Healthy Juice

Dark greens in particular contain surprisingly high levels of protein. Thirty minutes post-workout the body absorbs more protein than at other times during the day, so this is a great time to consume a green juice prepared with dark greens like kale, spinach, watercress, dandelion greens and chard. Vegetables such as cucumber; celery and romaine contain high levels of electrolyte minerals and will help replenish the body’s electrolyte levels post-workout. Combining orange with your greens offers a healthy boost to the traditional orange juice. It adds loads of vitamin C to your green juice, which is already packed with vitamin A and B vitamins, making this recipe a nutritious powerhouse.
