I Am Thrilled To Have Discovered Juicing!
If you have not heard of juicing, you are absolutely missing out.
Juicing refers to the practice of drinking juice that is extracted from fresh fruits and vegetables be a juicing machine. You get a lot more health benefits from this fresh juice than you would from the sugar-laden and nutrient-stripped prepackaged juice that you would buy in bottles from the grocery store shelves.
I first discovered the joys of juicing last summer. My friend from work bought a juicer and actually brought it into work with her during the first week that she had it been set up in the break room.
All week long, she treated all of us in the office to delicious concoctions of fresh apple and pear juice, along with green juices that incorporated nutrient rich vegetables such as spinach and kale. Another popular addition to many of the glasses of juice was carrot juice which ended up being my favorite.
One of the things that surprised me about all of the lovely glasses of juice that she treated us to was that most of them were actually a combination of various fruits and vegetables. Possibly because I had been indoctrinated by the bottles of juice that you see on the store shelf, I always thought of juice as being from just one fruit or vegetable at a time.
For instance, I would think of apple juice on its own, or grape juice. It never occurred to me that one of the most delicious combinations would be a glass of apple-carrot-orange-kale juice, for example!
I couldn\’t believe how great I felt once I started drinking one or two glasses a day of the juice that my friend was whipping up for all of us around the office. My energy in particular went absolutely through the roof!
It didn\’t take much to convince myself that I needed to buy a juicer of my own to have on my kitchen counter and use all the time while I\’m at home for breakfast and dinner.
I am now an avid juicer, and an advocate for this healthy activity, as well. Since beginning to juice, I am healthier, I have more energy, my skin is clearer and brighter, and I just have an overall sense of well-being every single day that I never had before I started drinking at least three glasses of nutrient rich fruit and vegetable juice each and every day.
Once I decided to share this new adventure with my friends they couldn\’t believe it. I wasn\’t know as being the healthy type, so the thought of me doing something such as juicing really blew their mind. Once I think about it, I blew my own mind! The closets I use to get to eating veggies was when they was on an hamburger or my favorite chicken wrap from Mc Donald\’s. Since I\’ve started juicing my grocery shopping habits did a complete 360, I now buy things such as Kale, Cucumbers, Celery, Carrots, Spinach and etc.
