We’ve been enjoying this 5 Greens Fruit and Vegetable juice for the past 15 years! It all began when a friend mentioned she makes this juice to sneak some fiber into her “meatarian” husband’s diet (he refuses to eat anything green) That inspired us to give it a try as well. Since we are often eating out and not having enough veggies, it seemed like a great way to bring some balance to our meals.
Fifteen years later, we’re still at it—juicing six times a week! We blend raw green apples, capsicum, celery, baby bitter gourd, and Japanese cucumbers into a refreshing, nutrient-packed green juice.
We have to admit, it took some time to get used to the taste at first. I still remember a colleague remarking that she could smell the capsicum every time I drank it at the office. But now, I absolutely love both the taste and aroma. I even find myself missing it whenever we travel!`
Nutritional Benefit
We all know that eating fruits and vegetables is beneficial for our bodies. Green capsicum and apples provide a rich source of vitamin C and antioxidants. Baby bitter gourd and celery offer natural detoxifying properties, while cucumbers, with their silica content, support healthy skin and hair.
After juicing, we mix some of the pulp back into the juice to boost its fiber content. This not only aids digestion but also supports the growth of gut microbiota, which are vital for overall health.
Why green and not red capsicum?
