First to reduce the amount of fresh fruit we need, what can be very expensive, we mix our juices fresh juice with all natural and organic pre-made product found in the department. These juices are super healthy, and often have a lot of vitamins and minerals. The brands we have in our area: Odwalla, Naked and Bolthouse Farms. With ready-made juices, make sure to read the labels carefully, because not everyone is all the juice / puree mixture. Make sure they are freeeverything with milk, caffeine (such as green tea or cocoa beans) or sugar (even natural - such as "cane juice / extract" or "evaporated cane juice"). My favorites were "Odwalla: Orignial Super Food". "Naked Superfood Green Machine" and the brand name "Odwalla" gives you a great kick of super healthy stuff like spirulina, wheat grass, barley and wheat germ, but only taste delicious apple, peach, mango, strawberry and banana fruit mix, the "Naked" brand madethe same as the brand name "Odwalla", but even more, including broccoli, spinach, parsley, chlorella, blue green algae, garlic and ginger Oderless. We want to make sure that the juice is drunk b / c the body has to work harder to reduce the sugar in fruit and you may find yourself in mid-afternoon crash.
I found that the best way to save money to save Hop on your grocery bill. I'm beginning to save at the lowest cost in my area and my way to the mid-price segmentsave and end up on the specialty food business. This way I get all the organic food I need at the lowest price I can. I also check to see who is the first paper with a sale of items that I want his head. For example, I usually my bagged spinach from Wal-Mart b / c it costs less than 0.50 cents to $ 2.49 / bag vs. $ 2.99 / bag Publix. On some weekends, Publix their bags on sale 2 for $ 4.00 - that saves me $ 1.00, which really adds after a while '. It takes more time to buy, and Ibe aware, I noticed the time to go slow and be able to read labels and compare prices, but it is definitely well worth it!
Super Food
In our area, I start at Wal-Mart first, they have many of the pre-fruit juices, but they are usually less expensive than any other activity from 0.05 to 0.10 - if you buy as much as we do, This can be a long party. Wal-Mart usually has some organic vegetables and, again at a lower price than any other activity. I usually score in the organic grapes, carrots, spinach,And the strawberries are. I want to mention, but the strawberries are so fresh it looks, so I have carefully inspected and if I feel my last, I understood my next point, Publix.
Publix is also known in our area for the upper and meat departments. They are well equipped, very fresh, and friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff. In recent months, their organic market had increased significantly. Instead of buying individual apples to 2.50 /lb, I can buy a £ 5 bag of organic Gala apples for $ 3.89. I usually go through 1 ½ - 2 bags per week, so a lot of savings for me. The same is true for naval oranges - are organic, through the bag of 5 pounds. I take organic raspberry juice and no I'm not ready at Wal-Mart and spend my next stop, my favorite place in the world, Whole Foods Market.
A Whole Foods Market, the production department seems pretty overwhelming when you walk in. Its display is lusheverything from the ordinary to the exotic. I must remember to stay focused and not let my eyes drift from the glass and smells wonderful colors of their take-away section of ready-made foods. No need to guess which fruit is organic and what not, I do not find to be manufactured in boxes of berries to mold those who do not have - everything of every day fresh and well maintained. I think melons, pineapple, watermelon, blackberries, and here.
Alsoif not fast, do this routine shopping. Do not believe the amount of money saved to buy real price. You have to spend a little 'more to shop, but worth every penny. Be stored when we get home, prepare everything in the refrigerator. We have invested over the past year in several vacuum seal storage containers called Ultra Suction - We had a lot of spinach in the last 6 weeks before these suckers - would be even more likely, but we all ate before ourexperiement was over! So, needless to say, our berries stay fresh all week! We all wash our berries, grapes, apples and oranges and carrots are all Scrubb. We ultra-flat berries and grapes and all the envelopes in a gallon rebag clean. Organize, rinsing and washing of the day shopping will help you quickly and easily in the rest of the week and save a lot of time.
Now, for the calculations. We had our measurements up to a science now. It is hereOur daily diet:
Breakfast:
Bolthouse Farms C-1 Boost Cup
½ cup of fresh fruit juices (melon, apple, orange, carrot)
Lunch:
1 Cup Odwalla Superfood
½ cup of naked Superfood
½ cup of fresh juice (spinach, apples, carrots &)
Snack:
½ cup of pomegranate juice Odwalla
½ cup Bolthouse Farms Berry Blast
½ cup of fresh juice (grapes, strawberries, blackberries, raspberries)
Dinner:
1Odwalla Superfood Cup
½ cup of naked Superfood
½ cup of fresh juice (spinach, apples, carrots &)
So with that in mind, the menu, I go with my calculations. Juicing for two people for seven days, I need the following ready-made fruit juices:
112 oz C-Boost:
3 33 oz bottles (Wal-Mart, Publix, or Whole Foods Market)
1, 16 ml (Wal-Mart, Publix, or Whole Foods Market)
56 oz Pomegranate juice:
1, 64 ml bottle
(Publix or WholeFoods Market)
56 oz Berry Blast:
2, 33 oz bottles (Publix or Whole Foods Market)
Odwalla Superfood 224 oz:
3, 64 oz bottles (Publix or Whole Foods Market)
2 15 oz bottles (Wal-Mart, Publix or Whole Foods Market)
112 oz Superfood Nude:
3, 33 oz bottles (Publix or Whole Foods Market)
1, 16 ml bottle (Publix or Whole Foods Market)
The biggest advantage of a prolonged fast, in terms of spending, I would have to say is that weknow exactly how many fruits and vegetables we need for the whole week. So, we have no money or food, we only buy what we need:
Breakfast:
¼ cantaloupe, 1 orange, 2 small apples, 4 carrots
(Makes 1 cup, 2, ½ Cup servings)
Lunch:
3 apples, 4 carrots, spinach ¼ Bag
(Makes 1 cup, 2, ½ Cup servings)
Snack:
1 cup grapes (green or black or mixed), 1 cup raspberries 1 cup blackberries, strawberries and 12
(Contains: 1Cup, 2, ½ Cup servings)
Dinner:
3 apples, 4 carrots, spinach ¼ Bag
(Makes 1 cup, 2, ½ Cup servings)
For a 7 day week, this is what our shopping cart is filled with:
3, melons
2, £ 5 bags of apples
1, € 5 bag of oranges
1, € 5 bag of carrots
2 bags of spinach
2, container of strawberries
3, container raspberries
3, container More
1, Little Green Bag Grape
1, small black or purple bagGrapes
A couple of days during fasting, for a special treat, I have a couple of bananas, pineapple, tropical Odwalla an energy and a can of coconut milk purchased. The ½ pineapple and juice of 2 oranges. I might add, that give the Odwalla juice, 1 cup of pineapple, half a can of coconut milk and 2 bananas in a blender and a smoothie tropical juice.
It 'important to remember that our menu is tailored to our specific tastes. We do not have the stomach for all the juicesdifferent types of vegetables, we have had in the first week to get a super-charged week of detoxification, but after, we could not do. If you do not mind, let us say with all my heart: "Go for it" - all the vegetable juices to your heart's content: celery, parsley, cabbage, tomatoes, cucumbers, means to join, etc. Bolthouse Farms juice prefabricated "Veg" - is made of tomatoes, tomato juice, so if you want, you'll love this. Stay away from V8 - it's nice to have high sodium and high fructose corn V8 Splash moreSyrup and real vegetables! Stick with all natural and organic juices in the production department.
Stay tuned for our next article on "The art of extravagance."
