Several years ago during a self-care challenge, I wrote this post to share a product/recipe that I love with my clients. Seems like time to share it again. Hope it’s helpful!

Today, I want to give you a recipe that has been a Godsend to our family.

{I’m also going to include a website where you can buy this self-care product already made, but this is not a paid endorsement. I just sincerely want to share something that I think should be in every family kitchen in the world!}

No, not a recipe for something to eat, exactly, but something to help you if you don’t feel like eating; or if you ate something that didn’t agree with you; or something to calm an upset stomach; or help clean up a yeast overgrowth or any number of other things.

The recipe is for a GI cleaner! And it is amazing! (This is SUPER self-care right?!)

My friend Jonell Francis experienced many health challenges in her late teens and early adulthood. She is such a thinker and a doer that after a period of time of not getting completely well, she dug in and learned all she could about her health. Eventually, she did get well, and in the process, has been able to help many others improve their health through her company, My Feel Good Foods, now Tumtree.

I have really enjoyed her products, but also her Feel Good Foods cookbook, https://myfeelgoodfoods.com/store/feel-good-cookbook/ which is where I found the recipe for the famed Exodus GI Sponge! (Now tumtree.life)

After using the first jar I ordered, I thought this is something I’d like to have on hand for the rest of forever! So I decided to follow the recipe and mix up a batch of my own. With Jonell’s permission, I share this treasure with you:

Exodus GI Sponge
1 cup psyllium husk powder
1 cup apple fiber or apple pectin
1/2 cup bentonite, orso or green clay
3 Tbs. senna leaf powder
1 Tbs. cinnamon
1/2 Tbs. ginger

Glory be, it worked too!

So if general gut health is important to you, or if you have ever battled Candida, or if you need to drop some weight, or if you have food allergies, or if you like to occasionally do a little cleansing, you might want to try Jonell’s Exodus GI Sponge, and or mix up a batch of your own. {I have enjoyed having the original, labeled jar.}

This is safe for kids and the elderly, pregnant or nursing moms; so gentle and simple and natural. Not only that, but it works better than any prescription or over-the-counter product I’m aware of!

Remember, that in order for you to be in vibrant health, your guts need to be in vibrant health! Our intestines feel and think and do so much for keeping our chemistry balanced, food digested and of course, wastes cleaned out.

1/4 – 1/2 teaspoon of Exodus GI Sponge, followed by 8 ounces of water first thing in the morning is a game-changer!

What else are you doing for your insides? Eating fiber? Eating a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables? Drinking sufficient amounts of water? Staying away from trans-fatty foods, chlorinated water, artificial flavors, colors and stimulants? Good for you!

I wish you wellness, from the inside out!

Love,
