Guest guest Posted April 29, 2006 Report Share Posted April 29, 2006 Hi Raven, I always use Vinegar, and I used to add Hydrogen Peroxide to water to clean the veggies. I just use vinegar now due to saving on money. 1 cup of vinegar to a gallon of water. Let soak for about ten minutes and you're vegetables have most of the pesticide, and dirt off. About the Acidophilus, mine recommends 1/4 teaspoon daily in milk or yogurt for kids contains 4 billion viable cells. I purchased iFlora 4-kids and we put it in our smoothies. I'm not sure what the adult proportion would be, I'm assuming double. HTH, Blessings, Nancy Robbins - S. Florida ******************************************** Good Washing, and Acidophilus Two questions... I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on good washing techniques for fruits and veggies. Obviously it should always be done... but just rinsing can't possibly be enough, even if I DO have a filter on my tap! Was just more of a curiosity, to see if anyone had any suggestions. Being stuck in a big city I can't always get my hands on good organics and would rather buy SOME fruits and veggies than go without completely... Also, I picked up acidophilus today, as suggested by many. Is there a suggested dose? Also, it says on the bottle to only refridgerate if desired. What is best? I'll be taking it to boost my immune system and aid in all my digestive problems (From ulcers to colon and kidneys...) but was wondering if I could somehow get more info on what, when, why, and how much? LOL Generally just a more spelled out about the supplement in it's entirity! ) Thanks! Love and Blessings, ~Raaven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
