All of these drinks, including this green machine juice, are beneficial to cleanse the body for weight loss, promote vibrant skin, increases hydration, energy, reduce hypertension and flush away toxins!

I have been loving all the fresh juices at our local juicer and this is another favorite beverage like this green drink recipe that I started making at home! If you want to turn it into a smoothie, add some ice and just blend the ingredients in a blender. Trust me, you will feel AMAZING after drinking this one too!

The only difference between juicing and drinking it as a smoothie is that juicing (or blending and straining) removes the fibers which is easier for digestion. This allows the body to absorb the nutrients faster as it is not working on processing or breaking down the fibers and nutrients quickly goes into the bloodstream.

What is blended together here is a combination of kale, chard, romaine lettuce, cucumber, celery, lemon, lime, apple, ginger and coconut water. All of which these ingredients combined refresh the body, add a massive boost of hydration, reverse oxidation stress (cause of aging) and is a quick and efficient way to get your fruits and vegetables into your daily diet!

When to drink this green juice for DETOX?

The best time of day to drink this is first thing in the morning, 20-30 minutes before eating anything else to boost the body with the nutrients it needs. You can even break it up after drinking warm lemon water, or in place of it. If you are doing a detox juice cleanse, this green machine juice is wonderful to add to that by drinking a few glasses of this throughout the day as you “fast”.

To make this drink, first gather fresh organic (is best) produce! Here is what you will need for your detoxing drink:

Chard Leaf – Chard is low calorie and high in vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin K, and vitamin E. It also contains minerals of calcium, magnesium, potassium, copper and iron. It is a leafy green that can aid in reducing hypertension and high blood pressure. antioxidants, nutrients, antioxidants and supports overall health [source].

Romaine Lettuce – Romaine is a leafy green that is crisp in texture and great for juices as it adds natural liquid to the beverage that is full of phytonutrients. It contains vitamins A, C and K and B vitamins such as folic acid which helps reduce the risk of stroke. It also contains mineral such as copper, calcium, iron, magnesium.

Kale –  Kale is one of the healthiest leafy greens to consume. It is packed full of antioxidants and aids to reduce oxidation stress on the body. This stress breaks down the body's cells and causes aging and wrinkles. Kale helps to reverse this oxidation, and can help promote a youthful look [source]!

Cucumber – Cucumbers are packed with fiber and made of 95% water to help hydrate the body and reduce inflammation by aiding to flush away toxins. It also supports the digestive track and contains vitamin A and K.

Celery – Celery contains less energy calories in it than it takes the body to break down the vegetable through digestion. That means it helps speed up the metabolism and supports weight loss.

Apple – An apple a day keeps the doctor away! Apples are extremely rich in antioxidants and support a healthy immune system by blocking away free radicals. It also aids in better digestion since apple are rich in fiber, decreases inflammation to support neurological function, reducing risk of stroke and dementia. Apples also aid to reduce the risk of chronic illness such as cardiovascular disease [source].

Lemon and Lime – Increases a healthy immune system, is a powerful antioxidant, helps to ward of hunger, jump start the digestive system, and is full of citric acid to defend the body against free radicals. Lemons and lime also balance the pH levels in the blood to keep the body at an alkaline state [source].

Fresh Ginger – Ginger is great for digestion, reducing inflammation and easing an upset stomach.

Coconut Water – Coconut water has loads of potassium which helps to regulate the heart rate, increase hydration, and reduce blood pressure levels.

Next, make the juice in a blender or use a juicer.

How to make homemade green juice in a blender or juicer

Blender: Add the produce and coconut water (all the ingredients) to a blender. Blend until smooth then use a nut bag or mesh bag to strain out the fibers. To do so, place the mesh bag over a bowl and pour the juice into the bag. Hold the top and squeeze the bag tightly to remove all the juice. This may need to be done repeatedly a few times.

I am obsessed with this Vitamix and this mesh / nut bag as both are top-of-the-line for blending and straining.

Pour the juice into a glass to serve. Best served chilled or over ice.

In a juicer: If using a juicer, you can can skip the coconut water as an option. It is used in the blender to help it mix and add nutrients and it does add delicious sweetness. Add all the ingredients to a juicer and enjoy! Best served chilled or over ice.
