Live Long Naturally

Preparation is key for success in most endeavors, so are deadlines. Today is the day before week 3 of my 52 week resolution. Rainy weather here in Southern California already has me craving some hot comfort food. However, there’s an easy solution – broth!

Simply get water boiling (or a healthy broth) and add whatever vegetables you have handy. Once all is tender, blend and drink. I call this liquid vitamins. And… because I drink it while fasting my body happily soaks it up like a sponge. I’ve given it to non-fasters, they not only love it, they feel great after drinking it!

Vegetable ideas to put in “soup.” Broccoli, onion, garlic, cabbage, potatoes (or quinoa), beets, carrots, etc. Anything goes really! I flavor mine with liquid aminos, or kosher salt or himalayan salt, then spice it up with a dash of cayenne, which by the way… is great for circulation and ridding the body of mucus.

A few other cold weather ideas to prepare for a fast… herbal teas, hot water with lemon, room temperature water, master cleanse drink, and/or blended miso soup. These liquid elixirs can be consumed anytime – cold weather, colds or flu are especially good times.
