My Juicy Side and How I Built This Site

Hi,

Thanks so much for visiting my site! Curious about who's behind the scenes here at all-about-juicing.com? Well, Here's the scoop. I live just outside Houston, Texas (USA).

It was probably about 10 years ago when I got really sick. I was working hard and a lot. But it was just like many people in the corporate world. I couldn’t figure out why I just felt terrible all day and no one else did (or so I thought). I would have several coffees a day, and many times it was a must to stop at starbucks on the way into work. I would literally shake if I didn’t get a cup.

Then, one day….I came across the topic of juicing. Not sure why, or even how. But I did. I just read about it as much as I could, through the internet and books. Then that led me to read about healthy diet’s, like veganism, and vegetarianism, and the raw foods lifestyle. I wished I had learned about it sooner. I was only 23 at the time; however, I knew inside that my diet had something to do with the way I felt.

So, I decided to buy a juicer.

We plugged it in and cut up some vegetables. We juiced our first glass of carrot, as I think it was the only produce we had around. It was amazing! And then we juiced apple. I thought “I can’t believe it’s not clear like in the store. What is so different about this? It’s almost more like apple cider.” It was so cool to me how such very little pulp came out, but so much juice. I did my research beforehand so I was confident that I did get a juicer that would provide me with a good quality juice.

Pretty soon I was juicing every day.

I loved to juice and wanted to go even further with my diet. I went cold turkey into a vegan diet, with mostly raw foods. Today, I’m a vegetarian. And I juice all the time.

While it's been a process to get my body back to health, I've taken a dramatic turn for the BEST, and I feel better today then I ever thought I would.

One other thing that changed my life is that in all my self-studies of health related things, I came across herbal medicine. It intrigued me. I took a few courses, got a few books, and learned a lot in a very quick period of time. I’m now an herbalist and the knowledge I have helps me to be able to treat myself with any health related condition I might have come up. It’s so wonderful to know how our bodies work and how to be able to help ourselves, without running to the doctor or being clueless as to why something might be happening.

There is so much to know and re-learn about a health. My American culture does not incorporate natural healing and healthy diets into living a full and healthy lifestyle. I didn’t want to be like that. And the more I learn, the more I want to learn.

That's why I built this site.

But they don’t know that changing their diet and lifestyle is the key.

For those that do, or soon will find this out, I have created this site. My desire is to give back to others the same way others gave information to me.

I hope you enjoy!

Please come back and visit often.

I'm always adding more pages with lots of info....

Thanks for visiting :)
