I've tried a number of juicers over the years, and am currently rocking out the Jay Kordich PGP juicer. I like it because it juices greens as well as hard veggies, makes nut milks, and is a breeze to clean up afterwards. That said, I don't really promote any specific brand/model of juicer, as I've always felt that the best juicer for any person is the one they'll use every day. I've seen good juicers from Omega, Hurom, Kuvings, Breville, and others. But no juicers are perfect...each has their own set of pros & cons.What brand/model juicer do you use?
Yes, coconut oil is nice to use in things, although I don't add it to juices. Its nice in smoothies, tho!To get more effect from juicing, blend your juice with coconut oil before consuming, but never heat it.
Good to hear that you've had some success so far, from cannabis. I was using inhaled/ingested cannabis for many years alongside my meds, as part of my overall health plan, although I never started thinking about cannabis the way I do now, until after I watched the docu, "Leaf". I was basically thinking of cannabis primarily as pain-control, and was inhaling many oz's a month, to "hammer down" the symptoms of the disease somewhat. I do feel that it was helpful, as I didnt need to take as many opiates along with my anti-rheum meds. But I still got flareups and had to beat them back with yuckies, like MTX and Pred. But I hated my life, as those meds wreaked havoc on my system, and it was always a balance between their effectiveness and the side effects, which were quite strong for me. It wasnt until I got less than favourable bloodwork results while on MTX that I was jolted into trying to find a different solution than the current path I was on.I was on biologicals before (Embrel, Humira, Remicade, Simponi). I have dropped almost all medication since I started eating cannabis. My health was slowly getting much better before the humidity came in. It didn't really help with psoriasis but I was almost able to walk normally without any meds at all. Even the blood tests showed improvement. I was and still am amazed. And this was with a normal strain! Now I am taking a very low dose of anti rheumatic meds along with cannabis.
Overall and considering the weather I think I'm still doing pretty good. I am taking much less meds than I would "normally". The psoriasis is pretty much inactive. It's there but it's not getting worse.
It's really hard to say what's going on because I have been on so many different meds before. Keeping track and order without a journal is not easy. I have to say that some of the biological meds were very effective for a time. Had some strange side effects tho. Humira had no effect at all, Remicade had a devastating effect on some muscles. For example I wasn't able to lift 1 kilogram with one hand at a point... And Simponi I'm not even sure what that did. Nothing good that's sure. Embrel was the best but was the most annoying to apply. Not to mention Methotrexate.
I have tried many different herbs, teas, tinctures. Nothing really helped. I'm going to try turmeric now. Seems this can be easily mixed with cannabutter as well.
Please I am very interested in any good advice or recipies and I am really happy I have stumbled upon this thread.
Thank you KineBoisin420
