I juiced during the initial stages of bad flares. I wouldn't say it helped, but it didn't hurt either, and it was quite tasty (carrot-apple juice ftw!). I still drink juice occasionally but more for the taste than anything. :)

I have a juicer too but only use it occasionally now. My colon seems sensitive to too much juice at one time and really works better when I eat veggies with the fiber and get the nourishment in a less intense form. But the better I feel the more I'm able to tolerate juice, weird huh? Something that is so good is just too strong for my colon unless it's in a very good mood. :-)

Glad it's working for you.

I have my son juicing as part of the regime. I juice with my pouch cause I cannot eat a lot of fiber cause of adhesions and I do feel much better when I juice and oh my nails are much stronger as well.

I just got a new slow masticating juicer a couple of weeks ago and I love it. I usually put fresh ginger in my juices. I have been fighting a mild flair for a few months and can't say that the juicing has helped yet but it tastes great and I know it is healthy for me regardless.

How much does a juicer cost?
Posted 10/29/2011 2:00 PM (GMT 0)
I have the Jack LaLaine and it cost around $100. I juice too but only sparingly. My body just can't handle juice every day. In fact, when I am constipated I normally juice apples and that gets me going again :)

My favorite is orange/pineapple/apple.

My juicer is an Omega and was about 250. It is suppose to be really good for green leafy veggies as it is slow and chews the veggies up without producing excess heat (which destroys vitamins); it also comes with a 10 year warranty. There are some juicers that cost 1000. I tried to research them a bit and looked on amazon. My favorite juices so far include ginger, spinach, cabbage, orange, apple, beets, lime, cucumber. I have not made anything I don't like yet and drink one for breakfast everyday. It is really addictive. I ended up buying a small composter for all the veggie/fruit scraps and pulp that was accumulating. Maybe next year I will have an awesome garden to grow all my own veggies in!

Jack LaLaine i found at big lots...for $60.00 great deal...when i first started looking i went to walmart..two of them..and they were all out...something so healthy is unfortunetly so expensive and hard to find....but its worth every penny...my nail are stronger too...i still have my bad days but..i know it goes right through the bloodstream and gives you energy and the vitamins we all need....:)
