If can sacrafice eating everything for 3 days every 6 months and add a detox for your system the health benefits are astounding..
We eat alot of protein probably more then we are supposed too but if we can do osme things along the way to help negate the bad effects of this then we are on our way to a better us.
People might freak from the lack of protein however it has been shown that this process actually is benefitial in getting our body to want to suck up protein.
On Rising
Take a large glass and add the juice out of 1 fresh lemon and crush a thumbnail size of fresh
ginger. Fill the rest of the glass with room temperature or warm water.

Between starting work and breakfast
Mix Wheat Grass or Barley Grass powder & spring water to make a green drink to alkalize and energize the cells of your body and accelerate the cleansing process. It will taste a little weird to start with but as your bloodstream PH levels drop your taste buds will adjust to the
flavor.

Follow this program as closely as possible for a minimum of 3 days to
really see the results. You can experiment with the vegetable juices throughout the day but just make sure you are not adding too many sweet fruits (ideally none at all) as these add to the sugar (acidic) load in the body which is what we are trying to avoid during this cleanse.
If you get unbearably hungry then munch on a handful of almonds. You may also alternate the veggie juice for lunch with a veggie soup if desired (if you live in a cold climate then this will feel better). You will throughout the detox notice that after the second day your body will be getting used to the routine and will not get such cravings. Most of all stick with it and the results will follow.

6 Days per year.. 3 days per 6 months is not alot. You have 359 days on average to eat everything else you desire...
Why Raw?
Fruits and vegetables are at their most healthful state when they are eaten raw and fresh from
the earth. What most people don’t know is that heat destroys more than 85% of the nutrients
and totally kills off the enzymes. When you eat cooked foods your body must call on its own
"enzyme bank" in order to digest food; which explains why after eating a cooked meal many
people feel heavy, tired, and lacking in energy. The constant depletion of the body's enzymes
by eating primarily cooked foods is the precursor to "dis-ease" and the degenerative conditions
we have come to consider a normal part of getting older. Adding more raw foods to
your diet helps restore vitality and "life-force" energy to the entire system.

What are enzymes?
Enzymes make everything work in our bodies, without them we would be a pile of lifeless atoms.
Enzymes form the catalyst for all the chemical reactions in the body – digestion, immunity
and all other metabolic and re-generative functions. Think of them as the body’s workhorses
helping you to walk, talk, breath, digest food and operate. Chemically they drive the
metabolism to use the nutrients we take in. Biologically, they are our life energy.

The Three categories of enzymes
Metabolic enzymes occur naturally in the body and act as catalysts enabling us to see hear,
feel, move and think. Metabolic Enzymes speed up the chemical reaction within the cells for
detoxification and energy production.
Digestive enzymes are produced by our bodies. They are in charge of breaking down the
food we eat and assimilating all the nutrients. If we eat a diet predominantly of cooked and
processed foods we overload our pancreas to produce more digestive enzymes. If the pancreas
is too weak and no longer able to secrete enzymes, it will rob other organs of life-giving
enzymes. Once this happens our simple daily tasks become difficult.
Food enzymes come from the food we eat. All fruit and vegetables come equipped with their
own enzymes needed to digest them. The foods with the highest food enzymes are mangoes,
papaya’s, banana’s and avocado’s
At birth we are born a full deposit of enzymes. Think of this as your “enzyme bank account” If
we do not make a regular deposits to this account from eating food enzymes that are found
in raw food, and we continue to eat cooked foods that use up our enzyme supply, we become
more susceptible to aging, disease and premature death.
Without the proper enzymes to break down the foods we eat we begin to accumulate undigested
materials in our system. This leads to weight gain, inflammation, stagnation, digestive
disorders and fatigue. Enzyme depletion, lack of energy and disease all go hand in hand.feel, move and think. Metabolic Enzymes speed up the chemical reaction within the cells for
