What is better, fresh fruit juice or fresh fruit salad? And why ?

salad ,why because Blending and juicing both disrupt the mechanical structure of plant cells, which increases the accessibility of many micronutrients. Many beneficial micronutrients – carotenoids, polyphenols, and folate for example — are often bound to structural components or large molecules within the plant cell like fiber, proteins, and starches. Processing, heating, and chewing break down these cellular structures to increase the availability of the bound micronutrients; however, many may not be accessible for our absorption by chewing alone. Blending increases our likelihood of absorbing these nutrients. Importantly, the micronutrients that are bound to fiber within the plant cell may be removed with the fiber by juicing and therefore be more available via blending than juicing

Fresh fruit salad is always better because of its fiber content. 

 Fresh Fruit Salad  best from fruit juices

‘Fruit juice isn’t the same as intact fruit and it has got as much sugar as many classical sugar drinks. It is also absorbed very fast

Popkin, a professor of nutrition at the University of North Carolina, told the Guardian that fruit juices and fruit smoothies were ‘the new danger’.

‘Think of eating one orange or two and getting filled. Now think of drinking a smoothie with six oranges and two hours later it does not affect how much you eat. The entire literature shows that we feel full from drinking beverages like smoothies but it does not affect our overall food intake, whereas eating an orange does,’ .

‘So pulped-up smoothies do nothing good for us but do give us the same amount of sugar as four to six oranges or a large coke. It is deceiving,’ .

Mr. Gamal,

Fresh Fruit juice and Fresh fruit salad both are having importance when considered to health.

We can replace the fruit salad by fresh fruit juice in some cases such as easy digestion and GI tract health (surgery cases). 

Then in another point of view, fruit salad will always considered to be best as because its contain skin, seeds, pulp etc.,as all of these rich of vitamins and minerals.

Have you noticed that in most of the websites are healthy fruit mentioned in the world, but does not specifically mention fruit juices as the preferred form of healthy eating. The reason for this is simple: regardless of the fruit and the method used to perform the juice, most of the diversity and usefulness of food comes through the fruit whole.

Fruit is not only delicious and refreshing, but most brands are also excellent sources of certain vitamins and minerals, antioxidants and dietary fiber. Diets rich in fruits is a healthy heart and can reduce the risk of many degenerative diseases. But eating a whole fruit provides more dietary fiber and thus health benefits.

 Health benefits of the fruit peel fruit peel such as grapes, apples, figs, apricots, pears, grapes, peaches, plums, raspberries, strawberries and raisins - are all considered important places for biological activity during the life of the fruit. Veneer is the place where the fruit interacts with the light, and form a variety of colored pigments that absorb different wavelengths of light. These pigments - including flavonoids and carotenoids - are nutrients that protect the health and proper nutrition.

Peel fruit such as grapes actually have the ability to help provide protection from ultraviolet radiation as they help to decrease cancer risk. But when the fruit era, it is not always possible to take advantage of the crust. This is because many of the era operations to remove the crust and does not allow access to the benefits of the juice.

In addition to the benefits of the pulp crust - which is considered the main source of fiber - there are fruit pulp also contains fiber and other foodstuffs as well. Orange juice is considered a good example of the health benefits of the fruit pulp. The white part of the orange pulp also is an important source of flavonoid them.

 And orange juice contain parts colored most of the vitamin C found in orange fruit, and works of vitamin C and flavonoids together and support the health of the body through the joint work. If you removed the white part of the orange pulp during the making of orange juice, flavonoids will be lost during the process of making juice.

This loss is is one of the many reasons leading to eat a whole orange pill even if you want to eat a little bit of the white part in the pulp. Although many commercial products claim to add pulp on their labels, but many of them do not put the natural pulp.

Orange juice reduces the fiber content Do you know how much fiber is lost in the conversion to the entire fruit juice? A glass of apple juice content of others on the pulp contains the amount of non-measurable fiber. To work cup juice contains eight ounces of apple juice you need to nearly four apples. So the cup contains approximately 12 to 15 grams of dietary fiber. Almost all of these grams are lost in the production of juice. 15 grams of lost fiber, if added to the juice, will double the average amount of fiber per day.

Is the juice is healthy? The answer depends on the quality of the food we replace him and how it is consumed. Juice that has been robbed of fiber and a wide range of food is the main source of sugar which lacks nutrients that aid in digestion and metabolism.

 And fruit juice increases blood sugar greater than the same fruit and sugar level which can be obtained from the juice of the highest level which can be obtained from the fruit itself quickly.

 In addition, a lot of fruit juices sold contain only a small percentage of real juice and containing sweeteners added.
