Guest guest Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 Elaine, I don't think there's any tasty way of incorporating maca into one's diet, although I find it a lot less disagreeable if diluted with enough water, which is what I do. I whisk my daily dose with some water, hold my breath, toss, and chase with more water. I've tasted worse stuff but it's not what I'd call agreeable and I'd rather just get it over with than possibly mess up the taste of something that's otherwise delightful. Same goes for aloe vera (which I find good for my very occasional bouts of heartburn), except I don't dilute it. I soak my gojis and just blend them into whatever smoothies I think their taste will complement; one of my faves is this one, which I tweak by adding pollen and substituting buttermilk powder for the powdered milk: http://www.ehow.com/how_4095_mix-virgin-mary.html . I keep super ripe, quartered frozen bananas on hand at all times for smoothies and also very ripe cantaloupe quarters for this particular one (I also sweeten it with blue agave nectar rather than honey--tastes better with this recipe). I think tweaking sums it up in a nutshell--use recipes you already like and imagine how they'd taste with various add-ins. If you think your results will be improved (or not ruined), go for it. FWIW, I pretty much add a teaspoon of pollen to all of my smoothies. I think it's good stuff. Welcome to the list! New to group  Hello all..I just joined this group...Have made a Vita Mix machine for a few years but have not used it extensively. Recently became interested in superfoods/raw foods and it seems that the Vitamix is the ideal tool. I have purchased maca, hemp seed, coconut oil, coconut water, aloe vera juice, spirulina, bee pollen, cacao and goji berries. Any suggestions on putting these together in a tasty fashion? Also, is the $50 Vitamix cookbook worth the money? Perhaps I can find a better value right here within this group. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 Vita-Cost ROCKS! I'm not crazy about Navitas maca (which is what I'm using up at this point); I haven't tried this one yet but it'll be my next maca purchase: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem & item=130406073661 . I would only use gelatinized maca and even so, it's my understanding that those using it should make sure that their intake of dietary iodine is sufficient (supposedly much more of an issue for those using raw maca). Larry, here are a few raw foods vendors who carry " superfoods " ; I haven't ordered from either but their sites are worth perusing: http://www.znaturalfoods.com/ , http://www.naturalzing.com/index.htm . There are others as well but these two seem to have a good selection (I especially found Z Natural's selection of protein powders to be interesting). Elaine, are you familiar with Spirulina Pacifica?

Guest guest Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010  Elaine--I think the maca is nasty stuff!! LOL I ruined a couple of good smoothies!! I tried it s way---my kids thought all the gagging was funny (I didn't!!). I am back to mixing it in my coffee--I can tolerate it this way. I mix it in the second cup---its.not.to.bad! FWIW--the stuff causes me to break-out. Chest and shoulders mostly--can't tell if its helping the energy.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 Thanks, , for your warm welcome. The bean idea is a good one, though the problem was that the soup didn't get hot enough. Since I now know it won't hurt the equipment, I might try blending the soup a little longer or just making a bit more soup, say two days' supply.

Guest guest Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 Thanks, . That makes sense. I think I'll try the next soup the same portion size but I'll just nuke the milk a bit before I add it to the Vitamix.

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Welcome Gadel! The Vitamix can seem intimidating at first, but once you get going with it, you will wonder why you waited! I would start by just adding some of Lea Ann's " magic veggies " in to those fruit smoothies, try an easy soup recipe, and keep on going! You will love this group - it will inspire you to enjoy and get lots of use out of your wonderful machine. On Wed, Sep 21, 2011 at 3:07 PM, gadel_m <ckm1977@...> wrote: Hi everyone!

I would like to use my imagination more when making green smoothies and fruit smoothies its trial and error.One of my favorite recipes from the group is how to make coconut butter with coconut flakes I have not tried it yet but that most definitely is on the list next.

Guest guest Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Hello everyone, I am a mom of three grown kids, all fully vaccinated, but I discovered the dangers of vaccines when my youngest daughter had some issues after her series of three Gardisil shots. I think I already had subtle signs, but I didn't know them for what they were. After her shots, she started getting recurring sinus infections, which lead to multiple rounds of antibiotics. Soon after that she became severly depressed and suicidal. We tried the traditional route for a couple of years, but she continued to get worse. Long story short, we fell down a rabbit hole and began learning about biomedical treatments, vitamin therapy, homeopathy, etc. Through some assortment of all, she is now very close to what I would call recovered. She will probably always have some issues, but we work through those homeopatically, and every day she gets stronger. I also joined the group b/c we learned we're going to be grandparents for the first time (my middle child), and I'm hoping that I can obtain info to convince my daughter to not vaccinate her child. She doesn't buy any of these, even after seeing what her sister went through. Thanks, and nice to 'meet' everyone ez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 You do the best you can and at least you woke up!! You have 9 months of reading and showing her stuff. I’d start with the conflicts of interest, with how much money they make, with how many labs get fined, with how many violations they have, with the crap that is in a vaccine, with how many we got as kids and with how many your future grandchild will be expected to have. Then go on from there. If she’s closed to it all, maybe you can work on a delay approach. What new baby fresh from the womb needs a vaccine? They don’t have fully developed immune systems yet. It’s tough. All you can do is present the info. I worry every day now that I have a 19 y.o. that she’ll go get some vaccines. Nita, homeschooling mompreneur to 8 kids and an online store!

Guest guest Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Welcome to the group! It can take some time to understand why vaccines don't work and only make kids sick. For now, here is a good point to not vaccinate babies and hopefully give some time for her to understand that vaccines are all consequence and no benefit. Check out this article: http://gaetacommunications.com/site/?p=1092 Here is a quote from it: "...it is pointless to administer drugs intended to stimulate antibody production to babies who are too young to produce antibodies. Infants in their first year mostly depend on generalized, non-specific immunity, including (hopefully) immunoglobulins from breast milk, to protect their young bodies from infection. They do not produce antibodies of their own until about age one. Despite this basic fact, the medical establishment insists administering a total of 19 shots, containing 24 vaccines, to infants on the 2, 4 and 6 month pediatric visits (Source: cdc.gov). Somehow, the basic facts of human physiology and development do not apply to vaccines."

I think I already had subtle signs, but I didn't know them for what they were. After her shots, she started getting recurring sinus infections, which lead to multiple rounds of antibiotics. Soon after that she became severly depressed and suicidal. We tried the traditional route for a couple of years, but she continued to get worse. Long story short, we fell down a rabbit hole and began learning about biomedical treatments, vitamin therapy, homeopathy, etc. Through some assortment of all, she is now very close to what I would call recovered. She will probably always have some issues, but we work through those homeopatically, and every day she gets stronger.I also joined the group b/c we learned we're going to be grandparents for the first time (my middle child), and I'm hoping that I can obtain info to convince my daughter to not vaccinate her child.

Guest guest Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Good point, and makes you wonder: what else are they wrong about? Are they wrong when they dismiss vaccine reactions as rare? Are they wrong when they tell you vaccines are mandatory for school, or that unvaccinated people put others at risk, or that a certain percentage of vaccinated people are needed for "herd immunity," or that there is no connection between vaccines and SIDS or autism, or that the HPV vaccine will prevent cervical cancer, or that seizures are normal in vaccinated children? And if they are wrong, how can you trust them when they tell you that vaccines work at all for anyone?

Guest guest Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 I have a friend online on FB advocating why she vaccinates. I’m going to point this out.
