iDrink Green Juice

In case your mother never told you; Green Juice is the meanest kind of good for your mind, body and health. So start drinking!

Here's how to make it ...

Veggies you need:

1. Broccoli

This natural detoxifier is packed with Iron and Vitamin C. Want to look and feel young? The antioxidant properties of this green, fight and defeat skin damage, and contribute towards maintaining healthy skin. 

2. Celery

Eye problems? This green helps promote eye health, making sure they're fit and fine. Its richness in vitamin A helps combat age-related degeneration of vision.

3. Kale

This low in calorie, but high on nutrients green also assures skin and eye health. You can find one too many nutrients in the leaves of Kale, including iron, magnesium, copper potassium, phosphorus, vitamin A, vitamin C, among many others.

4. Cucumber

Forgetting a lot lately? Start juicing cucumber! This green not only improves your memory, but it also protects nerve cells from age-related degeneration. Really, it keeps your brain healthy, wealthy, and wise, and also helps get rid of your bad breath causing bacteria!

5. Spinach

If you don't know about this green, you don't know anything. Even Popeye popped open his can of spinach every time he was in trouble; so what are you waiting for? Iron and protein, skin and hair, it can help you with all, and that's rare!

6. Apple  

An apple a day, still keeps doctor away. Worried about your weight? Start eating apples! This low calorie fruit satisfies hunger as it contains a lot of water and fools the body into believing it's eaten a lot. The fiber in apple juice also makes you feel full and prevents overeating.

7. Lime

And together they make ...

... Green Juice!

Simple but Genius!

It's almost like my new tradition. I fall asleep after a big long day, go to the nicest places in my dreams - up the mountains and under the water of course, wake up when my alarm starts screaming at me, get myself on a Yoga mat to burn off my totally unnecessary carbs and run straight to the kitchen bewitched by the thought of my Avocado waiting for me to crack it open and destroy it. 

My Cracked Open Avo :)

A Recipe for Blessing

Key Ingredients:

A pinch of sea salt
A dash of black pepper
A drop of lemon
A slice of bread
A hint of excitement
And a very questionable Avocado

The Avo-Tomato Duet on my Chop Board

There's a lot you can do to this fruit to make it yummy in your tummy, I generally like to dissect it into thin, long strips for starters. 

You might also want to chop a tomato for your toast (optional), I like to.   

The rest is really a personal choice, some hand mash the Avocado while others like them in strips for their toast. I have phases - at times mashed, at times shredded pieces. Whatever you do, don't forget to sprinkle some salt, lemon and lots of black pepper. And drizzling some olive oil on top of it all, is always a good idea.

I've started to realize that a nice healthy breakfast in the morning really defines the rest of your day. My new Avo Toast tradition leaves me feeling fresh and energetic for the rest of my day! In fact, Leo Widrich, the Co-founder and COO at Buffer, points out How your Productivity is Determined by What you Eat in his blog. And especially eating Avocados is believed to lower bad cholesterol, and improve learning and muscle function. See for yourself!

In the meantime ..
