Iron Punch Using My Samson 9001 Juicer

Are you vegetarian or vegan? The unfortunate truth is that vegetable lovers who avoid meat are highly susceptible to iron-deficient anemia. If you’re not giving your body a supply of animal-based iron (heme iron) it becomes difficult to get your body a sufficient supply of vegetabe-based iron (non-heme iron)… Especially when life becomes as hectic as if often does!

What can you do about it? Juicing vegetables that are high in iron and mixing them with vitamin C helps your body absorb the vegetable-based iron much more efficiently. Give this juice recipe a try- it’s full of iron and vitamin C and will have you feeling energized again!

Ingredients

• 3 leaves of kale
• 1 large bunch of spinach
• 1 large beet
• 2 carrots
• 1 lemon – peeled

Steps

1. Clean the above produce and chop them into cubes that will fit in your juicer.
2. Feed the cubes through your juicer, alternating between hard veggies and leafy greens.
3. Drink ASAP and store any leftover juice in an air-tight container to preserve nutrients.

Just another note on iron-deficient anemia. Animal-based iron is absorbed much more efficiently by your body than vegetable-based iron, and it helps your body absorb vegetable-based iron. So, if you find that you’re anemic and you’re ok with eating meats, go out and eat some! It’ll get you back to healthy iron levels much more quickly!

This juice is best made with a masticating juicer. I would suggest a Samson 9001 Juicer or an Omega 8006 Juicer
