Guest guest Posted September 29, 2010 Report Share Posted September 29, 2010 Opinions please? Apple Cleanse Posted By Dr. Ben Kim on Sep 28, 2010 Healthy Eating Resources Now that autumn has arrived for those of us living above the equator, I thought I'd share a simple detoxification routine involving apples that you can follow without making any major changes to your daily routine. Here's what you do: Eat nothing but apples - any variety you like - whenever you are hungry, from the time that you wake up to the time that you usually have dinner. For dinner, you can have what you usually have. But it would be best if you could have your dinner meal consist of at least 50% green vegetables. Here are a few examples of optimal dinner meals: Example A Steamed broccoliBrown riceAvocadoHealthy dressing from our recipe archives Example B Steamed kaleQuinoa2 organic eggs, scrambledHealthy dressing from our recipe archives Example C Steamed asparagus, spinach, and green peasThree ounces of wild salmonHealthy dressing from our recipe archives If you find yourself looking for a snack later on at night, go back to munching on apples. If you're using a green food powder and/or any other whole food supplements, take one or both with your dinner meal. That's it. Many people who have followed this detox routine have reported losing unwanted weight, feeling more energetic, having clearer skin, and just plain feeling better than they have in a long time. And because this routine will supply your body with healthy calories whenever you are hungry, the detoxification effects will not be so abrasive that you will have to take time off of work or from your daily routine to get extra rest. Another nice feature to this routine is that you can benefit from following it for one day, several days, or even a few weeks. Just one note of caution: if you have high blood sugar or any problems related to your blood sugar regulating mechanisms, you may want to substitute apples with non-sweet vegetables like lettuce, celery, tomatoes, and cucumber. And of course, before following this or any other detoxification routine for more than a few days, it's prudent for you to consult with a health care provider who can provide you with personalized guidance as you seek to get healthier. Speaking of lettuce and celery, it's fine to eat them raw along with apples throughout the day - they'll provide plenty of minerals, and won't take anything away from the cleansing process. Hope this apple cleansing routine proves to be beneficial to your health.    ~Katy Sheep to the right; His Lamb “In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength" Isa 30:15 http://www.orchardhouseheirlooms.net/ survival seeds Christian-homesteaders/ biblical survival Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
