5 Foods to Avoid Juicing for Better Blood Sugar Control

Juicing can be a great way to get a dose of vitamins and minerals, but some foods are better consumed whole to reap their nutritional benefits. When juiced, these foods lose their dietary fiber, causing a rapid spike in blood sugar levels.

Foods to Avoid Juicing:

Oranges: Juicing oranges strips away fiber, leaving only a sugary liquid. It's best to eat them whole.

Pineapple: While pineapple aids digestion, juicing it concentrates sugar and loses fiber.

Apples: Juicing apples can cause inflammation and diabetes rather than providing health benefits.

Beneficial Additions:

Ginger: Balances sugar levels, reduces inflammation, and supports digestion.

Turmeric and Bottle Gourd: Healing for your gut, making them great juice additions.

Hair Growth Tip:

A nourishing blend of cucumber, curry leaves, and mint juice can promote hair growth.
