Juicing To Lose Weight Easily

By Deanne Shepard


Freshly prepared, organic juices can really help you to get in shape. Many people practice juicing to lose weight easily, without endangering their health. Vegetable and fruit juices supply your body with vitamins, fibers, minerals and other valuable ingredients, and keep it healthy and strong while toxins and fats get flushed away.

Numerous types of vegetables lose most of their healthy substances when you cook them. And they really are full of valuable phytonutrients. You should consume them fresh, and some, such as kale, for example, don't have very appealing taste. This problem can be easily solved if you combine these veggies with sweet and tasty fruits.

Although fruits are also highly beneficial and full of vitamins and minerals, they also contain lots of sugar. Fructose is much better than sucrose, but it still rises the insulin level. For making tasty and powerful juices you should combine nutritionally valuable veggies and anti-oxidant rich fruits that will not only improve their taste, but also be highly beneficial for you.

Dark green broccoli, kale and spinach are loaded with minerals, vitamins and anti-oxidants. All fresh vegetables contain good phytonutrients, especially intensively colored ones. You cannot make a mistake if you choose carrots, red peppers or beets. You can also include parsley, celery and cucumbers, or any other good quality greens.

One vegetable should definitely be included in your juices. Beet has many great qualities. It lowers your blood pressure, reduces inflammation and swelling, increases endurance, detoxifies and even boosts your libido. It is full of iron and it means it is really good for your blood. Besides, it will energize you and make you feel stronger when you are on diet.

Vitamin and fiber rich carrots are great for your eyes, skin and hair. They have really pleasant taste, and will improve the taste of your juices. Combine them with cucumbers, apples and oranges, for example, and add some beet in this combination. Fruits such as grapefruit and pineapple speed up the process of losing weight.

Even if you don't need to get rid of some extra pounds, it might be a good idea to detoxify your body every once in a while. One day of juicing is good, but three days will really cleanse you. Don't forget that you need to drink enough water as well. Use freshly prepared drinks maybe five times a day.

Of course, if you are determined to lose your excess weight quickly, you can try practicing this diet for a week or two. You could lose maybe ten pounds this way, or even considerably more, depending on your eating habits. It won't be easy, but it never is, but your body ill get what it needs and your skin will appreciate this approach.

If you are satisfied with your weight, and want to keep it, try juicing one day every week. This simple and effective way of detoxifying and cleansing your body will be very useful. Or you could replace your dinner with good quality organic vegetable juice.
