What a cool way to beat the summer heat by a tall glass of raw fruits and vegetables juice with crushed ice and pretty garnishing. As I tend to juice more fruits during hot days with Champion Juicer, I need to remind myself of the relatively high sugar content that fruits carry. Therefore I would consciously incorporate some varieties of vegetables to balance up the concoction.

I have a nice Champion Juicer recipe here to help you combat dehydration. Dehydration happens when the amount of water leaving your body (through sweating) is more than the amount you take in during hot summer days. Champion Juicer’s ability to extract the minerals and distilled water from the fibers of fruits and vegetables makes it very ideal for you to replenish fluid in your body by drinking raw fruit and vegetable juices made using Champion Juicer.

Try this Champion Juicer recipe and stay hydrated throughout summer.

Champion Juicer’s Summer Spring

• 3 Carrots, peel and remove green tops
• 2 stalks Celery, discard leaves
• Spinach, handful
• Parsley, a sprig
• 1 Green apple
• Mint leaves, for garnishing
• crushed ice

Bundle up Spinach and Parsley. Push through the feeding chamber of Champion Juicer alternating with carrots and celery, then finish up with the green apple. You need to bundle up the small leafy vegetables as Champion Juicer is not the best juicer to extract them.

I have more highly recommended recipes to share with you in my juicer recipe collection.

ENJOY….

1.  Which vegetable should you juice?

• Good question!  It is all up to YOU.
• To make juicing pleasant and enjoyable, the vegetables you choose must taste pleasant or according to your taste preference.
• Avoid strong tasting vegetables eg. leeks, onion, garlic etc even though these are healthy choices.
• Be creative to try mix and match different types of vegetables so that you will get a good variety of nutrients.
• One good guide I follow is to incorporate a rainbow colored range of vegetables in my juices. Champion Juicer chews up practically any type of vegetables you feed to the juicing chamber.

2.  Balance vegetables which are high in sugar content with other lower sugar vegetables.

• Generally, root vegetables contain higher sugar than those vegetables that grow above the ground.
• Use carrots, beetroots, potatoes, cabbage etc in moderation and always mix with vegetables like celery, cucumber, leafy greens, lettuce etc. These are choices that are friendly to the Champion Juicer.

3.  Use organic vegetables whenever possible and stick to local produce.

• Even though Champion Juicer separates the mineral nutrients from the pulp where inorganic pesticides may be trapped, it is always wise to spent a little more to buy organic grown vegetables. You will get more nutrients out of organic vegetables.
• Support the local produce or farm. That way, you will get vegetables that are fresh and full of enzymes.

4.  Drink immediately.

• Even though Champion Juicer can make you high quality juices which are not compromised by oxidation, you will get the best of nutrients if you drink it immediately after you juice it.
• Having said so, juices made with Champion Juicer can be stored up to a day with a slight decrease in nutrients.
• Here’s what you should do. Pour the juice gently into a narrow necked glass bottle right up to the very top to keep the oxygen out. Screw tight the lid, wrap the bottle with Aluminum foil to cut out the light. Store in fridge.

You may ask: why not blend the vegetables or eat them whole, instead of juicing them? Well, the fact is fibers contain no nutritional values. It only acts as a broom, sweeping your intestine clean. If fiber is still present in your juice, it will render the absorption of nutrient inefficient. Champion Juicer is very good at throwing the fiber out of vegetables.

Vegetable juices made with Champion Juicer have been found to contain enzymes in abundance. Enzymes acts as catalysts and they are the agent for change or action without they themselves being changed. When the enzymes are activated, the life-containing elements in food are also being released in our body

The juices extracted by Champion Juicer from fresh raw vegetables are the channels by which you can furnish all your body cells and tissues with the nutritional enzymes you need because it can be readily digested and assimilated.
