Last week I promised to share a couple of my favorite juicing recipes so here they are.

The Dragon

1 medium orange, peeled and quartered

3 kale leaves

1 medium apple, cut in wedges

1 medium carrot

1 large beet, cut in wedges

1″ piece of ginger

Enough water or apple juice so that the Vitamix and do it’s thing. Some people like ice but I don;t. Ice slows down digestion and that is not my goal. Drink it while it is fresh so all of the nutrients and enzymes are at their peak.

This is a great blood cleanser

Old Reliable

1 medium orange, peeled and quartered

1 wedge of lemon, squeezed

2 medium apple, cut in wedges

1″ piece of ginger

2 dates

Enough water or apple juice so that the Vitamix and do it’s thing. Some people like ice but I don;t. Ice slows down digestion and that is not my goal. Drink it while it is fresh so all of the nutrients and enzymes are at their peak.

A yummy and healthy treat for a mid-day sweet treat.

Cooling Smoothie

6 strawberries

1 large cucumber, peeled and cut in to chunks

1 large apple, cut in to wedges

1 small carrot

1/2 stick celery

1 sprig basil

Enough water or apple juice so that the Vitamix and do it’s thing. Some people like ice but I don;t. Ice slows down digestion and that is not my goal. Drink it while it is fresh so all of the nutrients and enzymes are at their peak.

This smoothie can be very good for bringing heat downward, out of the head.
