Guest guest Posted November 2, 2003 Report Share Posted November 2, 2003 Juicing is the best way to get pure vegetable into your body....

But it's not easy for busy people to eat as many as they should. In doing nutrition counseling with patients, I found that even people who said they like vegetables and salads only managed to eat a few servings a day. > > In countries where they eat more vegetables than we do and have less cancer and heart disease, they enjoy a wide variety of vegetables prepared in imaginative ways. This, of course, takes time and effort, but there's an easy way to consume a larger quantity and variety of vegetables. In a way that's also enjoyable. We combine vegetables such as zucchini, broccoli, spinach, shredded or diced, with an equal amount of water, simmer 5 to 10 minutes with onion, garlic, basil, salt and pepper, then put the whole thing in a blender and blend until smooth. The bulk of the vegetables produces a thick, smooth soup. You can also use a food processor and get a little coarser texture. This is a particularly good way to get strong tasting vegetables, which are particularly healthful, into children and adult males, who don't like vegetables other than potatoes, corn, and peas. If there's any resistance to salads, try vegetable sticks with dips. > > Bev Mittelman, BS, CNC > > Reply with your street or po box address > to get a sample copy of > The Holistic Dental Digest PLUS jmittelman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 2, 2003 Report Share Posted November 2, 2003 But doesn't juicing get rid of all the good fiber in the veggies? Wouldn't it be better to mix them all in a blender so you get all the benefits of the veggies including the fiber?
