O1-12-01
WIiSRgAS, 3oseph Schumacher (File 00-151-254) has applied to rezone property at
330 Prior Avenue North from RT-1�(Two-Family Residential) to OS-1 (Office-
Service), legally described as (see file), for the purpose of developing a
purification center, and
wxEREAS, the Zoning Committee of the Planning Commission on O1/04/O1 held a
public hearing at which a11 persons present were given an opportunity to be
heard pursuant to said application in accordance with the requirements of
Section 64.300 0£ the Saint Paul Legislative Code; and
WHEREAS, Saint Paul Planning Commission, based on the evidence presented to
its Zoning Committee at the public hearing as substantially reflected in the
minutes, made the following findings of fact:
1. The applicant has owned this property since 1989. The property
previously was a church structure which the applicant converted into a
residential use. The applicant currently sesides on site and also runs
a home occupation wood working business from the site. The structure
also has one residential rental unit in the basement level. Available
o£f street parking consists of a two bay garage and one carport space.
The applicant is proposing to operate a purification center within the
building. The purification center, which is similar to a sauna, would
operate seven days a week from about 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Purification
treatments consist o£ 2 i/: to S houz daily sessions that average 2 to 4
weeks in duration. Up to ten clients at a time would be using the
center. The applicant would replace the basement rental unit with the
purification cenCer. The 1,150 square foot center would be operated by
the applicant along with help from his son and daughter. The applicant
would continue to reside on site but would eventually discontinue his
woodworking business.
Off street parking requirements for the combined pu=ification center and
single residential unit would be 6 spaces. Currently, three off street
parking spaces are available. Under the "Rule oP Five", no additional
parking spaces would be required.

2. The proposed rezoning is consistent with the comprehensive plan.
The 1999 Land Use Plan states, "In txaditional neighborhoods, the City
will support compatible mixed use within'single bui2dings and in �
separate buildings in close proximity." Objective 5.2.1.
3. The rezoning is consistent with the way the area has developed and
rezoning the property will have not have an adverse impact upon the
neighborhood. This portion of Prior Avenue is a designated minor
arterial and carries approximately 6,500 vehicles a day. To the north,_
immediately adjacent to the property is a nonconforming office building
that has eight tenants. A block north, along Prior Ave, is another
nonconforming office building. To the East, immediately adjacent to the
property is a nonconforming residential six-plex. Immediately west of
the property across Prior Avenue is the playground for the Merriam Park
Community center and the Longfellow Humanities elementary magnet school.
In light of this mixture of land uses, rezoning this property to OS-1 is
compatible to this immediate neighborhood.
4. The intent of the RT-1 zoning district states: "The RT-1 Two-
Family Residential district is designed to afford a transition of use in
existing housing areas by permitting new construction or conversion of
existing structures between adjacent residential and commercial, office,
thoroughfares or other uses which would affect residential character."
The OS-1 zoning district is intended to accommodate various types of
office uses performing administrative, professional and personal
services and to serve as a transitional use between the more intensive
uses of land such as major thoroughfares or commercial districts and the
less intensive_uses of land such as one-family residential. Permitted
professional uses include massage centers which are simiZar in nature to
the applicant's proposed purification center.
5. The applicant submitted a sufEicient petition of two-thirds of the
property owners within one hundred (100) feet of the property stating
support for the rezoning (10 parcels eligible, 7 parcels required, and 7
parcels signed).
Therefore, Be It Resolved, based on findings 1 through 5, the Planning
Commission recommends to the Saint Pau1 City CounciZ approvaZ of the
application to rezone the property at 's'su Frior 1-:�enue :�cr*_h from RT
OS-1.

, THE PURIFICATION PROGRAM
My Opinions and Observations
This program, with exercise, vitamins in exacting and increasing
amounts, and e�ensive sauna and sweating rimes, produces phenomenal
resuits. It is a perfect program for fuemen, police, athletes, workers eaposed
to chemicals, people who have had medical operations and drugs, painters,
nuclear plant workers and others exposed to radiation from sunbum, tanning
beds, x-rays, as well as computer and television screens. It is my opinion
and belief that everyone could benefit from doing this program.
While I was on the program, my gums went numb for two days from
Novocain being released. My body then turned completely red (lil:e the
worst sunburn you could imagine) from over-exposure in a tannuig saton.
This lasted forl 1 /4 hours, then I was completely white again. The next day, I
turned only half as red for one-half hour. On day five of the program I
began to see evidence of chemicals from my job (refmishing antiques) being
� sweated out. I stood up in the sauna and the color of my well-worn and
well-washed swimmuig trunks was left on the towel I had been sitting on. It
scared me. This went on day after day for eight to nine days. Each day the
fresh white towel was green in color from the toxic chemicals I was
sweating out bleeding out the color of my swim trunks. Finally, there was
no color exchange on the to�vei. I felt good and actually ran a full two miles.
I never thought I would be able to do that. A few days later I was finished
with the program.
A 32 year-old male in Chicago who was on the program emerged
from the sauna one day �vith his back all red — except for four white letters
speliing out D-O-R-K. He recalled that when he was rivelve, his brother had
spelled out "dork" on his back with sun screen lotion while he slept in the
sun. Go figure.
For some on the program, symptoms of chemicals leaving the body
are more dramatic, and for others barely noticeable. A hairdresser doing the
program will smell of perm solution. A lifeguard will smell of chlorine. An
alcoholic tivould smell of alcohol. A gradual approach is required on the
� program to minimize discomfort.
/
T
So many chemicats, drugs and toxins that a person is exposed to in •
life remain in the body in minute amounts, and, in certain instances, dislodge
from the cetls, circulate in the blood, and cause bodily and mental .
dysfunction. `Fhese same chemicals can then re-lodge in the cells only to
affect the person again later in life. These chemicals run the gamut from
food preservatives, cough syrup in childtiood, etc. to anesthesia, to teenage
street drugs. You see professional athletes making mental mistakes in
games because of This phenomena. Most athletes are quite healthy, and
likely limit drug intake. But �vhat about the common person - driving
motor vehicles, operating machinery, flying planes, handling guns? Take
this all the way do�vn to the person giving back change at McDonalds.
Drugs in the body cause mental dullness, blankness and apparent stupidity.
Dnzgs and toxins are antipatheric to a body and mind.
From nausea and headaches due to radiation accumulation, to the
multitude of effects of drugs and toxins — aII can be lessened to a great
e�tent by doing the Purification Program - leaving a person clean, bright and
enthusiastic about life again. Thus — clear body equals cleaz mind. This is a
program from which all can benefit. As Mayor Norm Coleman would say,
"This is good for St. Paul". �
In conclusioq it is my goal and intention through this program to
increase awazeness throughout communities of the harmfui effects of drugs
and to�ns, thereby lessening the effects of the devastation in the workplace,
home and communities as a whole. I begin the quest in St. Paul — it's my
home.

