Cold Prevention Smoothie

It is that time of year and everyone I know is getting sick. I know so many parents right now that are getting sick because the babies are bringing home a cold from school and this time of year brings a lot of colds. WHY?

The reason we detox in the Fall is to support the lungs and the large intestine and prevent colds. If the lungs are weak, then no matter how much vitamin C or probiotics you take, you will get sick. I have found over the years, my lungs are a weak organ for me. When you detox each season, you focus on a specific organ. This season we focus on the lungs and the large intestine. By eating foods that are in season and removing toxic waste and mucous from the body, you will improve your immune system. The amazing part of what I am sharing with you is this – you can naturally prevent sickness that leads to congestion, colds, weight gain and digestion issues.

If you are getting sick or you just cannot beat that lingering cough or feel stuffy all of the time, then it is time to clean out the pipes. You can clean up and de-sludge here.

This is my go to when I am feeling blah (meaning got to get to the sickness before it gets to me). BUT, remember sickness prevention is easy when the pies are clean and the lungs are strong.

COLD PREVENTION SMOOTHIE

  • 3 kale leaves (cause this is the NEW BEEF) LOL
  • 1/4 cup spinach (cause green is alkalizing)
