Is adding oil to juice beneficial in any way?Many people are apparently advocating this practice. So, is adding oil to juice beneficial, it is if your goal is to decrease glucose absorption. Let’s walk through it.
In biochemistry and cellular biology, there are two distinct conditions that are necessary for life to exist. Lipid or fat-soluble versus aqueous or water soluble. These two factors allow for the separation of functions since they serve as barriers necessary for different compartments (functional units) to co-exist.
Membranes (lipids) separate cells from other cells and separate intracellular organelles (functional units) from each other. Without this separation, there could only be one set of functions and since the body is engaged in approximately 1 septillion (a number followed by 24 zeros) chemical reactions per second, an exceedingly large number of functional units must co-exist.
The concept of fat-soluble when being considered with regards to food simply means this. When fats are being digested and assimilated, certain specific sets of physiological and biochemical functions/reactions are set in motion. In comparison, very different functions/reactions are associated with ingested water-soluble substances.
Clearly, if one is eating fat, then fat processing is turned on. This is where it would be advantageous to take fat-soluble vitamins such as vitamin A or E or D as they would be efficiently and quickly processed.
If water-soluble vitamins were ingested, they would have to “wait”. And the opposite holds true for when water-soluble substances are being processed, the fat-soluble vitamins would have to “wait”.
To process fats, a certain pH is required in the duodenum. The biliary system in the liver and gallbladder would be activated, whereas if fat is not being ingested, other processes requiring a different pH and different sets of enzymes would be activated.
It clearly follows that if both fat and water-soluble substances are being ingested simultaneously, these two systems would both have to be partially activated hence diluting the efficiency of each system.
If one is drinking juices that are mostly water-soluble, then ingesting fat would slow down digestion. This can actually be of benefit in some instances.
For example, if one is eating a high glucose meal and they want to slow the rate of absorption, then all they have to do is add fats. The decrease in glucose absorption results in a slower increase in blood glucose. This translates into a decreased need for insulin and all the deleterious effects associated with high insulin.
In fact, that would be the only logical reason for someone to purposely combine fats (oils) with vegetable or fruit juices. But certainly, ingesting oils with juice in no way enhances digestion or absorption, but rather impairs (or slows) the process.
Green juice feasting is a very important part of our comprehensive cancer care program at our healing center, An Oasis of Healing. Every person that visits us starts off with a specific protocol of green juicing and then we transition people to an organic whole food raw vegan diet. However, green juice remains part of their diet.

Physicians at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore have performed the first total penis and scrotum transplant in the world, the hospital announced on Monday.
The surgery, which took place over 14 hours on March 26, was performed by a team of nine plastic surgeons and two urological surgeons. The penis and scrotum (without testicles) and partial abdominal wall came from a deceased donor. The recipient is a military veteran who was injured by an improvised explosive device (IED) blast in Afghanistan and wishes to remain anonymous. The hospital said he has recovered from the surgery and will be discharged from the hospital this week.
“It’s a real mind-boggling injury to suffer, it is not an easy one to accept,” the transplant recipient said in a statement released by Johns Hopkins. “When I first woke up, I felt finally more normal… [with] a level of confidence as well. Confidence… like finally I’m okay now.”
The procedure is the second penis transplant to be publicly reported in the United States, but the first full transplant of this kind. In 2016, surgeons at Massachusetts General Hospital performed the first penis transplant in the U.S. on a man who had his penis amputated due to penile cancer.

The Johns Hopkins team has been planning for penis transplant procedures for years, with the goal of eventually helping wounded veterans. A 2016 report found that from 2001 to 2013, 1,367 men in the United States military suffered injuries to their genitals or urinary tract in Iraq or Afghanistan. The report also found that most of the injuries were caused by bomb blasts, and over a third were considered severe. Among the injured men, 94% were age 35 or younger. “Many men sustained disfiguring genital injuries during their peak years of sexual development and reproductive potential,” researchers wrote in the 2016 report.
A penis transplant is a complicated procedure that includes connecting all the arteries, veins, nerves, the skin and the urethra to the recipient. Each penis removal and injury can be different depending on which parts are removed, but surgeons hope that for at least some men, sexual function can be restored. “We are hopeful that this transplant will help restore near-normal urinary and sexual functions for this young man,” Dr. W.P. Andrew Lee, professor and director of plastic and reconstructive surgery at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, said in a statement. Other men are now undergoing screening for the procedure, Lee said in a news conference.
The Johns Hopkins team decided not to transplant the donor’s testicles because such a transplant could allow genetic material to be passed on from the donor. The hospital said there are too many unanswered ethical questions surrounding that kind of transplant.
Penis transplants are estimated to cost $50,000 to $75,000. As of now, hospitals are largely footing the bills. Since the procedures are still considered experimental, they are not covered by insurance. Johns Hopkins covered the cost of the veteran’s transplant, and the doctors there are in the process of applying for a research grant that would offer coverage for further procedures.
