Juice Cleanse/Reboot

Here's a recipe that looks pretty good for a cleansing smoothie!

I'm not sure how to process this.

Isn't there someone close to you that needs a liquid diet at the moment? You should definitely forward her this.

She *is* in Vermont, so maybe she can actually find elk, moose, deer, and bison meat.

Strangely enough I discovered this recipe today when I Googled "smoothie with meat in it" for my friend who has been ill after surgery and is struggling to eat food. She has been drinking lots of smoothies, but is losing weight she doesn't need to lose rapidly.

JUice when homemade in a blender or juicer is very cleansing

Say if your making orange juice , you juice a couple of oranges and add 1 cup of filtered or mineral water and you'll have the best and freshest orange juice

Bottled juices are normally not as good for cleansing

As a professional health researcher you cannot get diabetes from juicing , however you can get diabetes from eating a diet rich in animal proteins, just so you know the truth

Professional researchers should know how to back up statements like these with citations to the primary literature.

So in for studies to show which juices make the best cleanses, complete with list of toxins removed! And studies that conclusively show how we get diabetes.

I just watched Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead last night and I was blown away!! I am not as bad as they were when they started, I'm not sick and not as obese. But I still want to do it they lose massive amounts of weight by doing their fast.

Has anyone here done a juice fast/cleanse/reboot? I really want to know what I am getting into if I do go through with it.

I watched that show a couple of times and I did find it inspirational. However, it is pretty much a long infomercial for juicers. The thing they don't mention is that your fat can only supply so many calories a day, and beyond that point you still lose 'weight' but it isn't fat that's going away. Look at him jogging at the end of the show, he's all flabby and wrinkly, because he dropped tons of muscle in the process as a result of his huge calorie deficit.

You don't need juicing and that crap to lose weight. You can eat all the foods you enjoy at a moderate calorie deficit and get much better results and also not be miserable during the process, and also be already well adjusted to a reasonable healthy lifestyle by the time you've gotten there.

There is a misunderstanding here. They are not saying that they are a professional health researcher. They are saying that if you are one, you can't get diabetes from juicing. Sounds about right.

if this is the quality of the research going on, I weep for medical science.

As the wife of an English teacher, this made me giggle.

Makes more sense that way! Guess I got mine from animal protein then.
