    Default Looking for Juice recipe

    Hi all,

    I'm starting to really get into juicing lately. I know that I'm really low in zinc -I discovered that zinc supplements stop my heels from getting deep cracks in them but I would like to get off the supplements if possible.

    Does anyone know of a good juice recipe that is high in zinc?

    Any other favorite juice recipes (that incorporate greens) appreciated as well.

    Lisa

    Hi, go here:

    http://dietary-supplements.info.nih....zinc.html#food

    there is a chart at the bottom of the page with info about zinc,

    mostly it is pecans, almonds, walnuts, chickpeas, peas, those seem to be raw/vegan and high in zinc.

    If you wish to add some cashews to your smoothies, it would make it easy to get your zinc, or make a veggie smoothie and add peas.

    I make a veggie smothie, then warm it, and I call it soup, it's excellent, I add all kinds of veggies in there, and drink it up. yummy.

    David Wolfe mentions poppy seeds as very high in zinc in The Sunfood Diet Success System....
