Health Start: Embracing Vitality Through Nutritious Beverages in the Fresh Beginning
In the health-focused communities of the Washington D.C. area, cold-pressed juices have become a popular choice for those seeking a quick and nutritious boost. These juices, available at various cafes and bistros, offer a variety of flavours and health benefits.
One such cafe is Ease Yoga & Cafe, located in Del Ray. The establishment offers cold-pressed juices from South Block, a locally owned micro-juicery based in Falls Church. The most-ordered juices at Ease Yoga & Cafe are the Cleanse and Cure juices. The Cleanse juices come in various flavours, including Easy Cleanse, while the Cure juice contains pineapple, carrot, lemon, cayenne, turmeric, ginger, and activated charcoal.
Another option is the Grateful Juice juices, available at Junction Bakery & Bistro, owned by Kimberly Landini.
At Del Ray's Ease Yoga, one half-cup (4 ounces) of cold-pressed juice is considered the equivalent of a single serving of fruits or vegetables. This makes it a convenient way to meet the recommended daily intake of at least three servings of fruit and four servings of vegetables. However, it's always best to consume whole food whenever possible, as juice is not as high in fiber.
Cold-pressed juice is often consumed before workouts or as a post-workout treat at Ease Yoga & Cafe. The process of cold-pressing juice involves bottling, sealing, and applying a crushing amount of pressure to inactivate pathogens, ensuring that the juice stays fresh and vibrant longer than if juiced the old-fashioned way.
MOM's Organic Market provides the same juices as their Naked Lunch cafe in Arlington. Other establishments offering juice include Killer ESP in Old Town Alexandria. South Block delivers fresh-squeezed cold-pressed juices six days a week.
The Renew juice, containing carrot, apple, beet, kale, lemon, and ginger, is another popular option. For those with a sweet tooth, The Caveman Mylk juice, made with cashews, water, vanilla, cinnamon, dates, and pink Himalayan sea salt, is a delicious alternative.
According to the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, diets higher in fiber are beneficial for protecting against a number of cancers and chronic illnesses. Maintaining a healthy weight is another way to ward off cancer. Cold-pressed juices can be a part of a balanced diet, but it's important to remember that whole foods should always be the primary source of nutrients.
In conclusion, cold-pressed juices are a trendy and convenient way to add more fruits and vegetables to your diet. Whether you're looking for a quick post-workout snack or a nutritious addition to your meals, these juices offer a variety of flavours and health benefits. Just remember to consume them in moderation and prioritise whole foods whenever possible.
