What is the Anti-Mucus Diet?
I have written for you the definitive guide on this interesting diet and its great benefits.
In the first place, we will explain what is the healing system by anti-mucus diet.
It is the system in which a gradual and progressive transition is made from mucus-forming foods to those that do not produce mucus.
Inside our body, those foods that create mucus are broken down into viscous substances.
For example rice, you can cook it until it becomes a very sticky substance, well that’s mucus. As an interesting fact, say that rice is used as a book glue. All a coincidence.
The anti-mucus diet (without mucus) is based on the consumption of all kinds of fruits and vegetables of green leaf, raw or semi-cooked. The method to achieve health in this anti-mucus diet includes intermittent fasting and a progressive change to a diet with foods that do not create mucus as I mentioned.
In itself, the diet brings health benefits to your body assisting to improve an imbalance or health problems. We can state that fasting accelerates such improvement.
Every disease, no matter what name traditional medicine has given to it, is considered “constipation” (constipation or obstruction in the area orf an organ). This statement is argued by Professor Arnold Ehret, creator of the anti-mucus diet.
Step 1: Intermittent Fasting
To begin with I would like to explain a basic fact that occurs at the moment of starting to detoxify our body.
Fact: when you start a detoxification, your body will go through two very different phases.
Phase 1 remove the accumulated toxicity in your body and
Phase 2 eliminates all toxins from your body.
The next thing you should know and understand is: that the fact of fasting intermittently is the key to help your body eliminate toxins since they are better removed and then during the night your body can perform its final cleansing.
With the passage of time, there is an accumulation of toxins in our body in tissues, cells, organs. The best way to remove these toxins is through proper nutrition with green leafy vegetables, fruits, and raw sprouts.
What happens when these types of foods are ingested?
They start to take the toxins out of the cells and are sent to our bloodstream, this is Phase 1 mentioned above, but they must be eliminated, right? Now Phase 2 comes into operation, through our disposal bodies.
So far our whole process is very simple.
Why does fasting help to detox?
You have to understand a fact, which is obvious and you can observe yourself.
It is a fact that when the body is performing digestion, our body is not able to take care of the elimination of toxins by itself since the main organs are occupied in the general digestion.
Only when this digestion is over and the organs are free is when detoxification takes place. But there is a problem and it is that shortly after starting this action. Usually, we are hungry again soon and if we can’t control this sensation and eat again, we will cut these elimination tasks.
The value of intermittent fasting
The value of intermittent fasting and its benefits are very simple to explain.
With its application, we will achieve a good balance between the periods of eating food and those of removing and eliminating toxins.
The important key points here are:
- Make meals that are not superabundant.
- Allow several hours between meals.
- Get enough sleep, being optimal 8 hours a day to get more elimination hours.
- Eat a good dinner in advance before going to sleep. So when you start to sleep you start a correct debugging.
During the night, sleep is the best moment of fasting for our body since it is neither working or exercising nor doing digestions and therefore it can be totally focused on the extraction of toxins using all the elimination organs, such as colon, liver, kidneys, lungs, and skin.
That is why when performing a liver cleanse fasting is vital.
Brief description of what intermittent fasting is:
It is the action of extending the process of purification of toxins by not eating food for more hours than usual, these toxins have been dumped into our circulation thanks to the raw consumption of vegetables, fruits, and sprouts or with the help of food supplements.
Pieces of Advice
1. You should not eat a diet with only fruits, vegetables or sprouts if your level of intoxication is high.
Its excessive consumption could lead to the putting of toxins in circulation in an amount superior to the one that your organism can manage. Be careful, we don’t want you to throw in the towel quickly because of unwanted symptoms that I will mention later.
2. Consume a balanced amount of fruits and vegetables to dump an optimal amount of toxins.
* Note: a problem presented by vegans is that they dump a large number of toxins in circulation and this degenerates into what is known as “latent disease.”
3. Fasting for one or two days helps give your body enough time to perform a restart and eliminate maximum toxins are highly recommended.
More important data…
- The elimination functions and their ability to manage the flow of toxins in the blood circulation are determined by the purity and ability of the elimination organs.
- The consumption of raw fruits and vegetables is essential for your health and helps to increase the cleansing ability of your body.
Step 2: Toxin Cleanse, Anti-Mucus Diet.
Remove excess of toxins
The vitality of an organism is recovered directly proportional to the release of obstruction caused by toxins, therefore only by eliminating toxicity, his health recovered.
Excess of toxins that must be removed is the reason for a decreasing vitality and not its lack of nutrients.
Organism Cleanse
You cannot clean or repair a body without or through fasting, this is under the heading of “self-healing” process.
The more toxic an organism is, the worse it will consume nutrients from food.
Foods low in toxins
Fruits and certain raw foods are great for our bodies. But take note that they are only good when they have low toxicity. Their positive effects are seen when our bodies are completely detoxified.
The correct Fasting
Fasting occurs when the body is not engaged in digestive work. It is the condition in which our body allocates all its energy to purifying and repairing work, so in English, it is called Fasting which means acceleration.
When the body has the slightest opportunity, the body uses its energy to repair itself, so that the seven-hour or eight-hour night fast is not enough to release the accumulated toxemia for years. Eating a lot and often the body spends all day in digestive work no matter how much we sleep for eight hours we don’t have enough time for our body to detoxify.
