This week, I needed some vitamins and a little detox. I've been having some weird muscle inflammation around my jaw, so I am hoping some good old fashioned nutrients will solve the problem.
Fingers crossed.
Juicing has become one of my favorite rituals when I can tell my body is in need of some nutrients. It's definitely a process - rinse and wash the vegetables, put them through the juicer, can the juice, and wash the juicer (ugh. my least favorite part of anything ever).
If you don't have a juicer, don't fret. You can make this in a high powered blender. Blend all of the ingredients together, using a tamper to push things down. Add a bit of water if you need to, but it will slightly dilute the flavor. Once you're done, either drink it as a smoothie (if you're doing it this way, be sure to remove the apple cores) or filter through cheesecloth or a fine mesh strainer.

When I began my green drink, It tasted awful to me from the get go. At that point, somebody let me know that when your physique is greatly acidic it does not tastes great until your physique comes to be more alkaline. Actually, it happened to be the situation for me and Green energy drinks began to taste a little better.