Onerations Detaits
At this point in time, I operate an antique repair and restoration business — Prior
Restorarions. My intention is to start and run the Purification Center evenings (4:00 —
9:00 p.m.) when the majority of those wishing to do the program are available. Prior
Restorarion's business hours would be cut back, and eventually closed or moved from our
residence. Our current residence would expand to occupy that space. The Purification
Center will occupy the downstairs (basement), which is currently a rental unit (332 No.
Prior). This will require the construction of a sauna and the remodeling of the two
existing bathrooms. No outside work wili be needed (other than the work already in
progress).
Those doing the program are required to be twinned or paired, thereby ensuring
safety while in the sauna or jogging in the park. Ideally, four to six persons will be on the
program at any given time, with staggered start times (e.g. two start at 4:00, two start anY
4:15, etc.). Participants will be asked to park across the street along the Merriam Park
side of Prior. Under the tenets of running a purification center, I will be held to strict
ethical conduct in all aspects of operation.
I have run Prior Restorations successfully for over 10 yeazs now as a"home
occupation" under the existing zoning classification for our property. The only reason
the purification program cannot be run as a home occupation is that I will be servicing
� more than one person at a time, thereby requiring this zoning change. The category best
fitting the described use is OS-1 Office Services.
We feel that the purification program is a more befitting service to the
neighborhood and community than a refinishing shop, fitting in nicely with other nearby
businesses, such as therapeutic massage, chiropractic and herbal therapy. Any signage
for the Purification Center would be limited to that of a home occupation.
I did the purification program early last yeaz in Florida because of accumulated
chemicals in my body - the result of years of working in the refinishing business. I found
the result so worthwhile that I looked into how I could delivery the program locally to
others. The oniy economically feasible option to deliver the program at this point in time
is in my home.
LJ
Merriam Park Purification Center
The Purification Program is the first and only effective method for releasing
and removing lodged drugs, toxins and other pollutants from the body.
• Running is done for 20-30 minutes to get the blood circulating deeper
into the tissues where residuals are lodged, and loosens then releases
them.
• Immediately following running is sauna time to flush the disiodged
toxins by sweating.
• Regular nutrition with additional vitamins, minerals and oiis taken in
exact amounts help the body flush out toxins and repair damaged
areas affected by drugs and taxic residuals.
• A proper schedule with sufficient rest is mandatory.
�
The program is done only after a full medical examination, and with a
doctor's approval. No one with anemia, heart problems or liver problems
may do the program, nor anyone currenfly on drugs. No one with an
extensive psychiatric treatment history may do the program.
The averaga length of time on the program is trvo to four weeks, at 3-5 hours �
per day. Pro�ess through the program is closely supervised to help ensure
one gets through each step of the program — in liaison with a medical doctor
as needed.
The entire program is outlined and described in detail in the book Clear
Bodv. Clear Mind by L. Rom Hubbard.

PCP Nightmare flver
for Narcotics afficers
br xonec warner
lt was to have been a routine
marijuana bust. Previons ruon-
naissance had already iocaud tho
thriving plants in the back yard of a
small Sdma, CaIifornia house in the
San Joaquia Va12ey. On May 29th,
1980 Michae! Dei Puppo artived
with severai othdr officers to save a
search wurant. The suspoct, who
was outside at the time, immediatslY
bolted for the front door, elosdY
pursued by the now shouting Dd
puppo and his partna who wete
commanding him to halt. The
suspax eaured ths house, stammiag
and tocking the door behind �iat.
Del Puppo aad his partner put their
shouSders to the door and tore it off
the frame. Michael Dd Puppo's
three-year ordral with PCP con-
taminaiion was about to begin.
At the back of the hotise tne
suspect pulled two baby bottta fiU-
ed w3th a cleaz yellowish Gquid ont
of a kitchen refrigerator. Sustaining
a momantam of shcer paaic, he
ktcked open the back door and burst
inta the yard ia a single motion,
easily brushing aside an officer who
had ban placed at the door shoutd
an effort have been made to dispou
af the marijuana. Sighting two
oiher officers at the back of the
yard, he sropped abruptly and was
lmmediately hit from behind by the
two trailing offtcers. One of the bot-
tla had already been tossed into a
flower bed. As the ofticers struggied
to wrestie the suspect to the ground.
he qvicklY rano�ed the top of the
second botUt a�d dispatched the
contents ova his shouider, not on to
che ground as he had hoped, but in-
to che faa of dotective Det Puppo.
As IId Puppo dcscriba it, his
face was insiandy ••on fitt^ and his
mouth wss fl11cd with a"hotribly
yetter" taste. Several otha officers
thp� tore the suspcct away and
�and-cuffed him. Qunies as to the
contents of the bottle brought a
derisive reply: "Water, man.
water.•�
For Leonazd Vffiahettnosa, PCP
represented a far less dramatie. bat
far more insidious turn of eveau.

was involved ia the diunencling of
nearly a doun PCP labs.

ficen spent an average�of four to
five hours moving in and out of a
laboratory. They regulazly got PCP
and otha chemicats on thar haads
and breathed in the vapors through
the air.
By the ead of i480 his physical
and mental health had deteriorated

Del Puppo and Villahercnosa
• (who arrived at the Detox center
through the refetrai of a
psychologist) had a variety of ex-
periences while goiag through the
purificatioa procas. Dd Puppo Wc-
perienced a "doudy" fsding for
s�verai daYS and then, after nine
days on the program, had a full
biown "flashback^. As he was sii-

