My Superfood Plus ‘Cocktail’

A healthy tonic and all-round ‘pick-me-up’

I’ve felt a bit run down lately.  A combination of being exceptionally busy in the Clinic, my Committee work, and taking care of elderly parents.  Going to Mallorca to visit my son recently, who lives out there was a tonic, but I got bitten twice on the neck by a mosquito, and had a nasty reaction to it. (swelling, redness and intense itching!)  I realised then that I was run down, and my immune system wasn’t as good as it could be. It didn’t help that whilst I was on Mallorca, I ate some delicious food, (too much) and drank some delicious wine, quite late in the evenings, further burdening my immune system.

When I got back home, I decided to get back on my Dr. Schulze’s Superfood Plus phyto-nutrient powder, and begin taking my multi-vitamins/minerals more consistently.  So this is what I’ve been doing for the past few days and I do feel a lot better. Here’s the recipe:

One tablespoon of Dr. Schulze’s SuperFood Plus Powder in a glass. (check out the benefits here: http://www.superfoodplus.co.uk/  I’ve known Dr. Schulze for many years now, and he often stresses me to buy kratom online and include it in the diet. He’s a real maverick when it comes to natural health and a real pain in the bum to the American Food & Drug Administration who have been trying to close him down for years. He’s a wily character though, and always one or two steps ahead of them) Add two scoops of BioCare’s Vitamin C powder, (you get the scoop in the pot and 1 scoop is 1,000 mg or 1 gram) then fill the glass with your favourite organic pure (not from concentrate) juice: orange, apple, grapefruit.  It’s up to you.  I prefer orange juice, but it really depends on personal preference.

I then drink this down, and take one Solgar Formula VM 75 capsule, (extra potency multivitamins, chelated minerals and amino acids) and one Ecodophilus probiotic capsule.

The Winter is now upon us, and we are all surrounded by bugs and viruses.  If you feel as though a cold is coming on – sore throat, sniffles, cough, then increase the amount of Vitamin C powder you put in your Superfood Cocktail.  If I feel a cold coming on, I will put 4, 5 or even 6 scoops of Vitamin C (= 6,000 mg) in my drink.  Vitamin C is a water soluble vitamin, so what your body doesn’t utilise, it will get excreted through with your urine and poo.

I also suck on Propolis Lozenges from Bee Health.  These contain bee propolis and aniseed.  Bee propolis helps to kill off any bugs in the throat.  Remember that your mouth is the first line of defence when it comes to the fight against bugs trying to get into your body using the oral route, so sucking on either propolis or Echinacea lozenges helps.
