A detox of the Kidneys and the Bladder, yes.

Try a handful to 3 or 4 cups of distilled water and start from there. You can always raise or lower the dosage.

It does not matter if the cornsilk is brown or green IF you are making a tea.

 

If you are eating it raw, you want to eat it "green" = more enzymes and it tastes better.

 

When making a tea, you are only interested in the biochemical properties of the silk which are there whether it is green or brown.

 

One of the favorite tricks of Valorie and me, is to go into a healthfood store and talk to the produce manager and ask him if we can chuck his corn for him and keep the silk. They always look at us as if we have three heads, kinda smirk and say, "go ahead" while thinking we are nuts. We always look back at him as if he has three heads, kinda smirk, go ahead and do it, and walk outa th' store with a pound or three of awesome organic corn silk totally FREE of Charge. Great game!!!

 

And even if some of the store bought commercial organic stuff is OK, and even though the capsules work to some degree, wait till you try some of the fresh stuff (brown or green = no difference really) right off the cob. Phew!!!!!!!! The stuff is awesome. As a matter of fact, go easy with it to begin with as it might turn on a major detox and you could be pissing flames if you're not careful ;o) LOL

 

Love,

 

Doc

improved today over what I felt like yesterday. Angel, I got some

unsweetened cranberry juice...WHEW I wasn't prepared for how tart

it was gonna be...ya know those beer commercials about 'bitter beer

face' where they get old men without their dentures in to pucker up

really bad? That's what I looked like today at dinner. ;} I really

appreciate all your thoughts!

Yeap, it's just like outside beauty, you know the old adage (or what ever they call it):

It's h--- being beautiful (on the inside, too) sometimes...!

Unsweetened cranberry juice is what I call McNasty!

And, I superbly LOVE cranberry sauce...right by itself at that...

Hope you feel top notch soon,

Angel

Tell me about it!! It was quite startling. But the

taste is hard for me. Tastes like old sweat socks. I

have to put spearment leaves in mine.
