If you're serious about juicing, you should dedicate a cool, dark area of your house to storing produce which can be kept long-term. For example, apples can be kept in the garage over the winter as long as they're not allowed to freeze. Just wash them, get rid of any bad ones, and store them in a covered but breathable container.
To keep the pulp out of your juice, put a coffee filter over the container you're juicing into to catch it all. Then a fun suggestion that is also nutritious is to save the pulp and put it into ice cube trays. Then on those hot summer days, those ice cubes are perfect nutritious little popsicle treats!
When juicing for weight loss, it is important to eat the pulp, too. You can mix it with non-fat yogurt, or actually pour it into your glass of juice. Some people like to grab a spoon and eat it out of a bowl, sometimes sprinkling on a little cinnamon to add a diabetes-beating punch!
When it comes to juicing, one thing that you want to keep in mind is that you want to make sure that your refrigerator will be able to hold all of your fruits and vegetables that you need. This is important because you will need a lot of space, keeping your ingredients in room temperature may cause them to spoil quicker.
Drink in the morning. Juices are wonderful beverage choices at any time of day, but to take full advantage of their health benefits you cannot beat a glass of juice first thing in the morning. When you first get up in the morning, your stomach is completely empty, and you can be sure that there will be nothing competing with the juice as your body absorbs it.
When you first begin juicing, be sure that you start out with vegetables that you already enjoy. Juicing is something that takes some getting used to, and by using vegetables that you do not like in the beginning, you may be turned off from doing it ever again. Your taste buds will adjust, eventually.
If you'd like to add protein supplements to your juice, wait a few days before you start. Your system will be getting used to the juice (which is easy as it's half-way digested by the time it gets to your stomach!) and flushing out toxins, so give it a chance to catch up first.
Before juicing, find out what items you need to peel and what you can leave whole. Citrus fruits generally need to have the peel removed before juicing. Be careful however when peeling, the white area immediately underneath the peel is fine to juice and it is where MOST of the nutrients are.
Now that you know a little bit about juicing, you are on your way to a wild and exciting adventure of taste, nutrition and energy. You will see the difference in how you feel, almost immediately. Just use the information you read here to get started today.
