Juicing Recipes Has A Makeover!!

Greetings to all my subscribers used to my old and very monotonous site design. I just wanted to make a quick post to let you know the site has been redesigned from the ground up. It is a work in progress, so you may see things change here from time to time.

It has been over a year since I started this site, and since the web changes so rapidly I assume that's the equivalent of around 140 human years. So I figured I would spend some time sending the juicing recipes blog to the gym, to the plastic surgeon, and eventually to the salon.

And so it's back in a brand new and far slicker theme (if I do say so myself). Welcome to the big reveal! (Whoa, I definitely watch too much reality television!) Please don't hesitate to leave a comment or 10 and let me know if this design is easier on your eyes than the last look. In my worst case scenario you may think it's absolute rubbish, but even if that is the case I truly want to hear about it so I might continue to improve on things as 2009 unfolds.

As some of my readers already know, I also write for a major fitness magazine, but contractually I can't link it here or mention it - without fear of being whisked away by men in black and being tortured within an inch of my life. However, I have to mention that the the site layout of that magazine's online division doesn't look anywhere near as sexy as my new design. LOL!! Wow, I actually feel like a proud parent. Is that bad?

Btw have you had your juice yet today? If not, try this one:

Heavenly Health

2 carrots
1 sweet potato
2 apples
thin slice of Spanish onion
pinch dulse powder

All Juice Should Be Green, Sometimes...

They call it "green juice", which begs the question who are they? Do they live on a mountain somewhere, dictating to us what is and is not correct? Are they a band of Greek Gods, sustaining their existence by ingesting only pure and untainted wisdom? Do they juice?

I mean after all, they say you should always eat your veggies, and they are right. Which brings me back to the question, who are they? And how did they always seem to know that you should eat your veggies? These are the questions that I seek to answer here at the good old Juicing Recipes blog ;).

Anyways, people have coined the term "green juice" to imply, oh I dunno, juice that is green in color. So in a conscious attempt to further the stereotype that "green" juices are better for you, here are some wonderful juicing recipes that will likely end up being green in color. I can guarantee you will enjoy them.

Potassium Juice

3 carrots
3 stalks celery
½ bunch spinach
½ bunch parsley

Ginger Root Boost

1 inch slice ginger root
Juice from 1 fresh lemon
6 carrots with tops
1 seeded apple

1 cucumber

2 stalks celery

In my relentless research to find out who they are, I have inadvertently come across a wonderful video demonstrating the power and efficiency of the Breville Juice Fountain Elite Juicer. You needn't bother using the info on the video to order one, as I have diligently provided links within this post so you can purchase one at a significant discount. Click the product title above, click here, or click the fancy shmancy picture I've provided at the start of this post. In doing so you will be whisked away to the wonderful world of Amazon wherein you will find all things related to juicing and/or anything else you may have in mind.

Seriously, how and when you purchase one is entirely your decision, I'm just here to help get you a juicer and get off and running to a better and healthier lifestyle.

Juicing Recipes Will Help The Economy!!

Well, it's official. Everyone is losing their jobs, no one can eat out anymore, we all have to work as a janitor at Denny's, stop showering with hot water, and succumb to a cheap, fast food diet. So throw out your juicing recipes, take the juicer to the pawn shop and put on your uniform cuz today you have a double shift.

One word: NOT!! There is at least one thing in that last paragraph that doesn't have to be included in our new "Crisis" mentality. Is it just me, or are vegetables and fruits still a cheap way to get vitamins? I rest my case. Yes, perhaps your GNC preferred customer card won't get used until your next birthday month (for the 25% discount), and that's a right horrible thing. But how about this; instead of having a nervous breakdown because your shelves won't be populated with "MegaMen" and "B Booster" pills - stop - take a moment... breathe in... and understand where the ingredients for those vitamins came from.

History tells us that one of the first things we tend to sacrifice in a financially challenged environment is our nutrition. Now more than ever nutrition is an expensive pursuit in this day and age of quick fix diets and vitamins that cost more than some cancer medications. I am writing this post to beg and plead to everyone NOT to let your health be sacrificed because things are getting tough. Think of it this way. You will have to work harder and smarter now than perhaps ever in your life to survive this downturn, so getting sick will do nothing but harm your productivity on so many levels.

Let's face it, you can juice on almost any budget. Veggies and fruits aren't so expensive yet. Look at it this way, if you lost everything and were reduced to wandering the country looking for food, an apple tree would be a very nice thing to see, yes?

Saving money is a key to withstanding economic hardships, and living cheaper saves you money. Here's an idea; take 15.00 and buy a big bag of...
apples+
oranges+
broccoli+
wheat grass
... and forgo that 85.00 "SuperMegaMassiveMonstrous" vitamin. You'll save 70.00 for the winter heating bill and will have simultaneously increased the amount of vitamins your body digests!

