Here’s more from Erin Schumacher about juicing:

Are you experiencing the level of energy and good health you desire? If you’re like most people, you could use an energetic boost! Green juices could be your answer to start getting results. Find out for yourself why thousands of people are turning to green juices for more energy, better health, detox and weight loss!

There are many benefits of juicing and that was part of the reason I went on a journey of 40 days of juicing! For 40 days I drank nothing but fruit and vegetable juice, water, tea, and kombucha. Occasionally I added in certain organic, cold-pressed oils and avocado to supply my body with the fat it needed to stay healthy and support a healthy detoxification.

To go on a 40 day Juice Feast is no small feat and it’s not something I’d suggest to just anyone. You need to be already at a certain level of health to embark on a cleanse like this one. However, when one adds in even just one vegetable juice to their daily routine, the benefits start to stack up! But before we get into the benefits, lets answer a couple of other questions first.

First of all – What is juicing and how do you do it?

A juicer separates the fibrous pulp of vegetables (and harder fruits) from the liquid, which contains all the vitamins and minerals; this is called a juice. Most juicers can easily juice a variety of harder fruits and vegetables including (but definitely not limited to): kale, cucumbers, carrots, celery, beets, ginger, garlic, radishes, swiss chard, bok choy, broccoli, sweet potatoes, and apples. There are a variety of juicer types on the market (see informational video here) that operate in slightly different fashions from each other. But the result is the same: pure vitamins and minerals extracted from the vegetables in liquid form that is easily absorbed straight into the blood stream.


How is juicing different from fasting?

Fasting is the complete abstinence from all food and nutrients in any form while drinking water according to thirst. There are definitely many benefits of fasting (just like juicing), however a water fast must be properly supervised by a trained practitioner. In addition, when one is fasting, you’ll want to be resting both body and mind. Juicing on the other hand can mean a variety of things. You can simply be adding juices into your diet while continuing to eat food. Or you can partake on a juice feast (as opposed to a juice fast) where you consume as much juice as you desire and remove food from your diet! This continues to provide the body with nutrients and calories so that you can go about your daily routine without interruption. Remember, though, that a juice feast is also a cleanse for the body and should be treated as such. However, because one is still consuming calories, it tends to be easier and more satisfying for most.

What are the benefits of juicing?

1. High Vitamin and Mineral Content

When you juice a fruit or vegetable, you drink them in liquid form, which goes immediately into the bloodstream and the body’s systems. Fresh juice nourishes your body with vitamin-rich and easy-to-digest nutrition.

2. Detoxifying for the Body

Fresh juices are full of the vitamins and minerals that our bodies require that we sometimes don’t get. When our bodies are satisfied in their needs of proper nutrients, energy is freed up to cleanse the body of trapped toxins. This can also lead to weight-loss, more energy and a better overall mental aptitude.

3. Youthful Energy and Appearance

When you load up on all the antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals in a concentrated cup or two of juice daily, it helps to fight wrinkles, eliminate free radicals, and add moisture and a glow to your skin.

4. Weight-Loss

Juicing helps us to maintain (or achieve) our normal body weight. When we give our bodies the nutrients they need, it can easily get to homeostasis. Juicing can take the place of high-calorie snacks, and, because there is so much nutrition in one glass of vegetable juice, many find that their less-healthy cravings go away.

5. Adding Missing Nutrition to the Diet

Juicing puts a larger variety of vegetables into your diet. We tend to get into a routine with our vegetable choices. But with juicing, you can get a much larger variety of vegetables into the diet, leading to a wider variety of minerals and vitamins present in your body.

As you can see, juicing really is beneficial for us all. Start your day off right! Quit making excuses and start making juice!!

As a juicy benefit to you, my e-book 40 Days of Juicing if available for free download for the next 3 days only! I also have a hardcopy and softcopy version if you prefer the book placed right next to your juicer for easy access!

  • The Health Ranger ( Naturalnews.com) would completely disagree with this! He has been posted many times by me and others on this site. He says that a 3 day fast on juice is fine but to really detox the body and get rid of the toxins you need the fibers thats in the raw veges. It is the fibers that catch the toxins binds them and carries them out of the body. The problem with our diet today is that it is chocked full of HEAVY METALS and it is this heavy metals that we must get rid of. And jucing will not do it because you have taken out the most important element, the FIBER. If you want you can put it back after you have juiced it in a sorta of smoothe. The best thing of all to do is to go on a raw food vege diet. The uncooked raw food will provide all the vit. and minerals ( by the way you do lose some minerals in juicing) and the Fiber will catch and carry out the Heavy Metals. You can eat as much as you want and still lose weight.

    I myself have now been on this Raw Vege salad diet for 10 wks, 6 days a wk. I do add boiled eggs or cheese, or Tofu for my protein. It does get a little boring eating salads 6 days a wk. The only cooked food I eat is oats with friuts. I also eat several kinds of fruit a day and granola and I still eat wheat bread. Old habits are hard to change. I did it mainly to get rid of the Lupus disease that I have had for the last 30 yrs but also for my health in general as I am getting up there in age and I need all the energy I can get. As with all diets you don't feel good right away in fact you feel worse cause all of those heavy metal that have been stored in the body's fat, including the brain, comes out and into the blood stream. Thats why the Fiber is so important to get it out of the body ASAP,indeed. Adonai
