Fruit and vegetable juices: an elixir of taste and health

Fruit and vegetable juices allow you to have drinks on hand that are good for the body and are the best and tastiest way to tackle a break or snack.

Fruit and vegetables, as we all know, are very good for you. A few portions a day should be part of the diet of those who want to lose weight and eliminate toxins. Because fresh fruit and vegetables  let you experiment with flavours, colours, and scents while mixing and matching different fruits, they’re a great way to achieve these objectives and make everything look and feel much more enticing. The pulp is clearly separated from the juice and is not mashed and sieved like it is with extracts.

Of course, the combination of different nutritional principles must not be overlooked. Fruit juices make it possible to consume a lot of essential nutrients, like vitamin C, which is necessary for the immune system to function well and for controlling oxidative processes. Everything gets much more spectacular when you take into account how easy it was to prepare! To obtain valid results, however, it is necessary to choose the juicer carefully. Let’s delve into this important aspect together.

How to choose the best fruit juicer

How are juices made? You need the right juicer for flawless juices. How to choose it? The material is the first thing to think about because it needs to be resistant to corrosive substances and time. Stainless steel is ideal for this purpose, known for its excellent performance and ease of cleaning.

The motor needs to be mentioned as well; if at all possible, it should be quite powerful. One thing to keep in mind when making a purchase is that the base uses suction cups rather than the classic base. This seemingly insignificant information turns out to be crucial. Why? For the simple fact that the suction cups help to dampen the vibrations resulting from the centrifugal force, solving, at least in part, the problem of excessive noise.

As already mentioned, with an excellent juicer, you are already halfway there. The ideal time to consume the prepared juice is still unknown. Here are some simple tips on this matter.

When is the ideal time to consume fruit juice?

Having a high-quality juice is beneficial throughout the day. Nonetheless, there are situations where selecting these options is especially sensible. We are talking about snacks between meals. In this way, you avoid consuming too much sugar and fat, and you do not give up energy. To understand this, just think that a good glass of fruit and vegetable juice also provides 100 calories, the equivalent of a piece of white bread. I personally prepare many fruit and vegetable juices for breakfast!

The advantage is that it contains many more nutrients, and you can have fun! The combinations, in fact, are endless. You can focus only on fruit or also include some vegetables. An example? The fennel and apple juice are excellent natural purifiers! There are many detox juices, but you can also create thirst-quenching and detoxifying drinks. Summer or winter juice? We have them for every season of the year.

To find the best combination, you need to focus on your needs. For those who play sports, for example, juices are excellent because they contain a good amount of mineral salts, substances that need to be replenished after physical activity. A useful tip for this? A good orange and cucumber juice! Those who want to add some vitamins can opt for an apple, carrot, and celery juice.

To optimise the benefits of juices, it is best to consume them as soon as they are ready. Storing them for too long is not advisable at all, as it alters the properties of the ingredients!

There’s no denying that juices can satisfy even the most diversified requirements. For athletes who seek to enhance their cognitive performance and replenish their mineral salt supply, juices come in handy. A juice composed of apples, carrots, berries, and plums is great in these circumstances.

Vitamin C is necessary to boost immunity and get ready for the winter. You can do this with carrot, orange, and ginger juice. There are a tonne of recipes available, and you should try them all!
