Vegetable juices
STAR POWER: Vegetable juices
are blessed with three factors.
a) They are rich in antioxidants.
b) They are full of live enzymes..
c) They contain heat labile vitamins (that is, the vitamins that are usually lost while cooking)
Antioxiants are exceptionally important because they destroy the fee radicals that are continuously created in our body due to toxins form fertilizers, pollution and so on. Free radicals lead to inflammation in the heart, arthritis, mutations resulting in cacers and other terrible disease. The role of antioxidants was first discovered by naturopaths, but laboratory confirmations using advanced scientific tools are relatively recent.
Vegetable juices are also richin live enzymes. Enzymes are a component of food with the power to transform. They transform plant energy to an energy form that we can utilize. This power also resides in our livers, but we tend to overload the liver to such an extent that the body is unable to handle food. All problems of fatigue, dark circles under the eyes and lack of facial glow result from under metabolized food.
When we cook vegetables, all enzymes are lost due to the heat. So when we drink vegetable juices, we also get enzymes. Enzymes are present in raw salads, raw vegetables and fruit.
The third important aspect of vegetable juices is that they are a storehouse of vitamins like B complex and C that are otherwise destroyed in cooking
Many disorders due to indiscriminate eating are miraculously cured by naturopathy techniques and vegetable juice therapy.
