Use a tube and take small sips - so the juice will be better absorbed

Vitamins are what the human body needs all year round. But if in the warm season we can indulge ourselves with fresh products from the garden, then in the cold period, which is often associated with colds and immune suppression, difficulties are possible. Of course, pharmaceutical companies producing miracle pill complexes can offer an alternative to natural vitamins. Also popular are “100%” juices in “no preservatives” packages languishing on long store shelves.

But is it not better to pay attention to fresh juices - fresh juices rich in unique substances? In addition, vegetable juices, which are a valuable product for preserving youth and health, are difficult to find in stores (except for tomato, pumpkin and carrot in various variations). Apparently, the taste and benefits are poorly preserved in industrial containers.

How to prepare juices from vegetables?

You can prepare freshly squeezed juice at home using a blender or a centrifuge juicer. All vegetables should be washed and dried well before use. Fruits must be fresh, ripe, free from damage and wormholes. If there are doubts about the origin of the vegetable, it is better to remove the layer of the peel thicker - it is there that harmful toxins accumulate.
  It is better to drink the prepared juice immediately (10-15 minutes), without leaving spare portions, since it tends to deteriorate quickly. Only beetroot (2-3 hours) and cabbage (12 hours) juices are recommended. They must be kept in the refrigerator in an open container to neutralize the harmful substances that make up fresh juice.

Tip: it is not recommended to add salt, sugar, ground pepper, as their beneficial qualities are reduced. But a small amount of garlic, greens will improve the taste and enrich the valuable composition of trace elements in the drink. By adding a little pure water, you can make the juice less saturated.

Juices from vegetables: benefits and harms

In order to get the maximum benefit from taking live vitamins, you need to remember certain important rules that take into account the benefits and harms of vegetable juices:

• Acceptance of freshly squeezed juices as a prevention of vitamin deficiency is best done at a time when there is a diverse assortment of the freshest vegetables on sale - from May to November.
• Vegetables should be local, seasonally grown on the ground.
• It is better to start taking juices before dinner with small doses - 50 ml, gradually increasing the volume of the drink to the recommended one depending on how you feel (it is enough for a healthy person to drink 0.6 l per day in 3-4 doses). This approach will allow the body to get used to and learn to cope with a shock dose of vitamins that come with the juice.
• Drink juice should be either half an hour before meals, or 1.5 hours after the main meal, so as not to get heartburn or bloating. It’s better not to empty the glass in one gulp, but to use a straw.

Some contraindications

All fresh contains concentrated bioactive substances, so the treatment of some diseases can be accompanied by an exacerbation of others, various side effects. For example, treatment with potato juice, indicated for gastritis and pancreatitis, should be carried out with caution - tooth enamel may suffer. In addition, some juices are not recommended to be undiluted - it is better to mix with others (cabbage, beetroot).

Juice intake should be given to those who suffer from diabetes (due to the high content of suction carbohydrates in some types of juice) and are prone to allergies.

You need to drink juices in the morning, before meals, and not after.

All vegetable juices are diluted. Drinks from vegetables of red, yellow and orange color with the addition of vegetable oil or cream, or seize something greasy (otherwise carotene is not absorbed), all other juices are diluted with apple juice in a ratio of 1: 2 (two parts of apple juice for one part of vegetable juice )

Drink juices immediately after preparation (unless otherwise advised) - due to contact with air, beneficial substances are quickly destroyed.

Who is useful? Iron, which is so rich in beet juice, is in it in an easily accessible form for the body, is quickly and well absorbed, so beet juice contributes to the formation of blood cells. It is very useful for those who suffer from anemia and women on critical days.

Beneficial features

Freshly squeezed juices from vegetables and fruits saturate the body with vitamins, minerals, macro- and microelements. This allows you to maintain immunity during and after the disease. Freshes have a beneficial effect on the functioning of the cardiovascular and digestive systems. In addition, they have properties such as:

• appetite improvement;
• diuretic effect;
• body cleansing;
• increase in hemoglobin level;
• weight loss.

