Skin

The best way to detoxify your lymph and skin is exercise.  Exercise, water and proper nutrition are also important for constipation.  Jeannette has no problem with exercise.  She gets plenty of that. It's the water and the nutrition that are the issues.

This morning, guess what Jeannette had for breakfast? Yep! Brown rice cereal and water.  Whoopie!!! Are we predictable or what?  For lunch I packed her cinnamon/truvia toast, raspberries, chocolate coconut milk and one of those vegan chocolate chip cookies.  For dinner tonight, we had leftover chicken.  The kids baulked about it and said they were tired of chicken.  I was eating raw broccoli with ranch dressing, so I had the kids try that.  They didn't like it.  Jeannette finished her chicken, drank her shake and had 2 black bean brownies for dessert.  Again, she's not loving them, but wants to eat them.  Tonight in Jeannette's supplement shake, I added two more supplements.  They're called juice plus.  The doctor recommended that I give these to her along with everything else.  The other day when we met, I expressed my concern about her not eating the things she should, and not by lack of trying.  I was concerned of her weight dropping and her not getting the proper nutrition.  He said that the juice plus should help.  Juice plus provides nutrition from 17 different fruits, vegetables and grains.  It helps deliver key phytonutrients, supports healthy immune systems, protects DNA, and more.  I liked the idea of fruits and veggies in the form of a pill.  I'm going to start taking them as well.  I know it's not to be substituted for the real thing, but for my 7 year old and for me, it's a good supplement.
