Guest guest Posted December 29, 2007 Report Posted December 29, 2007 Hi again! The Hallelujah Diet uses a lot of carrot juice, other juices, and fresh fruit and vegetables, so when I read that you used those, I just wondered if you were on that program. It's a vegan program and along with the juice, fruit and veg, it also uses Barley grass powder. It's mostly a raw food program, with only 15% or so of cooked foods. I have to say that you cut out meat for some very important reasons! That's really wonderful. I'm an ex-vegetarian, trying to get back on the bandwagon in 2008. When I was veg, back in the 90's, I felt fabulous and had lots of energy. Unfortunately I fell off the turnip wagon, and have suffered for it since. I look forward to getting back on the path to health. What is " monk meat " ? Is that seitan or something similar? Looking forward to hearing more from you!

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2007 Report Posted December 29, 2007 Most doctors here in the US (Don't know where you are) don't get a whole lot of training in nutrition and tend to be skeptical about vegetarianism. You can eat eggs and drink milk and be considered a vegetarian (what they call Ovo-Lacto Vegetarian.) However " vegans " don't do eggs, milk, honey, and ethical vegans don't wear leather or fur.

Hee Hee, my husband calls it " Swamp Juice " and won't even try it. The first time I had it, it was gross, but it grew on me, and I came to like it. It's very nutritious.

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 spelling error........Its like the mornings star farms or boga burger meat alternatives I was semi veg a few years back and my doctor told me I had to eat meat or I would die ..severe b12 definecey ...turns out he was a nut. My B12 is stable again and I give myself shots. I gained 20 pounds and Gerd. So I really don't know if I would call myself a veg. I consume free range eggs and milk.I do already feel a ton better. catherineleslie1 wrote: Hi again!

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2007 Report Posted December 30, 2007 Grass powder sounds gross...no offense to anyone.. I like raw fruit and some raw veggies for salad. Hats to those who can consume that much veggies in the natural form.
