Question: how long is freshly made carrot juice good for? I made some carrot juice a couple of days ago with a juicer, fresh organic carrots with celery, parsley, an apple, and lots of ginger. I made too much and put the rest in a plastic soda bottle. How long before it goes bad?

Answer: I have tried it and it tastes terrible from the instant it is made. So as far as I am concerned it is not good from the first moment. If you are asking how long it will keep under refrigeration I would say just a few days since it lacks preservatives.

Question: Can drinking too much fresh carrot juice turn your skin orange? My parents and I have started juicing in the last week. We are drinking fresh carrot juice. I heard somewhere that if you drink too much carrot juice that your skin can turn orange. Is this just a myth or is it true?

Answer: My husband's friend in High school did this and his skin did turn orange. His Dad bought a huge bag of carrots and juiced them every day and fed all of the family. The worst part was that they all had red hair, so they had orange skin to go along with their red hair. lol

Question: How can I make carrot juice without using a juicer? How can I make carrot juice without using a juicer? I have a food processor and a blender.

Answer: yes you can... , cut carrots into a small dice, add to food processor and add just enough water to get the mixture moving. blend for 4-5 mins until mixture is very smooth season with sugar or whatever flavors you want in it. line a siv with cheese cloth over a measuring cup and add carrot puree.

( i have done this with tomatoes before and made tomato cocktails; worked for me)

Question: Is Odwalla carrot juice a good alternative for toddlers who refuse veggies? Can a few ounces of carrot juice give her the recommended daily amount for her veggies? She loves fruits and I can get her to have broccoli maybe three times a week but refuses carrots unless it's juice form. The carrot juice has 400% vitamin A per each 8 oz serving and she has 4 ounces a day plus3 ounces of OJ in the morning? I'm a first time mother and am obsessed with keeping her healthy so somebody PLEASE calm my head down about this. Thanks

Answer: Don't boil carrots. boiling food destroys the goodness of it. Carrot juice alone will not give your chilad what she needs. Have you considered a childrens liquid vitamin? The right one will give her the vitamins and minerals she needs. Let me know if I can help you at all. By the way, check out the youtube video for more about what the body needs.

Question: How do you get the carrot pulp out of the grater of the large juice extractor? I have a big juice extractor which I use to make fresh carrot juice, but when I have finished juicing the carrots and pull apart the juicer I cannot get all the fine carrot pieces from the sharp grater. I have tried just soaking it in water first.

Answer: i would let it dry out then tap it on the counter and the dried carrot-powder-grateings would fall out. anything left over i was stuck with and just let it be.

Question: Can I freeze freshly made carrot juice? Sometimes it is a lot of work to make 1 glass of fresh carrot juice. I would like to be able to make a little extra and freeze it if possible. Does anyone know if this can be done, and, if it can, is there any loss of taste or texture by doing so?

Answer: Yes...but don't put it in there for too long because a layer of ice crytals on the top. If that happens it will taste diluted so I recommend you only storing it for a little while.

Question: How do you make carrot juice taste better? I like eating carrots but I recently bought a gallon of carrot juice because I need a lot of vitamin A. But it makes me cringe. I do not like it at all. I could even say it's disgusting. How do you make it taste better? Is there anything you can add?

Answer: Well firstly a fresh carrot that is uncooked or not juiced will provide almost no vitamin A to your body, the heavy amounts of fiber prevent the absorption that's why juicing them is so good. As for flavor you could try my recipe that I have each morning. 1 orange, 2 carrots, 1 apple, a cucumber, celery, and beetroot juice all combined it refreshing or you could just add some apple or orange juice to sweeten it. Also if you want to be particularly cheap just buy some straws and drink it down your throat so you won't have to taste it.

Question: How do you make carrot juice? I'm looking to lose some weight and eat a little healthier, and I love carrots, so does anybody no how to make carrot juice? I didn't think it was just blended carrots. And are there any other healthy dishes or tips you have for me eating healthier? Do you reccommend me drinking carrot juice daily?

Answer: You will need to buy a juicer. Here is a site that compares juicers: http://www.consumersearch.com/juicers Walmart has some too. Here are some veggie juice recipies: http://www.soymilkquick.com/vegetablejuicerecipes.php Carrots have a sugar in them so don't over do it. I would recommend making vegetable juice blends with carrot juice as a base. Don't drink V8 a lot, it has too much sodium. I use sea salt instead of regular salt. It really doesn't have lower sodium, but the flavor, to me, is better and I tend to use less than regular salt. Plus there are no additives in sea salt. For eating healthier.. don't diet. Just cut out or lower pre made foods, especially fast foods and increase your darker green vegetables. Eat more vegetables than meat at meals. And oatmeal for breakfast is great for losing weight. It will keep you fuller longer.

Question: Where can I order reasonably priced carrot juice in bulk online? I am addicted to carrot juice, and my local grocers are always out of stock! Help me!

Answer: But carrot juice is SO easy to juice at home with a basic juicer and carrots are cheap, cheap, cheap. In fact, you can get something like a 25 pound bag from your grocer ( horse people special order them for their horsies) for...i forget, but it's ridiculously low. I want to say five bucks. Even organic carrots aren't that expensive. I usually get a carrot orange juice if I am on the road (it's one of the only juices they'll do FRESH at those juice chains), but at home, I make my own. 25 pounds of oranges is $9 and I'll spend that much on two fresh oj's at a juice place. Rip off! The money you'd save would pay for a juicer in no time. PLUS, you'd be getting fresh juice with all the vitamins and minerals. Bottled juice is almost always (very, very rare exceptions) flash pastuerized so that kills off vitamins and enzymes plus the longer it sits the less helthy the juice becomes. GO FRESH! Get a juicer. Just a suggestion!

Question: What should I mix with carrot juice? I have organic carrot juice at home but hardly anyone will drink it plain. I've heard if you mix it with different juices and ingredients it will taste better. I'm not sure exactly what to mix with it so what should I? -TeaDalhia

Answer: Nestle Quick

Question: Can I feed a guinea pig carrot juice or any other juice? I don't want to feed my guinea pig anything that is unsafe for it. So, I want to know if I can feed it juice? Carrot juice? Orange juice? Grapefruit juice? Apple juice? Thanks!

Answer: Don't feed it anything with lots of sugar or anything too acidy... orange, grapefruit etc will cause a stomach upset because of the acid and most other drinks have sugar. Cranberry juice is fine, but only if it's 100% juice with nothing else added. And it should only be given rarely.

Question: What is a good liquid base for a carrot juice smoothie? I am wanting to make a carrot juice smoothie but I'm not sure what to use as the liquid. Would chicken broth be okay? Or do you know of something better? Using RAW carrots only. Stupid person who put "carrot juice". I'm trying to MAKE carrot juice.

Answer: carrot-smoothie recipe I'm seeing more healthy commercial establishments like "juice bars" lately and wanted to add this recipe, which can be modified as you wish. Carrot Smoothie If you have a juice extractor, use 5-6 carrots, tips removed and peeled if not organic, cut into chucks OR 2 cups fresh carrot juice Pour juice into blender and mix with yogurt (plain, vanilla or flavored) and/or frozen or fresh banana. I even added a few fresh mint leaves when I juiced my carrots. The banana and yogurt make the smoothie thick; otherwise, carrots with some celery juice or apple juice is also very good. http://www.smoothieweb.com/category/vegetable-smoothies/
