There are many ways you can make the most out of some great juicer recipes. The important thing is that you use a healthy mix of different recipes that call for various fruits and vegetables to ensure you are feeding your body everything it needs and not just selectively consuming only certain ingredients or groups of ingredients. It might be hard at first to expand beyond the foods you are comfortable with but that really is what recipes are for. Because they call for a variety of different ingredients it is the helping hand when your creativity is limited by what you already know.
Be sure to only use the best fruits and vegetables in your juicer recipes since your juice can only be as good as the ingredients it is composed of. This means buying only organic fruits and vegetables that have been grown with the use of pesticides or chemical fertilizers. Juicing helps our body cleanse itself of the toxins we have accumulated over the years and we are doing our body no favors by putting those toxins back in by consuming foods that are contaminated.
Consuming only fresh juice is important as well. This means fresh in two ways. One, the ingredients must be as fresh as possible. This means the shortest amount of time as possible between harvesting and becoming part of your juice. Most supermarket produce have to travel far and statistically on average are weeks old by the time they get into your kitchen. Try a nearby farmers market where local farmers have harvested their produce much more recently and the fruits and vegetables did not have to travel as far to get into your kitchen. The other mention of freshness comes from the juice itself. Because the contents are highly oxidized by being liquefied, you want to drink you juice immediately after making it and do not consume anything that has been out for over an hour.
