“What You Didn’t Know About Cucumber And Celery!”

Cucumber contains a hormone needed by the beta cells of the pancreas to produce insulin. The enzyme erepsin in cucumbers is targeted toward breaking down excessive protein in the kidneys. In our program, we use a lot of cucumber juice, for drinking as well as in salads.

Celery also has some general antidiabetogenic effects,, as well as being helpful for people with high blood pressure such as we see with Syndrome X. Celery juice has a calming effect on the nervous system, due to its high concentration of organic alkaline minerals, especially sodium. The minerals contained in celery juice make the body’s use of calcium more effective, balancing the blood’s pH. Celery should be the center of your green vegetable juices and can be included in green soups and smoothies to alkalinize a system taxed by acidifying Culture of Death foods and lifestyle choices……

COOK TO BEAT CANCER💥💥

CHICKPEA Scramble with Swiss Chard💥💥💥💥

This recipe takes about 15 minutes, and it’s absolutely unbeatable!

Why chickpeas instead of tofu💥
Soy in America is overly processed, and contains the most phytoestrogens of any plant in the western diet. Phytoestrogens are a plant based estrogen that the body cannot detox easily. An overabundance of it can lead to PCOS, infertility, and hormonal cancers.

If you’ve never had a chickpea scramble you are in for a treat! It’s just as savory as tofu and so flavorful. Chickpeas are a great source of plant based protein. They’re also wonderful at helping you feel satisfied for longer, which helps to prevent over-eating.

CHICKPEAS SCRAMBLE With CHARD

2 Cups of chickpeas, drained and rinsed

1/2 lemon juiced

1 teaspoon turmeric powder

1/2 teaspoon sea salt Or Herbamar

1 tablespoon coconut oil

1/4 yellow onion, sliced thinly

3 cloves of garlic, minced

3 large leaves of Swiss Chard

black pepper to taste

Start with the chickpeas. Make sure they’ve been drained and rinsed. Add chickpeas, lemon juice, turmeric, and salt to blender. Pulse briefly a few times until all are blended. Chickpeas should be partially mashed, with still plenty left whole. Set aside. (If you don’t own a blender, you can probably achieve this with a fork and a bowl, it will just take a bit longer) Or a food processor.
Separate the leaves of the chard from the stems. Keep the stems, and cut them into 1” long pieces. Tear the leaves into bite sized pieces. Place the leaves to the side.
Add coconut oil, onions, garlic, and Swiss chard stems to a large skillet, and heat over medium heat for about 3-5 minutes.
Once onions are translucent and fragrant, add in your chickpea mixture. Stir and cook for another 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the Swiss chard leaves, and continue to cook until the leaves have slightly wilted
Serve immediately.

Healthy Sweetness for Breakfast 🥕🥕
I create recipes differently 🥕

🥕🥕🥕🥕COOK VS RAW 🥕🥕

✔️When you cook vegetables the heat tends to destroy some nutrients
✔️This may not be true for all vegetables
✔️Cooked carrots tend to be healthier and more nutritious than raw ones

🥕This dish balances your craving for sweet at Breakfast🥕

It is a common belief that when you cook vegetables the heat tends to destroy the nutrients but this principle may not be true for all vegetables. Yes, there are some veggies such as beetroot, broccoli and bell peppers which are healthier when eaten raw. One reason is that these vegetables contain Vitamin C which is a heat-sensitive nutrient that gets destroyed during cooking. But, in case of carrots, this may not be true. In fact, it is believed that cooked carrots tend to be healthier and more nutritious.

A study published in the Journal of Agriculture and Food Chemistry shows that and steaming tends to preserve the antioxidant carotenoid found in carrots and zucchini. Simply put, the carotenoids found in carrots such as the beta carotene are more readily available to be absorbed by the body when they are cooked…. It’s essentially trapped in plant tissues and requires some chopping and cooking to maximize the amount . Just lightly steam...they don’t have to be broken down all the way. Even grating helps break cell walls releasing the nutrient.

Beta-carotene is an important carotenoid which gives fruits and vegetables their red, yellow, and orange colour. The body converts this beta-carotene into vitamin A, an essential nutrient that plays an important role in maintaining healthy vision, bone growth and boosting the immune system. It is a fat-soluble vitamin which is not lost when the foods containing them are cooked. The body tends to store it in the liver and adipose tissue when not used and therefore, you don't need this vitamin in large quantities or on a daily basis. Pumpkins which are also rich in beta-carotene follow the same principle and may be more nutritious when cooked than eating them raw as per various scientific studies.
I learned this from Dr. Bernard Jensen ....years ago...
Now juicing is another subject....you are after other vitamins and minerals and instant assimilation without the fiber...extraction does provide some release. Prepare your foods with purpose .....raw or cooked depending on Your Purpose & needs.

