    Default Yam Juice

    I discovered some juice recipes that use yams (or sweet potatoes). They turned out great. When you add a yam to the juice, it makes it taste like a milk shake.

    Here are some of the recipes that I found:

    JoggerÂ’s Paradise

    3 oranges
    2 hard pears
    1 small yam

    Here is a muscle-blasting, power-pushing juice recipe for joggers. Clean blood, clean muscles, and enzyme-rich, nutrient-packed, fuel make for intense aerobic activity. Try this juice out on a five-mile jog. Add a little crushed ice and let your taste buds sing. Sip slowly.


    Flying Orange

    2 pears
    3 pink grapefruit
    1 sweet potato

    A delicious alcohol free party pleaser that will blow both socks off. Ask the host if you can take your juicer to the party. Enjoy an enzyme high without a nasty hangover.


    Taste of Heaven

    2 carrots
    1 sweet potato
    2 apples
    thin slice of Spanish onion
    pinch dulse powder

    He renews our youth—to run and not grow weary. The Lord renews our strength so that we will mount up on wings like eagles. It’s time to let go and let God. To trust, and have hope. He is with you and will never forsake you. And joy shall flow from your heart, like a child.



    AthleteÂ’s Super Fuel

    1/2 watermelon
    1 lemon
    5 oranges
    1 can frozen pineapple concentrate

    So you're just entered the iron man contest. Fixed and resolute, driven and focused, yet child-like and joyful. Strong, yet dependent on God.



    Fantastic Fertility

    3 hard pears
    1 cantaloupe
    1 sweet potato

    A delightful surprise to both men and women is the increased vitality. Juicing cleanses all the organs nutritious juices. God created sex to be enjoyed, giving fulfillment to the sacred bond of marriage.



    Citrus Slurp

    1 grapefruit
    1 orange

    Citrus juice made from a hand citrus juicer and a centrifugal force juice extractor can be quite different. The electric juice extractor produces a thick frothy juice, which is more tart. The quality and the nutritional value of the two are similar so it is only a matter of preference. This is an awesome wake-up and is healthier than coffee. It may take a little more time to make, but you will gain time because of the sharp mind that you will have in whatever you do.



    The Hyper House Cleaner

    2 yams
    1 beet
    1 slice Spanish onion
    2 lemons
    1 celery
    slice of ginger

    So you're ready to clean house, To cut a trail through the kid's bedroom. Get ready for an aerobic house-cleaning workout.



    Pineapple Piper

    1 pineapple
    1 sweet potato
    4 oranges

    As far as taste this has to be one of my favorites. Even the most skeptical taster will be won over by this sweet treat.



    Race Runner

    1 lemon
    2 radish
    1 beet
    1 slice Spanish onion
    2 sweet potato
    1 celery
    2 Tbs. cider vinegar

    A sweet and zingy flavor. Choose raw cider vinegar with mother present. A great detoxifier.

    Red Ice

    1 beet
    1 sweet potato
    2 apples
    1 lemon
    1 tomato
    thin slice of Spanish onion
    1 garlic clove
    1/2 can of frozen apple concentrate

    Crush ice or blend with water till slush. Add juice and get ready to chill out. Cool down those forces of frustration. Be at peace in the storm. This drink is made to refresh your cells like the Spirit is made to refresh your soul. Sit back and consider your blessings. Look at what is with in. You are kind, loving, encouraging, full of hope and at peace. A sign that God is at work within.

    The Pain Remover

    1 lemon
    1 orange
    3 hard pears
    3 apples

    Bruises, aches and sprains can be irritated by a toxic bloodstream and a high-protein diet. But a low-protein, natural diet, lessens irritation and reduces inflammation. Not only does this juice taste delightful, it assists in the healing process. Adam and Eve never woke up stiff with arthritis. Perfect food sustaining perfect bodies. It is our heritage to be healthy and pain free.

    The Brain Stimulator

    1 oranges
    1 hard pears
    1 yam
    1 grapefruit
    1 apple

    Scientists have determined that we use only 10 percent of the brain. Living on coffee and donuts reduces that percentage to 2 percent. Here is a juice to stimulate all of that unused percentage back into activity. For this juice to be effective, you need a five-day juice fast to clear the coffee, donut and junk food residues out of the bloodstream. Once clear, this wide-spectrum, nutrient-rich juice will stir the brain into super-activity. Better memory, sharper thinking and good study techniques are the tools for great marks. No more morning brain fog. Now you can leap out of bed to study while brushing your teeth and preparing for the day.

