Detox Juices

Digestive Stimulator

Ginger aids and soothes the digestive tract during a detox.

SERVINGS

Makes 2 servings of 16-20 oz (500-600 ml)

INGREDIENTS

6 carrots

4 apples

2 in (2.5 cm) piece of ginger

NUTRITION

Carrots are the richest plant source of vitamin A, and a good source of potassium. Apples contain antioxidants that help protect ‘good’ cholesterol levels in the blood. Ginger root reduces nausea, pain and inflammation, and provides heartburn relief. It also aids digestion and may help to boost the body’s thermogenesis and metabolism.

Colon Cleanser

This juice is rich in Vitamin C which works as an activator, so a great compliment to an Epsom’s flush.

If you want to use this as a stand alone colon cleanser without the Epsom flush then add 1/4-1/2 tsp of Himalayan or sea salt.

SERVINGS

Makes 1 servings of 16-20 oz (500-600 ml)

INGREDIENTS

2 lemons peeled and halved

4 apples quartered

2 cucumbers halved

1 cup water

1/4-1/2 tsp of Himalayan or sea salt (if not doing Epsom flush)

NUTRITION

Lemons are a brilliant source of vitamin C to really boost the immune system and vitamin C activates the salts during a cleanse. Apples contain antioxidants that help protect ‘good’ cholesterol levels in the blood. Cucumbers are highly alkalising, a great antioxidant, helps to reduce inflammation in the digestive tract and provides hydration for the body.
