Vegetables juice starts my day. This morning - Green Pepper + Tomato + Bitter Gourd + Green Apple + Celery +Carrot + Cabbage; and it’s delicious!
No rule on how to juice, depending on what’s available in my fridge. But I always prefer vegetables than fruits because of less acid and sugar, use green apple or pear just to improve on the taste! I am not able to choose the air I breathe but at least I can make a choice on what I put into my body.
