Whether you’re training for your first 5K race, or looking to amp up your Ironman performance, take some clues from the pros! Juicing has shown to provide significant health benefits and provides strong nutritional value from the presence of antioxidants, enzymes and phytonutrients. Great for athletes of all levels and ages!
· Antioxidants protect the body from cellular damage. Juiced fruits and veggies provide antioxidants that can improve strength and stamina.
· Enzymes are present in a variety of raw fruits and vegetables. Juicing retains enzymes that help eliminate toxins in the body for a cleanly fueled system!
