Re: Fruit Vegetable Juice Smoothies for your health.
Please be sure to check with your oncologist before changing your diet - especially if you are in treatment.
Juice or smoothies???
Both juicers and blenders are fantastic for different reasons.
When you juice, you drink the liquid nutrients of fruits/vegetables, since the pulp/fiber is left behind it's lighter and less filling than a smoothie. Since juices are cleansing/detoxing, your digestive system gets a break because there are no solids to break down.
Smoothies leave nothing behind – you drink the whole food. Smoothies are more filling than juices, but not as filling as normal meals. While smoothies are easier on your digestion than solid foods, they are not quite as cleansing/detoxing as juices.
If you really feel your digestion needs a cleansing and you want to lots of nutrients, go with a juicer.
If you’re looking to incorporate all of the nutrients and fiber, go with a blender for smoothies.
