Juicing is all the rage, but how do you know if you're getting a good, quality juice?
The best way is to make it yourself.
In fact, Steve and Julie Prussack, authors of Juice Guru: Transform Your Life by Adding One Juice a Day, believe it's important to incorporate one juice every single day.
Juicing can be very simple, especially when you begin with Steve and Julie's "template" recipe of cucumber, celery, leafy greens (such as kale or spinach), lemon and ginger.
Why should you choose juicing over blending your greens into a smoothie? According to Steve, you get more concentration of nutrients when you juice.
Steve and Julie advise drinking your juice on an empty stomach, first thing in the morning, to reap the most benefits.
The juice gurus also point out that the one juice a day protocol is an addition to your daily regimen, not a replacement.
What kind of juicer should you look for? Steve and Julie recommend a vertical slow juicer; not only is it a great juicer, but it also saves on counter space... which is important for creating this daily habit.
Listen in as Steve and Julie join host Lisa Davis to share more about the book, as well as tips for getting started with a juicing regimen.
