Reasons for Juicing and Some Beneficial Recipes

The ideas for juicing are many and varied. Juice is not a replacement for solid foods. This is a way to get the maximum nutrients from fruits and vegetables whilst helping you to adjust your food intake to proper levels. 

This is also a way to help your body get any vitamin deficiencies back to normal and up your immune system levels. This is a great site where you can take a test to see what you are low in: http://whfoods.com/foodadvisor.php. Then they give you all the information you need to use foods wisely. Why take vitamins and minerals when you can drink or eat them in a healthy and delicious way?

There are recipes for many conditions that can help you feel and look better and therefore live healthier. This site gives you recipes for all kinds of health issues: http://www.knowyourgut.com/powerful-juice-recipes-for-13-common-ailments.
Taking those vitamin pills won't really do that, right?



Once we get used to juicing on a regular basis, and it becomes a daily habit/ritual, we will begin feeling better. I look forward to juicing every day. It is fun, and I know that the end product is going to be delicious and make me feel great.

You should always wash your produce first. I use the same method as on the link above. This ensures that what you put in the juicer is free of any contaminants.

The best juice for fasting is the greens combination. Learn why here. Fasting should be done in moderation so that you don't shock your system. You are trying to get healthier, not get yourself sick.

We must all look at these ideas with critical care. Here at Refreshing Home we do not believe in "diets". They can do more harm than good. We have both done them in the past and learned this. It is more important to your health to make a lifestyle change. Eating and juicing properly can get you where you want to be with your body and your mind.

Find a good eating lifestyle that fits YOU, and helps you attain your goals. This is the only body we are going to have, so we all need to learn how to take proper care of it, right?  Cut out the hype and sales pitches out there and do the positive thing for yourself.

The final questions are....do you want to feel better and live healthier? Enough to incorporate this juicing process into your daily routines? The payoff can be amazing.  You owe it to yourself, and you will love it.

If you have any health issues it is always recommended that you consult with your doctor when you are changing your eating habits and doing the juicing. I have my blood tests done twice a year to be sure my system is working properly. 

Eat healthy, Juice healthy, Be healthy.
