mommymilkies Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 I have some arthritis in my knees (I have the full very confusing MRI results if anyone cares!), baker cysts, plus what is either chronic SI joint pain or some treacherous goblin attacks my hip in my sleep. ;) So Geo brought up juicing in another thread. I'm not willing to go on a total juice fast for various reasons, but I am interested in hearing how juicing works for you, favorite combos, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flowing Brook Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 I don't agree with all of his religious practices but if you get on the hallelujah diet website with George malkmus you will get to read a lot of good testimonies. It is a lot of work but I think worth it. I still eat meat and cooked food so I do not go to the extreme of the website that I recommended. I think it is a good reference.

Χά�ων Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 I miss my juicer. I loved doing a berry layer smoothie. Blue berries, black berries, rasberries and sometimes strawberries. Yum yum yum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicAnn Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 My favorite juice is kale, lemon, apple. Or kale, ginger, apple. Super delicious and I drink it as often as possible! Good luck with your health issues! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Hey Mommymilkies, sorry it took so long to make it over here. If you aren't able to fast and speed up detox, it may take a while to see any change. But it could eventually make a difference. My favorite juice is not a real favorite with a lot of people. But here it is anyway: 2 cups Kale, packed, or, 2 big handfuls (stems and all) 1 cucumber (I peel, if not organic, use 2 if they are small) 2 celery stalks 2 med carrots, or 1 honker 1 grapefruit (peel the rind, leave the white pith) 1/2 - 1 lemon (totally optional, treat same as grapefruit) Dr. Furman has books and information on diet and juicing for health: http://www.drfuhrman.com/disease/arthritis.aspx I HIGHLY recommend you obtain, "Eating For Health" so that you understand the "nutrient-dense" eating approach to reversing health issues.

That would make us identical twins from different mothers...except that I probably have a decade or two on you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geo Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 Awesome! I'm certain then, that you are fabulous. I wasn't fishing for a compliment...but I'll take it anyway. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucyStoner Posted September 6, 2013 Share Posted September 6, 2013 I prefer smoothies to juice because I don't see the need to extract all the fiber from what amounts to the sugars and vitamins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
