Juicer Recipes - Benefits of Juicing for Health
Juicing is a great way to provide your body with a high level of superb nutrition. A great many health conscious folks agree how amazing it is. Now you might be asking yourself, what is it about juicing that is so great?
The 3 main reasons juicing is so amazing is:
1) The juice requires hardly any digestion, so all its nutritional goodness gets rapidly into your system.
2) When you use a juicer you create a drink that is packed full of vitamins and minerals. Juicing allows you to use more fruits and vegetables than you could ever eat in a day therefore providing a great benefit you are missing out on.
3) Detoxify your liver
Below are some of the many health benefits of juicing :
Improves the heart and cardiovascular systems:
- Antioxidants vitamins E and C help to prevent damage from free radicals on arteries by preventing your blood from sticking and clotting. They also keep the blood non-toxic. Vitamin C is found in most vegetables and fruit and vitamin E is found in blackberries, asparagus, kiwi and spinach used in juicer recipes.
- Magnesium and Potassium are essential minerals needed for a regular heart beat and proper heart function. A great source for both minerals are blackberries.
Detoxify the liver for fundamental good health:
- The liver has 100s of important functions. One of its main functions is to clean the blood and remove toxins and metabolic waste. With the amount of toxins we are dealing with everyday in modern life we need to be real diligent in helping to keep it clean so it can keep us clean!
- Liver cleansing is achieved through certain nutrients. Vitamin C and E, beta-carotene, and N-acetyl cysteine are antioxidants that are powerful liver cleansers. B-vitamins riboflavin and niacin also help with liver cleansing. Cauliflower, cabbage and brussel sprouts have also been found to be good for the liver.
- For help with healthy skin, nails, eyes, and hair:
- The antioxidants vitamins E and C prevent damage to the skin from the sun because of their ability to neutralize free radicals. Juicing blueberries and blackberries will give you a great source of both vitamins C and E if used together.
- Greasy hair, cracked lips, hair loss and other skin conditions may be from a deficiency in riboflavin or vitamin B2. Some vegetables such as kale, asparagus, and spinach in your juice will provide you with riboflavin or vitamin B2.
- The most important nutrient for keeping your eyes healthy is Vitamin A. In order to get Vitamin A in your diet you must first consume beta-carotene found in orange fruits and veggies. Beta-carotene is broken down and processed by our body and turned into vitamin A which is essential for the eye to properly function and to discourage night blindness. Both A and C vitamins help to reduce the chance of cataracts and age-related macular degeneration. Carrot juice is an awesome way to ingest both Vitamins A and C.
Rebuild blood cells:
- Yes thats right! This is made possible by the incredibly healthy chlorophyll, which would need an article of its own to give justice to its health benefits!
Chlorophyll looks like similar to a part of the red blood cell hemin on the molecular level. Scientists have also found out that when chlorophyll is assimilated in the body it actually becomes hemin by the course of a chemical reaction. In other words, ingesting chlorophyll is like receiving a blood transfusion!
Chlorophyll is what gives plants their green pigment. This is why it is important to put green stuff in your juicing recipes! Remember, the darker green the veggie, the more chlorophyll it has.
Better immune system:
- Varied and regular juicing is going to give you a wide variety and more than adequate amount of antioxidants which are essential for a healthy immune system. The antioxidants from fruits and vegetables include vitamins A, C, E, plus a wide range of plant chemicals called phytochemicals. Phytochemicals have amazing and varied health benefits, most notably anti-cancer properties. - 17269
