Dairy products are advisable in virtually any form, however, I personally believe that milk shouldn’t be overused. Of meat only lean veal, poultry and fish are allowed. Sugar must be completely eliminated and replaced with bee honey, honeydew preferably. Moreover, fruit juice and still water should be drunk in large amounts.


see page 42 of Vilcacora report

After talking to Constance at IPIFA Peruvian Institute of Andean Phytotherapeutic Reasearch; she adds that red meat should be eliminated, juices should be encouraged, especially fresh and;

We also recommend a non-toxic diet (as natural as possible), ACCORDING TO TOLERANCE: well-balanced meals with fiber-rich foods, such as fresh fruit and vegetables, whole grains, seeds, wheat, oat, almonds; also broiled fish as health condition improves, but WITHOUT red meat (including hot dogs, smoked or cured meats), nor processed refined foods, fried food, canned food, milk, chocolate, and sugar (only some honey), refined salt (better sea salt) and carbonated drinks. As you know, daily increase of Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) protects against oxidative spoilage and boosts immune functions, as supplements or preferably as FRESH JUICE. Teflon and aluminum pots and pans, as well as microwave oven, are not advisable.
