And the fruit, you said have that for 30 days, the strawberries, raspberries, and watermelon. Is that like a fruit meal and then after the 30 days?
[Aajonus]
Yes.
[Attendee]
What, what do I do? Do I replace it or?
[Aajonus]
Well, I want to see how you are at that time.
[Attendee]
But you're not gonna be here.
[Aajonus]
You can email me. You have the same symptoms, then you stay on it.
[Attendee]
Just continue. Okay. And when you go to the hot springs, you're talking about the special sport formula you gave to me, but there's no pineapple before that, right? You don't take the pineapple drink If I'm going to the hot spring?
[Aajonus]
Well, if you're going to a health spa like a Glen Ivy and you're gonna spend the whole day right, it's best to take a lot of watermelon.
[Attendee]
Just watermelon?
[Aajonus]
Watermelon helps you perspire better than any other food.
[Attendee]
And do you take cream with that?
[Aajonus]
You can. Yeah, that's what I do. Let's say I'm gonna have a round slice of watermelon that's about this thick and this round, that'll fill me up. That's about a cup and a half, I don't eat the hard, nothing around where the seeds are, but I eat all rind and red from the, where the seeds begin down, unless it's a really young watermelon, not sweet. Then I eat the whole thing.
[Attendee]
And you have some cream with that you said?
[Aajonus]
Yeah, take probably three tablespoons of cream before I have that much.
[Attendee]
Before you get into the hot springs.
[Aajonus]
Oh, I'll do this before I get into the springs, and then while I'm there, I'll eat a little bit of watermelon all throughout the day.
Like every hour I'll have a 1/2 cup or more, depending on how much I'm perspiring.
[Attendee]
Sometimes you can't tell cuz you're in there.
[Aajonus]
I know. Well, in the mud pool, it's lukewarm. It's maybe 102°, 101°. That doesn't really cause much perspiration I jsut go in with the mud and then I'll go from that. I'll clean off to clean the mud and I leave it in the tub. I don't get out and shower it off. I leave it in that pool so I can get it muddier, so when I go back in, it's muddy.
In fact, when I'm the first one there, when I used to go there mm-hmm. I would start packing mud in that. I would start mixing it in the water while it's on me and keep getting you wet.
[Attendee]
Oh, you were that guy that I saw there doing that.
[Aajonus]
May have been, who knows. So, I get it very muddy and then I spend maybe an hour, an hour and a half in the mud bath and then I would go into the hot springs.
[Attendee]
Yeah. I don't go, I go to Warner Springs and I like it out there a lot. The pool is sometimes 101° - 104°.
