- Juices Vs Smoothies: Which One Is Better?
JUICES
Juicing is when you put fruits and vegetables through a juicer (show juicer) and almost all of the fibre is removed. (show pouring) I think it’s important to note that it’s a myth that all of the fibre is removed via juicing.
There are 2 main types of fibre in fruits and vegetables - insoluble and soluble. Insoluble fibre adds bulk to our stools, it helps fill us up and speeds the food up through our digestive tract. Most of the insoluble fibre is removed during juicing although it is still present in small amounts. Soluble fibre absorbs water like a sponge, providing bulking matter which acts as a prebiotic to support good bacterial growth. Soluble fibre includes pectins, gums and mucilage which is still present in the juice.
Many people find that incorporating juicing actually improves their digestion and bowel movements due to the soluble fibre in the juice combined with the extra nutrients and hydration. Of course, having all the fibre intact is beneficial, but there are also benefits to removing it too. This is because when it is removed you get a denser and more concentrated form of nutrients which are easily assimilated by the body due to it being liquid. Insoluble fibre slows down the absorption of micronutrients, so juicing is fast-tracking your nutrient intake. This is especially beneficial when someone is trying to heal, as their body’s ability to absorb nutrients and digest food is effected.
(show drinking) Freshly squeezed juices restore and rejuvenate the body and nourish it on a cellular level. Most people simply don’t eat enough fruits and vegetables in their daily diet. Juicing allows you to massively increase your intake of these plant foods which otherwise might be hard eating them whole or in a smoothie.
Could you imagine sitting down to eat 6 leaves of kale, 2 celery sticks, 1 cucumber, 1 lemon and 2 apples? For some that might be appealing, but to most, probably not.
It is true that some nutrients are lost via the pulp, but a large percentage still remains and the benefits of juicing highly outweigh that small negative. I personally LOVE juices because they are so healing, therapeutic and restorative.
SMOOTHIES
Smoothies are made in a blender (show blending) and consist of the entire fruit and vegetables, skin and all, blended into a liquid drink. (show pouring) They contain all of the fibre, creating a slow release of nutrients and tend to be more filling.
Although not as easily digested as juices, they are still quite easily assimilated, as the fruits and vegetables are pre-digested (fibres are pulled apart) during the blending process. This is fantastic because people tend to not chew their food properly, so by drinking smoothies you absorb the nutrients so much better.
In conclusion, I believe juices and smoothies both have an essential place in a healthy diet. They each have incredible benefits, and using them in combination will help you to increase your nutrient intake and experience healing, rejuvenation and increased energy levels.

Do you prefer to drink juices or smoothies? Or are you like me and incorporate both? 😊

Yes I completely agree that you must always drink organic juice - very good point! Thank you :)
Olivia Budgen you seem so professional yet your channel has quite few subscribers compared to other channels with the same quality videos... You really do need more subs...
Thank you Caroline
I love your accent. It's so much nicer on the ear than my westcoast Scottish ramblings ❤👍🏻🏴
Hehe thank you! :)
You explained both, but you didn't really give reasons why any of the two is superior over the other.
I have a blender and a juicer sitting next to each other in the kitchen. While I use the blender daily, the juicer almost isn't used at all. For once: a juicer has more parts and is harder to clean. Apart from that: some things just don't work with a juicer, e.g. I like to include flaxseeds or chiaseed in my smoothies (omega-3 fatty acids, calcium, zink, ion, vitamin E...).
Christian S. that’s because one isn’t superior over the other. They are simply different, and both have amazing benefits 😊
I think cleaning the juicer after every use is probably the biggest turn off for me ... but I’ll have a smoothie if I want to get full and use it as a meal ... and I’ll juice when I want to skip a meal but still get something healthy in me ...
im a 24 year old male and I just want to say I love your channel I need to show my wife. Your videos are well filmed and your content is produced professionally. Great page!
Azure Tides thank you so much that means a lot to hear 🙏🏻😊
She is a fresh-looking girl! A high fruit and vegetable diet will do that.
I just put braces today and this video shows up when I searched for smoothie lol!
Feliks Dzerzhinskij 😋☺️🥰
Great informative video! I just subscribed. I tend to make smoothies more often than juices but only because it is quicker and cheaper since I use less produce in smoothies. When I have an abundance of produce or when produce is beginning to be over ripened I juice.
Thanks for subscribing Robyn :) yes smoothies are definitely quicker and cheaper to make! Glad you incorporate both into your life though xx
Love your accent! Cheers from the USA!
Jack Neals hehe thanks 😁
Her secret isn’t fruit and veg, it’s living in Australia..it’s a different world!
Great explanation, thanks for sharing your knowledge and experiences! Totally agree regarding the equipment:)

do you take b12 supplements and do you get your bloods checked often to see if this diet is not making you deficient in anything? x
Yes I do take a Vitamin B12 supplement. I am actually making a video next week all about supplements 😊 and yes I do get my bloods tested every 6 months - they are all fine x
