Fauja Singh, born April 1st, 1911, took part in the London Marathon in 2012 at the ripe age of 101 years. He ran 42 km in 7 hours and 49 minutes, an extraordinary undertaking within the reach of only a few people.
But we can all stay healthy without having to run a 42 km marathon.
Ou r main emunctories are in a constant marathon getting rid of our toxins day and night. These organs are: the intestines, the liver, the kidneys, skin, lungs, and the lymphatic system. The word “emunctory” comes from the Latin word “emunctorium” which means “dry up” or “drain” and refers to organs that excrete and whose function is to “detoxify” .
We can compare these organs to a container with a drain. If the amount of waste is processed within an appropriate time so as not to overload the body, then the body is kept clean and the cells can function properly. On the other hand, if the drain is clogged or there are too many toxins that cannot be removed, the body will gradually be overloaded and the functioning of the organs will slow down.
Another point to consider is that the older we get and the slower our body works..
Although today the word “detoxify ” is even on the lips of children , we must keep in mind that Dr. Clark, in her great understanding of how the human body works, was one of the first to promote the cleansing (detoxifying) of the emunctories.
The kidney cleanse is one of Dr. Clark’s most important cleanses. This is because our kidneys are constantly exposed to high concentrations of toxic substances. Our white blood cells need to empty their toxic load into the bladder. This can only happen if our kidneys are clean since they precede the bladder.
If our kidneys are filled with toxins, our white blood cells will not be able to empty their load. This will be the beginning of an immune depressed state. The majority of renal diseases are connected to a weakened or abnormal immune system. Considering that our kidneys need to filter about 200 quarts of blood a day, of which 2 liters become waste products and excess water (urine), and that about one fifth of the blood pumped by our heart goes to the kidneys, we can well understand how healthy kidneys are associated with the proper functioning of all organs and therefore the health and proper functioning of the body depends to a great extent on an adequate renal function.
Dr. Clark has carefully chosen herbs and roots from the “Garden of Nature” to prepare the best recipe for renal strengthen and to cleanse the kidneys.
Many of the herbs chosen for her kidney cleanse were used by North American Indians as a remedy for kidney and bladder problems and stones. The North American Indians had found these herbs aided and encouraged the expulsion of remaining stones and harmful bacteria from the urinary tract.
Her kidney recipe of herbs and roots dissolves kidney stones and removes methyl malonate, heavy metals including gold , dyes , asbestos , radioactivity , wheel bearing grease, motor oil, plastic and rubber .

Dr. Clark recommended cleansing the kidneys twice a year. Now is a good time to start!
