What You Need to Understand

“Is juice equivalent to a smoothie?”

No, these are not the same thing at all. Both of them are quite healthy for you, so one isn’t necessarily superior to the other.

In a blender, a smoothie is created. Not juiced, but blended. When making a smoothie, you keep the pulp (which is insoluble fiber). Depending on what you’re combining, this could be either unpleasant or beneficial. Because of the pulp, blended drinks produce significantly more, which some people prefer, while others find it challenging to consume the entire amount.

A juicer is used to make juice. Your produce is “juiced” by juicers, which also remove the pulp (the insoluble fiber) from it. The juice is consumed, while the pulp is discarded. Soluble fiber is still a source of fiber for you. I know, it sounds insane. You just acquired new knowledge today.

You can still juice even if all you have is a blender! Using cheesecloth or similar material, you can strain the blended beverage to extract the juice. Although it requires a little more labor and won’t produce as much as a decent juicer, it’s still something.

“What distinguishes soluble from insoluble fiber?“

The pulp that is still there after juicing is insoluble fiber. Very little of this makes it into your juice. Insoluble fiber would drop to the bottom of a glass of water, soak up the water, and then puff up if you mixed it with it. You can imagine what it does for you if you visualize that moving through your body. It helps get things “moving” and alleviates constipation.

Personally, we adore the consistency and fantastic tastes that juice allows us to create. Although we can juice strange items like sweet potatoes and produce a delectable beverage that tastes like dessert, we occasionally feel as though our smoothies’ flavor options are somewhat constrained.

“What is the simplest way to begin juicing?“

Follow any of our juice recipes. All the recipes added to our website are straightforward while still allowing you to push yourself to adopt juicing as a healthier habit or lifestyle.

Whether you purchase a strange vegetable from the market, you can check our ingredients page to see what available juice you can make and see the nutrients it contains.

“Is juicing still healthy since it lacks of fiber?“

Although it is not digested, fiber aids in the passage of food through the digestive tract. Fiber comes in two varieties: soluble and insoluble. Still, your juice has a significant amount of soluble fiber. Even if your juice contained no fiber at all, it would still be incredibly beneficial to you.

Frequently Asked Questions

We are asked about juicing pretty frequently.

“Is it possible to store juice?“

Response: Yes

Yes, nutrients do become lost over time, but it happens extremely gradually. Here, we’re referring to fractions of an hour.

Moreover, there is enzyme stability. All of the reactions in our bodies are catalyzed by enzymes. But the narrative is the same as with nutrition. The enzymes are progressively lost over time, so by 72 hours, it’s safe to state that only a small portion of the enzymes in your juice has been lost.

“Is “juicing” only drinking juice and not eating anything else?“

Response: No

One glass of juice every day is all you need to consume to reap the rewards. A juice cleanser, also known as a “juice fast” or “reboot,” involves juicing for every meal. It’s a tad intense for a beginner.

“Can I use juice in place of a meal?“

Response: No, unless there is a lot of juice (32oz).

(Those who are on a juice cleanse are exempt from this)We notice that far too many people substitute one glass of juice for several meals and complain of “feeling light-headed for some reason.” Eating properly is the key to staying healthy and decreasing weight, not cutting back on calories.

“Juice is loaded with calories, right?“

Response: They are healthy calories.

Because you noticed that juice has a similar number of calories as potato chips on the back of the bag, you shouldn’t worry about growing fat off of juice. A calorie in juice is not the same as a calorie in potato chips. If you’re worried about juice calories, you’re not in the right frame of mind to be healthy. These are very beneficial calories.

Consider the other incredible nutrients that might be in your glass more. Even though avocado is quite calorically dense, no one ever claims that eating avocados would cause weight gain.

“But sugar, surely that’s terrible, right?“

Response: Natural and refined sugars differ.

A gram of natural sugar is far superior to a gram of refined sugar from coke. Both of these are really dissimilar.

Because the USDA understands that this is an issue and widespread misconception, the nutrition labels in the USA are changing to mention “Added Sugars” (mostly refined sugar) instead of lumping it all together as “Sugars”.

“In my blender, I can create juice, right?“

Response: Sort of.

Instead of blenders, our recipes are designed with juicers in mind. Cheesecloth and other such items can be used to generate juice, although it takes some effort.

“Can I reintroduce the pulp to my juice?“

Response: Yes…

You could, but that seems like preparing a smoothie the difficult way.

“Should I strain my juice to get rid of the pulp completely?“

Response: We like to, but it depends on the individual.

We personally prefer to strain our juice using a mesh strainer and a large bowl, except for those instances when we’re in the mood for pulp. We simply prefer smoothness.

Here is some advice we’ve picked up:

• Peel oranges (the peel has oil in it that tastes really bitter and gross). Everyone only makes this error once, but it’s edible.
• Lemons and limes don’t require peeling. The flavor of the peel is intriguing. You are in charge!
• Mangoes should be peeled, in our opinion, as the skin is not edible. De-seed them since they contain a large seed that will ruin your juicer.

“Do you have a mobile app?“

Response: Not yet.

It’s challenging to include all of our website’s features in an app, but we’re working on it. Instead of just attempting to cash in on our name, we want to create something amazing and distinctive.

But for now, we made sure that our website functions flawlessly on mobile devices.
