I have some thoughts about water fasting, refeeding, and what should not be juiced.
1) I have read that when one refeeds, what they eat is what rebuilds the new cells, and the full effectiveness of the fast can be finalized or ruined right there.
So true.
Does that mean one should stay raw vegan for as LONG as possible after the fast? All prior literature seemed to say that the ramp up, despite starting with fruits and vegetable juices, can be increased to all other foods in 3 days or so. But for cell rebuilding, it would be intuitive that raw vegan should continue for 10+ days (or even permanently, if possible).
Food intake after a fast depends on the length of the fast. Short fasts can be broken with any food, except for processed junk (well, some will argue if it is food). Craw should be taken in breaking fast after a long fast.
But regardless one should eat raw vegan foods. Some cooked foods are beneficial, i.e. Baked potato has more vitamin C than a raw potato. Rice and beans are another example, raw foodists will never touch these. Every animal with lips and molars on the planet are herbivores, lips to drink water with, molars to chew Fibrous foods with.(I can go deeper in the whole anatomy, but in another forum)
2) I don't think leafy greens should be juiced. They should be eaten in full form. This is because they produce too little juice anyway, meaning that most nutrients remain in the pulp. Chlorella tablets are healthy, obviously without any moisture, which tells us something about the value of eating the entire green leaf. Plus, I recently went a day where I ate only spinach, with a small amount of carrots and tomato (although not organic). Elimination was great the next morning, with no 'green' tint or anything.
Every food can be juiced. I juice all my greens in NutriBullet, it keeps everything in the juice nothing goes to waste, there are juicers strictly for greens too. NutriBullet takes less than 30 seconds for me to make 32oz juice. Prep may take 5 minutes, because you have to chop everything to a smaller size.
Hmmm…interesting about spinach all day. How much spinach, carrots and tomatoes did you eat and how often? I am going try this. Sure Elimination was great, all Fibrous foods.
2) Onion juice (first thing in the morning, and then nothing else for 1 hour) is very effective in improving health. I think everyone should be doing this daily, *before* you have any disease. The onion pulp is useful in a myriad of other things as well. You can even rub it on your scalp to thicken hair, if there is some juice left in it.
It is not easy to drink, but gets easier with practice. I am more impressed with someone who can drink a glass of onion juice than someone who can chug a shot of hard liquor (not to mention the health benefits of the former vs. the latter). But onions have a lot of juice, and are cheap (and organic is not necessary for onions). Do it.
Do you means onion juice daily and not during a refeed period?
I have never tried onion juice. I think onion juice will be harsh after a fast, but I can't tell you for sure because I have never tried it. My Breville juicer will be perfect for an onion. This may sound crazy, but I have eaten onion by itself at times.
