Pineapple Ginger Cleansing Juice


Why this drink? Fresh pineapple juice is rich in antioxidants

and aids in digestion. I have been on a pineapple juice

kick lately, no I haven't been making my own but hey it's

better than none. Honestly, I've been feeling a little bit better with it.

I think I will have to give this combo a try.


Pineapple is also a good source of Vitamin C, figer and manganese.

It also contains an enzyme called bromelain which comes from

the stalk, studies show that it is an anti-inflammatory. It also

helps to metabolize protein which can help burn

away unwanted fat.


Ginger root has so many great health benefits!

Anti-inflammatory, antioxidants and antibacterial benefits.

It also helps relieve congestion, improves blood circulation,

aids with digestion and stimulates our body's natural

detox process.


Turmeric is also great! It does have similar benefits to ginger.


Lime is rich with vitamins, minerals, flavonoids, antioxidants,

anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties.


How to make juice without a juicer:

Prep fruit and roots, chop ingredients into smaller pieces than

you would if feeding through a juicer. Blend all ingredients in

a high powered blender until smooth. Strain it through

a fine mesh strainer.


To make the detox Pineapple drink you will need:

3c fresh pineapple, peeled

2" fresh ginger root, peeled

3 pieces of turmeric

1 peeled lime


Create:

Peel and chop the pineapple, ginger, turmeric and lime

(if you don't have a juicer, peel everything still, chop the pineapple and lime small and grate the ginger and turmeric).


Push everything through a juicer or mix in a high power blender.

Stir the juice with a wooden spoon to blend well.


Pour 1/4 glass full of juice, 1/4 glass of crushed ice and add

water. Garnish with a lime slice if you would like.


This recipe makes 2 drinks.

Buffalo Chicken Nachos

I tried to look up buffalo chicken shit on a shingle with no recipes but I came across this one. Now you can do the nachos or you can create your own shit on a shingle version with a piece of toast and melted cheese on top of the toast with the buffalo chicken on top...hmmmm... Anyways, here ya go. Recipe makes 6-8 servings. What you'll need: Nachos.... 1/3 - 1/2c you're favorite hot sauce 3c cooked shredded chicken 8-10oz tortilla chips 1 1/3 - 2c shredded Mexican blend cheese Topping.... 1/2c plain greek yogurt 3-5T more of hot sauce 3-4 green onions thinly sliced Create: Preheat the oven to 400˚F. In a medium bowl, mix the hot sauce with the shredded chicken until well coated. Set aside. Place the tortilla chips in an even layer on a baking sheet, face side up so the chips will hold the toppings. Add the chicken evenly over the chips, followed by the cheese. Bak

Home Remedies for Sinus Drainage

Every time I get a sinus infection I have sinus drainage forever or at least it seems so I had looked up ways to help the drainage. Below are a few ideas to try next time you start looking like Rudolph. Drink plenty of fluids Run a humidifier or vaporizer Use saline solution and or a Neti Pot (make your own mixture for the Neti Pot by dissolving 1tsp of sea salt in 1 pint of distilled water. Add a pinch of baking soda to the mixture.) Steam! Boil some water and add some eucalyptus oil to the water (you can use Walmart's brand for this). Lower the pot to a simmer and take a towel over your head and put your head over the pot. Chicken Soup, yes you read that right! A 2000 study found that chicken soup reduces inflammation associated with sinus congestion, runny nose and colds. Warm & Cold Compresses, lay back with the warm compress draped across your nose, cheeks and forehead for 3 minutes. Remove and replace with a cold compress for 30 second
