Drink up! Cheers to going green...


Want to "go raw"? Want to lose weight? Want to feel better? Want more energy? This is the best way to do it. Drink yourself to good health. Here's my green juice. I try to juice 4-5x/week. I wish I could everyday, but time isn't allowing me. Juicing makes me feel amazing, and my son Aiden will drink it too, that is if I don't over do it on the kale and chard. Feel free to modify my recipe, but if you combine them all together, this is the cancer and disease fighting super-drink! Even if you can only do this once per week, it's better than nothing :)

8 stalks of celery

1 bunch kale

1 bunch chard

1 bunch parsley

1 bunch cilantro

2 cups spinach

7 large carrots

2 cucumbers

2 apples (any kind, but Gala or Red Delicious are my favorites)

1 small bunch seedless grapes

The above yields almost 2 liters. You must drink the juice as soon as possible after juicing. The nutrient content decreases as it oxidizes.

I love kale because it is so nutritious. Include a very hydrated veggie to get more fluids such as cucumber or celery. Add something with a little sweetness such as carrot, apple or grapes. Add lemon or lime to give the drink freshness and a tangy taste. Fresh ginger root provides anti-inflammatory properties. Cinnamon will give it some fire and energy.

Have fun, eat more whole raw organic fruits and veggies,

and start juicing today!!!

Drink yourself Green,
