Are there any health benefits to juicing??
Question: I have been told and read that it is beneficial to juice. I always thought that vegetables and fruits are best when consumed raw.
Could somebody clear this up for me?
Answers: Most people juice because you get more of the nutritive benefits (from the juice) without as much of the fiber (to fill you up). That's really the only main benefit over eating the raw fruits/veggies, although some people prefer the taste since they can mix fruits and veggies together.
yes on a daily basis you can get 7 veg and 7 fruits every day .
Of course it is helpful to drink vegetable juice. But is it a panacea and worth all the time and money (very expensive...)? My guess is no.
Of course, you can now buy extracts from vegetable and fruit juices which would eliminate the time invested, but you pay a premium for those products.
You can visit NutritionalTree.com (an unbiased resource for product reviews) and research these kinds of products. Some are good and some seem to be a waste of money.
yes - Fresh fruits and vegetables, preferrably organic. You can more immediately absorb the nutrients. You do lose the fiber though. I've done juice fast before. Was wonderful, but a lot of work.
no if you are going on a juice diet it is medically proven that you will gain weight. it isnt a good idea..
Yes, the juicer predigests the vegetables so to speak and it is absorbed into your system much easier. There are also enzymes in raw fruit and vegetables as well a powerful antioxidents that you get in each swallow of juice not to mention vitamins and minerals. I have read the books of one herbalist (Dr Christopher), who recommends that you chew your juice.
Different foods also contain various healing properties. Carrots for instance work to cleanse the liver (might realize a little diarrhea at first), raw cabbage will work to heal ulcers, celery is a natural diuretic. A good juicing book will give you many interesting details.
I can recommend the website of a gentleman who was diagnosed with colon cancer in his 40's. He is now in his 70's and cured himself with a juice/raw vegetable die. There is a wealth of info on his site.

Absolutely there are benefits to juicing. There are many different books available for you to read (I suggest anything from Rodale Press, Prevention Magazine). Research before hand and discuss with your health practioner (hopefully an alternative healthcare provider)..certain juices should be avoided with certain medications (grapefruit is the major culprit), and grape juice can effect those with sugar problems. There are also many juicers on the market. If losing fiber is an issue for you as with many juice extractors, you may consider using ORGANIC fruits and vegetables, then you can find a juicer that will juice the peels as well.
