Guest guest Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Om Namah Shivaya!! There is so much great information out now about the vegetarian diet (raw, ayurvedic and macrobiotic)that we can all benefit from. Nowadays we have an epedemic of OVEREATING and related sicknesses. High quality organic freshly squeezed carrot and apple juice can provide adequate nutrition all by itself for a several days liquid fast and we could all benefit from cleaning out our overloaded systems!!

Guest guest Posted February 4, 2007 Report Share Posted February 4, 2007 I am not sure what it is but I feel so much better when I attempt to eat no meat with a lot of veggies. Especially is I work out but when I play basketball for hours I get a little run down. I guess it's a protien issue..... ckeniley2003 <ckeniley2003 > wrote: Om Namah Shivaya!!
