No, V8 splash is a tomato-based veggie juice, it's not the same as 100 % pure carrot juice and won't have the same effect!Justicewifey said:I know I'm somewhere mixed in these pages but I fell off. I'm getting back on and I wanted to ask does V8 Splash count
NoNapNique said:I just started on this, but I was wondering... How many ounces a day is recommended for hair growth. I have been drinking 4 oz. in the morning w/my vitamins.
I already have started turning my usual "winter pale", so I just don't want to end up drinking so much that I turn orange on top of it

I large carrot is good. However, carrot juice goes directly to the bloodstream so the body can process it right away. Eating a carrot requires digestion so it's a slower process.foxybrownsugar said:I would like to join this challenge. I eat one large carrot daily as part of the Qu.I.Challenge. I hope this is ok.
joyous said:Well Isis, I didn't join the challenge but for the past week I've been drinking carrot,celery and spinach juice and my skin has cleared up and no new breakouts. I'm going to continue this for the next few weeks and I'll let you know if I see improved benefits with my hair.

A daily glass of carrot and spinach juice gives vital nutrients to the roots of the hair, thereby preventing hair loss and actually restoring your natural hair color. Juices provide the vitamins, enzymes, minerals and trace elements which go into the formation of hair. Adding cucumbers to the carrot and spinach juice also promotes hair growth as it is high in silicon and sulfur.
thanx for the info. I will probably alternate btw eating and drinking carrots because im already blending berries & banana for breakfast.Isis said:I large carrot is good.

I still drink my two ounces of carrot juice daily as a way of life more than a challenge. I find myself buying the carrot juice these days more than juicing it though, mainly because of being busy. :fat:

I haven't heard any feedback from those taking beta carotene supplements but it's healthy too. The hair (and skin) benefits come from everything in the carrot juice, not just the beta carotene. It has all of the B vitamins, and a list of other important minerals including calcium.BerrySweet said:The growth comes from the beta carotene in the carrots correct? Could I be on the challenge if I take beta carotene supplements? Drinking carrot juice is tooo expensive and too nasty for me lol.
