Juicing has become the rage in the so-called health movement especially green juice on the high fat raw vegan scene, but is drinking juice really that healthy? Are there ramifications to stepping away from whole foods since juice really cannot be classified as a whole food? What are the pros and cons to juicing and should we, as aspirants to better health, adopt this practice?
There’s been a lot of fruit festival controversy in the last few months and controversy in the raw food movement in general. People are fighting and bickering over avocados and potatoes. And what of it? How do we decide where to draw the line? How do we decide what to do for ourselves? Should we even be splitting hairs in this way which is splitting the community? Can’t we just all get along or is this a necessary part of our evolution? I offer some opinions on these points.
