Beetroot Juice Cleanse
Last week I promised I would share a few juice cleanse recipes, which I have been using on My 100 Healthy Days with Well I Am Challenge. This Beetroot Juice Cleanse, is one of the first cleansing juices I tried, not only is it super good for you but it is delicious as well!
Beetroot is a Super Food and has many amazing benefits, I love eating Beetroot, so I thought it would be a good place to start my Juice Cleanse. Beetroot is Detoxifying, helps to Cleanse your Liver and Kidneys , reduces Blood Acidity, lowers High Blood Pressure, prevents Hardening of Arteries, as well as having Anti-ageing Properties! It is also great for Digestion and Regulating Metabolism, which is vital for weight-loss.
Recipe:
- 1 Small Beetroot
- 2 Green Apples
- 3 Strawberries
- 1 Small Cucumber or 1/3 Large Cucumber
- Knob of Ginger {this is very much to taste – I love lots of ginger!}
- 1/4 lemon
Peel the beetroot and cut into chunks, remove the core from the apples and chop into chunks. Chop cucumber leaving the skin on. Peel lemon and ginger. Using a juicer, I used my Bosch Juicer, pass all the ingredients through, starting with the hardest component, in this case the beetroot, then add the rest of the ingredients. Once juiced add a splash of filtered water, if the juice is too thick and a few ice cubes. Enjoy!