Each drink is healthy in its own way. If you need to maintain the cardiovascular system, you should give preference to nectar from orange, grapes, grapefruit, pumpkin or beets. To cleanse the body, it is useful to drink pear, grape, beet and pumpkin fresh. With iron deficiency anemia, pomegranate, apple and carrot drinks are indicated. Freshly squeezed vegetable juices are recommended for people with stomach diseases, and white cabbage drink is especially effective.

Drinks based on orange, lemon, carrots and beets will help to improve your mood and tone. Fat-burning properties are possessed by such juices as:

• apple;
• pineapple
• pear;
• beetroot.

When choosing nectar, it is necessary to consider not only the desired result, but also contraindications. Every natural product has them. Before use, you must familiarize yourself with the list of restrictions.

How to drink fresh?

To get the most out of your vitamin drink, you need to know how to drink freshly squeezed juice. At first glance, this is nothing complicated. We pass the fruits through a press or juicer and drink a natural product throughout the day. This is the most common mistake. Most freshies lose their value after 15-30 minutes. Under the influence of ultraviolet and oxygen, the breakdown of nutrients begins. After 2-3 hours, nothing useful remains in the drink; instead, a favorable environment is created for the reproduction of bacteria. Drink juices immediately after preparation.

The only exception is beets. Drinking freshly squeezed beet juice is not recommended. It contains enzymes that can cause nausea and vomiting. To neutralize these substances, the drink must be refrigerated for 2 hours.

The method of preparation also matters. It is not recommended to use metal devices for spinning, as contact with metal starts the oxidation process.

When is it better to drink fresh? You need to consume a fruit drink in the morning, as it contains a large amount of glucose. The optimal time is 1-2 hours after breakfast. Drinking nectar on an empty stomach can cause stomach pain. You can not drink fresh while eating, this can lead to negative consequences:

• abdominal pain;
• heartburn;
• bloating;
• flatulence.

Digestion is a common consequence of the misuse of natural fresh.

It is better to start juice therapy with a small volume of the drink, about 100 ml per day, and gradually increase the serving. The permissible rate of freshness depends on its components. On average, it is 1-2 glasses per day.

Many have heard that nectar needs to be drunk through a straw so as not to damage the tooth enamel. This is so, but few people know that a natural concentrated drink needs to be diluted. So, in pomegranate nectar, you can add water or beetroot fresh. Lemon juice is diluted with water and honey.

Many people prefer mixes of several components, but you need to be able to combine products correctly. So, apple nectar in combination with lemon and beetroot juices improves digestion. In apple juice for weight loss it is better to add melon and honey. The combination of lemon and cucumber drinks helps to remove fluid from the body and get rid of edema.

Mixes of freshly squeezed juice, how to drink? There are many similar recipes, but when mixing juices, you should be guided by the following principles:

• do not mix stone fruits with pome fruits;
• fruits of the same color (red with red, green with green, etc.) are ideally combined.

In order for the vegetable fresh to be better absorbed by the body, it is worth adding a little fat to it. Cream is suitable for a carrot drink, and vegetable oil for a tomato drink. Do not drink fresh instead of water. Freshly squeezed juice has a large amount of nutrients, so the body perceives it as food.

The use of nectar during pregnancy

Is it possible to drink natural juices during pregnancy? Expectant mothers to use fresh fruits are not only possible, but also necessary. A woman at this time needs more vitamins and nutrients than usual. Fresh may well replace the vitamin complexes from the pharmacy. However, not all of them are equally useful.

Safe juices for pregnant women:

• apple;
• carrot;
• pomegranate;
• cabbage.

Due to the risk of anemia, an apple drink is recommended for pregnant women. You need to drink it every day, not exceeding the norm established by the doctor. In addition to iron, the apple contains vitamins A, E, C and B2, as well as a number of trace elements. Apple nectar will help to improve the functioning of the intestines, kidneys and heart. The drink is recommended for breastfeeding. It is contraindicated in pancreatitis.

