There are two parts to all plant life and they are 1) fibers and the 2) juice. Fiber is essential to proper digestion and optimal health. However, when you are juicing the fiber (pulp) is often left behind which allows all the nutrients, enzymes and phytochemicals to be quickly digested and absorbed by the body. The digestive system absorbs a large amount of the nourishment in whole raw fruits and vegetables. The bodies rapid absorption of raw juices quickly provides the cells and tissues with the nutrients and enzymes.
In order for the digestive system to separate the nutrition from fiber involves time and labor. Fruit is absorbed rather quickly, but vegetables can take up to hours. Our bodies only have so much energy to go around and by digesting certain foods use up energy. That is often why you get that sluggish, tired feeling after a heavy meal. Your body is taking a lot of energy to digest the food you just ate. When fruits and vegetables are juiced and we drink the juice our bodies don't have to go through that tiresome work of separating the fibers from the juices.
Although Juicing has it's benefits it also has limitations.
Produce
Most of the fruits and vegetables are at their peak nutritional value when they are ripe. However, more than 60% of the produce commercially grown in the United States is picked several days before it is ripe. Then it is shipped all over and when it arrives at its destination and then by the time you purchase it and bring it home it is several days or even weeks old and still not naturally ripe. In order for fruits and vegetables to keep their appearance keep from spoiling they have been sprayed with several chemicals.
The Science of Juicing
Do you know which parts of the plant to juice? Do you know which plants are better blanched or steamed? Did you pick the plants at just the right time? Did you know some plants are at their highest nutritional quality when picked before sunrise?
Selection
Do we have enough different kinds of plants to meet the wide range of nutrients our bodies need? Our bodies need a huge variety of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, amino acids, essential oils, proteins and carbohydrates. Lets just say we are severely limited by the selection of fruits and vegetables available to us.
Sunrider is "Healthy Fast Food to Go!"
Personally, I have never gone to the trouble of juicing because I am lucky enough to have Sunrider herbal foods at my finger tips and they provide me with more nutrients than I could ever get from juicing. The Sunrider products provide me with a wide variety of herbs and foods everyday. They are inexpensive compared to what it would cost me to juice and receive the same benefits. In fact, we did a calculation once a couple years ago and we figured we would have to juice approximately $50 worth of fruits and vegetables in order to receive the benefits we get from one package of NuPlus for $2. Consuming the Sunrider Vitashake or NuPlus I don't even have to think about whether I am getting enough variety, or what time the plant or fruit was picked and whether its at its nutritional peak because it's all been done for us.
All the fruits, vegetables and herbs used in "Sunrider concentrated juices" have been harvested at the exact moment of optimum nutrition and prepared according to the precise requirements of each plant. No additives, chemicals or preservatives are used at any stage of the products of Sunrider products. Sunrider is the optimum in convenient and efficient nutrition, for people "on the go". Sunrider has done all the work for us!
The ancient Chinese have perfected the science of juicing and extracting, and use hundreds of plants. We choose maybe 20 and I would say that is high.
Fresh juice can be an excellent source of nutrients. Sunrider uses several hundred plants in their formulas for a broad and balanced spectrum of nutrient complexes. All formulas are perfectly balanced within themselves and with all other Sunrider formulas. They mix well with other foods in our diets. The other great thing is it takes no energy for our body to digest the Sunrider Foods. We call them "pre-digested". You are giving your body this highly concentrated nutrition and your body receives all the wonderful benefits without any waste or energy requirements. The cells, tissues, organs, etc simply absorb all the nutrients. When I drink my Sunrider NuPlus or vitashake I always say it feels like my body is a sponge....I can feel it literally just absorbing or soaking up all the wonderful nutrients.
Sunrider is the largest herbal food company in the world. No other company uses their exclusive methods with this attention to detail, quality and purity. In addition to the fresh fruits and vegetables you eat as a part of your daily diet, Sunrider herb foods can help provide you with an additional supply of nutritional elements from which our bodies can create glowing health and vitality.
