Juicing vs Blending: What's Better? - Explained by Dr.Berg

[@troyb4533]

My father was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer. He was told he was going to die and that traditional Western treatments, such as chemo, surgery, ect, would do very little to change that. Yet the doctors still pushed him to receive such treatments. Instead, he Went down to Mexico to the gersen clinic and did the gersen therapy. Adopted a plant based/raw food diet, and 5 years later he was 100% cancer free. Western medicine is good at sewing lacerations, plugging bullet holes, and dealing with traumatic injuries. They are not good at dealing with cancer or chronic diseases.

Clarisa Collins How do you feel about juicing celery? Are there actual benefits or is it a waste to just drink celery juice?

[@Ravyne]

I stopped juicing years ago because it raised my blood sugar so badly. However, if I do a blended salad, no spikes. I use a large bunch of kale or spinach (whichever I have on hand), parsley, bell peppers (all colors), mushrooms, radishes, carrots, celery, tomatoes, jalapeno peppers, onions, cucumbers, garlic, ginger and avocados with a scoop of the Doc's wheatgrass powder, a tbsp of olive oil, a tbsp of MTC oil, and 2 tbsp of Apple Cider Vinegar. Blend it up and drink. Delicious! I have a blended salad for breakfast, a medium sized meal for dinner (usually 3-4 ozs of protein and a large bowl of steamed mixed veggies with butter) and then another blended salad before bed. I've lost weight, improved my A1C and sleep better at night now.

[@ByDesign333]

Sounds Good Thanks! (still alive I trust?) 😄👍

[@1MrErling]

u forgot water?

[@olivtrees8749]

I don't get this. When most people do blending they have to add in a lot of fruit to make it palatable. While if you use a juicer you can make it all veggies and it'll still come out tasting kinda sweet. Not as sweet as orange juice but still sweet, so you don't have to add the fruits to it. So if you have to add fruits to your smoothies just so you can drink it wouldn't that spike your BS more than a juice that's just veggies?

[@cmcnabblss]

Oliv Trees The thing that causes the blood sugar to spike is the fact that with juice there is no fiber to slow down the metabolic process even if they are both liquids. The juice is much more potent to those who struggle with BS spikes because of if. With smoothies you get to keep all the fiber and have a much lower chance of spiking your BS.

[@staceystrukel1917]

I. Suspicious that it raised your blood sugar. Did you eliminate processed sugar and stick to only fresh fruit juice?

[@yamamancha]

-Ginger and lemon and/or lime will make just about any green juice taste good (or at least palatable). Besides, the more you juice, the more you get used to the bitter stuff. -And adding a half an apple, enough to sweeten any recipe, per liter of green juice equates to approx. 10g carbs from the apple. If planned correctly, it's certainly possible to avoid insulin spikes and/or maintain ketosis. -Juice still has the soluble fiber of the fruit and some of the insoluble fiber, especially if you don't strain the juice. Personally, I blend on a daily basis because it's so fast and easy but I prefer juicing. Well-informed, well-planned juicing is the ultimate luxury and the benefits are endless.

[@robertfry6738]

Great video...I have blended for almost 5 years and it is one of the best health related decisions I’ve ever made.

Same, I was freezing fruits not veggies. No benefits it's to preserve them.

[@michaellee888]

@@eltocayo87 Do you blend your frozen fruits and/or veggies to make smoothies? Did you use less ice or no ice as a result? If yes, that could be a side benefit. I don't have to add ice, I just use the frozen berries and/or veggies to make a smoothie. I know right, big benefit. Well, sometimes adding ice dilutes the taste of the smoothie. Just saying. Because the ice dilutes the flavor from the berries, etc. when blending. Not juicing, of course. And when blending, when adding ice, if you don't consume completely, after a certain period of time, the smoothie separates more when I added ice compared to no ice. I haven't juiced. But if juicing can be done on frozen veggies, then the juice will be cold. If that what one wants. I like my smoothies cold. So, same with juicing? But I tried juicing from other people, and it didn't matter if it was cold or not. I haven't seen anyone juiced frozen veggies. So, probably they thaw them first. Correct?

