How I make my Green Juice for Beginners - Using a blender and a bag

I have type 2 diabetes and recently lost 30 pounds with raw foods and green juices. I could not do a lot of fruit juice due to my diabetes. This juice provides plenty of greens, which are recommended when you try to eat more raw foods. I use a blender and a paint strainer bag - but would recommend a nut milk bag. I am now going for the next 30 pounds drinking a quart of this juice daily along with a mostly raw food diet.

I also have a Rawbetes community - a forum for people with diabetes who are trying to get more raw food in their diet. You can find the link on my blog.

a juicer is way easier and more efficient

@MrHealthQuest I used juicers when I was doing the juice feast and using them as much as I did, they never lasted more than a month. Also there was still a lot of juice left in the pulp. Doing it with the blender and bag saved me a lot of money.

a bit too long for people who are looking for special secrets that we don't already know

@FabioTheRhythms sorry :( I aimed this video at beginners who had no idea how to do it.

[knuffies2007]

are you having trouble breathing??

[bjay100]

Only when I get sick or there's a lot of smoke or pollution outside.

thank you for all the tips... especially the tip on dehydration

[mizchulita]

I appreciate this--you've just saved me from buying an expensive juicer that I really can't afford. Excellent tutorial.

1) When I can't eat organic, I buy regular. I try to peel what I can and wash it. I've read toxins stay with the pulp and are magnetically repelled to the juice part so when you juice and remove the pulp you remove a lot of the toxins.

2) I myself hit a plateau but most people just drop weight continually. I think I'm having problems because of the type 2 diabetes.

sounds good!

When I was doing just the juice my blood sugar levels went down to almost normal. When I do "mostly" raw they run higher, but not as high as when I just eat normal food. I still make this juice once in a while but now I try to keep it simple - often just the greens with either cucumber or celery because I don't mind the strong green taste myself.

has the juice had an effect on your blood sugar levels?, what other benefits have you observed?

thanks
