Date: January 15, 2007 11:35PM does anyone know how to figure for calorie chaanges when you juice? I want to juice some kale, apple, lemon, and celery and am wondering how many calories I'll cut out by doing this....oddly, I'm not wanting to lose many-I've already drastically reduced my caloric intake.
sarah I know some of you don't agree with juicing...that's not my question. I'm just wondering about the calories. Re: calories and juicing.

Date: January 16, 2007 12:02AM well-i don't know but what-a celery stalk has what-15 calories. i don't know.i would figure it that way .a medium apple has maybe 80 cals.so everything i put thru the juicer i would add each with a calorie guide and then maybe take a smidge off for the fact that the fiber is not there anymore.of course.i am new to this stuff but that is my thoughts.taylor Re: calories and juicing.

Date: January 16, 2007 12:44AM well, I'm thinking....if everything I run through my juicer adds up to say 300 calories before I run it, are all the cals in the fiber or not? By juicing would I bring my cals down to 250 or 100...it's a difference when I'm trying to keep up the cals, but not go overboard on them, you know?

Date: January 16, 2007 01:11AM Might be different for different types of foods. I just went to [www.nutritiondata.com] and found out that 100g of oranges gives you 47 calories and 100g of orange juice gives you 45 calories. But using this method, you've got to take into account that you would need a lot more than 100g of oranges to give you 100g of juice.

Date: January 16, 2007 01:28AM I wouldn't look into the calorie thing.
the more green juice you drink, the more cleansed your body will be, you don't have to worry about calories when your'e raw. The universe has already taken care of that, and made food for us, that is just perfect for our bodies!!! Look out!! This countries nutrition fact labels are extremely warped; I've even heard a friend of mine once say "Oh wow, I cannot eat this almond butter, it has WAY too much fat, I think I'd rather get a slice of pizza around the corner instead." Almond butter has 16 grams of fat per serving, but actually makes you loose weight! Cooked calories are not the same as raw calories. Same goes with fats. So drink away baby, and your skin will begin to glow! -Cory Edited 2 time(s). Last edit at 01/16/2007 01:33AM by Cmh9783. Re: calories and juicing.

Date: January 16, 2007 03:11AM Each food in the nutritional database has the calories/grams from fiber. Just remove the fiber portion from your calculation. Re: calories and juicing.

Date: January 16, 2007 01:51PM i NEVER consider calories in the raw food i eat. never. it doesn't matter to me.
if you're doing this because you want to lose weight, all i can say is that i went from an 18/20 to a size 6 in 7 months without dieting, just by keeping my raw consumption level up around 85-95%. keep it simple and don't sweat the details is my advice, mama -- just keep including more of the live foods that make you feel great (whether juiced or not), and you're bound to head in the direction of whatever your health goals are.

Date: January 16, 2007 08:21PM fruit juices are obviously going to have a lot more calories than greens...if you're juicing greens, it's going to be very minimal.
(off topic but responding to the other posts: if you're trying to loose weight, it doesn't matter if it's raw or not. A person has to burn more calories than taken in...) Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
