I dont know what it is,but it sounds like one of those "products" that claim to be the cure all for everything. If that is so,I will tell you that NOTHING substitutes for eating the right foods on a consistent basis. usually those gimiks are used because it feeds on people will to eat unhealthy foods,and at the same time take vitamin supplements to make them THINK they are healthy.

theoriginalgreatone · #**388** 06-28-2010, 08:17 PM

yeah, bc my moms sister & niece is ampin it up, now she talking about trying it, so i wanna know how to discourage her from it unless it's worth it.

ionblast i'm JUST now getting up on Falafel after all these years. Still haven't had it to this day. Planning on trying it out this weekend.

I hope you liked what you tried. Until earlier this month, I'd been sleeping on Falafel myself. It was actually Hummus (my mother recommended it to me) which got me interersted in Falafel. Luckily, the Twin Cities is vegan friendly so there are many options -- even for someone like me who avoids Soy when at all possible.

yo NinjaspiT, you still 100% raw? haven't heard from you in a minute.

also, who has had some dehydrated kale chips?

i've been buying some from this raw spot here in cleveland. they use Kale, cashews, red pepper, lemon juice, nutritional yeast, & ancient sea salt and dehydrate it and the shit is the bomb!

excellent tasting and nutricious snacks.

i gotta buy me a dehydrator and make them shits.

i'll be 1 year 100 percent raw in september and i've never felt and looked better!

NinjaspiT · #**391** 07-29-2010, 07:22 PM

Kale Chips are my absolute fav...ive run through so much kale making them in my dehydrator...

its simple to make the cheese too...all you do is process a few bellpepper,add some blended jalapeno peppers or peeper of your choice,pour it over the washed kale pieces and voila!

Im not 100% raw right now...well i geuss you can say that I am...i am currently juice fasting for 32 days.

Discover The Secret To Healthy Living

Discover The Secret To Healthy Living
California Department of Health Services | 2004 | ISBN: N/A | 50 pages | PDF | 12 MB

The California 5 a Day—For Better Health! Campaign is administered in part by the Public Health Institute.
It is led by the California Department of Health Services in cooperation with the National 5 A Day Partnership
Discover The Secret To Healthy Living
Did you know that eating 5 to 9 servings of fruits and vegetables and enjoying physical activity every day are the most important lifestyle choices you can make? A few simple changes can fuel your body and help you maintain better health for years to come.

Visit the produce aisle of your local grocery store and you will see delicious fruits and vegetables everywhere! Besides fresh, fruits and vegetables are available frozen, canned, dried, and juiced. They are easy to fix, delicious to eat, and inexpensive to buy. Most of all, fruits and vegetables provide powerful plant nutrients that help you fight disease. When combined with a diet low in fat, eating more fruits and vegetables may also reduce your risk of developing serious health problems like cancer, heart disease, stroke, and diabetes.

In addition to fruits and vegetables, it is important to take advantage of the added benefits physical activity has to offer. By doing at least 30 minutes a day for adults and 60 minutes a day for children, physical activity may improve your overall health, boost your energy level, help you maintain a healthy body weight, reduce stress, and most of all make you look and feel great.

The Ultimate Metabolism Diet: Eat Right for Your Metabolic Type

The Ultimate Metabolism Diet: Eat Right for Your Metabolic Type
Hunter House | English | 2008-12-30 | ISBN: 0897935101 | 288 pages | PDF | 12 MB

Atkins, the Zone, the South Beach Diet. Anyone with a serious weight problem has probably tried — and failed — to use one of these diets to lose weight. And it’s not their fault. According to weight loss specialist Dr. Scott Rigden, there is no miracle diet that works for everyone because everyone possesses a unique body type and corresponding metabolism. People can be divided into five different metabolic types that have a corresponding plan of specific dietary and lifestyle habits that make weight loss work. In this book, Rigden helps readers determine their metabolic type and then devotes a chapter to each one with dietary, exercise, supplement, and medicine advice complete with glossaries and case studies. He also includes chapters on emotional eating and how to mentally prepare for weight loss. Readers find out why conventional diets don’t work and, using the guidelines in this book, jump-start their metabolism and experience safe, permanent weight loss.

The Metabolic Diet: The revolutionary diet that explodes the myths about carbohydrates and fats

The Metabolic Diet: The revolutionary diet that explodes the myths about carbohydrates and fats

AllProTraining.com Books | 2000 | ISBN: 0967989604 | 485 pages | PDF | 12 MB

Summary
This book is Fantastic (with a capital F).
I am a female bodybuilder and trainer who just loves this book, and use it for all my clients. My husband swears by it. Going through the carb phase is the best part.
Over a three month period my husband gained 20 lbs of muscle and lost 15 lbs of fat. Overall he lost only 5 lbs but he's more muscular and much leaner.

