Question: I'm on a 40-day juice fast to detox my colon!. Where do you get protein!? I can't have soy or milk products!
Hello All
I've been on a juice fast for a few weeks now & I'm doing pretty good!. At least the big belly & cravings are gone, yipppeee!
I'm walking everyday to tighten up b/c i don't want to have flabby skin from the weight lost!.
I know how vegetarians get their protein with solid foods like LEGUMES, GRAINS, Veggie Burgers, milk & things of that nature!. But, If you're on a juice fast (Fruit & Veggies only) how do I incorporate protein within the fast!. I'm extracting the juice from a juicer extractor/wheatgrass machine as opposed to a blender!.
I know some will say that Vegetarians get their protein from food, just like anyone else but I'm on a juice fast program and I can't juice certain foods like:
soy foods, tofu, cheese, nuts, beans, whey & soy protein powders, eggs, etc!.
SPIRULINA powder is a great source of protein! It mixes well with my green juices and it cleared my skin,but I wanted to know if you know of any other protein sources I can have for my juice fast program!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

MY Personal Trainer did Juice Feasting for 90 days, now she is doing Juice, Green Smoothies & Fresh Salads!. She looks wonderful, & feels great!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Spirulina is excellent, has complete protein and is a whole food ;
my question would be how much is needed (grams) to supplement your daily intake and you will know what amounts you are taking and combined w/juices how much to include, like what amount of powder to addWww@FoodAQ@Com

That sounds like an extremely unhealthy diet!. If you eat enough fiber you don't need to fast!. Our bodies naturally clean themselves!. I would never recommend doing such a risky thing!.

Our bodies need certain things to survive and I a juice fast is just not safe!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Soybeans!. That is what they make tofu from, I don't understand why you can't have these!. I agree with the previous poster about the healthiness of the program though!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Try a protein vitamin!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