�idered it impossible to remove some
chemical subafances that have be-
mme lodged in bodily �ssues.
Some 48 disiinct chemi�aLs �ave
been identi&ed.in hun�an fat ti�ues,
pach one of wluch has known rnga-
tive health effects in'humans or ani-
maLs. The nozmal expectation was
�ldt Si1Ci1 SI1175fdIiCES wo111d �main
locked within the body for the dw�a-
tion oF one's life.
Recent preliminary studies of toxic
bicraccumufation and meazis of m
dudng accumulated chemicai iesi-
dues, however, have proven quite
promising. For the past few yeazs, re-
searchers for the FoundaCon for Ad-
vancements in Sdence and Educa-
tion, at L.os Angeles, have bern
studying the Hubbard Method of dr
to�Ficaiion—a technique developed
in 1978 by researcher L. Ron Hub-
bazd. The procedure arose out of ob-
seroations he noted in individuals
who had previously ingested toxic
materials subjectively and appeared
� to have improved physical and men-
tal health after mmpleting a pro-
gram.
The Hubba� Method or regimen is
a precisely monirored program con-
sisting primarily of seven parts:
• Polyunsaturated oil supplemenh,
• Aerobic exerase;
• Sauna at 14Q to 18t1 degrees F to
induce sweating;
• Nutritiona! supplements (vit�
mins and aunerals} rentered around
gradually ;ncreasing doses of niacin,
which promores the release of toxic
substances from tissues;
• Calcium and magnesivaa suppl�
ments;
• Water and salts taken as needed
to avert dehydration or salt depletion
due ro mncentrated sweating;
• An orderly daily schedule with
balanred meals and adeqvate sleep.
T'he length of the program may
vary according to the partidpant, but
� ihe avenge is 24 days.
A recrnt study of this method was
carcied out on Michigan residents
who had been heavily exposed to
the fire-retaxBant chemical, PBB
(polybrominated biphenyl}, in the
early 147C�. The Sre-xetazdant was
acddentally substituted in place of a
nulriCOnal supplement for farm ani-
maLs. The contamination of ineat
milk, and a variety of othez foods m-
suited in the ingesaon of che chemi-
ca! by virtually the entire population
of Michigan—a tragedy de#ailed in
the book (and sulsequent TV movie)
Hirter Haruest.
In the Michigan study, pazticipants
were fiist extensively tested to deter
mine the leve3s of PBB, PCBs, and
other toxic substances in their bodies.
(Studies kuve already es�blished that
it takes 10 ro 20 years or morn for the
stored residues of these cheaticals ro
be reduced nahually by one�hatf.j
T'hus, the partiapants were selfson-
trolled against their own baseline
Sevefs of mntaminants as established
prior to treatment.
The twcic levels were established
by qvantitaave analysis of adipose
tissue (fat} samples, vsing solvent ex-
traction and gas chromatography/
mass spectrometry. The analysis was
done by Hazieron Iaborataries of
Madison, Wisconsin. The tesis m-
vealed six metabdized variants (me-
tabolites) of PBB and seven metabo-
lites of PCB, as well as the insecti-
ddes DDE (a metabolite of DD'17,
Heptachlor, Epoxide, and Dieltirin.
Following the mmpletion of the prr
saibed Hubbard Regimen, the pattia-
pants were again tested. Dr. I?avid
Schnaxe, a poticy analyist for the
U. S. Environmental Protection
Agency, who tnok part in the Michi-
gan study, staced that the Hubbani
pmgram brought about an immedi-
ate average reduction in approxi-
marely 20 per cent of all 2b chemi-
caLs studied.
Even more significant, however,
wem rhe results of a four-month fol-
low-up examination that revealed an
average mduc�on oF mone than 40
per cent for atl chemicals. Br. David
Katan, medical director at a Los An-
geles clssuc, which delivets the Hub-
bazd prog:am, stated that the follow-
up analysis "might possibly indicate
that the Hubimrd Regimen rehabiIitates
a nahual mechanism for the elimina-
Hon of roxins finm the body."
lndividuals who have completed the
ot-3��
Hubbmd.Re%'+ne" PTOBram in M'id�i-
gan and elsewheze have expms�ed
relief fxom a vaziety of expcscu�e-
xelated maladies, including problems
re}ated to ptior use of "street" dntgs
and even open soxcs, apparenfly
stemming fmm the Vietnam defoli='
ant, Agent Orange.
WIu7e efforts to mmove toxic avb
stanres from the envimnment must
crrtainly be mntinued, steps must
atso be taken to e2iminate the poMn-
tial health hazards fadng those ex-
posed to such mxins. In a ment es-
say,' Dr. Schnare emptasizes that
now is the time to take advantage of
aQpmaches to xcducing the biologi-
cally accumulated load of Eoreign
chemicals in h "Work on the
unpolluting of man must ntch up
and pass the polluting of man,"
writes Dr. Schnaxe.
Given the fact that more than 2(1
million Americans work with chemi-
ds known to be toxic to the nervous
system and other parts of the body,
the potential benefits of deto�ra-
tion techniques such as t}ut devel-
oped by Hubbard are immense.
If, az the HuGSard Reg'unen seems to
indicate, cheaucal toxins can be xe
moved safely and effectively fios
the body, then it may be possible M
xe.wlve the entire pmblem oF human
contamination and chesnirally ie-
lated disease. Sl

O1-12-01
WIiSRgAS, 3oseph Schumacher (File 00-151-254) has applied to rezone property at
330 Prior Avenue North from RT-1�(Two-Family Residential) to OS-1 (Office-
Service), legally described as (see file), for the purpose of developing a
purification center, and
wxEREAS, the Zoning Committee of the Planning Commission on O1/04/O1 held a
public hearing at which a11 persons present were given an opportunity to be
heard pursuant to said application in accordance with the requirements of
Section 64.300 0£ the Saint Paul Legislative Code; and
WHEREAS, Saint Paul Planning Commission, based on the evidence presented to
its Zoning Committee at the public hearing as substantially reflected in the
minutes, made the following findings of fact:
1. The applicant has owned this property since 1989. The property
previously was a church structure which the applicant converted into a
residential use. The applicant currently sesides on site and also runs
a home occupation wood working business from the site. The structure
also has one residential rental unit in the basement level. Available
o£f street parking consists of a two bay garage and one carport space.
The applicant is proposing to operate a purification center within the
building. The purification center, which is similar to a sauna, would
operate seven days a week from about 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Purification
treatments consist o£ 2 i/: to S houz daily sessions that average 2 to 4
weeks in duration. Up to ten clients at a time would be using the
center. The applicant would replace the basement rental unit with the
purification cenCer. The 1,150 square foot center would be operated by
the applicant along with help from his son and daughter. The applicant
would continue to reside on site but would eventually discontinue his
woodworking business.
Off street parking requirements for the combined pu=ification center and
single residential unit would be 6 spaces. Currently, three off street
parking spaces are available. Under the "Rule oP Five", no additional
parking spaces would be required.

2. The proposed rezoning is consistent with the comprehensive plan.
The 1999 Land Use Plan states, "In txaditional neighborhoods, the City
will support compatible mixed use within'single bui2dings and in �
separate buildings in close proximity." Objective 5.2.1.
3. The rezoning is consistent with the way the area has developed and
rezoning the property will have not have an adverse impact upon the
neighborhood. This portion of Prior Avenue is a designated minor
arterial and carries approximately 6,500 vehicles a day. To the north,_
immediately adjacent to the property is a nonconforming office building
that has eight tenants. A block north, along Prior Ave, is another
nonconforming office building. To the East, immediately adjacent to the
property is a nonconforming residential six-plex. Immediately west of
the property across Prior Avenue is the playground for the Merriam Park
Community center and the Longfellow Humanities elementary magnet school.
In light of this mixture of land uses, rezoning this property to OS-1 is
compatible to this immediate neighborhood.
4. The intent of the RT-1 zoning district states: "The RT-1 Two-
Family Residential district is designed to afford a transition of use in
existing housing areas by permitting new construction or conversion of
existing structures between adjacent residential and commercial, office,
thoroughfares or other uses which would affect residential character."
The OS-1 zoning district is intended to accommodate various types of
office uses performing administrative, professional and personal
services and to serve as a transitional use between the more intensive
uses of land such as major thoroughfares or commercial districts and the
less intensive_uses of land such as one-family residential. Permitted
professional uses include massage centers which are simiZar in nature to
the applicant's proposed purification center.
5. The applicant submitted a sufEicient petition of two-thirds of the
property owners within one hundred (100) feet of the property stating
support for the rezoning (10 parcels eligible, 7 parcels required, and 7
parcels signed).
Therefore, Be It Resolved, based on findings 1 through 5, the Planning
Commission recommends to the Saint Pau1 City CounciZ approvaZ of the
application to rezone the property at 's'su Frior 1-:�enue :�cr*_h from RT
OS-1.

