Freshly pressed fruit and veggie juices are the corner stone of my daily diet. I recommend it to everyone and the majority of people who implement it in their daily lives love the cleansing and replenishing effects of fresh juices.

Some researchers believe that antioxidant chemicals known as polyphenols, found in high concentration in the skin and peel of fruits and veggies, help eliminate harmful free radicals in the body. This can lower the risk of cancer, cardiovascular disease, and Alzheimer's.

Fresh juices are highly alkalizing, easy to digest and absorb, even for those who have difficulties eating raw. They have a high content of minerals, vitamins, enzymes, antioxidants, and help the body to detox and rebuild.

It is likely the synchronistic action of all components of the whole fruit and vegetables that makes fresh juicing such a health powerhouse and youth fountain.

I drink 2-3 glasses of juice every day, sometimes more. The Gerson Diet for healing cancer recommends 13 glasses! daily.

The most important step is that you start juicing. Find a juicer that's easy to clean. Ideally, the juice should be pulp free.

Then develop a routine. Have your juice first thing in the morning, or half an hour before mealtime. Make it a habit and stick to it. You will feel and see the benefits.
