Guest guest Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 lane lynn Wednesday, April 27, 2005 4:49 AM Re: [Raw Food] My Introduction Dear Leslie and all, I solved this problem with smoothies. Years ago I went on a 30 day fast, under supervision and remained raw for a year and a half, or so as best I can remember. I went off because I could not find enough to eat, nor enough hours in the day to eat it. I do not have that problem now. I start each day with a huge smoothie. You wouldn't think I could consume that much but I do. It fills the whole blender right to the top, and it is thick, not all water. it has nuts (almonds), dates bananas berries kale etc. I love it. If ever I can't think what to eat for another meal, I go for more smoothies. I order dates by the carton full, and keep five or six hands of bananas around at all times. Good luck to you, and welcome. Lane _____ Great, just two things: 1. Chew your smoothies. 2. Try dropping the nuts, the food combination is working against, not for you.

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 > Er. whaddya mean? " chew " my smoothie? Thanks Lane HI Lane! Chewing your smoothie means to treat it as a solid in your mouth, masticate it, swish it around, and give the digestive process a chance to start by giving the ptyalin, or salivary amylase, whick is secreted by the parotid glands and is present in saliva, a chance to commence the digestion of starches and dextrins in the mouth.. reminds me of an old adage, which means the same thing: " eat your liquids, and drink you solids....
