I wonder if all the Hype about it is true? The best combo is a head (or stalk) of Celery, and a half bag of Mixed Greens. Now that's a nice 'buzz'....WY Re: palatable juice, low glycemic index

Date: April 27, 2010 11:03PM I have been digging a combo of Granny Smith apples, carrots, celery, and ginger. The sour flavor and low-sugar content of the apples blends bootifully with the ultra sweet carrots. Re: palatable juice, low glycemic index

Date: April 28, 2010 07:07AM i should have been more explicit in stating that
i am interested in how people make their juices more palatable WITHOUT putting in any fruits or carrots that was what i was really trying to get at because the apples are feeling too sugary for me same with the carrots i don't care if everyone else is fine with the apples and carrots ( good for them) just want to know if anyone else has drummed up other alternatives Re: palatable juice, low glycemic index

Date: April 28, 2010 10:20PM John Kohler typically adds an apple or pear (but no other fruit) along with a 1/4 limit for leafy greens (kale, collards, etc) using celery, cucumber and maybe a little lemon for his juice. I'd say experiment.

I take it beet juice is out for you? It's in every batch of my morning smoothie. Non-sweet fruits such as cucumber, tomato, make great additions. Also, squash, yams, and non-cruciferous leafy greens like romaine lettuce and cabbage. Paul Re: palatable juice, low glycemic index

Date: May 01, 2010 03:58PM Hi mama cass
what a great idea to use cucumber as a base i like your combo of cuke celery and romaine very nice 
i was using mostly celery to even out the bitterness but now i'll put a heaping bit of cukes and romaine too Paul, thanks for your postings i think i'll experiment with yam and squash ( i think i may have juiced them once?) thanks for reminding me about the cabbage beautiful sulfur content seems kind of strange for me to juice yam and squash since they are tuber but hey... why not? i think there were some threads on juicing tubers here or there prior have any other information concerning tuberiferous juice? benefits... things to keep an eye on... what's so good about it etc.?
