INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 cups fresh spinach leaves
  • 2 cups kale leaves, stems removed
  • 2 cucumbers, chopped
  • 4 celery stalks, chopped
  • 2 green apples, cored and sliced
  • 1 lemon, peeled and quartered
  • 1-inch piece fresh ginger root
  • 1-inch piece fresh turmeric root (or 1 teaspoon ground turmeric)
  • 2 cups filtered water
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional, for added fiber and omega-3s)

INSTRUCTION:

  1. Prepare the produce: Wash all vegetables and fruits thoroughly. Chop cucumbers, celery, apples, and lemon into smaller pieces for easier blending.
  2. Add to blender: Place spinach, kale, cucumbers, celery, apples, lemon, ginger, and turmeric into a high-speed blender.
  3. Add water: Pour in two cups of filtered water to help the blending process and create a smooth consistency.
  4. Blend until smooth: Blend on high for 1–2 minutes until the mixture is completely liquefied.
  5. Strain (optional): For a smoother juice, pour the mixture through a fine mesh strainer or nut milk bag to remove pulp. If you prefer a thicker smoothie-style drink, skip this step.
  6. Add chia seeds: Stir in chia seeds if desired, allowing them to soak for 5–10 minutes to expand and add texture.
  7. Bottle and store: Pour the juice into clean bottles or jars. Seal tightly and refrigerate. Shake before drinking, as natural separation may occur.
  8. Serve chilled: Drink one glass in the morning on an empty stomach for maximum benefit.

SERVINGS:

This recipe yields approximately 6–8 servings, depending on portion size. Stored in the refrigerator, it remains fresh for up to 4 days. For longer storage, freeze portions and thaw overnight before use.

NOTE:

  • Always shake the bottle before drinking, as natural separation of ingredients is normal.
  • Use organic produce when possible to maximize nutrient density and minimize exposure to pesticides.
  • Adjust sweetness by adding more apple or a small piece of pineapple if desired.
  • Turmeric may stain surfaces; handle carefully when preparing.
  • This juice is best consumed in the morning to support digestion, reduce inflammation, and energize the body for the day ahead.
  • Consistency is key—regular intake enhances benefits over time.
