    Default Beginner juicer--calorie/carbs question

    Heyall, I'm new to the forum and new to juicing. I haven't actually juiced anything yet since my green star elite doesn't get to me until next week I do have a question though, maybe it's obvious.

    When you juice something do you lose any calories or carbs? So if I juice 10 carrots, would I count the juice as having the same amount of calories and carbs as the whole carrot, prior to juicing? (I realize there would be no undigestable carbs in the juiced product)

    Thanks

    Matt

    now that wasn't very helpful to the question was it...

    so 1 carrot 7 1/2" (72g) = 30 cal
    carrot juice (75g) = 30 cal

    based on gram weigh carrot juice has slightly less calories... hope that THIS helps you...
