From B.fresh
Katie Briggs from B.fresh, the cold pressed British juice brand, has pulled together the top 10 reasons you should try juices as part of a healthy, balanced lifestyle this year.
You can add more vegetables to your diet - many people get stuck into a routine of eating the same vegetables and salads each day so juices, such as B.fresh - that are vegetable based, offer a great way to add a larger variety of vegetables to your meals.
It can help keep colds and flu at bay - there have been many studies which document the healing properties of vegetable juices as many are rich in vitamins and minerals - which can help to keep your immune system strong. The limited edition B.fresh #winterwarmer includes vitamin A and a delicious blend of carrot, apple and ginger - all the ingredients needed to help keep a cold at bay and skin glowing.
It's a step closer to getting your five a day - we're all told from a very young age that we must eat our fruit and vegetables and having a cold pressed vegetable juice or two each day means you can easily tick off some of your must have veg in a few gulps, without the heavy intake of natural sugar found in fruit juice.
It adds more vitamins to your system - many of us do not get enough vitamins in our diets and juices are packed full of vitamins, so it is an easy way to boost the nutrients your body needs to keep on top form. All B.fresh drinks are cold pressed so they are the closest thing, in terms of vitamin intake, to eating vegetables.
Raw vegetables - there is a wealth of research to suggest that raw vegetables are better for you than cooked vegetables as they don't have all the goodness, cooked, steamed or boiled out of them. All of the fruit and vegetables in B.fresh cold, pressed juices is 100% natural, with all the goodness kept in.
Boost your energy - one of the most popular reasons that people decide to start juicing is that it boosts your energy levels. Juicing helps your body to get the nutrients it needs faster, so your energy levels can be boosted quickly throughout the day.
Vegetables on the move - with busy 24/7 lifestyles it can be hard to find the time to pick up a healthy snack, vegetable juices offer a good way to maintain a healthy, balanced lifestyle on the go.
Time saving - buying cold pressed juices saves lots of time - instead of needing to buy lots of fruit and vegetables, cut and peel them to juice at home. Bottled juices, like those from B.fresh, have done all the hard work for you. All you need to do is drink and enjoy!
Maintaining a balanced, healthy lifestyle - drinking juice is an excellent way to increase your daily servings of vegetables, here at B.fresh we don't advise using them as meal replacements. Juice is a health supplement, to help support and maintain a healthy, balanced diet.
Family friendly - there's a juice for all the family whether you prefer a sharp zesty, juice or something a bit sweeter. The naturally sweet juices, are a great fun way to get your children to drink their vegetables and try new flavours.
