Vivien’s Famous Juices

We are always being asked what juicer is the best to use. We use various types here depending on the fruit or vegetable being used and also the quantities of juice we are preparing.

There is no need to go out and spend huge amounts of money on juicers. We do recommend, though, that you buy a centrifugal juicer. The larger heavy masticating ones are very time consuming to use and clean, and if you are only preparing juices for one person you will soon get bored of using it. You can buy a good quality high-speed juicer from most good electrical retailers for between £30 and £50.00. With all juices, to get the best results, press alternate chunks through the juicer. Stir and serve immediately. With regards to the produce that you use, keep in mind that if you wouldn’t be happy to eat it, don’t juice it! Don’t see juicing as a way of using up unused fruit and vegetables: if it wouldn’t taste good if you ate it, it won’t taste good in a juice. Always wash your fruits and vegetables before juicing. Remember that these recipes are guidelines and the quantities needed vary depending on the ripeness and juiciness of the fruits and vegetable you are using. In addition to the juice recipes, we have included a little bit of information about some of the fruits to give you an idea of what these amazing fruits can do for you, and how best the combinations work together to help you through the day.

Keeping Healthy

With the wind and rain and lack of sun over the last few weeks our bodies are missing out on Vitamin C & Vitamin D etc. so boosting your immune system with juices that go straight into the blood stream is an easy way to absorb the Vitamins that you may be lacking.

Take time to listen to your body when you are on Toxic overload your body is letting you know what it doesn’t need, so listen to it !!!

As you are not walking or exercising as you normally would be I recommend smaller potions every two hours to keep your blood sugar balanced. This will help your body reregulate.

Feel free to email me if there is anything that you feel that I can help you with.

Keep safe and well,

Vivien
