Green juices are rich in chlorophyll
in its natural state – the way nature
intended.
One of chlorophyll’s most important
functions is the oxygenation of the
bloodstream. It is necessary for health
to select foods that feed rather than
rob the body of oxygen.
Without sufficient oxygen in the
blood, we are prone to develop
symptoms of low energy, sluggish
digestion and metabolism, leading
to deterioration in vitality and an
increase in the onset of disease.
The addition of limes and apples to
green juices greatly assist to make
juices more tolerable to the palate.
