Egg White Protein Powder!

Image
In The Juice Drink Strategy, I have long been searching for the ideal protein source. As you know, protein is extremely important in achieving an ideal diet... in your daily juice drink, you already add yogurt, perhaps milk, and of course even the fruits and vegetables add some protein, since their cell walls are so disrupted that all of the available nutrients are readily available for your body to use! But now, I have found the perfect source of natural, completely absorbable protein ! Egg white protein powder is the perfect solution! Not only is it a perfect, healthy, absorbable form of protein with NO fat, NO sugar- NOTHING you don't want, and everything that you do! And, this powder is very inexpensive, and even cheaper than buying whole eggs!! (And with none of the fat!) I use roughly two heaping tablespoons per juice drink as outlined in The Juice Drink Strategy default juice drink. I even have resourced a great source of this wonder-food: Rose Acre Farms - you can even o

Hippocrates quote

"Let your food be medicine, and your medicine be food!" This quote is as true now as it ever was- EAT PROPERLY, AND MOST OF YOUR ILLS WILL DISAPPEAR!! Of course, exercise and deep breathing also figure into this equation. The Juice Drink Strategy should be your first step! Jay

Psychological benefits of the Juice Drink Strategy

The psychological benefits of The Juice Drink Strategy or the barbarian diet are another facet that bears further thought: If you are receiving perfect, total nutrition... Don't you think your mental state will benefit, ALONG WITH your physical appearance and strength?? Well, of course! It just makes sense- just as, in the above photo, I am doing a "wheeled pushup", which most 57 year old (or 27 year olds!) could not do one of which! And so, my physical self is in far better condition that average....(I routinely do 10 +). In like manner, I'm sure my mental state is much more tranquil, than someone who eats the typical American/Western "junk food" diet. (Bread, pasta, twinkies, cheeto's, etc.) The brain and psyche are intimately connected with the body... which is intimately connected with the diet! And exercise, but that is another post... Which comes first: "the diet or the exercise?" They are so inter-related! We need both!

Questions about the Juice Drink Strategy

Jay, just have a quick question … ok, 2 quick questions … .. 1. My husband takes his lunch every day … .if we shouldn ’ t use white bread, is the whole wheat any better? If we drink the juice in the morning, what can he have for lunch … if I pack like fruit … he doesn ’ t take time for lunch, he eats as he is driving … .he ’ s not happy about giving up his bag of fritos , but he and I are going to try this starting next week … .( I am so excited) I decided to slowly change our eating habits , well in his case anyway.. 2. Can I make the juice drink in the morning and keep it in the refrigerator or in my husband's case in his cooler till we drink it at lunch or is it better to make it and drink it immediately? I n which case I will have to come up with something for Dave for lunch … .(see question 1) I am already doing aerobics, yoga and walking 2 miles at least 2 times a week, but will look into the isometric exercises … those may help my husband as he h

Great article by Charles Atlas on fitness for the average man!

How to do the Juice Drink Stragegy... WITHOUT the juice drink!

Image
Lots of folks tell me "Jay, I'd love to try The Juice Drink Strategy to garner the weight loss and health benefits, but I just don't want to spend money to buy a Vitamix blender, darn you!" I sympathize- It's hard to invest in something, when you don't know absolutely that your results will pay off! Let me tell you now: they will! In a big way!! You would pay thousands of dollars if you could experience, beforehand , just how you would feel and look after following the prescriptions outlined in The Juice Drink Strategy! But, there is a way to "preview" the advantages, without spending a cent! Firstly, just cut out all carbohydrates from flour products: (chips, bread, snack foods, etc.) Next, resolve to eat a Barbarian Diet: Lean meats and seafood in unlimited amounts Fruits and vegetables in unlimited amounts Dairy products and eggs and nuts (excluding cashews and peanuts!) in reasonable amounts... Actually, probably more than you currently eat!

Sports versus Exercise

Image
Many, if not most people, assume that those fit, lean folks they see participating in sports achieved that level of fitness by playing sports... No- by developing a fit body, you gain the type of body that performs well at most any sport. But, this body is attained by (you guessed it!): Proper diet ( which is most readily achieved by following the Juice Drink Strategy!) , Proper exercise ( Tranformetrics). Once you have transformed your body utilizing this strategy, why then you certainly can use it to participate in sports activities, which may slightly elevate certain aspects of your fitness. But, in general, sports primarily are for recreation! The above is a photo of me recreating To recap: Exercise is hard, and repetitive, to produce results. Sports are fun. There is a huge difference between the two activities! The above photo is of me "recreating" at the Chicago Board of Trade this summer, courtesy of brother JEFF!

The Juice Drink Strategy- the final solution!

So, you've gotten a Vitamix blender... made few drinks for yourself, and maybe your family! Great! "Once begun, half done!" as they say. But now, you need to make it a habit- only by regular, daily usage can you gain the incredible, life-changing results you desire! It takes 28 days to ingrain a lifelong habit. Resolve to start now! Set up all al your equipment, tonight. Make sure your Vitamix is clean , and ready to go. Make sure you have all of your "ingredients" in the refrigerator: Orange juice, milk, yogurt, frozen mixed fruits, frozen mixed vegetables, frozen spinach, frozen berries... Ideally , you will also have: Ground flax meal, whey or egg-white protein powder, a banana and an orange all ready to peel! In the morning, if all of this is ready, it is so easy to get into the routine of : ADDING all of the ingredients by the fridge, then progressing over to the counter and adding in the flax meal and protein, and then peeling the orange and banana an
