In Depth on African Bio-Mineral Balance and Dr. Sebi's Methodology

Reviewed by Pablo Medina, Herbalist

Have you ever wondered what the famous herbalist known as "Dr. Sebi" was all about? Read on to learn all about Dr. Sebi's methodology in depth.

Through his own personal experiences with asthma, diabetes and other health conditions, Dr. Sebi found that traditional Western medicine didn't have a positive impact on his well-being. He went back to nature and herbalism, beginning the process of healing himself.

After years of trial, and through extensive empirical knowledge, he developed a unique methodology based on natural vegetation cell-foods; Dr. Sebi made it his life's mission to discover techniques and bio-minerals to help treat diseases at the cellular level and, before his passing in 2016, he began sharing his methodology.

Dr. Sebi wanted his message to be heard all around the world, he traveled and gave multiple lectures, spreading the news of the Bio-Mineral Balance and teaching his methodology. But, what is Dr. Sebi's methodology? What are the specifics? Why do they work? And most importantly, how can you implement it in your own life?

The Core of Dr. Sebi's Methodology

Dr. Sebi's methodology focuses on the root cause of diseases and not just the symptoms. His research revealed that the actual cause of disease is mucus, and that "disease manifests in areas of the body where the mucous membrane has been compromised". Once understanding this, Dr. Sebi began creating and experimenting with bio-minerals designed to cleanse mucus from the body. 

Through this African Bio-Mineral Balance, Dr. Sebi's helps clear the body of mucus and toxins, returning it to its natural alkaline state and ultimately cleansing and detoxifying it from disease.

What is the African Bio-Mineral Balance?

The herbal compounds created by Dr. Sebi are classified as "natural vegetation cell food". They are comprised of natural, alkaline plants that help control the build-up of acid and mucus in our body. They also replace depleted minerals, rejuvenate damaged cell tissue, and help the body regenerate.

Dr. Sebi's methodology stated that all disease lived in an acidic environment. He realized all the meats, processed foods, and starch were creating an acidic environment. This Bio-Mineral Balance focuses on cleansing toxins and mucus from key health organs such as the skin, liver, gallbladder, lymph glands, kidneys, and the colon. Importantly, if any organ is left without being cleaned, the toxins that are cleansed from other organs can get recycled through the body into the unhealthy organs and continue manifesting disease in those areas. Most importantly, the colon is at the core of the body's nutritional system, and its balance feeds into all other organs. It is essential to cleanse the colon first and ensure it is free of toxicity before any disease in other parts of the body can be reversed. 

However, similarly, if only the colon is targeted and detoxified, any of the other organs may remain unhealthy and the cleansed toxins from the colon will be recycled, leading to disease in other places. By eliminating toxins from all of these areas, the body becomes purified and naturally alkaline, leaving no remaining areas for diseases to manifest and allowing the body to heal and rejuvenate itself.

Detoxifying & Cleansing Diet

While the Bio-Mineral Balance is successful in removing mucus and toxins from the body, if you continue to ingest more toxins then you'll just experience the same issues. In order to effectively cleanse the body of toxins and allow it to heal from disease, you must stick to a strict detoxifying diet to prevent the build-up of new toxins and mucus, and create a healthy, balanced, alkaline environment in your body that is resistant to disease and illness.

Through Dr. Sebi's 30 years of experience, he was able to develop a Nutritional Guide to get the most out of his program and ensure the purification of the body.

While a full list of foods is available in his Nutritional Guide, here are some key tips to remember from Dr. Sebi's methodology while cleansing and to ensure your body remains in balance:

  • If a food is not listed in Dr.Sebi's Nutritional Guide, it is not recommended.
  • Drink at least one gallon (3.8L) of natural spring water every day.
  • Dr. Sebi's products should be taken at least one hour prior to any medicine or pharmaceuticals.
  • Dr. Sebi's products can be taken together without issue.
  • For best results, follow the Nutritional Guide strictly. and ensure you take the products regularly each day.
  • Do not consume any animal products (meat, dairy, fish, hybrid foods).
  • Do not consume alcohol.
  • Avoid using a microwave, as it will kill your food.
  • Do not use canned or seedless fruits - use fresh, natural fruit only.
  • Natural growing grains are alkaline-based, but there are many grains (eg. wheat) that are not - It is strongly recommended that you only consume the grains listed in the Nutritional Guide
  • As a tip, many of the grains listed are available as pasta, bread, flour, and cereal, so be sure to substitute wheat-based products with these alternatives, usually available at health and wholefood stores.

Re-Cap

Dr. Sebi's intra-cellular detoxifying cleanse is the result of the combination of the African Bio-Mineral Balance and the effective Nutritional Guide

By feeding the body's cells with key, herbal, natural vegetation cell food compounds, we are able to target and cleanse specific areas of the body from mucus and toxins. And by detoxifying all major organs while maintaining a toxin-free, mucus-reducing diet, we are able to purify the body and allow it to regenerate itself at a cellular level.
