The Miraculous Juice!

Hi all!

Today I am going to share something, which almost all of us are advised to do, but we hardly pay attention to: Having vegetables.
I am not a vegetable person. I loathe having them, and if there's are only vegetables cooked on a particular day in my house then I prefer eating out instead.

Now the problem is because of this attitude of mine, I am literally going through a lot of trouble including lower back pain, pain during menstrual cycle (which is unbearable), joint pains and because of the junk I eat, a lot of weight gain.

Whenever I go and see any doctor , be it a general physician or a gynecologist they immediately prescribe me with supplements and that too for long periods of time. Me being me, get tired of having them within a week. And my problem remains.
I have always been told (by mum dearest) that all this is due to me being stubborn about not having vegetables. Which is actually true! I now have realised that I really need to incorporate them in my life before its too late. But obviously I am not going to have them cooked so I have decided to have them in the form of juice instead.

I know it sounds dreadful to have vegetable juice. Many people like me would obviously avoid it. But after a bit of research and self-enlightenment, I have now decided to detox my body and get rid of all.the problems the natural way.

How I make vegetable juice

Ingredients:
1 bunch of spinach leaves
1 medium sized beetroot
2 medium sized carrots
2 medium sized cucumbers

Juice of 1 lemon
A handful of mint

Method:

Juice all of the vegetables one after another in a bowl and mix them together with a PLASTIC spoon.
Squeeze out juice of half a lemon in a tall glass and add the juice.
Simple and delicious.

The mint and lemon add a zing and freshness to the drink as well as improve the taste.
No need to add sugar as carrots and beetroot contains natural sugar.
Many add jaljeera powder to their drink but I prefer having without it. It's good to be all natural.

Benefits:

• There are obviously a lot of benefits from different vegetables used in making the juice which includes Vitamins A, B, E and K along with potassium, magnesium as well as other minerals but lets skip the boring parts and come straight to the point of why you would love having this juice.

Good for your Skin

•  Firstly spinach and beetroot are awesome for your skin. Betroot supposedly removes dead skin cells and replaces them with new ones which helps in achieving that fair and glowing skin everyone craves for.
• Both spinach and beetroot are good for blood circulation meaning they are really good for you if you have problems related to acne. It purifies your blood from within and helps in keeping acne at bay.
• The puffiness and under eye dark circles are visibly reduced.
• Carrots have anti ageing properties which helps in improving skin elasticity. It also combats skin dryness.

Good for your Hair

• Spinach is real good for your hair. It helps in hair growth and add that shine and luster to your hair.
• Beetroot combats that oily scalp which almost everyone dreads as well as reduces dandruff. It also reduces itchiness of the scalp and also improves the quality of your hair
  

For overall Health

• All the vegetables mentioned here are a great way to detox your body and purify blood. Which helps in reducing menstrual pains to a great extent.
• It's great for your heart because the carrots present in it are known for curbing blood cholesterol. It is also good for pregnant and lactating women as spinach and beetroot are known for improving the development the fetus as well as quality of milk in breastfeeding mothers.
• Carrots are good source of calcium which are good for your nails and teeth.
• And how can we forget weight loss. It is said having 1 beetroot is equal to having done 30 minutes of exercise.
• The juice helps in cleaning up your intestines in order to remove useless fats and helps in weight loss. If you are trying to lose weight, do have this at least once a day along with good and balanced diet.

Pressed juices

Cold pressed juices are all the rage right now. Companies have devised plans for the customer where the only thing to consume are juices the entire day.

There daily and weekly biweekly and monthly cleansing plans offered by different brands.

Although it is good initiative and many people are also benefiting from it. I believe that natural way is a better way to detox the body. Plus it is not too heavy on the pocket.

Things to remember 

1. While making this juice make sure you use containers which are either plastic or glass. DO NOT use metal or steel containers.

2. Consume Immediately after extracting the juice. DO NOT refrigerate or consume after long period of time.

3. Make sure to exercise and adopt a healthy lifestyle. Don't be too lazy.
