i had a headache yesterday after work, so i came home and juiced, and almost instantly the headache was gone. seriously people. you have no idea how good juicing is for you.
now i'm not trying to convince everyone to go on a juice fast. we all know that we need our fiber as well. my hubby, for one, can't go on a juice fast because he needs the fiber of these fruits and veggies to help him digest (he has colitis). but he does juice with me at least once a day.
so that's what i'm encouraging you guys to do! juice once a day. or make an all-fruit/veggie smoothie (no sweetener, no milk of any kind, no yogurt, etc) at least once a day. preferably juicing, though, because of all the nutrients that are packed into that one juice. (with smoothies, you don't use as many fruits/veggies, and you get full faster, therefore limiting the amount of nutrients you consume.)
i still have so many juicing recipes to share coming up on the blog, including how to make a soup from just juicing!
but for now, here's another fave of mine. sweet beet juice. be careful with this one. beet juice stains easily. especially your teeth and gums! :) so if you make this juice, don't drink it right before you go somewhere! when i drink beet juice, i drink it at night.
Sweet Beet Juice
2 beets with stems, washed well
2 large carrots
2 gala apples
1/2 inch ginger
juice all ingredients. pour over ice, whisk, and serve.
brushing my teeth,

I have heard so much in the bloggy rhelm about juicing of late. It may be time to give it a try!
everytime i drink beet juice my pee comes out light pink and i don't know if thats good or not, but i heard its due to low stomach acid, do you know anything about this?
