Green Miracles

Here's a product I recently discovered at Whole Foods. It's called Ultimate Green Miracle Living Powder (Yes, I'll admit it. The name IS a bit cheesy, but at least I didn't pay $50 for it). Anyway, it's good stuff-good tasting (REALLY!) and loaded with nutrients. I bought it primarly to take along with me when I'm away from home and away from my juicer. It's no substitute for raw greens, but it's better than not having access to anything. You just mix 1-3 teaspoons in with water and shake it up. It tastes a bit like a freshly mowed lawn smells-EARTHY! (Or, like grass would taste it you put it in the blender). I'm going to bring some on my upcoming trip and sip away while I'm at the beach. Yummmmy!!!!!

Here's my food log today:

Meal 1

12 Ounces Green Juice
Ingredients: LOTS of assorted kale, dandelion greens, and mustard greens; 3 celery stalks, 2 carrots, 1 oriental radish, 1 beet, slices of ginger.

5 apples, 3 carrots

2 ounces fresh coconut meat
1/4 raw walnuts

My tummy is finally settling down a bit, although I'm still feeling the occasional sharp pain in my abdomen, it seems to moving around and it seems much less frequent. I'm not sure if I've been combining foods incorrectly, if my insides are "fixing" something, or if I've just overwhelmed by body by suddenly eating well. (probably the latter!) At least things are starting to move through on a regular basis.

I am getting a sense that I need to eat more fruit. I'm also starting to suspect that I'm developing a sensativity to certain types of grains-specifically the Ezekiel 4:9 sprouted tortillas I've been eating lately. I did get another compliment on my face/skin today. Apparently I'm starting to "glow" (hopefully not in the dark from all the carrots I'm eating:) Hopefully the rest of my body will start to catch up soon!
