While juicing may help with weight loss and weight
maintenance, it is important to remember that it is unlikely
to be the average dieter's 'magic bullet'. This is due to the
fact that whether we are vegetables to create our juices, or
a using fruit or combination of both, they all contain some
calories. Juicing separates the calorie-dense juice from the
fruit or veggie's fiber – what we normally refer to as pulp.
The juice of most fruits contains much more sugar than
many of us realize. For example, very few of us would eat
four normal-sized oranges at one sitting, but that is
effectively what we do when we consume one standard
glass (250ml) of orange juice. Most orange juices contain
10g of sugar 100ml. That totals 25g of sugar just from the 6.
Per oranges alone – more than you'll get from a 39g Cadbury
Wispa bar (20.5g)! So, when juicing for either weight loss or
weight maintenance, we need to make sure our juices are
really effective by following this rule of thumb: let
vegetables form the bulk of our ingredients!

fruit because of the natural sugar in fruit. If you are trying to gain
