RE: Question about juicing and sugars

[Guest guest]

Hi Debbie,

 

Welcome to the group. Your question is a good one - I have heard this

argument before.

 

The answer is that if you drink pure, freshly juiced, Organic fruit and

vegetable juices that are diluted half way with pure water, you should be

just fine. The problem comes in when juices are pasturized, frozen, and

sugars are added. Natural fruit and vegetable juices have amazingly healthy

properties and though fruit juices do have a lot of sugars, it is OK to have

some each day. I juice 2 apples every day and have it in the morning,

diluted with water and I add some of Doc Shillington's " Total Nutrition "

formula which has all the vitamins & minerals you need for an entire day.

 

Veggie juice is better if you have a problem with sugars - it is incredibly

healing and cleansing and you will NOT gain weight by drinking this.

 

I personally have a problem with any " diet " that pushes people away from

fruits and vegetables. This is where we get vital nutrients like calcium,

magnesium, potassium, Vitamin C, and others. You get fiber from eating the

whole fruit or vegetable raw, so doing this is also very healthy.

 

My suggestion is to only do raw, organic, fresh juices instead of any

sweetened or bottled juices. You will do great on these and they make you

feel awesome and energized! I do my whole exercise regimine after drinking

this juice.

 

ML,

 

Lane

Herbal Remedies - Question about juicing and sugars

 

 

 

 

 

I would like to ask a question about juicing in regards to sugars.

When I did Atkins long ago... there was a topic of juicing and I had

thought this would be the best way for me to get veggies in my

diet... well.... never went any further with it.. but the discussion

was that when juicing it concentrates the sugars of the fruits... or

veggies.. and since one is supposed to stay away from sugars...

especially if sugar sensative... that juicing was not the way to

go...

 

but something inside me disagreed with this.. but I had put it on the

back burner til now... Please educate me... what is your view

regarding this subject?

 

Thank you for your time ...

Dr. Christopher taught that if you thoroughly " chew " your juice, the

concentrated sugars are not a problem as they are digested by the saliva.

Juices are a good way to concentrate vitamins and minerals
