Spinach and Lime, Crazy Good!

Two of my favorite books are "The Enzyme Factor" and "The Microbe Factor" both written by Hiromi Shinya, MD . These books are very informative in an understandable way. In "The Microbe Factor", chapter 6, Dr. Shinya teaches us how to do the "Shinya Little Fast", a correct and easy way to fast and assist our bodies with a simple intracellular detoxification.

First you start your fast the night before by refraining from eating after 6 or 7 in the evening. After dinner and prior to going to bed all food should be omitted. Make sure you drink only good clean water. Dr. Shinya, and myself, only drink the Kangen water. He tells us in his book that drinking water at room temperature is best because too cold of water weakens the immune system. 

Next thing to do is instead of eating breakfast in the morning, drink the "fresh enzyme juice". This is my new favorite drink! In this green drink you will find one apple, a hand full of fresh spinach, the juice of one lime, to which I have added 3 drops of the Young Living lime essential oil. It is a great enzyme and detox stimulant. Today I am detoxing since I have a cold, and this tastes yummy while very nourishing as well!

According to the Berg list of alkaline foods, raw spinach is extremely alkalizing. By adding this to an apple, and lime, with some good 8.5 ph balanced water, you have a winner of an alkalizing drink! It doesn't get much better than this.

To your health,

In the Beginning.....

When I was fourteen my mother made a drastic life style change towing me along side her as she went. She decided that we needed to improve our health and eat differently. Out came the books and off we went to the lectures on health and wellness.

I vividly remember the day I first met Dr. John Christopher, Master Herbalist. He was a unique man with his thick white hair and mustache! He surprised me at one lecture when he eagerly ate a heaping teaspoon full of very hot cayenne pepper without so much as batting an eye! What? No way could I do that, and no way did I want to do that!

Then there were the lectures by Dr. West, Bernard Jensen, and many other great and knowledgeable healers. Today I often find myself reading their books as well as books of Gary Young, David Stewart, Sang Whang, Deepak Chopra, and Hiromi Shinya. I guess you could say I am continuing on the wellness path my mother began years ago, and I am grateful.

I invite you to join me as we journey on this path together. It is my intention to lead, guide and direct as we all experience our journey of wellness. Thank you for joining me, now let us begin!
