Hi, am wondering if any one knows of a good onion recipe. Like one with stuff in it to make it taste like onion soup. I am trying the juicing diet for 60 days and thought that sounded good … let me know.

Hi Lara,

The best juices for liver cleanse are: spinach, parsley, zucchini, kale, dandelion leaves and cucumbers as well as the beets and apple.
But 3 apples with a beet with the beet greens is a lot of sugar. I’d go with less apple (1 apple) and the rest spinach, kale, zucchini or cucumbers.

Hi Lisa,

Indeed, there can be some pretty awful combinations! I generally don’t like to mix fruits with vegetables because the outcome usually unpleasant on the taste buds. The one exception is apple which seems to work well with everything and is main fruit for sweetening up green veggies. I also find that mixing any kind of citrus fruit with vegetables results in something not so tasty! In fact I mostly prefer to keep citrus juices pure because they tend to clash a lot with other fruits and veggies, at least for my palate, lemon would be the main exception.

Hi Lisa,

I am not sure how juicing can help those particular health conditions directly. However, since IBS can affect the amount of nutrients we digest from food, then a juice will help boost your nutrient intake because it is super easy to digest. Also juice contains loads of antioxidants which can at least help with all sorts of inflammatory issues.

What a great site. Thanks! I made my first juice tonight by just throwing the organic foods I have left over with an apple/nectarine in and it was AWFUL! I have had juices others made and they were better. I think, after reading the above, I should try to not put the whole kitchen sink in – maybe stick to a couple veggies and then a fruit. Any thoughts on this?

Hi I have been reading some of the comments especially about the byproducts after juicing.

What comes to my mind is cooking, though it my contradict what juicing is for, but my thoughts are making a carrot cake, or a lemon pound cake or finding a recipe that would be enhanced the food.

Or start your own compost for your own vegetable garden, something small
