Sometimes it is difficult to keep up on your health while meeting life's demands. Other times you are doing all you can to be healthy, but your body is still struggling. Well, although it is important to get the fiber from your fruits and vegetables and allow for your body to properly digest these foods, it is also difficult at times for your body to properly do so.

This is where juicing recipes have come in to play for me and may be equally beneficial for you. There is controversy over juicing to some degree. However, absorption of vitamins and minerals are allowed to easily take place by the body through drinking a healthy juice.

Incorporating these juicing recipes into your lifestyle are a great way for a body to give the digestion system a rest but still get appropriate nutrients for your body to thrive.  These ingredients below also provide the body with detoxing and energizing power.

I have literally been able to feel my hurting neck feel instant relief from a simple juice.  I believe that juicing is worth a try if your body is in need of flushing out toxins and taking in more nutrients.

Juicing Cucumbers

Cucumbers are a wonderful refreshing vegetable to add to juicing recipes, salads, waters, face masks, sunburn spritzers and more. They are versatile and don't have a strong, overpowering taste which make them great to add to so many types of juices.

• They are Also high in vitamin A
• According to the book The Ultimate book of Modern Juicing by Mimi Kirk, cucumber juice contains 86-100 IUs of vitamin A per one cup serving.  
• They also contain calcium. Calcium is beneficial for bone health.
• Hydrating the body- Cucumbers are high in water content making them extremely hydrating.  
  • Hydration helps with detoxing of the body by flushing out all the toxins.

Juicing Celery

• Celery is another vegetable which will give you a good amount of juice content when juiced.  
• It helps with lowering blood pressure and cholesterol levels.
• Celery contains many vitamins and minerals including vitamins A and K. Vitamin K is important in the absorption of vitamin D which is highly beneficial for detoxing.  
  • Vitamin k is also essential for bone health.  
• Potassium is another benefit of celery which supports strong bones.
• It also contains choline, magnesium and iron.  
  • Choline is important for the memory and balancing your mood. 
  • Iron is problematic for some people, I know it has been an issue certainly for us. Low iron can effect the ability to focus on task completion and cause shortness of breath.  
  • Magnesium is a hot topic. It is important for absorption of other vitamins, aids in the balance of anxiety and depression and effects sleeps.
  • Magnesium is also important in protein synthesis and blood sugar regulation and is a cofactor in over 300 enzymatic reactions in the body. The list can go on. Anyone looking for a great magnesium supplement can find one here.

Dandelion Greens for Juicing

• Dandelions are great for detoxing. They are a low-histamine vegetable so there amine content for trigger histamine release should be a safer choice.
• Dandelions are great for supporting liver function, hence the detoxing power.
• They are great sources of vitamins A and K, which we already discussed the benefits of.
• These greens also contain vitamins C and E which also play important roles in detoxing the body.

Parsley is a wonderful way to get nutrition for the body. It is usually less expensive and a powerhouse in aiding the health of the body.

• It also has antimicrobial properties.
• Parsley contains flavonoids that prevent oxidative stress.
• This herb is useful in preventing diseases due to its vitamins A, K, and C content. It is also high in chlorophyll which may aid in toxin removal of the liver and odor issues such as bad breath.

• Beets are rich in phytochemicals.

• Arugula is high in antioxidants.

• This vegetable has a peppery bite to it, so keep that in mind when juicing.

Juicing Green Apples (or Red)

Apples are a great fruit to add to a juice to sweeten the flavor.  Some apples contain more sugar than others, so be cautious of this when adding them to a juice.

• Sugars from apples are delivered into the bloodstream at a slow rate which stabilizes insulin levels.
• Apples help in removing heavy metals from the body.
• Apples contain phytochemicals such as quercetin, which has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant, antihistamine and antiviral effects on the body.
• Green apples have less sugar, so this is the one I use most often when juicing.
  • These apples also have a higher content of vitamin A as well.  

Juicing Lemons

Lemons are fantastic for juicing. You are able to juice both the flesh and the rinds. The use of rinds will produce a deeper tart and on the bitter side taste. Depending on your like of tartness, you will want to balance your juice accordingly with lemon.

• Lemons are antiviral, so they are a great defender of the immune system.
• They are high in vitamin C, magnesium and bioflavonoids which are all disease fighting.
• We drink (well, not my husband and son), lukewarm lemon water in the mornings to flush out toxins that have built up in the night. It is a simple way to keep your body healthy.
• Lemons are definitely worth considering to add to your routine.

Omega J8006 Juicer

This is mid-range in price.  I have a similar juicer to this.  It has lasted me years and works wonderfully.  It gives me a lot of juice out of the fruits and vegetables.

I do need to do some chopping, but I have found that I am able to put whole vegetables in as long as I guide them through slowly.  This juicer is a favorite of mine!

Nama Cold Press Juicer Vitality

This juicer is more expensive in price.  I know someone that has this juicer and loves it.  There is a high juice yield with this machine.  That is important when you are buying organic vegetables and fruit because they can be pricey.  Also, it is your time that you are taking to juice for your health, so might as well get the most from it.

The upfront cost is expensive, but the machine is built to last.  This is a good choice for an avid juicer.  Don't purchase until you know that you will be juicing often.  Otherwise, stick with one of the other choices.

Breville Juice Fountain Plus

This juicer is more affordable in comparison to the other 2 juicers.  I have not tried this juicer, but according to reviews and recommendations, this is a great juicer for the price.

Nutribullet

This juicer is the lowest in price, however, and someone just beginning, it is a great option. It is affordable as far as a juicer is concerned and has 4 star reviews.
