Juicing for Beautifuul Radiant Skin

Juicing for beautiful skin and overall good health.  I do a juice fast about every 4 months.  I know there is a lot of controversy about this issue, rather it works or not.  It works for me, that's all I know.  Juicing takes a lot of time but it is worth it.  Today is day 8 of my fast, I have had nothing but juice for 8 days and I feel great.  Day 3 and 4 are the hardest days for me.  I have more energy, am more focused, less foggy brain going on, my hair and skin look better and the added bonus is I'm lighter on my toes making cycling easier and more fun.  These are just 4 of my favorite juice blends.  As you can see, I don't juice carrots, I buy that one, it's 100% carrots, nothing added.  The rest.... I juice.  If you want complete recipes visit the website at BRSfacialspa.com and look for juicing in the table of contents.

Yellow - Is Turmeric, Ginger, Mango, Lemon, Orange and Coconut Water
Beige - Almond Milk made with almonds that were soaked overnight, Coconut Water, Pears
Red - Strawberries, Blueberries, Red Apples, Ginger, Water Melon, Coconut Water 
Green - Celery, Collard Greens, Kale, Cucumber, Dandelion Leaf, Ginger, Green Apple, Romaine, Spinach, Lemon, Turmeric, Kiwi, Parsley

Here's to good health and tasty juicing.  Enjoy!

Juicing for Beautiful Radiant Skin

Juicing For Radiant Skin
​Juice fasting using raw vegetables and fresh fruits is a healthy choice to provide your body with the nutrition it needs. Juicing allows your body to rest and heal during the duration of the fast.  Your body expends an enormous amount of energy simply breaking down and digesting the food you consume.  Fasting allows this energy to be redirected to areas of the body that need it most.  A tremendous amount of healing occurs during a juice fast.  Juicing supplies your body with substantial amount of vitamins, minerals and enzymes, which help maintain the pH level of our body, and helps rid our bodies of  dangerous carcinogens.  Maintaining the acid to alkaline balance in our bodies is thought to be the key to many diseases, including cancer. The anti-aging properties of fresh fruits and vegetables help improve our skin, hair, and nails.



Always check with your doctor before starting any  new nutritional program.  This information is to share and respond to questions I've been asked based on my research.  Juicing and juice fasting is not healthy for everybody, people with certain conditions should not do a juice fast.
