Juicing


Guest cassidy

I have been reading about digestive enzymes and really trying to eat well and heal. I came across juicing and it seems like a great way to get lots of vitamins and nutrients. I just bought a refurbished juicer on amazon and I can't wait to give it a try. Does anyone do this? Anyone have any good recipes?

I don't at the moment, but only because I'm not yet willing to invest in a juicer. (There are higher priority items on my list. ;-) ) But I do often make 'juices' out of whole fruits. Kinda like a smoothie, but just fruit. Had one this morning that was a banana, two oranges, a pound of strawberres, and some coconut. Just used a blender, but it's definitely a thicker texture than juicing. I'm torn with juicing, because I don't want to throw away the bit of the fruit that has all the fiber. I'll have to come up with something to do with it. ;-)

I have a juicer and used to LOVE my fresh juices, but haven't used it in a while. But, I just read on here yeterday on a thread about - memory problems or something? - I CAN'T REMEMBER - - :huh: that carrot, apple and grape would help restore our brains.....I immediately ran to store to stock up on carrots and apples. Also peel and put in fresh ginger and lemon. I used to do this, it's delicious! VERY healthy, probably esp. for Celiacs as it's mainline nutrients, right?

Good luck, let us know of anything wonderful you come up with!

Hi Cassidy . . .

Purchased a juicer (Breville) at least a month ago and LOVE the healthy feeling I get when drinking a glass of fresh vegetable juice! I always add an 1/2 apple for sweetness, but other than that only use vegetables, i.e. clove of garlic, a couple of green onions and whatever else I have on hand; cucumbers, celery, carrots, kale, spinach, beets, tomato, etc. I've never been a big vegetable eater; so juicing for me personally is a lifesaver!! Note #1: I started out washing the juicer painstakingly daily, but now rinse the juicer w/ very hot water immediately after I use it, and then wash once a week in the dishwasher. Note #2: Try not to drink the juice too fast, but savor it -- almost like drinking a glass of wine. I highly recommend JUICING!!!!! And even though my juicer was expensive; it is worth every penny and will last me for years.

I have felt so miserable and can't seem to get my health back lately. I was just thinking today that I want to buy a juicer and start juicing. I have talked about it on and off for a few years and now I think it is time. What brand do you have Dianna? Also where do you get your recipes and veges from?"

My juicer is a Breville; it cost $300; sounds like a lot, but it will last me a lifetime. You can search for recipes on the internet. I tried following recipes at first, but now I just throw whatever together, and always add 1/2 an apple for sweetness. Whenever I drink fresh vegetable juice (at least once a day) . . . it feels likes sunshine entering my body and healing me from the inside out.

You don't throw out the pulp unless you want to. Veggie pulp is great added to soup stock or even mixed into stir fry. The fruit pulp is (depending on the juicer) quite dry - you can add a little juice back in and eat it like applesauce, add seeds and nuts etc. Also you can add it to homemade yogurt.

We have an Omega 8005 here and it's a beauty. I bought it online and got it for $220 including shipping. It is the newest in the Omega line - single gear - very quite with no vibration and cleans up in minutes. I posted Dr. Mercola's review in an earlier posted.Claire

I just bought a juicer last week and tried it for the first time this weekend. I read that you should start with carrot and apple juice to get used to the taste.

I really liked it and I felt really healthy BUT cleaning the darn thing was such a mission. Not sure if I could be bothered to use it every day. :blink:

Is it necessary to peel everything? And how long does the juice last, do you have to drink it straight away?

Thanks!

Thank you for all the info.

I started with an inexpensive one so I'm not wasting a lot of money if I don't like it. I got the Waring JE 328, the review said it is easy to clean and does a great job. I bought a refurbished one and the reviews on that we good too. It was only $28.

I make omelettes every morning and I put spinach in them. I was thinking I could save the pulp and put that in the omelettes so I'm getting fiber also. I also thought of putting protein powder in with the juice to make a healthy meal.

My family juices something everyday. One good trick with the left over pulp is to put it in homemade breads or muffins. It adds flavour and it's good for ya.

I just got a juicer a few days ago and so far I looove it! I've made apple cucumber juice, orange carrot and this morning I made some sort of apple, celery, carrot, orange, ginger combo. Yum!

I am not a morning person but I somehow managed to make the juice and clean the thing in the few minutes I had before leaving for work this morning. It's really pretty easy and so good - and energizing :) ! I'm curious to find out about people's juice recipes as well. I'll also have to get creative when it comes to all the pulp. Hate to throw it all out, and I just don't know if I can bake *that* many muffins :)

I've juiced off and on for years. If you're hypoglycemic be careful about drinking a lot of carrot juice. I liked what Tiffany said about the fruit juiced in the blender and getting the fiber to slow down the digestion.. But a juicer is good for spinach/celery/apple or carrot to sweeten it. Those green vegetables can really cleanse you. Cabbage juice has been known to heal stomach ulcers but be careful because it can cause gas. There are many good books about all the healing qualities of vegetables. It would be worth buying one. I remember ginger helps with nausea and cramping. Asparagus helps to neutralize an acid stomach so does green beans. Berries are all high in Vit. C and flavonoids that are so good in so many ways and by juicing them you can get the therapeutic benefits because you can't eat as many as you can drink and the fiber can sometimes cause you to not assimilate the vitamins.

That's about all I remember off hand, its been awhile since I've juiced.

      I am new here, I have been diagnosed with Microscopic Colitis (Lymphatic) years ago and have been gluten-free, DF since, but I still can have occasional bouts of diarrhea (still trying to figure that out).  I also have MS, Hypothyroid, Arthritis, Reynaud's and my rosacea has been acting up lately.  What treatment is suggested to help with rosacea?  I would like to know too if there is a test for celiac if you have been gluten-free?   Thank you, Barb

      Well, that's interesting. I am lactose intolerant and have been managing that for years. I'd be interested in seeing if that changes once I feel better from not eating gluten (one thing at a time for now, though). Helpful to hear about the avenin. I will do some digging and pose that to the dietitian. Grateful for your feedback.

      Recently my daughter ate in nandos harlow I rang in advance to speak about the celiac protocals and learned that childs portion chicken nandinos is cooked on the same grill as garlic bread even if they are celiac! Even if you clean it this is not good practise and will be making many children ill. I learnt adults butterfly chicken cooked on a grill purely for chicken.  This is fine and what we ordered however nandos need to take note of your practises for the safety of celiac children. my daughter has been ill from their nandinos chicken before and i emailed head office and they wouldnt accept responsibility

      I agree with @RMJ, you have multiple positive tests so celiac disease is likely.  This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease.
