Juicing Tips For Your Juice Diet Plan

By Greg Nelson


If you are looking for a great way to work in extra vitamins, minerals, and fiber into your diet, or into the diet of kids especially, then look no further than juicing. Juice is a yummy way to convince kids to drink their vegetables. They will happily get their daily recommended amounts of nearly all vitamins and minerals. Read on for great tips about how you can juice at home.

Don't forget to wash your produce prior to juicing, and use organic products where possible. So many people seem to think that since it's going to turn into juice, they don't need to wash their fruits and veggies. Just because it's liquid, doesn't mean the chemicals present on the peels are going to go away. Clean your fruits and vegetables thoroughly before juicing.

Buy a juicer made of high quality. This is important if you plan to use your juicer regularly. A good juicer will make as much juice as you want, be easy to maintain and clean, and last a long time. Don't try to skimp on price or you might end up buying more juicers than you want to; bad juicers just don't stand the test of time.

Keep all the tools you use in juicing, like your cutting board, knives, measuring cups, juicer, etc. together in their own place so you always know where they are. The one reason you won't continue juicing is because you're not keeping your things organized, leaving you feeling frustrated and overwhelmed.

There are a countless recipes of items to include in your juice recipes. You can try different combinations like apple with carrot and ginger, or celery and pear. My personal favorites are apple with lemon and pear, apple with cinnamon and honey, and, my daughter's favorite, banana with orange and mango. Try new ideas to find your own favorite!

When you start juicing do your research on what kind of juicer you want to buy. Masticating juicers take longer to juice but they always get the most amount of juice possible. Centrifugal juicers are cheaper and work faster but it can leave the fiber juicy.

Be open to trying fruit and vegetable combinations that you wouldn't normally consider. Start out with ordinary juices, such as carrot or apple, but then get creative. Experiment with different vegetables and fruits. You can even use fresh herbs.

Juicing from home doesn't have to be costly or time consuming. You can vastly improve the way that you and your kids feel and look, by just juicing for one meal of the day. Work it into breakfast, lunch or dinner to make all the difference in your families health. Use the tips you read here to make juicing a reality.
