Over the past decade or so, there has been a striking difference in the way common people in India think of their health. With the growing awareness among them about the importance of healthy living, people are making changes to their daily routines and diet. One of the most noticeable changes or rather health trends going around is the consumption of juices to start the day.
But drinking ready-made tetra-pack juice will not benefit your health. Fresh, homemade juice is paramount to getting maximum nutritional benefits from fruits and vegetables. Also, it is important to use the right kind of fruit juicer machine to extract juice.
Many healthcare experts, dieticians, and nutritionists worldwide have corroborated that using a cold press juicer or slow juicer is the best way to extract juice from fruits and vegetables. Making fresh juice at home using a slow juicer has many benefits. It is also the easiest way to add more nutrient-rich fruits and vegetables to your daily diet.
There are hundreds of healthy juice recipes, each combining different ingredients and offering different health benefits. But if you like to add a bit of variety and colour to your daily diet, you can consider making cold-pressed rainbow juice. Inspired by the colours of the rainbow, these juices are packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. These vibrant concoctions are not only delicious but also incredibly good for your health.
