Yes, if you're too alkaline it can mean you're lacking gut flora.
Get some PH strips and test. Don't assume you're alkaline just because you eat a ton of vegetables. Some people still have problems with being acidic regardless of what they eat. I've been fasting for weeks, juicing 1-2lbs of greens a day and my PH is still low.
Watch out with the charts on the internet. A lot of them are var

My question is - How do you people go to the gym?
Since I've been fasting, I can't stand the smell of people there. The guy in front of me was making me nauseaus because he smelled like Frittos. He must've been sweating them out or just ate them or something. I got off the machine after 3 minutes and went to another one. lol

155. Re: Washing Produce
I tried a vegetable soap once and it was terrible. It was way too soapy and it was such a pain washing the suds off the greens. It was like dishsoap. Washing things like carrots, apples and celery are easy because you can scrub them. I've always been concerned with leafy greens. For me it's a turn off that so many people in the stores are touching them..who knows if they just went to the bathroom

Depends on what you're juicing. I'm on a fast (not feast) and probably spend $10-$15 a day.
Wheatgrass Juice....Cheap but a pain.
Apples - $1.99lb since I buy non-organic. They're not in season and the wax is glued to the skin anyways so it's not in the juice. I only use a few a week anyway.
Beets - I just buy the beets/roots not the leaves. Cheaper since Whole Foods has them in a bin

Mother's junk food 'harms child'
Eating a poor diet when pregnant or breastfeeding may cause long-lasting health damage to the child, animal studies suggest.
The offspring of rats fed fatty, processed food had high levels of fat in their bloodstream and around major organs even after adolescence.

It's gone now. I'm not sure it had anything to do with the fast. I've done fasts before and never had anything like this happen. It was some kind of crazy anxiety attack and I took some stupid pill to get rid of it. I told my mother my heart was in my throat and ears when I stood up and she said she's had that heart thing before and it was an anxiety attack. The juices I already drink that mornin

I can take a stupid prescription pill to quicly get rid of it if its anxiety attack but I don't know if it's that. I don't see how id get one of those from what caused it. Seems like something else. like why would starving cause anxiety.

Well if you want to take history into consideration, it probably has to do with the men used to go out and "hunt" or even "farm" while the woman stayed home changing diapers.
Women supposedly can only eat salads anyway because they're always "dieting". Vegetables are rabbit food and girl food.

I know the purpose of fasting is to shut the digestive system down but do supplements need to be "digested"? Or does it depend what kind? I was trying to get greens in but a half a pound of spinach is $4 and juicing the whole thing only gives me about 5oz of juice.

I've been keeping track of what I eat with Fitday and just wondering if the calories are acurate in the JUICE if I put it as food. Like if I juice 2 apples, instead of selecting "Apple Juice" and the ounces it came out to... I just picked 2 medium sized apples. I don't even know how much juice it came out to since I added carrots.

As for weaning off of Armour, some people have done it. But I think it depends on how far gone your thyroid is and how long you've been on Armour or other meds. The longer you're on Thyroid meds, the more your thyroid stops working which is why people keep going "up" in dosages instead of down.

It can't be that simple since SAD'ers "toxin" themselves on a daily basis and don't have their periods everyday to "detox".

I bet the FDA injects salmonella into things just to create scares that way they can pasteurize everything and kill us all and take over the world.

Nothing wrong with 80% but you definitely should drop the canned corn and canned beans. There's nothing nutritious about either. If you want the gabazambo beans, at least to go the health food store and buy it out of the bulk bins and cook it yourself. It would be less...dead and processed. And the sugar in the corn is probably contributing to the hunger. I don't know why..I just know that stuff
