However, when you put raw and vital foods into your body, you will feel alive and have more energy throughout the day. Perhaps that is why freshly made juices are so popular. When people drink fresh made juices, they say they feel better. A glass of freshly made juice is a perfect source of the vital enzymes and nutrients your body is craving. In addition, if you’re not a big fan of fruits and vegetables, juicing is a delicious way to get them into your body.

Juicing is also great for those who are overweight and are wanting to lose weight. A glass of fresh juice can help curb your appetite, so you don't feel hungry, because your body will be getting the nutrients it needs. You may ask yourself, "But, it's too much trouble to cut up fruits and vegetables and clean the juicer! Why not buy the juice from the store?"

Unless the local store you go to, makes the juice right in front of you, by law in most states in the USA, all juices must be pasteurized or flash pasteurized. Because of this, the juice has little or no enzymes, which are vital to proper nutritional intake. Almost all canned and bottled drinks contain either pasteurization, preservatives, added sugar, concentrates and/or artificial flavorings. Also, canned beverages often leak aluminum into the juice, which is then digested by the body.

So which juicer is best for me?

Juicers can range from $50 to $2,500, so the best juicer is the one that you can afford now and get you juicing daily to a healthier life. You can always upgrade and give your old juicer to a loved one, and encourage them to healthier living. See my website for more about how to select the "best juicer" for you on my website.

The following fresh juice drink is one of my favorites of all time. I have been drinking this healthy juice combination since 1979. It is a simple and affordable beverage that virtually anyone can make and it tastes wonderful. This recipe goes all the way back to the 1950s and was used by some the greatest doctors who pioneered natural healing: Dr. Max Gerson, Dr. Norman W. Walker, Dr. Paavo Airola, and Dr. Bernard Jenson.

8-10 Carrots, small to medium size

8-10 Stalks Celery (same amount as the carrots)

1/2 cup Parsley

1-2 Red or Green Apples (green apples have less sugar)

This makes about one, 16-20 ounce glass of juice.

Drink this once or twice a day and watch how your energy goes way up.

A few things to note:

-To get the most digestive enzymes and nutrition, it is always best to consume your juice fresh, or within 20 minutes of making it.

-A juicing machine extracts the juice from whole fruits or vegetables and also removes the pulp, which contains fiber. Adding some of the leftover pulp back into the juice is an excellent way for those who want or need more fiber in their diet.

-Organic fruit is always best. If you can only get commercial produce, it is not a problem - just remember to wash everything well and peel carrots and apples as they are sprayed with many pesticides.
