Juice Plus Complete

I am a huge fan of the Bio Chem Whey Protein powder and the 365 Whole Foods Whey powder. I prefer the vanilla flavor and you can literally just get a glass jar and add the serving size scoop with your rice, almond or soy milk and you get a healthy dose of protein (16 grams). As for the vitamins, read the labels as some of these powders have vitamins as well. I just take a high powered multi vitamin with the drink. The best thing about these powders is that they are have little to no sugar (sweetened with Stevia) and are really filling.

You could try the complete whole food health optimizer called vega. My family uses it as a subsitute for breakfast when running late. Some of the large health food stores carry it. But if not or if you live in a small town like me, you can check it out at sequelnaturals.com/vega

Debra, I agree with your comments about whole live foods. Unfortuneately, the doctors and various strong willed people, including a family member recommend Ensure etc. I'm doing my best to use veg and fruit but mom likes a standard american diet ( which did not prevent cancer!). im amazed at how many people bring by sweets! I hope to have a juicer soon.

I use the miessence probiotic super food InLiven, while this is not marketed as a food replacement, I find it works great in this way. It is certified organic, highest quality ingredients.

You can drink a teaspoon in a glass of apple juice, it is a whole super food, not isolated.

I also have customers who use it in this way.

You can read more on my site if you are interested:

another product I have used is from Dr. Ian Shillington, called Total Nutrition, also a whole food, not isolates. totally organic and he is committed to this.

you can check it out in his store: www.organicsolutionsstore.com.

If you are really interested in using whole fruits and veggies, try making green smoothie's. Just grab your blender, a handfull or two of greens (lettace, spinach or other) a couple of fruits (bannanas, oranges etc.) a cup or 2 of water and blend till smooth. All the nutrients of a meal in a easy to digest way. If you want more info on specific recipies head over to www.rawfamily.com There's also a video on the percentage of fruits to greens. I think it is 60 fruit and 40 greens. But you can check it out to be sure.

My family does not eat the way they do but the recipies are suprisingly good, that we use quite a bit of the info and recipies found there to incorporate in our way of eating.
