I'd like to share this exceptional elixir with you. It is my mother's remedy for colds and flu. I have used it whenever necessary all my life. Slice up some citrus fruits (oranges, lemons, grapefruit etc) and put it all in a large jug together with all or any of the following: ginger root cut up garlic chopped up whiskey (or whatever your favourite tipple may be) a generous gob of honey You could if you wish add some spices and herbs to the mix. When you have finished adding ingredients, pour boiling water over it all and brew it like it was tea. Drink as much as you can comfortably manage of this hot brew until you start to feel better. You can add more boiling water and top up as necessary until it tastes too dilute to continue. You then need to chop up some more ingredients and start the whole process again! This cold and flu recipe acts like magic. I highly recommend it. The Magic of Garlic Garlic is the first item in my list of best foods for detox. Garlic cleanses and sterilises the gut from mouth to anus. It creates a harmonious environment therein. It is cooling and cleansing and soothing. It removes unpleasant fats and cholesterols and cleans the liver, encouraging the liver to health and settling all the other secondary organs of digestion. Garlic also cleans the arteries, thereby improving your skin, your overall health and the balance of your mind. It is recommended that you eat at least one whole clove a day! Do not cook the garlic as this destroys its benefits and never fry it with the onions. If you want to add garlic to cooked food, add the garlic at the end of the cooking time to get the full effect. Some of you may be concerned about the strong aroma of garlic coming off your body after you've eaten it. If this is what happens, then this just goes to show how much you needed to be detoxified! This is actually an indicator of how much you needed the garlic to help you detoxify. Just keep at it. Eat a clove each day and you will find that over time the smell goes away. This will prove to you how effective it is in ridding your body of toxins and dissolving all those nasty cholesterol and fatty deposits!