PIIRPO58: Application to rezone from RT-1 to OS-1.
PARCBL SIZE: The parcel is 75' X 75' fox a total of 5,625 square feet.
EXISTING LAND IISE: Former church structure converted into a residential
structure in a RT-1 zoning district.
LAND VSE:
North: Nonconforming commercial office structure in an RT-1 zoning
district
East: Nonconforming six unit residential structure in an RT-1 zoning
district.
South: Single family residential structure in an RT-1 zoning district
West: Elementary grade school and community park in an RT-1 zoning
district.
E. ZONING COD$ CITATION: Section 64.400(a) states in part, "the council may
from time to time, amend, supplement or change the district boundaries
or the regulations herein, or subsequently established herein pursuant
to the provisions of Minnesota Statutes Section 462.357 and dmendments
thereto as may be make from time to time. The planning commission may
from time to time, review district boundary lines to determine if,
pursuant to state laws, such district boundary lines should be changed.
Section 64.400(b) states in part that "an amendment to the zoning code
may be initiated by the council, the planning commission or by petition
of the owners of sixty-seven (67) percent of the area of the property to
be rezoned."
F. HISTORY/DISCUSSION: In 1996, a lot coverage variance was granted to
construct an attached garage. The previous lot coverage was 41.8�. With
the variance, the 1ot coverage is now 50.6°s". Last August, the applicant �
submitted, but withdrew, an application to rezone the property to B-2.
G. DISTRICT COIINCIL RECO2gffiNDATION: The Merriam Park Community Council on
August 9, 2000 recommended approval of the rezoning to B-2 with the
condition that a restrictive covenant be placed on the property limiting
any future uses to an OS-1 classification. In a December 7, 2000
message, the MPCC has indicated it supports the rezoning even though it
has changed from B-2 to OS-1.
H. FINDSNGS:
1. The applicant has owned this property since 1989. The property
previously was a church structure which the applicant converted into a
residential use. The applicant currently resides on site and also runs
a home occupation wood working business from the site. The structure
also has one residential rental unit in the basement level. Available
off street parking consists of a two bay garage and one carport space.
The applicant is proposing to operate a purification center within the
building. The purification center, which is similar to a sauna, would
operate seven days a week from about 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Purification
treatments consist of 2 �4 to 5 hour daily sessions that average 2 to 4
weeks in duration_ Up to ten clients at a time would be using the
center. The applicant would replace the basement rental unit with the
purification center. The 1,150 square foot center would be operated by
the applicant along with help from his son and daughter. The applicant .
would continue to reside on site but woulci eventually discontinue his
woodworking business.
Off street parking requirements for the combined purification center and
single residential unit would be 6 spaces. Currently, three off street
parking spaces are available. Under the "Rule of Five", no additional
parking spaces would be required.
2. The proposed rezoning is consistent with the comprehensive plan.
The 1999 Land Use Plan states, "In traditional neighborhoods, the City
wi11 support 'compatibie mixed use wi�tiir, si;=g�a buila=^_gs, and in �
separate buildings in close proximity." Objective 5.2.1.
3. The rezoning is consistent with the way the area has developed and
rezoning the property will have not have an adverse impact upon the
neighborhood. This portion of Prior Avenue is a designated minor
arterial and carries approximately 6,500 vehicles a day. To the north,
immediately adjacent to the property is a nonconforming office building
that has eight tenants. A block north, along Prior Ave, is another
nonconforming office building. To the Sast, immediately adjacent to the
property is a nonconforming residential six-plex. Immediately west of
the property across Prior Avenue is the playground for the Merriam Park
Community center and the Longfellow Humanities elementary magnet school.
In light of this mixture of land uses, rezoning this property to OS-1 is
compatible to this immediate neighborhood. �
o � -i��
4. The intent of the RT-1 zoning district states: "The RT-1 Two-
� Family Residential district is designed to afford a transition of use in
existing housing areas by permitting new construction or conversion of
existing structures between adjacent residential and commercial, office,
thoroughfares or other uses which would affect residential character."
The OS-1 zoning district is intended to accommodate various types of
office uses performing administrative, professional and personal
services and to serve as a transitional use between the more intensive
uses o£ land such as major thorough£ares or commercial districts and the
less intensive uses of land such as one-family residential. Permitted
professional uses include massage centers which are similar in nature to
the applicant's proposed purification centes'.
5. The applicant submitted a sufficient petition of two-thirds of the
property owners within one hundred (100) feet of the property stating
support for the rezoning (10 parcels eligible, 7 parcels required, and 7
parcels signed).
I. STAFF R$COhIIdSNDATION: Based on findings 1 thxough 5, staff recommends
approval of the application to rezone the property at 330 Prior Avenue
North from RT-1 to OS-l.

, THE PURIFICATION PROGRAM
My Opinions and Observations
This program, with exercise, vitamins in exacting and increasing
amounts, and e�ensive sauna and sweating rimes, produces phenomenal
resuits. It is a perfect program for fuemen, police, athletes, workers eaposed
to chemicals, people who have had medical operations and drugs, painters,
nuclear plant workers and others exposed to radiation from sunbum, tanning
beds, x-rays, as well as computer and television screens. It is my opinion
and belief that everyone could benefit from doing this program.
While I was on the program, my gums went numb for two days from
Novocain being released. My body then turned completely red (lil:e the
worst sunburn you could imagine) from over-exposure in a tannuig saton.
This lasted forl 1 /4 hours, then I was completely white again. The next day, I
turned only half as red for one-half hour. On day five of the program I
began to see evidence of chemicals from my job (refmishing antiques) being
� sweated out. I stood up in the sauna and the color of my well-worn and
well-washed swimmuig trunks was left on the towel I had been sitting on. It
scared me. This went on day after day for eight to nine days. Each day the
fresh white towel was green in color from the toxic chemicals I was
sweating out bleeding out the color of my swim trunks. Finally, there was
no color exchange on the to�vei. I felt good and actually ran a full two miles.
I never thought I would be able to do that. A few days later I was finished
with the program.
A 32 year-old male in Chicago who was on the program emerged
from the sauna one day �vith his back all red — except for four white letters
speliing out D-O-R-K. He recalled that when he was rivelve, his brother had
spelled out "dork" on his back with sun screen lotion while he slept in the
sun. Go figure.
For some on the program, symptoms of chemicals leaving the body
are more dramatic, and for others barely noticeable. A hairdresser doing the
program will smell of perm solution. A lifeguard will smell of chlorine. An
alcoholic tivould smell of alcohol. A gradual approach is required on the
� program to minimize discomfort.
/
T
So many chemicats, drugs and toxins that a person is exposed to in •
life remain in the body in minute amounts, and, in certain instances, dislodge
from the cetls, circulate in the blood, and cause bodily and mental .
dysfunction. `Fhese same chemicals can then re-lodge in the cells only to
affect the person again later in life. These chemicals run the gamut from
food preservatives, cough syrup in childtiood, etc. to anesthesia, to teenage
street drugs. You see professional athletes making mental mistakes in
games because of This phenomena. Most athletes are quite healthy, and
likely limit drug intake. But �vhat about the common person - driving
motor vehicles, operating machinery, flying planes, handling guns? Take
this all the way do�vn to the person giving back change at McDonalds.
Drugs in the body cause mental dullness, blankness and apparent stupidity.
Dnzgs and toxins are antipatheric to a body and mind.
From nausea and headaches due to radiation accumulation, to the
multitude of effects of drugs and toxins — aII can be lessened to a great
e�tent by doing the Purification Program - leaving a person clean, bright and
enthusiastic about life again. Thus — clear body equals cleaz mind. This is a
program from which all can benefit. As Mayor Norm Coleman would say,
"This is good for St. Paul". �
In conclusioq it is my goal and intention through this program to
increase awazeness throughout communities of the harmfui effects of drugs
and to�ns, thereby lessening the effects of the devastation in the workplace,
home and communities as a whole. I begin the quest in St. Paul — it's my
home.

