals entered — from toxins in food — alongside medicinal (drug) inputs.
Constant pressure leads to overlapping symptoms grouped as 'Syndromes.'
Regardless of the variation in symptoms and disease names, they must be accompanied by a chronic defect — this is one of the conditions — in the digestive system, even if the complaint began in childhood. This is exacerbated by the presence of acidity inhibitors (PPIs) introduced to the markets approximately 20 years ago (starting around 2005), beginning with 'Control' as the godfather and what followed. It must not be ignored. With the progression of disease and the appearance of cancers, the role of acidity inhibitors in the emergence of these symptoms must not be overlooked.
Blocking stomach acid disables the body's primary digestive mechanism.
The 'Circle of Treating What is Not the Cause': Heartburn, blurred vision, dry mouth, kidney pain, frequent urination — all attributed to a hiatal hernia, high cholesterol, high triglycerides, or the presence of uric acid. These are what I like to call 'Agreed-upon Myths,' because we are the dissenters, the clever ones.
Treating Cholesterol, Uric Acid, or Hernias is treating the symbol, not the cause.
Changes in clinical laboratory findings and investigations are indicators of a change in the body's strategy during states of chronic pressure and provocation. There is no definitive evidence that they are the cause of the accompanying symptoms or changes. The 'Cause,' for your information, is that which, when removed, the phenomenon, problem, or symptom ends. The insulin I take while the sugar remains high means the sugar wasn't high because of an insulin deficiency. The reflux of a hiatal hernia: the hernia is treated, yet the reflux remains.
The true cause is defined strictly by one metric: removing it ends the symptom.
Inference through laboratory markers — like Sugar, Acetone, HDL, LDL, Urea, Creatinine, minerals, and electrolytes — and linking them directly to the nature of food is superficial and entirely incorrect. Why? Because these markers are identical in all mammals and egg-laying creatures that possess a liver. A crocodile has a liver, a chicken has a liver, mammals like a cow that eats grass and a leopard that eats meat and drinks blood — all of them have sugar, acetone, HDL, LDL, urea, and creatinine. The rise or fall of these values is fundamentally related to the change in the body's state as a nervous, hormonal, or allergic-immune reaction, regardless of the type of input.
Lab fluctuations are stress responses, not food reactions.
The body's ability to recover and heal — through replacement, substitution, manufacturing, synthesis, resistance, prevention, formation, and differentiation — is integrated, harmonious, and infinite until death. Your health, relatively speaking, equals your ability to avoid toxic inputs.
Zero Inputs = Infinite Health. A Way of Life. Zero Medicine.
