I noticed in the book you have certain recipes for vegetable juice, is there any other ones that you recommend?  

[Aajonus] 

It depends upon a condition. Those are the main that anybody can relate to if they have the problems that I suggested there, but you could pick up Walkers Vegetable Juice Book and then see what he recommends for certain conditions. 

[Attendee] 

Yeah, he's got carrot and everything.  

[Aajonus] 

Yes, but you only want to use a little bit of carrot. 

[Attendee] 

He’s got turnips and beets. 

[Aajonus] 

You just use a small amount of those if you're gonna use them. No more than 10% of your juice. If it's something strong, like leaks, cilantro, kale, any of those are really hot and strong. You want to use no more than 5% of your juice.

Somewhere there's like a list of like how much carbohydrates are in vegetables. 

[Aajonus] 

Well. I think that the USDA has a book on that and you can download it. It has an index on that. But, you know, you use salary and that's your negative. So, you can use higher carbohydrate things, it’s just the celery will bring it down. 

Like sometimes I'll give somebody 20% of their juice as carrot, but it has 60% or 70% celary to bring that down. But I know that that person can handle more high carbohydrates without ending up in the brain. So, they have a lot of bile in their body and that bile needs to be removed. 

A lot of that high carbohydrates gonna be used to digest the carotene to neutralize the bile. So, you're getting heavy into chemistry there and you better know your chemistry if you’re screwing with something like that. But if you have very yellow skin any particular time, it means you're throwing off a lot of bile, a higher amount of carrot juice would be fine. 

Just make sure you use celery as your negative base.
