• Drink the sage syrup for 4 continuous days. Do this twice a month.  During those days you’ll have to follow a low-fat diet, with plenty of salads and fiber.  Avoid eating meat, sweets, or processed foods.  Remember, to do this for only four days, and be careful about what you eat. Just eat fruits, vegetables, fiber and sage syrup.
• Drink the sage syrup three times a day.  Once at breakfast and then before your two main meals.
• You should prepare the syrup fresh with each cup. This means you should always drink it when freshly prepared.
• In order to make it, take six sage leaves and add them to a glass of boiling water.  Bring to a boil and then, allow to cool for five minutes.
• Then, add the juice from half of one lemon.
• Mix the sage infusion with the lemon juice.  Mix well.
• Lastly, add two tablespoons of honey.
• Drink when warm, an entire glass as soon as you wake up.  Accompany your breakfast with an apple and a piece of whole wheat toast.
• Before your main meal, prepare another bit of sage syrup.  You could also make a spinach salad with walnuts and beets. This will give you a lot of nutrients and proteins. The sage syrup will help improve your digestion.

• Remember that this is a restrictive diet that you only need to follow for four days and twice a month.
