Any person is familiar with the feeling of wanting something tasty that is both useful and low-calorie, gives energy and makes you healthier. In the refrigerator, as a rule, there are only eggs, milk, yogurt, as well as various fruits and vegetables. You can make a glass of fresh juice from these products, which will help you feel better and be energetic. This is a very useful drink, especially during the season of juicy August fruits and berries – apples, pears, blueberries, blueberries, melons, watermelon, peaches, apricots, etc.
Fresh juices are freshly prepared juices with fruits, vegetables and sometimes herbs.
Any such drink is, first of all, water with a complex of vitamins, minerals and fiber (if you blend the fruit with the peel). This is a panacea for all diseases in one glass! It is especially useful for the body not to prefer one type of fresh juice, but to combine vegetables and fruits, creating various cocktails. Such a drink is indispensable during a diet and on fasting days – it creates a feeling of satiety, at the same time, it has low calorie content.
For example, celery, apple, cucumber, ginger, carrot and pumpkin in various variations are recommended for weight loss. Such products help to improve metabolism, promote the removal of waste products, excess water from the body, and normalize the activity of the gastrointestinal tract.
To improve the health of the nervous system, concentration and productivity, fresh juices with citrus fruits, pineapple, kiwi, watermelon and wild berries are recommended. You can also add herbs such as mint and thyme.
To strengthen the immune system, vegetable juices rich in vitamins and trace elements are recommended: tomato, pumpkin, carrot combinations. Spicy herbs and garlic are often added to such juices.
The benefit of fresh juices for the human body is undeniable, but everyone knows that all products, drinks, dishes must be consumed in moderation, especially those that have medicinal properties. So what should those who love fresh juices be afraid of?
Even if you are not diabetic, you should not forget about the high sugar content in juices: bloating and the multiplication of harmful bacteria in the intestines can be the result of frequent drinking of even fresh juices, especially if you drink such a drink with food. Therefore, it is recommended to consume fresh 30-40 minutes before a meal, or 2 hours after a meal. If you have diabetes, it is better to choose other drinks, such as tea, compote without sugar or just water. If the doctor allows you to drink fresh juices, be sure to take sugar-lowering drugs (such as Daonil and Glizide) on time.
You should not drink concentrated juices, as they harm not only the gastrointestinal tract, increasing acidity, but also negatively affect the enamel of your teeth.
Attention should also be paid to the individual characteristics of the body, for example, allergic reactions to this or that product!
In any case, try to fully enjoy the freshness of fruits and vegetables in the form of juices and at the same time do not overdo it with the choice of such drinks.
