Notes
Why Spleen Cocktail or Ogg Juice?
When the Spleen has to work extra hard (using more Qi than it produces) to transform food, it becomes tired. This leads to sluggish digestion, resulting in poor circulation, nutrient absorption, and energy/blood production. This often leads to:
Orange Juice: Packed with vitamin C, potassium, and antioxidants.
- Chronic bloating
- Indigestion (feeling like food “just sits” there)
- Loose stools
- Poor appetite
- Muscle weakness and soreness
- Chronic fatigue
- Brain fog
- Nutrient deficiencies
- A pale tongue with teeth marks on the edges
- Blood Deficiency (anemia)
- Accumulation of Dampness (inflammation)
- Negative effects on the mind and spirit
Benefits of Combining Raw Egg and Orange Juice
1. Protein and Vitamin Boost: The protein in raw eggs complements the vitamin C in orange juice, aiding in muscle repair and boosting the immune system. 2. Enhanced Absorption: Vitamin C from the orange juice enhances the body’s ability to absorb iron from the egg. 3. Natural Energy Source: This combo provides a quick, natural energy boost, perfect for breakfast or pre-workout.How to Make Raw Egg Orange Juice
