Dear Friend,

Since the last issue of Juicy News, I have heard back that many of you have started to sprout your own wheatgrass.  Well done!  Do share your sprouting experience, and post your photos here.  I will have them featured on Juicing-for-Health.com.

I received an email from a lady in Singapore whose children suffer from nose-bleeding.  This seems to be a common problem these days due to faulty diet, artificial chemicals in food and lack of proper nutrition.  Read about it and the remedy I suggested here.

Another superfood you would want to add
to your list of juicing ingredients:

As I was experimenting some juicer recipes for a restaurant client, I chanced upon a juice recipe which not only taste great, but is superior in its nutrients quality.

The main ingredient, capsicum (or bell pepper), contains very high level of vitamin C--far more than citrus fruits.  The other vitamins and minerals in this fruit work altogether synergistically and powerfully for many health ailments. 

I bet you would never think of juicing capsicums.  You get the best of it when using a gear juicer.  Let's see what capsicums are capable of:
 

Anti-bacterial and anti-fungal:  The anti-septic properties in capsicum makes it effective in fighting food poisoning.  Coupled with a good supply of probiotics, yeast and fungal infection problems, like ring-worm, shingles, athlete's foot, etc. can be easily eliminated.

Cold feet:  During the winter when you have cold feet, cut up capsicum and put them in the socks.  The mild "hot" will help keep your feet nicely warm.

Digestive system:  Capsicum is a stimulant herb.  It helps relieve gastrointestinal problems like indigestion, stomach ulcers, colic, dyspepsia, diarrhea and even help reduce excessive flatulence.

Nose bleeding:  The rich vitamin C helps to heal, repair, build/strengthen the lining of the mucous membranes to prevent nose bleeds. Mix capsicum juice with lotus root juice for maximum effect.

Pain relief:  Capsaicin in capsicum blocks transmission of pain, so it can help relieve pain to a certain degree.  It is also effective for eliminating headaches and migraines.

Respiratory problems:  The high level of vitamin C coupled with flavonoids (from citrus fruits) make capsicum a very good food that helps prevent respiratory problems like asthma, emphysema, wheezing, lung infections, etc.

Sore throat:  Gargle some capsicum juice to help eliminate a sore throat.  The anti-septic properties does the work super well.

... and many, many more.  Read them all on the capsicums page.

SUPER BOOSTER JUICE RECIPES

These simple combinations not only taste good, they also work together to provide high quality anti-oxidants to the body, and super boost your immune system. 

Capsicum/bell pepper on its own tastes rather sharp.  A squeeze of lemon into the juice blunts the sharpness.

Try these two juice recipes:

-  3-4 medium sized red and/or yellow bell pepper

-  2 small limes OR 1/2 lemon OR 1 orange

AND

-  1-2 medium sized red and/or yellow bell pepper

-  about 4 inches of medium-sized lotus roots

-  1 medium-sized orange

-  1 medium-sized carrot