Carrot juice during pregnancy will help to cope with toxicosis and soothe heartburn. This vegetable drink has a huge amount of vitamin A, which allows you to maintain visual acuity and skin elasticity. It is useful for pregnant women, as it reduces the risk of breaks during childbirth. But everything is good in moderation. The abuse of a carrot drink leads to an excess of vitamin A, which adversely affects the development of the fetus. This fresh should be abandoned in case of obesity or inflammatory bowel disease.

Pomegranate nectar helps restore hemoglobin levels, get rid of edema, and lower blood pressure. Pregnant women need to dilute pomegranate nectar with water. Fresh cabbage contains all the vitamins and minerals necessary for the development of the fetus. Not everyone likes the taste of the drink in order to improve the taste, experts recommend adding honey to it.

With extreme caution, you need to use juices such as:

• cranberry;
• orange;
• grape.

Cranberry fresh is extremely useful, especially during colds, but it can increase the tone of the uterus. Fresh orange can cause a child to be allergic if his mother drank it during pregnancy in large quantities. Grape nectar is rich in vitamins E and K, necessary for normal blood coagulation. But it can provoke nausea, headache and an upset bowel.

Fresh in the diet of a child

It used to be that freshly squeezed juices can be given to children from the age of three months. Today, pediatricians do not recommend introducing a child to fresh before the baby is 1 year old. It is better to start with freshly squeezed apple juice and only 1-2 tsp. every 3 days. Light juices are perceived easier by children, therefore drinks based on peach or carrots are introduced after the baby gets used to apple juice.

The child needs to dilute the juice with water, the proportion depends on the products used. Pear or apple nectar is diluted 1: 1, and concentrated fresh juices, such as pomegranate, are diluted 1: 3. You can give mixed juices not earlier than 3 years. Up to this age, the digestive system is not yet strong enough to absorb multicomponent drinks.

Up to a certain point, the child eats only mother’s milk, receiving from it all the necessary substances. What juices can I drink while breastfeeding?

In the diet of a young mother, apple fresh is first introduced. It is better to start with a few spoons, gradually bringing this amount to 700 ml of juice diluted with water per day. Recommended after childbirth and pomegranates, at first 2-3 grains, if the reaction is normal, the portion is gradually increased to 30 ml per day.

Tomato juice can only be tasted 10 months after delivery. Birch sap stimulates lactation, so it is often recommended for women with HB. However, this drink is not suitable for everyone, an allergic reaction is possible in both the mother and the child. As practice shows, most babies perceive birch sap well. During breastfeeding, you can take 150 ml of the drink during the day. Of vegetable juices, a carrot drink will be a good choice.

The child will benefit from pumpkin juice. It’s enough to drink 200 ml of drink per day to get all the necessary vitamins. In this way, a young mother can cleanse the body.

Any fresh juice can only be started to be drunk 1 month after delivery. Do I need to add water to natural juices? Like children, women in lactation can only diluted fresh.

When losing weight

Using freshly squeezed juices for weight loss, it is better to choose drinks from vegetables. Vegetable juices have less glucose, their calorie content is also significantly lower. Vegetables saturate faster and do not irritate the stomach. The most popular juice for weight loss is cucumber. It speeds up metabolism and removes excess fluid, and its caloric content is only 15-20 kcal per 100 ml.

Not everyone loves juice from celery stalks, but he has no equal in cleansing the body. In addition, the vegetable has fat-burning properties. When losing weight, it is very useful to drink this freshly squeezed juice, the calorie content of the drink is even less than that of cucumber - 12 kcal per 100 ml.

Dietary nutrition can be diversified with freshly squeezed juices such as:

• tomato
• cabbage;
• beetroot;
• carrot;
• pumpkin.

Despite the fact that fruit juices contain a lot of glucose, they also need to be drunk when losing weight. There will be no harm, even if you drink 2 liters of fruit juice (diluted).

Most often they drink orange or grapefruit juices to reduce weight. Citrus fruits have fat-burning properties, which allows you to quickly get rid of extra pounds. How many calories are in these drinks? Grapefruit juice contains 30-38 kcal per 100 ml, and orange - 36-45 kcal / 100 ml.

