In my first post, I forgot to mention a few goals of juice feasting:
- Drink 4+ quarts of fresh-made fruit and vegetable juice daily
- Drink the juice of a full head of celery each day (celery is high in organic sodium, which is an alkalizing mineral)
- Drink the juice of 2 lbs of leafy greens
- Drink the juice of 1 cucumber daily
- Juice anything else for the rest--veggies, fruits, ginger, etc.
Today I had:
48 oz green juice (kale, spinach, chard, celery, ginger, cucumber, a beet, a hot pepper)
36 oz green and fruit juice (cilantro, parsley, spinach, apple, celery, pineapple)
8 oz grapefruit, lemon, and lime juice with camu camu powder, MSM, and zeolites
A fun detoxification note: I didn't expect that on Day 1 of my juice feast would I have some interesting detox bowel movements. I figured I'd just be eliminating what was already in my colon--solid material. But I was eliminating more liquidly, mucous-coated strands/clumps. It smelled pretty bad--many toxins were released with it--it was good to get it out of me. Meanwhile, I scheduled a colon hydrotherapy session for next week. Figured that would be a good idea at the rate I'm detoxing. :)
But as I always experience with detoxing, I felt much more balanced and energetic after the series of bowel movements.
I felt really good today, even for detoxing. I was a little bit more quiet and introspective than normal and a little weak but I'm familiar enough with cleansing and I just played it low. I let things flow much better and didn't try to make things happen. It was so refreshing. I'm feeling very positive about the world and my personal development right now.
