The term diet, as used in the Cayce readings, most often does not mean what is ordinarily thought of: a weight-loss regimen. More likely diet refers to a way to detoxify one’s body, to cleanse the system, and to achieve a healthier balance. The apple diet is one of several mentioned in the readings (grapes, bananas, and citrus fruit are other examples). This mono-diet is most familiar to individuals as well as the one most often recommended. It involves eating only raw apples for three days, followed by a dose of olive oil (see also the chapter on “Olive Oil”).

In The Edgar Cayce Handbook for Health Through Drugless Therapy, author Dr. Harold Reilly states: “Since most people are toxic to a greater or lesser degree, I have found that a good cleansing routine with the apple-diet regimen is the first step toward improving assimilation and elimination for anyone. If one is reasonably well, the detoxification will bring about an almost euphoric feeling of well-being and provide inexpensive and effective insurance against disease. If one is not well, the apple-cleansing regimen is an excellent beginning of a therapeutic program.” (p. 221)
