When you juice you are removing the insoluble fiber - the pulp. Don’t get me wrong. Fiber is good for you. It keeps your digestive tract healthy and it slows down the absorption of sugar. But it also slows down the absorption of nutrients and some nutrients stay in the fiber. When you juice, you are extracting up to 70% of the nutrition right into your glass [1], and without the insoluble fiber your body absorbs 100% of these nutrients.

Ingredients

  • “The blender did not cause any loss of enzymatic activity,” he said after comparing the two. “In fact, there was a slight increase in enzymatic activity in the blender. This may be due to the blender releasing more enzymes from inside of the cells because it chops vegetable cells much finer than can be accomplished by the grinding action of a juicer.”

Directions

  1. Sipping on nutrition packed juices and smoothies throughout the day is a great way to increase fruit and veggie intake as well as provide a steady fuel supply to your body. As more people are experimenting new recipes and making their own veggie juices and smoothies, it brings up the question, “Which is better? Juicing vs Blending?” Both juicing and blending are very beneficial in different ways. Here is a quick comparison to help you determine which is right for you.
