Why drinking veggies is good for you

 

The Benefits of drinking veggies compared to eating them.


In todays society we often just bite and don’t properly chew our food. Many people don’t know, that by chewing our food at least 30 times, we give the stomach a chance to also absorb nutrients from what we eat. Mostly our body receives big chunks of food which are not well digested and therefore nutritious food only passes the body without any chance to nourish it. What a shame!

One Smoothie a day can help with this :). High speed Blenders are able to crack open the membranes of veggie cells to release the life force and nutrients. Make sure to drink your Smoothie within 20 Minutes, because after that period, this life force will be gone. “Chew” every sip and mix it well with saliva – your stomach will do a much better job in digesting and absorbing all the energy and nutrients.


Today, we had amazing Smoothies at the Baobab Juice Bar in Corralejo, Fuerteventura.
