Fresh or packaged juice?
In the summer months, all of us guzzle juices. Which is better? Freshly-extracted or packaged juice?
“Fresh juice, extracted from fruits and vegetables and consumed immediately, is loaded with live enzymes, chlorophyll and organic water, which very quickly delivers deep hydration and oxygen to the cells and bloodstream. On the contrary, bottled juices have lost most of their life-giving enzymes; the nutritional properties of the fruits have been largely compromised, not to forget added colour and refined sugars that are unhealthy. Vegetable juices from veggies and leafy greens are a safer because they do not have fruit sugars.”
While some packaged juices come without sugar, Dr. Bhuvaneshwari prescribes, “Fresh fruit instead of packaged juices, since packaged juices are without fibre. If one feels like a drink, then pulpy juices are preferable to strained juices
