On the food front, things are still going well with entering Phase IV slowly. I have introduced olive oil into one meal per day and totally adore the fresh carrot juice first thing each morning.
To continue the natural living part of my plan, I mixed up two new items for "the bod" tonight. First was an essential oil spray bottle of bug repellant (using doTERRA TerraShield, lemon and peppermint oils). West Nile virus was confirmed in Illinois not far from where I live, so it was time to get my natural defenses up. No DEET for me, thank you very much... no need to poison myself to avoid getting West Nile.
The second project was making my own toothpaste, a trick I read about at www.healthextremist.com. It simply uses coconut oil, baking soda and an essential oil (I used my absolute favorite, doTERRA On Guard). The toothpaste went very easily into a small GoToob I ordered from amazon. I had already brushed tonight, so will try my new product tomorrow morning for the first time.
