Although he passed away at the start of 2011, Jack LaLanne lived a full life of 96 years and was strong and vibrant until the very end. What was his secret? Well, according to him, he was a juicer -- a person who drinks concoctions made up of fresh fruits and veggies. Anyway, learn about some of the tips in the article below.

Have you ever been happy to be sick? I haven't either, but a case of bronchitis can be aided by some tasty juices which will make you a lot happier than any medicine that you'd be prescribed! Try grape, lemon, onion, and orange juice to soothe the pain and help kill off the nasty germs that are making you sick.

There is no harm in juicing more than once a day as long as you're not just filling up on fruit juices. Fruit can be full of calories and sugar, so stick to vegetables as much as possible instead. If you want to add some sweetness to your veggie juice, try beets!

Before you randomly go pick your produce that you want to put through your juicer, you should make sure you are getting the best quality fruits and vegetables that you can. If your fruits and vegetables aren't of good quality, you won't be getting the best nutrition that you could be.

Consider using a food saver to remove all the excess air from your juice before storing it. This will allow your juice to keep its maximum nutritional content. It also allows for a longer shelf life, reducing spoilage and waste. If a food saver is not available, you can also use air tight jars.

You may have seen Mr. LaLanne on a late-night infomercial and wondered if he was really serious about juicing or if he was just trying to sell a product. Well, juicing is most certainly a legitimate thing, and these tips have just shed some light on how you can borrow some of Jack's passion to lead a healthier lifestyle.
