Juice Detox Challenge

Spring and Summer are a great time of year to detox.

First of all don’t think of detox as weight loss. This is not a weight loss plan, it is a plan to help your body rid itself of toxins that may be detrimental to your health and wellness.

It is really important that you schedule time in your calendar when you are not traveling or going to have social events. When you detox, please clear your calendar for a full 7 days, join it! Little to lose much to gain 😉

The combination I use to make these Detox juices is delicious and with all the benefits from veggies and fruits.

What ingredients is made of

Is always the same base, green apples and lemon. After we add the green leafy vegetables and others.

Why

Because is a perfect combination. Lemon contains the Vitamin C encourage the absortion of iron and calcium from the green leafy vegetables.

Benefits

Apples contains fibra (pectin) and antioxidants properties from vitamin C and E. Contains catechins and quercetin, two anticancer agents combating free radicals. In addition has expectorant properties.

Lemon, among other properties, is liver depurative and cannot miss.
