Juicing and Weight Loss


Juicing is an amazing way to lose weight and gain energy!
Knowing which vegetables to juice for optimal weight loss is essential.
The most effective vegetables that should be juiced when trying to lose weight are nutrient-dense vegetables. The top five nutrient-dense vegetables are bell peppers, parsley, kale, broccoli and spinach.
Bell peppers are one of the most nutrient-dense vegetables that you will find, also they are packed with vitamin C. One thing to remember when purchasing bell peppers is that organic is the way to go!
Red bell peppers have higher levels of nutrients compared to green bell peppers.
According to research, bell peppers contain substances that have been shown to prevent blood clot formation which reduces chances of heart attack and stroke.
