Awesome. What about the fiber that you're missing out when juicing. I usually go for smoothies because of that, but I'm curious what your take is on it. My fiance and I have been intermittent fasting for a few months and really seeing great results and feeling awesome. I think a good tip I realized was to ease into it, starting 1 day a week, then building up from there so it's easier to sustain. Looking forward to learning more about your experience!

It depends on the status of your internal system and unfortunately most people are a big mess inside. If you got a lot crap clogging up your system the importance of good fibers goes up. If your clean though fibers are not as vital.
I wanna shine a light on the four sources of pure water ( all machine-made distilled waters [distillers, evaporators, condensers, solar distillers, air wells, fog fences and dew ponds], all sky distilled waters [rain, mist, snow, dew and fog], all body distilled waters [saliva, plasma, amniotic fluid, urine and breast milk] and all plant distilled waters [raw fruit and vegetable juices] )
Will make a post with more in depth information about water and show you what kind of equipment we use here in our little communal house in Gothenburg , Sweden! :)
Awesome to hear! Looking forward to your future posts on water. I'm fascinated by water and feel there is so much to learn about it. As an avid gardener I also am excited to do experiments on different types of water and how it affects plant growth. Great to connect, @reko!
Cool! I'm mostly focused on foraging at the moment. Lots of nettles, dandelion, ground elder, wild grass etc. Use it mostly in cold pressed juices with apple, carrot, lemon, ginger... after one of those it's definitely FULL STEEM AHEAD!! ;)
Awesome! Do you harvest the nettles only when young or when they are full grown as well? I have lots of them around here. Do you harvest with gloves or have a good technique to avoid getting stung? Thanks for the advice and here's to natures abundance!
I harvest them all season long, my Green Star Elite juicer which is especially good at wild greens which saves me a lot of energy chewing and digesting.
Nettles can really hurt though as most knows, the trick is to not touch the upside of the leaves and avoid stroking motions. I usually do without gloves and just be steady and precise. If I get tagged I just take a leaf on the downside and roll it into a ball. Then just rub the place where it hurts and it works as an effective antidote.
Very interesting about using the underside of the leaf to calm the sting. The stinging kind of feels good haha, I wonder if there is a medicinal quality to it?

Have you heard of that black vegan bodybuilder who does 24hr fasts ? He just eats one meal at noon the size of three meals everyday. Think he is in his 70's but looks like he is in his early 40's
Yeah, I definitely found some of his ideas to be inspiring. He definitely looks so young. Pretty amazing. Have you seen this:
Thank you. This video was amazing.
I know right! Pretty wild stuff. That video first got me into IF.
The Story of a 78-Year-Old Vegan Bodybuilder - Jim Morris: Lifelong Fitness - Short Film
Wow. It is unbelievable. He doesn't look 78. I think, a person who is a vegan doesn't have complete minerals and vitamins his body needs.
I have heard of that one! A friend of mine tried to do that, and he actually really liked the way of eating!