    Super Duper Spicy Tomato

    3 ripe tomatoes
    1/2 green or red pepper
    1 celery stock
    1 apple
    1 Tbs. Good Tasting Yeast
    1/2 tsp. onion powder
    1/2 Tsp. garlic powder
    1 tsp. Worcestershire
    pinch of freshly ground black pepper
    3 drops Louisiana Hot Sauce (optional for the real man)

    Do you enjoy bungi jumping? How about sky diving? If you have an adventurous personality, then this is the perfect juice for you. When you are fasting, drinking this juice may make you feel like you have just eaten a large pizza. If you are on a cleansing fast, eliminate the good tasting yeast.

    Fabulous Fennel

    1 fennel bulb
    1/2 beet with greens
    2 apples

    If you enjoy the taste of licorice, you will love fennel. This unusual vegetable looks like fat celery with feathers. Fennel helps your eyes to increase in sensitivity, overcoming night blindness. Some have found fennel juice good for relieving migraine headaches.

    Garlic Breath Delight

    2 tomatoes
    2 apples
    1 clove of garlic
    sprig of parsley

    This bacteria buster means business. Garlic reduces blood pressure, helps with the problem of blood clotting, lowering the LDL which increases bad cholesterol. Garlic boosts the immune system and encourages the recovery of heart attack victims. Garlic contains allicin which inhibits bacterial growth and fungus, helping with yeast over-growths, and useful in treating candida. Garlic increases the flow of digestive enzymes and encourages detoxification through the skin. The addition of parsley helps in combating the unpleasant odor of garlic. This juice is worth losing a few friends over.

    The Cancer Killer

    1 beet
    1 carrot
    1 celery stick
    1/2 potato
    1 radish

    Rudolf Breuss's, anticancer mixture has helped thousands of suffering people. This juice blend, during fasting, exerts a death blow on cancer. This was attested by over 24,000 patients who wrote him describing relief from their diseases. His patients were given small amounts of this juice over 42 days. A tea composed of nettle, St. John's wart, marigold, artemisi and monarda was also given. By "starving out" the cancer, Rudolf Breuss reported a 96% success rate for the thousands of patients he treated over 30 years of practice. (Rudolf Breuss died in 1989 at 93 years of age.)

    Its composition is: 55% beet root, 20% celery root, 20% carrot, 3% potato, 2% radish.

    Apple-berry Better Bladder

    </B>

    2 apples
    1 1/4 cups of cranberries

    Cranberry juice is a powerful healing tonic, filled with quinine which changes to hippuric acid in the liver. Hippuric acid is able to assist in the removal of purines, uric acid, urea and toxic build-up in the prostate gland, testicles, kidneys and bladder. An excellent preventative juice for North American men who are battling the increased risk of prostate cancer. It is a wonderful defense against yeast infections for women. Cut apples into wedges, seeds and all.


    The Niagara Falls Cleanser

    1 wedge watermelon
    1/2 lb. red grapes

    Watermelon rind has chlorophyll, vitamin A, protein, potassium, zinc, iodine, nucleic acids and enzymes which aid digestion. Ninety-five percent of the nutritional content in watermelon is in the rind. The seeds may be a little noisy but are harmless to the juicer.

    You may be curious about the name. When you put a sloppy wet piece of watermelon in the juicer it comes out like Niagara Falls. Because watermelon is a great diuretic, your kidneys and bladder will experience a honeymoon of youthful health.

    If you are short on money, watermelon juice is the ticket. You can add just about anything to watermelon juice, so again, we encourage you to have some fun.

    Tom's Favorite

    one cantaloupe
    5 ice cubes
    2 Tbs. of Sucanat
    dash of cinnamon

    Juice the cantaloupe and blend with Sucanat, cinnamon and ice cubes.

    This juice recipe has become our favorite drink. Stunningly refreshing and full of flavor. Has more than 15,000 I.U. of vitamin A and over three times the vitamin C content of an apple. It also contains myoinositol, a lipid which helps with anxiety, insomnia and in battling hardening of the arteries. It also contains the greatest amount of digestive enzymes. Melons are recommended by the American Cancer Society as powerful agents in the fight against intestinal and skin cancer. Cantaloupe contains approximately 100 calories, yet it is dense in nutrients. This makes melon a perfect food for healing and weight loss. Delicious, filling and low in calories.

    Default Anyone tried these?

    I stumbled on RMillers early 2007 "Yam Juice" post when I was doing a search for others in Louisiana. The comments about it tasting like a milk shake - I can't imagine, but I'm curious to try.

    Has anyone tried any of the yam recipes posted here? Or any other yam recipes?

    I have always loved baked sweet potatoes, but find them difficult to cut. Anyone have an easy cutting method?
    When juicing, do you peel first or just cut and place in juicer?

    The website where those recipes came from gave me the idea to juice a yam. And now I LOVE juicing em. I think it's the brain stimulator that I first tried and I don't really like grapefruit so I modified to something like this.

    yam/apple/pear/orange then sometimes I'll add a carrot or two. mmmmmmm
