    ........ sorry about this but I have to correct you on a couple of things here having actually done the Juice Only Plans myself as opposed to just ....... well ..... guessing :(

    One of the benefits to juicing is getting way more fruit/vegetable nutrients than you would ever consume just by eating.

    Also ........ you will feel the benefits much more profoundly if you do a Juice Only Plan for minimum of 5-7 days.

    Way more fruit and vegetable nutrients while missing out on countless other essential nutrients. It makes no sense whatsoever to recommend a juice only diet. Juices can form a great part of your diet but shouldn't be the only thing you are consuming.

    Also I don't appreciate the tone of condescension in your post. It's just plain rude and ignorant to act like such a know-it all, you probably aren't nearly as clever or witty as you think you are.

    Which nutrients are missing exactly?

    I, by no means, "know-it-all" ....... I can however, quite cofidently, say that I probably know about Juicing than you do

    If you don't know what nutrients are missing when consuming a diet based soley on fruits and vegetables you probably shouldn't be giving nutritional advice. Also you won't be able to get a significant enough amount of fat or protein from fruit and vegetables in order to constitute a healthy diet.

    Vegetables/Fruits contain fat and protein :rolleyes:

    Not too worried about naturally occurring sugar ........ it's the refined processed sugar that I avoid

    Minuscule amounts- if you believe you are getting all the fat and protein you need from juice you really have been brainwashed.

    You should be. Eating / juicing loads of fruit is not as beneficial as some believe it to be.

    I never said there were any essential nutrients missing from a Juice Only Plan ........ you said that.

    Why wouldn't you be able to get enough fat or protein from Juicing fruit and vegetables?

    Minuscule amounts? Really?? Have you ever actually looked at the list of ingredients that goes into a Juice Only Plan and what those ingredients/amounts actually contain nutritionally?? No? Well I have .........

    Here's a little fact for you ......... a human can live on and survive healthily on avocados alone, it contains all the essential nutrition that humans need to live.

    Yes fruit and veg! Unless your blending and juicing meat you are not eating enough fat and protein!

    I'm starting a 3 day then building up to a 7 day and then a 30 day avocado plan !

    Really?
    Avocados have even made it into the Guinness book of world records as the most nutritious fruits in the world.
    They contain everything the human body requires nutritionally and you could live exclusively on them.
    They contain vitamins, minerals, protein, carbohydrates, water and EFA’s – essential fatty acids.
    These EFA’s are imperative to your diet and they actually help to maintain a healthy weight as these good fats help to regulate your appetite.

    Avocados contain very little iron and you would have to eat 16+ a day to get your iron needs. They contain very little calcium and you would have to consume 20+ a day to satisfy your calcium needs. You would have to eat at least 20 to get your protein needs as an extremely inactive person and closer to 40 if you are active in any way at all. If you were to eat 20 avocados a day you would be consuming about 6000 calories a day. So em, yeah, you are wrong.

    I suppose the Guinness Book Of World Records is wrong, sure what would they know ......... anyway that's where juicing comes in ........

    Iron? Spinach!
    Calcium? Broccoli!
    Calories? This is exactly why you should never be on a calorie controlled diet as natural fats found in avocado are all good fats that the body requires, unlike the fats found in a mars bar that the body never needs!

    I wouldn't. It's delusional. Juice plans are a very recent phenomenon. Did not exist until very recently. Marketing is clever.

    We are talking about nutrition not electronics. Each and every post adds to your idiocy.
