I'm curious to hear more about the sex system and if he has anything original to say on the topic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cameron Posted September 28, 2005 Furey gives no returns on any of his products if I understand. His sex system, from what one guy has said, is utter crapola. Â But i haven't checked it out personally. My guess is this latest batch of stuff from him is way overpriced but if his customers pay for his products I don't have any problem with it. Â Though he will always get shit from alot of people like martial artists and fitness types who sell expensive equpment that he basically calls useless garbage.

He can make very good arguments for some positions that are based on very little or no hard evidence. He's usually on track though.  I don't think he's written anything in years. It will be interesting to see how his thinking has progressed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thelerner Posted September 29, 2005 In his book 'The Tao of Health Sex and Longevity' Reid has an extensive section on detoxing. Its older but wildly available, you may want to see if your local book mart has it and page through it. Â I did his detox w/ the old book a couple of times a few years ago. He's into fasting, pure water w/ lemon juice, psyllium seed, and bentonite. The Bentonite can make it hideous, but the psyllium seed is just plain old metamucil. It also contained maple syrup. You fast, only drinking that mixture for a few days up to 10. Â As I recall, there was a real high to it the last few days. It really reset how you'd think about food and time. Like all extreme fasts it will make you weak, and is done at your own risk. Â His new book must have more details and more to it then his older ones though.
