madness indeed. a whole meal? of meat AND carbohydrates? AND after a long fast? AND a COMPLEX carbohydrate at that? yes enough to bring on a massive attack of... well everything? and possibly permanent damage to the unprepared intestinal villi.
but in my case choosing to remain in ketosis for the 1st four days with tiny portions throughout the day of zero-carbohydrates and only introducing small cups of uncomplex diluted juiced greens on the 5th was quite a different scenario altogether. and i would do it again in a heartbeat.
in fact i'm just about to make a raw emerald smoothie right now. it will consist of lots of leafy greens:
bok choy
choy san
english spinach
gai lan (chinese broccoli)
runner beans
picked garlic
tomatoes
whole lemon
ginger
and one sweet apple.
juiced first then reblended with the pulp, sprinkled with chilli pepper and a few drops of sesame oil and consumed immediately before it oxidizes. I've been a serious GREENS juicer all my adult life, coz i makes me feel...
...FANTASTIC!!!...lol!
cheers everyone :-)
