Green Juice Recipe

Posted Jan 12 2012 4:49pm

I wanted to post the green juice recipe I have been doing daily.  I feel it has really been a factor in healing my body.  When I first started I could literally feel it going into my muscles.  I think "it" specifically was the ginger.  My muscles would tingle and get warm, my entire body would flush.  My husband said he could feel things "firing" in his brain.  In a good way, like things had been connecting that maybe hadn't connected or worked in a while.  We both felt it the other day.  Felt a buzz, but not like an alcohol buzz.  An actually buzzing feeling.

GREEN JUICE RECIPE
(Choose all organic whenever possible.  The only thing I will slide on is lime because I peel it first.  The most important would be celery & cucumber.  If you can't get organic, don't get it at all.)  Do not peel anything except the lime. Parsley, celery, apple, lime, cucumber & ginger in the middle.  Kale is missing this day.


1 granny smith apple 1 cucumber 1 lime (peeled by knife) 1/3 bunch of kale and/or 1/3 bunch of red leaf lettuce 1/3 bunch of parsley 3 celery pieces (leaves included) 1 chunk 'o ginger (about 2 in piece - I no longer peel this, just wash it)
Sometimes I will do spinach (MUST be organic) in place of the lettuce or kale.
Depending on your juicer, this should get you about 16 ounces of juice.  I just upgraded my juicer and got 28 ounces in the photo above.  Stir it and drink it right away.  It starts to oxidize and lose it's goodness within 30 minutes.  






I had been using a Jack LaLane Juicer prior and it worked fine but since I am a daily juicer and felt I was wasting produce, I upgraded to the Hurom.  It is a different type of juicer.  The Jack LeLane is a centrifuge juicer and it spins around and grinds/shreds the food.  The Hurom is a masticating juicer and it squeezes and presses the juice reserving more enzymes.  The clean up is a lot easy since I upgraded as well.  Regardless, I find juicing to be therapeutic.  Stick with it.  Make it a part of your every day.  You'll see changes in your skin, eyes, energy, etc.  I buy my produce every 3 days.

An FYI:  Carrots and beets have a LOT of sugar so I don't use them.
