* You may wish to dilute your juice 50/50 with water, especially if you are using fruits and the juice is too sweet. Use filtered water, if possible, for dilution.

* Juice that comes from a packet, despite what the label on the packet says, just won't do. Any juice in a carton, can or bottle has been heat treated for preservation.

* Juice has to be prepared fresh and just before consumption! The longer the juice stays out, the less fresh raw food enzymes it will contain. Hence, you either find a store that prepares it right before you drink it or you use a juicer yourself.

* Investing in a good juicer is wise. Good juicers make tastier juices, faster and do a better job in the extraction process. Good juicers also clean up more easily than cheap ones.

* Juices are best drunk in the morning. You are allowing sufficient time for bowel cleansing to take place.

* Always rinse your fruits with filtered water before juicing. It is best to use organic fruits. Since juicing helps in detoxification, you really would not want to use fruits that have been sprayed with pesticides.