Seriously speaking, now that your job may be on the line, it might be worth it to look at that 300.00+ a month that you throw away buying vitamins, and replace all those happy pills with healthy juice. Trust me, it's cheaper and better for you.

Juice to calm fears, juice to ease medical conditions - lose weight, hell you can even juice to slow the progression of disease. It's not rocket science. No it's not as easy as popping a pill of course, but it's not rocket science. Here are the instructions, in 5 easy steps:

1. Buy a quality juicer.
2. On your way home from the juicer store, buy assorted vegetables and fruits.
3. Plug in the juicer.
4. Insert veggies and fruits.
5. Drink!!

Step one can be removed from the instructions above if you buy a juicer from this site of course, (I highly recommend this one) but that's entirely your call. I'm only here to help.

So next time you turn on the TV and see all the Doom Sayers tell you we're going straight to the Ninth Circle of Financial Hell, grab your veggies, some great juicing recipes and make some juice. Oh, and turn to the golf channel :).

Juicing Recipes Wants You to Eat More Turkey!!!

Hello to all the juicing recipes readers!! I've dusted off the blog to add a very gracious and heart felt Happy Thanksgiving to all my readers and everyone who may stumble by.

I've been a busy bee with my first attempt at a template for this blog (this template isn't it BTW) and also looking into my own domain - as a result of the incredible amount of visitors I have been getting over the past month. So I can say I am thankful I decided to start blogging about my passion - which of course - is juicing (duh!)

So to everyone I say Eat, drink, and be merry, and look below for the inevitable reality check we all get after the dinner settles and the football game is over...

If that countdown scares you as much as it does me, you may wanna head over to one of my subscribers blogs about online Christmas shopping (yes that's the link). I'll be doing that right after I finish the dishes.

Prunes Are Good for You, Looking Like One? Not So Much

Skin care is extremely important in maintaining a healthy and youthful look. Thanks to a multi-billion dollar cosmetic industry there are hundreds of products out that will help you combat aging skin. Some people even mash up fruits and veggies and spread them over their face to help battle the ravages of time. However one of the most understated ways to achieve healthy looking skin is by simply juicing recipes that include veggies and fruits that are known to have beneficial skin care properties.

What you want to find are those fruits and veggies high in antioxidants as they combat the free radicals loose in our systems. Most of the recipes you already know of are beneficial to your skin, so if you are not concentrating on your skin per say, be assured that as long as you are juicing there's a good chance you are replenishing your skin by default.

BTW, free radicals are to skin as a power outage is to an ACDC concert, just so you know. To combat this menace, ingest any food item rich in vitamin A, C and E as these have excellent anti-oxidation qualities. To go nuclear on free radicals make sure you add a healthy dose of water (8 to 10 glasses every day) as water is a key ingredient for skin health.

Consider juicing the following to help in your skin care regimen:

• plums, nectarines, peaches all have low glycerin compared to other fruits.
  
• Antioxidants and natural acids in yogurt and most fruit will lightly and nourish the skin, so try adding some yogurt to your favorite juice next time.
• Berries of all kinds have known antioxidant properties and are elements of natural anti-inflammation. They can be used to prevent and repair damaged skin. Berries also help to add great flavor to what may otherwise be a bland or poor tasting juice.
  

As I mentioned, pretty much any juicing recipes that include fruits and veggies are bound to have extremely beneficial qualities to your skin's health, but by adding some of the suggestions listed above you will be going that extra mile for your largest organ. :-)

Who Else Needs A Vacation?

Well, I have decided that it's almost time for my bi-annual vacation, and being the seasoned world traveler I have always wished myself to be, I wanted to pick a spot this year completely different from my usual haunts. (The usual haunts being my back yard or the pool at my brother's place ;)).

Being a little spoiled for choice this year thanks to my juicing detox book selling very well, there are so many places near by me that are ripe for a good visit for some exotic fruits, a few non local beers, and some picturesque white sandy beaches. In keeping with the tradition of expanding my horizons I decided on a little YouTube research to cruise the videos for a nice spa-ish retreat. 

Low and behold I came across my infectious buddy Jason Vale again, only this time his video gave me no new juicing epiphanies. Nope, the video below is about a juicing spa retreat and for an enthusiast like me what could be better? OK, a Lamborghini could be better, but that's besides the point. 

As an aside, I think this Jason Vale cat is creeping around the inside of my mind and it's freaking me out a bit. Besides the twilight zone factor, you can now take a moment and picture me jumping up an down for joy as my cat looks at me like I'm nuts, and also whipping out the credit cards to book my stay. Watch the video and you'll see what I'm sayin'. Oh, one question, where is Montenegro? Hmmm... google maps time I guess.

Again, please note that I have no current affiliation with Jason, but his infectious and utterly convincing philosophy on juicing recipes for health are fast becoming yet another reason I am so gung ho passionate about it as well.
