Today I want to mention something that has been helping me a lot. It is a green juice that is made with different fruits and vegetables.<br />
<br />
I first saw this juice on <a href="http://culinariareceitas.blogspot.com/">Mauro Rebelo's blog</a> and thought I would try it. My biggest challenge lately has been tiredness. In fact, more like exhaustion. While my doctor checks into it, I decided to try the juice to see if it would help.<br />
<br />
It really has made a huge difference in my energy levels. It is way better than coffee in that sense (although I love coffee and can never give it up). I wake up around 5:30 AM so I have the juice first thing in the morning. Then I have my regular breakfast later.<br />
<br />
The recipe I am using:<br />
1 Cucumber<br />
1 Carrot<br />
1 Orange<br />
1 Apple<br />
Some Greens ( spinach, mustard greens, kale)<br />
Handful of mint leaves (I have also used parsley)<br />
2 Tab sprouted sun flower seeds (soak it for about 8 hours, drain and let it sit for another 6-8 hours)<br />
2 Tab flax seeds - soaked for 8 hours<br />
<br />
Put in blender and blend. Put the whole thing into cheesecloth and then squeeze the juice out. Drink.<br />
<br />
Here is the link to the information on the blog. It is in Portuguese, but the video is worth a look.<br />
