Drink Recipes For Blenders

Can I make a veggie drink in a blender instead of a juicer?
or I am losing the nutrients? I am looking for recipes to make veggie drinks but I find that most require a juicer. Why cant I just use a blender? Looking to do a detox for a week or so and don’t know if thier is a specific reason for a juicer rather than a blender.
Oh and recipes would be great!
Thanks!
You won’t lose nutrients.
However, the whole point of juicing is to retain the nutrients and remove the fibre.
Solid fruits & vegetables (because of the fibre) require hours of digestion before their nourishment is finally available to the cells and tissues of the body.
Juices without fibre, are very quickly (within 15 mins) digested and assimilated into the body and so can get to immediate work replenishing and healing our cells.
Fibres in solid foods and blends have virtually no nourishing value, but they are very beneficial for-you-know-what…….
The following book is excellent. It only cost me $5.00 – best $5.00 I have ever spent:
“Fresh Vegetable and Fruit Juices – what’s missing in your body” by Norman.W.Walker D.Sc.
I brought a VitalMax Oscar 900 juicer for AUS $500 (you can get them A LOT cheaper in the USA) I use it at least three times a day, everyday. It is the best $500 I have ever spent.
Other books I highly recommend are:
“Juice Fasting Bible: Discover the Power of an All-Juice Diet to Restore Good Health, Lose Weight and Increase Vitality” By Sandra Cabot
“Green for Life” by Victoria Boutenko
To achieve a well balanced overall effect, you should consume both juices and blends BUT they are certainly different and should be treated as such.
Contrary to what the first poster says….. ……every study I have read has shown huge benefits to detox “diets” when juicing.
I have done several vegetable juice fasts and they have all been hugely beneficial to my health and well-being.
