Raw Juices - Your Road to Good Health


Drinking fresh vegetable and fruit juices is a wonderful avenue to good health. If you are suffering from digestive problems or simply have a poor appetite, then fresh vegetable and fruit juices are just what you need. Compare how easy it is to simply drink a glass of juice as opposed to eating a plateful of food if you are unwell and not feeling like eating.

Remember that fresh juices contain living enzymes which actually enable you to easily assimilate the nutrients in the juices, including vitamins, minerals, various anti-oxidants, organic sulphur compounds and phytochemicals.

It is certainly an approach strongly worth considering if a person is suffering from a serious disease and is suitable for people of all ages. Juices are the perfect medium in which to mix and dissolve nutritional powders, and will enhance their healing powers. This is a much easier way for the powders to be absorbed than in tablet form.


Drinking juices is easy on the digestive system, because the liver and pancreas are not over-worked when absorbing nutrients in this easy manner. Up to 99% of nutrients can be absorbed when drinking juices. Drinking juices enables you to get a highly concentrated quantity of nutrients which you could not normally get simply by eating normal quantities of food. If you find that you are unable to have too many fruit juices because you are diabetic or for any other reason, drink only vegetable juices instead.

Raw juices are very important in the detoxification of the digestive system. They stimulate bowel, liver and kidney function which in turn improves the elimination of toxic matter from the body. Introducing raw juices into your diet will enable you to improve your general health and to lose weight if you are overweight in the first place.

If you wish to detoxify, it may be beneficial to go on a juice and raw food fast for a few days. Do not do this if you are diabetic, but for most people this is an approach that should reap great rewards.

You will have no problem finding a good juicer as there are many products available in the market today. Look for a machine that looks sturdy, is easy to clean and which has a generous warranty, and you should be rewarded with many years of trouble free juicing.

To expound on the nutritional qualities and benefits of most vegetables and fruits is way beyond the scope of this article, but many good books are available for those who wish to learn more about the specific qualities of specific juices. Two of the more popular options are carrot juice and celery juice. Carrot juice is excellent for the skin and for the health of the eyes. It cleanses the liver and reduces inflammation of the intestines and respiratory tract. Celery juice is effective for the reduction of acidity and is therefore beneficial in the fight against arthritis, gout and acidity of the stomach. It is a diuretic and has a calming effect on the nervous system.

If you are considering becoming a juice regular, I urge you to do so. As the days and weeks go by you will feel so much better for it and you will feel as if you are taking control of your own health, which is the way you should feel.
