Today, I would like to share an amazing juice recipe with you. It is great for an immunity boost and can be considered as a super juice.
One of our friends,Mr J generously gave us a full tray of barley grass which he had grown at his place. He is so passionate about eating raw and growing super greens such as wheat grass, barley grass, flax micro green etc. Barley grass has many health benefits and can be rightly called as a miracle food or super food. It is one of the oldest cultivated grains and has the wonder ingredient chlorophyll. It is considered to have 11 times more calcium than milk!! It is an important source of Organic Sodium and Vitamin B12 and many other vitamins and minerals. Barley grass is highly recommended for treating digestive and liver issues, arthritis and even to prevent cancer. The barley grass shots are used widely for cleansing and detoxification purposes. I can go on and on..I have seen Barley grass powder in various health and nutrition stores but I haven’t tried those. I am extremely thankful to Mr J who has given us a share of what he had grown organically at home.
I cut the grass (all of it) right above the soil and stored it in a ziplock bag inside the refrigerator. Every morning, I am taking a bunch from that and blending it along with some fruits and veggies. The barley grass is bitter and it is good to combine it with some green apples and carrots. Here is the recipe for the juice I make.
Ingredients:
Barley grass | a bunch |
Green apples | 2 or 3 as needed |
Carrots | 2 or 3 as needed |
Cucumbers | 2 or 3 as needed |
Method:
Juice all of the above ingredients in a juicer and start your day fresh with this Super Juice. Forgot to mention..This mason jar mug is a new member joining my props family
