My full protocol will shock you
Actually, this is the shortcut … seriously
I’ve been sick a long time. But sick in the way most people nowadays are sick, i.e. not really thinking of myself as sick. “I’m healthy!”, we all insist. And we believe it unless someone scratches beneath the surface. Then a laundry list of “minor” complaints often spills out.
Now, I have to say before we go any further that it is actually better not to think of oneself as “sick.” Those who think they’re fine do much better in terms of morbidity and mortality than those who think they’re not, regardless of the medical “facts.” That’s because of one of the main points we hope to make in this article, that diseases aren’t necessarily harmful to people. They’re just messages and maneuvers after all (more on exactly what that means shortly).
It’s usually the interventions upon interventions upon interventions that hurt you. As well as the toxic nocebo effects of associating with well-meaning doctors who don’t actually know much about the body, why it manifests disease, or how to cure it.
My “Messages”
As for me: I was significantly overweight with some mild psoriasis, chronically constipated, had weirdly weak urine flow without prostate problems, suffered occasional reflux, occasional insomnia, got angry and irritable often, couldn’t control my sweet tooth, recently began feeling a small umbilical (belly button) hernia developing, had mild brain fog (e.g. occasional word finding difficulty) that’s been very mildly worsening for years now, and had a lot of difficulty changing myself in ways I wanted to change.
I had a few signs most people wouldn’t even know are indicators of ill-health like skin tags and a few lipomas, which may indicate insulin resistance (which 99% of people likely have in the modern west). Ridges on my nails which likely indicate a micronutrient deficiency. Developing bags under my eyes that could indicate stress on the liver detox pathways. Beard quickly turning gray during the pandemic, which certainly indicated a lot of stress (I was working 15 hour days for months in a row at one point). Plaque that rapidly built up and remained on my teeth despite regular brushing that indicates a disruption of the oral microbiome.
Most people will surprise themselves if they sit down and list out everything they can think of. It might even take a couple days as some things have become so normalized you don’t even think of them anymore. If you had fast forwarded from 10 to 40+ in a few days it would have been shockingly dismaying and would likely have either led to despair or determination - i.e. to fix yourself up ASAP and no matter what. But we don’t fast forward through the slowly-boiling-frog stage. It takes decades, so we just accept early aging, unnecessary dysfunction and an untimely death.
Changing Course
Changing course requires two necessities: 1. discovering there is another option that you’re convinced will work, and 2. finding the motivation to implement it.
There is another option. I’ve seen it with my own eyes. My partner Hakim Shabaz has implemented it with 100s of patients (mostly those about to die since it is so demanding), and quite impressively on himself. He went from being in his early 30s and looking like he was going on 50, to actually going on 50, but looking like he’s in his early 30s. Along the way his health radically improved in myriad ways.
Finding motivation. This is trickier, but relates to number 1.
Motivation to do something requires belief that it will work. Belief requires education and perhaps most importantly avoiding miseducation (or deprogramming from it). Miseducation is all around us all the time. Nearly every time you interface with the world you’re misinformed in some way, because the very paradigm of reality that everyone uses as the basis of everything they think, say and do, is way off. This is particularly obvious and harmful when speaking to anyone in the modern medical system about anything. None of them understand the first thing about disease (see next section).
Once you begin to believe, you still have to strengthen your belief. This means continuing to expose yourself to information that affirms it, and avoid information that detracts from it.
As your belief grows you continually remind yourself of the tremendous benefits of implementing what is admittedly a somewhat difficult lifestyle overhaul that will continue for months, but will pay dividends not only for the rest of your natural earthly life, but into all of eternity.
Pray and plead for that lightbulb moment that is so rare, and powerful, when suddenly you feel the hand of fate reach down and nudge you onto a different course.
Once the moment arrives, commit wholeheartedly and stay the course without “cheating,” which has led to the utter failure of so many people who were finally headed in the right direction. It can literally take years to come up with the motivation to try again. Ask those who’ve been there, like me. Learn from my mistakes as well as those of others, as well as your own.

