Follow These Ideas for Juicing Success



Most Americans do not eat enough fruits and vegetables. A great way to make sure you get all the nutrients your body requires is to make delicious fresh fruit and veggie juice. Here are some tips to get you started.

Don't feel you have to go out and buy the entire produce section to make a healthy juice. Normally 3 or 4 items is all it will take to have a highly nutritious drink that's loaded with vitamins and minerals. And, to sweeten your veggie juice a little, try throwing in a green apple.

Cucumber juice has been shown to be beneficial for both your hair and your skin. There is a lot of silica in cucumbers. Tendons, ligaments, bones, muscles and connective tissue all benefit from a healthy intake of silica.

I can't stress enough how important it is to make and consume a lot of green juice made from items like kale, spinach and broccoli. These green veggies contain an awesome amount of vitamins and minerals and make the most impact on your overall health. Try to avoid really sugary items like mango and pineapple.

The best thing you can do is to drink your fresh juice as soon as you've made it. The longer juice sits the more of its nutrients break down so you won't get the full benefit. This is not always possible, I know, so if you have to make your juice in advance, use glass mason jars to store it.

Juicing is wonderful when it comes to fighting some kinds of infections. If you feel you have a bladder infection coming on, juicing is a great idea to get rid of it quick. Add some cranberries to your juicing recipes to help knock out the infection.

As mentioned, green juices are an ideal source of nutrients and vitamins. And you can dress up the flavors in many different ways. Add an apple, maybe a lime, and my personal favorite, a large chunk of ginger. Ginger also has many medicinal uses and gives a great bit of spice to your juice.

Try using a masticating type of juicer. This type of juice machine will gently extract the juice and help retain more nutrients in the juice. Juice your produce with a masticating juicer can also be stored.

My wish is that this article has made you want to give juicing a try. It's a particularly great way to make sure your kids get enough fruits and veggies into their. Remember to go green when juicing and, if possible, drink the juice immediately.
