i don’t want to drink soda no more with my lunch and was wondering if theres a Healthy Juice out there but that comes in a can….any info will help, thanks

Health juice comes in fresh fruit and vegetables, not a can. You can buy fresh squeezed juices that are not from concentrate in plastic containers at the supermarket or freshly squeezed natural juice from juice bars (if there are any near where you live/work) but the cheapest option is to squeeze your own fresh juice at home using a juice maker. Better yet, eat the whole fruit/vegetable. You still get all the same liquid juice content and a lot more of the healthy vitamins and fibre. Try drinking water instead of soda whenever you feel thirsty.

I need some suggestions of juices with little sugar/calories/or any other horrible ingredient, and isn’t limited on the vitamins…Healthy you know?
thanks

Fresh squeezed made by you is always an option… Store juices have added sugars

It is important to be aware of what you eat. Especially, if you are beauty conscious.

Here’s a story of a client of mine named Cherisse. Her story emphasizes my earlier point on healthy eating and beautiful skin. I hope you find it interesting and educational.

The first time I met Cherisse she complained about her skin.  She said that her skin was clean and healthy in her youth.  But as she grew older all this changed.  

She developed blemishes and fine pimples on her face.  Her skin also had a dull, sallow appearance. And this made her look older than she really was. 

So, being the beauty conscious person she was, she decided to do something about it.  She turned to over-the-counter facial products. And began using them on her face.

So what happened next?  Did this help?

Well, she did admit to seeing some improvements in her condition.  But she still was not satisfied.  Her pimples and blemishes decreased.  But her skin still looked dull and aged.  She also complained of dryness after using the products.

But it was something else she said that revealed the cause of her problems.  She described what happens each time she drinks a lot of water.

Her skin glows. And the dry feeling in her face disappears. At that point I knew poor eating habits were to blame. And as it turned out her diet consisted mainly of fast food.

You see unhealthy eating increases toxins. And toxins damage the skin cells when we sweat.  This causes blemishes, acne and sallow skin. 

But water flushes out these toxins.  That is why Cherisse saw improvements after drinking a lot of water. So, I suggested that she change her diet. And below are the tips I passed on to her.

A healthy diet consists of fruits and vegetables, fiber and low intakes of salt and sugar. Sugar encourages insulin.  And insulin promotes aging skin.

But fresh fruits and vegetables are great sources of antioxidants. Antioxidants such as beta carotene, vitamin C and A, selenium and zinc.  And they can be found in carrots, broccoli, berries and citrus fruits.

Including these in your diet enhances the appearance and elasticity of the skin.  In other words they decrease the signs of aging. And promote clean, youthful skin.

Apples also cleanse and stimulate the liver. This is a good thing because the liver also gets rid of toxins.   

Drinking a glass of warm water with fresh lemon juice also gets rid of toxins. In fact this practice is called detoxification. And it is a great tool in skincare.

Finally, garlic, olive oil, wheat germ, almonds and fish are also beneficial to the skin. They are good sources of vitamins, essential fatty acids and zinc. These vitamins and minerals promote skin repair and elasticity. This makes them appropriate for acne and wrinkles.

Well, Cherisse improved her skin by altering her diet.  And now she feels more comfortable and confident. Plus she was able to cut back on facial product expenses.

So this brings us back to my earlier point. A healthy diet is one way to achieve beautiful skin.
