clip of Anne Osborne...the 'ultimate fruitarian'.

You're welcome. I thought it was interesting that
she stressed Juicy Fruits, without Nuts or Seeds. I'm not sure
she even eats Avocados and Bananas...she didn't mention them
anyway.
I saw another clip where she mentioned her oldest son, at age 14,
decided to include some cooked Vegan food into his diet, after being
raised a Fruitarian from birth....WY

Hard to resist peer pressure at 14. Anne says that although he 'coped' with the introduction of cooked vegan, his health was never quite as good after that as before.

I thought that might be the reason.
It was interesting for me to see Anne drinking juice at a
Juice Bar.
Debbie....I'd like to know if you do any juicing. I've decided
to run my life around 3 juicers and 1 blender....WY

I have thought about doing this as well. For the sake not being too graphic here, does your digestion cease? I guess since you are doing smoothies, there are some eliminations going on...just curious how that works...

On juice only, movements become 'washes' rather
than solids of various degrees of hardness. It's a clean feeling.
Add a Smoothie a day, and things become more 'normal'. At least
that's what I've experienced....WY

Understood;

When I recently did the "Master Cleanse", (lemonade diet) everything became a "wash", so to speak. It was a great feeling, and I felt a "lightness" in my being that I hadn't experienced for a long time.

It is a cleansing fast, and while not totally raw (maple syrup is used) it is highly revered by many health gurus.


I have contemplated going total Fruitarian, but I feel I need more variety than that. Plus, not living in CA where all those awesome fruits are so plentiful, that would be a problem as well.

Thanks Debbie.....very excellent article (as usual).
I'm going on the premise that chewing is a poor way to extract
nutrients from food, 'natural' as it may be. So it's Juicing
and Blending for me....WY
