Citrus Dressing modification

I am not a fan of olive oil so my friend, Charlotte Layne (also a colon hydrotherapist) suggested altering it with grapeseed oil instead of olive oil. She also suggested using orange juice instead of grapefruit juice for a sweeter version. I made these adjustments and totally love the new dressing. I like to just drizzle it on raw veggies like tomatoes, cauliflower, etc. Dr. D, thanks again for great recipes to start from.

Homemade Fruit & Veggie Wash

There are several variations on this vinegar & water wash, some adding lemon and some with different ratios of water to vinegar. Play around with it a bit until it works for you! Organic is best for soft-skinned fruits & veggies, but when that isn't an option, give this a try!

For Hard-skinned Fruits and Vegetables:

1. Fill a spray bottle with equal parts white vinegar and water.

2. Then, spray the solution onto your fruits and vegetables; rub or scrub it in; and rinse.

For Soft-skinned Fruits and Vegetables:

1. Fill a bowl with equal parts white vinegar and water.

2. Then, soak your fruits and vegetables in the solution for a minute or two, and rinse.

Why This Works:
The acetic acid in vinegar kills bacteria and helps to dissolve the wax and pesticide residues found on the skins of many fruits and vegetables.

Merlin's Magic All Purpose Household Cleaner

This is an incredibly basic recipe that will provide you with some awesome, non-toxic all-purpose cleaner. I used my first batch in my bathroom last night and was blown away with how well it worked! Hard water stains, soap scum...gone with just a spray and a wipe! I really wouldn't have believed how well it works until I tried it, and can say from personal experience that it works better than chemical laden (toxic) cleaning product from the store, and won't irritate your skin or lungs in the process! It feels nice to use something that I know isn't toxic to me or anyone else in my house.

Even better, you can tweak this recipe to your liking. I added about a tablespoon of fresh lemon juice to my concoction to give it extra cleaning power and a lemon fresh scent. :-)

Fill a 16 oz. spray bottle nearly to the top with water. Add 3 Tablespoons of your favorite Dr. Bronner’s castile soap and 20-30 drops of tea tree oil. Shake it well and spray it on bathroom or kitchen surfaces, floors, even dirty little hands if they’re nearby. Wipe off with a damp cloth.
