My Raw Food Journey

[Guest guest]

Well, I got the Lower Bowel formula two days ago. It definitely works.

The question is going to be can I get my system working on it's own

after being on the mucusless diet and after a cleanse. The

calcium/magnesium I had been taking was working but then I read that

taking calcium is bad and it causes the body to lose iron. I stopped

taking the calcium and will be making sure to get calcium foods into my

juicer.

I have been on live foods 80% of the time for about a week now. I still

drink the herbal life protein drinks with soy milk and frozen fruit for

breakfast and lunch along with a veggie juice. The veggie juices make me

feel way better and satisfied. Yesterday I was feeling tired right

before dinner and realized I was having some low blood sugar. I ate

several handfuls of almonds and that helped. Then I had my raw chow main

I had made the day before.

I made my husband and son their chicken and red potatoes and steamed

veggies. I really love those red potatoes. I ate a couple pieces when it

first came out of the oven. I had plans of eating more when I sat down

at the table but after eating my chow main I was content and didn't need

the potatoes.

I got the 3 Day cleanse and mucusless diet book and have been reading

it. It's written a little weird since it's from a long time ago. I like

the way he talks about how you can warm wheat berries or whole oats

after soaking them and then eat them warmed to a lower temperature. I

haven't quite grasped how long that process takes. He explains but it's

a long explanation. I have to go over it again. I was reading it before

falling asleep last night. I think if I can eat some of those grains it

will help my hypoglycemia that happens. It doesn't happen as often

because I'm still drinking the protein drinks. I need to be prepared

with a good plan to prevent the low blood sugar when I quit the shakes

unless I can find a live protein source to put in a shake made with

almond milk. I am trying to get to 100% live food but it takes planning

ahead. I have two weeks before my shake mix runs out to figure it out.

My husband doesn't believe in anything I have told him I have learned.

I have to do this on my own with out him understanding. He wants me to

feel better but he doesn't believe all diseases stem from the colon and

the build up it can have. He doesn't put any power at all in live foods.

He thinks it's all hype. Oh well, I know better. After a year of my

eating live food he'll be used to me being this way.

Hi April,

I am excited about your new eating plan. That sounds

great. I do eat pretty good, but I need way more live

foods in my diet. In my yoga book it talks about

eating live foods. My friend, Amber, also works for

this chiropractor who advocates eating live foods, and

juicing, for health. Rhonda, mu old roommate, used to

juice too, and I did a little of that with her, but

I've never had my own juicer. I can't wait to see how

much better you feel. You can't help but feel better

when you eat all that raw, fresh, live food. How

exciting. Keep me posted.

Love

Ps. I should be working. I'm working half day and

then spending the rest of the day with Mom. We've

been having a great time.
