 When to use it?

When sickness has developed – for all acute and chronic conditions.

• When overweight has become a problem.

• When better assimilation and building of body tissue is needed.

 And how often?

Follow the diet for a minimum of 10 days or more – up to 40 days may be safely followed for extremely serious cases. The diet has all the nutrition needed during this time. Three to four times a year will do wonders for keeping the body in a normal healthy conditions. The diet may be undertaken more frequently for serious conditions.

How to do it:

2 tablespoons of lemon or lime juice (approximately ½ lemon)

2 tablespoons genuine maple syrup Grade B/Nr 2 (Not maple sirup flavoured sugar syrup)

1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper (red pepper) or to taste.

Water, medium hot.

Grade B syrup is generally made towards the end of the season, as the weather warms towards spring and the trees end their winter dormancy. It is much darker and has stronger flavour that Grade A syrup, which makes it more suitable for flavouring and cooking purposes. It is though that this late season syrup contains more minerals.

 Combine the juice, maple syrup and cayenne pepper in a 10 oz glass and fill with medium hot water. (Cold water may be used if preferred)

 Use fresh (organic if possible) lemons or limes only, never canned lemon or lime juice nor frozen lemonade or frozen juice.
