Since your body is not working hard to digest, the nutrients are absorbed immediately and this offers your body’s cells an opportunity to cleanse and rejuvenate.

I do recommend you use a good quality juicer, such as a Green Star or Omega/Huron. These juicers are very thorough giving you the most juice from fruits and vegetables with little pulp remaining. These juicers are able to juice wheat grass and green leafy vegetables as well as fruits and more solid vegetables. The Champion Juicer is better for straight fruit juices, such as orange juice, because it is not as thorough with the pulp and the juice is more drinkable. Please contact Janet if you are interested in one of these juicers as I am able to offer discount pricing.
