LIVE Green Juice 101–(for Cleansing or Detox)
March 24th, 2010 | 
Author: 
A great way to start a healthier new year… drink Green Juice! With a handful of organic greens and basic vegetables, we make fresh juice within minutes. All you need is a juicer and you’ll be ready to begin feeling great… drink it first thing in the morning, or detox with a Juice Fast / Feast.
QUICK TIP: ( I forgot to mention) to help with clean-up, line your pulp receptacle with a clear produce bag from the grocery store.
________
Here’s the recipe (everything is organic):
The Base:
• 2 celery stalks
• 1/2 large cucumber
• 1/2 peeled lemon (leave on white pith)
• 1/2 apple (you can add more to sweeten)
• Ginger (thumbnail size)
Leafy Greens (use what ever is available & organic):
• 1/2 bunch of cilantro
• Handful baby spinach
• 5 baby Dinosaur Kale Leaves
• Green Chard (1 large leaf)
________
…and here’s what I did during my 10 day juice feast/fast:
a.m.
Drink 1/2 Lemon with warm water
Dry Brush before Shower

Sorry, for not thinking global LOL!… I almost wonder if NON-organic fruits and vegetables are as dangerous in Europe? All my information is based on the USA, which uses tons of pesticides. I once worked with a Swedish girl who got terrible rashes on her face from eating our fruit, she got a horrible reaction to the pesticides, her system couldn’t take it.

Another option is… Do you have a yard? If so, maybe you can growing your own? Here’s my favorite gardening blog, by Margaret Roach (formally the editor of Martha Stewart Living, she has the most beautiful garden too!)

I can’t get my hands on organic vegetables….so it is better to eat cheeseburgers instead?
I can’t believe non-organic is that unhealthy….
Cooked meals or McDonalds will be much worse, no?

Juicing with …
Juicing with organic fruits & veggies are important because juicing brings out the juice and unfortunately, when using non-organic ingredients, you are also getting the pesticides and other chemical residue in much higher concentrations, than if you were just eating it. Eat your non-organic vegetables… don’t juice them.
The Environmental …
The Environmental Working Group (EWG)’s explain further about the dangers of pesticides, which fruits & veggies are the most contaminated, “The Dirty Dozen” and which are safe to eat non-organic, “the Clean 15″… using the Guide to make choices that lower pesticide exposure in your diet.
Thank you for …
Thank you for Sharing your vid. I’ve seen ppl use the pulp for making crackers in the dehydrator — esp. since you’ve used those delicious organic veggies. I’m with StarFlower — I don’t have all those wonderful organics avail and would use that as an excuse to not eat better — but I figure my body is benefitting from juicing versus not juicing. I will definite use the screen to get less foam. Thanks for the tip.
I tell myself that …
I tell myself that any veg, even NONorg is WAY better than say processed Lean Cuisine, Amys frozen meals, drivethru Subway, Arby’s and of course that other place: McD. ALL which I could easily eat instead. I would so use that organic excuse all the time as a reason for NOT having juices!
I believe the bads of the processed foods outweigh the bads of the NONorganic produce and therefore I still get a benefit from ALL the produce I use regardless of it being organic or not.Just MY opinion.
Personally, if I …
Personally, if I have an organic lemon – I include the peel.
That’s a neat idea using the screen to catch some of that foam – I’ll try that!
Thank you for sharing your juicing video. I struggle with “making myself” juice (my bad!), so I enjoy all the inspiring videos I can watch!
