In Liver Rescue, I share how each of these ingredients can support you and your loved ones in healing. Let’s take a look at a couple…

Apples provide living water to support the liver’s hydration capabilities, so it can store the water and then release it back into the bloodstream when dehydration or dirty blood syndrome occurs. The fruit acids in apples help cleanse the liver by dispersing toxic films that build up inside its storage banks. Apples starve out bacteria, yeast, mold, other funguses, and viruses from the intestinal tract and liver. Great for dissolving gallstones.

Dates help expel and eliminate mucus from the intestinal tract. The sugars in dates also fuel the liver; they’re a great source of glucose for recovery and restoration that allows the liver to maximize its over 2,000 chemical functions.

Caramel Apple Rings 

Ingredients:

• 1 lemon, juiced, divided 
• 3 red apples 
• 1 cup Medjool dates, pitted 
• 1 inch vanilla bean (optional) 
• ½ cup water 

OPTIONAL TOPPINGS 

• 1 cup raspberries 
• ¼ cup raisins 
• ¼ cup dried mulberries 
• ¼ cup shredded coconut (leave out if fat-free)
• 2 tablespoons raw honey

Directions:

Fill a large bowl with cold water and pour half of the lemon juice into it. Turn each apple sideways and carefully cut it into slices about ¼ inch thick. Use a small cookie cutter or bottle cap to punch the core out of the center of each apple slice. Place the finished rings immediately into the bowl of lemon water to prevent browning. 

Blend the dates, vanilla bean, ½ cup water, and remaining lemon juice together until a thick, smooth “caramel” forms. 

Remove the apple rings from the water. Spread caramel along the top of each ring and add any desired toppings!

Tip:

If the dates you’re using are dry, try soaking them in warm water for a few minutes prior to blending.
