Eat Your Beverages #1

Lately I started Eating My Beverages! And does it feel great or what :) 

The importance of vegetables and fruits is not unknown. Eating recommended fruit servings daily is still doable but most of use are not able to do justice when it comes to recommended vegetable servings. Another known fact is importance of raw vegetables for a healthy body. But there are only certain vegetables you can eat raw. So the solution - Vegetable Juicing

Here Under 'Eat Your Beverages' I will post my raw food juice recipes. 

I do not buy 3/5 days detoxify plans as I think our body knows how to clean itself every night when we sleep. Its designed to do that. And instead of going on a few days detoxify plans, why not put in good clean things in the body everyday, so it removes toxins regularly. After all, you are what you eat. Before vegetable juicing I had to make conscious efforts to eat clean foods for my health. And being so careful all the time might not pan out well. But now after trying out vegetable juicing, life is so much easier. 

The thought of greens, squash, broccoli in my juice completely threw me off. But I found the trick :) Add a strong citrus fruit to the recipe and the juice just tastes of the fruit...Nothing more. All you need is a good blender and then follow your mind

Recipe #1

1/2 cup cabbage    

1/2 cup spinach

1 tomato halved

1 large orange

8-10 baby carrots

salt to taste

1 cup water

Mix everything well and that is it :) I do not strain my juice to get all the good fiber too.

It is recommended to have your juice fresh or latest withing 2 hrs of making. Also try to remain away from these juices post late afternoon.
