Re: juicing - nutritional content

[Guest guest]

Check the files and links on our site. Under the folder: IMPROVING YOUR

CRON PROGRAM is a file on nutrient tracking systems and in our links

section are some great sites for nutrition data.

So people, please read the files and links. Lots of hard work has gone into

them.

Hi Jun:

Since vegetables are so healthy have you experimented with different

vegetables to see which you tolerate best? Then avoid only those

that cause you trouble, but eat the others. Have you also

experimented cooking the same troublesome vegetables by different

methods? Depending on the reason for the difficulty it is possible

that the cooking method may be a factor, and a troublesome, but

healthy, food cooked by another method might be OK. If the problem

persists you might want to get some medical advice. It is unlikely

you are the only person ever to have experienced this phenomenon(!)

As for the nutrient content of juices, presumably it is identical to

the nutrient content of the foods from which they are made. However,

they will probably be absorbed much more quickly in the intestine

(higher glycemic index).

breaks out as well, because that stuff just sits in my system for

days. Anyways, I've started juicing. But I'm having difficulty

finding the nutritional content of the juice. Does anyone know any

good websites for this. Also, does anyone know any good free-

software that I can use to make sure i get USDRA and my daily

prot/carb/fat allowance.
