A JUICE A DAY...
FIVE JUICES FOR IMMUNITY BOOSTING, WEIGHT LOSS OR CURING MENTAL FATIGUE
Contributed by estCA staff, Lindsay Vacek
We love fresh juices. Whether we are making our own or grabbing one to go at our local Whole Foods, it’s been proven that juicing can really help makes us feel our best. From fighting off a cold to looking for a mental boost to get through the day, we compiled our favorite juice combinations so you can try one every day this week.
MONDAY: IMMUNE BOOSTER
4 large carrots, scrubbed clean
1-2 cloves of garlic, potency level entirely up to you
1/2 cored and peeled pineapple
1 inch of fresh ginger
TUESDAY: FATIGUE FIGHTER
1 large carrot, scrubbed clean
2 slices of lemon, peel removed
1/2 beet
1 apple (any kind - we like Fuji)
handful of spinach
WEDNESDAY: DE-STRESSER
We recommend you make this one in your blender.. we’ve never tried to juice a banana but imagine it could get a bit messy
1 frozen Banana
5 whole strawberries (tops removed)
1 pear (cored)
THURSDAY: BEAT THE BLOAT
Carrot, Apple, Cabbage
FRIDAY: HANGOVER CURE
Apple, Carrot, Beet, Lemon
PRO TIPS:
Don’t have a juice, don’t worry! You can easily throw these ingredients into a blender and then pour it through a strainer into your glass.
Juices lose their nutrients after a few hours so it’s best to consume your juice right away
