These Juicing Tips Make Juicing Easy!

Of course you already know that making your own juice is a great way to get your daily vitamins and nutrients. These juicing tips will help you to make it even easier to enjoy these life-enhancing drinks!

1. Store your juicer in a handy location where you can put it to use at the drop of a hat. Not only will you make it easier on yourself to go ahead and make that yummy juice, but you’ll also be constantly reminded of all the nutrients you’re missing out on if you choose not to use your juicer.
2. Watch how various fruits affect your teeth when juicing. Some fruit and vegetable juices stain the surface of your teeth – like carrot and beet juices. It’s not a problem, but it’s a good idea to simply brush your teeth as soon as possible after drinking, especially if your teeth easily stain.
3. Add more low-calorie ingredients to make a nutritious juice that also helps you burn fat.  Broccoli, kale, cabbage, herbs, and other dark greens fit into this category. Fruits that have a high fiber content are also great choices, as they use additional body resources to digest them properly.
4. Try to avoid excessively sweet fruits in your juices. Remember that the juice you produce will be concentrated, so very sweet fruits will deliver a powerful sugar punch that could cause a blood sugar spike. A good way to avoid this is to pick some veggies and juice those instead. You can incorporate a small amount of fruit for flavour. Add fruit to juices in quantity only as a special treat.
5. Tailor your juices or smoothies to suit your fitness regimen. For example, add more protein if you lift weights, or more electrolytes if you’re running.
6. Mix cranberries with sweeter fruits such as strawberries or (even better) sweet vegetables such as carrots. This helps take the edge off of the cranberries’ bitter taste. A good combination is a vegetable juice or smoothie with cranberries and another berry such as strawberries or blueberries. Create your own signature recipe to suit your taste.
7. Let juicing put you on the track to healthier living. It can serve as a foundation for your entire eating plan.
8. Are you out of ideas for new, fresh smoothies? Keep your interest high by alternating old favorites with new exciting combinations. You’ll find 100 recipes FREE here (download them now), and even more delicious recipes in “Ultimate Juices and Smoothies“.
9. If you do not want pulp, use a coffee filter. Reduce the pulp by straining the juice through a cheesecloth or a coffee filter before drinking the juice.
10. As soon as you make your juice, drink it immediately. Once the juice has been made, it begins losing nutrients. If you take a long time to drink it, you’ll be getting fewer of the benefits of the beverage. It is therefore advisable to drink your juice as soon as possible.
11. Get more from your fruit and vegetables with a masticating juicer. These juicers use a more gentle approach to bringing out the juice, which helps to keep more nutrients in the liquid. The juice you create will also be able to be stored.
12. Find a juicer that works efficiently at lower speed settings. Faster juicers  get hot, which leads to a breakdown in the quality of the juice, losing vital nutrients in the process.
13. If your bladder is upset, or if you’ve got a urinary tract infection, try juicing cranberries. This works best if started soon after the initial signs of discomfort.
14. Enjoyed these juicing tips? Here’s a final one: Include the skins and peels of fruits when you juice them. The peels and skin are packed with antioxidants, fiber and nutrients. Often, the peel has more flavonoids than the fruit does. Such is the case with the apple. The peels from grapefruits and oranges , however, are not appropriate for juicing. If you’re including the skins and peels, it’s best to use organic produce, in order to minimise the pesticide residue you ingest.
