Guest guest Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Just ran across this last night.. How to Make an Alkaline Broth Many people believe that foods rich in the alkaline minerals sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium help to neutralize toxic acids that can harm the body. These acids come from a high protein diet, excess exercise, and other diet and lifestyle factors and cause joint stiffness, low energy, flu-like symptoms, pain and cysts.As a cleansing or general health measure, some people drink an alkaline broth. The broth is rich in minerals and helps balance the pH of the body, promoting cleansing of all the tissues in the body.Here is the recipe:Ingredients: 2 cup carrot tops 2 cups celery tops 2 cups beet tops 2 quarts distilled water 3 cups celery stalk 2 cups red skinned potato peeling 1/2 inch thick 1 small zucchini Chop all vegetables into very fine pieces. Place them in the water and bring to a boil with the lid on. Lower heat and simmer for 20-30 minutes. Strain and drink the broth. This broth will keep for 3 days in the refrigerator. It may also be made in larger quantities and frozen. Suzi What is a weed?

At least that way the potassium will stay organic and the body will be better able to utilize it. -- Peace be with you, Don " Quai " Eitner " Spirit sleeps in the mineral, breathes in the vegetable, dreams in the animal and wakes in man.

If they are clean there should be no problem. -- Peace be with you, Don " Quai " Eitner " Spirit sleeps in the mineral, breathes in the vegetable, dreams in the animal and wakes in man.
