DIET
SOMETIMES OUR DIGESTIVE ORGANS NEED A BREAK FROM THE ONSLAUGHT OF
AGGRAVATING FOODS AND JUNK WE PUT INTO THEM. "CLEANING" THESE ORGANS
ALLOWS THEM TO FUNCTION BETTER AND TO ABSORB NUTRIENTS MORE EFFICIENTLY,
THUS MAKING OUR BODIES STRONGER AND HEALTHIER . DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS DIET
WITHOUT THE SUPERVISION OF YOUR HOMEOPATHIC DOCTOR.

a boil, turn down to low for 45-60 minutes. Keep pot covered and do not stir while cooking.
Onions, herbs or spices can be added if desired during the last 15-20 minutes of cooking time.

wash them very well. They can be eaten raw, steamed or baked. Combine them with rice if you
wish. No frozen, canned or jarred vegetables should be eaten.
