What is Green Juice?
We normally associate the word “juice” with packaged drinks that are available in orange, yellow, red or purple colored boxes. But today, the hottest color in juice is green and green juice is everywhere.

Green juice is a mixture of green vegetables fruits, herbs and certain other nutrients juiced together, usually using a juicer. A green juice is a non-sweet or semi-sweet juice that contains more green vegetables with little to no fruit. Ideally, a green juice should contain 90-100% green vegetables. Unfortunately, people associate greens and green juice with bitter taste and avoid it because of its color.

But many green juices are mixed with a bit of fruit such as apple or pear, and herbs such as mint, lime juice, and ginger root. This makes the green juice sweet, delicious and flavorful.

The purpose is to separate the juice from the pulp and then drink the extracted liquid to gain advantage of all the nutrients left behind in the juice.

Why Green Juices?

The latest dietary guidelines for Americans recommends five to thirteen servings of fruits and vegetables every day (2½ to 6½ cups of produce per day), depending on one’s caloric intake.

For example, a person who consumes 2,000 calories a day to maintain weight and health, needs nine servings, or 4½ cups (2 cups of fruit and 21/2 cups of vegetables) per day.

The above servings might not seem a lot but studies show that most Americans fall short of the mark, increasing their risk of diseases and chronic conditions.

Juicing can help us bridge this gap and can be the difference between great health and chronic diseases. Juicing can easily help us consume our daily recommendations of fruits and vegetables. During the juicing process, the cell walls of fruits and vegetables are sliced open separating the mineral elements and water from the fibers. In other words, when we juice vegetables and fruits we get rid of most of the pulp or the fiber in them. This leaves us with just the nutrients and water. The extracted liquid is rich in amino acids, living enzymes, chlorophyll, micro nutrients, antioxidants, minerals and vitamins.

Juicing is an easy, delicious, nutritious and quick way to give the body high amount of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and phytochemicals in a form that is immediately absorbed and utilized for nourishment.