Carrot Nested Poached Eggs
Yield 2 servings
🥕1 large carrot, spiralized or grate…lightly steamed
🥕4 pasture-raised eggs, room temperature poached
🥕splash apple c***r vinegar (optional) in water for eggs
🥕sea salt, to season (I like Fleur de sel) or Himalayan
🥕sprinkling of fresh herbs, like thyme
🥕Drizzle 1 Teaspoon Walnut Oil (on top of dish)

🌶CHILI 🥕CARROTS 🥗CABBAGE

The 3 Cancer Fighting “C”s 🥕🌶🥗

🌶🌶The pepper's natural ingredient capsaicin induces autophagy blockage in prostate cancer cells
Ágata Ramos-Torres, Alicia Bort, [...], and Inés Díaz-Laviada
Abstract
CAPSICUM the pungent ingredient of red hot chili peepers, has been shown to have anti-cancer activities in several cancer cells, including prostate cancer. Several molecular mechanisms have been proposed on its chemopreventive action, including ceramide accumulation.Herein, we have tested the involvement of autophagy on the capsaicin mechanism of action on prostate cancer LNCaP and PC-3 cells.
The results showed that capsaicin induced prostate cancer cell death in a time- and concentration-dependent manner.

🥗🥗CABBAGE has been shown to inhibit urinary bladder and liver carcinogenesis, and reduce the risk of occurrence of prostate, lung, gallbladder, stomach, cervical, kidney and colorectal cancer. This anticarcinogenic activity has been found in green cabbage, red cabbage, bok choy, and to some extent, in sauerkraut. As a result of its pigmentation, red cabbage contains anthocyanins such as delphinidin, which has anticarcinogenic activity.
Cabbage has been found to be promote apoptosis, suppress cell cycle progression and inhibit angiogenesis of human breast cancer cells.

🥕🥕CARROTS & CARROT JUICE have powerful chemicals falcarinol and luteolin that reawakens silenced cancer suppressor genes and restores our body's capacity to regulate cell division and destroy abnormal cells. Carrot juice treatment can help people with cancer on its own, or combined with chemotherapy and radiation. Studies have shown carrots reduce the risk of lung cancer, breast cancer and colon cancer.

This is a very simple and easy recipe 🌶🥕🥗

Nicely roasted cabbage turns sweet and earthy, with a deliciously silky texture. There's a beautiful balance of flavors here--sweetness from cabbage and carrots, fire from hot sauce and brightness from vinegar.
Ingredients
* 2 1/4 pounds green cabbage, core removed and cut into 1-inch cubes
* 1 cup vertically sliced yellow onion
* 1 tablespoon coconut oil
* 1 Monk Fruit to taste optional
* 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
* 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
* 3 cups carrots, cut into ribbons
* 3 tablespoons c***r vinegar
* 2 teaspoons hot sauce or to taste
* Another tablespoon Coconut oil for carrots

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 450°.
Combine cabbage, onion, oil, black pepper, and salt in a large bowl; toss to coat. (It's OK if the cubes start to separate.)
☀️
Divide cabbage mixture between 2 jelly-roll pans. Bake at 450° for 20 minutes, stirring and rotating pans after 10 minutes.
🔆
In the same bowl that you used for the cabbage, combine carrots, vinegar, and hot sauce; toss to coat.
🔆
Remove cabbage from oven, and carefully transfer the bowl with the carrots. Add the second tablespoon of coconut oil and toss gently to combine.
🔆
Return to the oven for 5 minutes just to wilt the carrots....
Serve:

💥A MUST READ..!!!
Now many of you know this...but we have members who are newbies....

💥WATER AND SOAP IN ARMPIT BEFORE BEDTIME
We spend the night with armpit deodorant in order for our armpit to smell good and fresh.
Some time ago, I went to a seminar on Breast Cancer, led by Terry Birk with support from Dan Sullivan.

One of the main causes of Breast Cancer is the use of antiperspirant.

Most products on the market are a combination of antiperspirant/deodorants.
Look at the labels!
Deodorant is fine, however ANTIPERSPIRANT can be very harmful because of the concentration of toxins that causes cell mutation: CANCER.

The human body has few areas where it can eliminate toxins: behind the knees, behind the ears, the English areas and armpits.
Toxins are eliminated through perspiration.
The antiperspirant, as the name says, prevents you from perspiring, thereby inhibiting the body to eliminate toxins through the armpits-these toxins do not magically disappear.

Most breast cancers occur in the upper outside quadrant of the breast area (see pic). More common in women however men are not free from this sickness too.
Breast Cancer can develop due to the use of antiperspirant instead of soap and water.
The difference lies in the fact that when men use antiperspirant, not applied directly to the skin, they do so in large part on the hair of the armpits.

Women who apply antiperspirant or aftershave- shaving the underarms, increase the risk due to tiny injuries and skin irritations which allows harmful chemical components to pe*****te more quickly into the body.

So be careful when removing underarm hair and choose your products carefully.....a clean diet will help...you smell sweet...and never wear any deodorant when detoxing.

HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED❓

Can too much sugar cause dehydration❓

Sugar, like salt, causes feelings of dehydration. Due to the excess sugar floating around in your bloodstream, your body needs more water to balance out. This causes fluid retention — the effect that’s part of the reason you feel so large and bloaty after dessert.
