Hello All
I’ve been on a juice fast for a few weeks now & I’m doing pretty good. At least the big belly & cravings are gone, yipppeee!
I’m walking everyday to tighten up b/c i don’t want to have flabby skin from the weight lost.
I know how vegetarians get their protein with solid foods like LEGUMES, GRAINS, Veggie Burgers, milk & things of that nature. But, If you’re on a juice fast (Fruit & Veggies only) how do I incorporate protein within the fast. I’m extracting the juice from a juicer extractor/wheatgrass machine as opposed to a blender.
I know some will say that Vegetarians get their protein from food, just like anyone else but I’m on a juice fast program and I can’t juice certain foods like:
soy foods, tofu, cheese, nuts, beans, whey & soy protein powders, eggs, etc.
SPIRULINA powder is a great source of protein! It mixes well with my green juices and it cleared my skin,but I wanted to know if you know of any other protein sources I can have for my juice fast program.

I generally well (ish – could do better) and I am a healthy weight. I’ve been eating a bit of crap lately and feel sluggish and starchey so before I go on holiday next week I wanted to have a detox week of eating loads of fruit & veg and taking some kind of natural colon cleanser to flush out some of the rubbish. I don’t want to lose weight (though feeling a bit lighter by the end might be nice!) Is this harmful to me, could is disrupt my natural ‘rhythm’ (I’m already a healthy regular)? And can anyone recommend anything for this?
* I generally EAT well

My husband had CT scan for unrelated reason, they ended up seeing a kidney tumor. That doc gave me referral to a urologist, I called & they gave me appt for 3 weeks from now. Is that normal or should I call others and try for an earlier appt?

As most of us know, detoxing is an amazing way of cleansing the body. I know theres soo many products out there that promise you these great results, but do they work? I’m currently researching bout detoxing systems and how the body benefits from it. I’d like to know whether you’ve tried a product & what your results were before & after using it. Did you have weight gain, over-sweating, body odor, bad skin, or hair loss? What would you say is the best product?

Was the product costly or was it a good bargain?

If you could provide a link to the site of a product, please do so.

I’ve recently had a ultrasound & ct scan that showed that I have both kidney stones and ovarian cysts. There are small cyst in my left ovary and there’s more kidney stones in my left kidney. Is there a link between kidney stones and ovarian cysts? Could something cause both of them?

My dog is a 9 year old Pug and weighs 21 lbs. We just took him to the Vet and we found out he has a few kidney stones. The surgery is ,000 and we can not afford it right now.
Any home remedies or supplements I could give to him would be very helpful.
Thank you so much.
Yeah, I can take care of my dog quite well actually. Which is why i’m trying to do this for him. I’d much rather keep him & take care of him instead of having no money for him or my family. But thanks for your opinion. :)

Since, in India one Doctor was arrested for doing kidney operation and sold them to some Arab & Europeon countries. The duty of the Govt. to fix a rate for this and let them donate the kidney in a proper manner, to save hundreds of their fellow humans.




Technorati Tags: , , , , , , ,




If so, just wondering how it works. There is a person selling them on ebay & the feedback sounds promising. Lot of people said they’ve lost weight on these.
