Juicing!!


Jackson and I recently watched the documentary: Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead.  Jackson and I do not like the same TV at all (except football, Jeopardy and the home network).  So finding something on Netflix that we will both watch is a chore.  So enough about our serious First World Problems J
We settled on this documentary, and we have become slightly obsessed with the idea of juicing ever since.  We are thinking of slowly incorporating some juices into our lives or maybe even trying a short reboot program.  Since we have been talking about it incessantly, I have started to do a little research.  Below are the top blogs & articles I have found on juicing!

If you have ever juiced and have some good stories, recommendations, resources etc., let us know (leave a comment on the blog or on Facebook)! 

Tracee Sloan’s blog has tons of details on juicing: the benefits, what to buy, a cleanse program, a receipt builder etc.  My only challenge is her blog section; there are no dates, so it is not clear for me if this is still an active blog site.

This article was great b/c it was a quick list of common mistakes.  In reading it, I can say I would have probably made all of them.  So when we try juicing, I’ll be on the lookout!  The Foodbabe site has a lot of other articles including deep dives into benefits / risks of certain foods.


Comprehensive list of bloggers who are juice advocates.  These folks drink, breath, sleep juicing.  They have great stories and successes.   But most also take it very seriously and want to help people juice correctly and safely.  There was on blog post on Responsible juicing that I really like! It warned to proceed with caution and manage your juicing to maximize benefits.


This blog is Don’s personal story.  Great updates of his experience with juicing and the health benefits he experienced.  No updates for about a year though.


This blog has tips and tricks of juicing.  It has tons of details on how to get started and recipes etc.  Their ’10 Tips to Get the Most out of Juicing’ was great!


Cherie (self-proclaimed juice lady) is a nutritionist who has a personal story of restoring her health with juicing.  Lots of articles on juicing but also on other topics ranging from detox to aspartame. 


Fun, peppy site, but juicing is only a small portion she is more focused on wholesome living.
