Should I Feel Sick?

Hey gang, I just made two juices: one w/ chard, kale, carrot, and apple.

The other w/ cucumber, celery, cilantro, dill, basil stems, rosemary, ginger, apple, lime, and green grapes.

They both taste fine and I only had a few sips of each, but now I feel sort of queasy and shaky (a mild version of that feeling you get before you faint). Did I juice something I wasn’t supposed to or do you think my body just isn’t used to this density of nutrients?

All love, ~Adria

sleeknraw – I think it was the herbs in the second one that did me in. I had already added half the cilantro before I realized it wasn’t parsley. (I originally wanted a cucumber/parsley/lime juice.) I kept adding things trying to come up with complementary flavors… and just got weirdness. Then sickness.

Zooey – I’ve been wonky for quite some time, but in this particular instance, no, I was not exercising. Unless you count standing as exercise.

Thanks to everyone for your thoughts and commiseration!
