Cleansing by giving the digestive system a rest
I’m so excited! I’ve booked myself for 2 weeks at the Optimum Health Institute in San Diego. I’ve been wanting to go for years and finally saved enough money to make the trip.

I’m not consistent about eating living foods. Breakfast this morning was coffee with milk, 2 slices of buttered whole wheat toast, some home-grown cantaloupe, and a Skinny Cow fudge bar. The cantaloupe was fresh from the garden, but disappointing. It was both mushy and gritty in texture. What’s with that? The fudge bar was...
