This is absolutely not normal - what is your plan to be the one that prevents it from destroying your health?

• Vegetables and an Alkaline pH of the Body pH of body should be Alkaline.
• Foods that are alkaline are: most vegetables. Foods that are acidic: fruits, anything processed, sugars, carbs, etc.
• Disease loves acidity. If body is 80% alkaline, cancer cells and disease cannot survive.

Benefits of Juicing

• Improve Immune System, Improve Digestive System, Increase Energy , Slows the Aging Process
• Improves Cardiovascular System: Antioxidants in Vitamins C and E will lower triglyceride levels and support a healthy heart.
• Detoxify the Liver: Liver cleans the blood and removes toxins/waste from the body.
• Cancer Prevention: Phytochemicals (found in plants) have anti-cancer properties, as well as alkalize the body.

Why is Juicing better than eating whole vegetables?

• Less work for the body’s digestive system
• Can consume optimal amount of vegetables easily, with more variety

Favorite Ingredients:

• Ginger: lowers cholesterol levels, soothes the digestive system
• Lemon/Lime: detoxifies the liver
• Cranberries: high in antioxidants (which means they protect against cancer)
