The Health Benefits of Raw Fresh Juice Recipes


Easy assimilation of nutrients, vitamins, minerals, enzymes and other good stuff is the wonderful health benefits of raw fresh juice recipes! With whole fruits and veggies your body has to work somewhat harder to break down and process those nutrients.

With fresh juice recipes the mixed nutrients and enzymes are liberated from the pulp and the cells of your body can take in the nutrition much more quickly and easily. This allows the body to focus on detoxifying, cleansing and resting. To get a quick and more easily absorbed burst of nutrition – daily raw juice recipes can do it due to easily assimilation into your body.

Fresh juices provide lots of water for your body. The cells of our body are mostly made up of water. And water is essential for proper cell functioning. We need lots of hydration throughout the day for our best health. Raw fresh juice (unlike dehydrators like coffee, soft drinks and alcohol) hydrates you and supplies the water that your body needs to replenish fluid that is lost in daily activities and body function.

Raw fresh juice not only provides hydration through the water in the vegetable and fruits, it also provides vitamins, minerals, enzymes and phytochemicals (Phytochemicals have protective or disease preventive properties). You can say that fresh juices are a health bomb that improves your health almost over night. Raw fresh juice recipes also makes your body more alkaline which boosts your body’s immunity and metabolic functioning.

Fresh vegetables and fruit juices are a “healthy fast food.” It only takes a few minutes to prepare fresh juice recipes and it is an easy way to get some of the recommended servings of fruit and vegetables that you need every day. This technique is also extremely effective when it comes to fast weight loss for you can dose the amount of calories and nutrients you take in by adjusting your juicer recipes.

Juicing Recipes for Eye Health Vitamins


Eating carrots help you see in the dark my grandparents would tell me. Although they had no idea of the science behind this, it has been known for a long time that carrots really are good for your peepers and do indeed help prevent night blindness.

Vitamin A
tray of vegetablesVitamin A is the nutrient most associated with eye health (and carrots) and is actually one of the most important nutrients for eyes. Why so? Vitamin A is a water soluble antioxidant. It can work within the eyes to prevent cell damage from free radicals and reduce the risk of developing eye diseases such as age related macular degeneration (AMD). Vitamin A can help prevent cataracts from developing and vitamin A deficiency will lead to night blindness. If the deficiency continues, night blindness will progress into xerophthalmia causing dry eyes and corneal ulcers and eventually complete blindness.

Juicing for Vitamin A Food Sources: carrots, spinach, kale, broccoli, tomatoes, kiwi, blackberries, oranges and watermelon.

Vitamins C & E
blackberryVitamin C and E don’t have as high a profile as vitamin A for eye health, but they also play an important role in the well being of our eyes. Both vitamin C and E have been associated in studies with delaying age related macular degeneration. Vitamin C can reduce the risk of developing cataracts and may also prevent glaucoma.

Vitamin C Food Sources: oranges, blackberries, watermelon, kiwi, grapes, carrots, broccoli, cucumber, kale and spinach.

Vitamin E Food Sources: blackberries, apples and Kiwi.
