Juicing Recipes for Busy People

 

 

One of the huge ironies of modern life is: that you can have a harried schedule and frantic mind, while at the same time leading a sedentary lifestyle. It seems like that shouldn’t even be possible, and yet it is a reality of daily life for many of us. Green juicing is a great way for busy people to do something extremely healthy for themselves.

Best Green Juices for a Healthy Long Life

Just because you’re stressed-out, doesn’t mean that you’re active (moving, strengthening, and stretching your body). Driving and desk-sitting seem active because the mind is active, yet they can be, in reality, sedentary — and real downers for the human physique.

“…productive, on-the-go people sometimes
find it even more difficult
to eat nutritious, fresh foods”

The busier you are, the more important it is to do something very healthy for your body every day. And do I have a helpful solution for you: freshly prepared green juice!

First, you must know these essential tips:

• ◕ super salads and green smoothies are even better for you than juices (they contain the entire plant including all of the fiber), so please always choose those options instead when time allows

 

• ◕ green vegetables are a better juice ingredient than fruits, in part because they have less sugar

 

• ◕ whether making a freshly blended smoothie or fresh juice, beginners are encouraged to use more fruits than vegetables in order to gradually evolve the palate to enjoy less sweet tastes; however, the ultimate goal — even if it takes a long while — should be to reduce sugars in the average daily diet (refined sugars first and then, later, naturally occurring sugars), which means over time using more vegetables and only a little fruit!

Green Juice Recipes

I’m sharing with you two of my favorite green juice recipes for vibrant, high-energy health:

#1: Green Juicing Recipe for Beginners

If you’re just starting out with organic green juice, whether using your own juicer at home or swinging by your local juice bar, you’ll want something that tastes clean, simple, and a little sweet:

 
…the perfect green juice for beginners because it has more fruit than vegetables and the flavor is not overly complex.

#2: Green Juicing Recipe to Improve Metabolism

Once you get used to the beginning-level green juice recipe and have been trying that for a while, you’ll be ready to upgrade to the advanced recipe! My personal opinion is that, generally, the more green vegetables you consume, the healthier you become, and the healthier you become, the better your body regulates its own metabolic process. This recipe might help you take your health to the next level!

 
I’m drinking some right now, and it’s as fresh as it gets!
 

Local Juicing

Hopefully, you live in a neighborhood or town that has a health food store or local “juice bar.” I have a couple near where I live, and I frequent them often — popping-in, on my way to-or-from a meeting, errand or workout. If you’re lucky, the fellas behind the counter will even make you laugh!

 
 
Today, I stopped by Nature’s Health Cafe in Palm Springs, California (next time you’re vacationing here, you can find it near the southwest corner of Sunrise and Ramon).

As always, before you undertake any radical change to your daily diet, it can be a good idea to consult with your nutritionist and also your doctor.

Again, I prefer green smoothies more than green juice. But green smoothies are like entire meals, and sometimes when I’m out and about, I just need a pick-me-up, and that’s where green juice comes in…

Like when I’ve just run a bunch of errands, am on my way to the gym, and need a serious pick-me-up. ZING! Green juice has me feeling fantastic almost immediately!
