Juicing can be a very expensive addition to your menu but worth it. The health benefits to juicing are amazing. I find it gives me as much energy as a cup of coffee which is great! So, how do you make juicing work in your budget. Well, like everything if you juice the same things everyday, it is easier to fit it in your budget. Since we are on a limited budget, I pick vegetables to juice that give me the best nutritional value. These are the veggies and fruits that I juice every morning for my family: carrots, celery, green pepper, cabbage, parsley, beets and apples. Carrot juice is amazing for vision and provides vitamin A, C and potassium; green pepper and parsley provide necessary folic acid and calcium; the cabbage juice protects against free radicals in the body, is a muscle builder, blood cleanser and eye strengthener, proven to heal stomach ulcers, has been known to help people with Crone's disease and is also rich in iron and sulfur; and beet juice is a blood purifier, cures diseases of the large intestines and digestive system. It also is known to dissolve kidney stones, liver stones and bladder stones. The apples provide riboflavin, thiamine, carotene, vitamin B6, biotin, folic acid and vitamin C, not mention they make this drink sweet.
How to get your kids to drink this drink!
Start by juicing carrots and apples. Once they are used to the juiced apples and carrots begin by adding one other vegetable. Start with a little piece of the that vegetable and slowly increase the amount. Once they are drinking the desired amount of that juiced vegetable, add a new vegetable. Keep repeating this process until you are giving them the desired amount of juiced vegetables that you want. My kids drink every vegetable that I have listed above and love it!
