Blog16: Juicing: Good or Bad?

Fruit and vegetables should be an important part of your daily diet. They are naturally good and contain vitamins and minerals that can help to keep you healthy. They can also help protect against many diseases. Interestingly, a method called "juicing" has become increasingly popular in recent years. This involves extracting the nutritious juices from fresh fruits and vegetables.
Many people do this in order to "detox" or add more nutrients to their diets. Some claims that juicing can improve nutrient absorption, while others say it strips away important nutrients like fiberThis is a detailed review of juicing and its health effects, both good and bad.
Juicing can actually lose a lot of the good things we find in our fruits and veggies such as antioxidants and phytochemicals which are found in the skin of these foods that aren’t included in the juicing process. The effects of fiber found in these fruits and vegetables are lost as well. Fiber is crucial for keeping you feeling full and for regulating digestion!
While the high water content of a juicing diet can help one stay hydrated as well, the negative effects seem to outweigh the benefits. Despite the common result of weight loss in just a few short days, juicing can have a negative impact on your metabolism if done for a long period of time. Lean muscle mass breaks down only after a couple of days, which is bound to happen while juicing if one isn’t getting the balanced diet of proteins, grains, dairy, etc. that is recommended.
An important fact to remember is that our bodies are wonderful machines! We already have an immune system and various organs that assist the body in getting rid of toxins. Nothing significantly shows that we need an outside source to cleanse our systems.
You might also consider blending instead of juicing. Blending the edible parts of fruits produces a drink that contains more healthy phyto-nutrients and fiber. And fiber can help you feel full. Smoothies could be a better alternative to juicing, because they retain a lot more of the nutrients found in fruits and vegetables.
Another option is to incorporate juicing into a well-balanced diet of your proteins, grains, and other essential foods. You can get all the positive benefits without it being harmful to your health!
Fresh juices contain important vitamins and antioxidants that can benefit your health. "However, fruits and vegetables are still the healthiest and most nutritious when consumed whole."
THANK YOU!!

कमलगट्टा: फायदे और खाने के तरीके

कमलगट्टे का नाम तो आपने सुना ही होगा। कमलगट्टा, कमल का ही फल है, जिसका निर्माण कमल के फूल से ही होता है। आपको जानकर आश्चर्य होगा कि पूजा-पाठ और मंत्रजाप की माला में प्रयोग किया जाने वाला कमलगट्टा खाने के काम भी आता है। कमल के इस फल में मौजूद बीजों को छीलकर खाया जाता है, जो मूंगफली की तरह होते हैं। यह स्वादिष्ट छोटा सा बीज कई प्रकार के पोषक तत्वों से भरपूर होता है।   कमलगट्टा, कमल का बीज या कमल नट है जो कमल की प्रजातियों के फल (नेलुम्बो न्यूसीफेरा) से निकलता है। कई लोग मखाना को कमल का बीज कहते हैं लेकिन यह गलत है। मखाना या फॉक्सनट पानी की लिली की एक अलग प्रजाति से संबंधित है जिसे यूरेल फेरॉक्स कहा जाता है। चूंकि दोनों जलीय निवास में बढ़ती प्रजातियों से संबंधित हैं, इसलिए लोग पहचान के साथ भ्रमित होते हैं। दोनों फॉक्स नट्स (या गोर्गन नट्स) और लोटस नट्स खाने योग्य हैं, लेकिन उपयोग अलग है। मखानों को बनाने के लिए फॉक्सनट्स को उच्च ताप पर पॉपअप किया जाता है और जो पॉप नहीं किए जाते हैं उन्हें मखाने का सत्तू बनाया जाता है जो क...
