Guest guest Posted August 31, 2007 Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 Hi everyone ~ I found this one the web...so everyone can come to their own conclusions... www.hacres.com/diet/research/carrot_juice_full.pdf As for me, I'll continue to drink it daily...beats what I used to eat! ~ Jackie rawfood [rawfood ]On Behalf Of gojikid Friday, August 31, 2007 2:17 PM rawfood [Raw Food] Re: ELCHANAN carrot juicing? I would have to Agree with Elchanan about the starch. Starch is converted to sugar by the body and drinking this in concentrated amounts just is not natural, like carrots and beets. If you are at all concerned about about your blood sugar levels than i would not reccomend jucing starchy foods. Eaten whole would be a better option especially for people with blood sugar issues. rawfood , " Joe Postma " <joepostma wrote: > > Carrots are just FINE to eat, this is being a little extreme here. > > It is a very well known, common fact that carrot juice is one of the > most basic juice tonics you can take - it is very cleansing to > multiple systems of the body.
