PART 3

Boost your immune system with food and supplements. Think of food as your new prescription of medicine. It is that powerful and always safe for you. It’s not enough just to remove the bad food, you must replace it with healing foods everyday.  Eat as much fruits (yes fruits!) and vegetables as you want.  I never felt hungry, because I filled myself with lots of nutritional food.  I dedicate this whole page to Anthony Williams, aka Medical Medium, who is my go to guy for nutrition and the hidden secrets of food!

DRINK CELERY JUICE EVERY DAY!

Use a juicer (you can find the one I like on my resource page) or use a nutribullet if that is all you have to make your celery juice every morning.  You will need a full bunch of celery to make 16 ounces of juice.  Start with small amounts and build up to 16 oz over a 2-4 week period. Drink celery juice first thing every morning on an empty stomach.  Wait 20-30 minutes after you drink it to eat your breakfast.  Celery juice is the answer to your prayers!! It pulls toxins out of your liver, while killing off viruses in your body.  It raises your hydrochloric acid in your stomach so you can digest your food with ease. It cleanses and starves out bad bacteria. It is the absolute best thing you can do for Any autoimmune condition. 

 This is not something you do for just a few days or a month.  If you are dealing with an autoimmune disease, there is a lot of work to be done inside your body.  I personally have been drinking celery juice for a year and a half.  After a month or so, maybe sooner, you will feel a difference in your body.  Know healing is taking place. This will be the most important thing you do for yourself. 

ADD THESE FOODS TO YOUR DIET ON A REGULAR BASIS:

  • Wild Blueberries-you want to buy the small, wild berries in the freezer section (not the fresh ones in the boxes- they are good, but they don’t compare to the incredible nutrients in the small ones).  Use them in smoothies, add to recipes, eat plenty of them. They contain the highest antioxidants on the planet and are needed for detoxing your body of heavy metals. (most of us have heavy metals in our bodies contributing to our illness)
