Guest guest Posted January 5, 2007 Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 Hi nne and all, I vehemently disagree. I bet this study was done on 'store bought' juice. I make my own fresh juice with fruits and veggies from my garden and get the full effect of the vitamins and minerals. I have a vitamix which makes juice of the whole fruit or veggie. I don't throw out the fiber of the item, this machine makes it ALL into liquid. When I drink my carrot juice each morning, it's the whole carrots I'm getting, the liquid and fiber. I don't 'juice' the carrot, I get the whole carrot. This has made a great difference in my health. I find that whenever someone quotes a study you can always find a study which says the opposite. I tried the vitamix years ago because I love V8 juice and carrot juice. I have found over the past 9 years so many benefits to having the whole fruit or veggie. When I drink something from the vitamix, I know exactly what went into it because I grew it. Okay, getting down off my soapbox. Just to keep on topic, I'm the oldie of the group going on 22 years survivorship (a word?). Angel (A.K.A. Mari) mfgershman@...

Guest guest Posted January 5, 2007 Report Share Posted January 5, 2007 Thanks for the clarification. I'm a vita mix *whole*-juicer too and it does make all the difference. Sometimes with these treatments it's all I can do in fact. I felt sad to see the incomplete information. Thanks for speaking up. Whole juice is a wonderful part of the diet for anyone who seeks the benefits of fresh fruits and veg, even nuts and seeds. (And: Home-*extracted* juices are full of sugars it's true, but also vits and min that I'd be quite surprised to find in soda pop! So... not really " no better than " , huh?) e __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 9, 2007 Report Share Posted January 9, 2007 *About Juicing, Sodas and Diet:* ** *Numerous scientific, perr-reviewed studies have proven the link between diet and cancer, time and time again. Apparently, there simply is no question. Read " The China Study, " for the most extensive study ever done on protein consumption and its link to cancer, as well as carb ingestion (good carb only) and its link to reduction or revention of cancer. I have experienced CANCERS HEALED through raw foods jucing and eating...for more than ten years. So I guess your opinion doesn't match my reality. & that's perfectly OK.* ** *When addressing any chronic illness, many factors must be reviewed before dietary changes are made. However, one thing is for certain our bodies needs the GLYCONUTRIENTS, vitamins, minerals, trace elements, enzymes and co-enzymes provided, ALTOGETHER, from living raw foods. Juicing happens to be one of the easiest ways to ingest LOTS OF NUTRIENTS all at once without sitting down to eating 10-20 servings of raw veggies and fruits daily. * ** *A very good book to read is " The Hundred Year Lie, " which is a bit like what you appear to be posting about juicing, sodas and whatever it is your trying to say that makes no scientific or biological sense. * ** *People who have serious issues need not be mislead into further nutrient-depletion. All that does is make money for the medical industry and cause more pain and suffering. Do you know it is estimated that each cancer patient diagnosed today will cost, through insurance and traditional medical intervention, approximately $1.3 million dollars? Too much money being made from illness in this country, IMO. Health and well-being are much better, less expensive, less invasive, less painful and wrenching methods, IMO.* ** *If you would like I will post the 50 or so peer-reviewed nutritional studies that substantiate what my former contribution stated. I think I will post them soon....so no one is mislead on this board. Their battle is WAY TOO IMPORTANT IMO. WAY TOO IMPORTANT. Wisdom not idiocy should be the creed on this forum. * *Anne Kaspar Health and Wellness Consultant O C www.bodybybliss.com bodybybliss@... * Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
