Weight is a huge burden on people who have had to resort to exercise as their hope.
The number of people who are above their ideal weight has increased substantially since 1980.
In 2016, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimated that 52% of adults were classified as being above their ideal weight.

Exercise only cannot make you lose weight. So, let no one deceive you about that.
Have you taken time to observe people who exercise often and the amount of food they consume? In short, if you do, you will be amazed.
Of a truth, exercise draws your energy and food is largely the means of replenishing such energy.
Kate had resorted to exercise in her weight loss quest, but had maintained her eating habit.
In fact, she had increased the amount of food she eats, because she felt hungrier than she used to.
Sadly, each time she stood on her scale, she wondered whether she was on a weight-gain routine.
From her exercise routine she could burn 50 calories and get 80 from the food she eats daily.
However, when she found these juices that we are about to introduce to you, her weight loss desires became a reality.
Fresh Weight Loss Juices
Weight loss juices are great liquids that our body needs.
But when it is not natural (sweetened with sugar), it becomes counter-effective for a weight loss goal.
Therefore, we are not talking about the juice you buy in super malls. We are talking about the ones you can make at home and take.
Interestingly, the natural plants (herbs), seeds, fruits and grains are what man was made to eat.
But ‘sweet-mouth’ or sweet-tooth has dragged many to a size that has become nearly impossible to lose. You can lose any weight if you so desire.
Herbs, vegetables are great sources of nutrients that your body needs and relying on them for nutrients and your weight control is a wise decision.
Please, note that we are not asking you to go on a juice or liquid-only diet, but these juices when added to your meal will do a lot.

Vegetable Juice
Before we list the vegetables to juice at home, we will love to highlight why this juice works.
Vegetable juice contains vitamin B, C, E, K and beta carotene, calcium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium and many other minerals.
A 2018 study stressed that increased vegetable intake is associated with a reduced risk of weight gain and being above your ideal weight (Odds ratios (ORs) ranged from 0.18 to 0.88) in other studies.
When you consume vegetable juice, it powers up the liver to extract toxins from your body and prepare them for removal.
Noteworthy is the fact that vegetable juice helps the liver remove stale bile and fats from itself.
These fats contribute to high cholesterol.
Meanwhile, the best result is gotten from a combination of different vegetables.
Because each of them is rich in a particular nutrient, they each bring different nutrients.
So, a good combination of weight loss juices from vegetables that you can explore are carrot, cucumber, local spinach (water leaf in small amount) and cabbage (white or purple).
Note that water leaf has the tendency of also hindering the absorption of other nutrients in the body.
Other vegetables you can try are celery, mint leaf, scent leaf, beetroot ginger, kale, broccoli and many others.
