Drink the juice at room temperature and do not blend the juice of your choice with other fruit or vegetable juices. For information on juicing techniques, see page 93. ¦iiii Vitamin and Mineral Therapy Omega-3 fatty acids suppress production of prostaglandins, the hormones that cause cramping, says Elson Haas, M.D, director of the Preventive Medical Center of Marin in San Rafael, California, and author of Staying Healthy with Nutrition. To get these acids, he recommends fish oil capsules, taken according to the dosage on the label. Fish oil capsules are available in most health food stores.
Good sources of vitamin A include any fruit or vegetable that has a yellow or orange color—squash, yams, sweet potatoes and carrots. Zinc is found in oysters, sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds.Vitamin A is also found in dark green leafy vegetables such as spinach and kale." (For more information on food sources of vitamin A and zinc, refer to "Getting What You Need" on page 142.) mm Homeopathy "If you have a bod that comes on quite suddenly, is very bright red and inflamed and is hot and very painful to the touch, then Belladonna is a good remedy choice for you," says Mitchell Fleisher, M.D.
As soon as a fruit or vegetable is processed in your juicer, the natural enzymes in the juice begin to break down the other nutrients. Because vegetables contain more enzymes than fruits, their nutrients are depleted faster. "Once vegetable juices start to thicken, all that's left are water, minerals and calories," says Dr. Bailey. (For more information on how to maximize the health benefits of juices, see "Ready, Set, Juice!") Massage The Touch That Heals Back in the days before aspirin, heating pads and whirlpools, humans treated their sore bodies the old-fashioned way: with massage.
If a fruit or vegetable has been waxed, be sure to peel it before juicing. While the wax itself won't hurt you, it makes it virtually impossible to remove pesticide residues from the skin. • Remove all seeds and pits. When you're not using a juicer made specifically for citrus fruits, be sure to peel them before juicing. The skins of oranges and grapefruits contain a toxic oil that's an active ingredient in some household cleaners, according to Calbom. Leave as much of the white, pithy part as possible, though, since it's loaded with vitamin C and flavonoids.
Wash and juice any stems or greens that are still attached to the fruit or vegetable. Many, such as beet greens, are rich in valuable minerals. Two exceptions are carrot and rhubarb greens, which can be toxic. • Certain fruits, such as bananas and avocados, contain very little water and can't be juiced. If you'd like to include them in a juice recipe, juice all the other, moister produce first, transfer the juice to a blender and process with the (peeled) banana or avocado.

Natural Cures

To get nine servings of fresh fruits and vegetables a day, you'd have to add some fruit to your cereal each morning, have a salad and two vegetables at both lunch and dinner and have two fruit or vegetable snacks a day. There's really only one way to do that—become some kind of vegetarian. The Many Kinds of Vegetarian What's a vegetarian? The simple answer is that it's someone who does not eat meat. But life in the 1990s is more complicated. There are many different kinds of vegetarianism. Some "vegetarians" even eat meat occasionally.

The Way of Chinese Herbs

Unlike fruit or vegetable juice fasts, which are also cooling but lack the denser nutrients, a diet high in mung beans, especially a kichari and mung bean diet, achieves a more balanced detoxification without aggravating any nutritional deficiencies. GHEE (CLARIFIED BUTTER) AND THE IMPORTANCE OF FATS AND OILS One of the other ingredients in kichari is ghee, or what is called clarified butter in the West. This is becoming increasingly more available from natural-food stores throughout the country.
