The Purple Rejuvenator - AKA Hangover Cure #1

in #food8 years ago (edited)

So you feeling a little rough, perhaps tired and a bit rundown.  It might be from a few too many the night before or not, either way this juice is my goto "Jump Start the Day" blend.

INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 Ribs Celery
  • 2 Carrots
  • 1 Red Apple
  • 1 Green Apple
  • 1 Beet
  • 1/2 Cucumber
  • 1/2 Lemon
  • 1 inch piece of Ginger

Wash, leave the skins on, and cut into pieces that will fit your juicer or blender.

This blend is a very good and potent detoxifying cocktail.   Here is a rundown of the benefits of each ingredient aside from being rich in vitamins and minerals.

  • Celery - A natural diuretic that supports weight loss.  Great for the lung and kidney.
  • Carrot - Great source of antioxidants.  Helps fight liver and bladder problems as well as asthma and arthritis.
  • Apple - Promotes digestion and weight loss.  Promotes healthy heart function and detoxes the intestines.
  • Beet - A strong blood cleanser.  Promotes healthy liver and bladder functions.  Helps fight fatigue.
  • Cucumber - High water content.  Helps to maintain a healthy blood pressure.
  • Lemon - Skin has anti-cancer properties. Helps fight bacterial poisoning and aids in digestion.
  • Ginger - Great for the digestion system.  Helps with nausea and respiratory colds.

Use the juicing method of your choice, I prefer the Omega.

Super easy to use and clean-up is a breeze.  I can clean this in about 2-3 minutes after use.  To me that is the most important feature.  I have had juicers in the past that were an absolute nightmare to clean which led to not using them much.  The Omega is awesome!

Regardless of your method, try this juice recipe out, you will feel great!

Until next time,

Scott

EXCELLENT ADVICE @scottrok!

I'll try to check it out soon.

Thanks Pepper Dad @papa-pepper

looks fantastic

Good one, can't wait to try it! It would look good as a smoothie bowl too :)

Arginine and pre performance enhancer drinks/mixes are the (one of) only thing that work to zap a hang over fast. Reason: They are designed to increase blood flow which can help with the hang over headache and the heavy body feeling. I've tried this numerous times and it always works. The one thing it can't cure though is the tiredness. But at least the physical pain is gone.
