I'm trying to kick my every so familiar caffeine addiction in an attempt to feel healthy again (and have whiter teeth- not gunna lie, the small aspect of vanity is definitely playing a part). I've been addicted (and I mean addicted- withdrawal headaches if I don't have my morning coffee) since I was about 17. Outrageous, I know!
While I was doing my 3 day juice fast, I noticed I wasn't getting my usual withdrawal headaches and I still felt energized and clear-minded. So, I thought I could give it a try- a genuine attempt to stop drinking coffee (regularly at least). I don't like relying on it in the mornings and I think juicing will help me kick the addiction. So, this morning, I made myself a nice green juice that is full of vitamins and energy. It's already 10:30 am and I still feel refreshed and energized. Give it a try and let me know what you think!
Ingredients:
- 1 tomato
- 1 celery stalk
- 1/2 cucumber
- 1 large handful of spinach
- 1 small handful of parsley
- 1/2 carrot
- 1/2 lemon (peeled)
- 1/2 inch of ginger
Directions
- Wash up the veggies and cut them into a size that is suitable for your juicer.
- Put them through your juicer, alternating hard produce with soft produce.
- Drink immediately
I made this juice with my
Samson GB 9001 Juicer. You can find great deals on the Samson or plenty of other
juicers from Purely Juicers.

This sounds prefect for the alkaline lifestyle I just started. Everyone one of those veggies is more alkaline than acid. That's great!
