Cut into small pieces, put it in a pot and pour in clean water. Boil for 10 minutes, cool, filter and pour into a glass bottle and keep in the refrigerator.Drink one glass daily and you will notice you feel better as excess salt leaves your kidney by urination.Please consult your doctor if you are ill or on any medication.Leave a Reply