Apple nectar is also popular. It has enough pulp that normalizes the intestines. An important factor is the high content of vitamins, because, as you know, diet food can not always saturate the body with the necessary substances.

Do not use juices at night, for the body it is food, not drink. The last glass of juice should be drunk no later than 2 hours before bedtime. The classic diet on freshly squeezed juices should not be longer than 3 days. If the diet menu includes other foods, cleansing with juices can be extended up to 1 week.

You can not dramatically change the diet. Need preparation for 3-5 days. During this period, it is worth giving up sweets, flour and meat. Why do you need to prepare? If you suddenly change the usual diet to a liquid diet, cleansing with juices can turn into nausea, dizziness and increased fatigue.

If you decide to use freshly squeezed juices for weight loss, then be prepared for the fact that a 200-gram glass can not do. Nutritionists recommend using a juice diet to drink at least 2 liters of a healing drink during the day. How to cook and consume juices for weight loss?

• You need to drink freshly prepared juice mixed in half with clean water.
• On fasting days do not use anything but juices.
• Organize fasting days regularly.
• It is useful to create cocktails by mixing various juices.

In addition, various juices have their own characteristics of preparation and dosage. Some use only in mini doses: a spoonful once or twice a day.

Slimming Vegetable Juices

Slimming vegetables juices are a great way to lose weight “with taste” and pleasure. The vitamins and minerals that abound in the gifts of fields and summer cottages are indispensable products in the diet of a person who prefers a healthy diet. Vitamins are active participants in the metabolism; they have the property of “being washed out" of the body. Vegetables and juices from them replenish these reserves and thus contribute to active metabolism.

The most popular juices for weight loss are prepared from ordinary vegetables growing in each garden: cabbage, cucumbers, tomatoes, celery, carrots. These low-calorie drinks perform their tasks as well as possible.

• Cabbage is considered exclusively a vitamin and healing vegetable. Fiber leaves excellent job with cleaning the intestines, juice cures diseases of the digestive tract. To get a glass of juice, you need to pass 2 - 3 heads of white-headed vegetable through a juicer.

Cucumber contains 96% water, in which trace elements are dissolved, in particular, potassium, which is necessary for the functioning of the kidneys and heart. Acts as a mild laxative and diuretic.

A drink from celery stalks has a diuretic and laxative effect, cleanses toxins, and stimulates fat burning. Normalizes blood sugar.

Carrot juice is a real storehouse of healthy ingredients. Contains antioxidants, volatile, improves vision, removes toxins, resists stress.

Slimming Tomato Juice

Tomato juice for weight loss is low in calories. Drunk before meals, it prepares the stomach for eating, stimulates digestion, inhibiting fermentation and stagnation.

The drink contains volatile, is used to prevent malignant neoplasms. It is recommended for pregnant women, but not recommended for people with stones and other digestive and kidney problems.

Many people prefer a salted drink, but salt, according to nutritionists, reduces the healing qualities. Instead of salt, you can add chopped garlic or greens to the slimming juice.

Slimming Celery Juice

Celery juice for weight loss is obtained from the fleshy stems of the plant. You can cope with durable fiber raw materials using an electric juicer. To prepare a glass of juice for weight loss, you need a large bunch of stems cut on the vine.

Celery drink - natural diuretic: 1 glass gives a persistent diuretic effect. It burns fats perfectly, removes excess fluid, cleans slags, and normalizes sugar. With problems caused by dehydration, it easily copes with constipation.

Slimming Beetroot Juice

Red beet juice is saturated with a whole bunch of vitamins and minerals. Stimulates blood formation, normalizes the nervous system during stress and other overloads, has a beneficial effect on the digestive tract. Beetroot juice for weight loss facilitates the condition of women in the days of menstruation.

However, beet juice also contains harmful components that evaporate, or rather, are destroyed in the open air. To remove these substances, it is enough to keep the drink in the cold, in an open jar, for 2 to 3 hours.

