I recently rediscovered the value of oatmeal in the morning. I grew up with Quaker Instant Classic Oatmeal so my taste for the oats were a bit saggy. Recently, a friend made me some for breakfast so this recipe is based on her ideas.

1/2 cup oatmeal
1 tblsp sugar [if desired]
1 tblsp Nut* butter
a handful of dried fruit**
1 cup boiling water

* Nut: your desired choice of Peanut, Almond, Cashew, etc.
** Dried Fruit: I prefer Cranberries because it has higher Vitamin C content which helps in the absorption of Iron (from the oatmeal). I have also used blueberries and cherries with great success.

One of many cleanses “out there”.

What?
2 TBsp Fresh Lemon Juice [preferably Organic]
2 TBsp Grade B or C Maple Syrup
1/10 Tsp Cayanne Pepper
10 oz Water

Drink as many as you need for at least 10 days.

In the evening you should have an Herbal Laxative Tea such as “Smooth Move“.
In the mornings perform a salt water flush. Drink about 1 qt of water with 1 TBsp of salt. Wait 5 min and see what happens.

This is the 3rd time I have performed the Master Cleanse. My primary goal is weight loss. And to learn I don’t need to eat as much food as I consume. A fist size amount of food per sitting is all that’s really needed.

In addition, during the first 2 cleanses, I noticed my overly dry feet and dandruff were nearly diminished. I would like to confirm this finding once more.