Onerations Detaits
At this point in time, I operate an antique repair and restoration business — Prior
Restorarions. My intention is to start and run the Purification Center evenings (4:00 —
9:00 p.m.) when the majority of those wishing to do the program are available. Prior
Restorarion's business hours would be cut back, and eventually closed or moved from our
residence. Our current residence would expand to occupy that space. The Purification
Center will occupy the downstairs (basement), which is currently a rental unit (332 No.
Prior). This will require the construction of a sauna and the remodeling of the two
existing bathrooms. No outside work wili be needed (other than the work already in
progress).
Those doing the program are required to be twinned or paired, thereby ensuring
safety while in the sauna or jogging in the park. Ideally, four to six persons will be on the
program at any given time, with staggered start times (e.g. two start at 4:00, two start anY
4:15, etc.). Participants will be asked to park across the street along the Merriam Park
side of Prior. Under the tenets of running a purification center, I will be held to strict
ethical conduct in all aspects of operation.
I have run Prior Restorations successfully for over 10 yeazs now as a"home
occupation" under the existing zoning classification for our property. The only reason
the purification program cannot be run as a home occupation is that I will be servicing
� more than one person at a time, thereby requiring this zoning change. The category best
fitting the described use is OS-1 Office Services.
We feel that the purification program is a more befitting service to the
neighborhood and community than a refinishing shop, fitting in nicely with other nearby
businesses, such as therapeutic massage, chiropractic and herbal therapy. Any signage
for the Purification Center would be limited to that of a home occupation.
I did the purification program early last yeaz in Florida because of accumulated
chemicals in my body - the result of years of working in the refinishing business. I found
the result so worthwhile that I looked into how I could delivery the program locally to
others. The oniy economically feasible option to deliver the program at this point in time
is in my home.

Merriam Park Purification Center
The Purification Program is the first and only effective method for releasing
and removing lodged drugs, toxins and other pollutants from the body.
• Running is done for 20-30 minutes to get the blood circulating deeper
into the tissues where residuals are lodged, and loosens then releases
them.
• Immediately following running is sauna time to flush the disiodged
toxins by sweating.
• Regular nutrition with additional vitamins, minerals and oiis taken in
exact amounts help the body flush out toxins and repair damaged
areas affected by drugs and taxic residuals.
• A proper schedule with sufficient rest is mandatory.
�
The program is done only after a full medical examination, and with a
doctor's approval. No one with anemia, heart problems or liver problems
may do the program, nor anyone currenfly on drugs. No one with an
extensive psychiatric treatment history may do the program.
The averaga length of time on the program is trvo to four weeks, at 3-5 hours �
per day. Pro�ess through the program is closely supervised to help ensure
one gets through each step of the program — in liaison with a medical doctor
as needed.
The entire program is outlined and described in detail in the book Clear
Bodv. Clear Mind by L. Rom Hubbard.

PCP Nightmare flver
for Narcotics afficers
br xonec warner
lt was to have been a routine
marijuana bust. Previons ruon-
naissance had already iocaud tho
thriving plants in the back yard of a
small Sdma, CaIifornia house in the
San Joaquia Va12ey. On May 29th,
1980 Michae! Dei Puppo artived
with severai othdr officers to save a
search wurant. The suspoct, who
was outside at the time, immediatslY
bolted for the front door, elosdY
pursued by the now shouting Dd
puppo and his partna who wete
commanding him to halt. The
suspax eaured ths house, stammiag
and tocking the door behind �iat.
Del Puppo aad his partner put their
shouSders to the door and tore it off
the frame. Michael Dd Puppo's
three-year ordral with PCP con-
taminaiion was about to begin.
At the back of the hotise tne
suspect pulled two baby bottta fiU-
ed w3th a cleaz yellowish Gquid ont
of a kitchen refrigerator. Sustaining
a momantam of shcer paaic, he
ktcked open the back door and burst
inta the yard ia a single motion,
easily brushing aside an officer who
had ban placed at the door shoutd
an effort have been made to dispou
af the marijuana. Sighting two
oiher officers at the back of the
yard, he sropped abruptly and was
lmmediately hit from behind by the
two trailing offtcers. One of the bot-
tla had already been tossed into a
flower bed. As the ofticers struggied
to wrestie the suspect to the ground.
he qvicklY rano�ed the top of the
second botUt a�d dispatched the
contents ova his shouider, not on to
che ground as he had hoped, but in-
to che faa of dotective Det Puppo.
As IId Puppo dcscriba it, his
face was insiandy ••on fitt^ and his
mouth wss fl11cd with a"hotribly
yetter" taste. Several otha officers
thp� tore the suspcct away and
�and-cuffed him. Qunies as to the
contents of the bottle brought a
derisive reply: "Water, man.

For Leonazd Vffiahettnosa, PCP

ficen spent an average�of four to
five hours moving in and out of a
laboratory. They regulazly got PCP
and otha chemicats on thar haads

