NutriBullet ?

This has been the best thing I have bought in some time! Anybody else use one? I grind up all kinds of crap and drink it down in the mornings on the way to work. No GI issues from it.

Currently I grind up lot’s of spinach, cucumber, almonds, walnuts, coconut, honey, flax seeds, apples, oranges, bananas and add a tablespoon of fish oil and a scoop of vanilla protein powder then top it off with almond and coconut milk. I mix all of the above together (minus fish oil and almond/coconut milk) in little plastic bags and put them in the freezer. In the morning I grab a bog, put it in the cup, add the fish oil and almond/coconut milk and blend away for a few minutes.

Tastes a whole lot better than it sounds.

I call it my baby food diet...

Anyway I have been missing a lot of this stuff from my diet as I cannot eat some of the ingredients raw. However ground up they seem fine.

Just wanted to pass on the tip to others that might be having food tolerance issues. Might be something to consider trying - at least with your safe foods at first if you know them.

Mark, this mixture sounds like a true gourmet delicacy! I'd never think that fish oil with vanilla can go so well together, you are a real expert in foodpairing

haha i've once read a sociological study that Slavic people are much more conservative about food than people in the Western countries, I think it can apply to me because when I read American or English culinary recipes, I often find them quite bizarre to my taste I wish I didn't have a craving for chocolate like you, unfortunately it's not my case. As for the nutribullet, many people have told me it's great and I was even considering buying it, however i can't drink anything raw (juicing is definitely not for me), so I gave up the idea for now

Freezing them is a great idea!

I have avoided the shake when I'm flaring bc isn't it still fiber? Won't it still make you go? I would think your body still have to process it, no?

Wondering. I just bought a nutrabullet two weeks ago but haven't I'd it much bc my symptoms are getting worse.

Nothing has gotten me to remission in seven years.

But, when I am very strict with my diet I can get down to two or three bowel movements a day. I feel almost normal.

One of my keys is juicing.

It's my first meal of the day.

I think you're right, Mark. I think our bodies crave this stuff. We get very low in minerals. It is remarkable how many of the vitamins and minerals are necessary for our bodies to make neurotransmitters. Unless we give our bodies adequate copper, selenium, B6, pantothenic acid and much more, how can we possibly hope to let our bodies make the neurotransmitters that keep us happy AND digesting well. Yes, it is the serotonin in our guts that carries messages to our brains that we have pathogens or poisons in our guts.

On top of that we need the flavonoids in fruits and vegetables to bring down inflammation in our bodies and prevent cancer.

So, we can't digest fiber. But, we can't starve ourselves of nutrients, either.

I begin each day with a juice of fresh turmeric root, ginger root, cucumber, watermelon, celery, red cabbage (yes, cabbage juice! ), sweet potato, orange, apple, pineapple, and lemon.
