Nature's flu shot

Yes, yes, this ACTUALLY WORKS. I have done it. I have not had insurance since I was 19. I'm 35 now, you can do the math. How have I taken care of myself all this time with no doctor? Well the first half , 19-29 was a disaster. I was pretty sick. Depressed, weight all over the place, always phleghmy, covered in hives, digestive issues, dry flaky skin. Yeah, sounds hot right? Well, it's not obviously. I tried to eliminate dairy and became vegan. That didn't work at all because all I was eating was wheat. Fake chicken patties, bread, fries, etc. hives got way worse and I weighed around 100 lbs and I looked disgusting. I looked very ill. That's when I decided to try the doctors. Well let me tell you, they have no idea ever on what was wrong. Truth is they barely cover nutrition in the medical field. I decided with no insurance I was going to have to do this on my own. It took ten years to really figure it out but, without a doubt, nature works, period. This isn't an all over fix all but I was sick (cold, flu) slightly once in the last two years. Immediately upon waking up not so well, I made this and slammed it throughout the day. I was 90% fine the next day, and 100% the next. In the past I would have bargained with a nurse friend for antibiotic samples, or paid to go and get seen to get some. Never again. Antibiotics wipe out ALL your bacteria, good and bad and you can't get better without the beneficial flora in your gut.  It sounds like its not good but actually, it's quite palatable! I didn't mind it at all. A regular blender will work just fine for this, you don't need a fancy juicer either. Good luck and take your whole food vitamins as well!! I take vitamin D, vitamin b-12, and mega foods mega flora probiotics everyday. I haven't been sick in A LONG time and I work in a heavily trafficked restaurant. ❤
