Hello,
I started juicing about 6 months ago. I have the Omega 400 VRT juicer and use mostly veggies with some fruit to make the juice somewhat palatable. I stopped taking my two cholesterol drugs (which were causing me to be overly tired and very achy) at the same time I started juicing in hopes the juicing would eliminate the need for these drugs.
My most recent lab work shows a borderline diabetes as well as cholesterol way out of the normal range in every possible way. (the bad cholesterol is too high, the good cholesterol too low etc.) I am now starting to question whether the benefits of juicing outweigh the side effects of cholesterol drugs. My diet has not changed at all. In addition to juicing, I eat veggies for lunch and at every meal and fruit for snacking. Any thoughts? Comments? Thank you!
