Detox Lemonade

OK, so if you EVER have a food hangover, are feeling sick in any way, have DETOX symptoms from doing a Candida Detox or otherwise, can't poop, feel swollen, have allergies, have a headache, are bloated, or just plain low on energy....this is something to sip on daily...1-3x/day. Drink it room temp or over ice but don't heat it up because you don't want to kill all the living enzymes and nutrients in it! 

INGREDIENTS: 
2 cups RO/distilled/purified water
1-3 Tbsp RAW apple cider vinegar (to taste; more diluted for kids)
1-3 Tbsp fresh squeezed lemon juice or 1-3 drops of (ingestible) lemon essential oil (to taste; more diluted for kids)
Stevia/xylitol/Swerve or monkfruit to taste ( or Raw honey if you're not on a Candida Detox)

Optional: Replace water with 2 cups pau d' arco tea or use 1/2 tsp pau d' arco extract (+ 2 cups water) as your base for more anti-fungal/anti-viral potency/liver & blood cleansing power :) 

*Size this recipe up (increase ingredients, to taste) to make a whole pitcher. 

NOTE: DO NOT use essential oils orally that you purchase from a health food store. MOST oils/brands are NOT ingestible. YOU MUST know the manufacturer to know if your product is the purest quality & ingestible if you are going to add it to food/drinks. All of my essential oils meet this standard & can be purchased at wholesale cost through my ONLINE STORE. If you do add essential oils to your lemonade, be sure to use a glass pitcher/cup for storing/drinking ;)

Mix all ingredients together in a glass, a jar with lid or a glass pitcher and drink daily, anytime you are sick, if you find you've eaten more carbs/sugar and Candida overgrowth symptoms are returning, or to help with bowel movements, skin, digestion, energy, etc.

Use more sweetener or less lemon/vinegar if it's too tart. Use more water if it's too strong. If you ever get heartburn from it, use less vinegar. Don't be scared to experiment with the right blend of ingredients for YOU and YOUR family. Keep it simple. Make a pitcher for your whole family to enjoy!! 

NOTE: If you are brand new to reducing sugars in your diet or doing a Candida Detox for the 1st time or don't even know what Candida die -off is, know that if you feel sick (not heartburn, but flu-like or achy or itchy after drinking this) it could be a yeast die-off reaction. That means it's working! If it's too much for you to handle, then slow down by diluting your mixture, drinking less of it, or skipping the pau d' arco until you feel a bit better.
