Super Juices
J
uicing is a fantastic way to increase your intake of essential nutrients and hit your 5-a-day (or 10-a-day) target. If you are struggling to get the nutrition you need, simple try one of these recipes each morning and watch your energy levels rocket! Feel free to create your own juice combinations, but please remember that a lot of fruit is high in sugar, so make sure that most of your ingredients are vegetables.
For all these recipes, I recommend that you use a dedicated juicer. An alternative is to put the ingredients in a high-speed blender and pour the blended concentrate through a cheesecloth to remove the pith.
