Does anyone know how to calculate the calories in vegetable juice when you make it at home, in a juicer?
A LOT of the vegetable ends up as pulp on the side, and not in the juice (we use the pulp in other things, like omelets, burgers, and meatloaf).

If I put in, say, 200 calories worth of veggies like carrots, beets, spinach, and such, what portion of calories end up in the juice vs. the pulp?

Most of these types of juices are listed separately in the food lists, so if you do each veg. one at a time and measure amount of each you can mix them together in your cookbook function as a recipe and break it down into serving sizes. At least that is what I would do😊

Don’t over think this, and make it so complicated.. I would just take the full value of whatever the vegetable item is.

8 ounces of V8 vegetable juice is 45 calories. Contains carrots, celery, beets, parsley, lettuce, watercress and spinach juice. I would go with that number.
