Halo,

Check out the Blendtec Blenders, I make a ton of green smoothies and its quick and delicious. I throw in Spinach, fruits, and yogurt and it all comes out buttery smooth with no chunks. If it tastes bland I add either some honey, ice cream or protein powder. If I have company Vanilla Vodka is always nice!

Today I have drunk carrot juice.It was delicious and full of taste.I added some oranges in it.
I use carrot juice as treatment of my eyesight.It is really effective for eye sight.

Heres My green smoothie blend: Spinach, vanilla yogurt, Protein Powder, fruits and a banana, Liquid Vitamins and Fish oil, Crystal light for taste. Vanilla Vodka on the weekends. Sounds gross but tastes awesome!

I will try the Carrot, Apple and Ginger as it sounds really good.

Juicing rocks! So glad to hear you're enjoying it so much. I'm a lemon head but my husband is the fruity - adding oranges and apples to sweeten his. We burn through carrots, spinach and cucumbers. Dark leafy greens like kale or swiss chard or beet greens...oh and you said you thought beets were earthy! That's exactly how we describe it, lol, but so sweet too. My husband has actually gotten into a habit of juicing and then adding the juice into the vitamix with his bananas/yogurts/avocados/protein powders etc, you know, the stuff that just should not be put in a centrifugal or auger juicer ^-^ Long fasts are something that I personally worked up to. I think it took me time to wrap my head around how to deal with other people's reactions and how I could explain myself. (sad that we should have to...mostly to quell fears) So many people equate fasting with starvation and it's not! If it's done properly! Ah, the stigmatisms of what is socially acceptable...

I hope you're still enjoying this journey...but be careful, lol, you may never want to go back! Once your body gets a hankering for the goodness, it won't settle for less...if you try, it will tell you so!

PS
Yes! Ginger is great...and if you like lemon-y, cayenne pepper is a really punchy addition too!

How long was your longest fast nutrix? I can never pass month! This time I only got around to a week and switched over to eating just raw fruits and vegetables.

My new favorite thing to juice is yicama. It has the consistency of an Unripe pear and the taste of pear crossed with root flavor. It also holds a lot of juice. They're a little hard to find. I just started juicing and I am hooked. I can't wait for the farmers markets and my garden to come to life. Right now everything is white and boy am I ready for spring.

Ah me too! I love juicing. I especially love mango, melon, and orange with some milk and sugar. Definitely a blast!
