Top 5 Benefits of Juicing
TOP 5 BENEFITS TO JUICING
The benefits of juicing are vast, and picking my top 5 ain’t easy.
What is easy, is your body’s ability to absorb the vitamins and nutrients from every sip of fresh pressed juice. When you extract juice from fruits and veggies, all those glorious nutrients are ripe and ready for the taking. And that’s exactly what your body does. It takes them! Your body absorbs the vitamins, nutrients, and minerals from fresh fruits and veggies, then sends them off to the trillions of cells that make you, YOU. Re-generating new cells built with the life force of plants.
Meanwhile you and your digestive system are just chilling out, not having to do any of the work to break down and digest anything! Your digestive system is at rest, thus giving your body even more energy to heal, alkalize, reduce inflammation and balance out. And with all of that gorgeous nutrition re-generating your cells and healing your body on the inside, it starts to show on the outside as well - your glowing skin, your bright eyes, your healthy hair and the pep in your step that all come from ingesting the plethora of goodness that juicing provides.
Juicing is an incredible way to enjoy the vitamins, nutrients, minerals found in fruits and vegetable, giving your body the high-vibration fuel it craves.
1. IMPROVES DIGESTION
and gives your body a break!
Your digestive system is working harder than any other function your body. Give your friend a break already! Since juice is free from pulp/fibre, there is nothing to digest. Your body ingests all of the concentrated nutrients and minerals while your digestive system is chilling out.
The power of giving your digestive system longer periods of rest has long been proven. Add to the healing power of rest, the healing power of raw plant nutrients is like doubling down on your health. And since a healthy diet rich in the vitamins from fruits and veggies promotes a healthy gut, juicing allows you to ingest more of those vitamins than you otherwise would from a typical meal/snack.

2. INCREASE IN ENERGY
and the potential for weight loss
When that afternoon energy lull arrives, enjoying a fresh juice can give you the energy push you need. I like to call this the enzyme energy! Enzymes are the life force of plants, only found in raw fruits and veggies, it makes sense that ingesting them gives you an energetic burst.
With a fresh juice, there is no caffeine crash a few hours later, and no energetic slump that can follow a heavy meal. Juicing gives you a body of nutrition, hydrates your cells, and takes away tiredness and fatigue in a natural way.
A lot of people on a weight loss journey are looking to add more fruits and vegetable to their diet and this a great way to do it. The more you eat, the more you crave! Plus, by hydrating your body, reducing stress and inflammation in the body, aiding in more energy to exercise and better sleep, the recipe for successful weight loss is set.
3. CONCENTRATED NUTRITION
and an increase in vitamins and nutrients to your diet
Imagine what 2-3 pounds of produce looks like. It’s a lot! More than what would go into a large salad and serving of fruit for dessert. That’s what you get in each 16oz serving of juice. Juicing extracts all of the nutrients from fruits and veggies and your body absorbs it easily, making it an incredibly effective way to improve your health and well being.
4. DECREASE IN INFLAMMATION
and helps to fight disease
With the root causes of inflammation being an overload of acid in your body, balancing that acid with alkaline foods is key to optimal health. Acidic is primarily caused by dairy, meat, processed foods, sugar, coffee, alcohol and stress. Inflammation damages your cells and arteries and causes a host of problems. Reducing inflammation is with anti-inflammatory foods and alkaline juices can help bring your body into a balanced state of bliss.
With the most alkaline foods being fruits, veggies, leafy greens, juicing is the perfect antidote to acid in the body.
