The
HAY DIET Made Easy
A Practical Guide to Food Combining
It's been a long project - I spent
two years researching it, two years writing it, and it took another two
years to get it published. I hope you like it!
How did I come to write it? Well, having been mysteriously tired all my life, I became increasingly exhausted, especially after the children were born, and I accumulated an endless list of mental and physical symptoms - yet no-one could find anything wrong with me! Nothing the doctor knew, and nothing I had ever learned myself as a health visitor could help. I somehow struggled through the day for the next ten years, and like so many others in this situation I took antidepressants and got hooked.
Then from my own reading I discovered the answers - they were straightforward and they lay in my diet. Attention to the diet could have avoided the need for drugs. I discovered so many things I could do to help myself that I've never run out of ideas and the answers I found are in my book. I've put as much help as possible on every page.
My recovery began when I discovered the Hay diet in 1988. It is my lifeline; I dare not depart from it. It has taken me several years to rebuild my health the natural way but very gradually I was able to reduce the drugs and now most of the symptoms have gone. Unbelievably, these days I only need about six or seven hours sleep, not ten or twelve any more!
What is the Hay diet?It was introduced in the 1930s by a Dr. William Hay, who became so ill himself with high blood pressure plus serious heart and kidney disease that he was not expected to live. In desperation he turned to the work of the naturopaths and made an astonishing recovery - just by eating naturally - and he lost fifty pounds of excess weight into the bargain!
The Hay diet works on the ancient principle that given the right conditions, the body will heal itself. All we have to do is give it the raw material to do the job and take away everything which hinders its work. That means a completely natural wholefood diet with at least fifty percent fresh fruit, vegetables and salad. Highly processed foods like white flour and sugar have to go because they block the healing process.
This is also a Food Combining diet - concentrated proteins like meat and cheese are taken at separate meals from carbohydrates like bread and potatoes - and I did find it difficult to work out exactly what to do from all the books. I could see it was time someonw wrote 'The Hay Diet Made Easy'. When I came to teach it I was astonished at the rapid and powerful relief it can bring. I have witnessed some remarkable recoveries.
I was not surprised to find that, like me, nine out of ten people on every Hay diet course were suffering to some extent from medically unrecognised illness, and most had no idea why they felt unwell. Treatment is safe and simple and it works fast - so read on...

Well With The HAY DIET
Food Combining & Good Health
The
Hay diet is supernutrition, a
nature cure, and you are on the mend from the moment you begin
it. It can help most illnesses because it puts the body in a position
to heal itself. Natural food is the raw material it needs to put itself
right. Mystery illness can therefore benefit as much as any other. Problems
which baffle medical minds do not so easily defeat the wisdom of the body.
I dedicate this book:
To those whose many genuine complaints are being dismissed as 'all in
the mind'
They may well be suffering from the current epidemic of medically unrecoginsed
illness, unaware that simple and effective treatment exists.
To those who do not think of themselves as ill but would like to feel
better
To slimmers who cannot lose weight however little they eat
To anyone who feels constantly ill and cannot find out why
To anyone with unexplained mental and nervous problems which do not entirely
respond to conventional medicine
To anyone wishing to reduce their dependence on prescribed drugs
To those with any problem at all which conventional medicine feels you
have to live with
And to those who have tried both conventional and complementary medicine,
but whose problems stubbornly persist
A sick person is seldom asked exactly what he is eating and drinking. Anyone who does ask, as I do, receives some surprising replies and it becomes immediately obvious why that person is ill. So here is a simple introduction to what you can achieve by changing your diet. It is based on an understanding of how the body works and how we can work with it to assist our own recovery. There is so much more you can do for yourself if you are willing to work hard on your diet.
This book contains help for:
Low blood sugar
candida
food intolerance
chronic fatigue and M.E.
Allergic children and any who are mysteriously unwell
Unexplained mental and nervous problems of all kinds
- food cravings - chocoholics - problem slimmers
Anyone who wants to gain weight
Those wishing to reduce the risk of serious illness, of cancer or of heart
attacks
These conditions also respond particularly well to the Hay diet:
Migraine, asthma, eczema, acne, joint pains and arthritis, maturity onset
diabetes,
Chronic pain of all kinds
Indigestion, heartburn, gastric and duodenal ulcers, hiatus hernia, constipation,
diarrhoea, irritable bowel, gall bladder pain
Stomach, bowel and digestive problems of all kinds can be substantially
relieved by food combining.
And if you have tried just about everything
- could mercury be your problem?
Did you know that the mercury from dental amalgam fillings leaks out and
is affecting large numbers of us in many different ways? It can cause
absolutely any symptom in the book!
Get Well With The HAY DIET is available
from any bookshop.
It is distributed in the same way as 'The Hay Diet Made Easy' (see below).
There are translations in progress.
If you have been on the Hay Diet for some time and are still looking for answers:
Gradually incorporate more fresh fruit, raw vegetables
and salad into your diet,
up to at least 75%.
It will enable you to slim a lot faster and in the healthiest possible
way.
It will further accelerate natural healing
It can be done in many delicious ways!
