Get Juicy!

CRAFT: Bloom

By Heather Hudak

Adding a fresh vegetable juice to your daily routine is a terrific way to gently begin to detoxify your system. Fresh juice contains an abundance of nutrients that will energize your body, build your health, and help you fight disease. Scientists are now showing that the phytonutrients found in plants may be even more important for our health than vitamins and minerals. Without these life-giving substances, found primarily in vegetable and fruit, our immune systems weaken and we become subject to imbalance. So what are you waiting for? Get Juicy!

Juice Drinking Tips: It may sound a bit odd, but it's a good practice to actually "chew" rather than "drink" your juice. Take a small mouthful and simply go through the motions of chewing it. This practice mixes the fresh juice with your saliva, aiding digestion and making the juices more easily assimilated into your system. Also, be sure to "chew" your juice as soon as possible after juicing to be certain you taking in all the vital enzymes it has to offer!
