hot baths
lymphatic congestion
lymph system
[2008]
[Aajonus]
Lymphatic baths are taking an hour to an hour and a half bath at 101° to 103° to melt down the lymph. You got a lymph glands and lymph nodes, most of your lymph glands are here, all around in here, here and here. These are your main lymph gland networks. You have lymph glands all over in small amounts, everywhere else.
And a lot of little bitty lymph nodes all over. The body uses those to clean waste products out of the body. When we've been on a lot of margarine and vegetable oils in our lifetime, that hardens in the lymphatic system. So, that hour to an hour and a half baht will melt just a little layer at a time. So, it's like having a cold stick of butter in a glass and little by little, it melts as the heat works in. That's the way it does in the lymphatic system.
You'd have the pineapple, the coconut cream, the little bit of butter, the little bit of dairy cream with that pineapple, and coconut cream mixture right before you get into the bath.
[This was changed to have the mixture earlier in the day a few hours before the bath]
[Attendee]
Do you have that every day if you do 30 minutes baths every day.
[Aajonus]
No, it's only for the long baths.
You're jumping the gun, let me get to those answers.
So, when that melts at that high temperature, like an herbivore, an animal that eats vegetable oils has a body temperature, 101° - °. It will keep vegetable oils thin and fluid.
In the human body at 98.6° and lower, vegetable oils harden and crystallize. When it gets jammed in the lymphatic system, like hard wax and crystals, it will not dissolve, unless we raise the body temperature, 101° - 103° degrees for an hour to an hour and a half.
Any hotter than that, you're gonna waste. Now in the first print of my book there was a typo, it said 110° instead of 101°. So, people were cooking. So, it was years before I noticed that, like seven years before somebody said something. And every time I read it, I read 101°instead of 110°.
[Attendee]
So, you got to get a thermometer and actually measure the water?
[Aajonus]
Yeah, it's good. I use a mouth thermometer, stick that in water and test it.
So, when you get out of the bath, after an hour to an hour and a half, it will be just a thin layer, melted and flowing. So, you get up and take a walk, you bundle up, stay hot. If it's hot like this, you still bundle like it's snowing outdoors and you take a slow, easy 45 minute walk.
So, what that does is that rushes the pineapple coconut cream mixture into that lymphatic system, so that when you cool down it will already have dissolved and prevented from thickening again. So, layer by layer through many years takes care of it.
But just to give you an example of how it works, I had a patient who was 68 years old, who was dying of prostate cancer and complete failure of the thyroid. Put him on the diet, he was on the diet for about two years. Functioning normally, but still in retirement. I finally talked him into taking the hot baths. So, he built a hot tub in his backyard in Bangkok, and he started taking the bath every day instead of two times a week. But because he was retired, he could sleep a lot and deal with that toxicity.
If you need to function, you don't want to do it every day, you do it every three to four days only. So, in three months of doing it every day, he completely became a new man. Everything was flowing properly, he started an international company and now he is working 14, 16 hours a day and 72 years old. 73 now.
So, big difference.
[Attendee]
Is that formula in your book?
[Aajonus]
The formulas in the book.
[Attendee]
What's the name of it?
[Aajonus]
Lymphatic congestion formula, under lymphatic baths.
[Jim]
It's a good time to dry off after the bath before you walk?
[Aajonus]
Yes, you get out of the bath. You keep the room hot wherever you are. You pad yourself dry, take about 10 minutes, cuz you're gonna be dripping and then put on long underwear and then heavy clothes on top of that, so you perspire into the long underwear.
[To my knowledge, these walks were deemed not necessary. They are important, but many people couldn't do them. Instead of walking you can sit in a hot room, but walking is best]
[Attendee]
What if you don't take a walk?
[Aajonus]
You're just going to go back to where you were before.
[Attendee]
So, it's not gonna actually get that layer out?
[Aajonus]
Just gonna thin it and then that's it.
[Attendee]
So, like the guy in Bangkok, you could do it every day if you wanted to?
[Aajonus]
If you have time to rest and recuperate.
[Attendee]
You just have more detox?
[Aajonus]
Well, he did a lot more detoxifying. After his walk he did nothing, but sleep for four hours and it was up eating for several hours and then back to sleep again.
Waking, eating, going to sleep, waking, eating, going to sleep for three months that way.
[Attendee]
How about riding bikes?
[Aajonus]
That's fine, but you don't wanna do something vigorous. You've already been in a hot bath. You don't want these exhaust yourself. It's supposed to be a mild slow walk, just to keep the circulation pushing, not speeding.
[Attendee]
What about Tai Chi?
[Aajonus]
You can do Tai Chi. Yeah, it's fine. As long as it's a constant movement, it'd be fine.
[Attendee]
Well, if the person's used to like a higher level of exercise. How about a bath shorter than 45 minutes, 15 minutes?
[Aajonus]
It's the amount of flow through. The lymph system is not the bloodstream. Rushing the bloodstream through isn't gonna make the lymph go faster. The lymph has its own slow movement no matter what you.
[Attendee]
Okay, so slow cardio for a half an hour?
The nervous system will flow faster, the blood will flow faster, but the lymph system never flows fast unless you're really hot.
