I have type 2 Diabetes. It has been a long journey for me & it hasn’t been an easy journey. My entire world revolves around food & how often I eat. This recipe helps me to detoxify my system. When I was first diagnosed, the doctors do what they usually do, put me on expensive pills & constant warnings that if I don’t get this under control, I would need to use insulin. To top it all off, they said that my cholesterol & blood pressure were too high. I was going broke & there didn’t seem to be a way out.
That’s when I went to my chiropractor, who does everything naturally, and asked him if there was a natural way to lower my numbers. He put me on The Page Fundamental Diet. Basically, the diet is, If God didn’t make it, don’t eat it. The diet is in 2 phases. My soup is made from the items that I can have in phase 1.
I am now off all of my pills & my numbers are in the ‘good’ range. What they don’t tell you is that the diabetic diet keeps you diabetic. They also don’t tell you that carbohydrates raise your sugar levels. I must admit, sometimes I fall off the wagon & once you start to eat carbs, you crave them. The only way I can get rid of the cravings is to make my ‘Detox Soup’. I eat it for most meals for about a week. By the end of the week, I’m no longer craving carbs. I tend to make 2 pots of this soup in a week.
This is how I make it:
