Eliminate The Winter Bug

The winter season is near, and the cold weather can make anyone vulnerable to the "BUG". Here are a few juicing remedies that can prevent or even get rid of that miserable cold:

          Green Mean Machine
  • 1 cup of Spinach
  • 1/2 of a cucumber
  • 2 large carrots
  • 1 celery stalk
  • 1 green apple
  • 1/2 inch of ginger
  • 1 to 2 cloves of Garlic
*Carrots stimulate the immune system and production of anti-bodies. Celery produces vitamins and minerals to support the immune system. Garlic has a potent anti-bacterial and anti-viral properties. To adjust to taste buds you may want to add and extra apple due to the garlic.


      Citrus Heaven
  • 4 oranges
  • 1 Lemon
  • 1 grapefruit
  • 4 slices of pineapple or 1/2 cup of pineapple chunks
  • 2 teaspoons of honey
 * Lemon contains anti-viral properties. Orange and Grapefruits are full of Vitamin C. Honey adds an anti-bacterial property to help speed up the healing of an infection.

You can always adjust to your taste and also remember the fresher the ingredients are, the more effective the juice will be. As soon as you feel that "BUG" coming on, the sooner you drink it the better. If you have any questions, please feel free to comment.
