VITAMIN C
OK! OK! OK! So you just found out that almost all of the Vitamin
Boys are making their Vitamin-C from Genetically Engineered Corn.
What you are about to read is highly confidential and there’s not one
Giant Pharmaceutical Company that wants you to see this data.
What! You exclaim. How am I supposed to get enough Vitamin C into my
family if I don't buy store bought supplements???
Answer: You make your own!!! ;o)))
How bout one more super free organic source-----A cup of pine needle tea
made with 1/2 cup of finely chopped pine needles has the equivalent vit. C
of 6 lemons. I use white pine needles but when I did a search on the subject
it was said that any pine was OK.. Bring a cup of water to boil--put the
chopped needles in & simmer for { I think it said 20 mins } I usually do 5.
on low heat.....Add-- honey-- cinnamon-- ginger--clove--or what ever you
want to flavor--Find a beautiful place to sit---& Sip.--------------.Lois
DO NOT consume this tea if you are pregnant or think you might be
pregnant. It has been known to cause the death of an unborn child within 24
hours!
(though no one is sure why as of yet--always consult your physician first
Select your pine needles by picking the newest green ones from the tree.
These would be the ones nearest the end of each branch, and slightly lighter
green than the rest of the needles. Step 2 Finely chop them until
you have about 1/2 cup. Step 3 Add your needles to the boiling water and
simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the volume of water has reduced by
about 1/3. Step 4 Allow it to steep for anywhere from 20 minutes to
overnight, depending on how strong you like your tea. The result will be a
reddish
colored tea with a mild taste. Store in the refrigerator
