When done properly, juicing can provide
several important nutritional benefits. Experts universally recommend that our
diet should include six to eight servings of fruits and vegetables every day.
Some of us try to eat that much, but most of us don’t often succeed. And, except for a morning glass of juice and a banana, apple or some other type of fruit we snack on during the day, most of the produce we do consume has been cooked. The heat used during cooking can damage or destroy several of the most important nutrients in produce.
Juicing makes it much easier to consume the recommended amounts of fruits and vegetables. And, because the produce is juiced while it’s still raw, juicing also prevents the loss of nutrients that can arise from cooking or heating the food.
