Healthy Drink - Immune system booster (aka: “LOVE JUICE”)
Add the following ingredients to your blender or Vitamix:
2 inches of raw ginger root (peeled)
1/3 cup of organic lemon juice (I suggest buying "Santa Cruz" brand, organic lemon juice from any of your favorite grocery stores).
1/3 cup Apple Cider Vinegar (or more, if you can handle it!) and make sure you buy organic, with the mother, Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV). Remember, this must be the ACV "with the mother" on the label), non-organic ACV will NOT work. "Bragg" is a brand I often buy, however, other organic brands will do the same thing. If you buy it in a glass bottle, just make sure it's the one that looks cloudy with little floaty bits in it -- that's the live culture that our bodies LOVE.
Add 2 tablespoons unpasteurized honey, more or less if you like — if you think you might have H. pylori, use Manuka Honey. It is the only type of honey that will flush out the nasty H. pylori parasite.
a sprinkle of cayenne pepper - ~ 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon is lots. Again, you can use this based on your taste. Cayenne pepper is great for reducing blood pressure and getting rid of parasites. Cayenne is also good for men. Cayenne can help reduce an enlarged prostate.
Add water to fill your blender.
Blend until the ginger is completely broken down.
Put this in a pitcher and you can keep it in the fridge. It shouldn't last more than a few days since you'll drink it as your "go-to" drink. Mix 1/2 a glass of water and 1/2 a glass of this mixture as your drink, or drink it as it is. When your tolerance increases for ACV, go ahead and add more ACV. It sure won't hurt, and you'll be impressed with the results of overall health improvements. ACV is a terrific probiotic, and along with the organic lemon juice, it helps your gut to become more alkaline. Parasites and other unwanted microbes have difficulty surviving in a good, alkaline body. This means you have a better opportunity to stay healthy, happy and strong.
