5 things to never put in your juicer
August 2, 2012 in Juicing Tips
While most fruits and vegetables are great to juice, here are some items you should not juice:
1. Leeks. Leeks outer layer is not recommended for juicing at all and because it produces a very potent juice, if you do juice the inner layers, it should be used sparingly.
2. Rhubarb. Rhubarb and the green tops of Rhubarb are not good juicing options due to its high oxalic acid content.
3. Avocados
4. Bananas
5. Coconut
Avocados, bananas and coconut would make great additions to some of your juices if you felt like going an extra step. Many people do thicken their juices up by adding them to a blender and tossing in an avocado or banana for example.
