GET INTO THE JUICING HABIT!
To ensure the best use of your investment in your new
juice machine, form a daily habit of using it. Here is
how:
-
Set a time when you will juice each day.
-
Be sure to stock up on the produce you want to
juice.
-
Prepare the produce to clean and ready to juice
beforehand.
-
If you have a routine of unwanted habits that you
would like to eliminate, use this one to replace
them.
-
Carry this out religiously for at least three weeks to
set the habit in formation.
-
Don’t allow your juicer/health investment to take its
place in the appliance graveyard, or put your juicer
in your cupboard so you won’t see it daily. A juicer
must be used daily to see and feel the wonderful
benefits.
HOW TO & HOW MUCH TO DRINK
Drink juices slowly and do not gulp hem down in large
quantities. If you drink juice slowly, the saliva will mix with it,
providing the same natural digestive enzymes we get when
we are chewing our food. If the juice is taken too quickly and
in large quantities it can be noxious, especially if you are
drinking green juices. This is particularly true if you are just
starting out on juicing greens.
Fruit juices are easier to digest and can be taken in larger
quantities, however please be careful and ask your doctor if
you can be juicing larger quantities of fruit juices, due to
challenges with blood sugar you may have, as diabetics must
discuss this first with their doctor before taking on fruit
juicing.
Stronger juices such as cabbage and beet should be taken in
smaller quantities in the beginning, mixed with carrots and/or
other milder vegetables or diluted with purified water.
It is recommended that liquids be taken between meals
whenever possible to aid good digestion, however if you are
juicing vegetables, it’s ok to drink and eat your meal at the
same time, just slowly sip your juices, as fresh vegetable
juices are rich in natural enzymes which help in better
digestion.
