There's lots of controversy about juices and how good they are for you. Certainly juices are packed with nutrients, but some people make the mistake of drinking too many and juicing with fruit only. It's unlikely to make you fat but it will encourage sudden energy spikes followed slumps. Juice also lacks the fibre of the complete food, yet many of my clients respond well to a fresh juice taken before a high fibre breakfast to get the bowels moving. This juice tastes great and uses the smallest amount of fruit to sweeten. Try also to use organic where possible.
Wash all the vegetables before juicing. Serve immediately.
Note : If buying fresh juice from a juice bar, ensure you visit one with a high turnover of produce. If the fruit and vegetables has been peeled and allowed to sit for any length of time, much of its nutritional value will be lost.
