Re: Fwd: Digestive Wellness

I have the Pomegranate Concentrate and the ingredients list as:

Pure Pomegranate Juice Concentrate, and that's all.

It does seem sweeter. Don't have to use saccharine in it at all and it has

a Kool-Aid type flavor.

Kathy,

Pure juice,extracted wih a juicer,is even sweeter than the fresh

pomegranade. Go buy a pomegranade and then juice it with a juicer. Do

not use a blender ,nor a Vitamix. You will see that the juice is so

much sweeter.

I called DW and talked with the owner and she reassured me that the

juices are pure. Her husband knows the owner of the company that make

the concentrates,they went to school together. She said that the owner

of the company that make the concentrates is a very honest and

religeous man.

I am happy to see that everyone is being very careful about ready made

products. I completely trust Digestive Wellness,but that is my

personal decision. I will soon explain why.

Hi Mimi & Kathy,

Although the pomegranate " sounds " okay there is another thing to

think about. Kathy has been having trouble with Abby. What I am

suggesting is that she cuts it out and gradually reintroduces things

to see what is causing the trouble.

To my knowledge, pomegranate isn't something that Elaine

recommends. She recommends grape juice and local apple cider* for

the intro diet. Beyond that she gives the okay to orange juice once

d clears up, tomato juice, pineapple juice*.

She has tested these juices and they are appropriate as per BTVC for

various progressions along the road to healing.

Pomegranate juice (as a type of juice) isn't listed among the legal

juices in BTVC. I have no idea to it's nutritional breakdown, what

kinds of natural sugars it has and if they are appropriate for those

with gut troubles. It may be fine, but then again it might not be.

As we have said to others when they decide to use products that are

questionable. Please report this when writing to the list and

please consider discontinuing that item(s) if there is some trouble.

* Welch's pure grape juice (from concentrate)

Tropicana Orange juice (Pure premium no additives)

Tomato juice (Heinz and 's)

Pineapple juice (Dole)

Hi Carol and Mimi,

I know this was meant for off-list but I'll respond here. We are

all just looking out for these kids. Are goals are all the same -

that these children get better. If some are fine with some products

then great. But when they are having trouble with some products we

need to look closer at what they are having and consider removing

them. All of us are individuals and foods that may seem as if they

would be illegal are not necessarily suitable for all.

Hi ,

I never tried juicing pomegranades but I was told that you can take

the red part and put the whole thing thru the juicer and it will

extract the juice and remove the seed. The person who told me that

used the Juiceman 2 juicer.

I hope this helps,Mimi
