    Just kidding.

    Juicing is great but I tend to eat all of the things anyway. So hopefully someone else can help.

    I don't have a juicer, but have been to a juicing party (more like a class) and loved it! We did Kale (sp?), strawberries, sprouts. I don't have any exact recipes... but a lot of them I'm sure are found just by experimenting! Beats are supposed to be very detoxifying, but I think those would go over better in a food processor, rather than a juicer.

    Great topic, and... bump.

    if you study what's in your food and why you need it, you'll be more apt to stick with it. What I need isn't necessarily what you need. I have a hyper sensitive system and can't stomach meds or supplements. I get my nutrition from my food. Check out this cool site that will help you on your juicing journey!

    you may also like to know that the owner of Dole, David Murdock, is staying fit by juicing. This is actually what got me turned onto it and I love it!

    I juice! My current favourite recipe is carrots, celery and pineapple (for the sweetness). You can also try apple, beetroot & carrot. Be wary of celery leaves- they're incredibly bitter!
    Green leaves are the healthiest thing you can possibly consume, so try those out. Also look into green smoothies - they're amazing!

    I have some green juice everyday as a mid morning snack - I make it with kale, celery, cucumber, apple, ginger and lemon. I also make green smoothies in the blender with almond milk, protein powder, frozen berries, frozen banana and spinach. Both are very good! Give them a try!

    I make a green juice in the a.m. it's my source of vitamins:

    cucumber
    celery
    parsley
    spinach
    broccoli
    carrot
    red bell pepper
    apple for sweetness and should be the only fruit added w/vegetables & don't juice the seeds, they have arsenic and people have died from poisoning.

    I've also added a slice of ginger which counters and gas from broccoli, but the broccoli doesn't seem to bother me.
    On occasion I've also juiced beets in my juice to build up my iron.
