Why Juice?Juices are really amazing healing drinks. Juices are particularly good for people who have damaged digestive systems, who have difficulty digesting vegetables, or are ill in any other way. This is due to the fact that removing the fibre releases all of the nutrients from those plants, without your body having to do any work.
Juices are great to have when you want to do a cleanse of your body. This is because your body will not be putting any effort towards digestion, so all that energy can be directed to ridding the body of built up waste and toxins. Juicing allows the body to focus on healing while still providing nutrients to your body that would not be present during a water fast. Juices are also awesome for supporting the healing of a damaged gut, and a plethora of other health issues depending on the ingredients present.

Why Blend?
Smoothies are awesome for those who need a quick meal on the go and do not have time to sit down and eat something. They are great for a meal before or after a workout, because smoothies are light enough that they won’t weigh you down but they are substantial enough that you won’t feel hungry again in 15 minutes. You can also pack them full of ingredients that will help with your recovery after a work out.
Smoothies are also great for those who are coming off of a fast of any kind, as it will help to re-introduce your body to solid foods again in a more gradual way than jumping straight into eating would. Smoothies will help to cleanse out your colon, because they contains the fibre that will help to “sweep” out your intestinal tract. These fibres will bind to toxins and usher them out of your system. Smoothies are also amazing for those who want to start introducing more raw foods into their diets, but don’t know how. You can hide a number of less palatable ingredients like dark greens and superfoods under the sweet taste of fruit in a smoothie.
