Healthy Juices

 

 

Our body enzymes require vitamins to carry out their work. These vitamins give us the energy which is required to digest food and convert food into body tissue. Fruits and vegetables are the best source of these important vitamins.

 

If these fruits and vegetables are eaten in liquid i.e. in form of juices, our body can easily absorb the vitamins as compared to having fruits and vegetables on the whole.

 

Let’s look at important things that should be kept in mind while preparing juices.

 

1. Always try and consume fresh fruits and vegetables.

 

2. Wash the fruit or vegetable thoroughly, and then cut it into pieces for making the juice.

 

3. Remove stem, seeds and skin before making the juices.
