Switching to Raw food diet, sore throat coming on, and can I eat the orange peel

[Guest guest]

I am just juicing everything now, and the whole orange, and mango with skins on,

I am getting a sore throat, after 4 days of major juicing with beets, greens,

carrots, celery, oranges, mangos, strawb. I am adding in Kelp, geletin,

glucosomane, and mangosteen, as well as aloe vera and trace minerals in my

juicing.

I am now getting a sore throat, and burping up some. Also, my eyes are watering

more than normal.

Am I going at this too strong? Is it ok to juice the whole orange, including

the peels too? It tastes somewhat bitter, but I thought it was ok.

Is this a detox symptom?

Thank you in advance for your answers.

If you have just recently switched to Raw, I would say that it is probably

detox.... This was awful for me too... it seemed like my detox symptoms went

backwards, which they say is normal... my asthma got worse before it got

better... once I knew what was going on, I was better able to except it was my

body doing what it was supposed to be doing... I would encourage you to drink

lots and lots of water... also might consider getting a massage once a week if

you can... this will help push the toxins out of you... good luck and best

wishes, it won't be long and you will start noticing a huge difference..

Kindly,

from among the most delicious vegetables, mostly carrots, celery, and no fruits,

with the possible exception of apples. To go much beyond that point, is to make

juicing a fad, to deny your dental structures and oral secretions, and body, the

essential function of thorough chewing of whole foods. If it were me, I'd take

all those supplements, " kelp, gelatin, etc., " the same way; distributed,

thoughtfully, through the day, and taken in association, once more, with whole

foods.