By the ead of i480 his physical
and mental health had deteriorated

Part of this reseazch delay is no
doubt due to the fact that many sd-
ntists and physidans have long con-
�idered it impossible to remove some
chemical subafances that have be-
mme lodged in bodily �ssues.
Some 48 disiinct chemi�aLs �ave
been identi&ed.in hun�an fat ti�ues,
pach one of wluch has known rnga-
tive health effects in'humans or ani-
maLs. The nozmal expectation was
�ldt Si1Ci1 SI1175fdIiCES wo111d �main
locked within the body for the dw�a-
tion oF one's life.
Recent preliminary studies of toxic
bicraccumufation and meazis of m
dudng accumulated chemicai iesi-
dues, however, have proven quite
promising. For the past few yeazs, re-
searchers for the FoundaCon for Ad-
vancements in Sdence and Educa-
tion, at L.os Angeles, have bern
studying the Hubbard Method of dr
to�Ficaiion—a technique developed
in 1978 by researcher L. Ron Hub-
bazd. The procedure arose out of ob-
seroations he noted in individuals
who had previously ingested toxic
materials subjectively and appeared
� to have improved physical and men-
tal health after mmpleting a pro-
gram.
The Hubba� Method or regimen is
a precisely monirored program con-
sisting primarily of seven parts:
• Polyunsaturated oil supplemenh,
• Aerobic exerase;
• Sauna at 14Q to 18t1 degrees F to
induce sweating;
• Nutritiona! supplements (vit�
mins and aunerals} rentered around
gradually ;ncreasing doses of niacin,
which promores the release of toxic
substances from tissues;
• Calcium and magnesivaa suppl�
ments;
• Water and salts taken as needed
to avert dehydration or salt depletion
due ro mncentrated sweating;
• An orderly daily schedule with
balanred meals and adeqvate sleep.
T'he length of the program may
vary according to the partidpant, but
� ihe avenge is 24 days.
A recrnt study of this method was
carcied out on Michigan residents
who had been heavily exposed to
the fire-retaxBant chemical, PBB
(polybrominated biphenyl}, in the
early 147C�. The Sre-xetazdant was
acddentally substituted in place of a
nulriCOnal supplement for farm ani-
maLs. The contamination of ineat
milk, and a variety of othez foods m-
suited in the ingesaon of che chemi-
ca! by virtually the entire population
of Michigan—a tragedy de#ailed in
the book (and sulsequent TV movie)
Hirter Haruest.
In the Michigan study, pazticipants
were fiist extensively tested to deter
mine the leve3s of PBB, PCBs, and
other toxic substances in their bodies.
(Studies kuve already es�blished that
it takes 10 ro 20 years or morn for the
stored residues of these cheaticals ro
be reduced nahually by one�hatf.j
T'hus, the partiapants were selfson-
trolled against their own baseline
Sevefs of mntaminants as established
prior to treatment.
The twcic levels were established
by qvantitaave analysis of adipose
tissue (fat} samples, vsing solvent ex-
traction and gas chromatography/
mass spectrometry. The analysis was
done by Hazieron Iaborataries of
Madison, Wisconsin. The tesis m-
vealed six metabdized variants (me-
tabolites) of PBB and seven metabo-
lites of PCB, as well as the insecti-
ddes DDE (a metabolite of DD'17,
Heptachlor, Epoxide, and Dieltirin.
Following the mmpletion of the prr
saibed Hubbard Regimen, the pattia-
pants were again tested. Dr. I?avid
Schnaxe, a poticy analyist for the
U. S. Environmental Protection
Agency, who tnok part in the Michi-
gan study, staced that the Hubbani
pmgram brought about an immedi-
ate average reduction in approxi-
marely 20 per cent of all 2b chemi-
caLs studied.
Even more significant, however,
wem rhe results of a four-month fol-
low-up examination that revealed an
average mduc�on oF mone than 40
per cent for atl chemicals. Br. David
Katan, medical director at a Los An-
geles clssuc, which delivets the Hub-
bazd prog:am, stated that the follow-
up analysis "might possibly indicate
that the Hubimrd Regimen rehabiIitates
a nahual mechanism for the elimina-
Hon of roxins finm the body."
lndividuals who have completed the
ot-3��
Hubbmd.Re%'+ne" PTOBram in M'id�i-
gan and elsewheze have expms�ed
relief fxom a vaziety of expcscu�e-
xelated maladies, including problems
re}ated to ptior use of "street" dntgs
and even open soxcs, apparenfly
stemming fmm the Vietnam defoli='
ant, Agent Orange.
WIu7e efforts to mmove toxic avb
stanres from the envimnment must
crrtainly be mntinued, steps must
atso be taken to e2iminate the poMn-
tial health hazards fadng those ex-
posed to such mxins. In a ment es-
say,' Dr. Schnare emptasizes that
now is the time to take advantage of
aQpmaches to xcducing the biologi-
cally accumulated load of Eoreign
chemicals in h "Work on the
unpolluting of man must ntch up
and pass the polluting of man,"
writes Dr. Schnaxe.
Given the fact that more than 2(1
million Americans work with chemi-
ds known to be toxic to the nervous
system and other parts of the body,
the potential benefits of deto�ra-
tion techniques such as t}ut devel-
oped by Hubbard are immense.
If, az the HuGSard Reg'unen seems to
indicate, cheaucal toxins can be xe
moved safely and effectively fios
the body, then it may be possible M
xe.wlve the entire pmblem oF human
contamination and chesnirally ie-
lated disease. Sl

O1-12-01
WIiSRgAS, 3oseph Schumacher (File 00-151-254) has applied to rezone property at
330 Prior Avenue North from RT-1�(Two-Family Residential) to OS-1 (Office-
Service), legally described as (see file), for the purpose of developing a
purification center, and
wxEREAS, the Zoning Committee of the Planning Commission on O1/04/O1 held a
public hearing at which a11 persons present were given an opportunity to be
heard pursuant to said application in accordance with the requirements of
Section 64.300 0£ the Saint Paul Legislative Code; and
WHEREAS, Saint Paul Planning Commission, based on the evidence presented to
its Zoning Committee at the public hearing as substantially reflected in the
minutes, made the following findings of fact:
1. The applicant has owned this property since 1989. The property
previously was a church structure which the applicant converted into a
residential use. The applicant currently sesides on site and also runs
a home occupation wood working business from the site. The structure
also has one residential rental unit in the basement level. Available
o£f street parking consists of a two bay garage and one carport space.
The applicant is proposing to operate a purification center within the
building. The purification center, which is similar to a sauna, would
operate seven days a week from about 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Purification
treatments consist o£ 2 i/: to S houz daily sessions that average 2 to 4
weeks in duration. Up to ten clients at a time would be using the
center. The applicant would replace the basement rental unit with the
purification cenCer. The 1,150 square foot center would be operated by
the applicant along with help from his son and daughter. The applicant
would continue to reside on site but would eventually discontinue his
woodworking business.
Off street parking requirements for the combined pu=ification center and
single residential unit would be 6 spaces. Currently, three off street
parking spaces are available. Under the "Rule oP Five", no additional
parking spaces would be required.

2. The proposed rezoning is consistent with the comprehensive plan.
The 1999 Land Use Plan states, "In txaditional neighborhoods, the City
will support compatible mixed use within'single bui2dings and in �
separate buildings in close proximity." Objective 5.2.1.
3. The rezoning is consistent with the way the area has developed and
rezoning the property will have not have an adverse impact upon the
neighborhood. This portion of Prior Avenue is a designated minor
arterial and carries approximately 6,500 vehicles a day. To the north,_
immediately adjacent to the property is a nonconforming office building
that has eight tenants. A block north, along Prior Ave, is another
nonconforming office building. To the East, immediately adjacent to the
property is a nonconforming residential six-plex. Immediately west of
the property across Prior Avenue is the playground for the Merriam Park
Community center and the Longfellow Humanities elementary magnet school.
In light of this mixture of land uses, rezoning this property to OS-1 is
compatible to this immediate neighborhood.
4. The intent of the RT-1 zoning district states: "The RT-1 Two-
Family Residential district is designed to afford a transition of use in
existing housing areas by permitting new construction or conversion of
existing structures between adjacent residential and commercial, office,
thoroughfares or other uses which would affect residential character."
The OS-1 zoning district is intended to accommodate various types of
office uses performing administrative, professional and personal
services and to serve as a transitional use between the more intensive
uses of land such as major thoroughfares or commercial districts and the
less intensive_uses of land such as one-family residential. Permitted
professional uses include massage centers which are simiZar in nature to
the applicant's proposed purification center.
5. The applicant submitted a sufEicient petition of two-thirds of the
property owners within one hundred (100) feet of the property stating
support for the rezoning (10 parcels eligible, 7 parcels required, and 7
parcels signed).
Therefore, Be It Resolved, based on findings 1 through 5, the Planning
Commission recommends to the Saint Pau1 City CounciZ approvaZ of the
application to rezone the property at 's'su Frior 1-:�enue :�cr*_h from RT
OS-1.

