Hey everyone!
I have a question:
If all you wanted to do every day was juice everything & drink green smoothies (and fruit smoothies) every day would that be healthy? I mean are you getting enough calories and nutrition (i.e. vitamins, minerals, etc.)? Could I sustain this way for a long period of time health wise?
For example could I do this:

LikeItOrNot I can totally agree with you THIS morning!
I tried my first green smoothie this morning and I'm sitting at my desk trying to get it down because it tastes soooo bad. I was running late for work so I had to just throw it together....bunch of either endive or escarole (can't remember), 1 cup rasberries, 1 banana and 2 cups water. When I first blended it, it was a nasty brown color so

I am definitely no expert in this far fetched thinking but I personally do not want to injest or rub something on me that is composed of toxins, bacteria and fat that I am purposely trying to excrete out of me in the first place.
Hope I didn't offend anyone who does do it this is just my honest opinion!

Another newbie here too! I would start out with a juicer and drink as much as you can afford (darn the price tag of produce these days!!) and eat lots of salads with lots of veggies in it. I will post the salad dressing to use that came out of "The Raw Food Detox Diet" book below. I am getting my Vitamix in this Friday so I can start making the smoothies out of "Greens for Life&quo

Hello and welcome Sparky! I'm a newbie too but you have definitely come to the right forum. Everyone here is so helpful, knowledgeable and understanding. Never be afraid to ask a question no matter how simple or silly it may seem.

ALWAYS make sure to check the company's standing with the BBB first. You'd be surprised sometimes to find what you think are excellent companies are actually frauds in disguise!

Hey everyone I hate to ask such a beginner question but what all do you use a food processor for? Could you use it to make soups AND smoothies with it if you don't own a good blender?
THANKS!!!

Could anyone give me a little clarity please??
This may sound like a stupid question but when making smoothies (example Green Smoothies that use kale and banana) do you use a blender and add water OR a juicer??
Trying to figure out WHEN to use a blender and WHEN to use a juicer?
Thanks everyone!

I have ben reading this thread and a question popped in my head...
Why don't you use toothpaste? Don't you need to kill the bacteria and germs in and around your mouth especially in the morning when they have been multipling through the night??

Thank you to EVERYBODY who posts on this question!! You all are so wonderful and knowledgeable!! I appreciate your kindness in responding to my questions; they are all so helpful to me since I'm a beginner : )

Thank you David!! I will definitely go light on the fasting and cleansing. It's been so hard to incorporate a lot of fresh fruits and veggies because of cost but I do LOVE salads with fruit in them. I have gotten to the point where my body naturally despises meat so I end up eating a lot of starchy foods which aren't healthy either. What do you think about me adding Barley Grass and Green Superfo

I have researched this Raw Food lifestyle for over a year now and I am more excited (and convinced) than ever to start BUT I need a little help. I have read that you should do a cleanse before you start the raw food lifestyle but the cleanse involves citrus (i.e. the lemonade Master Cleanse) and if I drink just one orange juice I get a severe uti infection. So should I try it or not? And my REAL
