Clent Manich and the benefits of Green Smoothies

Before I attended the retreat, I already understood the impact green smoothies can have on your life. From January 2008 to 2009 I incorporated green smoothies as a main course to my 100% raw food lifestyle. Remarkably I was able to release 226 Lbs in 12 Months and reverse type 2 Diabetes. You can read about my story in Green Smoothie Revolution. In January 2009, I slipped from my exercise routine and started overeating. While my diet was still raw I ate a lot of nuts, seeds, sea salt and olive oil dressings. Slowly, I gained back 50-60 Lbs. I became so shaken by my failure to maintain my desired weight that eventually I developed depression. Victoria Boutenko suggested I attend the Joy for Life Retreat. Victoria is my Savior!

The information shared by the Boutenko family intensified my appreciation for variety of flavors and changed my view of how easy and simplistic a Raw food lifestyle can be. I learned valuable updated information about nutrient density and advanced nutrition. Also, how to find my Wild Greens for Free!

The Work of Byron Katie, facilitated by Tom Compton, truly allowed me to manage the deepest roots of my resent depression. The relaxing environment and early morning Yoga re-energized my body. Living on Green Smoothies at the retreat, allowed my body to release 14 Lbs in just that week and 6 more pounds over the past three weeks since. That's 20 Lbs released in one month! WOW!!! I feel like I am back on track!

Best of all I was able to make many new and valuable friends from all over the world. It was amazing to see everyone become younger in appearance right before my eyes, all within a week. There are so many degenerative diseases running rampant throughout the western civilization and now, the whole world. I believe basic nutrition is to blame. Everyone in our group seemed to have one or more of these challenges. By the end of the week, most of the group had magical results, with their conditions either easing, or even reversing! Nobody went home disappointed.

We all had so much fun and memories to last a lifetime! I can't wait to attend the next Joy for Life Retreat this coming Jan 2010. My wife is also excited to join me!

Thank You Raw Family! The Joy for Life Retreat, Is Truly and Positively Life Changing

Your Friend For Life,