The First Thing About Disease
This is why you avoid “healthcare” like the plague.
Because, honestly, it’s not even what most people who are “awake” have started calling it, i.e. “Disease Care”.
It’s actually Disease Producing.
The first thing to know about disease is that what you see is not your problem. It’s usually the solution to your problem.
Disease is at least two things: 1. a message and 2. a maneuver.
It’s a message in at least two possible ways: direct and indirect.
A direct message means that there’s a physical toxin and/or pathogen in some tissue of your body, and your immune system is fighting it off, rooting it out, which creates symptoms. Just as if criminals had taken your family hostage and a SWAT team had to come save them. They might try negotiating at first, but if things escalate and there’s no other choice they kick down your door and go capture or kill the bad guys. If you systematically refuse to allow SWAT to take care of these situations then criminals will start doing the same to more and more families throughout the city. Eventually other crime will explode as well. Lawlessness will reign and eventually you may have to bring in the military to get it under control. If you then prevent the military from doing the job, eventually you may have a full on revolution. If you still prevent the military from stepping in you lose the city, state or even the entire country.
An indirect message means that there’s an emotional root cause issue, like childhood trauma that may be manifesting as an allergic disorder triggered by usually harmless items like common foods. In both cases the body isn’t making any mistakes, it’s responding appropriately to help you deal with the real root cause of your problem, which is hurting you physically or emotionally.
It’s a maneuver in that the symptoms and signs themselves are helpful in mitigating the harm from the underlying root cause. Lab work which is almost universally misunderstood by modern medical practitioners and patients offers many examples. High ferritin levels, the storage form of iron, are usually due to inflammation or infection. So the high ferritin is not a problem to be fixed in and of itself. Many pathogens can make use of iron to hurt you, so the body locks it away from them, which raises ferritin. If you somehow force your body to lower ferritin, it would just make matters worse as you would be less well equipped to fight off the invading force. Out of range lab values are just secondary signs of your body doing the best possible thing for you in the situation you’re in. Reversing the helpful reaction to your problem may help with certain symptoms like fatigue due to anemia from low iron, but it doesn’t help you in the medium or long term, it only ends up harming you far more as the underlying problem proliferates and comes back to bite you harder.
So, both mainstream and almost all of alternative medicine are way off-base and really just a false dichotomy. They both assume the body is doing the wrong thing because it's either broken or confused. It's not either. It's your first, best, and often only real physician.
You have to get to the underlying, deeper layer of causes which are not physical or energetic, they’re psycho-spiritual, and they manifests the physical means of disease-making superficial physical causes like toxins, pathogens and lack of nutrients through the energetic weakening that is manifested in your physical organs, by depleting those organs of nutrients and making them susceptible to invasion by toxins and pathogens that cause disease.
Which again is not a bad thing, because it's just a message pointing you in the direction of your real problem.
Pain is Good
Pain is the most important message, because it protects you from what would harm you which is another way of saying it keeps you alive. Because what harms in small quantities, kills in large doses. You can get a large dose all at once, or have it build up over the decades until it finally finishes you off, which is what happens to most people.
Pain will begin as mild discomfort. A bit of reflux, occasional constipation, some rough menstrual periods, random headaches, mild allergies, etc.
If you understand what’s going on you’ll pay attention, not cover it up with symptomatic medications, address the deeper root cause issues and get back on the right track.
Pain is meant to course correct you.
If you took off on a trans-Atlantic voyage with the right heading, but then you never again checked your instruments to be sure you were still on the right course, you might end up in South Africa instead of the south of France.
Pain is feedback from your body and soul. It means you’re headed the wrong way. Check your instruments and get back on track.

The Real Roots of Disease
Consciousness comes first, and it manifests the physical world. Consciousness has a connection to the Divine, a sense that there’s something greater than itself, an ultimate creative force. Consciousness has various other aspects of itself like the ability to believe certain things about reality, be motivated to do things for itself, the ability to plan, the ability to feel emotions, the ability to balance the needs of disparate parts of itself, and finally the ability to manifest its various parts as energy and ultimately physical substance.
Different “higher” aspects of self relate to different parts of the energetic and physical body. The heart balances between the organs. The liver relates to anger. The kidneys to fear.
As mentioned above, when these or other emotions are imbalanced they place strain on their respective organs. Over time that strain wears down the organs, and as they get worn down they become less able to do their particular jobs. The organs also become less able to protect themselves from the buildup of toxins and from unusual proliferation of our own microbiome or invasion by foreign pathogens. The microbiome includes not only bacteria, but fungi, viruses, and may even include some parasites in some people. Fungi are nature’s toxin cleanup crews. They do the same inside our own bodies. When toxins build up they proliferate to bind, sequester and protect our tissues from them. Various other elements of the microbiome have their own reasons to proliferate on our behalf. Beneficial bacteria for example often aid tremendously in fighting off foreign pathogenic bacteria, something that might become necessary when the immune system within a particular tissue can no longer do its job adequately. The not so downside to all these maneuvers is that there will often be some uncomfortable side effects, or pain signals sent because of them.
Focus on the Meaning of the Message
To understand how to reverse disease and get truly healthy again, we have to know what not to do first.
We can’t just focus on the superficial symptoms and signs.
Everyone who's studied anything about alternative health probably understands that to some extent, but what most don’t understand is just how many things fall under the superficial category.
Really everything physical is superficial, including all those “risk factors” that you’re warned about and urged to “control” like high blood pressure, high blood sugar, insulin resistance, obesity, and even “stress” itself.
None of these are root causes.
There’s really only one root cause.
You are the root cause of not only all your illnesses, but of all your problems in life.
You have to fix you before it’s too late.
What that means is that imbalance at some level of your being will always be manifested as a problem of some sort in your life. As above, so below, as within, so without. This is a law of reality that must be manifested if our existence is to have any meaning. The purpose of existence is to better know ourselves, and thereby the Divine reality and incrementally perfect ourselves in order to draw nearer to it. The universe itself only manifests what we need in order for us to do so, which means it shows us our own faults in order that we may correct them.
If we tend to be too angry, the universe and everything within it will respond to us in a certain way that will reveal that that excessive anger is a problem - e.g. by giving us various symptoms stemming from some form of liver dysfunction (or its downstream effects on other organs), or making our lives much more difficult than they would otherwise be.
We may struggle to deal with the anger until perhaps we realize it’s actually based on fear of being harmed and lashing out against that perceived threat to protect ourselves.
And we may struggle to deal with that fear until perhaps we realize that it’s based on a misconception about the nature of the universe and what’s in it, believing that what is manifested within it is even capable of harming or benefiting us of its own accord.
At a more practical level, most people are afraid of other people, until they realize that those other people aren’t actually out to get them. That the threat they perceive from others is just a reflection of their own selves. That the sullen expressions or scowls they notice on other’s faces are just a reflection of their own expressions and feelings. What’s underneath the surface of others is ultimately a mystery but assuming the best of them produces the best interactions and outcomes.

