JUICE THERAPY
INTRODUCTION
“LET FOOD BE YOUR MEDICINE”
(Hippocrates:477-377 BC)
Benefits of juice therapy
recommended in the century of
old Ayurveda.
A lot more than just a taste.
Potent weapon for preventing
diseases.
WHAT IS JUICE THERAPY????
Juice therapy is the method of
treating disease through an
exclusive diet of fruit and
vegetable juices.
Also called as juice fasting
Faster recovery from disease
Cleansing and regeneration
of the tissues.

WHY JUICES??
You get more nutrients from foods when they
are raw - juice is raw food
Raw food is much more easily digested than
cooked food
When you drink juice, nutrients are delivered to
your blood stream within minutes
Juicing removes all the fiber so your body only
has to process the liquid nutrients
You get the same digestive enzymes, vitamins
and minerals as if you had eaten the fruits and
vegetables
Around 70% of your energy every day is spent on
digestion alone, so when you are eating 3 meals a
day plus snacks, you are rarely giving your body a
chance to direct energy to deeply cleansing the
body and drawing up old acidic waste that is
likely causing a whole host of symptoms.
If you suffer from headaches, constipation,
diarrhea, skin troubles, fatigue, irritability,
excess weight, bloating or any other number of
symptoms, your body needs some help to cleanse.
The intelligent application of fasting is a brilliant
way of helping you to do this.
WHAT HAPPENS DURING A JUICE FAST
Diseases occur due to the wrong foods we’ve been
feeding our bodies through the years. Toxins from
processed/refined foods (artificial food additives,
preservatives, chemicals, etc.) and the polluted
environment “clog” our cells, suffocating them and
causing diseases, inflammation and pain.
When doing a juice fast:
In the absence of solid foods but with the flood of
nutrients from fresh juices, the body cells begin to
release the toxins (inferior materials) that they were
holding on to and replace them with nutrients from
fresh juices (superior materials). This is a time of
cleansing where repairs, healing and nourishment
take place.
.
WASTES/TOXINS BEING ELIMINATED:
Trans-fatty acids and fatty tissues, and along with it,
drugs, chemicals, pesticides, etc.
Dead, dying or diseased cells
Toxic wastes in the lymphatic system and bloodstream
Toxic wastes in the spleen, liver and kidneys
Excess mucus from the lungs and sinuses
Excess cholesterol
Years of faulty diet, beers, junk food, sweets, etc. are
being torn down and released as toxins into the blood
to be transported out of your system.
NOTE :- Be sure to drink plenty of water (distilled
water is best) during fasting to flush these wastes out
efficiently. You may encounter some healing crisis but
they are evidence that your body is responding nicely
to the fast.
BASICS
Improve digestion
Vital nutrition
Transform poor diet
Reform eating habits
Reduces craving
Body purification
Enhance body
Intelligence
Improves state of health
Weight loss
IMPROVED DIGESTION
With the fiber removed in the juice
extraction process, vital juices retain
the digestive enzymes. These enzymes
get to work on breaking down old
food debris in your digestive tract.
The nutrients in the juices regenerate
the glands and organs associated with
digestion so digestive excretions are more
vital, muscular action is stronger and your
ability to absorb nutrient is more efficient.
Improving digestion is an integral part of the
positive affect and improvement in the lives and health
of those that consume vital juices.
Improving digestion improves body health. Less
undigested food in your digestive tract means more the
energy and a lighter state of being.
JUICING OFFERS VITAL NUTRITION
Raw vegetable juicing offers your body
a myriad of essential vitamins and
minerals in their most natural and
potent state.
Raw juices contain certain natural medicines,
antibiotics and vegetal hormones.
For example, fresh juice of onion, tomato, garlic
and radish contain antibiotic substances, string
bean contains insulin like substance and
cucumber and onion juice have the hormone
needed by the pancreas to produce insulin.
TRANSFORMS POOR DIET TO HEALTHY ONE
Very few of us are eating the diet we need to in
order to achieve optimal health.
With the introduction of raw fruit and vegetable
juicing to your daily diet, even an admittedly
poor diet becomes extremely healthy and life
giving
Improving your state of health is possible without
making drastic changes to your diet.
Through vital foods juicing, you are giving your
body the vitality, nutrients and digestive
enzymes that you should be ingesting and would
be ingesting on vital plant food diet.
JUICING REFORM EATING HABITS
Because of your improved health, you will find
that through juicing, your eating choices improve
naturally.
