Finally Paris has a true Juice Bar; a juice bar that knows about its business…read more
When it comes to find a true and healthy detox program in Paris, this is the spot!
Only processing True Organic vegetables and fruits, cold pressing everything to order, working with a local apiculture farm from Montmartre, "Juice it!" has it all right!!!
Their various nut milks are delicious, and that pollen, when added to these milks is just pure heaven.
Every juice bar in Paris, and trust me there isn't that many yet, systematically load their juices, even the green ones with way to many fruits, aka SUGAR!!!
"Juice It!" however offers two delicious green juices that are made with only vegetables, NOTHING else!!!
When you truly want to seriously detox, Green juices without the fructose of these added fruits is the way to go. Indeed, without these fruit juices, the glycemic index and especially the glycemic load coming from vegetable juices is much lower, which in the end is much healthier!!!
Juice it! is still very new in town, their product line is being fine tuned. I truly hope they will come to speed with Green Smoothies, a great way to intake liquid veggies along with its fiber when not on a "Juicing Detox".
I personally Juice only if I fast, otherwise, I only allow myself to drink occasional smoothies where the fibers are still being part of the juice. This is the only way to benefit from a low sugar absorption. ; in Smoothies I actually allow small amounts of fruits, which I refuse to add into my my Juices.
WIthout over extending, and abusing of your time, my philosophy is that Juicing is made for putting your stomach to a complete rest while still feeding the body with essential enzymes, micro-nutriments, and vitamins. Indeed, after more or less 20 minutes, all nutriments are absorbed without soliciting the stomach. However the process, forces you to intake high glycemic juices, therefore justifying the goal of lightning the glycemic load by exclusively juicing from vegetables.
Smoothies in the contrary, feeds your body with the same benefits, yet putting your stomach to contribution as it needs to digest all the fibers. This process guaranties that you are getting the whole fruits, and whole vegetables at a much lower speed of absorption, resulting in the equivalence of lower glycemic loads and indexes. This indeed is whats grants the acceptable condition for addition of whole fruits. Smoothies are also a great way to finish a detox as the fibers within that Smoothies will flush all of the toxins that have been loosen within the system, from that Juicing Fast.
I say this, I say nothing, but that's my philosophy as someone that consistently eats healthy, consistently being 90% of the time ;-)
