Too many items in the smoothies. My rule is at most 3 items.
Another point is that plants and fruits do not necessaryly want to be eaten (more true for some plants), they have anti-nutrients to protective themselves that is why regular fasting is so important.

The tasted has gone thru transformation and need to be cured. Years of spices and pepper and salt, the poor taste is no longer what it was supposed to be. You need to gradually bring it back to life before it can lead your eating life again.

Recently while driving to work, I listen to some research on NPR radio.
Children were put into a room with foods without parental supervision, the children were all coming from families with strong parental supervision on the foods they HAD to eat even when they did not want to. The researchers found that children when left to themselves will gravitate towards the food their body was missing the

That analogy doesn't really hold up, i know people with tip top digestions who have lived solely on junk food
We are talking about nutrients absorption not necessarly going to the bathroom.
Junk food will block, reduce nutrient abosorption setting the body into a viral, mucus formning state.

If we take the anology of the car, it is not the quality of the gas that is the problem, it is the engine, the engine needs to be tuned up regularly, you can spend your money on putting super gas in it, it wont go any faster.
It is not the food, it is not the soil, it is the body, the digestive system which has been weakened by years of abuse, drinking milk, eating cooked carbohydrate, burgers

The problem is that people think their physical make is so special, so unique in nature, they need extra help to get it healthy, they need b12 injections, 8 glasses of water a day, E3 Live, super food powders. Everything is in the raw food. Nutrition is simple. Less is better.

Humans and animals pretty much eat the same foods except that we have denatured ours thru cooking. Animal behaviour provide the natural state we have lost, we have nowhere else to go in looking back. Millions of dollars are spent by scientists to study animal behavour so they can better understand our own. Rawfoodists use the we-are-not-animals argument to support their unhealthy eating habits.

The requirements that humans should drink 8 glasses of water a day has no scientific basis. What is important is drinking fluid which could just be juices or eating high water content foods.

Animals in the wilds can go for 2 or 3 days without drinking water, they get the water from the foods they eat. They search for water once or twice a week. How often do we humans drink PER DAY?
Most of the water we need should come from the food we eat.

Eating is drinking. I do not eat foods that are not at least 80 percent water content. If you eat dried foods, the body borrows water from the cells, process the food, and then later when you drink, the body has to process the water and redistribute it, that is more work.
I do drink simple water, but not as much, my body has enough organic water already. Animals in the wild feeding on raw foods

powerlifer my dear raw friend, water is not just water.
The reason why beans, dried grains are not good foods is that they have lost there organic water content during the drying process.
Eating them dried and drink water afterward to compensate will never equal the health benefits of eating them in thier original raw state.
We are 80 percent water at a mininum. That is why dried powder superf

RawPracticalist
dehydrated powders have very poor nutritional values, for one thing they do not have the organic water we have in natural fresh produce, another is that being concentrated is the problem, you are overloading your system with nutrients of one type. Nutrition is not complicated.

RawPracticalist
Most people are so focused on the nutrients, the most important thing is getting the body to assimilate the nutrients, our local ordinary foods have enough nutrients, we are actually overloaded with nutrients, the problem is that they are not getting assimilated, so here less is actually better, simple food, avoid mixing to many food items, eat less, fast regulary, give your system a rest.

You are missing the title of the thread " Crying Onion Tears: do we really need to be worried about onions?"
The medicinal properties of these "foods" are more dominant than their nutritional properties, why do you think people cry eating garlic or onions, they are medicine, you decide to suffer for a while to cure a condition.

Garlics and Onions are only good to move the body from the state of disequilibrium to equilibrium, once you have achieved the natural state, should I say re-establish the natural state, they have no place in the diet.
