Use Protein Powders

As for protein, you can use one of the many all-natural protein powders found in your local health store or health section of your local supermarket. These powders can be added directly to your juices as suggested on the packaging. You may want to use a blender to blend the powder into the juice.

Be sure to drink eight 8-ounce glasses of purified water along with your juicing during your juice fast, and everyday from now on as a matter of fact. Pure water is vital to aiding your body in releasing toxins. Also, always drink your juices slowly, aiding their digestion and savoring the taste. Savoring taste is very important not only for your palate, but for your weight also. When we do not taste our food and drink properly, we have a tendency to over-consume and gain weight. Sip your juice the same way someone may sip a cocktail; make it an enjoyable experience.

Once you detoxify, you will want to make a complete diet change. Meat should be eliminated from the diet if at all possible, as should all animal products. Despite not being the best food for you in general, livestock is raised in such a way these days that makes it dangerous to eat meat. Diseases such as Mad Cow and E. coli are infecting more and more supplies of meat, poultry, and dairy products. Due to mass processing plants, it is hard to track when an infected animal is added to a mass meat supply of many tons, unlike the days when a cow was taken to a local butcher shop and butchered. Additionally, hormones being used to fatten up livestock in today’s market can seriously alter your body chemistry and cause a number of chronic illnesses over time. If you do not wish to become a vegetarian, substitute with fish on occasion, or purchase organically raised and prepared meats and poultry from your health food store on occasion.

You should incorporate as many organic live foods into your diet as possible, picking a variety of fresh vegetables for salads, as well as continuing a healthy juicing regimen. You may want to employ your blender a bit more in this phase, using it to add ice and even nuts to your protein and fruit shakes to make smoothies. Nuts make a good addition to your diet both in smoothies and whole, adding a good amount of protein to the diet. Be sure to skip desert while you are trying to lose weight, and definitely eliminate all foods made with white sugar and white flour permanently from your diet. To be Continued in the next Post.
