Watch the flick " fat, sick, and nearly dead"
It's on Netflix
Good juicing motivator

Between that "The beautiful truth" and "Farmaggedon" I was conviced. I am about to go review the thread but for starters.

Blackberries. Anyone getting used to juicing and want to cover up flavors blackberries, kiwis, Red and Green apples I find are great.

I am in week 2. Not the whole fasting bit but definitely a meal or two daily. I find I'm not even hungry. I currently am waiting for that vitality glow to start radiating from my skin and eyes. I already feel lighter even after a couple of days it was like I was not carrying such a weight around all the time.

anyone else throw in herb with all kinds of drinks like me? protein drinks, juice mixes, veggies, other fruits, with a dash of herb..not even cooked or kiefed, just straight weed mixed in.

I've also been known to eat it raw right off the stem. You can just let it sit in your mouth like chew kind of but not a nasty taste it goes into your bloodstream through your saliva. It's an awesome way to ingest weed and get it into your diet. It's good for you, too.

Strain dependent for me some are quite bitter. I use newforming nodetips I defoliate in veg. I figuire if it is one of the first things the animals go for there must be something to it.

Juicing fruits removes the fiber, and just leaves the sugars. If you are going to consume fruits you should just eat fruit. Juicing became popular so that "meat eaters" could intake more fruits, and vegetables. Become a vegetarian/vegan, and you won't "need" to juice.

I'm sort of being forced into that. Past week Dave has taken me off all animal proteins, and last night I slept almost through the whole night, and NO GERD is the best part.

I recently read that people who consume 1 apple/day have a 40% lower level of LDL. My numbers are always inverted without very hard work on my part (eating pretty much nothing but leafy greens and I've GOT to exercise, or my cholesterol #s do not change much), so reading this to me is worth giving it a try.

I've been considering juicing, but it's yet another piece of equipment and I agree with the above, the fiber is a huge part of the benefit to be gained.

Yes

I think most peoples idea of juicing is to give the GI tract a rest from dealing with the lifetime of damage caused from processed foods.

You don't have to waste the fibre from juicing. I mainly make crackers with my pulp. Chia seeds crackers are awesome!

Going without fibre for a while will not kill you. You could even try psyllium and bentonite clay with enemas to really get the pipes cleared out.

Even if you just juice for a week you WILL notice a difference. Juicing is like hash or other concentrates. All the good shit is right there for your body to absorb but it doesn't have to use a lot of energy for digestion.

Leaves more than just sugar. Juicing is popular because you can mix many things into one glass. It's hydroponic feeding...a hydroponic system. Fast and efficient transportation of nutrients....bottom line
