Liver Spring Cleaning
These past 2 weeks, Jim, Hannah, and I have been doing a liver cleanse. We decided we wanted to improve how our immune systems were functioning. After researching it, this diet seemed to be the best way for us to do it. We are very limited to what we can eat (only lean meat, certain veggies and fruit, and supplements). We can't have any starch, sugar, dairy, salt, sweeteners, etc (junk), or carbs while on the diet. We also have to drink 640z. of cranberry water a day along with hot lemon water and ground flax seeds. The first week went fine, but it was hard to cook for just us three and then something "good" for the rest of the family. I am going on my second week, but have cheated some. Jim and Hannah decided they have had enough cleansing, but are careful what they are adding back to their diets. I would say it has been successful and feel more energetic. I am finding I have a food sensitivity to dairy and will be careful how much I eat from now on.

Hmmmm......I'd be curious what the recipe is (how much of each item)? And do you feel like it helped your allergies?
