Cool. But it's not magic, and it's simply just a calorie reduction. That's it. There's no magic about it being in "juice form".
I had to laugh that someone in here went to their doctor and basically cleared it with them that they were going to start taking in larger amounts of fruits and vegetables. Well, no shit the doctor gave it an ok. It has zero to do with "juice" and 100% to do with what you are actually taking in and the caloric load of it, regardless of it's physical state.
You could also burn it off by chewing gum all day at work.

Exactly, it's about doubling and even tripling the intact of raw fruit and vegetable. Juicing offers myself and others an easy an effective way of doing this while still being pretty active with daily activities.

Do you not see the benefit of getting multiple different fruits and vegetables in your tummy all at once, quick and easy? Even those that are really good for you but you hate, but are masked by the other things you throw in the shake?

Not really(from a purely weight loss perspective), because I can lose the same amount of weight by eating twinkies in the proper caloric ratio.

Cool story. All you're doing(from a weight loss angle) is cutting calories. Nothing more. Nothing less. You could do the same thing by pureeing a pancake.

That's fair enough, I'm coming from purely a nutritional perspective.

I don't think they are talking strictly from a weight loss angle. Are fruits and vegetables good for you? Yes. Is juicing an effective way to consume more fruits and vegetables? Also yes. Most people don't get enough in their diet and it's a fairly easy and efficient way to do it. End of story.
The only objection I have to this whole thing, is the documentary referenced at the very beginning. That dude tries to frame juicing like some kind of magical panacea. From what I remember anyways...I watched it a long time ago.

Well, it CAN be pretty magical. Think about all of the enzymes you get from raw fruits/veggies. Those enzymes can do the digestive work, freeing up your liver and kidneys to detoxification effort. That's what makes juice fasting so beneficial.

I guess only one scientific perspective can be valid? I picked the wrong one?

Oh I agree, it's purely a convenience thing. But being that easy to consume a high volume of fruits and veggies is likely to make lazy people like me do it more often.