There are detoxification phases
Detoxification has two phases: In the first phase, the toxins are removed from the cells and tissues and therefore enter the bloodstream, in the second phase the elimination organs expel these toxins out of the body gradually and through the process of Elimination and with fasting.
Role of purifying foods
Purifying foods put toxins into circulation but only fasting leaves filters unoccupied so that they can be eliminated.
Only in moments of fasting the elimination filters have enough strength to work in elimination tasks, therefore if purifying foods are consumed without allowing the body to fast totally or partially, the only thing we guarantee is a large number of slags put into circulation. Many of which will not be able to be eliminated by our disposal filters.
A diet exclusively based on raw fruits and vegetables is not healthy in the current poisoning conditions, the reason for this is that they are very energetic foods and with great capacity to remove toxins from our cells and tissues by putting them into circulation for elimination but our Filters are not prepared to eliminate large amounts of blow toxicity and that is why raw fruits and vegetables should be consumed in a moderately conscious and rational manner.
Step 3: Toxin Elimination
The body of any normal person on the street, due to the food it carries, will not be able to manage the large accumulation of toxins and ends up becoming a true dump of toxins.
“Realize that they are toxins that we accumulate year after year throughout our lives.”
They are toxins that we receive from abroad, but above all toxins that we create in our interior through a diet based on unhealthy mixtures and incompatible foods.
Completely eliminating this accumulated toxemia with an anti-mucus diet that gradually removes the toxins can take between 15 and 20 years to reach a state of minimal or virtually zero toxemias.
By taking years and years intoxicating your body this is the reality. We hear in the media by many experts that our body is going to detoxify with a fruit diet or with a fast of a week or a month that is completely false. We need years to completely detoxify our body.
Of course, the simple act of stirring with each fast is the way.
But everything is to start with intermittent fasting and soon one realizes the benefits and changes on a physical, mental level and we could even say spiritual.
What is a purifying crisis?
It is a series of symptoms that occur when the body has put toxins in circulation to be eliminated. It is an effort of the organism to take out the slags stored in it.
Some common symptoms of detoxification can be:
- Headache
- Dizziness
- Nausea
- Diarrhea
- The descent of vital energy
- Bad mood
- Nervousness
- The feeling of a hangover (like when we drink alcohol).
When you have a purifying crisis we must think that it is something good and logical. However, you see people thinking that it is a bad thing and what they do is that they drink a beer to remove the hangover or start eating and then that ends with detoxification or that stage of fasting and then we cut the detoxification at that time.
Only by purifying the organism of toxic substances can vital energy be recovered.
In Nutraceutis we can design a personalized program so you can progress gradually and without problems.
He always advised to go gradually, there is no need to run and it can be done very easily.
Our interest is to help improve your body, with foods or supplements with great energy input and capable of removing toxins, such as alkalizing foods or purifying supplements which have the power to circulate many toxins, and that is why These crises or these cleansing symptoms can occur.
It is important to know what a depurative crisis is so that when one happens, you know that it is something that can happen and continue with the process and not stop it.
Another aspect to take into account is when I observe a person who has strong or too prolonged symptoms of purification crisis, this is not a good indicator and it means that the body has circulated a number of toxins greater than the client’s ability to eliminate.
Recall that the filters, in general, are very saturated and if there is a large number of toxins in the circulation they will not be eliminated. This should be graduated to avoid major inconvenience.
Circulating toxins that cannot be eliminated will remain in the blood and will be reabsorbed, and thus intoxicating you again.
Therefore, it is better to do things with a correct gradient so as not to fall into the error of generating a toxin load that degenerates into more intoxication and more acidification with the corresponding unnecessary discomfort.
We will moderate a little the taking of supplements and purifying foods so that the person does not accelerate too much in the purification and is gradually purifying.
We must address each case carefully and give the person the necessary recommendations. In my opinion, slight and transient symptoms are normal but if the person has too long or severe symptoms, this means that this level is above the purifying possibilities of that person and we will begin to slow down and be more moderate.
In our recommendations, we will always follow the client very closely until he is well again and be clear that all this has to be done gradually step by step.
The importance of alkaline foods in the anti-mucus diet.
The way to get the purification is gradual is by making a diet based on alkaline and neutral foods and with very few acids. This prevents the purification crisis from occurring since the neutral ones although they are much healthier than the acids slow down that purification process a little more and make the purification to be carried out in a balanced way.
Too much-accelerated purification acidifies the body in excess and part of those toxins released will be of new reabsorbed as I mentioned since the filters are not able to manage that flow to eliminate them.

For example, the combination of some of our supplements such as l or Alkimia (essentially algae and minerals) which favor the dumping of circulating toxins and the application of intermittent fasts that facilitate elimination is the key to success.
After years of work in naturopathy, I realized that I was wrong in many things, but finally, I can say that where one should put all his effort is in the continuous cleansing through intermittent fasting.
The anti-mucus diet is a viable and functional technique for your health, but it is also for your family, friends, and acquaintances, and why not, to anyone on the street that you do not know but want to help, teach these data that are so important to have good health.
Give your body time to eliminate toxins and to do this simply, you must apply intermittent fasting, a healthy diet and certain supplements that accelerate if you wish. This data is simple but very powerful.
The data has been explained here as functional after its proven effectiveness. In its responsibility to put them into practice, Nutraceutis is a mere transmitter of information that understands that these are the correct and true data or knowledge, to achieve a healthy body.
