When you drink juice, highly concentrated vitamins, minerals and enzymes rapidly enter the bloodstream absorbing all of the nutritional benefits of the fruits and vegetables and giving your digestive organs a much-needed rest and with benefits such being anti-inflammatory. Juicing brings a number of medicinal benefits if you know when to drink it and what kind of produce to get!
Health Benefits:
Digestion
If you’re having digestion problems, drinking fresh juice may help. Juice is practically digested already but the digestive benefits from specific fruits or vegetables, within your juice, such as celery enter the bloodstream and create a fast acting solution!
Your Body Saves Energy
There’s a reason why your body feels good when you eat healthy foods and why you feel so tired after eating junk. When you drink juice, your body is essentially skipping this step and saving energy allowing energy to be redirected giving you the boost you have been looking for.
More Antioxidants For Your Body
Homemade juices contain increased antioxidant, antiviral, and anticancer properties. Again it’s important to remember the antioxidants are coming from the produce you use to make your juice.
