  • Anyone here juice? Keep reading not what you think.

    Juice fruits and vegetables.

    I know sugar can be an issue but I was looking at adding in a single juice per day. Nothing diet related like the fad juice diets, just a single 12-16 oz juice.

    Benefits to the bodybuilder or power lifter types?

    I used to drink a single serving of Welch's grape juice every day, but cut it out do to my during constraints. Some drink juice with creatine to get more creatine to the muscle. Sometimes I may drink a V8 if I need to add the vegetable.

    I guess my question is, what do you hope to gain by adding the juice?

      I have both a jack lalane juicer and a vitamix. both juice . I don't use either all that often but I do notice a change in my sleep when I have one before bed. seems I sleep sounder I guess.

      carrots spinach beets and and apple makes about about 16oz and a big ass mess to clean. I like kale too the thing when adding leafy veggies the vitamix works best but I like all other stuff in the lalane . im picky I suppose. as far as sugars not a clue and I never worried about them

        ^^ thanks for the tip on the juicer. I hate cleaning up messy appliances.

        My after training shake is 8oz Trop 50 orange juice with 8oz ff milk, creatine and 2 scoops protein powder. I drink this almost daily and have for years whether I'm cutting or bulking.

          My juicer cleans up in minutes. Its a masticating type not a centrifugal.

          Just hoping to get more greens in my diet but plan to not waste the pulp. I will use pulp is pasta sauce, muffins, meatloafs.

            I did yesterday and had the rest this morning, I believe you miss out on a lot of the fiber though. Sure do notice the difference after drinking a glass I feel really uplifted for sure. My friends who don't juice notice the same thing.

              I have juiced enough to fill a gallon jug for the fridge. you got to drink it with in about 5 days then you can start to notice a difference in taste. not sure what it is exactly and it stains your container pretty good to so using a old jug that you can toss makes no clean up.

                Sometime I'd like to make a killer bloody mary mix.

                    Nope, I use the pulp in other dishes. Made a whole wheat "pulp" bread today.
