Health Benefits
There are numerous health reasons for making fresh juice a part of your daily routine; to name a few:
ENZYMES: These are essential molecules that act as catalysts in your body;they drive the digestive process and allow nutrients to be absorbed. Otherwise, juice that is store bought is considered "dead" and not "alive" with enzymatic activity.
ALKALINITY: This refers to the ph of the bloodstream; alkalinizing the blood is particularly important in maintaining optimal health. By adding hydroxyl ions to the blood and reducing the Hydrogen (acid) ions, viruses, bacteria and other pathogens and allergens have a much tougher time gaining a foothold on your immune system.
PHYTOCHEMICALS: These are the plant pheromones and immune system; they are produced on healthy, organic plants only. This is because when an insecticide/herbicide is sprayed on a plant (or if it is a GMO crop), the plant stops producing its own immune response and therefore is not able to confer any of these vital, health giving properties to us. A good example of a phytochemical that is very popular for inflammation and controlling cancer is curcumin.
NUTRIENT PACKED: Aside from immune system helpers like phytochemicals; fresh juices are packed with Vitamins C, Carotenoids, and several trace minerals.
DETOXIFICATION: All of the above reasons help the body detoxify waste products, stimulate kidneys, help the liver to detoxify chemicals and hormones and other metabolic waste products.
