The ABC's of Daily Juicing

Who has time to wash, chop, and juice fruits and veggies all day? No one! But, we can’t ignore the powerful benefits of antioxidants found in pomegranate, the fabulous fiber in field greens, and all of the delicious superfoods on the market today. The facts are in, and hands down we all should all be juicing daily! Juicing has become all the rage because, believe it or not, you can get the same buzz (only a lot healthier!) than the buzz you get from caffeine from a freshly squeezed juice.

When your body absorbs the antioxidants and vitamins you get from daily juices so quickly, you literally feel an increase in energy combined with the hydration you gain from the extra water you consume (not to mention the health boost from the vitamins, minerals, and powerful enzymes found in mother nature). So, before BalanceDiet reveals just how easy it is to actually incorporate this powerful substance into your diet, let’s dive deeper into the ABC’s of juicing:

Daily Juicing: A is for Antioxidants

What comes to mind when you hear the term: “The Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity” or ORAC? Probably nothing. But it is an important term to know when you are exploring the benefits of daily juicing because it is the unit of measurement for antioxidants developed by the National Institute on Aging in the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Yes! That means the higher the ORAC score, the more potent the antioxidants will be! The wonderful benefit of juicing every day is that you can fit many highly scored foods into a delicious drink and thus, increase the absorbency of oxygen and decrease the absorbency of free radicals into your cells, making it easier to produce new cells and keep those aging cells young and rejuvenated. This is an amazing phenomenon and a powerful reason why we all should be figuring out how to fit in that daily juice!
