The Suero Cleanse

When it comes to cleanses, I have done them all! Herbal, juice, wheatgrass, lemon juice, colonic, emotional, technological... So when Jordan Rubin, author of Living Beyond Organic and founder of Beyond Organic (a new food company) suggested a Suero Fast, I said Game On.

The fast consists of drinking 8oz of Suero Viv (cultured whey/essential oil beverage) every hour for 12 hours. We tried it yesterday as a family- me, my dog, and husband. I could only get down 32oz and had to stop because I was worried if I drank anymore I wouldn't be able to sleep. My husband Bill was able to drink 80 oz- the goal was 96oz. My dog drank 4oz and then demanded dinner.

So, even from our partial fast (we ended up eating a couple of sardines and an sprouted grain english muffin w/raw cheddar) we felt great. Cultured whey (different from isolated whey found in protein drinks) has been used for centuries as an all over curative. It was made popular by spas and healing resorts in Switzerland.

Cultured whey is a great source of potassium, flushes excess sodium (ie, ladies- helps with swelling) and is great for the lymphatic system (cellulite is the first thing that comes to mind here.) Clearing the lymphatic system can be beneficial for things like allergies, breast swelling, menstrual disorders, prostate issues, swollen hands, feet and legs. To learn more about the benefits of cultured whey check out the writings of Christopher Vasey.

So, after my personal experience I decided to create a modified version of the fast and incorporate it into a whole body cleanse. You can do this cleanse with any of your favorite seasonal herbal cleanses or by itself. And remember, while you don't necessarily need to fast from all foods, making better food choices will only enhance the effects. So, watch the sugar, wheat, and alcohol.

Suero Cleanse
Start with 4oz of Suero Viv on Day One. Increase to 16 oz (one bottle) on Day Two and add one additional bottle per day until you reach 4 bottles per day for women/6 bottles for men. Stay on that amount for 2-3 days and then back down by one bottle per day. After that 1/2-2 bottles per day maintenance as needed.

A few things to expect might be increased bowel activity and urination. This has been the most common comment so far. Overall feeling of not being puffy, stagnant with increased energy, stamina and overall sense of well-being. Diminished food cravings, feeling of satiety. Looking forward to hearing about your experiences.

Keep in mind the standard disclaimer, check with your doctor first, info provided only for educational and entertainment purposes. We do not prescribe, diagnose or make any claims.

You can pick up Suero Viv at many Herb Shoppes, Chiropractic Offices, Natural Health Practitioner offices and other specialty groups. Order online at The Health Chic Market or find someone near you.

JennScents Graduates with Diploma in Spiritual PhytoEssencing!

Holistic Aromatherapist, Herbalist, Author and International Educator Jennifer Hochell Pressimone graduates with her diploma in Spiritual PhytoEssencing (Di.SPE). Jennifer has studied deep emotional and soul level healing with aromatherapy under the mentorship of Dr. Bruce Berkowsky, a nationally renowned homeopath and educator. He developed the Natural Health Science System, Vital Chi Skin Brushing System, Spiritual PhytoEssecing as well as publishing many books, journals, formulating herbal remedies and aromatherapy blends.

Spiritual PhytoEssencing (SPE) is a system intended to encourage deep, soul-level healing using essential oils. It is based upon a synthesis of certain aspects of aromatherapy, physiology, classical homeopathy, anthroposophical medicine, traditional Chinese medicine, herbal medicine and folklore, depth psychology, color therapy, gemstone healing, numerology and other modalities.

The goal in Spiritual PhytoEssencing is to identify the pattern of deep psycho-spiritual themes which have a disharmonizing impact on the soul level. Subsequently, a combination of essential oils which correlates with these themes is formulated to act as a mirror-image of this "central disturbance," and so, serves as a customized response to the bioenergetic fingerprint of a deeply-ingrained pattern of imbalance. Harmonizing the bioenergy currents of the psycho-spiritual plane facilitates an altered state characterized by heightened awareness, receptivity, flexibility, objectivity and the illumination of life-choices, where true healing can proceed.

To read more about this, visit http://www.essentialoilsandsoul.com/. Jennifer will be offering classes in 2012 that implement SPE ino the art and science of aromatherapy. Watch the jennscents.com website for more information and class dates.

Elderberry Defense Time

It's that time of year - back to school, gearing up for the holidays and a change in seasons. Beat the cold and flu season by starting to support and build your immune system now. Order your Elderberry D3fense (with added D3)today!

More and more research shows that in addition to supporting bone health, vitamin D is critical to the immune system. It’s one of the reasons why the cloudy winter months —when people receive little sun exposure — are the hardest on the immune system. Elderberry D3fense combines the benefits of elderberry fruit and vitamin D3 with other
herbs that help the immune system to provide you year-round immune system support.

One of my favorite blends! Elderberry D3fense is a unique blend specifically formulated to support the immune system. It contains a healthy dose of vitamin D3, which mounting research indicates strengthens the immune system, along with key ingredients elderberry fruit extract and Echinacea purpurea. Elderberry D3fense also contains willow bark extract, which contains salicin; olive leaf extract, which features oleuropein, the substance in olive wood that helps protect the tree; and royal jelly, a nutrient-dense substance secreted by the honey bee and containing fats, carbohydrates,amino acids and vitamins.