How to Heal
Some animals just sit there like plants and whatever they need from the world comes to them. They don’t lift a finger or move an inch, yet they eat, drink and procreate. These strange creatures include sponges, anemones, corals, barnacles, and sea squirts (yes, these are all classified as animals).
coral reef
Coral is a strange animal
Despite what you may think, human beings may also be numbered among them, though it’s certainly not our natural state.
We’re meant to be creatures of action, and action is required for us to grow and change. Our spiritual, mental and emotional sides are deeply entwined with our energetic and physical bodies. What moves one, moves the other. And we’re the ones that move both. However it’s easier to move the physical than it is the energetic, emotional or intellectual. We can’t simply drift in the waves of this world and expect to do any meaningful work on our thoughts, emotions, and spirit. Interacting with others and with the events of our lives is what reveals us to ourselves. Changing how we interact is what shows us that we’ve actually grown and aren’t just fooling ourselves into thinking that we have. You can weep and beg forgiveness in the middle of the night for what you did wrong, but the only way to know for certain that you’ve actually changed is to be in a similar situation again and find out if you commit the same misdeed you did before.
So the way to change is to do something different that you’re sure will work and keep score so you can’t lie to yourself.
That’s why the first step in a real healing protocol is to get a plan of action from someone who really knows what they’re doing and can help you heal anything (that’s my own teacher and practice partner Hakim Shabaz, click below to learn more).
My 5 Week Results
Strangely enough right from day one I noticed a big improvement in mood, reactivity, and irritability. I was suddenly able to make headway on self-improvement, such as keeping score against myself in order to stop getting selfishly angry, i.e. stop acting like a spoiled 2 year old brat whenever things didn’t go my way. This must have been a placebo-type effect linked to finally deciding to make long overdue, big, hard, sustained changes - I committed to doing it strictly for at least 2 months straight (ensuring there would be no travel plans during that time necessitating skipping key protocol components).
My skin started clearing up immediately and I started losing weight, which continued throughout at a rapid rate of about 0.7 pounds per day, for a total of about 25 pounds, which brought me down into the normal BMI range for the first time in years. My teeth felt much cleaner within days, almost all the plaque disappearing.
Redness in my face went away quickly. I have a few patches of psoriasis which became 95% less inflamed and almost stopped scaling entirely within days.
After a couple weeks the largest skin tag suddenly got inflamed, swelled and was tender for a couple days, then promptly shriveled up and just fell off. A week later a smaller one did the same. Around the same time I passed some roundworms and then started seeing the liver flukes in every bowel movement / enema (they look like floating white date pits, or thin cloves of garlic 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch long).
Image
These are the liver flukes. Mine all look whitish like the one on top.
After 3 weeks I realized I was also probably passing hydatid cysts.
Image
(If instead of doing all that I had been impatient and just taken some anti-parasitic medication I might have killed so many parasites so fast that my small intestine and gallbladder may have become blocked requiring hospitalization and even surgery.)
In the 3rd or 4th week I noticed that the urine flow had started improving almost all the time.
In the 5th week I started noticing moments of greater clarity, and improved mental functioning, especially when in the hot bath, where I experienced a lot of creativity, perhaps because I get particularly relaxed inside.
This was reminiscent of a period of self improvement I went through decades ago during med school when I got very lean for the first time in my life. What I noticed then and even more so now was that when you become less attached to things, and less wrapped up in yourself, you gain a significant number of IQ points, it feels like anywhere from 5-10+. Instead of going from upset to upset, and getting stuck in various outrage cycles throughout the day, you can dispassionately assess every situation like a word problem or simple riddle, and start to see how perceived problems usually have a very simple and straightforward solution which leaves you far better off than you were before the “problem” presented itself in your life. When you become more present you start seeing multiple moves ahead in every situation and become far more efficient, because you just have more headspace for life. These changes are related to decreasing brain inflammation.

In the 5th week I also realized that I had slowed down, though this happened a lot earlier, probably near the very beginning. When I’m inflamed and stressed I often get this sense of urgency where I feel I need to rush everything, especially eating.
I haven’t had any reflux or trouble getting to sleep. No sweet cravings.
I just realized while writing this that the two most prominent lipomas have started shrinking, appearing to be about half as large as they used to be, which is not usually seen with simple weight loss.
As the 5th week finished up I started passing what looked like puffed millet.
Puffed Millet - Organic

