I wanted to share a message from my friend, Tally Hayden:

Food is medicine! And it could also be the key to longevity. Let's do some pre-spring cleaning of our liver, the most overworked organ in your body. We are so good about cleaning outside of us.

Liver Cleanse

1 Tbsp. fresh squeezed organic lemon juice

1 Tbsp. organic olive oil

1 Tbsp. (or to taste) of raw organic honey - (look for unfiltered and unprocessed). For diabetics use a few drops of liquid Stevia with no alcohol.

Dissolve all in 4 oz. of warm non-chlorinated water. Do not heat water in the microwave...heat on stove.

Do first thing in the morning before you eat or drink anything else. Please buy all organic ingredients as non organic fruit contains more than 20 pesticides.

Use filtered water and not tap. Tap water has fluoride and chlorine and our liver and body work better without chemicals.

Take this drink for 2 weeks to a month and then take a break for the same amount of time. You may do it again and again but always take a break. Note: If you do not have a gallbladder then this drink is important because your liver is working harder.

Your liver plays a major role in detoxifying the body. It is responsible for:

* Filtering and processing all food, nutrients, alcohol, drugs, and other materials that enter the bloodstream to let them pass, break them down or store them.
* Manufacturing bile to emulsify fats for digestion
* Making and breaking down many hormones, including cholesterol, testosterone and estrogen
* Regulating blood sugar levels

The quality of virtually every function your body performs depends on your liver. In addition, the liver is the anchor for all emotions, which means that the negative emotions we experience are stored there.

In today's world of poor diet, excess alcohol, and environmental toxins all around us an excess of toxins can build up in the blood and tissue. Doing this drink can be a first step to cleansing the liver.

Contact me if you want a more in-depth detox to fit your desire to honor the body.
