    That reminds me of when I went to the health food store to get some protien powder. I'm hypoglycemic and the protein helps. Anyway she talked me into trying this green powder that smelled like fish food. She gave me a free sample in a baggie. I got about a mile down the road and pulled over and got it out of the car it smelled so bad, and she wanted me to make a smoothie of bananas orange juice and this dried fish guts, no way I could have put that stuff in my mouth.

They overpower the spinach so it's like drinking a v8.
    Before I read the above comment I was going to suggest putting banana in so it makes it taste and probably smell better. I find bananas can mask a lot!!!

    Poor guy. LOL LOL :cry: :cry:

    Don't give up. There are so many ways to make them taste good. Try adding a little Stevia. I love mine. I have one almost everyday! :)

    As much as I make very healthy food and drinks for myself and my family...I think I would much rather have those ingedients in a salad than a drink :)
    I love juicing... and fruit smoothies...but that smoothie recipe sounds less than desirable! LOL!

A friend that had a son who went to Dr Burzynski's clinic in Houston Texas and they told his mom to juice too. Jason is doing excellent, tumor gone and no chemo or radiation. She said she had a lot of friends that had gone through chemo but wouldn't drink a smoothie like this. :? hmmmm. please let me know what you juice and if you follow any specific plan. You know you are one in a million!!!
    thanks for the encouragement. P.S. I got out of the boat :thumbup:
