The 14 Day Liver|Thyroid DETOX
Updated May 1, 2017 MEGA BOOT CAMP
Turmeric Detox TEA
for Liver Cleansing
You will notice different ingredients in this DETOX TEA, which makes it very pleasant but different from the other A.M./P.M. detox teas that we have used in the program. The reason: Turmeric is a superior herb for detoxifying the liver, however, it needs fat to ensure maximum absorption. Also, turmeric is very spicy, so in order to enable us to get an effective, therapeutic level in our system, we need to hook it up"a little more than we might some of the other herbs. For those of you who are already comfortable with spicy herbs, such as fresh ginger you will fine the taste especially pleasant.
Recipe #1 CORE RECIPE for this PROGRAM. This is the one of my favorite recipes for using Turmeric as a tea. Drink (1) 8 oz cup A.M. and P.M. as discussed in the class with your coach. You may also rotate to one of the other teas listed. All DETOX teas count towards your water intake
This is the most wonderful, refreshing, soothing glass of "milk" you will ever have. You will love it, but go very easy on the sweetener. We are bending the rules a little, because I want you to be able to enjoy this brew comfortably due to its many medicinal benefits. Because is so soothing, use first thing in the A.M. and as the very last beverage in the evening, always warm as a tea.
Ingredients
- 2 cups of almond milk

- 1 tsp NUTMEG
- 1" piece of fresh peeled and sliced ginger or ½ tsp GINGER POWDER

- Note: You can add filtered water to your liking and consistency.
Instructions

14 Day Liver |Thyroid Detox
Officially Starts 5/7/2017
•Newbie's or "No Fuss" Program: Use Parsley Tea Recipes
• Advanced: Use TUMERIC TEA Recipes , especially
Turmeric Milk
Turmeric Milk
Should find locally, at Whole Foods Markets or on line at Amazon.com with this link
however, this is not a hard to find item. Any brand of Stevie Vanilla sweetener will do.
Also, if you do not like Stevia , use plain vanilla extra instead. Just a drop or two.
Note: Please correct the error for me. Ginger is listed twice.
The 2nd time it should read TURMERIC
RECIPE #3
WITHOUT MILK
Use one of the "No Milk" Recipes if you simply
dislike the recipe
You’ll need:
- 2 inch knob of ginger
- 2-3 inch piece of turmeric root ~or ~ substitute 2 tsp turmeric powder
- 1-2 dashes of cayenne
- 4 lemons ( for juicing)
- 3 droppers vanilla stevia
- 2 quarts water
In a juicer, juice your ginger root, turmeric, and 3 lemons. I recommend using a real juicer, over a power blender such as NUTRA BULLET or NINJA. I happen to love Breville because they are easy to use, easy to clean, and great quality!
In a large pitcher add your juice to about 2 quarts of water, a couple droppers of Vanilla Stevia to taste, a couple dashes of cayenne and your thinly cut lemon slices. Mix well with a wooden spoon and adjust flavors to taste. Let sit for about 10 mins. before serving to let the flavors blend. Will last about 5 days in the fridge. Please use warm.
Basic Plan:
I like this choice for you which is especially good if you cannot be so bothered making the TURMERIC DETOX MILK or if you are a newbie in the program. Use this simple fresh PARSLY TEA as your A.M. and P.M. TEA
PROTECT THE KIDNEYS
The kidneys are a very delicate detox organ . We recommend that you do a kidney flush during this process, since much bile is released by the liver during the cleansing process
PARSLEY RECIPE ALTERNATE
Add Essential Fatty Acids
which are required for healthy membranes in every cell of the body and plentiful amounts are required for healthy liver function. This is why strict low-fat diets are not beneficial for general health, weight control or liver function
(1~2) TBS directly off the spoon,
over a salad, mixed in your meal replacement smoothie.
Experiment to see which way is most agreeable to you
REPAIR Liver DAMAGE by
Increasing ARGININE
Arginine – this helps the liver to detoxify ammonia, which is a toxic waste product of protein metabolism. Arginine is found in legumes (beans, peas, and lentils), carob, oats, walnuts, wheat germ and seeds. Notice that high arginine foods are NOT PALEO, so we like an arginine powdered supplement Link for this item on Amazon.com @
- Natural sources: Vitamin K – green leafy vegetables
and alfalfa sprouts.
This is the ordering link for Amazon.com
Why I like this product
ARGININE DOSE
in the Serenity Program
1 scoop per day, mixed with water, 20 minutes
before exercise or before lunch, with or without exercise
Nitric Oxide Support
What Is It? Nitric Oxide Support is an arginine-based formulation designed to support healthy nitric oxide production, facilitate ammonia and lactate removal to moderate fatigue, support immune health, maintain acid-base balance and provide antioxidant protection. It is available in a lemon-lime flavored powder for convenient dosing.*
Nitric Oxide contains l-Arginine, which is loved by bodybuilders as it stimulates the pituitary gland to produce human growth hormone in young males. Arginine has also been indicated to improve male impotence by helping to lower blood pressure, and relaxes the blood vessels. This specific formula also provides citrulline, another amino acid that helps in the gas conversion of nitric oxide.

It stimulates intestinal peristaltic motion, aiding in both assimilation and elimination.

Cayenne is also a great metabolic booster, aiding the body in burning excess amounts of fats.

THE THYROID DETOX
The THYROID GLAND (and Liver) are CATEGORY I stressors
The thyroid gland gets weaker every time one gains weight, then releases it, then regains it, only to release it once again. This cycle fries the thyroid gland, as you complain that the weight is "NOT coming off the way it used to". Because the cycles of gaining and releasing can be as harmful as not releasing the weight at all, you need to get a coach. The good news is that we have lot's of great products in our tool kit that we can give you . But first remember:
In all thy getting, Get Understanding ~Prov 4;7

I like Lugol's Iodine solution and FUCUS 200c, however if you are a long-time "dieter" meaning you have released and gained and released again over a span of 10-20 years, then use the LUGOLS. See this post to learn more here: http://alternativa-za-vas.com/en/index.php/clanak/article/lugols-solution
I like using Lugol's in the program because it is a multi-purpose iodine. It is also effective if you have been gaining and releasing weight for much of your adult life.
This is just one brand of Lugol's and it is available from Amazon.com @ this link
Read this related blogpost on Fucoidan here
For anyone a little uncomfortable using iodine or for anyone working on their thyroid gland HOLISTICALLY for the first time, you should start with FUCOIDAN . The other item that I like is FUCUS (homeopathic remedy, in 200C strength)
Please consult your "GM" (GodMother) for which product is best for you
