Green Juice Wellness Tips

Here are a few green juice wellness tips to help you get the best on-the-go meal when driving or while taking a quick walk down the street. When drinking an organic green juice meal, your body is enriched with the seven daily servings of fruits and veggies, a complete nutritional meal.

Green Juice Questions And Answers

Are these green juice and veggi-smoothie stands popping up all over the place really as healthy as they seem?

Is it really that easy to get all the nutrition needed in a green juice drink?

Seriously, is a bottle of juice as good for you as eating the real thing?

 

Green Juice Benefits

Done properly green juice vegetable-dominant drinks are proven to make you leaner, happier and healthier.  So…what are some things you should know to help you started?

When it comes to buying juices, some shelf-bottled juices actually have perservatives that  destroy essential nutrients and more than likely you will not get the full nutritional green juice benefits. In fact, in many cases you may be getting way too much sugar.

Green Juice Freshness 

Trendy city juice bars can cost up $10 for a bottle for freshly squeezed juice. Most importantly, a fresh and healthy upscale juice can be packed with extra sugars.  If you’re going to a trendy juice bar to get something that’s making you leaner and healthier, make sure that is what you’re actually getting.

Maybe a juicer for less than $100 is the best way to maximize your green juice at home. Or when you can, get a customized drink and watch them make it in front of you.

Green Juice Intake

Green Juice Is Mostly Green http://allrecipes.com/recipe/healthy-green-juice/

Healthy green juice features kale, cucumber, apples, ginger, and lemon. The greener the better, see that the majority of ingredients in your juice is green in color. Cucumber and celery are low-calorie ways to add sweetness to your drink.

Fruits add sweetness to juices, this is great for beginners getting used to the idea of an all-veggie juice; but beware you can be adding a lot of sugar content too. Many fruits can easily turn your healthy drink into a high-sugar desert and leave you sluggish. One serving of fruit juice a day can increase your risk of developing type 2 diabetes. A tall glass of fruit juice can pack around 50 grams of sugar, two times the daily recommendation of the American Heart Association for women, and more than a full day’s worth for men.

Best Way To Drink Green Juice

Consume your green juice drink within 20 minutes of juicing or when ordering at the juice bar. So, the rule of thumb is quickly.

Here’s why, as you break open every cell wall of the fruits and vegetables they are exposed to air. Enzymatic and nutritional values begin to deteriorate – a process called oxidation, like how a freshly cut apple turns browns over time. Blended green juice (or smoothies) are more susceptible to oxidation, as every part of the process has been exposed to air.

This is why bottled juices are pasteurized to prevent oxidation and to preserve freshness. Some medical experts suggest consuming green juices on an empty stomach allows your body to quickly and easily absorb all the nutrients without other food interfering. What a great way to start your day, with a huge nutritional boost, without taxing your digestive system.

The Green Juice Meal 

No kidding…chewing and swirling your green juice drink is a part of the digestive process. Saliva contains the enzyme Ptyalin, breaking down food and speeding up nutrition. There is  direct relationship between small particle size an increased nutrient benefits.  In other words, the more you chew, the more nutrients are retained by the body.

Bottom line, drinking green is good for you. In this fast paced lifestyle that we are living in, make 2014 the year to get your green juice on!
