Juices and Juicing - Questions and Answers ABOUT FOODS AND CANCER PREVENTION AND SURVIVAL

QUESTION: How do fruit and vegetable juices compare to eating these foods whole?

ANSWER: As a rule of thumb, it’s important to shoot for consuming at least
three servings of fruit and four servings of vegetables every day. Since juice
is not as high in fiber as whole fruit or vegetables, it is always best to consume
the whole food whenever possible. It has been shown that diets higher
in fiber are not only beneficial for protecting against a number of cancers
and chronic illnesses, they also help fill you up so that you don’t “fill out.”
Maintaining a healthy weight helps reduce cancer risk.
For people who don’t enjoy eating lots of fruits and vegetables, juicing
can be a way to bring these nutritious foods into their routine. One-half cup
(4 fluid ounces) of juice can be considered the equivalent of a single serving
of fruits or vegetables. Juice made in a high-powered blender that retains the
fiber in the food is best. Alternatively, use the fibrous end-product that
juicers produce by adding it to salads, soups, stir-fries, or pasta sauces.
