Green juices are the rock stars of the health world. They condense several servings of fruits, vegetables and other superfoods into a single, easy-to-consume drink.
Because there is so much in one drink, green juices are incredibly nutritious and have an impressive list of health benefits. More about that in this article!
Energy for the whole day
When you're tired, what's the first thing you reach for? Coffee? An energy drink? While some caffeinated drinks like tea and coffee in moderation are perfectly healthy, they're not a cure for the real reason you're tired. An estimated 9 out of 10 people are deficient in important vitamins and minerals. When your body is out of nutrients, it just doesn't work the way it should, leaving you feeling fatigued. A green juice is the perfect remedy as it provides an almost instant boost in energy.
Better gut health
Your gut is the foundation of health. It can even be the difference between being depressed and happy. It affects almost every aspect of your health. That's why it's critical to take steps to make sure your gut is healthy, and drinking a green juice supports gut health. That's because these drinks contain digestive enzymes and prebiotics. In addition, some higher quality green juices even contain probiotics. These are good bacteria that are known to support gut health. All these substances can drastically improve the health of your gut.
May delay aging
If you don't eat a wide variety of vegetables, fruits, and herbs, you're missing out on an important part of wellness:antioxidants. Antioxidants protect your body from oxidative damage, which contributes to physical aging. Studies have linked oxidative damage to the development of cancer, diabetes, heart disease and more. And the best source of antioxidants can be found in fruits and vegetables. In fact, an analysis of 95 studies by scientists at Imperial College London showed remarkable protection against a range of diseases when consuming 10 servings of fruits and vegetables daily. This protective benefit came only from plants. Green juices give you multiple servings of nutritious superfoods to boost your antioxidant intake.
