| Author | Topic: (banana) fruit shakes from the blender / mixer? |
| MxPx 10-05-2002 08:24 PM | I have been having a banana/kiwi/grape shake with 3 eggs ever day for about 10 days. I then read today that mixing fruit in a blender can cause acne especailly bananas. Is this true. |
| Wai 10-06-2002 01:24 PM | quote:Yes, unfortunately that can cause acne too. The only juices that are safe are those from a juice extractor, or pressed juices of course. BTW; you are not consuming whole raw eggs, but only the yolks, right? Also, you should not blend kiwis, because the small pips contain mild toxins (they taste bitter when released, as in the shake). Grapes that contain pips should not be blended / mixed either, for the same reason. |
| MxPx 10-06-2002 02:12 PM | yea...i only consume the yolks, except I eat the bag also. Is it really that bad to eat the bag. I'ts kinda a pain to drain them out each time but if it causes acne i guess i have no choice. |
| Wai 10-06-2002 02:50 PM | You may, in time, start to dislike eating the yolks if you consume the bags/sacks too (a natural reaction to the enzyminhibitors presnt in the sack/bag). Also, it may impair your digestion a bit, so it is better to drain them. |
