Do you suffer from allergies? Many allergies are connected to digestive ill-health. Many individuals with digestive issues suffer from something called "leaky gut", which is associated with many health problems (allergies, delayed food sensitivities, fibromyalgia, inflammation, chronic fatigue, skin issues...the list goes on!) - improving the health of our gut is one key step to helping ease allergy symptoms.
Just a couple years of raw veganism cleared up my digestive tract, and I literally got rid of two of my nut allergies - coconut and almond. These allergies were incredibly severe to the point of anaphylaxis. Creating a healthy environment in our gut is important!
This juice features turmeric, a wonderful healing root that has anti-inflammatory effects to help activate the cells of our immune system against allergic responses. Parsley is also a great herb which inhibits the release of histamine (the main player in allergic reactions), and thus acts as a natural antihistamine. Vitamin C is another anti-oxidant which acts as an antihistamine, and parsley, apples and lemons are loaded with vitamin C!
- 2 organic green apples
- 1 bunch organic parsley
- 5 stalks organic celery
- 1 large cucumber
- 2 inches turmeric root (or 2 tsp. turmeric powder)
- 1 lemon
Juice the above ingredients in a juicer such as the Omega 8006, and serve! If you are experiencing allergies or allergy symptoms, drink this twice daily.
Tried this today. It's a very refreshing drink! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteInteresting ... I have an allergy to apples (actually anything related to apples too), can this be substituted or left out?
ReplyDeleteI would substitute pears or oranges!
DeletePears might be more expensive, but the flavor will be very similar when substituting for apple's.
