Juice it up!

​I purchased my first juicer a few months ago and use it almost everyday. Juicing has many known benefits and I felt it was time for me to do this on my own, as opposed to spend lots of dollars purchasing fresh pressed juices.

​Like anything else, variety is the key! So don’t be afraid to be creative and try different combinations of ingredients.

Aim for organic produce as much as possible and chew your juice! That’s right! Take a sip; swoosh the juice in your mouth until the sugars develop and then swallow. This way, you won’t be missing out on the very important initial step of the digestive process, and your body will be able to absorb all of the nutrients your juice has to offer.  

Today's juice:
½ a yellow beet
1 apple
½ a lemon
3 celery sticks
6 frozen grapes

Using a juicer, press the ingredients, sip and enjoy!
