As many as you want, really.
Bananas are nature's bread; they are the perfect base for any raw food diet. You cannot overeat on bananas.

there's information on other boards of banana's containing lectins. should this cause concern for us Wai? for digestion or any other reason?

No. Eating bananas cannot cause acne, even if you would eat bananas only, as long as they are not juiced in a mixer / blender. (or fried etc., of course)

how else are we to add it to the juice then, if we cant put them in a blender? smash them down with a fork?

what i usually do is after im done juicing my oranges, ill take a tiny bit of the juice and put it in the blender along with 1 banana. ill blend it for like 7 seconds and then add it back into my 2 liters of juice. then ill just shake it around. thats it.

i know you always said we can add bananas for a creamier texture but how might you suggest we do it? im confused.

thanks

You can use a juice extractor, though that wount supply you with that much juice, since bananas don't contain much water (74%).
You don't NEED to juice them, they are perfectly complementary to fresh juices (from other fruits).

THAT can still cause acne...

That advise was not meant for people that are on the Acne Sample Diet...
