You may also be missing some of the nutrients contained in the fibre of the fruits and vegetables.
As a result you end up consuming quite a large amount of sugar and not much fibre.
The other thing missing is the chewing action which creates more saliva and also stimulates the secretion of Leptin which tells your body that your satisfied.
NutriBullet
The difference between the NutriBullet and a traditional juicer is that the NutriBullet breaks down the fibre but doesn’t remove the fibre so you can now get a variety of flavours from different fruits and vegetables without losing the fibre.
This means that all vitamins and minerals are now easily consumed and the fibre is also more easily consumed.
The only thing missing is the chewing action which creates more saliva and also stimulates the secretion of Leptin which tells your body that your satisfied.
Whole Fruits and Vegetables
Whole fruits and vegetables unlike juices from a juice maker or NutriBullet require chewing.
Unlike the NutriBullet it takes longer to consume Fruits and vegetables. When you eat you secrete Leptin that signals to the brain that a feeling of fullness and content Or satiety.
Chewing also produces saliva which helps break down starches and is the beginning of your digestion Process.
It would also take a much larger time to consume the same amount of whole fruits and vegetables than it does any juices and it is easier to overconsume juices than whole Fruits and vegetables.
Fibre
Fibre is necessary for more than just cleaning out the lower intestine. Fibre is important for reducing your cholesterol. Getting enough fibre is important.
