    Camu Camu is a fruit from the amazon, so it is probably pretty difficult to find. However, if you can, this is a great fruit for juices. Its extremely sour, so isn’t something you want to eat alone. However, adding it to juices makes it fantastic. It’s like lemon juice, but with even more Vitamin C, making it a very healthy option. And, like most acidic juices, it is also very low calorie.

    Orange Camu Camu Juice

    5-10 camu camus
    3 oranges

    Add oranges and camu camus to juicer. I recommend adding some sugar as well, or other fruits that will sweeten this up. Strawberries are a great option, if they are sweet and in season.

    Orange Strawberry Camu Camu Juice

    5 camu camus
    2 oranges
    10-15 strawberries

    Camu Camu-nade

    As you may have imagines, this is like lemonade but made from Camu Camus.  This tastes very similar to lemonade, but has a slight difference in taste, something of a fruitiness to it. Its is extremely refreshing, so perfect for a hot, humid day in the summer.  Also great for those looking for a healthy vitamin C booster, and is also low calorie as long as you don’t  add too much sugar.

    Recipe:

    5 camu camus
    Sugar to taste

    Delicious!!!

    Ginger is possible one of the best fruits for making juices, and goes with many different types of fruit.  This particular juice is quite exotic, not for the fruits that it is made from, but from the flavor they create when juiced together.

    For 4 cups of juice:

    4 pink grapefruits
    16 strawberries
    2 inches of fresh ginger, peeled.

    Add all ingredients to your juicer. The grapefruit should be peeled first. This juice can also be made in a blender, although you may want to strain it before drinking it. It should have a slight kick to it from the ginger, but this is what makes it such a tasty juice. In the summer, this is a very very good juice for quenching thirst. Its also nice in the winter, as the ginger tends to warm you up.

    Perhaps best of all, is this juice is VERY healthy, full of vitamins and anti-oxidants, as well as low-calorie, so is a good optioon if your looking to lose weight fast.

    Enjoy!!

    When it comes to weight loss, juices are ideal, in a similar way that fruits and vegetables are ideal.   Although some fruits are somewhat high in sugars and calories, the way your body processes these fruits makes them perfect for weight loss.

    If you like sweet juices, now is the time to stop drinking processed juices (even if they are “low-calorie” or made with sweetener) and buy yourself a juicer.  This is an important step to begin your weight loss program, and become a much healthier person.   Not only will it help you lose weight, you will also be packing your system full of vitamins, minerals, and anti-oxidants, in a 100% natural way.

    Natural juices are also often used in detox programs.  Although we do not support detox programs for a number of reasons, using fresh juices is a much better option that many other detox programs available.

    Are you planning on using juicing recipes for weight loss?    The best way to do so is choose low calories juices, made with a combination of fruits and vegetables.  That way, you maximize the variety of nutrients you are receiving.  You can use the juices to replace other, less healthier items in your diet, which are higher in calories, and full of “empty” calories.
