30 dAYS oF jUICING!
In honor of improving my family’s eating habits. We have a 30 day Juice challenge! These 30 recipes are designed to help you consume more nutrients from fruits and vegetables — Drinking fresh fruit and vegetable juices regularly helps with weight maintenance and improves overall nutrition. They are not designed to replace your normal meal routine.
Starter juices showcase fresh berries and other sweet fruits, such as citrus and melon. As we progress, we slip earthier, more nutrient dense with vegetables like leafy greens, celery and cucumber into healthful, palate-pleasing combinations.
