“What is the difference between juicing and blending?”

Juicing VS Blending

“Isn’t juice bad because it removes all the fiber?”

“I tried blending smoothies but they were so thick and didn’t taste good!”

These are comments I hear almost on a weekly basis from clients. 

So, I want to take the time here to clear up the confusion and also to make a plug for both! They both can be great sources of nutrition. 

Here are the basics

Juicing

Blending

Which is better?

They’re both great!

It depends on your goals.

Juicing is the worlds greatest multi-vitamin/multi-mineral and a powerhouse of phytonutrients because the nutrients are so concentrated. It is excellent for healing, detox, hydration, boosting immune function, and making your skin glow.

Blending gives you a great opportunity to add all kinds of goodies to your drink! Throw in veggies, fruit, nuts, seeds, high-quality fats, yogurt or kefir, protein powder, green powder, spirulina, and so much more. 

And then, there is The “JUICY”!

This is my creation that I have for breakfast every day. Not only is it delicious, it is packed with high-impact nutrition! I start by making vegetable juice and then I use that as the liquid base for the smoothie. Then I add all kinds of cool smoothie ingredients such as fruit, oils, and seeds.
