A great way to help your body absorb nutrients from fruit and vegetables is to juice some of them. We should still eat whole vegetables in our diets for the fibre content, but juicing fruit and vegetables helps our bodies to absorb the vitamins and minerals from the liquid.
A good fruit juicer is an important place to start and these can be picked up for around $100 to $200 from any department store. Look for one which is easy to clean because this will be your biggest challenge in your juicing future.
Healthy Tip
If you are like me you hate throwing out any food which can otherwise be used. The fibre left after juicing fruit and vegetables makes a great addition to stews and casseroles. In particular apple, carrot and celery juice fibre with pork chops or ribs in a slow cooker is delicious.
