5 Reasons why you should start Juicing Vegetables:
1. Enhanced Energy
Not only is fresh juice easier to break down, it is also loaded with vitamins and minerals in their purest state. With this mega-load of on-demand nutrition, your body's performance will radically change with its new-found source of energy.
2. Detoxification
Every day your liver works hard at cleaning up the mess you've created. Think of it like a cleaning crew that is so in love with you that it works endlessly for free, hoping that one day you start to treat it right.
3. Weight Loss
Many scientists and doctors link the obesity epidemic to inflammation in the body. Many of the vegetables that are great for juicing have been shown to decrease inflammation. At FitLife, we've heard hundreds of success stories that tell of people losing weight after launching a juicing program. Weight gain and obesity can be linked to processed foods, synthetic ingredients such as preservatives, and a general lack of regular exercise.
4. Toxic Taste Buds
Juicing tames those toxic taste buds that will eventually lead you down the path of shame and ridicule if you're not careful. It does this by overloading your cells with vital nutrients that kick cravings to the curb.
5. Sleep Like a Baby
Remarkably, more than 30% of people suffer from insomnia. A big reason why certain people struggle to sleep is a lousy diet. Lots of refined carbs, heavy meats and processed foods throw the body off balance and drain it of vital energy, which in turn messes with a person's sleep rhythm.
BONUS: Improve Relationships
I'm convinced that most psychological disturbances are nutritional deficiencies. When you are getting the right foods, vitamins and minerals, your mind comes into a state of peace and overall joy for life. When you feel healthy and great your partner will feel the same way. You attract what you are, right? Not only will juicing get you healthy, your friends will start asking you what the secret to your success is and you can tell them it's in their kitchen.
Deanna I would like to talk with you as I am thinking of doing the same thing. Here is my question..I was going to do a lot of green juices. I bought a General Electric juicer and for some reason I put a LOT LOT LOT of Kale and spinach and only got a little juice...Is that normal or did I do something wrong? I would love to do this 92 day fact ...Deanna could we do it together?
Comment by Penni on July 9, 2012 at 6:42pm LOVE the amazing info at juicefeasting.com! David Rainoshek was my juice feasting mentor when I did my 92 day juice fast - it was a life changing experience!
Comment by deanna on July 9, 2012 at 6:06pm I signed up for Cleanse America. I have been trying several juices by using my Vitamix to blend the ingredients (like a smoothie) and storing them in Ball jars until I am ready to squeeze the liquid juice out through a nut/juice cotton bag. I usually taste the mixture and have been pleasantly surprised when the squeezed juice tastes better than the smoothie mixture! They taste great and I don't have to worry about losing all of the nutrients by doing it this way. My juice is fresh and ready to go when I am. This is great for trips. I am looking forward to my 10-day juice fast or feast.
Comment by Shekinah Love on June 2, 2012 at 4:28am Its been 2 1/2 months since I finished my 100 day juice feast and Im doing GREAT! Ive only gained 5 lbs back since then...and thats mostly having solid food in my body...Im so proud of myself!~ Im doing a little fruit cleanse right now to stay on track, because I had started faltering into too much cooked food (as I allowed myself to have some, in moderation) so things are doing well and on track! Tomorrow Im making a big batch of watermelon rind juice!
Comment by Maggie on May 3, 2012 at 1:04pm Debbie, My daughter just married a Lopez. Maybe we're related. :)Yes, coffee is my major downfall. I guess if that's the worst I can do then I'm no doing so bad. I really would like to cut back but do need that first thing in the morning jolt! I like the half calf myself. I may go back to that. Thanks

Comment by Maggie on May 2, 2012 at 2:27pm I am highly addicted to coffee. It's in my blood. I am Mexican-American and started drinking it at age 10. I love the taste but would love to start the day with something else. Anyone got any ideas? Love tea as well but sure do love that high I get from caffeine. :( Is coffee really all that bad for our bodies? I have 1-2 cups a day.
