The dread of “Growing Old” and becoming a burden to myself and others is one of my greatest fears. In my opinion the greatest discovery by modern man is the power to rejuvenate yourself physically, mentally, and spiritually with rational FASTING.
When I arrived to United States twenty-five years ago I was young and an absolutely healthy woman. I was eager to learn a new language and adapt to the new lifestyle. I was open to trying everything and anything.
To be able to learn English quickly – I decided to immerse myself in an English speaking family and I started caring for 2 small children – full time. But the lady asked me to clean their toys with Windex.
And after a couple of days I got a very bad allergy. My hands became crusty and dry. She gave me gloves.
But I had to do something about it. I went to a local pharmacy and asked the pharmacist – what to do? He happened to be Chinese. He quickly suggested for me to do a cleanse. He sent me to his friend – a Chinese doctor. I got all these Chinese herbs and was following his suggestions.
And one day I was watching TV and an infomercial came on – and it was – Juice man! He was really funny and super energetic. He was talking and demonstrating the juicer. It capture me. I knew that I need the JUICEMAN. That little machine was furious, easy to clean, and only $64.00 if you buy right away!
I got it! OMG – thank god I had $64.00 dollars in my bank account.
I remember I had my first secured credit card.
I have to tell you that was my best investment in my health. That little juicer worked for 15 years! I loved it! And that is how my journey to juicing began.
Now after many years of juicing – I have a special juicer for wheatgrass, and a regular juicer. Actually if you look up juice makers – that Juiceman juicer is still available. Now it costs about $100. There are many companies now offering juice delivery to your doorstep. I know – it’s easy and if you don’t have time, but have the money to spend on that service – you can do that. But personally – If you can – it’s best to do it yourself. You are going to learn so much more, and save a lot of money. Of course – when you work during the day and you happen to be near a juice place – once a day you can get yourself a juice. But nothing will replace your own juice that’s made to your liking following just a simple recipe and you can add anything you want or craving at the moment. It will make you feel like you creating something personal for your mind and body!
So – as we prepare for our juice cleanse week – think about if you need a juicer? Invest in one! Remember you will use this machine over and over again for years to come! There are many different juice makers, but I would suggest for you to get the easiest to clean. Let me know if you need help.
