Juice Cleanse: Sunshine juice

I juice daily, I found that none of the store bought juice can compare to the freshly made juices I make at home. Freshly prepared juices have more nutrients since none are destroyed since it’s not pasteurized.

Last evening, when the winds were shaking our house, I made this juice.

Sunshine Juice

  • 10 apples
  • 2″ Ginger
  • 2 lemons

Directions

  1. Add all ingredients to juicer
  2. Juice, serve and enjoy

I was going to add a habañero pepper, but I chose not to do so. I’m currently sipping on the last cup of this sweetly delicious juice (to which I added one teaspoon of black seed oil) and I am about to juice pineapple in my Breville so I can take it to work. I don’t need additional stimulants to wake me up in the morning. I continually am boosting my health based on the foods I chose to consume. It goes without saying that a boost to my health, also means I’m enhancing my immune system. All the ingredients used helps your body fight off a variety of ailments. That’s always a good thing.

Ginger is good. I love the pineapple ginger soda at my favourite cafe in town…and the ginger tea at Indian restaurants. Very nice. It’s “heaty” though – the Chinese believes the body can be hot or cold so one must take cooling or “heaty” stuff accordingly.

VERY true! I’m NOT a fan of store-bought Orange Juices – they just have a bunch of additional ingredients anymore – I would rather just have PURE – stand-alone Orange Juice in my Orange Juice!

A while back I heard that the oranges grown in the 1920’s had 80% MORE Vitamins and Nutrients in today’s grown Oranges…so sad!
