Introduction
Juicing is the process of extracting the juice from different fruits and vegetables and drinking the juice instead of eating the whole fruit and vegetable raw or cooked. Juicing is now a popular method of consuming fruits and vegetables because of several reasons. One, juicing makes it easy for people to consume vegetables especially if they don’t love the taste of these foods. Since juicing just means gulping down the juice instead of chewing it, the taste no longer has to linger in the taste buds longer. This is the same with those who do not love the taste of certain fruits.
Two, juicing is a lot easier and healthier than when you cook vegetables because it only takes minutes and you can already have a nutrient-packed meal or snack. In fact, the juicing process is easy as you only need a food processor or juicer to place all the fruits and vegetables and squeeze their juices out. On the other hand, compared to cooking the veggies, juicing fruits and vegetables is more nutrient-packed because you are really extracting all the essential nutrients from these food items. And finally, juicing is a popular method nowadays because it is said to aid in weight loss, which is probably one of the major concerns and goals of most people today.
Part 1. How Juicing Aids in Weight Loss
Before moving on to some of the tastiest and healthiest juicing recipes for weight loss, it is important to know and understand how juicing can actually benefit or contribute to weight loss. Juicing can help in weight loss:
Through Concentrated Nutrients. The reason why weight loss can be difficult to achieve sometimes is because the nutrients that has the ability to help lose weight is not that concentrated or the body does not get the right amount of nutrients that can help it lose weight. However, when you juice your fruits and vegetables, you get all the necessary nutrients that can help lose weight in a more concentrated form since the juice is from the whole fruit or vegetable and there are no added ingredients.
Therefore, since the body gets these concentrated nutrients, losing weight is more effective.
Through Strong Detoxifying Properties. Most fruits and vegetables naturally have detoxifying properties but weight loss can still be difficult even if you eat raw fruits and veggies but you keep eating other food items rich in toxins. However, when you juice fruits and vegetables, the detoxifying properties are very strong and this can help the body excrete away toxins that may only hamper weight loss.
Through Fat-Burning Properties. Just like the detoxifying properties, some fruits and vegetables have fat burning abilities and since you get these nutrients in a more concentrated form, you also get more of these fat burning properties making it easy for you to burn fats and lose weight.
Through Appetite-Suppressant Properties. The reason why most people find it hard to lose weight sometimes is the fact that they have large appetites that they fail to control. Some fruits and vegetables are very good appetite suppressants especially when you drink these juiced foods before meal. This way, your appetite is suppressed and instead of eating too much, you only eat a few which can help you lose weight.
Through Easy Digestion. Another reason why losing weight can be difficult at times is because eating solid foods can be very difficult to digest especially if you have very low metabolism so instead of burning fats easily; your body ends up storing them. But if you juice fruits and vegetables, you’ll naturally consume a lighter meal or snack than solid foods since this is liquid form already. And since they are in liquid form already, they make it easier for the body to digest them and distribute all the necessary health and weight loss nutrients.
Through Less-Sugar Properties. Some fruits and vegetables have natural sweeteners in them so that when you juice them, they will taste good already even without adding sugar to your juice. Since you are no longer adding sugar to your juice, you are helping your body lose weight effectively as you are not adding burden to it through the consumption of sugar and you already know that sugar is one of the reasons why it is sometimes difficult to lose weight as sugar is known to make you fat.
When juicing, you get just enough sugar to tickle your taste buds but not more to hamper weight loss.
Through Ease in Consumption. Another reason why it is sometimes difficult to lose weight is because people tend to get discouraged with the many weight loss regimens out there especially if they find these programs and diet plans hard to follow. For instance, there are diet plans and programs forcing people to consume fruits and vegetables even if they cannot tolerate its taste.
But as mentioned, when you juice fruits and vegetables, it is easier to consume them since it only takes one gulp and no need to chew them. And with the combination of fruits, vegetables are made even tastier. So, even