Also what looked like chunks of bowel wall, but are probably what people refer to a “rope worms,” likely mucus deposits on the walls of the colon that are sloughing off, we think they’re likely remnants of microbial biofilms, and they’re routinely seen in all our patients who watch for them while following their protocols.
An important point to note is that it’s not all a bed of roses. Part of healing usually requires dealing with some discomfort and even periods of symptom worsening.
Before the parasite die off began there was a period of a couple days where I became nauseated and then on the 3rd day I projectile vomited after completing my morning green juice. Then as the parasite die-off started I got much more irritable, some mild dyspepsia cropped up, I had a couple nights of light sleep.
The mental benefits I initially experienced didn’t progress and actually regressed a couple weeks later as more and more toxins began to be released. New mild rashes popped up on my neck, probably from head and neck toxins being flushed out.
All these issues led to minor additions or alterations to my protocol and required close communication with Hakim Shabaz.
We see similar issues frequently in patients who have significant whole body toxicity that has developed over decades. It may last for days or weeks at a time, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
In some patients microbial die off, especially of parasites, can lead to much worse, like severe pain, biliary and colonic blockages, infection from rotting matter that can’t be fully expelled from involved organs. Our patients don’t develop these since our. protocols are carefully designed to be gradual and not sudden, but many of our patients do develop severe paranoia. Much of the work of the protocol is meant to minimize this stress reaction from affecting patients too greatly, for example various calming herbs and breathing practices.
When certain microbes, including parasites start to feel threatened they naturally release their own stress hormones, which mimic ours and have the same effects on us that our own do. As parasites begin to die their stress spikes intensely and can make us feel a sense of impending doom, as though we’re going to die. Hakim Shabaz often tells patients on the first visit to write a note to themselves for future reference: “I will reach a point where parasite die off will make me very angry at Hakim Shabaz and I will want to stop the protocol.” When it actually happens and patients are reminded of this seemingly silly task they had completed it can help kick them out of a growing spiral of despair. However many patients cheat on their protocols, which only serves to increase the likelihood their parasite die off will be particularly uncomfortable and perhaps not even as effective as it would otherwise be. That’s because we don’t need to just kill them, we need to shift the terrain so they don’t come back. And we need the body’s help to get into the biofilm where many of them hide. Medications alone often do not accomplish the task without careful adherence to the protocol which starves them of their usual nourishment.
“Slow is Smooth, Smooth is Fast.”
The famous Navy Seals mantra applies to most areas of life, including our health. When you take it slow things go smoothly, mistakes don’t happen, you don’t have to redo things over and over. You get it right the first time. And that makes things go quicker than if you were in a rush to begin with. Whether the journey is the destination or the destination is the destination, in either case doing it right matters. And right means you don’t rush it, because the reward for slogging through slowly compounds over time. As your brain gets less inflamed you sleep better despite sleeping less, your relationships improve, you accomplish more in less time with fewer resources. Your quality of life climbs. Rather than struggling to the top of a hill and not finding any path to climb higher, you learn to fly and take off in the direction of exponential hockey stick growth and change.
Dr. Abdulrahman M. Aljamouss | The Hockey stick growth
Everyone has toxins and pathogens in them contributing to ill health, but they have to be removed gradually since the pathways of elimination are only so large. It's like evacuating a city during a disaster. The roads can become completely blocked and then no one gets out.
The body also needs to be nutritionally supported and the psyche intellectually and emotionally supported by reframing various aspects of life and addressing deeper root causes of illness, since toxins and pathogens are not really the root causes of disease.
Root causes are found in the psyche and manifested in the form of energetic dysfunction, which further manifests as physical weakness, which leads to the persistence of toxins and pathogens which manifests the physical symptoms as the immune system attempts to root them out.
Simply flushing toxins and killing pathogens will often resolve symptoms, but not the deeper causes, which means they will manifest themselves again in the same disease after some time, or in some new disease.

Almost all modern medicine, whether mainstream or alternative, simply applies superficial band aid solutions to symptoms. This passes the buck to your future self with interest. A few months of focused effort can usually fix the deepest problems and pay dividends for decades.
What I’m Doing
My protocol is specific to me, though it’s possible others might benefit from it or something similar. I have seen that the protocols from Hakim Shabaz can vary widely depending on the specifics of a person’s health problems. Since the protocol is so time consuming and difficult for most people to commit to long enough to see its benefits, it pays to have the right personalized protocol right off the bat. Even if there were a broadly generalizable generic protocol it would still likely be missing one or a few ingredients specific to each person that could make all the difference in speeding up results.
Generally speaking, as I see it, the approach to healing from any disease whatsoever involves the following steps that Hakim Shabaz’s protocols help to initiate:
Believe strongly that you can get better and trigger the placebo effect. Committing to a difficult, time-consuming protocol helps greatly with this, because psychologically it requires some belief to even begin, but the doing also helps to create and strengthen the belief itself. This dynamic creates a positive feedback loop of strengthening belief the longer you continue.
At the beginning or within the first few months come to understand and accept that every disease reflects the inner self in some way, and resolving it requires doing some work on that aspect of yourself.
Change the physical to mitigate the symptoms and at the same time help shift your inward reality towards a healthy balanced state. At the physical level we do things like coffee enemas to help the body flush out toxins by opening up the detox pathways of the liver/gallbladder/intestinal complex, the lungs, the skin, and the kidneys. We take toxin binders like chlorella so that the toxins that are dumped into the intestines don’t just recirculate back into the bloodstream. We take antimicrobial compounds to help kill off pathogens. We supplement nutrients that are missing by natural means, which are inherently balanced, e.g. with organ meats and vegetable juicing. Throughout we aim to begin gently rather than harshly. We start with low dose mild antimicrobials so as not to shock the body or lead to rapid die-off which is very uncomfortable, and unhelpful at best, harmful at worst.
Eventually begin changing the mental and emotional levels and finally resolving old traumas by reframing them rather than repeatedly remembering them within the same frame of reference and thereby re-traumatizing ourselves. This takes someone wise and well-versed in the ancient techniques of really effective psychotherapy and neural retraining. This isn’t just talk therapy, it’s much more effective and efficient if you’re willing to do it.
Below you’ll find all the details of my comprehensive personal protocol, which along with a specific detox diet, various whole herbs, chlorine dioxide dosing, and certain simple Ayurvedic detox modalities, also includes links to a recipe for a homemade nutritional paste that helps improve detox of the liver, a homemade neck cream that helps detox the head, neck and brain, including the inner ears, and directions for practicing the Humming Bee Breath, which is particularly effective at discharging the toxic energy imbalances caused by emotional trauma, mental stress and even EMF radiation, a well as helping allay chronic irritability and anger.
The complexity of this protocol and the time required to implement it daily is daunting, and many will balk, insisting that it can’t be that hard, there must be an easier way. Actually killing parasites is not that hard. Many people can take ivermectin and fenbendazole and natural herbs and extracts and they’ll find parasites in their stool and call it a day. The trouble is that the real problem is still there, and even if the parasites are all rooted out, they often come right back, because the terrain is still welcoming them in.
But, the real reason deep healing requires so much effort is because of just how toxic our modern environment is, physically, emotionally, intellectually and spiritually. Our ancestors didn’t have to exert so much effort to just get to "normal.” A protocol like this only seems extreme if you don’t realize just how sick the entire planet has become, and that we’re immersed in that dirty fish bowl all the time.
As far as difficulty level, spending 3+ hours a day for 6 months is easy mode.
You know what's hard? Becoming disabled and dying early. Also hard: spending 20 years to become a neurosurgeon. If I told you that you had to spend 20 years and half a million dollars in schooling fees in order to heal you would be justified in saying that's hard.
People need to finally put their health in perspective. You've been sold a bill of goods. Everyone wants a magic pill, but there is no magic pill.
Something intense like what I’m about to describe is already the easiest, fastest way. Everything else has you going in circles or straight backwards while you fool yourself into believing you're making progress.

