Juicing is one of the four components of the Gerson Therapy.
The hourly fresh and organic juices are flooding the body with live, active nutrients, eliminating toxins and restoring the cellular function.
On the full therapy, the Gerson Patient drinks 13 x 8oz fresh juices daily:
1 orange, 4 green, 5 carrot/apple, and 3 carrot juices
ORANGE JUICE
Ingredients for 8 oz / 236 ml Orange Juice:
- 2 organic oranges
Unlike the other juices for the Gerson Therapy, the orange juice should not be prepared in your two-step juice machine so the skin of the fruit to does not release any aromatic oils, which can interfere with the Gerson Therapy.
Instead of using your PURE Juicer for the morning juice, use a simple manual reamer-style citrus juicer.
In cases of diabetes, arthritis and inflammatory/allergic conditions, Gerson Practitioners often substitute the orange juice for another carrot/apple juice.
(Patients work out their individual protocol with their Gerson Therapy Practitioners.)
GREEN JUICE
Ingredients for 8 oz / 236 ml Green Juice:
- 6-7 big leaves (with stalk) of romaine
- Red leaf lettuce
- 2-3 leaves of escarole
- 2-3 leave of endive
- 3-4 leaves of red cabbage
- 2-3 young inner beet tops (inner leaves)
- 2 leaves of Swiss chard
- A quarter of a green bell pepper
- 3-4 leaves of watercress
- 1 medium green apple, Granny Smith or as sour and hard as possible
Try to include as many of the ingredients as possible and do not substitute.
Add enough of the approved ingredients to end up with an 8 ounce green juice.
Wash all the produce. Cut the apples and leave the core and the seeds out.
Grind your produce into the wet pulp while feeding your produce in the feed tube. Always rotate your produce, since mixing apples with any vegetable boosts all nutrients above what they measure individually.
You can roll up smaller produce into the bigger leaves. Insert the pusher into the feed tube and turn the juicer on. Push the produce through.
When using a press bag, the wet ground up produce falls directly into the bag. Fold the bag and transfer it over to the tray. Place the bag in the middle of the tray.
When using a press cloth, the wet ground up falls directly on the open cloth placed on a tray or baking pan. Fold the cloth according to the directions and transfer it over to the tray. Place the cloth in the middle of the tray.
CARROT/APPLE JUICE
Ingredients for 8 oz / 236 ml Carrot/Apple Juice:
- 3-4 organic carrots
- 1 large green apple, Granny Smith or as sour and tart as possible
Wash and brush the carrots. Do not peel them. Cut the ends of the carrots off.
Wash the apples and remove the stem. Cut the apples and leave the core and the seeds out.
CARROT JUICE
Ingredients for 8 oz / 236 ml Orange Juice:
- 5-6 organic carrots
Wash and brush the carrots. Do not peel them. Cut the ends of the carrots off.
