The Health Benefits of Romaine Juice
This leafy legend was believed by the ancient Greeks to induce sleep, so it came into their banquet halls at the end of the meal. The Romans carried on the custom, and it’s from them that the green derives its name. Romaine does more than aid sleep and alleviate pain. It offers compounds that prevent macular degeneration and osteoporosis, iron-deficiency anemia, and cardiovascular disease. The leaves are an excellent source of vitamin A and beta-carotene, as well as vitamins K, B, C, and folate, xanthin and carotenes. Romaine reinforces all this with iron—and calcium, magnesium, potassium, manganese, and copper. And with a nice crunch, too, come to think of it.
We use romaine as a natural sedative in evening juices. It is cooling, but as it’s inexpensive and available year-round, we include it in cleanses for every season. Juice the core from which the leaves grow, along with the leaves themselves, for a mellow, slightly bitter, fresh “green” flavor. Pair romaine with any fruits and vegetables; it’s especially nice with lemons and limes. Too much romaine can yield a bitter juice. A pinch of Celtic sea salt helps balance flavor.
The Health Benefits of Mint Juice
Mighty mint delivers potassium, calcium, iron, manganese and magnesium, beta- carotene, and vitamins A, C, E and K. The leaves also contain B-complex, including folates, riboflavin and pyridoxine (B6). Mint is one of the oldest remedies in use for indigestion and flatulence, and can help bring down cholesterol and high blood pressure. It’s a natural topical anesthetic for the mouth. Through the action of menthol on cold receptors in our skin and mucous membranes, the herb delivers a cool sensation when eaten, inhaled or applied.
Compounds in peppermint, specifically, relax the intestinal wall and sphincter muscles, and work as an anti- spasmodic agent in the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and other colic pain disorders. With these additional properties, peppermint is a great cleanse go- to.
Though a cooling herb, mint brings a bright, warm accent to cold weather juices, and offers a clean taste. That flavor pairs especially well with mild leafy greens, apple, melon, lemon, and pineapple. Juice the entire stalk, stem and leaves.
The Health Benefits of Lemon Juice
This alkaline-forming superstar is a potent detoxifier and natural antibiotic that improve liver function, relieve constipation, help dissolve kidney and gall stones and kill certain intestinal parasites. The high levels of vitamin C in lemons help boost immunity and alleviate symptoms of osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, as well as thwart the development and progression of atherosclerosis and diabetic heart disease.
Lemons also provide ample calcium and magnesium for strong bones and teeth, along with unique compounds that have powerful antioxidant and anti-cancer properties.
I use lemons in s lot of juice blends to lift the earthy and pungent quality of leafy greens and vegetables, add zip and tang, and balance the acidifying impacts of high-sugar fruits.
Always remove the rind before juicing, as in substantial quantities lemon rind can be slightly toxic.
If you want to lower the natural sugar content of this juice, just use one apple and increase the lemon.
