STEP ONE: Gather The Goods
Kale. I love kale. It has a complete amino acid profile, and remember, your body does not need proteins, it needs amino acids, which are broken down from proteins. Why eat hard to digest protein when you can assimilate aminos instantly and effortlessly in liquid form? Just one cup of kale contains over 200% RDI of vitamin A and C, and about 700% of the RDI for vitamin K. And your liver LOVES vitamin K!
Carrots. One (1) carrot contains 50% of the RDI for vitamin A. And Bugs Bunny was always healthy.
Lemons. This is a homeopathic theory of my own. Lemons are yellow. Bile is yellow and is produced by the liver. Homeopathy means "like treats like." Want healthy bile? Juice or eat lemons.
Apples. They contain vitamin C, plenty of potassium, and even contain some Omega-6 acids. Go figure!
That's it for this recipe. Now here's where it gets hard core. If you have liver disease or chronic bouts with liver issues you will likely need much more than the government's RDI. If they say 100%, I say 1000%. If they say 1000%, I say 10,000%. We are talking about saturating your body, literally flooding your form with massive amounts of enzymes.
Today I juiced (all organic):
(2) bunches of kale
(1) pound of carrots
(5) lemons
(5) Granny Smith apples
(2) Fiji apples
STEP TWO: Preparation
Chop your goodies into pieces that will fit into your juicer. I use an ancient JuiceLady JL-500. It's freaking bulletproof and easy to clean. There are tons of amazing juicers out there. Find one that is easy to clean. To give you an idea of how much matter it takes to extract usable liquid from fruits and veggies, this is a photo of just the two bunches of kale:
STEP THREE: Juice
Feed the yummy life-giving medicine foods into the juicer and allow the juice to pour into a glass container. Plastic = BAD.
Enjoy! The above photo is about a 2-3 day supply for me.