However, even a settled drink sometimes provokes dizziness, nausea and vomiting. Therefore, the dose of juice for weight loss should be increased gradually, and immediately before use, mix with water or other fresh (cabbage, carrot, pumpkin). And for people with an ulcer or kidney, such a drink is generally contraindicated.

Aloe juice for weight loss

As a medicine, the aloe plant is known to everyone, but information on the benefits of aloe juice for weight loss is relatively new. Losing weight with aloe is not difficult: it is enough to take juice correctly. The result is achieved and quickly harmless to the body due to the complex effect of the drink in the right direction:

• acts as a mild laxative (after 6 - 8 hours);
• accelerates metabolic processes;
• stimulates the formation of digestive juices.

All this helps to gradually and safely reduce body weight.

Juice for weight loss is obtained from fleshy leaves, whose age exceeds 3 years, from a length of 15 cm. A slightly dried tip is a guarantee of a high concentration of useful components. Another secret is to stop watering the plant 3 days before leaf cutting. You need to cut it with a non-metallic knife or gently tear it off with your hands, because some healing qualities of aloe are lost from contact with metals.

Unlike those slimming juices that are drunk in glasses immediately after preparation, aloe juice is measured with teaspoons, drinking one twice a day. More precisely, in the evening - 20 minutes before dinner and directly to the future. This scheme is designed for 2 weeks. In the days when you are at home, juice can be consumed three times.

Drinking can be kept in the refrigerator for several days, and after use, prepare a fresh portion.

Slimming Cabbage Juice

Juice from cabbage leaves contains carbohydrates, vitamins, amino acids, folic acid, a whole list of trace elements. A special ingredient is vitamin U with antiulcer properties. Thanks to this, the drink is an effective prophylactic against exacerbation of gastric ulcers and 12-colon colon, treats stomatitis and gingivitis.

A fresh drink is interesting in that it inhibits the conversion of sugars into fat reserves. Cabbage juice for weight loss should be drunk on an empty stomach, as well as half an hour before each meal during the day.

It should be noted that from juice for weight loss in its pure form, heartburn can occur, since the acidity of the stomach increases. To avoid this, it is recommended to dilute fresh with boiled water or juice from cucumber. With exacerbation of gastritis and ulcers, the drink is contraindicated.

Slimming Pumpkin Juice

A natural pumpkin drink is used as a juice for weight loss due to the fact that it is able to improve the digestive system, remove cardiac and renal edema, and stimulate urination. It is enriched with magnesium, cobalt, copper and many vitamins.

A morning serving of pumpkin juice for weight loss - half a glass. Fresh is also used to treat kidney stones. Drink in small portions (from a quarter to half a glass) three times a day, for 10 days.

A drink is also useful for sleep disorders; honey is added to it and they drink in a glass while going to bed.

Juice is contraindicated in people with hypersensitivity to the substances that make up the pumpkin.

Slimming Ginger Juice

Ginger is used both as a spicy supplement to dishes and teas, and as a medicine. It contains vitamin C, essential oils, has a pungent taste and aroma. In folk medicine, it is used as an anti-inflammatory and to enhance immunity.

Ginger juice is also effective, for example, to reduce body weight. The problem is how to get this juice for weight loss, because not too juicy rhizomes can be crushed to the desired consistency only with a powerful juicer.

If there is one, then for those who want to lose weight - two news at once: bad and good. The bad thing is that even a kilogram of juicy raw materials is unlikely to produce more than 180 ml of juice. The good thing is that ginger juice for weight loss is not required to drink in glasses, just 1 tablespoon per day, mixed with other drinks.

• In particular, such a drink well suppresses hunger: 3 parts of apples, 2 parts of celery, 1 part of ginger. A portion is drunk in three divided doses, together with a glass of water, before meals.

Ginger root also goes well with carrots, fennel, cucumbers, tomatoes.

Slimming Carrot Juice

This is one of the most useful juices for weight loss, although the taste of a natural drink is for everyone. Carrot juice for weight loss is able to conduct a general improvement of the digestive organs. In addition, it has other useful properties because it contains:

• vitamin A, which improves vision;
• potassium, cobalt and other minerals;

• anti-aging antioxidant;
• volatile for protection against colds;
• anti-stress substance daucosterol.