The First Thing About Disease
This is why you avoid “healthcare” like the plague.
Because, honestly, it’s not even what most people who are “awake” have started calling it, i.e. “Disease Care”.
It’s actually Disease Producing.
The first thing to know about disease is that what you see is not your problem. It’s usually the solution to your problem.
Disease is at least two things: 1. a message and 2. a maneuver.
It’s a message in at least two possible ways: direct and indirect.
A direct message means that there’s a physical toxin and/or pathogen in some tissue of your body, and your immune system is fighting it off, rooting it out, which creates symptoms. Just as if criminals had taken your family hostage and a SWAT team had to come save them. They might try negotiating at first, but if things escalate and there’s no other choice they kick down your door and go capture or kill the bad guys. If you systematically refuse to allow SWAT to take care of these situations then criminals will start doing the same to more and more families throughout the city. Eventually other crime will explode as well. Lawlessness will reign and eventually you may have to bring in the military to get it under control. If you then prevent the military from doing the job, eventually you may have a full on revolution. If you still prevent the military from stepping in you lose the city, state or even the entire country.
An indirect message means that there’s an emotional root cause issue, like childhood trauma that may be manifesting as an allergic disorder triggered by usually harmless items like common foods. In both cases the body isn’t making any mistakes, it’s responding appropriately to help you deal with the real root cause of your problem, which is hurting you physically or emotionally.
It’s a maneuver in that the symptoms and signs themselves are helpful in mitigating the harm from the underlying root cause. Lab work which is almost universally misunderstood by modern medical practitioners and patients offers many examples. High ferritin levels, the storage form of iron, are usually due to inflammation or infection. So the high ferritin is not a problem to be fixed in and of itself. Many pathogens can make use of iron to hurt you, so the body locks it away from them, which raises ferritin. If you somehow force your body to lower ferritin, it would just make matters worse as you would be less well equipped to fight off the invading force. Out of range lab values are just secondary signs of your body doing the best possible thing for you in the situation you’re in. Reversing the helpful reaction to your problem may help with certain symptoms like fatigue due to anemia from low iron, but it doesn’t help you in the medium or long term, it only ends up harming you far more as the underlying problem proliferates and comes back to bite you harder.
So, both mainstream and almost all of alternative medicine are way off-base and really just a false dichotomy. They both assume the body is doing the wrong thing because it's either broken or confused. It's not either. It's your first, best, and often only real physician.
You have to get to the underlying, deeper layer of causes which are not physical or energetic, they’re psycho-spiritual, and they manifests the physical means of disease-making superficial physical causes like toxins, pathogens and lack of nutrients through the energetic weakening that is manifested in your physical organs, by depleting those organs of nutrients and making them susceptible to invasion by toxins and pathogens that cause disease.
Which again is not a bad thing, because it's just a message pointing you in the direction of your real problem.
Pain is Good
Pain is the most important message, because it protects you from what would harm you which is another way of saying it keeps you alive. Because what harms in small quantities, kills in large doses. You can get a large dose all at once, or have it build up over the decades until it finally finishes you off, which is what happens to most people.
Pain will begin as mild discomfort. A bit of reflux, occasional constipation, some rough menstrual periods, random headaches, mild allergies, etc.
If you understand what’s going on you’ll pay attention, not cover it up with symptomatic medications, address the deeper root cause issues and get back on the right track.
Pain is meant to course correct you.
If you took off on a trans-Atlantic voyage with the right heading, but then you never again checked your instruments to be sure you were still on the right course, you might end up in South Africa instead of the south of France.
Pain is feedback from your body and soul. It means you’re headed the wrong way. Check your instruments and get back on track.

