Health Tip #1
 
It is not a special diet that you need, just for a short while.
But a life-long healthy change to your daily diet.
A New Eatting Approach and Style!
It is important to learn as much as you can...
And pass what you learn to your children!
 

 
Health Tip #2
 
Boost your calcium intake by mixing fresh berries with
plain, lowfat or flavored vanilla yogurt in a blender for a
nutritional, cool, refreshing smoothie drink.

Juice it up with homemade juicy juice!
 
 
 
"You are what you eat" AND "What you drink" !!
 
A glass of fresh homemade juice can be a great substitute for a mini-meal. We should have several mini-meals throughout the day to help keep our metabolism running!!
 
These days...people do not eat enough raw fruits and vegetables.
Juicing is a fast and easy way to increase your daily intake of the fruits and veggies that you are suppose to consume daily.
Juicing is recommended in addition to a high fiber diet of whole grains, fruit and vegetable... not to replace it!! 
 
You can buy many juices in the grocery store...tasty...yes...
but they often contain sugar, additives, preservatives,
other ingredients and they are pasteurized.
Another drawback is that they loose valuable nutrients during the bottling process.
 
If you must buy already made juices...try buying fresh, from farm stands...
 
Now to get into the subject of a much healthier alternative...
Juicing!!
 
Home Juicing can save you some money and if you make your own fresh juice you will have control over the quality of the fruits and vegetables you use to make your own juice.
Do we really know the quality of the fruit in manufactored bottled fruit juices?
When you make your own juice...you add no salt or saturated fats...
You know what goes into your product!!
Another added plus...
You can rest asure and know that you are getting your daily nutrient requirements through the nutrition of the juice that you are making.
It is estimated that nutrients are absorbed by your body within 20-30 minutes of drinking your fresh juice.
 
There are many benefits of home juicing...
Let us explore these benefits...
 
1) Juicing is high in vitamins, minerals and enzymes, essential fatty acids, carbohydrates, proteins and much more.
Enzymes make food easier to digest!!
 
2) Juicing Fruits and Vegetables contain concentrated phyto-chemicals and antioxidants.
Phyto-chemicals are compounds that help fight cancers.

3) Fresh Juice is a natural blood cleanser
 
4) Detoxifies the body and flush toxins from your body.
 
5) Fresh juice promotes regularity of your bowels.
 
6) Fresh Juice strengthens your immune system.
 
7) Fresh Juice with all its nutrients have proven healing properties.

8) Helps to fight many diseases.
 
9) Reduces the acidity in your body
 
10) Supplies you with energy
 
11) Home Juicing is good for diet, weight control, and your overall well being.
 
12) You will develope a glowing complexion
 
13) Helps make our hair shiny
 
14) Fruits and vegetables has a substance that is essential for good our health, and most of us do not consume enough of it....WATER!!!
Fruit and vegetable juices contain a lot of much needed water!!
See Diet-Depots back issues on water:
and
 
15) It is quick to make, a cince to prepare and the juice is absorbed by your body fast and easy.
 
 
It is recommended that you drink at least 16 ounces of freshly squeezed juice each day.
 
 
Here is an interesting fact:
Approximately one cup of carrot juice is equivalent to four cups of raw, chopped carrots.
 
Some nutrients are lost cause they trapped in the fiber of the whole fruit/vegetable...
Here is an example:
When you eat a raw carrot, you are only able to use about 1% of the carrots available beta carotene. When a carrot is juiced, removing the fiber, nearly 100% of the beta carotene can be used.
 
NOTE: Please remember that fiber has its own benefits to our diets and health...Continue to get enough whole fiber if you are also juicing.
Juicing and eating whole fiber, work together in your daily diet very nicely and go together, hand in hand!!
 
When juiced....
the nutrients of the fruit and vegetables enter our bloodstream much more quickly. Much quicker then when eaten whole and when they must go through the digestive system process. 
 
Benefits of Fruits and Vegetables
 
The phytochemicals in fruits and vegetables are wonderful.
 
Broccoli, Brussel sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, carrots, collards, kale,  mustard greens, rutabaga, turnip greens, red beets, peppers, garlic, onions, leeks, and chives are a few of the vegetables that appear to have cancer-preventing phytochemicals.
 
Broccoli contains a substance that may prevent breast cancer.
 
Many green vegetables offer protection againest cancers.
 
Researchers are looking into the cancer-prevention abilities of citrus fruits, apples and grapes.
 
Grapes contain a phytochemical that protect each of your cells' DNA from damage.
 
Citrus fruits have a substance that help your body to remove carcinogens, decreasing the chance of contracting cancer.
 
Chlorophyll, a substance found in plants, is similar to hemoglobin, the substance in blood that  transports oxygen...chlorophyll helps the body produce hemoglobin, improving the efficiency of the oxygen transport throughout your body.
 
Enzymes..
 
Fresh juices are a wonderful source of enzymes.
Enzymes that play important roles in protecting your cells from damage.
Enzymes are very important for the absorption and digestion of your food. For conversion of the foods into your body tissues, and for producing energy. Enzymes are very critical for your bodies metabolic activities.
When you cook vegetables, fruit and grains, enzymes are destroyed by heat.
When fruits and raw vegetables are juiced, the enzymes are still there.
 

 
Some Pointers for Home Juicing:
 
 
 
1) You can make many juice combinations, from carrot juice,
to many fruits and vegetables combinations:
cucumber, cabbage, celery, beets,  variety of lettuce leaves, tomatoes, broccoli, parsley, mint, bananas, apples, oranges, plums, mangos, papaya, pineapple, watermelon, cranberry, cherries, grapefruit, and melons, etc.
Use your imagination....
Experiment....
Get recipe books for juicing...
Be daring and try adding some wheat grass, kale, dandelion,
and other herbs.
 
2) Buy organically grown produce. There will be less chemicals in your juice.
 
3) When using organically grown produce, you can leave the skin on, with most fruits.
These are the fruits that you must remove the skins!!
apricots, oranges, peaches, grapefruits, kiwis, papayas, and of cause pineapples.
 
4) The skins from lemons and limes may be left on when juicing. Be sure to wash them first.
 
5) When you not using organically grown produce, thoroughly wash the produce using a kitchen  vegetable brush or peel it. You want to remove any chemical residue (pesticides) and waxes.
 
Must Do List:
 
1) Apple seeds contain cyanide, so you must remove the seeds before juicing.
 
2) Remove plum pits and peach pits.
 
3) Seeds from grapes, melons, lemons, and limes, etc. may be put into your juicer. They will not harm you.
 
4) Do not juice the carrot greens or rhubarb greens because of their toxicity.
 
5) When peeling the skins of oranges and grapefruits leave the white part just below the skin.That white part contains bioflavonoids and vitamin C.
 
6) The leaves of celery are bitter, so you may want to remove them to avoid adding the bitter taste to your juice.

This juice benefits intestinal walls, bones, teeth, skin, hair, nails and with regular use, cleanses the liver by helping to release stale bile and excess fats.
