My big hangup is greens. I know It's not just me. It doesn't taste good. I like Kale because it doesn't have much of it's own taste. I keep thinking I'll get used to the flavor of greens but in the meantime...ew. People can fail at going raw because they don't eat enough greens. I don't want to fail. But if greens are so important, wouldn't the taste be naturally attractive to more people?

The taste becomes naturally attractive as the sense of taste naturalizes - this may take some time to occur. Nevertheless we each need varying amounts and it may be less than we think but more than we would normally consume in the SAD(iet). Blending greens with fruits makes them much more palatable for the beginner and with a little practice and experimentation you can turn this into an art. Keep blends simple however and cycle through your greens to avoid overloading on various alkaloids.

Sprouts are a beautiful way to get greens. My kitchen looks like a micro garden. :-)

i'm transitioning, so i do eat 1 cooked meal a day. i find it much easier to digest if i eat it at lunch, when the digestive enzymes (according to indian ayurvedic medicine) is higher, than trying to cope with it at dinner time. i eat raw at breakfast and dinner, and snacks. your smoothie looks delish!

Very cool. I dig that Gabriel Cousins goes into ayurveda in his Rainbow Green Live Food book. It certainly makes a difference if you know this stuff. Good on you. I should be doing the same :)

This looks kind of yummy this orange stuff but I don't know if I want to really go the raw way, all the way, maybe just some things, I know that's sorta half baked, but I'm not ready to give up things like bread, pasta, just yet...

Juice greens with other veggies, and they mix in and become part of the delicious whole. Mix in apples, cucumbers, celery, bell peppers and carrots, and you get what you need within a delicious juice.

Ok cool. I'll try the overnight thing. I might enjoy it with the acids from the vinegar having tenderized it. Cheers

Yep, water needed - just a bit tho. Far out, I'm actually salivating from reading your msg, haha. I used to live in Singapore and I went totally nuts on coconuts but reading that makes me want to start using them again :)
