If you guys are juicing daily, particularly with beets and carrots...Get your blood sugar tested.
I was juicing carrots, beets, and spinach daily. I went in for my mid-50's physical and my fasting glucose was 102! 100-125 is pre-diabetic. I'm not overweight, eat right, and workout hard every day. The doc asked how much fruit I consumed. I told him I juiced carrots and beets daily. He said to stop and retest the glucose in two weeks. New result...84. Perfectly normal. Beets and carrots are VERY high in sugars. Too much of a good thing I guess.
