Juicing 101
WHAT IS JUICING?
Juicing involves the extraction of juice from fresh fruits and vegetables to create a drinkable cocktail of vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients. Juicing is a controversial subject in the nutrition world, especially since juice fasts and cleanses are currently a major dietary trend. Advocates for juicing claim it’s a fast and convenient way to get nutrients into our bodies, while opponents argue we miss out on important health benefits from the nutrient-rich skin and fiber that is extracted during the processing. Regardless of your juicing stance, a glass of your favorite greens is still a better choice than a processed, sugar-laden snack. Follow these juicing tips to learn how you can safely incorporate juicing into a healthy, balanced diet.
