Try Juicing To Lose Weight

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 veggies are highly beneficial, because they contain high levels of anti-oxidants. You can use spinach, kale, broccoli, parsley leaves or some other greens. Intense color is always a good sign when it comes to nutrients. Carrots, beet, red and yellow peppers are full of great phytonutrients. Peppers contain very high level of vitamin C, for example.

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.

Carrots are great for your skin, eyes and hair. They are sweet and really tasty, so they can replace fruits in different recipes. Oranges, apples and lemons should be included in your healthy juices, but don't forget about grapefruits and pineapples. These fruits have very good effects on 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.
