I've been jucing for a little while but only have 1 or 2 veggie combos that are palatable. So my idea was to juice myself a salad (lettuce, carrot, tomatoe, cucumber, celery, beet, and lime as "dressing") every day. I'd like to know the best type of lettuce (most flavorful, high nutritional content) to juice. I would imagine it's a lighter, less bitter taste than kale or spinach.
Please help.- Re: Best kind of lettuce to juice?

MoreThis is a reply to # 681,502I would say lettuce with the darkest, greenest leaves... Romaine, Arugula, Spinach... The darker the green, the more nutritious and flavorful. The lighter the green, the less nutritious and the less flavorful.
Your juicy salad sounds wonderful with that lime.
I hope this helps.

I'm on day 8. I did 6 days MC, and jumped right in with juice fasting to extend the detox. I'm not sure how long I'll last though, this cleanse is really difficult for me this time around, not sure why. That said, my only cheat thus far was to lick a mini Snickers, not licked to the point that it melted, but licked once just to get a litttle essence of something new in my mouth.
If I were eating right now (though what I really want is a cheeseburger or sushi or salmon) what I would be having coming off detox is this EXACT salad, plus a little avocado (but you can't juice that). So this is my "crative" (lame) attempt to satisfy this yearning to eat. I'm not hungry, I'm just YEARNING TO EAT!!!
Thanks for the info.

OMG! I craved a cheeseburger all through my 30 day fast! I even made the most delicious cheeseburgers for my husband and his uncle one evening. I about died. I even pondered over Wimpy, Popeye's pal, as to why he begged for hamburgers when he could have begged for cheeseburgers. God!

I found if I sipped something HOT it would appease my hunger, whether it was physical or psychological... so I made veggie and fruit broths, in addition I sipped lots of hot herbal teas and hot lemon/cayenne pepper tea... staved the hunger and cravings more often than not.
If you drink more greens you'll find a peace, a high, and the strength to carry on. I did a base of carrot/apple and then added equal amounts of greens, dark greens. So if my juice is 16 ounces, 8 ounces is carrot/apple and 8 ounces are greens such as spinach, brocolli, dandelion greens, wheatgrass, beet greens, kale and swiss chard and so on... They are SO soothing, peace inducing, healing, energy inducing veggies. I refer to them as Life's Elixirs.
Happy juicing.
