The Juicing Thread

This thread is for the discussion of juicing, from tasty recipes and ingredients to medicinal benefits and juicer recommendations. If it pertains to juicing, post it up!

I'll start by mentioning that if you're serious about juicing, you'll want to pick up a low rpm masticating juicer, not one of the cheaper high rpm ones. There are several good juicers in the $3-500 range, I have a Tribest Greenstar Elite, which is a good juicer though it seems to have gone up in price a bit. Another good brand is Omega, their 8006 or 8008 models are pretty good as well.

Next I'll post a basic recipe. I like to throw in carrots and green apples as the base, then add a bit of ginger and turmeric, a pinch of cayenne pepper, and some greens.

For the greens, I like to pick things from the yard. Broadleaf plantains, dandelions, and cannabis leaves are all fair game. If you are planning on juicing cannabis leaves for the health benefits, you will want to grow a lot so you can take it regularly. I like to juice a bunch of my outdoor males once they show sex, or female leaves if I'm defoliating, and freeze the juice into cubes, to be added as needed to smoothies and such.

Having Crohn's disease, intestinal inflammation and polyps are my main concerns. Juicing cannabis regularly seemed to help my gut health, but it was a lot to keep up with when I wasn't feeling well.

Does anyone else have a juicer, or any interest in juicing?
