Consuming too much kale can cause kidney stones in some cases (you’d have to consume A LOT though). Granted, I’m not a nutritionist or RD, but I haven’t heard any concerns with spinach. If the produce is organic and rinsed clean before juicing, you should be good to go.

I’m new to the whole foods world but it seems I’ve read a lot about cooking kale/spinach prior to consumption. Is there a concern with juicing so much raw kale/spinach?
Thanks for your help!

I have a Breville two-speed Juice Fountain right now, and while it definitely does the job, it’s not the best thing out there. I’ve heard cold press juicers are awesome!

I used to wonder why bother to juice when you can eat fruits outright. Your post makes sense. Through juicing, you can have as much fruits and nutrients in one glass while when eating, you are already full with one or two fruits.

Makes sense to me! I did a juice cleanse a couple months ago and it was one of the best things I ever did. I shared my feelings on it here: http://thehealthycollective.com/2013/07/15/the-juice-box/

I have yet to own a juicer though. Anyone have model recommendations?

I actually LOVE your analogy! It’s true too, I think there are benefits of juicing but also just simply eating whole fruits and veggies. Juicing = more nutrients, whole foods = more fiber and synergy of foods
