  1. I was given a juicer and plan on using it mainly for health
    and not for taste.

    About all I can think to do with it is...juice carrots and
    beets and celery and drink the stuff as fast as possible, so
    as not to taste it. You can tell I'm not very creative with
    this stuff. Are there any good juiceable combinations
    (either for health or for taste) that I should be trying?

  4. Don't worry about the taste, your palette should change over
    time. At first I found beet juice was repulsive and tasted
    like soil, but when mixed with carrots it was palatable.
    Eventually I could drink raw beet juice without retching. I
    roughly did the Gerson diet for a few months and my skin
    turned orange with the carrot juice, so my friends nick
    named me 'beta carotene man.'

    Some juices I drink are :-

    (I start in the morning breakfast with added teaspoon of
    vitamin c powder and 1g of lysine)

    Tomato, Tomato Carrot, Carrot, Carrot Beet, Carrot Apple
    Beet, Carrot Orange. Orange, Orange Grapefruit Orange Lime.
    Pineapple, Pineapple Apple Carrot. Apple. Pineapple Orange,
    Celery, Pepper Celery, Pepper, Lettuce, Spinach <nasty stuff
    tend to mix it with sweeter things. Basically 'mix n taste.'
    Melon, Melon,Apple etc. you name it I've juiced it! Also if
    your juicer has a homogeniser, you could add some of the
    pulp - pineapple banana with pulp would be nice and chock
    with fibre.

    Juices contain lots of sugars - if I remember correctly 1
    pint of carrot juice contains 46g of carbohydrate, so you
    may put on some weight.

    I find that when I eat coconut I have more energy that just
    with juices alone. Juices contain a lot of fibre also which
    is good for the bowels.

    I also used Nat tools to 'estimate' the amount of nutrients
    I get in a juice, to see how I'm meeting near RDA. (The
    sweeter juices tend to be the ones with more fruits in them)
    Juicing can get very boring after a while, and I tend to
    lapse and eat rubbish like biscuits etc. Anyways I'm off to
    get a nice pint of cabbage juice 😉 Anth

    Just so you know, your MHA "friends" have nick-named you the
    "mastur-beta carotene man".

    Although not a proud "Juicer" owner (I have this rrational
    fear I might live to 118 years, 4 months), I do use a
    "Blender" (Oster by name).

    My favorite liquid recipe is as follows...

    12 oz. absolutely fresh strawberries 1 & 1/2 oz. Light Rum
    1/2 oz.fresh lime juice 1 heaping teaspoon sugar 4
    ice cubes

    Let the Blender rip & pour into tall, chilled glass. Sip
    through straw. Yum.

    Among serious juicers, the machine to get is the Champion
    juicer. They go for about $300 retail, $240 discount, and
    used on eBay about $100 (be sure to include shipping when
    calculating how much to bid -- they weigh about 25 lbs.).
    There's always lots of Champion juicers available on eBay,
    and lots of competition bidding for them.

    I've got one, and it's a mighty powerful machine. Anything
    less is a joke. Forget about blenders, unless you're not
    making juice very often and you're always using soft stuff
    like bananas and strawberries. Also, blenders are hard to
    clean compared to the Champion, which is a snap to clean.

    I actually don't make juice -- I make nut butters. The
    Champion does those quite well, too.

    I've heard that for wheat grass fanatics, the ideal machine
    is an even more expensive type -- the twin gear juicer. This
    is because the Champion doesn't deal quite so well with
    extremely fibrous material like wheat grass.

    Here's the web site for the company that makes the Champion:
    championjuicer.comindex.php

    A tip for anyone buying a used juicer -- many of the colors
    offered in the past have been discontinued. If you will need
    replacement parts, I'm not sure you can get any color except
    white. So you might look for a white one if you care about
    that. My juicer came with a broken part, and I couldn't get
    a replacement in its original color (yellow).
