I think you sent the first one as I was preparing for surgery and then I totally missed the other. Did u get a ninja? I don't have one, I have a cuisinart food processor, oster blender (amazingly it works great) and a juicer. I like to take up as much space in my kitchen as possible.
one day hopefully I'll get a vitamix!
As far as fruit/veggie combos go, from what I know that is true, not to mix, except certain things like green apples work with greens and oranges and carrots are supposedly a good combo, but I've never tried.
I was so inspired by my journey, that I am now on my way to becoming a licensed holistic health practitioner, certified clinical nutritionist and certified master herbalist. I'd like to help educate the masses on natural medicine and detoxing the environment.
Let Me know if you have any questions.

Last year, I read all the juicing books I could; many said to avoid fruit-veggie combinations, but not one explained why. The Gerson folks teach this in their seminars, while offering the obvious exceptions. That credibility and 50 year legacy of learning/research/healing was good enough for me.
I took this picture late last year of my beet/green-carrot-ginger juice, as I sat in my living room. The reflections from a mirror in the room accentuated the magic and health in healing foods. No touch-ups. Let your food be your medicine!
I look forward to juicing with you some day. Maybe I can be your muay thai punching bag. I may occasionally move to make it remotely interesting...  |
