Low Cost Cleansing with Cleansing Foods

Posted by Botanica West

Many feel that natural therapies are costly. And if you really think about it we wouldn’t need expensive therapy’s if we only ate right and reduce stress in our life’s. The easiest way to get on track is to cleanse your system. Or in some cases let your system rest.

Fasting is a good way to start on track. Many times when we feel so overloaded our bodies will automatically say enough is enough. I make a large pot of potassium broth made with potato skins and juice organic apples and carrots for three days. This is a practice recommended by Dr. Christopher. The master cleanse is by far the cheapest but neither of these two cleanses clear out the lower bowel…

My favorite cleanse is the seven day cabbage cleanse. The goal is to eat one large head of cabbage in seven days. Half must be eaten raw the rest can be juiced or steamed or put in soup. Once the cabbage is sliced open the enzymes deteriorate in 48 hours so it must be eaten promptly.

I add to it a large bowl of blood building soup and a green drink per day.

My favorite green drink is what I call five “C’s:

2 carrots

1/4 cabbage

1/2 cucumber

2 celery stalks

1 cup cilantro

1 green apple

Juiced and water added to make a quart of juice drink.

I love this cleanse because it really cleanse out the intestines and regulates the bowel. The first three days there is a lot of flatulence and by the time your done you have little to no gas or bloating. Its great for hypoglycemics since fasting can be difficult on the blood sugar.

Sample menu

Morning  1 green drink

bowl of soup an hour later

lunch        a cabbage salad

Tea or ACV and honey in hot water

Dinner      Large bowl of soup and a wedge of cabbage

green drink an hour later

Drink plenty of water 1 once per day per pound of body weight.

This can be done at every season change for general health.

You can add a two ounce wheat grass shot to this as well and lemon and water. Even two tablespoons olive oil and lemon juice at bedtime as well to encourage the liver to flush. The seven day cabbage cleanse is an old standard cleanse found in the book herbally your by Penny C. Royal.

With this cleanse you can incorporate dry brush massage and hot baths since the skin is the largest cleansing organ of the body. A simple and low cost cleanse anyone can afford. So go to it! No excuses!
