Eating your produce is the best way to get in your necessary fiber and vitamins. But if you don’t like produce or have a hard time getting much of it into your meals, blending is the next best option. Blending insures that you’re still retaining the good of the whole produce with minimal nutrient loss. The juicing process, however, removes nearly all the fiber and destroys 10-20 percent of the antioxidants. Plus, there’s a a fair amount of waste with juicing. If juicing is the only way you’re going to consume produce, so be it. But the more you can eat it whole or blend it, the better.

Regardless of how you consume produce, the sooner you eat it (or drink the harvested juice), the better. Heat, light, and oxygen are the enemy: so the longer you wait, the less you benefit.

As I reached my mid-40s, a lot of stress, very little exercise, and running too many people to the doctor resulted in lots of fast food. I was feeling tired and run down. Jenny Glenn contacted me about a challenge group and I joined. I took baby steps. Jenny was always there to encourage me and guide me and pick me up when I felt I had failed. I am doing much better. Jenny has continued to always be there for me and encourage me.
