Here is the scenario: you have been partying all night and had a bit too much to drink ...familiar? Now there is next day in the morning and your head is hurting... familiar again? :))) This is the perfect time to make a super energizing green juice, like this one. This super delicious vitamin bomb will keep you awake and you will not need to grab a cup coffee. It will as well help you with hangover, because its very alkalizing and it is full of vitamins!
Of course, you can drink this juice any other day, even if you were at home all night :D
What will you need:
- 5 kale leaves, stems removed
- 1/2 medium cucumber
- appr. 2cm ginger
- 2 handfuls of spinach
- 1 medium sweet apple
- 1/2 lemon
Juice all ingredients in a juicer. Serve in a stylish glass and sip it slowly. Enjoy every ingredient and feel how the juice helps your body to awaken. Drink your juice 15-20 minutes before breakfast on empty stomach, so all nutrients can be absorbed.
Enjoy :)
There have been beautiful sunny days in Switzerland this Autumn.. I love the changing leaves on the trees and the smell of the air ..how do you feel? Do you have the same sunny days at your place?
I have made this iron rich juice this morning, and used the beautiful leaves to take some pictures :) I hope you like them ..
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cucumber
- 2 handfuls of spinach
- 1 beetroot
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 broccoli stem (the part you don't use up for cooking ;)
- 1 pear
Juice all ingredients in a juicer. Run the pulp through the juicer again :)
Enjoy in the morning half an hour before eating anything.
Have a wonderful day :)
A great way to start your day is drinking a big glass of veggie juice like this one. Drinking freshly squeezed juices first thing in the morning provide your body with tons vitamins. Doing this before eating breakfast alkalize the blood, giving you an instant energy. By juicing, the pulp of the veggies and fruits is removed and therefore can be fully absorbed in a very short amount of time (no extra time needed for digestion).
Hint: Wait at least 15-30 minutes
before having any solid food for full benefits.
What will you need:
For one person:
- 3 stalks of cellery
- 2 small beetroots
- 1 cup of spinach
- some ginger (I used around 1cm piece)
- a bunch of mint leaves
Juice all ingredients in a juicer. If you are new to juicing, try first a small amount of ginger. Later, you can increase the amount. I normally take a 1cm to 2cm piece. Depends on how spicy I feel in the morning ;)
You
can run the pulp through your juicer once again. You will get quite a bit more of the juice and won't feel like you are wasting so much veggies...
Please
make sure to buy beautiful organic veggies, so that you don't juice the
chemicals into your morning vitamin bomb.
If you don't have a budget to buy always all organic, here is a very useful table to show which fruits and veggies contain the most of the pesticide and which can be bought non-organic safely.
