Fresh juice is rich in vitamins, minerals and enzymes, strengthening the immune system and giving vitality to the body. Fruit and vegetable juice must be consumed soon after preparation, in order to keep in good conditions all the nutrients: carbohydrates, organic acids, mineral salts, enzymes, vitamins.

Fresh juices are a rich source of energy and vitamins, being recommended to everyone. They can be prepared from vegetables, fruits and herbs. It’s better to avoid preserved juices, although they contain ascorbic acid. There’s more vitamin C in your own home made juices.

Don’t be afraid that you might gain weight by consuming fresh juice. As long as you opt for those that have a lower content of sugar, you might even lose weight. Natural juices are recommended in weight loss diets, because they clean the body, removing toxins. It’s not necessary to consume them daily, but it’s better to do it regularly.

The vitamins found in fresh juice increase your immunity. It’s good to drink juices with pulp, which are rich in fiber. I’m talking here about fresh juices and not about preserved drinks. You can opt for light juices, as those of apple, grapefruit or tomatoes. They contain polyphenols, a type of antioxidants that protect you from certain cancers and heart diseases. Some juices even improve the condition of those who suffer from hypertension.

Tomato juice benefits are due to the vitamins contained. A 250 ml glass of tomato juice provides to our body the required daily amount of vitamin A and C. In order to realize the importance of vitamin A, it’s enough to mention some of the complication that may occur in its absence: risk of infections, the appearance of disturbances in tooth growth, eye diseases, etc. Vitamin C is also important for the body, because it detoxifies and regenerates the body cells. An insufficient amount of vitamin C in food reduces the body resistance against infections and induces fatigue and depression.

Fresh juice can be consumed after ending your workout routine, because it boosts your energy.

Carrot juice is recognized for its healing proprieties. Also, it protects the skin against daily aggressions. Therefore, to slow the aging process, make sure that your skin is perfectly hydrated and consume fresh juices and water. The nutrients contained by carrot juice are able to reduce photosensitivity, protecting the skin from the harmful action of sunlight.

Another nutritious and full of vitamins drink is the celery juice. It is a good diuretic, helping you to have a better digestion, by stimulating bile secretion.

Fruit juices are even more appreciated due to their special flavor. Orange juice is rich in vitamin C, helping you to fight against flu and fatigue. Besides its pleasant taste and nutrients, orange juice helps you to cure anemia and to get rid of toxins.

Apple juice is one of the best natural remedies, being a tonic of the nervous system. This drink cleans the blood and acts favorably in case of hypertension, reducing the level of cholesterol.

Grape juice fights against cancer and reduces the risk of mental diseases due to its relaxing proprieties. This juice is also known as vegetarian milk, because of its ability to replace breast milk.
