Juice Man, Juice Plus, Juicing for life, Juicing juicing everyone is juicing....
or are they?
Are you?
I want to know if you do, why you do, and what are your favorite recipes... Do you just do fruit, or are you a vegie juicer?
If you don't juice,,,, why not? Is it that you have no interest, or rather that you're wondering what on earth I am talking about?

My doctor just told me to start juicing, so I pulled my juicer up from the basement and dusted it off so to speak... but now what? I really haven't a clue...
What about YOU ?

I don't use a juicer, but I think that if I did I would probably mix strawberries with pretty much every type of fruit possible and that is probably what my main diet would be made up of.

Also, I hate those commercials that have people trying to push a watermelon through their juicers and other fruits that are obviously too big. Do people really do this?

I don't know if they really push watermelons that are too big through theirs. I have added whole lemons and stuff. but well, they were cut into quarters to fit.

Never have, but am very interested. I need to loose some weight and i think this is a great idea. Very Healthy.

Yes weight loss. My doctor says it's one of the best ways to get in all my vitamins from food. He thinks that you can never eat enough salad, so why not juice it and drink it up... While this sounds great, it's recipes... He hasn't any of those to share ha ha

I am a big juicing fan and have several books by Jason Vale the Juicemaster who is from the UK. You can search for his books on ebay or amazon or try his website. www.juicemaster.com

I highly recommend his books and the recipes which I have tried out, they all taste delicious because they have a good base of either apple, carrot or pineapple or a combination of each to which you then juice vegetables as well and it tastes great. If I had to pick on favourite recipe it would be the Turbo Charge Smoothie from his book Turbo Charge your Life in 14 days. Or the JM complete which is in his book The Ultimate Fast food.

Thanks so much! I really appreciate your giving me a link, and the name of the author! How generous to even share your favorite recipes! This is sort of new to me, and I am excited to learn... It's just that there is SO much to learn!


myLot reputation of 94/100. organiclady35 (6026)  5 years ago

I am glad to be of help to you. The thing about the Juicemaster recipes is that they do taste good as there is the right combination of veggies and fruits.

Explain to me why I would want to juice. We take something perfectly healthy - fruit - we remove the fiber which is a big part of what makesfruit so good and then we drink the liquid.

Now if oyu are a diabetic - that glucose just rushes into the blood streak with out the benefit of the fbier to flow it down/

Fruit juice is not filling, meaning you intake more calories.

Oh, I don't juice - did you get that idea.


myLot reputation of 85/100. keepinghome (112)   ranked 588 out of 8,637 in cooking  5 years ago

:) I enjoy your comments... My doctor really isn't a fan of me fruit juicing... Though if I do, he's told me to add back the pulp...? I guess because you can get so many of the essential oils out of the peals, into your juice! Its supposed to be fabulous.
But from what I understand, juicing is best if you are doing vegies. Greeens, kale, collard, parsley, spinach, etc, with only a little fruit to cut the flavor... Like I said, I am a TOTAL novice, but It seems I just can not eat enough of my vegies (though I eat them at nearly every meal), My Doctor is all about living vitamins, and gettin ya off of vitamin pills if possible and on to the Living vitamins... anyway i liked the point you maid about glucose to the blood stream... I hope I answered your question about why some juice... I don't know completely why, but this is what I know so far...
Thanks again for your response.
