Guest guest Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 Hello everyone. This is my first post. I have been wanting to go 80-90% raw for quite sometime, but I know that there is an adjustment period lasting the first few days. From what I understand, this may include headaches, nausea, intestinal disturbance, flu like symptoms, etc. Up til now, that meant I couldn't try it, because of the kind of job I held (manual labor). That has since changed, and this is my first raw day. This is going to be kind of weird perhaps, as I hate the taste of most fruits and vegetables. Apples, bananas, and seedless grapes go down well, but everything else I have to juice. (Juice because I can hold my nose while I drink it. Can't do that while eating, as it would take too long to finish eating the food.) Steaming veggies doesn't make them taste any better to me. If I had to choose between eating foods that tasted bad to me, and starving to death...well, I would be extra glad that I'm a Christian. I just can't help gagging on nasty tasting stuff. *shrug* I have some questions for those experienced among you. I plan to drink white tea. Also, I will be drinking one glass daily of Purity's Triple Greens (powdered greens drink). Are either of these things counter-productive on a high raw diet? Also, is it unhealthy to get most (not all)of your vegetables and fruits in juice, provided it's raw and fresh from the juicer? Thanks guys. I am happy to be here. Good day!
