Juicing is becoming a very popular diet supplement for all those health fanatics out there. We would like to share with you our favourite tips, to make sure you’re getting the most out of your colourful concoctions.
Are you making these common juicing mistakes?
- Not drinking on an empty stomach – It important you consume your juice 2 hours after or 20 minutes before a meal. This way your stomach can absorb the nutrients easier and the vitamins and minerals will go straight into your bloodstream.
- Waiting too long to drink your juice – As soon as your freshly made green juice gets exposed to air, its live enzymes begin to degrade, therefore decreasing the nutritional content.
- Using lots of sweet fruit and vegetables in your juice – Sweet fruits and vegetables like watermelon, apples, pears, and carrots are very nutritious when consumed whole, but if you consume too many of them juiced, the amount of sugar and fructose you are adding to your diet could be over the top.
- Treating juice like a meal – Juice isn’t a meal replacement, rather it is a meal enhancer or snack.
Or maybe you’ve not yet been introduced to the world of juicing. If so, here are our top 3 reasons to get started:
- Gentle on your digestion – Juice is infinitely easier for your digestive system to work with and process, meaning the nutrients get to your system without a whole lot of effort.
- Raw is better – The healthiest foods, when consumed as a juice, are at their states of highest quality as far as vitamin and mineral counts go.
- Health benefits – Needless to say, a slew of health benefits go along with a consistent juicing diet. Fruits and vegetables contain critical vitamins that improve skin health, hair and nail health, sleep, moods, senses, and immune systems, just to name a few.
