Juicing might be one of the newest health crazes, but it has long been a time-tested method proven to improve your health, purify your digestive systems (and body as a whole) and replenish your body with tons of essential nutrients.
Juices, whether packed with veggies or fruits (or both), are a fast and easy way to get lots of vitamins and minerals your body needs. And the fact that you can squeeze multiple fruits into one, easy-to-drink, delicious beverage definitely adds to the appeal. You can take it with you on-the-go or keep it in your fridge for a quick refreshing snack. Either way, fresh, healthy juices should be on your daily list of go-to snacks. And I say snack because, really, when you’re juicing right, you can have anywhere from one to 10, maybe more, servings of fruits or veggies per glass.
With so many benefits, if you’re not juicing already, it’s time to get on board. But there are many juicers out there. Depending on whether you are a first-time juicer focused on making fresh orange juice or an experienced blender combining a plethora of fruits and veggies, there are different juicers that best fit your needs.
