Detoxifying doesn't have to be complicated, and if done correctly it can be easy and effective. @BitzofCoins is dedicated to helping the #Steemit community find practical open-source solutions; not only for financial health, but for our physical health as well!
One organ that people fail to focus on during a cleanse or detox is the #Liver. We know that it is already our built-in blood cleaning factory, but many do not know how maintaining a healthy liver boosts the metabolism as well as aides in digestion.
If you Google “What Organ cleans the blood” you may find this snippet:
So how do we clean out our built in cleaning factory?
This simple tip has been used for ages, and dates back to ancient Egyptian customs, with only two ingredients! Simply mix equal parts of organic lemon juice and 100% olive oil. Equal parts of a tablespoon of each. Take the shot before you eat anything in the morning for the most effective result.
Clear Disclaimer: I am not a doctor and this is not medical advice, but just something that has been known to work for most people. Ofcourse, DO NOT use if you are allergic to any of the organic plants or oils.
Here’s the simple 2 ingredient recipe:
1 tablespoon of freshly squeezed #Organic #Lemons (like the ancients, no cheating – has to be organic). This is usually equal a half cut lemon - squeezing the cut half. Try to get the seeds with the juice – very important. Seeds have more nutrients than the juice!
1 tablespoon of Pure (non-imported) Extra virgin Olive Oil.
I highly recommend California’s Olive Ranch brand because they have been tested to be certified real olive oil produced from real olives. They also are grown and bottled in California so its not rancid from importation
Reasonably Priced too, this is what it looks like:
Directions:
Squeeze the half of lemon (or 1 tablespoon) of juice into a small cup. Try your best to get all the seeds in the cup. The nutrients that the seeds provide is quadruple the amount found in the juice. Then pour the 1 tablespoon of olive oil into the lemon juice. Mix them up and slam it like a shot! I actually use a shot glass because it makes it easier to get the seeds and contents down in one gulp.This small but powerful addition to your diet and is usually done first thing in the morning or before you eat.
I personally tend to notice a sense of energy that is unlike coffee (not downing coffee) but this is more of a long lasting energy because the lemons “alkalinize” the PH in your blood. I am not recommending as this as an energy drink, but it naturally causes energy and some say it helped them kick their #caffeine #addiction, if that’s something you are trying to do – I know #Coffee lovers are saying that's crazy talk 😛
The number of health benefits is so far-reaching that it’s hard to list them all in one post, but here are a few commonly known benefits:
- #Skin, Hair, and Nail health
- #Digestion – lemons naturally have antibacterial and antimicrobial qualities
- #Indigestion and #Heartburn
- Helps to prevent Heart Disease – oxygenates blood reducing the chance of blood clots.
- Cleanses the #Liver, #Gallbladder and #Kidneys! It has helped some with Kidney Stones. Yes #Kidneystones
The Lemon-Detox Shot is for Adults. I have yet to see research done for children.