The good Dr has also put out an Anabolic Solution for bodybuilders that is amazing. If you are looking for someone to hold your hand while training and dieting, this book won't do it for you. It will give you all the guidelines and stamina that you need to do it alone.
We had the pleasure of meeting DR Di Pasquale just over a year ago. He is so nice (and he does exist). I find with some of men and women I meet who actually think they are bodybuilders eat a lot of garbage food, and when it comes down to it, they don't know how to train or diet properly. I can tell you this much, if you buy this book, you won't be disappointed.

quick question: is the Excalibur a descent dehydrator or do you recommend another one?

edit: i plan on making a lot of kale chips at a time. i'm wondering if this one is too small. i may want to go with the 9 Tray Excalibur

Thanks bro. I've made it 3 times now (baked) and it gets better every time. The thing i'm hooked on now is hummus w/ pitas and vegetables (cucumber, eggplant, tomato, romaine, red onion). Quick hunger fix and it gets me through the week. Pita's aren't the best thing for you..but, yeah..i'm getting there.

How do you cats feel about buying non-organic v.s. organic? Most people don't buy organic b/c of the price difference...but hearing about all these pesticide sprays and whatnot..can't help but wonder what really goes on before all that produce is put out to the public. I dropped $75 on fruit/veggies last weekend and the whole time i'm thinking "damn what if all this stuff has been sprayed down with chemicals to keep the bugs away" lol

Ninjaspit, congrats on that 32 day juice fast. I try to juice at least 3 days out of the week. Always keep this site you recommended in rotation http://www.living-foods.com/recipes/
This one's not half bad either http://www.juicing-for-health.com/juicer-recipes.html

Great Stuff great thread. I posted a while ago that I was trying to go more natural. Well I had to go on deployment and the internet we were running had bgol blocked so I couldnt post until now. Anyways. I stated that I wanted to bulk up and Im glad to say that I did for the six months I was gone. Our diet where I stayed was high in protein (our cooks cooked every type of chicken you can think of from fried to grilled to curry.) If it wasnt chicken it was pork chops or steaks. Take that with weightlifting/exercising everyday and protein shakes and I put on 15 lbs. of mostly muscle.

Now to the organic/natural part. With the recommendations posted here, I bought and was taking the combination of alive whole food multivitamin and mineral tablets, the perfect food super green tablets, vitamin C pills and fish oil. I also bought some hemp protein powder from www.iherb.com (this is an awesome site to get organic/natural supplements and items from).

The hemp protein is honestly some nasty stuff on first taste. It has a real nutty taste to it that you have to get used to. I made the mistake on first try of using 3 scoops and blended it with just a banana. That shit was sincerely nasty but my body felt different when I was forcing myself to drink it. Needless to say I wised up and only used one scoop thereafter and blended it with a banana and milk. Also I predominantly mixed the hemp protein with oatmeal when our cooks would serve it for breakfast.

I also bought off Iherb this stuff:

Its organic noni, acai, mangosteen, and goji blend in liquid form made by lifetime. Might seem expensive but it was worth the money and tastes good. Its like an alternative to coffee for when you wake up but you only need to take a cap full. I would take this before I worked out sometimes just because of the pep it gives you.

All in all I found a good balance in terms of food while I was deployed. I did eat alot of meat products but I also ate a shit ton of fruits(love mangos) and veggies while taking the above tablets and organic items. Now that Im back Im going to start hitting up the down to earth store they have here in hawaii and keep scowling this forum for tips and updates on stuff to try. I truly thank all yall brovas who post in this thread for the knowledge yall dropped. A healthy mind and body to a healthy destiny.

Genre: Video Training

The Program
Just replace one meal a day with Shakeology, exercise three times a week, and follow a balanced Eating Plan. It's that simple.
You'll lower cholesterol levels, lose pounds, and shed inches. Participants in an independent study who combined The Shake, The Workout, and our Eating Plan for 1990 days1 dropped 10 pounds and two inches off their waistline. They also improved their digestion, increased their energy levels, and lowered their total cholesterol on average by 30% and LDL ("bad") cholesterol by 38% on average .*
The Workouts
This set of two DVDs contains a 30-minute workout sequence and a 50-minute workout sequence. While you're first starting out, we recommend you do the 30-minute workout three times a week. Then rotate in the 50-minute workout once a week. Go at your own pace, but kick it up a notch as soon as you're ready to, and don't be afraid to push yourself. Soon, you'll notice more muscle tone and fewer food cravings. Before you know it, you'll have enough strength and energy to tackle The 50 three times a week.
The 30
The 1930 is a classic workout. It's a balanced combination of cardiovascular intervals-to burn calories-and time-tested strength moves that will tone your muscles and build your metabolism.
The 50
Your body will continue to progress on its path toward total wellness with The 50.
As your body becomes stronger and more efficient, The 50 will accelerate your progress-your strength,
cardiovascular fitness, and flexibility-in an easy-to-follow format.
