Fruit Juices Good For You





Something to share….

Besides acquiring the correct way of eating fresh fruits, I have also enjoyed drinking fresh fruit juices. All we need to do is to buy a citrus juice press, a blender and a juicer. We can mix all types of fruit to suit our taste and our health purpose as illustrated. In fact, with such a huge variety of fruits available, there are hundreds and even thousands of combinations possible!

I use a citrus juice press to squeeze citrus fruit such as a glass of fresh orange, or lemon, or grapefruit juice for my breakfast. Of course we can also mix oranges lemon or lime with red grapefruit for our breakfast and this mixture of citrus juice helps to supply energy quickly in the mornings.

With a blender, I have been enjoying drinking freshly blended papaya juice mixed with low fat milk, juice of avocado + honey, and mango juice.

To get the taste of fresh apple juice, pineapple juice, watermelon juice, carrot juice, or a mixed fruit juice (my favourite is a mix of green apple, green pepper, English gourd, bitter gourd and celery), a centrifuge juicer is normally used. It takes me only about 10 minutes to clean up after juicing.

With one fruit drink a day, we are actually eating about 3 to 5 fruits to fulfill our daily nutritious requirement. It is, therefore, advisable to acquire the good habit of drinking fresh fruit juice instead of taking soft drinks and sweetened drinks.
