Juicing for Better Health

Check the link for a number of articles relating to crufierous veggies and preventing and in many cases, treating cancer. Don't believe me; see for yourself!


I just finished preparing my juice for the week. I prefer purchasing my produce form Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, or Wegman's. This week's menu; 1/2 head of cabbage, 2 broccoli...sprongs (he-ell, I don't what they're called), a little -bok choi, 2 apples, 3 pears. It makes enough to have about 4 oz. per day for a week. It tastes very good, and you can add whatever fruits you prefer for flavor. I will tell you that I tried putting a banana in, but it ended up in the waste area rather than the catch-pitcher. I did add a little banana essence, but not worth it to me.

Juicing gets the nutrients into your system quickly and cleanly. Just find a way to add a little extra fiber to your CoQ 10 (60-100 mgs), your anti-oxidants (Vit. A, C, D, and E), and your minerals (calcium, magnesium, potassium. zinc, and thiamine). These are but some of the supplements I choose to add regularly to my diet. Dr. Weil has a vitamin finder program that will assess what you may need based on your answers to a few simple questions. Just Google ACIM.

Do not buy the Juicer's advertised on TV because they're generally under-powered. I recommend the juicer by Breville. It has a big 3/4 horsepower motor that revs to 640 rpms, a speed capable of turning anything into juice in seconds, even whole fruit.

The above juicing and supplementation regimen will go far in protecting you from many cancers as well as coronary artery disease (CAD) and hypercholesteremia. It can even reverse many other existing issues which many of us have developed over time. Don't let the fact that you feel great fool you. These are silent, insidious, and stealthy killers. It is never too late to start. Notice I've said nothing about exercise or the D.A.S.H heart healthy (recommended highly) eating style (similar to the mediterranean diet). Just try to do one thing to start.

Best wishes and long life to you all.