, THE PURIFICATION PROGRAM
My Opinions and Observations
This program, with exercise, vitamins in exacting and increasing
amounts, and e�ensive sauna and sweating rimes, produces phenomenal
resuits. It is a perfect program for fuemen, police, athletes, workers eaposed
to chemicals, people who have had medical operations and drugs, painters,
nuclear plant workers and others exposed to radiation from sunbum, tanning
beds, x-rays, as well as computer and television screens. It is my opinion
and belief that everyone could benefit from doing this program.
While I was on the program, my gums went numb for two days from
Novocain being released. My body then turned completely red (lil:e the
worst sunburn you could imagine) from over-exposure in a tannuig saton.
This lasted forl 1 /4 hours, then I was completely white again. The next day, I
turned only half as red for one-half hour. On day five of the program I
began to see evidence of chemicals from my job (refmishing antiques) being
� sweated out. I stood up in the sauna and the color of my well-worn and
well-washed swimmuig trunks was left on the towel I had been sitting on. It
scared me. This went on day after day for eight to nine days. Each day the
fresh white towel was green in color from the toxic chemicals I was
sweating out bleeding out the color of my swim trunks. Finally, there was
no color exchange on the to�vei. I felt good and actually ran a full two miles.
I never thought I would be able to do that. A few days later I was finished
with the program.
A 32 year-old male in Chicago who was on the program emerged
from the sauna one day �vith his back all red — except for four white letters
speliing out D-O-R-K. He recalled that when he was rivelve, his brother had
spelled out "dork" on his back with sun screen lotion while he slept in the
sun. Go figure.
For some on the program, symptoms of chemicals leaving the body
are more dramatic, and for others barely noticeable. A hairdresser doing the
program will smell of perm solution. A lifeguard will smell of chlorine. An
alcoholic tivould smell of alcohol. A gradual approach is required on the
� program to minimize discomfort.
/
T
So many chemicats, drugs and toxins that a person is exposed to in •
life remain in the body in minute amounts, and, in certain instances, dislodge
from the cetls, circulate in the blood, and cause bodily and mental .
dysfunction. `Fhese same chemicals can then re-lodge in the cells only to
affect the person again later in life. These chemicals run the gamut from
food preservatives, cough syrup in childtiood, etc. to anesthesia, to teenage
street drugs. You see professional athletes making mental mistakes in
games because of This phenomena. Most athletes are quite healthy, and
likely limit drug intake. But �vhat about the common person - driving
motor vehicles, operating machinery, flying planes, handling guns? Take
this all the way do�vn to the person giving back change at McDonalds.
Drugs in the body cause mental dullness, blankness and apparent stupidity.
Dnzgs and toxins are antipatheric to a body and mind.
From nausea and headaches due to radiation accumulation, to the
multitude of effects of drugs and toxins — aII can be lessened to a great
e�tent by doing the Purification Program - leaving a person clean, bright and
enthusiastic about life again. Thus — clear body equals cleaz mind. This is a
program from which all can benefit. As Mayor Norm Coleman would say,
"This is good for St. Paul". �
In conclusioq it is my goal and intention through this program to
increase awazeness throughout communities of the harmfui effects of drugs
and to�ns, thereby lessening the effects of the devastation in the workplace,
home and communities as a whole. I begin the quest in St. Paul — it's my
home.

Onerations Detaits
At this point in time, I operate an antique repair and restoration business — Prior
Restorarions. My intention is to start and run the Purification Center evenings (4:00 —
9:00 p.m.) when the majority of those wishing to do the program are available. Prior
Restorarion's business hours would be cut back, and eventually closed or moved from our
residence. Our current residence would expand to occupy that space. The Purification
Center will occupy the downstairs (basement), which is currently a rental unit (332 No.
Prior). This will require the construction of a sauna and the remodeling of the two
existing bathrooms. No outside work wili be needed (other than the work already in
progress).
Those doing the program are required to be twinned or paired, thereby ensuring
safety while in the sauna or jogging in the park. Ideally, four to six persons will be on the
program at any given time, with staggered start times (e.g. two start at 4:00, two start anY
4:15, etc.). Participants will be asked to park across the street along the Merriam Park
side of Prior. Under the tenets of running a purification center, I will be held to strict
ethical conduct in all aspects of operation.
I have run Prior Restorations successfully for over 10 yeazs now as a"home
occupation" under the existing zoning classification for our property. The only reason
the purification program cannot be run as a home occupation is that I will be servicing
� more than one person at a time, thereby requiring this zoning change. The category best
fitting the described use is OS-1 Office Services.
We feel that the purification program is a more befitting service to the
neighborhood and community than a refinishing shop, fitting in nicely with other nearby
businesses, such as therapeutic massage, chiropractic and herbal therapy. Any signage
for the Purification Center would be limited to that of a home occupation.
I did the purification program early last yeaz in Florida because of accumulated
chemicals in my body - the result of years of working in the refinishing business. I found
the result so worthwhile that I looked into how I could delivery the program locally to
others. The oniy economically feasible option to deliver the program at this point in time
is in my home.
LJ
Merriam Park Purification Center
The Purification Program is the first and only effective method for releasing
and removing lodged drugs, toxins and other pollutants from the body.
• Running is done for 20-30 minutes to get the blood circulating deeper
into the tissues where residuals are lodged, and loosens then releases
them.
• Immediately following running is sauna time to flush the disiodged
toxins by sweating.
• Regular nutrition with additional vitamins, minerals and oiis taken in
exact amounts help the body flush out toxins and repair damaged
areas affected by drugs and taxic residuals.
• A proper schedule with sufficient rest is mandatory.
�
The program is done only after a full medical examination, and with a
doctor's approval. No one with anemia, heart problems or liver problems
may do the program, nor anyone currenfly on drugs. No one with an
extensive psychiatric treatment history may do the program.
The averaga length of time on the program is trvo to four weeks, at 3-5 hours �
per day. Pro�ess through the program is closely supervised to help ensure
one gets through each step of the program — in liaison with a medical doctor
as needed.
The entire program is outlined and described in detail in the book Clear
Bodv. Clear Mind by L. Rom Hubbard.

