Juicing is a powerful tactic used by a quickly-growing amount of people to lose weight fast, get proper nutrition, and help fuel healthy lifestyles.

Whenever I come from vacation or a particularly bad eating night, I reach for a healthy juice to cleanse my body and give my digestive system a break.

I am sharing 4 of our favorite juicing recipes with an assortment of fruits and vegetables for variety.  Since my oldest daughter is a “health freak” we make these homemade juices every week and store them in jars in the refrigerator to make them easily accessible. It saves SO much money juicing at home!

What are the health benefits of juicing?

According to the Mayo Clinic, by drinking freshly made juices, your body can absorb the nutrients better than eating whole fruits and vegetables and it gives your digestive system a rest from working on fiber. They say that juicing can reduce your risk of cancer, boost your immune system, help remove toxins from your body, aid digestion and help you lose weight. Fresh juices can give you a burst of energy and a clear mind. Always check with your doctor for medical advice and find out what is best for your health.

1. Abundance of Nutrients: Fresh juices pack a powerful punch of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. These nutrients play crucial roles in supporting overall health, boosting the immune system, and promoting optimal bodily functions.
2. Hydration Boost: Many fruits and vegetables have high water content, contributing to hydration. Staying adequately hydrated is essential for various bodily functions, including circulation, digestion, and skin health.
3. Detoxification: Fresh juices are known for their detoxifying properties, helping the body eliminate toxins. Certain ingredients, such as lemon and ginger, support the liver’s natural detox processes.

What fruits and vegetables to use for juicing?

Some of the most popular vegetables are carrots, cucumber, celery, kale, spinach, beets, and romaine. The most popular fruits to use in juicing are lemons, oranges, apples, and limes. Other add-ins are fresh ginger, parsley, chlorella, and turmeric.

What are the health benefits of fruits and vegetables in a juice cleanse?
