Why Juicing Is Awesome – Adina Niemerow, author of “Super Cleanse,” shares the benefits of juicing while she and host Judy Greer make a green juice with a mix of fruit and vegetables. Adina also shares her recipe for a green energizer drink.

Juices with greens help to detoxify your liver, gallbladder, helps make you skin, nails, and hair healthy. You can eat, have a great cleanse, and lose weight.

In general, juicing:

  • Gives the digestive tract a break. The body spends a lot of energy in digestion.
  • Juicing removes pulp and fiber from fruits and veggies, allowing your body to absorb nutrients quickly and giving your immunity an immediate boost.

In Chinese medicine, the organ associated with anger is the liver.

Ginger helps neutralize acids and stimulates digestive juices to break down food. Ginger also warms the body, especially on cold days.
