GREEN JUICE!!!

One thing that we do everyday is juicing! Very often its green juices but sometimes, red or orange.

In the beginning, we used apples/pears together with the greens because it had a sweeter taste and was easier to drinks as a beginner. But, then I realized that it is better to learn to drink it without any sweets - we feel like we wanted to drink just pure green juices. So, I found out that to get best nutrition, wen consuming green juices, especially if it has spinach in it - you should add some lemon. By adding a lemon you don't feel that "strange bitter" taste, and you get more nutritions by that combination. Of course everything depends on what greens you are using in your juice... sometimes I do´t use lemon at all. After a while you get used to delicious green taste!  :-)

Why should you drink green juice?
One glass of green juice balances your pH and gives you a direct shot of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, protein and most of all oxygen which acts as an antiseptic and metabolism regulator. It is rich in chlorophyll which is a key component of life-force energy. It is known that chlorophyll is a therapeutic tonic for a wide range of illnesses and diseases.

Below is one example of green juice which I made the other day:

Ingredients are: wheat-grass, spinach, celery, cabbage, fennel, parsley & lemon





Even my daughter drinks green juice, (not everyday but almost). Its
not her most favorite one but she drinks it up with a little persuasion!  Her favorite one is carrot, orange, ginger and turmeric.
