Natural Health Tip - Toxins Sneak Up
By Gary Scott
Our bodies are bombarded daily with toxins that evolution
has not prepared us for. Electromagnetic pollution, pesticides, preservatives
and such are all brand new in evolutionary terms. When enough toxicity builds
up, the body protects itself by forming mucus to dampen the body’s energy
down. This buildup eventually hampers digestion. Bad digestion leads to all
types of stress and dis-ease.
One way to keep the digestive fires burning through the sludge
is with ginger and turmeric. Here is an enjoyable recipe that can help.
Ginger Healing Detox Tea with Turmeric. This recipe inspired
by “The Seasonal Detox Diet”, by Carrie L’Esperance (Inner
Traditions, 2001).
Here is a warming, detoxifying ginger-turmeric tea that is
delicious.
INGREDIENTS
2 cups water
1/2 teaspoon powdered ginger
1/2 teaspoon powdered turmeric
1 tablespoon panela, a natural sugar (buy in Latin section
of the super market)
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1. Bring water to a boil, then add powdered herbs. Simmer
for 10 minutes.
2. Strain tea into a mug, add sugar and lemon, stirring to
combine. Drink warm.
Turmeric, a free-radical-fighting antioxidant-rich
spice has many healing qualities. Some even say it is a defense against both
cancer and Alzheimer’s.

Turmeric and Ginger are two special ayurvedic foods. Merri
and I spent weeks at Ayurvedic Clinics and dramatically improved our health
using ancient, natural cleansing techniques. Not only did we gain better health,
we gained great friendships with many medical ayurvedic doctors and chiropractors.
During these times we met many special healers and a very special one is Vaidya
K.S. Mishra who is a master healer in the eight avenues of ayurvedic healing.
This is why we are excited about our June 16-17-18
course here at the farm with Vaidya Mishra. He is a healer with immense healing
knowledge to share. This course will be an experience that immerses you in
naturally healthy surroundings, such as the pure water, clean air, silence,
freedom from electromagnetic radiations, specially prepared food. Join us
at Merrily Farms June 16-17-18 2006. DETAILS
