It seems like green juices are everywhere. In case you’re not familiar with what is actually in these green drinks, it’s usually a blend of green vegetables and maybe some fruit to add sweetness. These juices can be made with a blender and strainer or a juicer! The most common vegetables found in green juices include celery, spinach, kale, and cucumbers.

Health gurus seem to live by their green juices, almost as if it’s a holy grail solution to health problems. Is anything truly that beneficial though? Let’s talk about it!

Great Source of Vitamins and Minerals

Anytime you are ingesting that many leafy greens, you can expect to gain essential vitamins and minerals. Drinking green juice is great for this very reason. It’s a great way to boost your daily vitamin and mineral intake.

Supports Gut Health

Your gut is one of the most powerful parts of your body, as it affects your energy, your skin, your hormones, and your digestion. Green juices often have prebiotics, which are great for your gut health.

Improves Heart Health

Green juice is another great way to support your heart health. It can help with blood pressure levels and prevent heart disease.

There are clearly many benefits to drinking green juice. It’s important to note, however, that green juices is not a substitute for eating whole vegetables, it is meant to simply boost what you are already eating!

Cold-pressed juice is advertised as a healthier alternative to regular juice and because of that, it often costs more. But have you stopped to think about if cold-pressed juice is really better than regular juice? Here’s everything you need to know to make an informed decision about is cold-pressed juice is right for you.

What Is Cold-Pressed Juice?

Cold-pressing is a technique of making juice from fruits and vegetables without any added heat. It’s done with powerful machines that extract the juice. The juice is supposed to have more vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients than regular juice.

The other type of juicers are known as centrifugal juicers, and although they don’t use heat directly, the way they work heats up the produce which may lead to the loss of some of the nutrients.

Is Cold-Pressed Juice Better?

This depends on the type of plant the juice comes from. For some foods, like carrots, cold-pressing doesn’t make sense as they need heat to release antioxidants.

Nutritionally speaking, it’s always best to eat whole fruits and vegetables. If you want juice, cold-pressed versions may give you a bit more nutrients. It’s up to you and what you like to decide which juice you prefer.

We all know that fruits are full of vitamins, and it may seem logical to drink freshly squeezed juice in order to get more of the good stuff in less time, but this logic is deeply flawed. In fact, juice is not as healthy as you may believe and you shouldn’t be drinking it at all.

Freshly squeezed juice is only slightly healthier than a glass of sugary water. That’s because juicing the fruits leaves behind everything that’s actually useful, like seeds, peel, and fiber. Also, you’ll need to consume more fruit through juice to feel full compared to eating the same fruit. For example, a single orange has around 45 calories and it’s often enough for an in-between meals snack. To fill a regular glass with orange juice you’ll need 3 pieces of orange, which means triple the calories and it’s not even filling. Additionally, you will throw out everything that’s good for you in orange.

Think of this the next time you crave some fresh juice and eat a piece of fruit or two instead.

Now that everyone’s talking about cold-pressed juice you’re probably wondering if this is just another trend or something worth trying.

What Is Cold-Pressed Juice?

Now, let’s turn to the most important question: what is cold-pressed juice? Is it like the regular juice we all make at home? Well, not really. The term cold-pressed describes a technique that uses a press to extract the maximum amount of juice out of the fruits and vegetables that you’re using.

Is It Just A Hype?

There is a thing you need to know about this technique before you decide whether you want to splurge your money. This juice is only good for a few days because it shouldn’t go through the process of pasteurization. Brands that sell it use a different method to make the product last longer.

The price point is definitely higher than other types of juices, and it’s true that you get a little bit more from this drink. But, the truth is that no technique out there can compare to actually eating raw vegetables and fruits, so that should be your first choice. Juices fail to provide you with the same amount of fiber found in raw fruits and veggies and are often high in sugar.
