I'll join you with this. I've done it before, but not for long enough.

Dandelion is very good at detoxyfying. You need to eat 3 leaves a day for 3 weeks. I've done it in the spring and I sure wouldn't try it in July while the leaves are so big and taste probably a lot worse. You can make infusion with the flower and you drink it when the water is yellow. 2 cups per day.. I haven't try it though, so I don't know what it taste like.
Enough rambling, I'll go buy some lemon tomorrow and start Monday a.m.

I don't know if dandelion will grow well in a pot. It has a very deep root, but I guess having a young plant in a pot and changing the plant every year might work?????? You got me thinking now....I think I might try it.

I have read it my books that you only have to find a dandelion root, chop it in pieces of about 1 inch and lay it on the side in the dirt, cover it and it will grow.

Dandelion is a powerful detoxicant. It works on the blood, the liver and also on the kidneys as being a diuretic.

I bought my lemon, for tomorrow's start.

Lemon and water is fine. I use to put 2 trops of EO of lemon and grapefuit into 1 litre bottle and bring that to work every day, Fresh lemon taste so much better!

I was wondering, do you squeeze the whole lemon or only few slices?

I will go and look at dollar store for a juicer.

How long do you do the water lemon for?

How much lemon to use

If you are in good health and weigh less than 150 pounds, squeeze the juice of one half a lemon (one ounce) into a glass of purified water and drink this mixture twice a day (one whole lemon a day.) If you weigh over 150 pounds, squeeze the juice out of an entire lemon (two ounces) into a glass of purified water and drink this mixture twice a day (two whole lemons a day.)
