How to get benefit from juice?

Fresh vegetable juices have been shown to contain remarkable health-promoting properties. And it has been used by naturopaths to cure a wide variety of body ailments. Freshly squeezed vegetable juices possess natural minerals, vitamins and enzymes which are have much more health benefits than taking in synthetic tablets. The naturally occurring substances in the vegetable juice can be absorbed by the body into the bloodstream easily and reach your body cells within 15 minutes after drinking the juice. There are many benefits of vegetable juicing and this article is going to discuss a few of them.

Nowadays more and more people are turning to juice therapy to help them cure their health benefits. It is very true that fruits and vegetables have unique characteristics that help our bodies grow, fight of diseases and remain strong. The National Cancer Institute is encouraging people to eat more fruits and vegetables, the recommended diet being five servings of fruit and three servings of vegetables a day. However people are not doing this and in poorer countries you will discover that some people spend days without even consuming any vegetables.

Medicines to treat diseases such as breast cancer, cancer of the colon, stomach, rectum, esophagus, ovaries, and lungs, are being developed using chemicals that are found in plants, vegetables and fruits. Theses chemicals are called phytochemicals and they help prevent or cure a lot of diseases. It’s impossible to do justice to the benefits of vegetable juicing as already nutritionists have linked vegetables and fruits to preventing some of the most deadly diseases such as cancer, heart disease, asthma, allergies and arthritis

Epidemiological studies in the last decade have clearly shown the benefits of consuming and drinking vegetables & vegetable juice. The research compared results of communities that had a rich diet of vegetable and that which had a poor vegetable diet. The studies, were done in Africa, China, the Mediterranean and Russia, and it was noted that in cultures where the diet consists of fruits and vegetables, making it high in both carbohydrates and fiber, a number of diseases that affect Americans do not exist in the countries under study.

British researchers working in Africa did not find a single case of such common ailments as diverticulitis, cancer of the colon, or cancer of the prostate. There could not find any other reason to explain the above phenomenon except link it to the difference in diet.

A tomato is a very healthy vegetable and contains a lot of vitamin A, vitamin C, and several minerals that have health benefits to the body. Tomatoes also have over 10,000 other chemicals in them which research is still investigating. Broccoli has a substance that may prevent or cure breast cancer.

Most green vegetables have phytochemicals that can protect our bodies against cancer-causing substances. Eating three servings of bok, broccoli, brussels sprouts, choy, cabbage, cauliflower, carrots, collards, kale, kohlrabi, mustard greens, rutabaga, turnip greens, red beets, peppers, garlic, onions and leeks will keep you strong and health.

However eating the vegetables raw is not always convenient for everyone. Sometimes you just do not have the time to prepare vegetable juice early in the morning before work. The good thing about vegetable juice is that you can prepare it and store it in a cool place and have it quickly in the morning or when it suits you. Drinking vegetable juice is also much better than eating the vegetables raw because the vegetable juice is liquid and will be absorbed by the body much quicker than solid food.

The benefits of juicing have been well explained by many others and so I am not going to go into the benefits of juicing in any great detail.

In fact, I would prefer not to even talk about the benefits of juicing because as each person is an individual, each person will have different results. In addition, when a person is solely focused on the benefits of juicing, then they will only get disappointed when the benefits do not happen.

When you juice because you enjoy drinking fresh vegetable juice, then any benefits you obtain will be a bonus because if you ask me, drinking something that tastes great and is nutritious is benefit enough.

There are some significant benefits to making your own fresh juice:

The juice is fresh. Therefore, it's full of live enzymes which help the body.
When juice is fresh, it hasn't been pasteurized. Unfortunately, although pasteurization has saved many lives, it has also brought on its own problems such as nutritionally dead foods. Vegetables juices in cans or boxes have been pasteurized. The high heat required for pasteurization destroys vital nutrients within the juice. Many vegetable juices you buy will have a nutritional analysis on the can, but unfortunately, these are done before pasteurization. By making your own fresh juice, you avoid the pasteurization process.
It’s easier to drink more vegetables than you can eat! We all know how important vegetables are to the human body, but unfortunately; it's not always possible to eat as many vegetables as we should. Drinking fresh vegetable juice helps take care of this problem.
You make digestion and assimilation of nutrition easier. Believe it or not, but your body is essentially a juice machine. When you eat a carrot, your body will digest the carrot by extracting the juice to get the nutrition. The body then sends the fiber to the colon and you know what happens next! But by juicing, you extract the juice for the body thus making it easier for your body to assimilate the nutrition as your body doesn't need to break down the fruit or vegetable. It's still important to eat whole vegetables and fruits because you need the fiber as well.
Fresh juice tastes absolutely delicious.

Tips and Information

Here is some information on the benefits of 100% fruit juice along with a few tips on how to make juice a regular part of your child's healthy diet.

A 4-ounce glass of 100% fruit juice equals one fruit exchange on the new USDA My Pyramid.
100% juice can be an important part of a "brainy breakfast" to start the day off right. It is proven that kids perform better if they start the day with a healthy breakfast.
It's often difficult to encourage children to drink water, making it easy for their bodies to dehydrate. The naturally sweet taste of 100% juice is a great way to replenish their bodies of much needed liquids.
Be sure to follow the AAP guidelines when serving 100% juice to your child. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends no more than 4 - 6 fluid ounces of juice per day (one serving) for children ages 1 to 6 years old, and no more than 8 - 12 fluid ounces per day (two servings) for children over 7 years old.

Warning

Many parents fall into the trap of serving too many sugary juice drinks to their children. However, 100% juice can be a healthy part of your child's diet and can serve as one fruit serving. Follow these simple guidelines to make sure you're serving 100% juice to your child:

Carefully read nutrition labels, and always look for 100% juice, such as JUICY JUICE. If it's not 100%, it's not the best for your child.
Be wary of products that contain words like "ade", "beverage," "cocktail" or “drink" in the name. These words indicate that a product is not 100% juice. For example, many "fruit juice drinks" contain only 10% fruit juice, and often are packed with added sugars, artificial sweeteners, preservatives and artificial flavors.
