Drinking fresh juice has a very long list of health benefits. It’s no wonder why nutritionists love to add juice to their clients’ diets. Here are a few of the most common juicing benefits:
 

1. Potential Weight Loss Aid

You’ve gotten this far, so you already know that juicing can help you lose weight.

Depending on the fruits and vegetables that you’re consuming, it’s possible that your morning, afternoon or evening juice are lower in calories than your normal snacks.

In many cases, this can mean that you’re calorie deficient, which is a great way to get your body into fat-burning/pound-shedding mode. Although we do recommend eating healthy meals throughout your day, juicing is a great (and delicious) supplement for any fruits, vegetables and superfoods you may be missing.
 

2. Increased Vitamins, Minerals, Enzymes and Antioxidants In Your Diet

Juicing can provide the body with a healthy source of vitamins and minerals. These key nutrients help us grow, think, work and so much more. High levels of vitamin C, vitamin A, potassium and more (even calcium) are often found in our favorite juices.

Fresh juices also tend to be rich in antioxidants. For example, beta-carotene is an abundant antioxidant in red/orange-colored fruits and veggie. When consumed, Beta-carotene is converted to vitamin A by the body.

It’s worth noting that raw vegetable juice is also a good source of enzymes. That said, the enzymes from juice likely do not help your body digest food as you might expect.
 

3. Reduces Inflammation

Are you suffering from pain or inflammation of any kind? Then juicing may be a great supplement for you due to its anti-inflammatory properties.

​

4. Boosts Energy

One of the many ways we can increase our energy levels is through ingesting more foods that have B vitamins. This includes leafy greens, some citrus fruits, beets, ginger, and more. Juicing is a fast, healthy, and easy way to get these B vitamins into your system and boost your metabolism. No caffeine needed!
 

5. Great for Detoxing the Body

A typical detox diet involves a period of fasting. This is followed by a diet of strictly fruit, vegetables, juices, and water.
 

​

6. Can Help Lower Cholesterol Levels

Loads of different fruits and vegetables can help lower your cholesterol. Just to name a few: carrots, kale, grapefruit and apples. Sure, you can eat the whole fruits. But doesn’t a glass of fresh juice sound so much more refreshing?

​

7. Boosts Immune System

When you’re sick (or want to avoid sickness), few natural wellness remedies outperform juice.
If you want immune system support, try juice with these ingredients:​

• Green apple

• Carrot

• Beets

• Turmeric

• Ginger root

• Mint leaves and other leafy greens
  This is far from an exhaustive list of fruits that are good for your immune system. 

 

 

8. Can Help Lower Blood Pressure and Blood Sugar

Need to lower your blood pressure fast? Reaching for an apple isn’t your only option. Try a glass of beet juice, watermelon juice or berry juice! Same goes for blood sugar. Apples, berries, and more are great for lowering blood sugar levels

 

9. Aids Your Digestive System

Juicing is a fun and easy way to gain control over your gut health. Apples, for example, are great for aiding digestive processes. Mint leaves can help reduce gas. Ginger promotes good digestion. The list goes on and on!

 

10. Protects Against Disease

The many nutrients your body gets from fruits and vegetables are vital for protection against diseases. If you don’t typically consume fruits and vegetables, juicing is a great option!

 

Final Thoughts

If you’re unhappy with your current diet, juicing is a great way to jump-start your weight loss journey. You can attempt juice fasting or simply incorporate more juice into your daily routine.
