The 1 orange per hour can not be drank wrongly in my opinion, but your right, slow down and chew each mouth full ansd you do the best. When very ill, juice is given 1 tsp. at a time.
If you live in the city, the city water bath is your only option and adding herbal tea to the water should be a great aid.
In the city is like living in the barn, the master (farmer) has complete daily control over what is consumed, etc. Escape when you can or avoid the farmer when you can!
