Juice Box of the Month: Energising Green Juice

Juice Box of the Month: Energising Green Juice | Organic and Quality Foods

Loaded with nutrients our bodies seek, zucchini can be both nutritious and delicious. Juicing zucchini can add a powerful boost to your daily nutrition.

 

Zucchini (with the skin on) is low in saturated fat and sodium, and very low in cholesterol, making it both a heart-healthy food as well as an excellent weight loss management food.

It is also a good source of Protein, Vitamin A, Thiamine, Niacin, Phosphorus and Copper, and a very good source of Dietary Fibre, Vitamin C, Vitamin K, Riboflavin, Vitamin B6, Folate, Magnesium, Potassium and Manganese.

The juice of zucchini is somewhat bland so you might want to add other vegetables to the mix when you juice them. Fresh made zucchini juice acts as a natural coolant and thirst quencher, replenishing the body with needed fluids. It also acts as an internal cleanser, including for the colon. Here a few recipes to make juicing zucchinis both healthy and delicious:
