loss weight Or healthy- why not both

Why veggies one of many good combos.
Almost everyone I coach on the phone or online asks me about going on a fruit juice diet. They’re eager to know the shortest route between them and their weight loss goals, and they've heard about the dramatic results that juice fasting can provide.I say think health first that is just an awesome side effect.If you weight is off then something is off in your diet and in your body. Most times a fast, juice fast can fix it. I'm no Doctor but,,Year after year of results convinces me that juice fasting is by far the most beneficial thing anyone can do to supercharge their health , well being and miracles if deadly illnesses cured just wow me every time it, never gets old. Not to mention it’s the absolute fastest road to weight loss and the body of your dreams. But fasting on fruit alone or embarking upon and all fruit juice diet may prove to be a bit problematic. Read on.
The truth of the matter is that, while the natural health benefits that are significant, fruit contains a large amount of natural sugar and, unlike vegetables, is best eaten with fibers intact. The reason why a juice fast is so powerful is simply because when you juice a vegetable or a fruit you will have removed the bulk, or fiber, and from the area that provides nutrition – the juice. You then simply consume the nutritive part of the plant, the part that contains the nutrients your body needs, and allows you to receive all of this without spending all the energy that is necessary to break down the food on it’s own. This energy will be freed for your body to begin cleansing. It is similar to little brushes scrubbing away at your cells and removing the fat from your system.
Instead of a fruit juice diet, you are advised to take in huge variety of different coloured fresh fruits. This will ensure that all of your necessary nutrition requirements are being taken care of, leaving you with plenty of energy. Fruits such as apples can potentially provide a great base for a number of juices, but if consumed alone they spike the blood sugar level which will then drop shortly after and leave you with less energy than what you had before. It is obvious to say that this isn't the effect that we are looking for with a juice fast.
If you want to juice fruit, that’s fine, just make sure to add greens like kale, spinach or watercress as greens help the sugars absorb into your system slowly preventing those unwanted spikes in blood sugar and energy fluctuation.
Consider the following recipe that I offer in the breakthrough fasting guide I created at www.breakthroughfasting.com
Kate’s Green Dragon
1-2 green apple (or any variety)
Two stalks of celery
1/2 cucumber
Three handfuls of spinach or, if you would prefer, two handfuls of kale
1/2-1 lemon to taste (I like mine sour)
No matter what you’re juicing, it is important that you combine different vegetables into the mix, especially green vegetables. This will prevent those spikes in blood sugar and will help to maintain a stable energy level to support your body undergo powerful cleanse. You will be flooding your body with the necessary nutrition it will need to get a good and clean, helping you become radiantly healthy, and achieving what I like to call “thin from within”.

washing vegetables and fruit

I guess you can use the veggie wash I never have check whats in it. Many people make their own with vinegar and a water mix. I use organic and wash very quickly in hot water to kill parasites. Then real cool to cool off maybe even set there for a min. One more thing people are tossing things away because they are wilted people  please. After you use what you are going to you put it back in the frig. Then the next day or the day after that when ever, it seems to be limp a little. take a bowl or your clean sink and run some slightly warm water even temp water. Baby baby I call it. and put it in for a few min. It will drank the water it still alive just hasn't been watered. Now take it out and lets it set damp for a few min. see it perk back up wowow. Then when it looks happy again shake off the water, pat dry a little, put it in the frig. be sure to do this before it shriveled remember starting to look limp.Some thing will give you more juice with help WATER. I wash and put my roots( ginger) and at work wheat grass, parsley what ever in temp water the more water it drinks the more juice it gives me. One lady said it all water. I laugh it a living thing with cells as the water leaves the cell so does you ability to juice the goodness. Think of how you dehydrate things and rehydrate things. You need the water in the cells so you can extract to goodness. Hydrate all that you can. maybe a sink of temp water and your ready to go veggie while you set up your juicer and get your glasses and jars out and your days what ever you take your stuff in to keep it cold.Then dump the water and put it in the coldest water you can while you are juicing. I like the first juice to be a little cool and since we are trying to drank that first one in side of 17 min. no time to refrigerate. After that my bottles go into my little personal cooler and off I go to work. Chillin on ice yummy.
