ADVICE

Skip Juicing — Keep The Pulp

  • Avoid drinking fruit or mixed juices because they remove fiber and deliver concentrated sugar.
  • Use reverse juicing: discard the juice and keep the pulp to preserve fiber and reduce sugar intake.
ADVICE

Reverse Juice Your Way To Fiber

  • If you own a juicer, try reverse juicing and use the pulp in yogurt, smoothies, or baked goods.
  • Make smoothies that keep fiber intact and ensure they follow Plant Paradox principles.
