Feeling weird after a juice

[Zipfelmuetze]

I've been juicing with fruits and veggies like carrot, celery, cucumber, cantaloupe, strawberry, banana, and other extremely yummy ones.

Today I tried a combination of cucumber, celery, carrot, cilantro, and garlic.
I didn't mind the taste, but my stomach felt weird. It wasn't quite a stomach ache but it felt funny. My head also felt like it wanted to bring on a headache, but didn't quite reach that point. I'm wondering if it was the garlic? Does this mean I should avoid using garlic? I typically don't eat raw garlic.

Make the same combination without the garlic and see.

It's a pretty common intolerance, from what I understand. I know that I can't handle garlic, raw or otherwise.

I agree, try it without and see what happens.

Yeah, I didn't catch that. How did you juice the bananas? How'd that work for you?

Well, you can see squirrel sleeps a lot. Lucky eagles are around... hoping they don't see squirrel sleeping though. :cool:

but squirrels are tasty crunchy snacks... except that you are in luck... this eagle is vegan! ;) (kinda like the shark in finding nemo!)

Oops yeah sorry, I blend the banana with juice.
Ah yeah I read the liver detox section. A bit of discomfort is normal then? I suppose it makes sense since that body will be working hard to cleanse.

Ummmm, uh, yeah. I buried 'em 'round here somewhere. C'mon down! :p

[Aleesha Sattva]

On my way!

[Revvell]

You do know it's raining here and the nuts are buried in the yard? *giggles* You're gonna have some very wet feathers. :D

[Aleesha Sattva]

You could have drank it too quickly, I feel that way when I drink my juices to fast.

Could be garlic... I know never to eat raw garlic again (at least for me).

I had heard it was good for cleansing and yeah I'm sure it is, but it's really bad on digestion. I was just eating them to "cleanse" myself, little did I know I realized what was making me feel worse was raw garlic...

I'm just mad that I didn't realize it sooner. I stopped eating raw garlic and am feeling better. I assume what happened is the garlic sure it cleansed me of harmful bacteria... but also whipped all the good bacteria too! And even though I was taking probiotics it didn't seem to replenish it fast enough or at the same rate that the raw garlic was destroying every thing.

I would suggest to just not take garlic or onions raw. That's just my opinion.

considering you can't seem to eat much (see link (http://www.rawfoodtalk.com/showthread.php?t=62361))... i wouldn't take 'don't eat garlic' too seriously
