I reverted the previous edit because it had terribe formatting and contained a large number of dubious assertions. In addition the style was unencyclopaedic. I'll try to comb through it and see what's recoverable, but it seems to all be taken from a diet book, so maybe none. WilyD 19:19, 20 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There were no quotes from the book, in fact that book inspired me to do more research on the matter, I've given credit due.

That really wasn't my concern - the formatting needed a little bit of work, but was okay - a lot of the personalisation needed to be taken out - for example, many readers of Wikipedia are not Americans, whilst the narrator assumed we were (I myself come from

Soviet Canuckistan). Moreover, as one of the central claims (that we can't use salt from table salt or processed foods) is false, I felt that the source was severely damaged - that it really needs another credible citation to put forward such claims, and should be phrased in a way that doesn't endorse the theories of Dr. What's-his-face. I'll try and put some work into it, see what can be salvaged and made to work. WilyD 02:07, 21 June 2006 (UTC)[reply

Botanically speaking anyway. I vote to remove the tomato juice link. Kidigus 20:30, 22 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"However, if you are more health-conscious, using a blender is preferred because you will be able to keep all of the fibers and nuturients from the vegetables."

This is a strange and unsupported assertion, and probably wrong. Fiber, sure, but nutrients? Arguable at best. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Facetious (talk • contribs) 19:32, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Reference nr 4 doesn't say anything about why this is so, and should be removed.