Juice from this root crop rejuvenates the skin, removes heavy metals and toxins from the liver. It is important not to forget that fats are necessary for the absorption of beta-carotene, therefore, the juice must be “stuck” with something suitable. On the other hand, you should not get too carried away with carrot juice so as not to overload the liver with this substance (an overdose is indicated by yellowing of the skin). The recommended dose is up to half a liter per day.

But even this healing drink has contraindications: fresh is not recommended for people with peptic ulcer disease.

Slimming potato juice

Potato juice is rich in easily digestible carbohydrates, amino acids and a whole list of important minerals. In particular, potassium, which is not formed in the body, therefore, must come from outside.

Potato juice for weight loss is used as an effective tool that activates digestion, improves microflora, and prevents constipation. It is part of a 2-week seasonal diet.

Juice for weight loss is prepared from quality potatoes, preferably from varieties that have a pinkish tint. The peeled tubers are rubbed on a grater and squeezed out or passed through a juicer. The daily norm is 2 times 150 g of fresh juice, half an hour before breakfast and lunch. This amount is enough to achieve the desired result within the specified period.

The drink is drunk fresh, while it stores a maximum of useful components. Potato juice is also successfully used in the treatment of a whole list of diseases.

Radish Juice for Weight Loss

Some consider the benefit of radish juice for weight loss a myth. They say that it completely lacks metabolic accelerators that “burn” fats.

However, the benefits of radish and its juice for weight loss are undeniable - due to the low nutritional value and fiber, which fills the stomach and inhibits the feeling of hunger. Insoluble dietary fiber of a vegetable for a long time provides a feeling of satiety, which is very important for a person who wants to lose weight.

However, other vegetables with a more pleasant and mild taste also possess such properties.

Removing fresh fruit and raw vegetable juices  with the help of a juicer, we get almost all the most valuable from these products. All juices in large quantities contain vitamins, minerals and vital enzymes. All freshly prepared juices are digested by the body for several minutes, and after a very short time they are completely absorbed by the body.

A juicer must be a part of your kitchen utensil just like a mixer. The taste of freshly made juices has nothing to do with the taste of ordinary industrial juices; they cannot be compared with the latter in terms of nutrient content. Try to include a large glass of juice on your menu daily.

When making juices, usually vegetables and fruits are never mixed with each other. However, there are two exceptions to this rule. It is allowed to mix apples with various vegetables, and celery can be mixed with fruits. Despite the fact that carrot juice is very popular, the benefits of drinking it will increase significantly if you mix this juice with juices from other vegetables. Try to somehow cook the following combined vegetable juices: carrots, celery, cucumbers, carrots, asparagus cabbage, apples or carrots, tomatoes, celery.

Never peel vegetables and fruits. Of course, an exception must be made for those of them whose peels are very rough - for pineapples, citrus fruits and other similar fruits and vegetables. In all other cases, it is recommended to simply scrape the peel with a special brush to peel vegetables under a stream of cold water.

It is necessary to cut and peel vegetables and fruits just before juice is prepared from them.

If the fruits are hard, it is better to cook from them juice. And in its natural form, you can eat soft and ripe fruits.

Drink fruit and vegetable juices  best immediately after cooking. Otherwise, they oxidize very quickly, an almost complete loss of vitamins, and also the destruction of extremely unstable enzymes.

As noted above, it is most beneficial to drink freshly made juices. However, in case of emergency, it is allowed to store vegetable and fruit juices, but only in airtight vessels, at low temperatures and only for several hours.

Always drink juices in small sips. Never pour them into yourself in one gulp.

In order for vegetable and fruit juices to be better absorbed by the body, drink them on an empty stomach. It is not recommended to drink food with juices or drink them after eating.

If possible, try to make sure that the juicer is always at your fingertips and ready to go. Remember, the more difficult it will be for you to get to any device, the less often you will use it.
