'Wings posted: >>> 1 scoop of your favorite protein powder in vanilla... Sun Warrior is vegan (PS: not specifically called for on the Schulze protocol, but if you go to the website and look at the table of ingredients, I don't think Schulze would have a big problem with it... ask Uny to be sure) <<<

Uny here! :)  Yes, Schulze (and Gerson/Christopher) would  "have a big problem with" protein powder.  Natural Healing = Natural Food...and protein powders (even this one) are certainly not natural.

Even if it was, there is absolutely no need for extra protein on the IP or Mucusless diet...in fact, protein (especially too much) is an ANTI-healer.  For those that would like to learn more about "protein", here's GREAT information: http://curezone.com/forums/fm.asp?i=1698051#i

Why is this protein powder NOT natural or advisable (and certainly NOT part of the IP)?  Well, for starters it's "dead".  We do our best to ingest as much "life" as possible.  We use the 'dead' SuperFood and Bee Pollen (but all ingredients are in their natural form).  But being 'dead' isn't the 'main reason' we don't use these laboratory-created powders - it's because they're not natural to our bodies.

From the Sun Warrior site:

By using a unique natural wholistic bio-fermentation process and by combining the sprouted endosperm and the bran from raw sprouted whole grain brown rice, Sunwarrior has conquered this challenge.
The result of this amazing process is a massive increase in Lysine and essential and non-essential amino acids forming a perfectly balanced amino acid profile.  But this is not 'natural whole rice" ...see how they separated the endosperm from the bran in the description for this :::cough::: "natural & wholistic" process that's neither?  And it's a 'massive increase in Lysine' that's not natural to our bodies.   So our bodies have to expend energy to process, rebalance and utilize it - energy that COULD be being used to heal itself.  And just what "natural & wholistic bio-fermentation process' are they using on the isolated bran and endosperm?

At 80% pure protein, Sunwarrior has created the highest and first raw complete vegan, hypo-allergenic superfood protein on the market.  At 80% protein, they have created something that has almost triple the amount of protein of ANYTHING found in nature.  Natural? Not a chance.

By using a third generation process, we have created the best tasting vegetable protein  Notice how they keep "creating" with processes they don't explain.  Nature has already "created" everything we need to heal and restore our body...without their "processes".

We use an old world process of combining the sprouted endosperm and the bran from Raw Sprouted Whole Grain Brown Rice. This unique process creates the first complete hypoallergenic Protein which is made up of all 9 essential amino acids and other non-essential amino acids in a perfectly balanced amino acid profile.  Wow, there's some "spin" for ya.  First it was a "unique" process using isolated sprouted endosperm and bran (not sprouted WHOLE rice)...and now they're calling it an "old world process".  Well, lol, I suppose it could have been done in a "old world laboratory"...but it ain't natural.

I'm not going to bother to discuss the rest of the claims on the sites, nor the fact the stevia is likely 'white processed stevia powder' (no more natural than white sugar) and  'bio-fermented xanathan gum' as a stabilizer, and the fact that ratio of ingredients is nowhere to be found on the site.

Bottom line: we get all the protein we need from natural sources on the IP (especially now that bee pollen is added); this 'created' product is not natural and it's not something that Schulze, Gerson, Christopher (or lil' ole me) recommends.

Healthiest of blessings,