Awakened body intelligence directs and guides
the body towards obtaining optimal health.
JUICING REDUCES FOOD CRAVINGS
A food craving is an intense desire to consume a
particular food especially when under stress.
Food rich in carbohydrates and refined sugar
such as cake, icecream and choclate are often
more craved than other foods.
Those with a food addiction have been found to be
plagued with symptoms like depression,
insomnia, irritability, headaches, and mood
changes, which seemingly can be temporarily
relieved by eating the food they crave.
BODY PURIFICATION
Dead cells, waste, toxins and chemicals(which
are called free radicles), accumulated in the body
are neutralized by the body’s defences.
Free radical accumulated are attached to the live
healthy cells which causes degenerative disease,
reduces organ functions and premature aging.
Drinking vital juices aids your body’s ability to
purify itself of impurities and free radicals.
Raw juices are rich in alkaline elements, which help
to normalise acid-alkaline balance in our body. Like
in most of the health conditions, there is excess
acidity in the body. Juices can help prevent it.
Raw juices have good amount of easily absorbable
organic minerals like calcium, potassium and silicon.
These minerals help in restoring biochemical and
mineral balance in the cells and tissues and thus,
prevent premature ageing.
Raw juice helps in speedy recovery by supplying
needed elements for body's healing process and cell
regeneration.
JUICING ENHANCES BODY INTELLIGENCE
It increases electrical and magnetic energy
within the body, Which enhances the receptivity
of brain and nervous system. Which improves
body’s ability to communicate with the brain.
This is called BODY INTELLIGENCE.
Body intelligence is the miracle of raw vegetable
juicing
Your health not only improves because of the
influx of potent unrefined nutrients and trace
elements and an influx of vital life energy but
because of an awakened body intelligence that
will positively influence your appetite and eating
choices
JUICING IMPROVES STATE OF HEALTH
Consuming vital raw plant
food in form of juice improve your
state of health without
abstinence or self – denial
Your body knows how fast
or slow to travel on the road
to optimal health
Keeping a vision of optimal
health will awaken your
body’s desire to consume vital foods and their juices
LOSING WEIGHT
Your appetite will improve.
Improved digestion and elimination.
Increased metabolism.
Juicing corrects body malnutrition.
FOCUS ON YOUR GOAL
It’s not longer a luxury to be healthy.
It’s basic necessity to live a balanced
and normal life.
Perhaps junk is more toxic than
ever and no one can get away from
falling ill with eating like that
anymore.
SO CAN YOU AFFORD TO BE SICK??????

RESEARCH PUBLISHED IN THE INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CHILD
HEALTH AND NUTRITION, PUBLIC HEALTH NUTRITION, AMERICAN
JOURNAL OF HEALTH PROMOTION , AND ARCHIVES OF PEDIATRIC
ADOLESCENT MEDICINE ANALYZED DATA ON DIET QUALITY OF JUICE
DRINKERS
Juice drinkers generally had higher levels of
important vitamins and nutrients including vitamins
C and B6, folate, potassium, magnesium and iron. .
Consumption of juice was also associated with lower
intakes of total fat, saturated fatty acids,
discretionary fat, and added sugars and with higher
intakes of whole fruit.
Total fiber intake among juice-drinkers was either
the same or higher than non-juice drinkers.
In 100 percent juice drinkers showed better nutrient
intake, nutrient adequacy, and diet quality than non-
consumers, indicating that 100 percent juice is a
healthful, nutrient dense beverage.
JUICE AND NUTRIENT INTAKE
A review of scientific research published
in Advances in Nutrition provides evidence
suggesting 100 percent juice contains bioactive
plant components with the potential to positively
affect human health.
The study specifically looks at apple, cranberry,
grape, grapefruit, orange, and pomegranate
100 percent fruit juice intake.
Juice intake is linked to protective effects on
cancer, cardiovascular disease, cognition,
hypertension, inflammation, oxidation, platelet
function, urinary tract infection, and vascular
reactivity.
A review in the Journal of Agricultural and Food
Chemistry finds that orange juice processing can
increase the bioaccessibility of nutrients.
This research found processing fruit into juice
made certain nutrients, vitamin C and carotenoid
more accessible for the body to absorb.
Levels of vitamin C and carotenoid levels were
slightly decreased, compared to whole fruit, but
at the same time significantly increased the
bioaccessibility of these two nutrients, making
them more available to be absorbed by the body.
