	1. FRUITS & OLIVE OIL - Acid Fruit oranges - pineapples - sour apples - sour plums - lemons - grapefruits - sour peaches - limes - tangerines - sour grapes - tomatoes These are the most detoxifying fruits and excellent foods. They should be avoided when you have the flu because the body could overreact detoxifying and make you even more sick. Some people may have problems with these fruits because of their acid content. The acid though is a healthy and organic nutritional element (for instance: ascorbic acid is vitamin c, found especially in citrus fruits and vegetables). Sometimes one type of fruit from this category can irritate a particular part of the body. This can be caused by an allergic reaction caused by cow milk. There is a good chance that after staying away from dairy this reaction disappears. - Low-acid Fruit apricots - blueberries - huckleberries - strawberries - nectarines - raspberries - blackberries - gooseberries - mangos - elderberries - olives - fresh figs - sweet apples - cherries- sweet peaches - sweet plums - persimmons These fruits are less detoxifying than acid fruits and can be handled well in any amount. - Sweet Fruit dates - sweet grapes - pears - prunes - raisins - dried figs Rehydrate dried fruit by soaking it overnight in a jar of water. - Melons watermelons - cantaloupes - honey dew - galia Are like all other fruits excellent food. What's very special about watermelons is that they contain as much iron as spinach.

Sweeteners make you crave for sugar about 30 minutes after consumption so you end up robbing the cookie jar. Unrefined brown sugars are natural and provide you with energy. brown sugar - cane sugar Read more
