@LovingRaw Crazy man. I just buy giant bags of apples, oranges,etc for 5 dollars a bag. Organic too! Cost me about 30-45 dollars a week to juice fast or feast.
Even on shorter juice feasts, I've noticed a loss of energy when you break it. Also bloating, etc. I am kinda where you were at the beginning, establishing a solid base for a real "juice feast." I'm surprised you didn't seem to follow the juice feast protocol, with the mandatory green juice every morning for cleansing, etc., but did some water and coconut only also.
Curious, did you do the other "juice feast" protocols for toxic elimination.
thank you so much for this vid. It was important for me because I was nervous about doing the juice feast only because I am sooooo very new to Raw foods. I am now more sure that I will continue to first build a foundation then go on a raw feast. I feel really great already having started my journey. Thank you so much Phillip
I have been seriously thinking about doing a small juice feast, to try it out, over christmas :) I am 100% raw or maybe 98 but I haven't got a dehydrater or a good blender for some recepies so I think it is easier to just juice my way through the holiday instead of use time to research and use money I dont have on expencive ingrediants and applyances for elaborate raw xmas food :) Next year I might do that but I wanna try the 3 month juice feast this summer and I wanna just try it out before too
I think a good idea is to do the fast juice for one day. If you feel good after that, you do another day. If you feel good, do it for a second day and so on. If you feel bad a certain point, then have some proteins like nuts.
ahhhhhhhhhhhh. much appreciated. been procrastinating on doing my quarterly 20 days fast. now i'm ultra motivated to make it longer and focus on coming off right! yeah. thanks bro~ respect! one love~
Seems like a very extreme decision to make. I might consider a month juice feast, but I honestly know myself enough to know that psychologically, it would not be a good idea for me to pursue.. You need fat, even if I did a juice feast, to not eat fat is kinda dumb, because a lot of those vitamins are lipid soluble, and you wouldn't even exploit the total nutrition of what you are drinking.. Doesn't make sense. Thanks for sharing your honest experience, sounds like you know what your doing.
Humph, well what's stopping you from mixing some good profiled oil into your juice? OK, it wouldn't be a strict juice feast then, but so what, eh. My beef is what about the pulp, the whole food? You can't seriously juice an avocado. My friend's qualm was it would be too sweet. Then I told her that greens, for instance, embitter in a nice nutritious way, rounding out, balancing the tastes, & so broadening nutrition too. It could give digestion a break, freeing the body's energies for healing
This is the first and only video of yours that I've seen so far, and you have such an amazing attitude towards life! I love it!! I couldn't help but smile. I've been vegetarian for a few months and I'll be doing a 30 day RAW challenge. I had never heard of juice feasting before, but it seems interesting. With the raw challenge, I'll be drinking mostly juices as my meals as fruits and veggies usually hurt my teeth since they are cold. I just may look in to this after. Thanks for the info!
i have had the same problem for a year or so just increase your intake of raw juices mostly leafy greens ,all the best, i have done this an d now i tend to deslike ooked food ,and prefer green juices/or raw food all the best.
It's probably just that the first days are the hardest. It's like going to space: The first minutes in the spacecraft are hell because you're trying to get away from Earth's attraction. Once in space, it's easy.
yo bro from your other videos i can tell you are real and want to help people, great job. i started to do a green drink in the morning and night and avocado during the day but i want to do the juice fast for 7 days or so. so how much juice did you drink and how often and how about water? i do collards, chard, cucumbers, cellery, kale, beet greens, anything green in the garden and it does curb my hunger. any advice? mahalo and aloha
Does juice feasting protect the metabolism better than juice fasting? Can you make juices ahead of time in the day ( 5 or so hours ahead of time) or will it lose all of the enzymes?Or would freezing be better? Im in college, so i only have small windows of time to juice without the noise bothering people, so it would be nice to make it ahead of time.
Hi, thanks so much for sharing your experience. Did you take all those crazy supplements recommended by David Rainoshek? I was doing a search on juice feasting, I'm thinking about doing it in the near future. Any books or websites that helped you figure it out? I've been 100% raw for about 10 weeks now, two cooked meals, which really messed me up. I did a green smoothie gig for a week, felt great!
I don't think so. I don't believe that our bodies were created for just juices. Eat raw fruits and vegetables is one thing, but this seems a little extreme!!!
I think you look healthier in this video then on the video when you were eating your first food. Anyway, thanks for the videos and I'm checking out your sight. very nice!
This vid is a wonderful blessing for newbies in fasting/juicing. You spoke a lot of truth and confirmed some things with me. I've fasted for 25 days on fruit, focusing on lots of berries. This was a recommendation for me and I went into it with a lot of resistance. I was supposed to go for 30 days but because of the initial resistance to the fast and the space that I was in it was torture. I remember eating like a maniac coming off the fast. I love fasting but it wasn't the time for me.
I have been off track for awhile. Been eating raw again for the last 2 months. Feeling better but not as well as I did when I first went raw. I think after watching these videos I am going to prepare for a Juice feast on Sept 1. Thank youfor your honest videos!
Congratulations at taking the time to make adjustments in your life. Switching to a high amount of raw food will really make a change. I found the weight really comes of the fastest when you are 100% raw, and cut out meats which still contain cholesterol. But every step is amazing. Go for it!
I'm 339lbs Im 6'3 I had knee surgery and really blew up. Your videos have given me the confidence to do the Raw Diet. I'm done with my detox from caffine and coca cola and I'm juicing and eating salads just like you said. It's delicious ! My goal is 200lbs. My B/p is 160/100 I'm sure it will go down. I have no cravings for junk food. I always made fun of Vegans! I'm not giving up meat, I'm just making 95% of my diet during the week raw fruits and vegetables. THANK YOU!
thanks for sharing this! It will be a long while till I feel I will have the discipline to commit to something like this..long..long while..:) for now I will enrich myself with knowledge....thanks again.
Phil, Thank you so much for this video. I love how in touch you are and how beautifully you communicate your observations, with honesty and without judgement. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us.
I have been thinking about doing a juice feast. Right now I am high raw. Did you do juice or smoothies? Like from a juicer or a blender? Very informative video, it answered a lot of questions for me.
Philip thank you for a great vlog! It is so important to stress how the transition time after any kind of fast needs as much care, consideration and time as the fast/protocol itself. I'm in the midst of a healing protocol right now that is very low glycemic low fat and the 6 weeks following it are perhaps even more important for the body to reset and balance. I will be transitioning in a couple weeks and so this post is especially timely & informative for me right now.
Good for U!!! Congratulations on your cleanse and weightloss.

Were those raw foods organic? The switching to more food is just the digestion system adjusting to the switch but i guess you'd know that.
