I usually enter a New Year in the mood for cleaning out. Sometime during the hiatus between Christmas and New Year I start planning my clean regime around the house. I'm very good at planning. Not so good at the doing unfortunately.
However, the old digestive system hasn't been so good the last few weeks and this is one area that really could do with some attention. So in order to get some 'friendly' bacteria into my digestive system I've started taking Lactobacillus Acidophilus twice a day. In addition I'm taking two Red Clover Combination supplements twice a day to cleanse the toxins from the bloodstream. Caffeine has been replaced with peppermint tea (also great for the digestion) and I'm getting lots of nutrients from home made vegetable soup.
I've read about Bodytox Detox Foot Patches and apparently the results are amazing! You place the patches on the sole of each foot before going to bed and the toxins are absorbed while you sleep. I'm going to give these a try and see if what they are claiming is true.
While the house might not be spick and span, hopefully I'll be starting the New Year thoroughly cleansed!
Yes....that's exactly what I was afraid of!
Oh, and I'll keep that in mind. The mere mention of honey and I'm thinking ginseng tea is sounding pretty good.

LOL! I completely understand what you mean. I'm definitely still needing that morning caffeine shot so yes I am a coffee drinker (have been for many years).
But yes, the peppermint tea is good. Try it with a little manuka honey - very nice!

Actually, I noticed that you said caffeine has been totally replaced with peppermint tea. Maybe you were never a coffee drinker to begin with. I don't know.
Were it me, in order to replace my coffee in the morning, it's entirely possible that I might need to replace it with a defibrillator and paddles. Otherwise, I'd never wake up. I know, I know. I'm a dork.

That peppermint tea IS good, isn't it? Even if you do drink coffee, it's perfect for a hot drink towards the end of the night, or day depending on your schedule.