The Real Roots of Disease
Consciousness comes first, and it manifests the physical world. Consciousness has a connection to the Divine, a sense that there’s something greater than itself, an ultimate creative force. Consciousness has various other aspects of itself like the ability to believe certain things about reality, be motivated to do things for itself, the ability to plan, the ability to feel emotions, the ability to balance the needs of disparate parts of itself, and finally the ability to manifest its various parts as energy and ultimately physical substance.
Different “higher” aspects of self relate to different parts of the energetic and physical body. The heart balances between the organs. The liver relates to anger. The kidneys to fear.
As mentioned above, when these or other emotions are imbalanced they place strain on their respective organs. Over time that strain wears down the organs, and as they get worn down they become less able to do their particular jobs. The organs also become less able to protect themselves from the buildup of toxins and from unusual proliferation of our own microbiome or invasion by foreign pathogens. The microbiome includes not only bacteria, but fungi, viruses, and may even include some parasites in some people. Fungi are nature’s toxin cleanup crews. They do the same inside our own bodies. When toxins build up they proliferate to bind, sequester and protect our tissues from them. Various other elements of the microbiome have their own reasons to proliferate on our behalf. Beneficial bacteria for example often aid tremendously in fighting off foreign pathogenic bacteria, something that might become necessary when the immune system within a particular tissue can no longer do its job adequately. The not so downside to all these maneuvers is that there will often be some uncomfortable side effects, or pain signals sent because of them.
Focus on the Meaning of the Message
To understand how to reverse disease and get truly healthy again, we have to know what not to do first.
We can’t just focus on the superficial symptoms and signs.
Everyone who's studied anything about alternative health probably understands that to some extent, but what most don’t understand is just how many things fall under the superficial category.
Really everything physical is superficial, including all those “risk factors” that you’re warned about and urged to “control” like high blood pressure, high blood sugar, insulin resistance, obesity, and even “stress” itself.
None of these are root causes.
There’s really only one root cause.
You are the root cause of not only all your illnesses, but of all your problems in life.
You have to fix you before it’s too late.
What that means is that imbalance at some level of your being will always be manifested as a problem of some sort in your life. As above, so below, as within, so without. This is a law of reality that must be manifested if our existence is to have any meaning. The purpose of existence is to better know ourselves, and thereby the Divine reality and incrementally perfect ourselves in order to draw nearer to it. The universe itself only manifests what we need in order for us to do so, which means it shows us our own faults in order that we may correct them.
If we tend to be too angry, the universe and everything within it will respond to us in a certain way that will reveal that that excessive anger is a problem - e.g. by giving us various symptoms stemming from some form of liver dysfunction (or its downstream effects on other organs), or making our lives much more difficult than they would otherwise be.
We may struggle to deal with the anger until perhaps we realize it’s actually based on fear of being harmed and lashing out against that perceived threat to protect ourselves.
And we may struggle to deal with that fear until perhaps we realize that it’s based on a misconception about the nature of the universe and what’s in it, believing that what is manifested within it is even capable of harming or benefiting us of its own accord.
At a more practical level, most people are afraid of other people, until they realize that those other people aren’t actually out to get them. That the threat they perceive from others is just a reflection of their own selves. That the sullen expressions or scowls they notice on other’s faces are just a reflection of their own expressions and feelings. What’s underneath the surface of others is ultimately a mystery but assuming the best of them produces the best interactions and outcomes.

How to Heal
Some animals just sit there like plants and whatever they need from the world comes to them. They don’t lift a finger or move an inch, yet they eat, drink and procreate. These strange creatures include sponges, anemones, corals, barnacles, and sea squirts (yes, these are all classified as animals).

Coral is a strange animal
Despite what you may think, human beings may also be numbered among them, though it’s certainly not our natural state.
We’re meant to be creatures of action, and action is required for us to grow and change. Our spiritual, mental and emotional sides are deeply entwined with our energetic and physical bodies. What moves one, moves the other. And we’re the ones that move both. However it’s easier to move the physical than it is the energetic, emotional or intellectual. We can’t simply drift in the waves of this world and expect to do any meaningful work on our thoughts, emotions, and spirit. Interacting with others and with the events of our lives is what reveals us to ourselves. Changing how we interact is what shows us that we’ve actually grown and aren’t just fooling ourselves into thinking that we have. You can weep and beg forgiveness in the middle of the night for what you did wrong, but the only way to know for certain that you’ve actually changed is to be in a similar situation again and find out if you commit the same misdeed you did before.
So the way to change is to do something different that you’re sure will work and keep score so you can’t lie to yourself.
That’s why the first step in a real healing protocol is to get a plan of action from someone who really knows what they’re doing and can help you heal anything (that’s my own teacher and practice partner Hakim Shabaz, click below to learn more).
My 5 Week Results
Strangely enough right from day one I noticed a big improvement in mood, reactivity, and irritability. I was suddenly able to make headway on self-improvement, such as keeping score against myself in order to stop getting selfishly angry, i.e. stop acting like a spoiled 2 year old brat whenever things didn’t go my way. This must have been a placebo-type effect linked to finally deciding to make long overdue, big, hard, sustained changes - I committed to doing it strictly for at least 2 months straight (ensuring there would be no travel plans during that time necessitating skipping key protocol components).
My skin started clearing up immediately and I started losing weight, which continued throughout at a rapid rate of about 0.7 pounds per day, for a total of about 25 pounds, which brought me down into the normal BMI range for the first time in years. My teeth felt much cleaner within days, almost all the plaque disappearing.
Redness in my face went away quickly. I have a few patches of psoriasis which became 95% less inflamed and almost stopped scaling entirely within days.
After a couple weeks the largest skin tag suddenly got inflamed, swelled and was tender for a couple days, then promptly shriveled up and just fell off. A week later a smaller one did the same. Around the same time I passed some roundworms and then started seeing the liver flukes in every bowel movement / enema (they look like floating white date pits, or thin cloves of garlic 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch long).

