Plentiful Benefits of Juice

Have Some Today!

There’s no doubt about the benefits of juice. With the arrival of noni, mangosteen, goji, acai, and other health drinks, evidence has grown about the extraordinary effects of fruit and vegetable juices.

For your good health, nutritionists recommend a daily intake of 8–10 servings of fruits and vegetable. But with all that peeling, cutting, chewing (if eating in raw form), and cooking (required for vegetables), consuming that many fruits and veggies can become a time-consuming chore in today’s fast-paced, eat-on-the-run lifestyle.

Besides, not everyone can readily digest that much insoluble fiber from fruits/vegetables, which if not chewed thoroughly can upset the stomach and cause a feeling of bloating.

Thrive from the wonderful juice benefits!

Substituting a part of your natural foods intake with freshly prepared juices offers the perfect solution in this scenario! The benefits of juice pack the entire goodness of the whole fruits/vegetables in a compact, easy-to-consume, nutrients-dense, and easily digestible form.

Yes, you might lose out a bit on fiber, but that loss can be easily made up by other means - like switching to wholegrain breads or by eating one or two whole fruits.

What ARE some of the many pluses of juice?

Fresh fruits/vegetables juices, being fat-free, and cholesterol-free, while remaining micronutrients-rich, are an ideal food supplement. Here are some of the benefits of juice:

  • Juices are a rich and delicious source of vitamins and minerals, which are essential for normal growth and well-being.

  • They are loaded with hundreds of disease-fighting and health-promoting phytochemicals like flavonoids, carotenoids, vegetal hormones, sterols, indoles, and even antibiotic substances.

  • Juices are packed with antioxidants like beta carotene, vitamin C, vitamin E, and selenium, which protect the cell membranes from free-radicals damage and a host of diseases arising there from (for example, Alzheimer’s disease, cancer, and heart disease).

  • They are really helpful in balancing the acidic conditions in the stomach, the root cause of many diseases. They also help eliminate toxins from the system and detoxify the body such as aloe vera juice for detoxification.

    How about fruits and veggies in my fridge?

    At home, you probably already have wonderful sources of natural goodness. Fruits and vegetables like cranberry, grapefruit, tomato, and carrot are good for your health, so it's great if you have this type of selection in your fridge.

    Some other reasons you really should consider incorporating the benefits of juice into your diet are:

    1. It's much more convenient to consume more vegetables and fruits, especially veggies, by drinking rather than by eating.

    2. Juicing action helps the body absorb more nutrients, more efficiently.

    3. Juicing the vegetables helps preserve their vitamins, many of which get destroyed while cooking.

    4. Juicing allows you to eat various vegetables/fruits at one time.

    If you are looking for an easy and effective way to experience the benefits of juice, consider juice fasting.

    One word of warning: Since fruit juices in particular are dense in sugar content, they raise the insulin level rapidly and so must be consumed in controlled amounts, especially if you have diabetes-related problems.

    Also, juices from cans or cartons aren't as rich in nutrients as fresh juices which are full of live enzymes.

    It's tough to imagine why a person would prefer to reach for a soft drink instead of a refreshing, healthy drink of juice. Today is an ideal day to start a new, natural habit from the benefits of juice!