[@ateachableheart2649]

I seem to have a compromised digestive system and for me, juicing helps me get the nutrients I need. I typically try to only use green apples and even then, each batch can have different levels of sugar in them. Tastes test and judge. I never put a whole apple in. Right now I have a bag of organic green apples, smaller than normal. Even so I only use half of it for making 3-4 cups of juice. I have done smoothies but my experience is they need more sugar (bananas). I have substituted plain yogurt in recipes where it calls for Vanilla flavored yogurt (which for the life of me I don't get why anyone would want any flavored yogurt if they are serious about their health). I will buy 2-3 lemons and blend them to a paste, put in an ice cube tray (1 TBSP per cube) and freeze. Then in a freezer bag and take out as needed for cooking.

THANKS, I HAD NO IDEA THERE WAS ANY BENEFIT DIFFERENCE BETWEEN JUICING AND BLENDING. YOU ACTUALLY CLARIFIED THIS FOR ME ON A PREVIOUS VIDEO. THANK YOU AND JESUS CHRIST BLESS YOU.

[@russmaleartist]

Check out the health benefits of using a high-powered blender like the Vitamix. There are many recipes on KZbin for green drinks of various types. The one bad thing about some of the videos is the mixing of the bad with the good and using a powerful blender with the wrong ingredients. It is too easy for people to justify the use of bad ingredients like sugars, etc. when the instrument is “healthy”. People seem to use any method of justifying and legitimizing their bad habits, etc. -- after all, I'm using vegetables and a highly rated blender -- so what, if I am blending the bad with the good, the machine is healthy, so anything coming out of it must be also -- NOT SO FAST. Exercise in general can be good, but over-exercising or doing the right exercises in poor form can literally damage you . . . so can the ingredients being used in these blenders and those propagating good health on KZbin. Compare and be discerning because: actions always brings consequences and ignorance can bring devastating results.

Juicing is really popular today & for good reasons. Here's a tip: When you're cooking up a big pot of greens, don't toss out what may be the most nutritious part - the brothy water that's left in the pot. Lots of the beneficial nutrients cook out of the greens. And what's left behind is called pot liquor or "potlikker." This is what people do when they extract the liquid in juicing vegetables. Pure fiber has no nutrients content. Some people even re-use the juice pulp by making burgers, adding it to smoothies, etc.

[@Vamavid]

The fiber has non-extractable polyphenols.

[@troyb4533]

Most people heat the water to above 120 degrees when cooking veggies. Heat destroys nutrients. Plain and simple. The only way your going to get 100% of the food value is to consume it raw.

I went down the road of juicing 90% of my greens on a keto diet and wound up with chronic pain in my lower abdominals that would come and go. Not cool. Back on the kale highway 6-8 oz per day raw. Wish I watched this video 3 months ago:(

Keep up the good work doc

[@michaelmorris7212]

I was considering going with a juicing diet like Fat Sick and nearly dead. Can I go that route with blended green drinks instead of juices? I’m sure many here will disagree with doing what Joe Cross did. I’m currently 310# and would like to get below 200 by the end of 2018. Thanks in advance!

Michael Morris Green Smoothies Work Well. They Fill You Up. I Add Protein & Peanut-Butter Along With My Fruits & Vegetables

Blended is better because you get the fiber.

[@carmieintegrativenutrition9591]

Love the info!! I believe that's called a smoothie... A shake doesn't have fiber. It liquids being mixed together.

[@ironangel69]

Lol smoothie shake...its all blended so itsall the same

[@jameshighland6769]

Dr Eric Thank you for sharing the knowledge. This is something I have wanted to know - Does juicing preserve the protein in vegetables?

[@ajl8615]

James Highland Of course

Green juice that tastes pretty good: -Celery -Cucumber (low sugar fruit) -Lime I usually use one medium to big cucumber for one nice bunch of celery sticks and a whole lime together. The lime makes it taste good, it's not like an orange juice but it's absolutely drinkable and doesn't spike your insulin and blood sugar as much. The key to juices is that you drink them slowly. Also a side note - the most nutritious part of celery is it's leaves apart from sticks, but sadly you probably won't find those in stores.

[@anonymouse5910]

yes. i noticed that the leaves are often missing now from the celery! :( on another note i recall dr. berg mentioning that eating celery before bed helps sleeplessness!

[@beowolf19751]

Excellent informative video!
