Picking the right ingredients
You can pretty much juice all different types of vegetables and fruits but for green juicing it’s recommend starting out with:
-
Celery, cucumber
Celery and cucumber make a good base since they are easy to digest and are more palatable. They also yield a lot of liquids! These vegetables aren’t as nutrient dense as the following vegetables below. Once you are more comfortable with drinking green juices, you can advance to the following vegetables:
-
Romaine lettuce, spinach, cabbage, bok choy, fennel
And finally the most bitter tasting, yet so full of nutrients is the following:
-
Kale, swiss chard, dandelion greens, collard greens
You can also add herbs to your juice! Herbs have powerful healing properties. Start off with a small amount. A couple of sprigs will do.
-
Parsley, coriander, mint
Add a natural sweetener

Apples, carrots
Other vegetables/fruits to consider:
-
Bell peppers, oranges, pineapples, sweet potato, broccoli, grapes, pears, watermelon, asparagus
There are endless combinations of fruits and vegetables you can use to juice. However, it is ideal to have a higher ratio of vegetable. Vegetables are the most nutrient dense and best thing you can put in your body.
