Are there "no-no's" in juicing, certain fruits or vegetables that shouldn't be mixed?

Since I am new at juicing, I would just like to know if I can be as creative as I like, as long as I can get it down? Are there certain fruits or vegetables that shouldn't be mixed together or shouldn't be juiced at all?
Sara says:Pat, please be as creative as you like. There is no hard and fast rule about what you can or cannot mix. Common sense will come in handy.
Each body is different so listen to how your body responds to the juices. Write down what you can stomach or what you cannot, and how your body responds to each fruit/vegetable.
If you find that you cannot stomach a certain fruit/vegetable, slowly reintroduce the item in small amounts and gradually increasing the amount.
Soon you will find that you would like to stick to only certain fruits or vegetables and you will be creating your own favorite recipes.
But always remember to drink in moderation. Beginners tend to drink excessively. Once or twice a day should be good enough, each time at about 8-10 oz.
Please familiarize yourself also with the basics of juicing.Happy juicing!
