Detox Journal : Day IX (Additional Tips)

After the men who were carrying the Ark of the Lord had gone six steps, David sacrificed a bull and a fattened calf. And David danced before the Lord with all his might, wearing priestly a garment. So David and all the people of Israel brought up the Ark of the Lord with shouts of joy and the blowing of ram’s horns.

Feeling: I forgot to mention in my previous post that on day eight, you stop taking the SP Cleanse pills (7 pills, 3 times per day). Instead you start to take the SP Green Food (5 pills, 2 times per day).  Another day and I can start to incorporate protein back into my diet in the form of fish and chicken.

My mother-in-law, Karen had done this particular SP Purification Program before under the guidance of a doctor. He suggested to her in addition to the SP Instructions, to also add 1 pad (tablespoon) of butter and Balsamic Vinaigrette (for the salads).

Today I went on a long run, for about 35 minutes, in the 3 PM heat. My legs were well rested after two days of rest, so it wasn’t a problem, but I began to be aware of a smell in my sweat. It is as if I was sweating toxins and stuff out of my pores. I’m starting to feel more energized during the day and not constantly exhausted. I expect the additional protein that gets added after yesterday will help even more!

Meals:

Breakfast- SP Shake (w/ blueberries,strawberries,  banana, flax oil, and water).

Lunch- Brown rice  with  frozen carrots, broccoli, cauliflower and a salad (spring mix w/ romaine, cucumbers, tomatoes, strawberries, green peppers and an apple)   

Dinner- My mother in a law made me a delicious salad. It had mixed greens (some of which came from my little garden), artichoke hearts, grape tomatoes, avocados, cucumbers. Topped with two whole Portobello Mushroom caps. The salad was served with a side of Asparagus sautéed in 1 tbs of butter .   Also, I had a SP Shake.

Detox Journal : Day IV

”’David replied to the Philistine (Goliath), “You come to me with sword, spear, and javelin, but I come to you in the name of the Lord of Heaven’s Armies-the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. Today the Lord will conquer you, and I will kill you and cutoff your head…And everyone assembled here will know that the LORD rescues his people, but not with sword and spear. This is the LORD’S battle, and he will give you to us! ”

I Samuel 17:45-47

Weight: ?

Feeling: The fourth day is pretty much the same as the first three;  although, I am no longer starving all the time. I do have cravings though. For pizza and meat. I can’t wait until next weds (day XI) when I can add chicken and fish to the cleanse. Yesterday set a record for me with BMs – three in one day! They also tend to be black/brown which I was told is a good sign that some toxins are coming out. Took a break from working out yesterday; however, I did a lot of yard work outside. I have really bad allergies so that just makes it that much tougher with the drowsiness. After an afternoon of registering at Babies R Us, I was exhausted and needed to rest.

Meals: My wife wants me to make a few corrections to the meals. Apparently, She has also been adding apples and tomatoes to the salads, and there was also green peppers in the stir fry yesterday.

Breakfast- SP Shake (w/ blueberries,strawberries, spinach, banana, flax oil, pomegranate juice, and water) and an apple.

Lunch- Salad (Romaine Lettuce, Spring Mix, Green Peppers, Cucumbers, tomatoes, apples, grapes), leftovers from dinner last night (See picture below), and a SP Shake.

Dinner- Dinner was  bust! It was first meal that Bridgette and I made together on this cleanse that we really didn’t enjoy. We made lentinels, cooked carrots, stir fried mushrooms, green peppers, and egg plant. SP Shake

Detox Journal – How I Make my SP Complete Shake

During the Standard Process (SP) Purification, you must drink 2-3 SP shakes a day. The SP Powder that you mix in contains a lot of yummy stuff like wheat grass, Brussels sprouts, kale, ect. that is ground up and added to the shakes. This is what I use in my shakes:

Step 1:

Add the following to the Blender:

  • 1/2 of a banana
  • 1 cup of frozen blueberries
  • 4 frozen strawberries (optional)
  • A handful of spinach (optional)
  • 2 Tbs of flax seed oil (optional)
  • 1/4 -1/2 of a cup (depending on concentration) of Pomegranate juice (I use an organic purple carrot and Pomegranate juice) – (also optional)
  • 2 full scoops of SP Complete Powder
  • 1/2 cup of water

Step 2:

  • Blend for about 2 minutes or until there is equal consistency

Step 3:

  • Ensure that shake is properly mixed; neither too watery (if so add more frozen fruit), nor too thick (add more water).
  • Drink and enjoy!
* I have 3 shakes per day unless I am making my vegetable drink (then only 2 shakes)*
