Juicing is a NATURAL way to receive NATURE'S Medicine!

Juicing can prevent & alleviate many health conditions, including REVERSING serious illnesses, such as Cancer! (~I personally met someone who reversed her stage 3 Cancer by changing her eating habits & incorporating a healthy, lifestyle.)
There are many Documentaries (which can be found via Netflix) that confirm that 'Power of Eating RAW Food'. (Click here for an awesome list of 'Food for Health' documentaries, which include my favorites: Forks Over Knives, The Gerson Miracle, & Food Matters.)
Where to Begin:
When purchasing a Juicer, try to find one that will keep the fiber intact (such as a Vitamix, Ninja, or the Nutribullet. (~A typical 'Juicer' extracts the fiber, which can causes your blood sugar levels to rise.)
Making (preferably 'organic') Juice is an easy way to receive a variety of nutrients, vitamins, & minerals, including beneficial enzymes, antioxidants, & fiber. Many people all over the world choose to incorporate a glass or two of fresh vegetable / fruit juice into their daily diet.
By using organically grown produce you'll receive a greater nutritional density. Also, avoid pesticides and genetically modified produce (GMO = usually starts with the #8). Wash your produce thoroughly with a 'vegetable wash' or make your own by filling a spray bottle with 2 tbsp. Lemon Juice + 2 tbsp Vinegar +Water)
Peel Citrus Fruits (Oranges, Grapefruit, etc.), as they contain a toxic substance and taste bitter. Leave some of the thick white inside part of the peel, since it is rich in bioflavonoids & vitamin C. Also, *Always peel imported tropical fruits since they are usually sprayed with chemicals & remember to peel any fruits or veggies that have been waxed.
Remove pits (Cherries, Avocados, Peaches, etc.) before juicing.. ~Seeds can be juiced, except for apple seeds (which can be toxic).
*** Organic Baby Spinach can be added to almost any Juice drink to add additional Health Benefits. (*Note that Organic Baby Spinach has an extremely mild taste, which makes it undetectable in most Juice Drinks.) ****
Drink your juice as quickly as possible, as fresh juice tends to oxidize which causes the levels of nutrients to decline. Therefore, the fresher the juice - the more nutrients it will have.
