Liver Flush Smoothie

The Liver Flush Smoothie should be prepared fresh every morning during week 4.  This Liver Flush Smoothie, should be taken on an empty stomach. The quantity for one person is:

• 200ml organic bottled apple juice with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice
• 200ml spring or purified water (optional)
• 1 clove of fresh garlic (crush/chop before blending) – this is optional!
• 1 tablespoon of organic extra virgin olive oil
• 1 piece of fresh ginger to match the garlic
• Cayenne as desired (from one pinch to a teaspoon and there are no medals for being a hero!)

Liquidise (blender works well) all the ingredients, until they form a well-blended, smooth liquid.

Transfer this to a glass and drink it slowly.  You may well find that there is a reaction in the liver and you may start to feel a little nauseous-this means the Liver Flush Smoothie is already working!

You should wait one hour before having any breakfast (or at least half an hour). It’s possible to feel not only nauseous, but headachy, tired and/or irritable as well, this is because you are already detoxifying.

Many people however, experience none of these reactions.  It is important to drink plenty of pure water and rest.

What diet do you recommend whilst I am on this Program?

What Can I Expect During The Liver Cleanse Program?

This may last for a couple of hours or a couple of days, sometimes it may last a week or longer.  The Healing Crisis may be emotional and/or physical.  The sign your body is healing may include:
