Hello

 

You asked about certain drinks that promote energy.

 

Before I begin this is quite a long article but

stic with it and you will benefit from knowing this

information and then you can even sahre it with

others. There has been an important discovery

in the field of nutririon that will be useful for

you to be aware of when making any drink. I am

referring to smoothies here as juices normally

consist of, well... juice.

 

To begin with tt's important for you to know what

your bodies main source of energy is; that is

whether you burn fat protein or carbs as your

primary fuel source. Knowing this you can

prepare a drink that is unique to your bodies

matabolism and predominant fuel type.

 

What you do is begin your day with some sweet

fruit perhaps a couple of plums blended with

a nectarine. You can just blend these as they

are or with some water. If after an hour or two

you feel really hungry and your blood sugar is

low then you can be sure that your primary source

of fuel is either protein or fat.

 

You then do the same the next day but this time

blend your fruit with some hemp protein or goji

berries. I eat alot of raw food so tend to go

for things like spirulina, bee pollen hemp and

goji as proteing sources which are all great.

Raw organic eggs are supposed to be great too!

 

If after one or two hours you still feel hungry

and your blood sugar is uneven then you can be

goo to know that your primary fuel source is

fat. Most people burn fat and protein as their

primary fuel sources. Some people are a mix.

 

You would then do the same again but this time

mix your sweet fruit with some fat like avaocados

or macadamia nuts perhaps with hemp oil or flax

oil. If after drinking this you find yourself

still going strong several hours later you can

be good to know that your primary fuel source is

fat.

 

Many people think fat is bad. Not so. Cooked fats

and hydrogenated fats are the ones to be avoided.

If you burn fat as your primary fuel source as I do

you will be surprised by how much you can consume.

When you know what your primary fuel source is you

then play about with it and mix ingredients to get

the right balance for you. I drink lots of raw

chocolate smoothies; these are anti oxidant rich and

are incredibly good! You can begin with simple

ingredients and then expand your choice as you become

acquainted with whats on offer and more importantly

what works for you.

 

You can buy raw cacoa at many of the raw food websites;

it's good to get the nibs or beans, the butter and the

powder. You can use water or coconut milk/water as your

base and some fresh fruit or berries to enhance the taste.

You can even use herbs in your smoothie to give you extra

sustenance.

 

All of this information I've learned through

raw food expert David Wolfe. I recommend you

watch him on you tube; he goes into detail

the ins and outs of raw cacao smoothies which

I feel are the future of nutrition.

 

I hope this was of benefit to you and would

appreciate your feedback. You can if you like

My wife and I have found abundant energy during and after a 10 day fast, either

the vegetable juice fast or the lemonade diet does work very well.

I prefer the vegetable and my wife prefers the lemonade.

After a ten day fast, which we do 3 or 4 times per year, I require half the

amount of sleep. And have energy to bounce off walls.

I do a smoothie from Ann Louise Gittlemans " Fat

Flushers " book, I've tweaked it some. This follows the

40-30-30 plan. 40% calories are low glycemic carbs,

30% good fats, 30% lean protien.

 

Whey protien is better and more easily digested that

soy. Designer American whey is tasty and has least

amounts of additives and artifical ingredients.

 

Maltodextrim is known to cause increase in appetite -

many stevia powders have maltodextrim as a filler

 

 

2 Scoops unsweetened or flavored Whey protien powder

(usually 20 gr protein)

1 cup unsweetened fruit juice such as cranberry or

white grape (Fresh homemade cranberry is best - recipe

below)

1 cup of unsweetened plain yogurt (sweetened and

flavored adds more carbs)

1 whole banana

1 cup frozen or fresh fruit of choice (I like berries

or peaches)

1 pkt of stevia plus

1 TBS flax seed oil

1 TBS ground flax seed or wheat germ

 

Mix in blender add ice if desired

 

Makes 1 blender jar of smoothie

 

Fresh Homemade Natural Cranberry Juice:

1 bag fresh cranberries washed and cleaned

4 cups water

 

Mix together in a sauce pan and simmer until skin pop.

Let cook, drain water into a jar or juice pitcher. You

will probably want to strain the juice as the seeds

are often heavy in the water.

 

To sweeten add 1 to 2 packets of Stevia Plus if

desired.

Do you have the recipe for the veggie fast? I'd be interested in taking a look

at it. Also, did this fast affect your ability to workout or did were you able

to maintain the same level of physical activity?

 

Thx,

 

Marty

I'd also be interested in the recipe. I live and work on a farm, and

need lots of energy to get going in the mornings, and I can't slack

off now that it's milking season again. I've never tried a fast

because I'm worried about passing out while working.

OK since a few people are interested in this fast, I will provide what I think

you need to know.

My guide is a book titled, There is A Cure For Arthritis, by, Paavo O. Airola,

N.D.

I tried his program, and I did get rid of the dreadful and constant pain.

I can tell you from experience that the first few days is hell, headaches,

stomach aches, and muscular pain. However on about the 3rd day your body goes

into autolysis and begins to eat up all the bad cells, and poisons in your body.

If it don't belong there it is consumed.

days 4,5,6,7,8 and really pretty good, you only get about one hunger pang a

day, and you will lose good amounts of weight. (read the book) you can buy it

used from amazon.com for 3 or 4 bucks, or it probably is in your favorite health

food store.

So the plan is like this

1. cup of diet tea

2. warm water enema, I usually skip this, but do it when I feel like it.

3. 2 quarts of water, 2 cups potatoes, 2 cups celery, and 2 cups of your

favorite vegetable, I like to add garlic and cayenne pepper, after it boils for

20 or30 minutes potatoes soft) strain the liquid away from the vegetables. Throw

vegetables away or freeze for soup someday.

4. You can drink this 2 or 3 times per day.

5. You can drink diluted fruit juice if you feel you need it. (you may need it

first few days.

6. I am over 64 years, and I go to the gym 3 times per week, I also go to

karate 2 times per week, if I feel light headed or weak towards the end I train

with less intensity.

7. You probably will require a power nap each day towards the end.

8. I don't know what all the plan will cure, but I know it is good for

arthritis, and it is a great detox plan.

9. I suggest you journal each day, I know you will want to do it again, and

the notes are a good laugh latter on.

10. CAUTION, last year I did faint and did fall down, but it was my own damn

fault, Sunday I ran 6 miles, Monday I did a double exercise class, well on and

on, but you get the point????

Now if you are sitting in a tractor all day plowing fields, I don't know why

you could not fast

Good Luck
