Avoid antacids,
especially if you have acid reflux. Acid reflux is often a sign of low hydrochloric acid in the stomach.
Add more fermented foods
to your diet, such as apple cider vinegar, organic red wine and brown rice
vinegar.
Increase your citrus
intake, with lemons and limes in water, tea and in freshly made lemonade,
sweetened with grade B maple syrup or coconut crystals.
Juice and eat raw,
organic fresh fruits and vegetables daily. The live enzymes help to break down
foods and increase nutrient absorption.

Add bacteria and parasite
zapping foods and herbs to your diet, such as walnuts and herbs such as oregano

Drink pure water between
meals, to flush out impurities and increase your metabolism.
Eat fresh salads daily,
with dressing made with olive oil, lemon, garlic, cayenne and herbs.
Supplement with holy basil and picrorrhiza daily, Omega 3s while detoxifying the liver at
least twice a year. I detox every season.
