I've been reading on vegetable and fruit juicing lately and how it could help one reduce some excess weight, detox and improve health at the same time! Now that's a 3-in-1 combination that's hard to resist! I've been trying to get rid of extra weight for some time now, you know those last few pounds that you hope to lose, and yet instead of losing them, as the years pass by, you end up simply adding a little bit more to it... in the end, adding up a size or two, slows you down and you start to tire easily, have these little aches and pains that wear you down... Well, recently I bought a juicer, and bought a "juicing" book to go with it and have been "juicing" now almost regularly...
Here are some of the juicing recipes I found helpful...
