Detox cheap and effectively without fasting - Lemonade & salad recipes

(NaturalNews) A very thorough detox can be expensive and challenging to complete. Some people who are very sick, or otherwise very toxic, need this kind of detoxification protocol, but most don't, and most cannot afford to spend hundreds, or even thousands of dollars on supplements. The good news is that with the right habits, you can detoxify all the time without doing a "detox" that takes up all of your time, energy, and money.

The trick to detoxifying without fasting is to eat foods that help you to detoxify the body and to drink plenty of water. Even better than water, here's a recipe to kick off your detoxification protocol.

Cranberry Lemonade Recipe

• Glass gallon jar
• Safe, clean, spring water or distilled water
• 1 cup of unsweetened, organic cranberry juice, not from concentrate
• 3 organic fresh lemons
• A citrus juicer
• Liquid stevia
• Liquid cayenne

Fill the jar to about 85% capacity with spring water (or distilled water). Squeeze the lemons and pour the juice into the water. Add cranberry juice. Add stevia to taste and then add cayenne to taste. The amount of cayenne used is up to you, but the more the better.

If you don't have access to a good source for spring water, use other clean, drinking water that does not contain fluoride. If you don't have access to organic lemons, use conventional. Fresh is best. If there are no fresh lemons, use organic bottled lemon juice. If you can't get cranberry juice that is not from concentrate, get the reconstituted kind (just don't get any kind of cranberry juice that has any other ingredients like sweeteners or other juices). If you can't stand cayenne, don't use it. No glass jar? Use plastic.

Since it's cranberry season again, if you have a blender, try whole cranberries instead of juicing them. You can also throw in some of the organic lemon peels, as much as you can stand to taste. (Only organic. Don't use peels from conventional lemons.) It's pretty sour, but it has lots of benefits.

If you have powdered cayenne and/or powdered stevia, use a blender to mix some of the liquid with the powders so they don't settle later.

The lemon juice will help flush the liver. The cranberry juice will help flush the kidneys. If you drink a lot of it, every day, you will feel an amazing difference in your health and vitality. This recipe is a far better choice for most people than the Master Cleanse.

Salad Recipe That Detoxifies

Produce detoxifies. Fresh, whole, raw vegetables, herbs, and fruits pull toxins from the body, repopulate healthy, beneficial gut bacteria, and give the body the nutrients it needs including enzymes and other phytonutrients that are almost non-existent in most modern diets.

Try to eat a huge salad every day with lots of greens, plenty of other colors, garlic, cilantro, ginger, and more. Check out this salad recipe.

The Salad Base

• Spinach
• Arugula (I prefer baby arugula, mature arugula tastes funky to me)
• Collard Greens
• Lettuce (mix it up, try an organic spring mix)
• Kale
• Beet greens (the tops of beets)
• Red cabbage
• Rainbow chard

Shredded, Grated

• Carrots
• Zucchini
• Beet root
• Diakon (or other radish)

Chopped, Diced

• Leeks
• Red onions
• Red and yellow bell peppers
• Cucumbers
• Cilantro

Extras

• Pomegranate seeds
• Raisins or dried cranberries
• Sesame seeds
• Ground papaya seeds and/or ground pepper
• Avocado
• Eggs
• Beans
• Garlic
• Turmeric
• Chia seeds

It's not an exact recipe, and it doesn't have to be. Mix it up. Try new things. My salads generally have about 15 ingredients. Make them big; make them diverse. Just imagine you're in nature, not modern society, and all you have to eat is nothing but a wide variety of the best, whole, fresh, healthy vegetables and herbs. This is what a big salad a day can do for you: it's life changing.

I throw in chick peas or a three-bean salad combination. If you're not vegan, try a sheep feta cheese with this salad, and throw on some eggs. It's good with meat, too, like chicken or steak.

Don't ruin it with a crappy salad dressing! All this salad needs is a little balsamic vinegar (apple cider is better, but I don't like the taste as much in my salads), or some fresh lemon juice or something. It doesn't take much.

Daily Habits for Constant Detoxification

• Breathe in deeply, fully and properly
• Eat a big salad every day (I make seven every Sunday)
• Drink lots of cranberry lemonade every day
• Bodyweight squats every day.

That last one is more important than you may think. We expel more toxins through our skin and breathing than we do through bowel movements and urination. Get up, sweat, get your heart rate going, and breathe! I recommend bodyweight squats because it's an important movement in nature (we used to squat a lot!), and it helps detoxify the body as you do them. Practice good form of course, and build up slowly. Start with 20, take a day off, but get up to 100 a day.

Imagine that. 100 squats, a big huge salad, and a gallon (or so) of cranberry lemonade every day. If you can do it, you will reverse and set back disease for many years and feel amazing. When you are detoxifying, stick with the salads, squats, and lemonade. When you're not, just fill in the rest of your diet with unprocessed, whole foods (organic whenever possible) and you'll be healthier than anyone you know. If you suffer from any autoimmune disease, a more advanced protocol may be in order.
