Myasthenia
gravis is an autoimmune disease due to a dysfunctional immune system. Of
course, there are many other factors responsible for the disorder. Enhancing
the immune system is critical to controlling the disease symptoms. One of the
ways to do that is to detoxify the body of accumulated toxins and then
rejuvenate it.
Burdock and Daikon Drink
Burdock
root has been used as both food and medicine in Asia and Europe for thousands
of years. Recently, it has been used as a nourishing tonic for cancer, liver
disease, and rheumatism. Burdock root is a staple diet of the Japanese, who are
among the people with the longest lifespan in the world.
Fresh
burdock root is available at many greengrocers, Asian markets, and natural food
stores in the United States.
Daikon
is Japanese radish. Its phytochemicals have recognized healing and
anti-carcinogenic properties:
- It cleanses the blood (the kidneys).
- It promotes energy circulation.
- It increases the metabolic rate (a weight loss remedy in Asia).
- It treats hangovers.
- It decongests the lungs, clears sore throat, colds, and edema.
The
burdock and daikon drink can be taken any time, and as much as you like.
Ingredients
- One burdock root (about 24 inches long)
- One daikon with green tops
- One small carrot with green tops
Preparation
- Cut all ingredients into small pieces.
- Place them in a pot with water double the volume of the ingredients.
- Bring to a boil.
- Pour out the content, and drink it.
- You can repeat the process one more time. This time, after bringing it to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer it for another 20 minutes. Let the ingredients steep in the hot water for another 20 minutes before drinking
The burdock and daikon drink is so easy to make and tastes refreshing. Drink it everyday. Use your diet to control your myasthenia gravis symptoms.
