How to Get as Many Nutritional Benefits from Juicing as Possible

By Gerry Costenive


Yes - juicing does have beneficial properties that contribute to good health. Unfortunately, there are some detriments to juicing certain fruits and vegetables too. More often than not this has to do with the level of pesticide residue they contain. And that is why it is important to learn as much as you can about juicing, especially if you're a newbie.

One of the best words to describe the act of juicing is efficiency. You can chalk this up to personal opinion but it is really hard to argue with efficiency. Juicing and cooking are both activities that require a certain level of clean up. But consider you can prepare a healthy juice drink for breakfast. This is a breakfast that you can drink on your way to work or school. When you do this, you need to choose your particular ingredients carefully because stomach is empty. You may not want to make a powerhouse juice drink that slams your belly first thing in the morning. But it is going to be guaranteed to kick start your day and that's why it is important to pick ingredients that are gentle on your stomach.

Despite what the marketing says, there are probably only a couple of genuinely unique health benefits that are associated with juicing. That isn't to say, though, that juicing is a bad idea. In fact, juicing is really healthy for you and there is all sorts of evidence backing this up.

It is important that you don't give in to the marketing when it comes to this subject. Juicing is a way of life and it makes it much easier for you to ensure that you have the proper nutrition and, in that way, it is superior to taking a vitamin. It is still a good idea to do both, however--it shouldn't cause a problem. This is the best way to ensure that you are meeting all of your needs and getting the things you need to get.

Juicing gives you much more flexibility and efficiency with getting the important nutrients found in fruits and vegetables. It is also possible to fix a juice to target and center on a specific benefit that you need the most in that moment. Some people juice to give themselves a quick burst of energy. When we talk about flexibility this is what we are talking about.
