Green Juice

Has anyone heard of the green juice before? Not only its super green it’s very healthy for you. What it consists of is all the green vegetable you can think of, yes even zucchini. Most nutritionist recommends fresh greens which you will need assistance of a juicer for optimal nutrition.

Due to the standard American diet that mainly consist of processed, full of artificial flavorings and chemicals, it’s impairing our body from fully absorbing all the nutrition from the vegetables or from any other food for a matter of fact. When juicing, all the body is taking in is a liquid which helps pre-digest the nutrients for the body instead of just passing it through the body as feces.

Not to mention, we don’t get enough of our vegetables in our everyday diet, so juicing alone can bring in most of our recommended fruits and vegetables that we need. So if green juice doesn’t sound tasty, just use fresh fruits instead. For more information go here.

This website allonhealth.com, is advertising a type of green juice supplement. For those who are always on the go, they can choose this alternative. This company promotes green juice mixtures. They have five main claims about their product: Chlorophyll, Trace minerals, Vegetable Protein Enzymes, and Alkalizing abilities.

Chlorophyll is used in various treatments from periodontal disease, diabetes and low iron, to open wounds, ulcers and body odor. This green plants chemical makeup is similar to hemoglobin in the blood that transports oxygen throughout the body. The only difference between the two chemical structures is that the center element of chlorophyll is magnesium, while the center element of hemoglobin is iron. Research shows that the chlorophyll can be converted to hemoglobin in turn increase flow of oxygen throughout the body which will reduce fatigue.

There are certain parts of the body that should be alkaline meaning having a nuetral pH of 7, for example our circulatory system and when it’s lacking the neutral pH, it takes the alkaline properties form other places of the body.  The first place it “borrows” alkaline properties from is the mouth, so if it gets too acidic we can develop cavities, plaque, bleeding gums, periodontal disease, and bad breath. The small intestine also needs to be in an alkaline state to regulate the passage of glucose through the intestine. If we are able to alkalize it we will start noticing potential weight loss, increased energy, and higher metabolism.

Green foods can reverse the acidic process in the body. So when drinking green juice it has the ability to strengthening the gums, reduce plaque, and eliminates cavities  and most importantly, by normalizing the pH of the oral cavity of the mouth, supposedly food taste better and we’ll develop a will power for not desiring the unhealthy stuff.

With this in mind, when wanting to change your life to a healthier lifestyle, try detoxifying the body with green juice first before anything else for optimal health.
