Benefits of Juicing and Smoothies

Posted: March 22, 2013

I attended a seminar this past Tuesday about the Benefits of Juicing and Smoothies. The seminar was very informative AND I got to try a few recipes. I only had 3 shots and felt AMAZING afterwards. Below I broke down what I learned and listed a few recipes to try…ENJOY!

*Juicing and blending fruits and vegetables (smoothies) provide your body with antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, live enzymes, phytonutrients, and amino acids (protein) for maximum health.
*Blending and juicing breaks through the cell walls, releasing more flavor and making the bounty of nutrients more readily available for your body.
