Kohlrabi is strong tasting.
Due to the fact that Kohlrabi is a green juice, you will find it beneficial to have no more than about ¼ of your juice consisting of green juice.
General
Kohlrabi is one of those vegetables I hate to eat but I know I should like. People always describe Kohlrabi as cross between the taste of turnips, radishes and cabbage. I personally don't like the taste, but that's why we add carrot or apple juice to help make it taste better!
One thing is for sure, Kohlrabi is a very nutritionally sound vegetable that most of us don't eat enough of. You can grow Kohlrabi yourself and since it grows above ground, it's easy to pick.
Kohlrabi is a weird looking vegetable if you ask me, but there is nothing weird about its benefits to a healthy a lifestyle.
