From gingivitis to weight loss and healthy digestion… guest today had simple and natural solutions for whatever ails you! We welcomed to the show the author of, “Power Plants: Simple Home Remedies You Can Grow”, Bryce Wylde. His expert-approved home remedies include:

•For gingivitis: Recipe demo “Blend a couple cups of chopped rhubarb with 100 proof vodka or brandy, and the contents of four capsules of whole-fruit organic cranberry powder. Seal the bottle and store it in a dark place for a couple of weeks then strain it. To use it, swish it in your mouth for one minute before bed time.”

•Fiber for wieght loss and healthy disgestion A tasty way to add some fiber: “Most Americans don’t get the necessary amount of fiber in their diet.”

•A tasty treat that I like is a chocolate hummus:

o 15 oz canned chickpeas, drained (reserve liquid) and rinsed

o ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa or carob powder

o 3 Tbsp agave or maple syrup

o 3 Tbsp tahini paste (optional)

o 1.5 tsp vanilla or rum extract

o 6 Scoops prebiotic fiber powder

o 3-4 Tbsp water (from canned chickpeas)

o Pinch sea salt flakes

o 1. Add all of the ingredients and a small pinch of salt in a food processor; process until smooth

•For replacing electrolytes while training: “Many people are trying to avoid some of the ingredients typically found in commercial sports drinks. A good alternative is a drink made with whole-fruit organic cranberry juice, manuka honey and a touch of Himalayan salt.”
