What do I juice?

My morning juice :)

The answer is...EVERYTHING!  Well, almost everything. Here is a good list of guidelines for juicing certain things :)

BANANAS
-Do not juice bananas. They will turn to mush and clog your machine BUT you can whip them up in the blender and add your juice in with it if you would like banana.

BROCCOLI
-I don't juice florrets but when I cut them off of the "broccoli tree" for dinner one night, I save the tree part for the next morning and juice that. You can see it in the picture above next to the cucumber. Better than trying to eat it!

RADISHES
-When juicing radishes leave the stems and leaves on. Full of more nutrients and fiber for you and will also help cleanse your blood.

APPLES
-When juicing an apple make sure to cut it up to EXCLUDE the seeds. They have a bitter taste for adults and can be toxic for kids. So best to just cut them out

KALE
-Juice the whole thing, stem and all

CUCUMBER
-They make a TON of juice so a very good base!

CARROTS
-Make sure to cut off the green stems of carrots because they are toxic.

PARSLEY
-When juicing parsley do not juice A LOT. Just a small handful or it can be toxic as well

Other than that just juice away!
celery
brussel sprouts
collard greens
spinach
anything green and leafy
jalapenos
CILANTRO is a great detoxifying herb
 Basically anything along with fruit :)

April....Keeping it Simple ;)
