💡 Healthy juicing tips

Most of the time, we combine fresh vegetable juice with fruit juice in our healthy juicing recipes to ensure the taste, tartness, and sweetness are excellent and fabulous; this ensures the detox juice cleanse is a pleasing experience that is easy to maintain over time.

The key to a juice cleanse is sticking to your cleanse for at least one week; that way, you will experience its health benefits.

Mainly, we use veggies and try to keep a 3-1 ratio with veggies and fruit to avoid skyrocketing the sugar content unless we do yoga or go jogging when the sugar is well spent.

Some veggies, such as carrots and beets, are naturally sweet and don’t need much fruit to make a lightly sweetened juice.

When we first started juicing our carrot, apple, and celery juice, along with our simple but powerful celery juice, they became staples in our breakfast until we started adding more variety and delicious fruits and veggies.

When the weight has gone up a little, we use our juice for weight loss, which has many flavors and features de-bloating ingredients. Green smoothies are also great for weight loss as, in general, they are made with leafy vegetables and contain fewer calories.

Our go-to green juice is made with a combination of kale, spinach, and fruits like green apple, coming together in a delicious green detox juice.

We do juice cleanses every month and sometimes use them as a meal replacement. Also, we love making veggie-packed juice to enjoy with our homemade granola, vegan scramble or oats, and chia pudding.

🤔 Detox juice recipe

On this occasion, we created this Beetroot Detox Juice as part of an Ayurvedic Cleanse for our friends from Ayurveda Lifestyle Yoga Academy. We combined highly alkalizing pineapple, beta-carotene-packed carrots and beets, tangy immune system booster, anti-inflammatory ginger, and lime for this beetroot detox juice recipe, making it the perfect detox cleanse elixir.

Beets and carrots - both the vegetables in this carrot beet juice recipe bring sweetness and extremely eye and skin-nurturing properties. Pineapple adds lots of tropical flavor and water, while lime and ginger add zing. Please look at our Hangover Juice recipe for another excellent detox juice.

If you have problems with digestion after over-indulging in foods and alcohol, juices can also offer great help!

Consuming green cabbage juice and Red cabbage juice with apples is also an excellent way to support gut health.

🧾 Ingredients

When making fresh juice, try to shop for organic vegetables and fruits. This tasty juice requires only five ingredients.

• Beets
• Fresh carrots
• Pineapple chunks
• Lime juice (or lemon juice)
• Fresh ginger

See quantities and complete instructions in the recipe card.

Tip: always use fresh produce and whole fruits and vegetables.

Substitutions

• Pineapple - use green apples like granny Smith apple, sweet and tart.
• Lime - you can use lemon and limes interchangeably.

🔪 How to make our favorite beet juice detox recipe

Wash all the ingredients thoroughly. Peel the pineapple and the lemon. Then, chop all the ingredients into medium chunks that fit your juicer's aperture.

We use a Slow Masticating Juicer for the juice recipes that we love. Juicers break down into cold-pressed (also called slow masticating or macerating juicers) and centrifugal juicers.

The cold-pressed juicers slowly press down the vegetables and fruits until the juice is squeezed out and the dry fiber falls into another container.

On the other hand, centrifugal juicers extract juice quickly and, spinning, cut down produce until the pulp and liquid separate.

Centrifugal juicers are typically cheaper, as the spinning mechanism creates heat, breaking down enzymes. However, slow-masticating juicers are more efficient at getting more juice from your veggies and fruits.

If you want to save some bucks, buy a centrifugal juicer and add a ⅕ ratio of water to augment the volume without losing flavor.

But here is the catch: In my experience, slow juicers yield about 40% more juice, so in the long run, you save more.

Our juicer is a slow, cold-pressed juicer, and I am delighted. We used to have a centrifugal juicer, but we did experience, from time to time, a funny smell when the motor would get stuck for a couple of seconds with not enough produce. That smoky-burn flavor can permeate into your juice.

A juicer makes quick veggies, fruit, roots, leafy greens, etc. The carrot beet juice comes together in under 10 minutes.

If you don't have a juicer, you can also make juices, by following these simple tips on juicing without a juicer, plus three delicious recipes.

🫙 Storage

Remember that it is always better to consume freshly squeezed juice, but if you have carrot and beetroot juice leftovers, store them in a BPA-free (affiliate link), airtight container.

Store your vegetable juice recipes in the refrigerator for 24 to 48 hours.

✅ Benefits of carrot and beetroot juice

We love learning about the nutritional aspects of fruits, veggies, and fresh juices, so let’s explore the benefits of carrot beetroot juice.

• Beets with high folate content should be your go-to option if you need to increase your blood’s levels of hemoglobin. It is also a great source of Vitamin C and iron. Their natural sweetness is great because you need less sugary fruits in your fruit juicers to sweeten them.
• Carrot juice (hello pretty skin) – the beta-carotenes present in carrots promote eye and skin health.
• Pineapples – have been linked to significant health benefits, including relief of arthritis symptoms, aiding digestion, improved immunity, and recovery after exercise.
• Limes (and lemons) - are very high in Vitamin C, a staple immune-boosting nutrient. They are highly alkalizing and are known for their antioxidant and detoxifying properties. Also, vitamin C helps with absorbing the iron found in beets.
• Ginger is the king in juices. Ginger aids in digestion, has powerful anti-inflammatory effects, and relieves bloating. We love that is no need to peel ginger before juicing it. Just scrub it clean, and cut the pieces off, then push them through the juicer. If you’re sensitive to ginger’s spicy quality, try adding it and taste it before adding more.

Tip: if using fresh pineapple, don't forget to save your pineapple peels to make a delicious, anti-inflammatory, zero-calorie drink that you are sure to love: pineapple-infused water, another great hydration drink for detox periods.

It is also popular to have green juice as part of your juice cleanse. Be sure to check our juice containing kale and green apples, including fresh ginger, which is packed with health benefits; it makes a tremendous anti-inflammatory juice and helps to lose weight. I would say it should always be present in a healthy diet.
