A juice a day, helps you work, rest & play!

You may have no interest in getting fit or changing your diet and being more healthy. But if there's one thing that everyone should do, is find 10 minutes in their day to make a hugely nutritious and yummy juice. 

So dust off your juicers, bring them out of the cupboard of useless kitchen gadgets, it's next to the Breville Sandwich Toaster and just in front of the Smoothie Maker, and next to the Bread maker and Ice Cream machine. Right got it. 
Give it a clean up, go to your nearest fruit & veg stall and here's the recipe or guide to what you need to buy. 

One of these every day could replace breakfast, lunch or your mid-morning snack. DOOO EEEET. It's called the Dr Juice as it contains all of the fruit or vegetables you would need in 1 day in a healthy juice. 

1 raw beetroot
3 or 4 carrots (depending on size)
3 apples
1 pear
1 stick of celery
1cm of raw ginger
1cm of lime (with skin)

Throw them all in the machine and you should end up with the most amazing looking juice. It has a bright deep red colour and has a sweet taste, with a slight ginger and zesty tang. Pour it over a tall glass of ice, and VOILA your very own Dr Juice. One of these every day, will guarantee to keep you going through the winter. By the way - the ingredients above make enough for 2 large glasses (a good pint or so of juice), so you can reduce the quantity if you want. 

Personally I don't like beetroot, never have done and can't stand it in salad. But juice the fecker and I LOVE IT. So my only recommendation for the day is JUICE JUICE JUICE. 

I'll post any more great recipes I find or come across, so do let me know if you know of any other great juices.
