Immune Boosting Carrot, Apple and Ginger
Ingredients:
- 8 Medium Carrots
- 2 Apples
- Slice of root Ginger (to taste)
Carrot, Apple & Ginger is a delicious introduction to veggie juices and anyone who’s new to juicing will be pleasantly surprised by its natural sweetness. Carrots are rich in Vitamin A and Beta Carotenes which are believed to help the body’s natural defences. Ginger – like the pectin in apples – is an excellent digestive tonic and balances this sweet juice perfectly with a little spice!
Super Greens
Ingredients:
- 3 handfuls of Spinach
- 3 sticks of Celery
- 1 apple (Braeburns juice well)
- Half a Cucumber
- Wedge of Lime
Green juices are renowned for being highly nutritious with their complex array of phytonutrients and are becoming increasingly popular amongst health enthusiasts. Spinach and apple are perfectly matched, with the apple’s high vitamin C content assisting with the absorption of iron from the spinach. Celery has a calming effect on the body and cucumber is a natural diuretic. Add the lime for a bit of zing!
Wheatgrass Zinger
Ingredients:
- 1oz fresh wheatgrass juice
- 1 apple
- ½ a Lemon
- Slice of Ginger (to taste)
A Wheatgrass Zinger provides an excellent introduction to wheatgrass and may be preferable for those who aren’t too keen on the intensity of straight wheatgrass juice!
Simply juice the wheatgrass followed by the remaining ingredients. Sip it slowly and enjoy!