These are the liver flukes. Mine all look whitish like the one on top.
After 3 weeks I realized I was also probably passing hydatid cysts.

(If instead of doing all that I had been impatient and just taken some anti-parasitic medication I might have killed so many parasites so fast that my small intestine and gallbladder may have become blocked requiring hospitalization and even surgery.)
In the 3rd or 4th week I noticed that the urine flow had started improving almost all the time.
In the 5th week I started noticing moments of greater clarity, and improved mental functioning, especially when in the hot bath, where I experienced a lot of creativity, perhaps because I get particularly relaxed inside.
This was reminiscent of a period of self improvement I went through decades ago during med school when I got very lean for the first time in my life. What I noticed then and even more so now was that when you become less attached to things, and less wrapped up in yourself, you gain a significant number of IQ points, it feels like anywhere from 5-10+. Instead of going from upset to upset, and getting stuck in various outrage cycles throughout the day, you can dispassionately assess every situation like a word problem or simple riddle, and start to see how perceived problems usually have a very simple and straightforward solution which leaves you far better off than you were before the “problem” presented itself in your life. When you become more present you start seeing multiple moves ahead in every situation and become far more efficient, because you just have more headspace for life. These changes are related to decreasing brain inflammation.

In the 5th week I also realized that I had slowed down, though this happened a lot earlier, probably near the very beginning. When I’m inflamed and stressed I often get this sense of urgency where I feel I need to rush everything, especially eating.
I haven’t had any reflux or trouble getting to sleep. No sweet cravings.
I just realized while writing this that the two most prominent lipomas have started shrinking, appearing to be about half as large as they used to be, which is not usually seen with simple weight loss.
As the 5th week finished up I started passing what looked like puffed millet.

Also what looked like chunks of bowel wall, but are probably what people refer to a “rope worms,” likely mucus deposits on the walls of the colon that are sloughing off, we think they’re likely remnants of microbial biofilms, and they’re routinely seen in all our patients who watch for them while following their protocols.
An important point to note is that it’s not all a bed of roses. Part of healing usually requires dealing with some discomfort and even periods of symptom worsening.
Before the parasite die off began there was a period of a couple days where I became nauseated and then on the 3rd day I projectile vomited after completing my morning green juice. Then as the parasite die-off started I got much more irritable, some mild dyspepsia cropped up, I had a couple nights of light sleep.
The mental benefits I initially experienced didn’t progress and actually regressed a couple weeks later as more and more toxins began to be released. New mild rashes popped up on my neck, probably from head and neck toxins being flushed out.
All these issues led to minor additions or alterations to my protocol and required close communication with Hakim Shabaz.
We see similar issues frequently in patients who have significant whole body toxicity that has developed over decades. It may last for days or weeks at a time, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
In some patients microbial die off, especially of parasites, can lead to much worse, like severe pain, biliary and colonic blockages, infection from rotting matter that can’t be fully expelled from involved organs. Our patients don’t develop these since our. protocols are carefully designed to be gradual and not sudden, but many of our patients do develop severe paranoia. Much of the work of the protocol is meant to minimize this stress reaction from affecting patients too greatly, for example various calming herbs and breathing practices.
When certain microbes, including parasites start to feel threatened they naturally release their own stress hormones, which mimic ours and have the same effects on us that our own do. As parasites begin to die their stress spikes intensely and can make us feel a sense of impending doom, as though we’re going to die. Hakim Shabaz often tells patients on the first visit to write a note to themselves for future reference: “I will reach a point where parasite die off will make me very angry at Hakim Shabaz and I will want to stop the protocol.” When it actually happens and patients are reminded of this seemingly silly task they had completed it can help kick them out of a growing spiral of despair. However many patients cheat on their protocols, which only serves to increase the likelihood their parasite die off will be particularly uncomfortable and perhaps not even as effective as it would otherwise be. That’s because we don’t need to just kill them, we need to shift the terrain so they don’t come back. And we need the body’s help to get into the biofilm where many of them hide. Medications alone often do not accomplish the task without careful adherence to the protocol which starves them of their usual nourishment.
“Slow is Smooth, Smooth is Fast.”
The famous Navy Seals mantra applies to most areas of life, including our health. When you take it slow things go smoothly, mistakes don’t happen, you don’t have to redo things over and over. You get it right the first time. And that makes things go quicker than if you were in a rush to begin with. Whether the journey is the destination or the destination is the destination, in either case doing it right matters. And right means you don’t rush it, because the reward for slogging through slowly compounds over time. As your brain gets less inflamed you sleep better despite sleeping less, your relationships improve, you accomplish more in less time with fewer resources. Your quality of life climbs. Rather than struggling to the top of a hill and not finding any path to climb higher, you learn to fly and take off in the direction of exponential hockey stick growth and change.
Dr. Abdulrahman M. Aljamouss | The Hockey stick growth
Everyone has toxins and pathogens in them contributing to ill health, but they have to be removed gradually since the pathways of elimination are only so large. It's like evacuating a city during a disaster. The roads can become completely blocked and then no one gets out.
The body also needs to be nutritionally supported and the psyche intellectually and emotionally supported by reframing various aspects of life and addressing deeper root causes of illness, since toxins and pathogens are not really the root causes of disease.
Root causes are found in the psyche and manifested in the form of energetic dysfunction, which further manifests as physical weakness, which leads to the persistence of toxins and pathogens which manifests the physical symptoms as the immune system attempts to root them out.
Simply flushing toxins and killing pathogens will often resolve symptoms, but not the deeper causes, which means they will manifest themselves again in the same disease after some time, or in some new disease.

