Think of juice, and you’ll think of juices in colors of red, yellow, orange, but hardly evergreen. If a gulp of liquified veggies might not sound too appetizing to you, we’ll give you some very good reasons why you should incorporate green juice into your diet in a tasty way. Sooner than later, you’ll appreciate how green juice will have a positive impact on your health.
Green juice comes from veggies like kale, spinach, cucumbers and celery. The green color in the juice is the chlorophyll; the same thing that plants use during photosynthesis to obtain energy from sunlight. Usually, green juice is mixed with a little bit of fruit juice to give it a more delicious taste. But be careful that it doesn’t taste too sweet. You can create your own healthy green juice at home where you control how much sweetness to add with homemade recipes. The correct recipes, however, will give you the right amount of sweetness, with the nutritional value.
