Raw JuicingLet Your Creative Juices Flow
Vegetable juicing allows our bodies to assimilate large quantities of raw organic food with out having to eat them which would take some time, this is also excellent if you are juicing for healing purposes.
Just about all vegetables can be juiced, adding certain fruits can sweeten up the taste and flavour. Carrot juice would be a good start as fresh carrots are almost always sweet, just make sure they are not too old as they can become bitter. The darker the green vegetable the better for nutrient value, some of the darker varieties can be a bit bitter also such as kale, adding beet or celery or an apple can sweeten this up. If you are going juice, organic vegetables are a must as certain vegetables retain chemical residue very easily, particularly celery and capsicum. Wild herbs are excellent for flavour, the healing herb power of wild herbs are underestimated and should be part of your raw food diet.
Juicing raw fruits are delicious, However, if you need watch your blood sugar level you need to be aware of the amount of sugar you are consuming as most fruits are naturally high in sugar. Vegetable juices will not raise your blood sugar levels.
