You’ve heard the talk. Yes, everyone’s juicing but you.
So, what’s the deal? Well, here it is: juicing takes all the fiber out of your favorite fruits and veggies so all that’s left is the good stuff.
I know, you’re thinking, What? I thought fiber was good for you. I’m supposed to increase my fiber intake, right? Well, yes…sort of.
Here’s the thing—it’s nearly impossible for us to get the daily dose of vitamins and minerals our bodies need through the food that we eat in a 24 hour period. Juicing makes it easier.
Of course, you can take supplements. In fact, you probably should take supplements. However, fresh fruit and/or vegetable juice absorbs more easily into your system, increasing your body’s ability to utilize all those vitamins and minerals.
Juicing is also much easier on your digestive system. The less energy your body has to use digesting food, the more you will have left over for other things like running, jumping, laughing, and living.
Those battling disease often incorporate juicing into their plan for recovery, allowing their bodies the energy needed to heal.
