Its been awhile since my last post and I apologize for that. I'm back at work and I needed to get used to that. But I've still been juicing every day. I ran a 10K yesterday and I feel great. I had no muscle cramping and to day not much soreness. Its awesome.
I bought some cranberries from the coop this weekend. I like to buy new produce and see how I can juice them.
Now keep in mind that I use a 8 cup Vitamix blender. So here are my ingredients.
3 cups of water
1 red apple
2 cup of green grapes
1 cup of cranberries
1 Tbs of lemon juice
1 inch of ginger
1 beet
Cranberries have a lot of vitamin C and beets are a good detox for the kidneys and liver.
You can make this in a regular blender, it may not be a smooth as the Vitamix so you may have to add more water so you get a consistency you can comfortably drink.
This morning I had my usual breakfast for champs protein shake (look at my post titled breakfast for champs). For lunch I made my version of the detox salad because I didn't have all the ingredients.
4 carrots
1 had of cauliflower
1.5 cup of raisins
3 Tbs of lemon juice
1 Tbs of sea weed and sesame seeds
The carrots and cauliflower I put through the processor (my Vitamix does it all) and mixed it all up.
I think I've surpassed my minimum fruits and veggies requirement, how about you?
As always, stay healthy and wise.
