Re: Tips for the Newbies...

I am a devout traditionalist also...

I don't deviate at all other than that preached in the book...ah,the book!

I drink the whole thing. If I can't get good salt(some say celtic grey, I found that 'redmond' from Utah is best for me) or the SWF (Salt-Water-Flush) isn't working, i do the Lax tea sunrise instead.

I never eat maple syrup by itself either ...If hungry to that point I just have another lemonade. I don't even chew toothpicks...nothing to get digestive juices flowing other than staring at a picture of an Avo salad with croutons, papaya seed dressing, mushrooms, tomatoes, celery, carrots, beets, cucumber, sprouts(alfalfa, radish ,etc,) radish, did I say croutons?, sunflower seeds.....ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

If it ain't in the book I don't do it...recipe and ingestion wise...
