Autoimmune diseases
Autoimmune diseases arise from an overactive immune response by the body against substances and tissues normally present within in the body. In other words, the body attacks its own cells. Autoimmune diseases are a major cause of immune system disorders. After completing the Intensive Health Program, a certain degree of immune modulation has been achieved. Continuing with the lifestyle and home treatments has yielded significant results.
Diabetes Mellitus
Remarkable results have been achieved with Type II diabetics. A juice fast and omitting oral or insulin injections for the few days during the fast have helped to reduce dosages of oral diabetic medications or insulin after the fast when food and medications were reintroduced. The accompanying loss of weight aids in better blood sugar control.
Early Cancer
The Loma Linda Campestre-recommended lifestyle programs aid in the prevention of diseases– of which cancer is one of them. Combining lifestyle changes and natural remedies with conventional treatment gives a great advantage to those with early cancer. Detoxification and rebuilding of the immune system is the goal of the Cancer Battle Program.
Heart Disease Reversal
Unknown to many, most foods' hidden oil and cholesterol contribute to high lipids. Together with insufficient antioxidants in our diet, we have a higher risk of atherosclerosis. By merely knowing the nutritional content of food and being motivated to change one's choices of food, a significant reduction of blood lipids can be achieved. Long-term results are very encouraging.
High Blood Pressure Control
A modern lifestyle with its accompanying stress contributes to high blood pressure. Learning to de-stress, following simple natural therapies, and taking herbal supplements have aided in significant blood pressure reduction. Even a minimal reduction in blood pressure greatly improves outcomes from complications.
Stop smoking
The Quit Smoking Program includes a series of treatments such as juice fasting and daily Russian steam baths, complemented by herbal teas, which promote detoxification and reduce withdrawal symptoms. With proper psychological preparation, long-term success is possible.
Weight Reduction & Control
Most of our guests have been delighted with the results achieved and motivated to reduce their weight even further through the new way of life they learned at Loma Linda Campestre. Now, they can enjoy healthy and deliciously cooked food and lose weight! Exercise becomes a joy.
We treat primarily with nutrition (well balanced special diet, juicing, herbal teas, supplements), daily exercise, Swedish massage and various treatment modalities such as hydrotherapy, including the use of heat: temperature-controlled hot baths, fomentations, hot foot baths and Russian steam baths. Far infra-ray treatments as well as colonic irrigations or cleansing enemas may be recommended.
Each health guest receives regular consultations, which include a complete medical history and physical examination by the doctor during admission. The subsequent morning, a complete laboratory blood test is performed. The health guest program is individualized, with regular consultations to assess their health status and progress during their stay.
In addition, we have an extensive health education program and an orientation on preventive medicine. Health and nutrition lectures are given to the guests five days a week. We also offer demonstrations in healthful cooking, as well as personal instruction and counselling in areas such as smoking cessation and disease management. A participant's manual and educational reading materials are provided for ready reference.
Group activities and support among health guests and the staff play a significant role in overcoming cravings and the challenging moments in one's illness