PCP Nightmare flver
for Narcotics afficers
br xonec warner
lt was to have been a routine
marijuana bust. Previons ruon-
naissance had already iocaud tho
thriving plants in the back yard of a
small Sdma, CaIifornia house in the
San Joaquia Va12ey. On May 29th,
1980 Michae! Dei Puppo artived
with severai othdr officers to save a
search wurant. The suspoct, who
was outside at the time, immediatslY
bolted for the front door, elosdY
pursued by the now shouting Dd
puppo and his partna who wete
commanding him to halt. The
suspax eaured ths house, stammiag
and tocking the door behind �iat.
Del Puppo aad his partner put their
shouSders to the door and tore it off
the frame. Michael Dd Puppo's
three-year ordral with PCP con-
taminaiion was about to begin.
At the back of the hotise tne
suspect pulled two baby bottta fiU-
ed w3th a cleaz yellowish Gquid ont
of a kitchen refrigerator. Sustaining
a momantam of shcer paaic, he
ktcked open the back door and burst
inta the yard ia a single motion,
easily brushing aside an officer who
had ban placed at the door shoutd
an effort have been made to dispou
af the marijuana. Sighting two
oiher officers at the back of the
yard, he sropped abruptly and was
lmmediately hit from behind by the
two trailing offtcers. One of the bot-
tla had already been tossed into a
flower bed. As the ofticers struggied
to wrestie the suspect to the ground.
he qvicklY rano�ed the top of the
second botUt a�d dispatched the
contents ova his shouider, not on to
che ground as he had hoped, but in-
to che faa of dotective Det Puppo.
As IId Puppo dcscriba it, his
face was insiandy ••on fitt^ and his
mouth wss fl11cd with a"hotribly
yetter" taste. Several otha officers
thp� tore the suspcct away and
�and-cuffed him. Qunies as to the
contents of the bottle brought a
derisive reply: "Water, man.
water.•�
For Leonazd Vffiahettnosa, PCP
represented a far less dramatie. bat

was involved ia the diunencling of
nearly a doun PCP labs.

ficen spent an average�of four to
five hours moving in and out of a
laboratory. They regulazly got PCP
and otha chemicats on thar haads
and breathed in the vapors through
the air.
By the ead of i480 his physical
and mental health had deteriorated

Del Puppo and Villahercnosa

s�verai daYS and then, after nine
days on the program, had a full

Part of this reseazch delay is no
doubt due to the fact that many sd-
ntists and physidans have long con-
�idered it impossible to remove some
chemical subafances that have be-
mme lodged in bodily �ssues.
Some 48 disiinct chemi�aLs �ave
been identi&ed.in hun�an fat ti�ues,
pach one of wluch has known rnga-
tive health effects in'humans or ani-
maLs. The nozmal expectation was
�ldt Si1Ci1 SI1175fdIiCES wo111d �main
locked within the body for the dw�a-
tion oF one's life.
Recent preliminary studies of toxic
bicraccumufation and meazis of m
dudng accumulated chemicai iesi-
dues, however, have proven quite
promising. For the past few yeazs, re-
searchers for the FoundaCon for Ad-
vancements in Sdence and Educa-
tion, at L.os Angeles, have bern
studying the Hubbard Method of dr
to�Ficaiion—a technique developed
in 1978 by researcher L. Ron Hub-
bazd. The procedure arose out of ob-
seroations he noted in individuals
who had previously ingested toxic
materials subjectively and appeared
� to have improved physical and men-
tal health after mmpleting a pro-
gram.
The Hubba� Method or regimen is
a precisely monirored program con-
sisting primarily of seven parts:
• Polyunsaturated oil supplemenh,
• Aerobic exerase;
• Sauna at 14Q to 18t1 degrees F to
induce sweating;
• Nutritiona! supplements (vit�
mins and aunerals} rentered around
gradually ;ncreasing doses of niacin,
which promores the release of toxic
substances from tissues;
• Calcium and magnesivaa suppl�
ments;
• Water and salts taken as needed
to avert dehydration or salt depletion
due ro mncentrated sweating;
• An orderly daily schedule with
balanred meals and adeqvate sleep.
T'he length of the program may
vary according to the partidpant, but
� ihe avenge is 24 days.
A recrnt study of this method was
carcied out on Michigan residents
who had been heavily exposed to
the fire-retaxBant chemical, PBB
(polybrominated biphenyl}, in the
early 147C�. The Sre-xetazdant was
acddentally substituted in place of a
nulriCOnal supplement for farm ani-
maLs. The contamination of ineat
milk, and a variety of othez foods m-
suited in the ingesaon of che chemi-
ca! by virtually the entire population
of Michigan—a tragedy de#ailed in
the book (and sulsequent TV movie)
Hirter Haruest.
In the Michigan study, pazticipants
were fiist extensively tested to deter
mine the leve3s of PBB, PCBs, and
other toxic substances in their bodies.
(Studies kuve already es�blished that
it takes 10 ro 20 years or morn for the
stored residues of these cheaticals ro
be reduced nahually by one�hatf.j
T'hus, the partiapants were selfson-
trolled against their own baseline
Sevefs of mntaminants as established
prior to treatment.
The twcic levels were established
by qvantitaave analysis of adipose
tissue (fat} samples, vsing solvent ex-
traction and gas chromatography/
mass spectrometry. The analysis was
done by Hazieron Iaborataries of
Madison, Wisconsin. The tesis m-
vealed six metabdized variants (me-
tabolites) of PBB and seven metabo-
lites of PCB, as well as the insecti-
ddes DDE (a metabolite of DD'17,
Heptachlor, Epoxide, and Dieltirin.
Following the mmpletion of the prr
saibed Hubbard Regimen, the pattia-
pants were again tested. Dr. I?avid
Schnaxe, a poticy analyist for the
U. S. Environmental Protection
Agency, who tnok part in the Michi-
gan study, staced that the Hubbani
pmgram brought about an immedi-
ate average reduction in approxi-
marely 20 per cent of all 2b chemi-
caLs studied.
Even more significant, however,
wem rhe results of a four-month fol-
low-up examination that revealed an
average mduc�on oF mone than 40
per cent for atl chemicals. Br. David
Katan, medical director at a Los An-
geles clssuc, which delivets the Hub-
bazd prog:am, stated that the follow-
up analysis "might possibly indicate
that the Hubimrd Regimen rehabiIitates
a nahual mechanism for the elimina-
Hon of roxins finm the body."
lndividuals who have completed the
ot-3��
Hubbmd.Re%'+ne" PTOBram in M'id�i-
gan and elsewheze have expms�ed
relief fxom a vaziety of expcscu�e-
xelated maladies, including problems
re}ated to ptior use of "street" dntgs
and even open soxcs, apparenfly
stemming fmm the Vietnam defoli='
ant, Agent Orange.
WIu7e efforts to mmove toxic avb
stanres from the envimnment must
crrtainly be mntinued, steps must
atso be taken to e2iminate the poMn-
tial health hazards fadng those ex-
posed to such mxins. In a ment es-
say,' Dr. Schnare emptasizes that
now is the time to take advantage of
aQpmaches to xcducing the biologi-
cally accumulated load of Eoreign
chemicals in h "Work on the
unpolluting of man must ntch up
and pass the polluting of man,"
writes Dr. Schnaxe.
Given the fact that more than 2(1
million Americans work with chemi-
ds known to be toxic to the nervous
system and other parts of the body,
the potential benefits of deto�ra-
tion techniques such as t}ut devel-
oped by Hubbard are immense.
If, az the HuGSard Reg'unen seems to
indicate, cheaucal toxins can be xe
moved safely and effectively fios
the body, then it may be possible M
xe.wlve the entire pmblem oF human
contamination and chesnirally ie-
lated disease. Sl
