Dr. Elizabeth Cox, ND, LAc Posted on March 14, 2023 by Dr. Sarita CoxMarch 14, 2023

Supervise the storehouse of pure energy. The kidneys store jing – our primal energy. This essence is to be guarded, protected, treasured not squandered or frittered away.

Soup Cleanse: Stock Variations

Dr. Elizabeth Cox, ND, LAc Posted on February 3, 2021 by Dr. Sarita CoxFebruary 26, 2021

Soup Cleanse: Stock Variations The soup cleanse is developed with simplicity in mind.  However, onion and garlic base may not be the best fit for everyone or we might tire of the same flavor or feel creative. A percent of people are sulfur intolerant; in these cases, I suggest a simple vegetable stock or herbal tea.     My favorite long game way to create vegetable stock is to consistently contribute all the trimmings from my organic vegetable meal prep into a collective freeze.  I save all the heads, tails, skins, peels, cores from vegetables and fruits that cross my cutting board and … Continue reading →
