Vegetable Broth

Fresh made vegetable mineral broth is a great food resource to provide your body of electrolyte minerals while cleansing, especially if your cleansing during cold weather. This recipe was taken from "Cleanse and Purify Thyself" from Dr. Richard Anderson.

How to Make a Vegetable Broth:

• 3 quarts of distilled water

• 3 medium to large potatoes

• 2-3 stalks of cut celery

• 1-2 large leaves of any greens such as collard, mustard, kale, etc or 1 turnip or half-bunch of parsley. Even carrot or bet tops will do. Whatever is green.

• You can even add kelp if you want high concentrates of a wide variety of minerals.

Use a stainless steel pot and bring it to a light boil with the lid on. Simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and after it has cooled a bit, strain and throw out the chunks, keeping only the broth. Refrigerate. Drink 2/3 cups a day.

You can also add miso to it if you need a more salty taste and want to replenish the good bacteria on your digestive track. Make sure that you don't cook the miso but add it to your cup once the broth is done to preserve its probiotics.
