Celery carrot apple juice benefits12/31/2023 ![]() ![]() Celery makes a nice addition to almost any mix, especially juices made with leafy greens and other vegetables. That will yield a tangier, more savory juice. The natural salts are more abundant in the leaves, so when juicing celery, push the entire stalk (leaves and all) through the machine. We like it just as much, though, for its great flavor. Celery is a cooling vegetable, and we work it into our juices to take advantage of the rich mineral content and natural calming and sedative properties. It’s also a natural laxative and diuretic, supporting bowel and kidney health. The organic sodium and potassium in celery make this juice a great post-workout refresher that helps replace electrolytes. The health benefits of celery juice:Īlkalizing, detoxifying, anti-inflammatory, and loaded with nutrients: essential amino acids, tryptophan, vitamins A, B complex, C, calcium, phosphorus, iron, magnesium, iodine and copper, celery is also effective against respiratory conditions like bronchitis and asthma, and helps lower blood pressure. Make sure your cucumber is organic and hasn’t been embalmed in a coating of wax. Cucumber is our go-to base for sugar-free, alkaline juice blends, too. Cucumbers are intensely alkalizing, and a half (or whole) cucumber worked into a batch of juice offsets the acidic effects of high-sugar fruits and aids detox. Cucumber juice is chock-full of nutrients, yet barely alters flavor. We add cucumber to many juice blends as a way of adding mineral-rich water that’s way more beneficial than the plain filtered stuff. Any cucumber, though, goes well in our recipes. To take advantage of the nutrients in the skins, we always use the less-bitter-skinned English/Dutch variety. A natural blood-pressure regulator, cucumber is high in vitamin A (mostly in the peel), B complex, C and folic acid, amino acids (methionine and tryptophan), potassium, sulfur, and natural chlorine. The silica in cucumber also reduces the concentration of uric acid, which causes inflammation in the joints, muscles and tendons. A relative of squashes and melons, the cuke is a natural diuretic (due to that abundant water), aiding in cell hydration, waste removal, and dissolving kidney stones.Ĭucumber’s high silica content is great for the skin, and helps alleviate eczema, psoriasis, hair loss, and strengthen nails. It’s right in there regulating body temperature and easing inflammation. This vege-fruit truly is the ultimate cool-hydrate-cleanse food. ![]() While spinach is cooling, we include it in every seasons cleanse since it’s a versatile ingredient that pairs well with all fruits and vegetables. This popular and readily available mild leafy vegetable serves as a great introductory green for juicing. Rounding things out, spinach also provides carotenoids, lutein, vitamins A, B complex, C, K, folic acid, iodine, potassium, calcium, magnesium, phosphorous, sodium and manganese, and many amino acids. Rich in chlorophyll and carotene, spinach can help reduce the development of abnormal cells and macular degeneration. It also helps strengthen all other cells, particularly those of the respiratory system and brain. Highly alkalizing, spinach contains nearly twice as much iron as any other green, and helps to build blood by helping red blood cells carry oxygen. The apples and optional burdock root help break down toxins while you rest. Antioxidants and carotenes in carrots combat free radicals and bolster the production and function of white blood cells for immunity. Along with the cuke, celery is a natural diuretic. Spinach cleanses, regenerate cells, builds blood, and clears the respiratory system, while cucumber hydrates and nourishes the skin and connective tissues with silica. This carrot, apple, ginger, spinach juice from The Decadent Detox 3-Day Juice Cleanse is a mineral-dense powerhouse that will build up your body and prepare it for deep rest and restoration. ![]()
