I follow my grandfather's diet (he lived to be 96) that he got from his mom (who lived to 106)...he told me;
Eat everything in moderation, walk every day, and take 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar before lunch. Once you are over 60, take a short nap after lunch.
That was it...no special stuff. Over the years I have added Swedish Bitters for one week in the spring and fall.
Bitters will help your body flush out toxins...and then there are thing like pumpkin seeds to flush out parasites (we all get them, it is part of being human)...GetTheTea.com has an amazing detox tea too.
That's really cool that you had information like that passed down to you from your ancestry. Doesn't seem like my family had much interest in that kind of stuff. Thanks so much for the advice. I'm working on getting rid of an autoimmune disorder (hashimotos) so that I can get back to something simple again.
Never heard of that tea company. I'll have to check them out (:
They are awesome, and if you call them and tell them what you are trying to heal from, they will make suggestions. They are good people.
I used to spend summers with my grandparents, and my great-grandmother lived upstairs, so I was hanging out with them alot.
You're very lucky you got that time with them. I was lucky enough to know all my grandparents too. Visited them often ( :
