Delicious juicing recipes

Raw foods are important for everyone to consume every day.  A great way to get in all the fruits and vegetables you need is juicing. Read on for tasty juice recipes!

Always use organic produce whenever possible. Wash your fruits and vegetables. Drink slowly, remember to “chew” slosh the juice with your saliva for healthy digestion.

The ounces are the amount of juice extracted from the vegetable.

Carrot Juice (The King of Juices)

Wash 4-5 carrots and juice.
Carrot juice supplies a high amount of pro-vitamin A, which the body converts to Vitamin A; vitamins B,C,D,E, and K, minerals, calcium, phosphorous, sodium, and trace minerals. This juice benefits intestinal walls, bones, teeth, skin, hair, nails and with regular use, cleanses the liver by helping to release stale bile and excess fats.
