RE: Article: What's the deal with juicing?/The Facts

[Guest guest]

I realize there are people who teach these things, and you are surely free

to believe whatever you wish to believe. But the notion that juicing

supersedes eating whole foods really is nonsense. The notion that removing

nearly 100% of the fiber, as opposed to literally 100%, matters not. Once

you fractionate the food, it loses much value. Now, to be sure, eating a

liquid diet of juiced fruits and/or vegetables is still superior, far

superior, to eating what most people eat. But the notion that you can

improve upon Nature's design in this way is just not so.

 

Juicing is not " positively altering food " , it is merely altering food. To

believe otherwise is to say that you have improved upon Nature's design by

pulverizing the food and discarding a large portion of it.

 

Further, juicing is not essential. Nothing _in particular_ is essential.

No form of eating reduces nonfood-induced stress. Only dealing with the

cause(s) of the stress addresses the stress.

 

There are no magic bullets. And your notion of eating more is also not true,

not at all, in fact. Those of us who live (almost) entirely on fruits and

greens consume more fruits than most people can imagine, juicers included.

But we consume these as whole foods, we chew our foods and benefit greatly

from doing so, we digest at the speed we are designed to digest and not at

the sped at which water flows, and so forth.

Elchanan,

 

I have personally seen colon/prostate/blood cancers reversed with the help of

juicing. The point of juicing is to easily absorb the nutrients without having

to digest the fiber to give the body a rest and let the liver do its job to rid

the body of stored toxins. Juicing is used also instead of taking vitamins in

a capsule form from depleated soils.

Thank god you are in such a healthy state you could not even emagine why

someone would do it, everyone should be so lucky.

 

Many blessings

Catherine
