One main reason why even the most health conscious
people are not eating as much raw fruits and vegetables
as they should was because it would take a long time
to chew and to swallow them. Let's say you want to eat kiwi,
tempeh, celery, carrot, okra, kale,
black mushroom, tomato, garlic, orange, banana, apple,
broccoli, red cargo rice, mung beans, nuts and
grains, plus your other favorite fruits and
vegetables.
How long would it take you to chew and eat them all? And
how much time do you have to eat them before you must go to
work or return to work from your lunch break? You don't have
that much time to spend, do you?
Eating fruits and
vegetables used to be a chore for me until I discovered that I
can use my blender to do all the 'chewing' for me in less than
5 minutes. I gather all the raw fruits and vegetables,
beans, nuts, grains, etcetera in a blender, add a cup or
more of good bottled water, and push the 'shred' or 'grind'
button until I get them smooth.That's all to it. I then pour
them in tall glasses and drink them. If I get
2 glasses I drink one for breakfast and one for dinner.
Once I am finished I simply rinse my mouth, and I
don't need to floss my teeth. Bring a couple 100% whole
wheat bread (toast) with you in case you are still
hungry at work....
Fruits, vegetables, tempeh, beans and nuts are all high in
fiber and rich
in nutrition.
