| Author | Topic: Replace OJ with Apple-Juice? |
| Schmolch 10-22-2002 03:14 AM | I would like to try to replace my daily OrangeJuice (3 liters and more) with AppleJuice, because - The Oranges have to travel a long distance (from america / africa / spain to germany) which requires a tremendous amount of energy and natural resources - The Oranges are probably harvested with child labor / underpaid labor - The Oranges are treated with preservatives and if only half of what you say, Wai, is true we all live in a sad world full of shit and im not willing to trust those people. Organic Apples are available everywhere in germay. They are cheap, they are really organic, and there's no harm done to anyone or anything. Ive never eaten lots of apples so it might be possible that i even dont like them enough to drink that much of applejuice. I would have to buy a juicer for $150 that is able to juice entire apples. Is it possible? Is there anything i should know? Should i do any kind of adjustements to my diet? Im still trying to do your sample diet (since exactly 2 months now). Schmolch |

Make sure to eat other fruits too, some raw nuts and some fresh raw animal food. quote:Submit your diet to the nutrient calculator (the whole apples; it doesn't contain apple juice values) and check whether it is too low in a certain nutrient. |
