🟠🔴🟠🔴 KIDNEY HEALTH

🔴Shake Your Roots

RADISH / CARROT MINERAL SHAKE

2 Scoops Plant-Based Protein Powder or homemade
2/3 Cup Coconut Water unsweetened
1/4 Cup Radishes, Grated
1/3 Cup Carrots, Grated
1 Inch Fresh Ginger, Chopped
2–3 Tablespoons Fresh Lemon Juice
1/2 Cup Crushed Ice
Top with Dehydrated Coconut — Optional

Start your blender with the coconut water and blend in the protein powder for about 20 seconds. Then add the remaining ingredients and blend until incorporated.

Grating the vegetables distributes their minerals more evenly and begins the digestive work — making nutrients easier to access and absorb.

Calories ~165 — The rich fiber structure softens the carbohydrate impact.

🔴🟠Nutrient Alignment — Kidney Support

Radish has long been valued for its natural diuretic qualities, helping the body move excess fluid while supporting the kidneys’ filtration rhythm. It also provides sulfur compounds that assist detoxification pathways.

Carrots bring beta-carotene and gentle alkalizing minerals that support cellular repair without placing heavy metabolic demand on the kidneys.

Coconut water contributes electrolytes in a natural balance — especially potassium — helping maintain fluid equilibrium in the body.

Fresh lemon juice provides citrate, a compound known to support kidney health by helping maintain a healthy urinary environment.

Ginger enhances circulation and digestion, encouraging efficient nutrient delivery and metabolic flow without burdening the system.

Plant protein offers clean amino acid support without the metabolic heaviness often associated with animal proteins — a gentler approach when kidney resilience is a priority.

Together, this blend focuses less on calories and more on hydration, mineral balance, and gentle detox support — all important for maintaining kidney vitality.

🥕🥕CARROT DRESSING

Not a Recipe. 🥕🥕🥑 Nutrient Alignment.

“I teach people how to nourish themselves so that when life becomes uncertain, they are not.”

CARROT DRESSING*
1 c. carrots, shredded
1 small clove garlic
1 small avocado
1-2 T. white sauerkraut
1/2 t. ginger juice
Blend until smooth.
Yield: 11/2 cups

🥕 Carrots
Rich in beta-carotene — a fat-soluble carotenoid requiring lipid presence for absorption.

🥑 Avocado
Provides monounsaturated fat to enhance carotenoid uptake and support membrane integrity.

🧄 Garlic + Ginger
Contain sulfur compounds and gingerols that support circulatory flow and digestive activation — improving nutrient distribution.

🥬 White Sauerkraut
Fermented cabbage introduces organic acids and beneficial microbes that support gut terrain and enhance mineral utilization.

Synergy Pearls

• Fat + carotenoids → improved absorption
• Fermentation + fiber → microbiome cooperation
• Sulfur compounds + polyphenols → oxidative buffering
• Gentle raw blending → preserves enzymatic activity

This is not just a dressing.
It is structural layering.

Color for antioxidant diversity.
Fat for delivery.
Fermentation for terrain.
Aromatics for signaling.

Purposeful combinations.

❗️FINISHED 6 DAYS 🥬🥒🍋🍈🧄EXTRACTED JUICES❗️

I feel incredible after juicing 6 days without solid food. Consuming (3 ) 10oz. Glasses of green drink and herbal tea at night. Completely reduced inflammation / bloat plus weight.

MY juices required little digestion, making them easily assimilated and supplied enough nutrients that stimulated my body to clear waste; without depleting sugar stores in the liver and muscles or breakdown muscle tissue.

Multiple days and refraining from solids enhances ongoing detoxification, putting the body in healing mode. The body always increases detox when we get more rest and restrict calories. And most of us take in 10 to 20 % more calories than we need. The average person has 2,500 calories of carbohydrate reserves stored in the liver and muscles to use for energy and 112,000 calories in fat stored, at ideal weight.

The body uses 20% of it’s daily given energy to exercise and about 15% to digest foods …so by refraining from digestion/assimilation you are giving the body all that time to houseclean. To repair and rebuild and clear out the toxins….that will enable you to absorb nutrients better.

