Juicing allows a quick boost of vitamins and minerals that your body can easily absorb and use right away. Hydrating with cold pressed juice in the morning time can also aid in reducing inflammation throughout the body as your body eliminates toxins. Green juice provides chlorophyll, which works to oxygenate the brain and improve your focus, while root vegetables can help you center and ground. All of this works together for total cellular rejuvenation—YES, please!

“Raw Foods” aka living foods are fresh raw fruits and vegetables that are enjoyed fresh or minimally processed in a blender or dehydrator under 118°F. The big benefit of enjoying lots of fresh raw fruits and vegetables come in the increase of antioxidants, enzymes and additional nutrients present in these foods. This helps your body build up stronger while at the same time supporting the daily detoxification process by helping cells convert energy and rebuild. Replacing current snacks with fresh carrots and celery or enjoying the simple dessert of a fresh fruit is an easy way to start getting more raw foods in your daily routine.
