Should You Juice or Blend to be Healthy
Personally I prefer to blend my fruits and vegetables instead of juicing them. I do this for a definite purpose.
When you juice you are extracting the water and nutrients from produce and trying to discard the fiber. Without the fiber your digestive system doesn't have to work as hard to break down the food and can almost instantly absorb nutrients. It can make the nutrients quickly available to your body and in much larger quantities than if you were just eat those all of those fruits and vegetables.
Is also the reason and I not use a juicer. When you are juicing fruits, the juice that is made can release the sugar into your body at a extremely rapid raise. This is because of the fiber has been removed from the fruit and vegetables. If you were only juicing fruit this can cause a huge spike in your blood sugar level which can be most unhealthy for your body. High blood sugar levels can cause diabetes, mood swings and other physical ailments,
When you use the blender you are also getting all of the fiber and skin from the fruits and vegetables you blend. By blending you are able to break the fiber apart from the food fruit or vegetables, which helps create a slow even release of the nutrients into your body and bloodstream, and avoids the blood sugar spikes that can result from using a juicer and juicing fruits. Also by blending fruits and vegetables it makes them easier to digest since the blender has broke the fiber apart. Plus I have found making a smoothie in my blender is much more filling than just drinking juice from a juicer.
Dr. Herbert Shelton states in his books is best not to combine certain fruits and vegetables so do not combine vegetables like carrots, broccoli, zucchini for they have high starch content. And starches are digested with enzymes different from those used for any other food groups. If you combine these vegetables with fruit it can it can cause gas and other symptoms. What he did fine is that you can combine green leafy vegetables with pretty much anything you want, that is what I combine them with spinach and kale.

The last part is make sure you try to drink but you made in the first 15 or 20 minutes after you've created it. Both the air and light will destroy many of the nutrients the longer it sits out after you have made it. So after you have made your smoothie or juice sitdown, relax, and drink it also do not make too much and then try to store it. Try too make just enough for you to use in one session
