Here's a closer look at five fruits you should avoid when juicing.

One of the least healthy options you have for a fruit, both in the glass and in a meal, is banana.

If you'd rather go natural and not worry about the synthetic chemicals found in commercial apples, bananas, or guava juices, try peach and pear smoothie recipes. Made with peach juice, pear juice, and apple cider vinegar, this drink will refresh you and tastes much like a traditional smoothie.

You can use the smoothie in place of traditional fruit smoothies or mix it with orange juice instead. Add some fresh strawberries or blueberries for a boost of sugary flavor.

If you're not into banana or blueberries, or maybe you don't like the taste of the nonfat plain yogurt, raspberries, or ice, try making a strawberry and banana hybrid called strawberry-banana hybrid. Blend strawberries, bananas, and nonfat plain yogurt, then drizzle with some melted vegan margarine or semi-frosted vegan cake mix before serving. This juice is great as a snack or for dessert, or even as an addition to recipes. You can add frozen blueberries or strawberries to the mix for a delicious berry smoothie, or you could add some frozen strawberries to a bowl of soup or stew to get a nice creamy flavor. Make sure to add plenty of water so the mixture stays smooth and does not curdle, and enjoy!
