Energy Boost Green Juice

This Energy Boost Green Juice is an excellent drink to start the new year full of energy, support your immunity, and help your liver detox after all those holiday feasts.

You can make the green juice as mild or as ‘green’ as you like. The base is apple, cucumber, and celery with lemon or lime. Very invigorating and beneficial for your liver and gallbladder. I like to add a piece of fresh ginger root, which is nice and warming and gives it a spicy flavor. Fresh ginger root also has strong antibacterial properties (try it as a tea to soothe a sore throat, for example).

Then you can choose which leafy greens and/or fresh herbs to add - let your creativity flow. 

Don't have any leafy greens or fresh herbs at home? You can also mix a spoonful of spirulina into the juice for a similar effect. It is very rich in plant-based protein and very powerful at removing heavy metals from your body. It also supports glowing skin and healthy joints.

This green juice is also highly recommended for athletes. It is alkalizing, rich in electrolytes, and has anti-inflammatory properties. Pure hydration and power!

If you can, drink this green juice on an empty stomach or between meals.

Cheers & here's to a happy and healthy New Year!

Energy Boost Green Juice for Glowing Skin, Immunity and Liver Detox

DIRECTIONS:

1. Feed the ingredients one at a time into the slow juicer. Serve the juice as fresh as possible.
2. Don’t have a slow juicer at home? You can use a blender too. Just place all the ingredients in your blender and blend until smooth with a little water to get everything blended.
3. Place a fine-mesh sieve, nut milk bag or cheesecloth over a mixing bowl. Pour the smoothie into the sieve. Use a spoon to press the pulp against the strainer to extract as much juice as possible.

JULIE’S TIPS & TRICKS:

• For the leafy greens, you can add spinach, kale, carrot tops, radish greens, lettuce...
• For the fresh herbs, try parsley, mint, cilantro, basil... whatever you like.
• Did you know that celery consists almost entirely of water and provides lots of nutrients such as phosphorus, iron and zinc? Thanks to its unique combination of mineral salts, amino acids and vitamins, celery has been proven to hydrate our body twice as effectively as a glass of pure water. As little as two or three stalks of this mineral-rich vegetable are needed to effectively rehydrate and rejuvenate our body and skin.
• Lemon or lime add a refreshing touch to this green detox juice and are packed with vitamin C that will support your immune system and help your body’s to better absorb the minerals from the greens.

Do you also enjoy a green juice or smoothie every now and then? Do you like them sweet, tart, or very green?
