Guest guest Posted December 8, 2004 Report Share Posted December 8, 2004 Gee, one of my favorite combos is celery-apple juice, somtimes beet- celery-apple juice. You can reduce the sweet content by using tart apples like a Granny . I think if you drink the juice, even a veggie-fruit combo, and wait 30 minutes before you eat anything the digestion rate is not an issue. The thing about juices is there is not much to digest, no fiber, just the juice and vitamins. That's what makes them so nutritious. R. > > It's very bad for the digestion to mix fruits & veggies together..specially some more than others. They digest at different rates for one thing. Fruits are more cleansing & purgative. Veggies are more healing & soothing. They should be juiced & drunk separately for better assimilation, effectiveness & digestion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 8, 2004 Report Share Posted December 8, 2004 do you feel better drinking them in general? I ordered the new Jack lalaine and he says like with cantaloupe, grind everything including the rind.

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2004 Report Share Posted December 8, 2004 Well do what you will then. I have no recipes for fruits & veggies mixed together for juicing tho.

I ordered the new Jack lalaine and he says like with cantaloupe, grind everything including the rind. Sometimes I feel better drinking them, like before I get my period when I have no appetite. I have found them to be grounding and clearing at times. For me, I have to be careful about the idea of grinding everything up because I am pretty sensitive to molds. The juicer I have separates the pulp from the juice. It is hard in my head to think of them as food though--not as satisfying as chewing on something, and always a little cold which is hard to take here in MA. R.

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2004 Report Share Posted December 8, 2004 Oh yes absolutely!!! I always felt better after drinking juice...more energy, better skin/complexion, less tired, better digestion, thinking clearer. Yes most of the vitamins/minerals are in the skin, rinds or outer coverings of veggies & fruits. I used to juice & drink watermelon, rind & all for alkanalizing/healing. It's wonderful. Best to buy organic produce tho so as not get tons more pesticides & chemicals from the fertilizers into our systems along with the large juice quantities too tho. But that's too expensive. Jack LaLanne, when he was a young guy & on tv in my 20s & 30s I'd watch him on tv & do exercises with him & follow his food plans. His juicers are supposed to be very good...top of the line I heard...or so he says From: Jamy do you feel better drinking them in general?

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2004 Report Share Posted December 8, 2004 I think any recipes that you have that add iron and oxygen, would be very grateful to get. I only eat veggies when they are cooked to death! Re: Re: Juicers Oh yes absolutely!!!

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2004 Report Share Posted December 8, 2004 Let me know how you like this juicer. I bought one for myself (from my hubby ) for Christmas, so I haven't used it yet. I found it on sale at Kohl's for $100 and then they always have 15-20% off coupons. That is a good deal.

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2004 Report Share Posted December 8, 2004 I wish I would get it tomorrow so I could shop and start this weekend Re: Juicers Gee, one of my favorite combos is celery-apple juice, somtimes beet- celery-apple juice.

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2004 Report Share Posted December 8, 2004 Kohls.com is having a sale today and they have one juicer for $44.99. It is a Juiceman Jr and it looked pretty nice in the store. Just wanted to pass it along in case anyone wanted to get one. Re: Juicers I just use mostly an equal amount of carrots to 1 whole bunch of celery with a whole bunch of parsley. This tastes pretty good to me when served at room temperature if not more than a day old. The carrot juice starts coagulating & getting sour & spoiled after 2 days tho...so drink it the first day if possible. For extra greens & added iron & minerals plus oxygen one could add a l/2 bunch of spinach too. Doesn't taste too bad. I've tried mostly greens like spinach with kale or chard for their oxygen/alkaline & calcium content but it's just too bitter...yuk!!! I have to have carrots in it to offset that or just can't drink it at all. Tho they say not to drink too much carrot juice because it's got more sugar in it. But it's very healing anyway, loaded with beta carotene/vitamin A in a non-toxic form. Adding some cabbage is good for digestion & keeps ulcers away. Cabbage juice isn't bitter either. Some people like the bitter tastes like in mustard greens or dandelion greens but I hate it. From: Tigger Any juicing recipes... I'd be interested in hearing some.

Guest guest Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 I always drink my juices freshly juiced to get the benefit of the enzymes. Carrot juice is recommended in the Hallelujah diet (www.hacres.com <http://www.hacres.com/> ) and I juice enough carrots, one large piece of celery, and half of a large Granny apple, or a small Granny apple, to make a total of 8 oz. If you must avoid too much sugar, juice half as much and add water to make up the difference. No, I'm not following the Hallelujah diet currently, but I did in the past. It helped a lot. I eat a lot of salads and always include spinach leaves. I love them. And when my folic acid was tested, it was at the top of the range. I feel it was due to the daily salads. Thanks, Caroline, and everyone for these wonderful hints. I look forward to all of your information! in Va.
