I love Juices

Hey there
Wow, i have been having so much fun with juices lately. Ive been experimenting with them left right and centre!

My faves so far:
1) celery, cucumber, lime and mint
2) carrot, red pepper, ginger, beetroot and apple

1) This is such a cooling and energising juice. Its flavours are subtle yet slightly sweet, so it goes down very well, and will be enjoyed by even the juice skeptics. You get such a massive energy boost with this juice, i recommend you do not drink it after 5pm unless you are planning to workout, otherwise you will be buzzing all night! WARNING- ingredients in this juice are considered to have diuretic properties!

2) A deep red amazing smooth juice that provides a refreshing kick. It is so full of nutrients that it is wise to not drink too much at a time. 1 glass full is enough! The carrot and apple provides a lovely sweet base which perfectly compliments the earthiness and sharpness of the beet and pepper. The ginger adds an after kick which not only screams 'take notice of me' but that also helps aids digestion and helps prevents colds among many other things. Just be aware that Lots of beetroot may have a laxative effect. Again, major energy kick with this one!

I just feel so energized, glowing and completley full of nutriants. I just feel so fucking healthy!

I JUST LOVE VEGETABLE JUICES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Day 10: 100% Raw- My first home made green juice!

Hey!!!!!!!!!!!!
With my FAB new food processor i made a great meal which i had today for lunch (which i really enjoyed), i decided to see what else this food processor could do. I thought 'i LOVE green juices, so I'll try and make one'
So i put in some water, 2 carrots, 2 apples and 2 handfuls of spinach, as well as a thick slice of lemon (with peel taken off)
It was pretty lumpy, not like a smoothie, but i poured the mixture into a sieve and squeezed all the juice out.
So I'm sitting here enjoying my 1st FABULOUS juice (even though it is a bit watered down and has a few little lumps)!!!!!!!!!!

I'm going to try banana ice cream next!!
