Two posts in one day.

After my initial post, I went to the Juice Co. and ordered a Super Juice.  Then I went to Campbell's Nutrition and bought up some organic vegetables.

I didn't buy a huge amount because I always seem to be throwing slimy vegetables out.  I decided "less is more."  I'd try to use up what I bought and then go back for more.  I've been told that a healthy food diet means more trips to the store.  You cannot stock up on raw fruits and vegetables.  Also, if you make your own food, it doesn't keep for long.  It is not full of preservatives and things to make it last.  I guess that is good.  I stock up so much that I throw away so much food.

I bought carrots and cucumber and parsley and cilantro and apples.  That's it.  Juice, juice, juice.

I'm also drinking a big glass of Vitamin C and Magnesium.  I purchased bulk Vitamin C and also a magnesium supplement called Calm.  I put a heaping teaspoon of C (5000 mg) and two heaping teaspoons of Calm.  It becomes effervescent so it mixes the Vitamin C (which is so sour by itself.)  I figure that's a good elixir.  Also much to my disbelief, my onc actually told me he had read some studies which say Vitamin C is a good supplement to help combat cancer!!  (A miracle!!  He has NEVER been one to endorse or even allow alternative meds.  He thinks I am strong willed (which I am) and just laughs at my tenacity.)

I also had a sandwich from Campbell's.  An earthy bread with avocado and cheese.  Tasted like lemon juice, too.  Their sandwiches are delish..

Tomorrow the Juicer comes out and I leave it out.  Yay to the health benefits of pure juice!

Now the question is.  Should I try to grow my own wheatgrass?
