Dear GetWell Friends! VITA-MIX puts out an 182 page Recipe Book, mostly beverages, also some baby foods, batters, desserts, dips, salsas, spreads, syrups, gourmet butters, ice cream and frozen treats, sauces and salad dressings, soups, and vegetarian recipes, too! Most of these recipes can be Hygienized according to the "Secrets" in the following article. In this page and the next 2, I have Hygienized a sampling of these recipes for your use and enjoyment. Hygienic Teachers, throughout history have taught "The Ideal Diet" to be "whole, raw & plant" food. The VITA-MIX People are closely aligned with our Ideal Diet, despite their offering SAD recipes to the general public. The VITA-MIX People fully recognize the value of plant food and raw food. They just like to take the whole food and give it a whirl!
