So I actually gave this a try...2x so far.

It has been quite unbelievable as to what "exited" from my body...the therapist was able to see a lot of old and toxic stuff getting cleared up -- I saw it too

I feel a little better but I have another session booked to clear the rest of it...

any other people who tried this and liked the result? It wasn't really fun or pleasant but I was desperate to try anything to help relieve my horrendous GI system/symptoms!

Careful, you never know what might have been sprayed on them...

Whenever I use hemp protein I find it tastes sort of harsh/bitter or something.

Is that how it tastes or do I have crummy hemp?

I only like the black kale...well, it's dark green, but called "black" and it's also called Lacinato kale. It's not as chewy and hay-like as the green or purple kale

Does anyone have this?

Or is anyone really into juicers/juicing and can evaluate this product? I just want to make carrot juice, apple juice, ginger, etc...

This looks good to me, but can anyone comment?

You're a very good looking fruitarian! Nice face; nice muscles...and personality too of course

Great abs, by the way.

Those 'fake meats' can be as much carb as protein and have a lot of wheat gluten in them; f you're sensitive to that it might be an issue.

What about soy or hemp or pea protein powder, after a workout?

maple syrup is cooked (boiled). From the tree, straight up, it would be sap

seedless apple? Waaaah?

If you don't take in carbs, your body will use the protein as an energy source, no? However it's just a pricy form of energy since carbs are cheaper and more readily used, from what I understand.

bull shit

This was probably stated (i forget) but excess protein is just a source of very expensive carbs.

Carrot juice IS great but I always feel kind of wasteful about juicing them and dumping the pulp. Is it worth finding a recipe to use the carrot pulp or have most of the nutrients already been squeezed out into the juice anyway?

 

And if not, does anyone have any raw recipes for the pulp? The ones I have found so far are for cooked recipes, soups and bread and stuff.

A company near me makes dehydrated crackers with the pulp (beets, carrots, etc. mixed with flax and things. They're yummy.)

Isn't Ethiopian injera typically made with teff flour (not wheat)?

Don't our bodies have their own cleansing mechanisms? Do we really need to force extra stuff in there when our liver does its job every day?

From what I've seen, it is pretty easy to grow & juice wheatgrass &/or barleygrass yourself. If ya did that and/or watched your grass being cut & juiced, then ya could be certain that it was seed-free. Since having the freshly grown & juiced grass is most ideal anyway, maybe this is the best option to explore.

Some day I will buy a juicer!

correct but you never know it was in there. And labels aren't always accurate...the margin of error is risky for those who can't consume this stuff.

Actually, celiac.com places these on the 'foods to avoid list' because they could possibly contain seeds.

Sounds good. I read the same on the Internet...I assume that barley grass is the same - not gluten containing like the grain barley?

Is wheatgrass actually wheat?

This sounds stupid but I'm not sure.

If I am intolerant to wheat and gluten, can I eat wheatgrass? Or more importantly the new Vega Smoothie Infusion (which I think has that).

been there, done that & got the t-shirt. I have been through all the tests (colonoscopy is a walk in the park compared to one of them...) and did a food diary in conjunction with an allergist, etc.

I'm so looking forward to ending this 10-yr GI crap from hell, some day. Oh, to wake up and not spend inordinate hours in a specific room

I have mild Ulcerative Colitis so I have quite a few digestive problems as well and know what you are going through.

 

Have you been tested for Inflammatory Bowel Disease (such as colitis or crohn's).

 

Here's a link to a raw foodist who claims to have cured his IBD with raw foods: http://www.paulnison.com/paulsbooks.htm

 

It's a good idea to keep a detailed food log. it may help pin point some of your food issues.

Thanks. You really are a beast yourself!

I can't see the video from work...but have a question anyway.

How do I progress to a full roll out on my toes. I can only go about 3/4 of the way before I just would collapse if I went any further?

Shouldn't these be called "fat" nut balls

but my oh my they look yummy.
