I bought my maple suyrp from Trader joes! They carry the organic and then their brand... its very reasonably priced....
My pepper... the grocery store, they had organic.... the lemons, you don't HAVE to go organic, cause your only using the inner part of the fruit, so you can go to your regular grocery store for those too... and you can also use limes just to mix it up and some times of the year limes are much easier to get, cheaper and hold much more juice then the lemons do... and they have the SAME cleansing benefits... I did 50-50 lemon and lime.... some days lemon some days lime... it helped me keep it fresh! I was not totally board...
Now for the salt.... I bought two different kinds... and yes it made a difference!!!! I first bought from the grocery store... sea salt, un iodized.... it tasted awful, but it got the job done! ugh! then i read about and ordered Celtic light grey sea salt... the brand was Celtic... it made life sooooo much better... my salt water flushes tasted more like warm cambles chicken noodle soup broth, just a tad saltier.... but it was smooth... and it was not as awful as the other... and now its all I use in my food prep... we don't keep any other king of salt in the house.. I had to buy a special ceramic grinder to put on the table so we could use the salt at meals... its that good....
You can find it on ebay.... Celtic light grey sea salt..... No substitutions... Its a little pricy, but it will last forever and its worth its weight in gold! its not crazy expensive or anything... its just not cheap... its hand harvested....
Oh and the best tea to drink every night... cause you need to do that too... is Smooth move... It will loosen everything for the salt water flush the next morning... and if you make it exactly like the package says, you won't have any cramping like with most of those teas! So don't over steep it!!!!
So.... did I leave anything out????
Its important for the best "cleansing" that you make each glass fresh... do not make king size batches (enough for a day or two) and expect any of those enzymes to stay alive for hours on end in your cold fridge or your jug waiting for you to drink it..... You need to make it fresh and drink it fresh so it can work in your body fresh.... The stuff that sits around is just not as hard working as the stuff you make fresh!
So I guess thats it..... Oh!!! And when it comes to breaking the fast!!! Don't have cambles chicken soup orange juice and a good humor chocolate dipped icecream cone! My sister called me up writhing in pain last night! Stupid idiot ate all of that on her fast breaking day.....
I told her she deserved the cramps.... she was a morom! She asked me the day before how to break it and I told her.... the first day.... Stay on the lemonade and add a glass of Orange juice for each meal.... next day, while still drinking lemonade, oj for breakfast and Strained veggie broth for lunch... veggie broth for dinner.... day three.... Some water melon for breakfast! Still drinking lemonade... Veggie soup with some veggies, don't over do it... and for dinner depending on how you did at lunch have the veggies for dinner from the soup... day four... use your best judgment... you should be back on a veggie diet... no whoppers with cheese please!
