Is green juice really good for you?

Drinking green juice daily is one of the BEST things you can do for your health because green vegetable juices are the optimal food for cleansing, purifying, and healing your body.

Green juice contains chlorophyll (the blood of plants) and is remarkably similar to our own blood (haemoglobin).

Chlorophyll has a lot of enzymes that will cleanse the blood and enhance the blood’s ability to transport more oxygen through other parts of the body.

I prefer taking chlorophyll from food, not supplements, as foods contains more than chlorophyll. Plant-based whole foods are rich in antioxidants, polyphenols, vitamins, and minerals, enzymes, and living waters to enhance your health and well-being.

How do you make green juice?

Using your cold press juicer start with a base juice from a vegetable that has a high water content like celery, cucumber or zucchini.

Then add your leafy green vegetables like kale, silver beet, chard or spinach.

Finish the juice with some green apple and add a slice or two of lemon.

In a cold press juicer you can also get a lot of juice and flavour from herbs such as parsley, mint, coriander and basil. You can also juice wheatgrass in a good cold press juicer like the Kuvings Professional range.
