Simple & Easy Carrot Juice
Carrots are an economical vegetable which contains 90% water making them extremely easy to juice with. They are easy to mix and match with other fruit and vegetables, so here is a few basic carrot juice recipes to give you some ideas.
How to make Carrot Juice
How to make: Always wash carrots and all other ingredients prior to juicing. Cut top off carrots and peel Citrus Fruits (e.g. oranges, lemons, lime, grape fruit etc). Cut to fit juicer, Juice & Enjoy!
Basic Carrot Juice: All you need to make a standard carrot juice is Carrots, and 4 large carrots will give you roughly one cup (250ml) of juice. You can also add Ginger and Lemon to your juice to give it a bit of a boost.
Just add 1 tablespoon Ginger and 1/2 peeled lemon, and you'll have a refreshing Juice! Ginger may be a bit of an acquired taste, so depending on your liking you may wish to add more or less. I commonly add ginger to my juices, and to my cooking in general, as I enjoy the strong flavor it gives.

Nutritional benefits
of Carrots
So if looking to loose weight on a big scale, carrots should only be used in moderation, as they are a member of the High Carb vegetable group (e.g. potatoes, pees, corn, beets). However they are still a much better choice than a chocolate bar, so keep it in perspective :-)
One of the greatest benefits of eating/juicing Carrots is the improvement of eyesight and cleansing of the liver. Carrots are a great source of vitamins such as Vitamin A (via Beta carotene), K & C, and is an easy all round vegetable to juice and cook with.
So let's get started!