Remember the First 2-3 days are the most difficult but going into day 4 your body know you mean business and gives in to a euphoric rush of energy.

I broke my fast with shredded raw veggies…dressing with lemon juice and zest. Using my salad shooter created a texture easy to chew and extracted moisture from the vegetables. A little carrot was just enough sugar …no more.

CLEANSING SALAD🟢🟢🟢🟩

Parsley is more than a garnish…..or a flavoring herb…it can be a major component in many dishes.

This versatile herb provides a concentrated source of nutrients. It’s particularly rich in vitamins A, C, and K… with 6.2 mg iron in 100 grams and a Glycemic Index of 32.
The vitamins and beneficial plant compounds in parsley improve bone health, protect against chronic diseases, and provide antioxidant benefits.
You can incorporate these powerful fresh leaves easily into your diet by adding them to soups, salads, marinades, and sauces ………….using them like spinach or lettuce.
Parsley pairs well with sweet….cooking the red bell in this salad adds this sweetness plus I like the cooked/ raw combo. Pine nuts are great too with Parsley.

PARSLEY WATERCRESS SALAD
Watercress 1 Bunch
Parsley 1 Cup Italian Leaves
Red Bell Pepper 1 Small Sliced
Red Onion 1/2 cup sliced thin
Cherry Tomatoes 1/2 Cup
Cucumber 1/2 Sliced
Lemon
Olive Oil

Wash and finely slice the Red Pepper and sauté in a little avocado oil until softened (gives a much sweeter flavour). Set aside to cool
Wash and finely slice half a Cucumber
Peel and slice a Red Onion
Wash and chop some fresh Parsley
Wash and gently dry the Watercress
Compile your delicious salad – Watercress first, then some stacks of Cucumber, Red Onion and Cherry Tomato and then the sliced Red Peppers. Finish with a substantial flourish of Parsley…
Dress simply with a big squeeze of Lemon or Lime and a mere drizzle of good Olive Oil.

🟢 GREEN VIBRANCE – Giving Greens Power Drink 🟢

There are days when chewing a salad feels heroic.
Blend it instead.

This creamy, ginger-warmed green drink was born in cancer clinic kitchens — where nutrient density had to meet real-life fatigue.

I trained oncology kitchen teams for decades to prioritize nutrient density without digestive strain.

This was one of our go-to blends.

Ginger for warmth.
Healthy fats for absorption.
Greens for micronutrient depth.

It’s not about “beating” anything.

It’s about supporting the body while treatments do their work.

That’s the difference.

No hype.
No miracle claims.
Just micronutrients, healthy fats, and digestive support in a glass.

This creamy green blend supports:
• digestion
• circulation
• immune resilience
• steady energy

Just thoughtful ingredients working together.

Blend:
¾ cup unsweetened almond milk
1 scoop greens powder
1 tbsp almond butter
1 tbsp fresh ginger
½ tsp nutmeg
Ice

Optional: monk fruit + pinch chipotle 🌶

Consistency > perfection.

VALENTINES FLAX OIL BARK❤️❤️❤️

Now here is a treat you can make in 20 minutes and eat totally guilt-free. No Sugar❤️No Spikes❤️❤️❤️

COCONUT BARK

INGREDIENTS
1 cup coconut butter
2 Envelopes Cherry Ultima Electrolyte Powder
2 Tablespoons Flax Oil (adds health & creaminess) optional
4 Tablespoons Coconut Oil MELTED
1/4 Teaspoon Pure Monk Fruit
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, peppermint extract or vanilla beans
Toppings: 1/2 cup of nuts, or fresh berries or Lily’s dark chocolate pieces.
I break irregular pieces from Lily’s dark chocolate bar.
To Make Coconut Butter( or buy store -bought)
In a food processor or hi power blender process 3 1/4 full cups of organic unsweetened dehydrated coconut. This takes about 10 minutes. I took it to a more runny stage. You can stop at the soft paste stage but for me it was a bit grainy. Now add coconut oil and Flax oil to the coconut butter in your processing bowl and add the electrolyte packets and pulse until smooth. Taste and add sweetener..to your liking plus vanilla ; pulse until combined. This will be a sweet and sour taste. Pour into a pie plate lined with parchment sprinkling on toppings and freeze. In 20 minutes you can break into pieces and serve. I thought the electrolyte powders would have made it pink but it turned peachy. It was good❤️

