Why these fruits are healthier eaten whole, not juiced
Juicing may seem healthy, but some fruits lose their key nutrients and fiber when juiced. Here are 7 fruits you should always eat whole for maximum benefits.Mangoes are loaded with fiber and naturally thick pulp, making them hard to juice efficiently
Avocados are packed with healthy fats and fiber, but they contain very little water, so juicing them is impractical; eating them ensures you get the full benefits of their heart-healthy nutrients.
Juicing berries not only wastes their pulp but also strips away valuable fiber and antioxidants, which are better absorbed when the berries are eaten whole or blended.
Bananas are packed with fiber and potassium, but their naturally creamy, pulpy texture doesn’t release juice effectively. Eating them whole ensures you retain their fiber, which supports digestion and helps maintain a feeling of fullness, as juicing them significantly reduces their fibrous content.
While juicy, peaches lose much of their fiber when juiced, so eating them whole ensures that you benefit from their fiber content, which aids in digestion and blood sugar regulation.
Figs are naturally sweet and rich in fiber, but their thick, seedy texture makes juicing ineffective, so eating them whole helps retain their natural laxative benefits and energy-boosting sugars.
Unlike coconut water, coconut flesh is dense and rich in healthy fats, which don’t juice well, so eating it whole or blending it ensures you receive its full nutritional value, including fiber and lauric acid.
