There are some saved recipes from others that I use and then there's always creating your own. Here's a good website that may help. I don't know how accurate it is, but it's a start. http://juicerecipes.com/

First, great question. Juicing is great for the body. It delivers essential nutrients into your bloodstream quickly without the body having to digest the food and you get more nutrients from juicing than you would if you ate the whole food.

Same here. I've used juices in the database, but I know they aren't exact, because my recipes vary. It's a good start though and close enough. I'm going to undertake creating my own sometime. I love the Juicing Bible. You can get it on Amazon and it has lots of good information as well as recipes for smoothies. Happy…

Salads are good for that. If you're juice fasting also no, you don't want fiber. The purpose of juice fasting is to give your digestive…

Yes I never thought I'd like vegetable (green) juice, but they are delicious. There are lots of good websites to be found. Try www.rebootwithjoe.com and as one said, watch his movie. It's entertaining and inspiring. Here's one of my favorite recipes: Can't be Beet 2 to 3 carrots 1/2 cucumber 1/2 beet with greens As for…

There are lots of recipes to choose from. I juice more vegetables than fruit. Too much pure fruit juice isn't good because it can spike your blood sugar. I dilute my fruit juice with purified water too and I juice probably 3 times as many vegetables as I do fruit. However, I almost always add an apple to my vegetable juice…