Almost all modern medicine, whether mainstream or alternative, simply applies superficial band aid solutions to symptoms. This passes the buck to your future self with interest. A few months of focused effort can usually fix the deepest problems and pay dividends for decades.
What I’m Doing
My protocol is specific to me, though it’s possible others might benefit from it or something similar. I have seen that the protocols from Hakim Shabaz can vary widely depending on the specifics of a person’s health problems. Since the protocol is so time consuming and difficult for most people to commit to long enough to see its benefits, it pays to have the right personalized protocol right off the bat. Even if there were a broadly generalizable generic protocol it would still likely be missing one or a few ingredients specific to each person that could make all the difference in speeding up results.
Generally speaking, as I see it, the approach to healing from any disease whatsoever involves the following steps that Hakim Shabaz’s protocols help to initiate:
Believe strongly that you can get better and trigger the placebo effect. Committing to a difficult, time-consuming protocol helps greatly with this, because psychologically it requires some belief to even begin, but the doing also helps to create and strengthen the belief itself. This dynamic creates a positive feedback loop of strengthening belief the longer you continue.
At the beginning or within the first few months come to understand and accept that every disease reflects the inner self in some way, and resolving it requires doing some work on that aspect of yourself.
Change the physical to mitigate the symptoms and at the same time help shift your inward reality towards a healthy balanced state. At the physical level we do things like coffee enemas to help the body flush out toxins by opening up the detox pathways of the liver/gallbladder/intestinal complex, the lungs, the skin, and the kidneys. We take toxin binders like chlorella so that the toxins that are dumped into the intestines don’t just recirculate back into the bloodstream. We take antimicrobial compounds to help kill off pathogens. We supplement nutrients that are missing by natural means, which are inherently balanced, e.g. with organ meats and vegetable juicing. Throughout we aim to begin gently rather than harshly. We start with low dose mild antimicrobials so as not to shock the body or lead to rapid die-off which is very uncomfortable, and unhelpful at best, harmful at worst.
Eventually begin changing the mental and emotional levels and finally resolving old traumas by reframing them rather than repeatedly remembering them within the same frame of reference and thereby re-traumatizing ourselves. This takes someone wise and well-versed in the ancient techniques of really effective psychotherapy and neural retraining. This isn’t just talk therapy, it’s much more effective and efficient if you’re willing to do it.
Below you’ll find all the details of my comprehensive personal protocol, which along with a specific detox diet, various whole herbs, chlorine dioxide dosing, and certain simple Ayurvedic detox modalities, also includes links to a recipe for a homemade nutritional paste that helps improve detox of the liver, a homemade neck cream that helps detox the head, neck and brain, including the inner ears, and directions for practicing the Humming Bee Breath, which is particularly effective at discharging the toxic energy imbalances caused by emotional trauma, mental stress and even EMF radiation, a well as helping allay chronic irritability and anger.
The complexity of this protocol and the time required to implement it daily is daunting, and many will balk, insisting that it can’t be that hard, there must be an easier way. Actually killing parasites is not that hard. Many people can take ivermectin and fenbendazole and natural herbs and extracts and they’ll find parasites in their stool and call it a day. The trouble is that the real problem is still there, and even if the parasites are all rooted out, they often come right back, because the terrain is still welcoming them in.
But, the real reason deep healing requires so much effort is because of just how toxic our modern environment is, physically, emotionally, intellectually and spiritually. Our ancestors didn’t have to exert so much effort to just get to "normal.” A protocol like this only seems extreme if you don’t realize just how sick the entire planet has become, and that we’re immersed in that dirty fish bowl all the time.
As far as difficulty level, spending 3+ hours a day for 6 months is easy mode.
You know what's hard? Becoming disabled and dying early. Also hard: spending 20 years to become a neurosurgeon. If I told you that you had to spend 20 years and half a million dollars in schooling fees in order to heal you would be justified in saying that's hard.
People need to finally put their health in perspective. You've been sold a bill of goods. Everyone wants a magic pill, but there is no magic pill.
Something intense like what I’m about to describe is already the easiest, fastest way. Everything else has you going in circles or straight backwards while you fool yourself into believing you're making progress.
