Allow yourself to expand and eliminate your boundaries.
GOLDEN GIRL JUICE RECIPE
2 lemons, peeled (skin and pits removed) (use 1 lemon for the blender method)
1 inch (2.5 cm) knob of fresh ginger (or 1/2 tsp ground ginger; add more if you want a more spicy juice)
1 inch (2.5 cm) knob of fresh turmeric (or 1/2 tsp ground turmeric)
6 medium to large carrots (use 4 carrots for the blender method)
Optional: 1 cup (170 grams) frozen or fresh pineapple, peeled and cored pineapple cut into pieces (use half a cup for the blender method).
INSTRUCTIONS
For the juicer method:
Wash and (if you want to) peel the ginger, turmeric, and carrot. If you don’t peel the carrot, ginger, and turmeric, wash them thoroughly. Peel the lemon (the white inside is ok). If necessary, cut the ingredients so they can fit in the juicer. Juice and serve immediately.
For the blender method:
Wash and (optional) peel the ginger, turmeric, and carrots. Remove the skin and pits from the lemon. Add the carrot, ginger, turmeric, lemon, and 1 cup of water to a blender. Blend slowly and then increase the speed. All ingredients should be well blended. If the mixture is too thick, add more water. Pour the mixture through a strainer or nut milk bag and remove the pulp (fiber). Serve the juice immediately.
The Magical Power of Juicing
Juicing is the single most powerful way to lose weight, heal the body and turn back the clock. Juice fasting is not some new health fad. I am recommending a daily juice for everyone plus juice cleansing four times a year, preferably with the changing seasons.
