The 4 Benefits of Drinking Your Veggies

MARCH IS “VEGGIE MONTH”


March is National ‘Veggie Month’ and here at Living Juice we are excited to share our love of veggies! During this time we celebrate all there is to love about vegetables and your health. As spring approaches you will begin to notice new vegetables popping up in your local grocery stores. Artichokes, beets, carrots, kale, spinach, and more are seasonal across the country during early and late March. 


Celebrating all the benefits of these colorful and delicious vegetables is encouraged here at Living Juice, however, we know that vegetables are not the most beloved food group. In fact, only 10% of Americans consume their recommended intake of vegetables and at Living Juice we want to encourage our community to have the best possible daily intake of vegetables with the help of our beautiful and refreshing cold-pressed juices.

WHAT ARE COLD PRESSED JUICES?

Don’t love vegetables, but want to know how you can celebrate Veggie Month and give love to your body this year? Cold-pressed juices are a great first step on your journey to veggie-lovin’!


Cold-pressed juices are made using a hydraulic press and zero added ingredients. Whereas traditional juices are made using a blade and strainer that causes excess heat and friction, taking away from the veggies original nutrients. They often even combine fruits and vegetables for a splash of new flavor. That fresh and vibrant look you get from veggies is something that should also be present in its taste. Cold-pressed juices aim to do just that. 


There are four essential benefits to drinking your veggies in the form of cold-pressed juices. Explore the benefits and our very own juices below. 


BENEFIT #1 - AN EASY EASE

Most people turn away from vegetables due to mushy or strange textures, improper preparation of the vegetable, or a sensitive palate to bitter tastes. If you fall under the 25% of people who experience unwanted bitterness from vegetables, try a different form of preparation and ease into vegetables with cold-pressed juices. It takes much longer to eat vegetables on your dinner plate than to drink them on your commute to work. 


When you try cold-pressed juices, you get the beautiful flavors and colors without any unwanted textures that may be discouraging you in the first place. Juices are easy to approach and easy to digest. Plus, you can mix more than one vegetable together and get the benefits of all without having to place multiple on your fork at different times. There are more than four servings of fruits and vegetables in every Living Juice bottle!

BENEFIT #2 - IMPROVE IMMUNE AND BRAIN HEALTH

Outside of consuming cold-pressed juices, it's encouraged to eat vegetables daily for their myriad of health benefits. Your body constantly craves the unique vitamins and nutrients found in vegetables and drinking cold-pressed juices helps to fulfill those needed cravings. Not only will your physical body thank you, but also your brain. We cannot forget that our brains are essential to the success of our everyday functions. Fueling the brain and the body in one go is an opportunity that cannot be passed up. From consuming our veggie-filled juices you will receive the following health benefits:


  • Improved eye health 
  • Reduced blood pressure and a healthier heart
  • Anti-aging effects
  • Iron efficiency 
  • Improved memory and brain functions
  • Healthier skin 
  • Weight maintenance 
  • Reduced constipation

These benefits plus more is where traditional blended juices fall short. In the process of making traditional name brand juices many nutrients, thus health benefits, are lost and even replaced by sugars that have opposite health effects. By preserving the integrity of the juice, you are receiving more nutrients. Our juices contain vitamins A, C, B1, B2, B6, Folic Acid, Calcium, Magnesium, and more that all work together to improve your overall health and longevity of life. 


BENEFIT #3 - AVOID UNNEEDED INGREDIENTS 

Ingredients that are not meant for your body should not go into your body. Ever find yourself not being able to pronounce 80% of the ingredients listed on the back of your store-bought juices? That will never be a problem when purchasing Living Juices. Our ingredients are short and familiar, making for a drinking experience you will want to come back to. 


With cold-pressed juices you will know each ingredient going into your body. Some of our simple ingredients include oranges, ginger, kale, lemon, fennel, and more. Our ingredients are straight from the soil and do not contain any unwanted and harmful substances not meant to be consumed by the human body. Unwanted chemicals and metals such as lead and inorganic arsenic can be found in other big-name juice brands which is a risk you will not have to think twice about when drinking Living Juice.


BENEFIT #4 - THEY’RE DELICIOUS AND FUN!

Being able to enjoy a drink and make it an overall fun experience should not be a luxury. Who doesn’t want to enjoy a refreshing pink, orange, yellow, or green drink! The vibrant colors of our cold-pressed juices match exactly what's inside and will have you coming back for more (but the health benefits you will quickly feel may also). No longer have a sour face while eating your veggies, but rather smile and feel refreshed while drinking them!
