Staying Focused

Up early this a.m., my new Jack Lalanne juicer arrived on Friday. I have to say, "it works great"! Very quiet and seems pretty powerful. 

I made a juice drink yesterday of:

All ingredients were organic.  Make sure to wash them well, and peel the red beet.

1 small red beet
6 carrots
1 small apple
4 handfuls of spinach

It tasted really good! Very smooth!
This morning, Sunday, I made juice again... went to the Farmer's Market on Saturday and got some beet greens, along with turnip greens and some huge carrots. I used the greens, along with a red beet, a small apple and 3 of the huge carrots. 

Similar to yesterday's recipe; except I changed out the type of greens I added. Again, it was delicious!

A book that I used to refer to for juicing recipes, was called Juicing for Life, by Cherie Calbom. Lost track of the book... so I ordered a used copy on Amazon.com Very inexpensive, basically just paid for the shipping.

This is a great book. Loaded with lots of healthful, helpful information, And lots of reasons why juicing is a  good way to start regaining your health.

Thinking that this is too drastic a change for you in your diet! And much too hard of a lifestyle change to follow. Then you could transition slowly, using Smoothies to reform your diet. They are delicious! They are made from whole fruits and vegetables in your Blender. Cherie Calbom has written a book called "The Ultimate Smoothie Book" it has over 100 recipes for making delicious, healthful smoothies.

If you would like to transition to a "Vegan" diet, here is an easy way to get started with this great recipe book. Real, terrific recipes that you can make yourself at home.  "The Kind Diet" by Alicia Silverston

Staying on the topic of regaining health.

If you have read any of my story on my website http://www.newfacesofparkinsons.com/ you will remember that I worked at the Southwest Naturopathic Medical Center in Scottsdale, as the front office manager for a few years. Dr. Walter Crinnion, N.D. was one of my Physicians. He has writtten a book "Clean, Green and Lean" get rid of the toxins that make you fat. and has a website (link is to food pollution) (site has other tremendous information that can change your life) Dr. Walter Crinnion/food pollution with critically important information about foods you should definitely not eat and what foods you should eat, only if their organic.  I highly recommend taking a look at this site. It could save your life!

Did you know that in 2009 the media was reporting that our 42nd President, Bill Clinton had symptoms of Parkinson's Disease? As well as Heart Disease. See the story!  Clinton has shaking hands . If you see pictures of Bill Clinton now in 2011, he looks slimmer and healthier. Why? He became a Vegan! Bill Clinton goes "Vegan" he went "vegan" after researching how eating a plant based diet can heal your body.  I think that says it all.... no coincedence here.  Just the facts! Pretty smart guy! Yep, I would say so!
