Health Benefits

Weight Loss and Prostate Health

This juice recipe is an excellent weight loss juice as it is very low in calories (99), aids digestion and is super hydrating.

Zucchinis have one of the lowest calorie counts in the vegetable world. A single medium-sized zucchini only has around a measly 30 calories, which makes it an ideal choice to reach for if you’re trying to lose extra weight.

Zucchini contains phytonutrients that are important for prostate health as they can help to reduce the symptoms of benign prostatic hypertrophy (BOH).  They also contain powerful anti-inflammatory compounds which can aid asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, and fibromyalgia.

Zucchini is a highly alkaline food that is one of the mildest and easiest vegetables to digest. Zucchini is a great source of vitamin A, C, & B-complex as well as minerals such as iron, zinc, potassium, and manganese.

Happy Juicing!

Preparation

Zucchini

• Cut into chunks or down the middle (depending on your feeding chute)
• Juice with skin on

Cucumber

• Cut into chunks or down the middle (depending on your feeding chute)
• Juice with skin on

Lemon

• Thinly slice off the skin leaving as much white pith as you can
• Juice whole

Method

A quick and easy juice to make.

Start with the cucumbers and the zucchini.

Add the pieces slowly letting the juicer press the pieces through fully without overloading the chute.

Leave the lemon to last. Just drop it in whole.

Tip: Zucchini gets bitter as they grow bigger so avoid any larger zucchini for juicing. Look for firm zucchini without any divots in the skin which come from overhandling.
