Juicing recipes and tips:

General Juicing Tips

1. One pound of raw fruits or vegetables will generally yield 1 cup of fresh juice. This variesaccording to the type of fruit or vegetable used, and also varies from juicer to juicer, andis only a general guideline.

2. For clearer juice, you can filter the juice through folded layers of cheesecloth or a coffeefilter.

3. Consume fresh juice immediately, as it begins to discolor and lose it's flavor and nutrientcontent very quickly.

4. You can store fresh juice for up to 24 hours if you keep it in an airtight container. Add afew drops of lemon juice to prevent discoloration.

5. Cut fruits and vegetables into small bite-sized pieces. Dice strawberries and separateoranges into sections. Smaller pieces will process better in the juicer.

6. Spice up your juice with add-ins such as a small bit of fresh ginger or mint.

7. Give your juice a health boost with bee pollen, flax seeds, nuts soaked in water to softenthem, or dairy products.

8. Thoroughly wash skin or rind of fruit or vegetables before juicing to remove harmfulchemicals, or peel the fruit or vegetable before juicing to further eliminate chemicals fromyour juice. Skip both of these steps by using only organic produce.

9. Cut away all moldy, bruised, or damaged areas of your produce before juicing.10. Place a plastic bag in the pulp receptacle of your juicer. When you're done juicing, you

can thow away the pulp or use it in cooking and you won't need to wash the pulpreceptacle.

Fruit Juicing Tips

1. In general, the softer the fruit, the thicker the juice. Soft fruits like raspberries or

strawberries yield a very thick juice. A firm fruit such as an apple or pineapple will yield athinner juice.2. Bananas, papayas and avocados don't work well in a juicer. You will get a thick pure

instead of a juice.3. Remember to remove hard pits from your fruit as they will damage your juicer.4. If you are diabetic or have problems with blood sugar, stick to juicing vegetables.5. Ninety-five percent of all the nutritional content of watermelon is in the rind.6. Always peel mangos and papayas, whose skins contain an irritant that is harmful when

consumed in quantity.

Citrus Juicing Tips

1. Room-temperature citrus fruits will yield more juice than those that are refrigerated.

2. Microwaving the citrus fruit for a few seconds before juicing will help extract more juice.3. Use your palm to roll the citrus fruit around on the countertop a few times before juicing.4. The peels of oranges, tangerines and grapefruits contain bitter, indigestible oils and must

be removed before juicing.

Food Preparation for Maximum Juicing Chop larger products before placing them in juicers. This ensures that the juicer

will not become clogged easily.

Avoid adding too many leafy vegetables in juicers. While electric juicers can

handle them more easily than manual juicers, they juice better if leaves are notadded in bulk. Add leaves in small handfuls.

Cut tomatoes in half or quarters for easier juicing. Make sure to squeeze out

the tomato seeds.

You can juice potatoes (it's true), but you should remove all sprouts or eyes

before placing them in the juicer.

Rhubarb and carrot greens must be removed, since they will clog up the

juicers.

Remove the skin of any fruit that has a tough or fuzzy hide, such as pineapples,

kiwis, oranges, grapefruits or peaches.
