JUICING DIARIES: ANOTHER GREEN SMOOTHIE: SPINACH & MIXED FRUITS

Hey beautiful people,

I'm so glad that many of you have joined me in juicing regularly.

I love seeing and trying out your suggestions, please keep em coming :-))

In the meantime, how about you try out this simple and energy packed green juice I made a few days ago.

Ingredients:-

2 heads spinach

1 banana

1 green apple

2 red apples

1 orange

1/4 watermelon

Wash and chop up the spinach and fruits.

 Use blender or juicer. Blend or juice for about 1 minute straight so that the juice is nice and smooth without big particles.

Serve or store in glass jar.

Health benefits of this juice:-

• Loaded with Vitamin C, spinach juice helps cure bleeding gums.
•  Fights vision problems like night blindness and cataract with the presence of vitamin A and caretonoids in it.

Furthermore, it provides your body the important mineral, potassium which is also crucial for heart. So, taking one serving of apple juice every day facilitates the heart to function properly.
