Nutritiondata.com and similar sites are great for deriving the nutritional content of vegetables or the juices of common vegetables (carrot juice, tomato juice, etc.) but finding the nutritional content of romaine juice or kale juice juice seems impossible. When you remove the fiber from a vegetable surely it must reduce the nutritional content enough to make the analyses meant for whole greens inaccurate for the juices. Does anyone know of a site that gives you nutrition for green juices?
I was in my local co-op today and ordered a green juice. It was celery, spinach, kale, cucumber and wheatgrass. I noticed when she put the kale into the juicer, hardly any juice came out. I wonder how to get the most "juice" from kale.
It probably depends mostly on what type of juicer was used. The auger type is supposed to be the best. I have the Jack Lalanne Power Juicer, which juices by basically shredding the vegetables/fruits. I find that it does a poor job juicing small items like parsley (it's good with lettuces though). I think augers are better at introducing less oxygen into the process, but I found mine to be a pain to clean.
