8 Benefits of Juicing

Juicing has many health benefits that you can feel almost instantly.   Try to start you day off with a glass of fresh juice consisting of vegetables and fruits and you’ll feel better the entire day!

The Biggest Advantage – If you’re not big into fruits and vegetables, it’s a good way to get them in.  You should still eat fruits and vegetables, too.

Here’s a fantastic infographic on juicing that I think you will love.  It covers 8 benefits and everything you need to know to incorporate juicing into your daily life.

Aim to eat two whole fruits and three to four vegetables a day. Choose them in different colors, so you get a good mix of vitamins and minerals.

If you ever feel like it’s difficult to eat enough veggies, making a small investment in a high-quality juicer is one of the best steps you can take for your health.  You can also use a blender for most whole fruits or vegetables to keep the fiber. Add water if it becomes too thick. You’ll want to remove seeds and rinds, and some skins.

Once your juice is ready, it’s best to drink it the same day you make it, for food safety. Wash your blender or juice machine thoroughly, so it’s ready for your next batch.

Make sure you utilize a variety of fruits and vegetables, colors and types. Try not to store your juice – the sooner you drink it, the better it is.

Three Reasons Why Juicing Is a great Health Habit

There are three main reasons why you will want to consider incorporating vegetable juicing into your optimal health program:

1.  Juicing helps you absorb all the nutrients from the vegetables. This is important because most of us have impaired digestion as a result of making less-than-optimal food choices over many years. This limits your body’s ability to absorb all the nutrients from the vegetables. Juicing will help to “pre-digest” them for you, so you will receive most of the nutrition.

2.  Juicing allows you to consume a healthier amount of vegetables in an efficient manner. Health authorities recommend that we get six to eight servings of vegetables and fruits per day and very few of us actually get that. Juicing is an easy way to virtually guarantee that you will reach your daily target for vegetables.

3.  You can add a wider variety of vegetables in your diet. Many people eat the same vegetable salads or side dishes every day. It is recommended that we rotate food to decrease your chance of developing an allergy to a certain food.  Each vegetable will offer unique benefits. With juicing, you can juice a wide variety of vegetables that you may not normally enjoy eating whole.
