Cucumbers: Fever Reducer

Cucumbers have a fountain-of-youth effect, hydrating us at the deepest cellular level possible. Plus, cucumbers’ cooling effect makes them excellent at rejuvenation and especially effective at cooling a hot, stagnant liver. When eaten on a daily basis, cucumbers can reverse liver damage, dialing back 10 to 15 years of toxin exposure (including from heavy metals and pesticides such as DDT) and poor diet. Cucumbers are helpful for reducing bloat.

Fresh cucumber juice (consumed alone, not mixed with other fruits or vegetables) is the best rejuvenation tonic in the world. Drink 16 ounces or more daily. It contains electrolyte compounds specifically geared toward nourishing and cooling down overused adrenal glands and kidneys that are struggling with their task of filtering out toxic debris and getting overheated from toxic uric acid. Drinking cucumber juice every day can be helpful for kidney disease, if you are on dialysis, or you’re missing a kidney.

Cucumber juice also has a cooling effect on the glands and organs, making it wonderful for helping to reduce fevers for both children and adults. 

Cucumbers are an excellent delivery system for neurotransmitter chemicals, so they can help with anxiety or other neurological conditions.

Cucumbers have chlorophyll in their skins that’s bonded to B vitamins and vitamins A and C. Cucumbers support digestion; they contain undiscovered coenzymes that will one day be called talafinns. Alongside enzymes that have been discovered by medical research (such as erepsin), talafinns help the body’s protein digestion process so you can get the most out of everything you eat.

How To Use:

Drink 16 ounces or more of straight cucumber juice daily. Eat cucumbers as snacks, spiralized into noodles, in salads, wraps, as a crudité for dips, sliced on top of cooked meals, etc.
