Red Milk
Equal parts fresh carrot juice (use a juicer) and sterilizedmilk. Save the carrot pulp for salads and soups.
C-Milk
Milk can absorb a surprising amount of vitamin C powder
without curdling or changing its flavor. Try ½ tsp. in a glass of
cold milk.
My Own Soda Pop
Excellent for stomach distress. Put 1 tsp. citric acid, 2 tbs.
vegetable glycerin (see Sources), 2 tbs. honey, and 1 lemon,
juiced by hand, into a quart jar and fill with cold water. Refrigerate
until ready to use. Then add 1 tsp. baking soda (chemically
pure only, see Sources) and shake a few times, keeping the lid
tight. Pour over a few ice cubes. Many variations are possible:
other fruit concentrates, made in the blender, can be used along
with some lemon juice; for example, 2 blended whole apples
(peeled), blended pineapple, orange or grapefruit. Always add a
bit of lemon to give it zip. You may add a pinch of ginger or
other pure spice.
Note: The amount of sodium in ½ tsp. baking soda is .476
grams. If you have heart disease, high blood pressure, or edema,
use potassium bicarbonate instead. Ask your doctor what an acceptable
amount of sodium or potassium bicarbonate is. I would
suggest limiting yourself to one glass of soda pop a day, even if
you do not have heart disease.
Another Note: the citric acid kills bacteria, while the carbonation
brings relief.
