Delicious Ways to Enjoy Vegetable Juicing for Weight Loss

The following is from Jonny Bowden’s New You In 22.

Many heath experts, myself included,  are advocates of vegetable juicing for weight loss, and will easily recommend vegetable juices as part of an effective weight loss plan.

The thing is most people are not fond of vegetables. If you are one of these people, here are delicious ways to enjoy vegetable juices and benefit from their weight loss abilities.

Gourmet Green Drink

Contrary to common belief, green drinks are actually delicious. You can choose from any or a combination of the following for your green drink recipe:

• Wheatgrass
• Barley grass
• Magma
• Broccoli
• Spinach
• Kale
• Parsley
• Other green leafy vegetables

Drinking your greens make vegetable consumption more palatable for fussy eaters or for those who are not fond of veggies. This is one delicious way to meet your recommended vegetable servings for weight loss.

Some of the remarkable benefits you can get from your green drink are the following:

1. Excellent source of nutrients that will allow you to stay healthy while dropping the pounds fast.
2. Purifies your blood and removes the toxins from your body. Toxic substances interfere with the functions of your body systems resulting in poor health condition including excessive weight.
3. Promotes overall health condition, and increases your energy levels to do all the activities you plan to do throughout the day.

Smoothie Your Greens

One of the more effective ways to lose weight healthily is to drink protein shakes for breakfast. You can create your own drink by juicing your green vegetables. For variety, you can create succulent green smoothies that will give you the following benefits:

• Your body receives plant-based protein. In many ways, plant-based protein is healthier than animal-based protein. Veggies contain chlorophyll rich in alkaline.This will restore the good balance between alkaline-acid in your body, considering that the American diet today is highly acidic. The good balance of acid-alkaline is essential in weight management.
• Vegetables are an excellent source of fiber. WebMD, in fact, recommends the consumption of fiber-rich food for weight loss. Health experts say that dietary fiber has that power to fill your stomach without the risks of storing unnecessary fats in the body.In a study that monitors the big weight losers, most of these individuals are habitual breakfast eaters with fiber-rich food as part of their staple meals.
• Juicing your veggies makes it easier for your body to absorb the nutrients. As soon as the smoothie touches your mouth, digestion and abruption of nutrients begin.

Vegetable juicing for weight loss will turn green veggies into an appetizing beverage that adults and kids will both love. According to Dr. Jonny Bowden, juicing is at its best when you use green vegetables as ingredients.