In Health, Happy Valentines Day ❤️❤️❤️❤️

FATS- As a general rule of thumb, stay away from fats high in omega-6 (they cause inflammation in the body), and run as fast as you can from highly processed fat(anything that says "hardened", or contains trans-fats) like margarine. Eat foods naturally high in fat like chicken , fish, and nuts💥 Again use dense protein like a condiment...
Thank you Michelle…✔️

MANAGE BLOOD SUGAR✔️✔️✔️
Detox Sugars✔️✔️from OVERINDULGENCE

Bitter Goard is for EVERYONE ✔️DIABETES is Not a Requirement ✔️

Bitter melon can decrease blood sugar levels. Diabetes medications are also used to lower blood sugar. Taking bitter melon along with diabetes medications might cause your blood sugar to be too low. Be sure to Monitor your blood sugar closely.
✔️DID YOU OVER DO DESSERT…….JUICE BITTER GOARD THE NEXT DAY✔️✔️

How much bitter melon should I take for diabetes?
Alternatively, bitter melon extracts and powders can be purchased online or in many health food stores. Kaiser Permanente lists the daily bitter melon diabetes dosage as 50 to 100 milliliters of juice or 5 grams of powdered fruit, taken 3 times a day. However bitter goard is for everyone.

You can find it at many Asian grocery stores all year round. It might be fresh, dried, canned, or pickled. Buy fresh for juicing. There are bitter melon seeds, flowers, leaves, and juice. You could even find bitter melon tea bags.The Chinese bitter melon board is less bitter. The goard taste similar to cucumber.

Maple Frozen Almond Yogurt Bark - PROBIOTIC SNACKS

Thanks to various miracles of science, frozen yogurt does in fact retain the active cultures ( a.k.a. probiotics) .

In fact, the University of Michigan Health System explains that the probiotics within yogurt are able to survive the freezing process without altering the health benefits. The live cultures enter a dormant state during freezing, returning to an active state when they come in contact with body heat after ingestion.

1 1/2 Cups Almond or Coconut Yogurt Plain
1 Probiotic Capsule Opened ( optional)
4 Tabelspoons Coconut Oil Melted & Cooled
2 Tablespoon Flax Oil ( for health and a creamy texture)
3Tablespoons Monk Fruit Syrup
1 Tablespoon Monk Fruit Syrup for Topping
2 Tablespoons Pumpkin Seeds

To make my Bark, I begin by lining a pie plate baking dish with parchment paper, making sure to leave enough of the paper to overhang the edges of the dish to easily lift the finished bark from the dish when it is ready.

Next blend yogurt and Syrup with the melted cooled coconut oil & flax oil. You can add a probiotic capsule for a little extra power if you want. Just open the cap and stir in the powder. Pour into lined dish and top with pumpkin seeds and 1 Tablespoon of syrup. Freeze . Break the bark into pieces and store in a zip lock bag for serving.

Salad recipe on www.cooktobeatcancer.com....promotional😊

Did You Know?

Ninety-five percent of the U.S. population is deficient in iodine, which is essential for proper brain, thyroid, endocrine, heart, o***y, adrenal, lymph, and immune development. Natural sources of iodine are sea vegetables such as kelp, dulse, and agar-agar, and vegetables such as summer squash, mustard greens, Swiss chard, kale, asparagus, turnips, and spinach. Iodine deficiency is seen in children whose mothers were deficient during their gestation, and is the leading cause of developmental disability and cretinism in the world.

Children of mothers who were given iodine supplementation during gestation scored thirteen points higher on IQ tests than those not supplemented. A randomized study was done in central Java, Indonesia of preschool children age twenty-five to twenty-nine months, in which 100 milligrams of iodine were added to their drinking water daily. After twelve weeks, the IQ scores of children who had been given the iodine showed an increase in 8.8 points compared to the controls.

Get started and simply cut strips of Nori and top your salads or steam….
