Posted April 9th, 2012

Best Fruit Juicer for juicing Berries and CherriesBerries and cherries are loved by most, if not all people of all ages. The temperatures are heating up enough to find plentiful berries and cherries at your farmers market, grocer, or even in your own backyard. Juicing berries and cherries will bring a beautiful color to your juice and will also add a sweet flavor. Depending on what you are juicing, you can likely use numerous berries and cherries for different health purposes in your juice diet. 

Blueberries are a superfood and a handful can be easily added to any juicing recipe. Blueberries are ranked number one in antioxidants by the USDA and bring amazing brain protection. Blueberries can also be juiced to help many different inflammatory conditions such as arthritis. Blueberry juicing recipes will surely be high in vitamin C, E, and fiber.

Juicer recipes containing cherry juice are going to be rich in queritrin, which is an anti-cancer agent. Cherry juice will also be high in concentrations of anthocyanins and bioflavonoids which help relieve symptoms of gout, arthritis, and migraines. Cherries are only found for a few months during the year, so get them while you can.

Goji berries are becoming more popular since their cancer prevention properties have been proven. Adding goji berries to your juicer recipe will increase your intake of vitamin A, B2, B6, and E, as well as beta carotene.
