Lean Mean Vitamin Green Juice

Infuse your body with the vitamins and minerals it craves with this lean mean green juice! This green juice is delicious and it is the perfect thing to start (or end) your day! The addition of apple, pineapple & fennel will help ease the bitterness of greens, and if you choose to add lemon, you can cut that "green" taste even more.

Consuming plenty of greens throughout the day is essential to help filter and cleanse the blood, as well as deodorize the body and leave you feeling fresh. Chlorophyll (the stuff that makes green produce green) is molecularly similar to the hemoglobin in our blood, despite the central molecule which differs in each (magnesium in chlorophyll and iron in hemoglobin). Because of structural similarity, when you consume a green juice it is essentially like giving yourself a blood transfusion! 

Kick start your day with this vitamin juice and set wonderful intentions for the rest of your day!


Ingredients:
- 4 kale leaves
- 1 cucumber
- 5 stalks celery
- 1/2 bulb fennel
- 3 green apples
- 2 cups pineapple
- 3 inches ginger root
- 1 lemon (optional)

Juice the above ingredients in a juicer (such as the Omega 8006) and serve fresh!

  1. Hello,
    Thank you for experimenting with juices and providing us the best juice recipes.
    Heard that Kale is a goitrogenic food. How far is it good to consume raw kale juice daily.
    Will we get any juice from the steamed kale leaves?

    1. I don't think I would juice steamed kale leaves - they wouldn't juice at all, they would just get squishy. Raw kale juice daily shouldn't be a problem if you don't have any thyroid issues, but I like to keep my kale juicing to 2-3 times a week. Not every day.
