- Kiwi
- Green lemon juice (¼ lemon)

How to make a detox juice
- Start by cleaning under cold water all ingredients you use and preserve the skin because it contains a lot of vitamins and minerals (especially if you use organic products).
- Then using a cutting board and a large knife, cut your fruits, apples, kiwi, lemon and vegetables, spinach, cucumber, kale, ginger and others into small pieces. (small enough to fit into your extractor, use the whole vegetables and fruits (also the seeds).
- Begin by passing the leafy greens, baby spinach leaves, and Chinese cabbage through and accompany it with pieces of cucumber or apples to make it easier to get into the extractor. (to avoid blocking)
- Then continue by passing all the fruits and vegetables alternately and this until you get a green juice more or less dark green and that all the pulp is well out.

Storage instructions
Optimal Refrigeration: For peak freshness and nutritional value, store green juice recipes in the refrigerator for no more than two days. Beyond this period, a shift toward a khaki green hue indicates nutrient degradation, which is also reflected in the juice's flavor.
Tip for this recipe
- Cold Press Over Centrifuge: Use a cold press juicer instead of a centrifugal one to preserve the most enzymes and nutrients, as it prevents oxidation and heat build-up.
- Pre-Juice Prep: Cut fruits and vegetables into pieces that fit easily into your juicer chute to prevent clogging and ensure efficient juicing.
- Hydration Boost: Add a splash of aloe vera juice or coconut water to your green juice for extra hydration and a natural electrolyte boost.
- Flavor Enhancers: Enhance the taste without adding sugar by including fresh herbs like mint or basil, or a bit of ginger or turmeric root for a zesty kick and additional health benefits.
- Creative Leftovers: Don't discard the pulp! It can be repurposed into delicious savory dishes like quiche or incorporated into homemade breads.

Never put fruits in detox juices with vegetables, because fruits are digested in the small intestine and not in the stomach like vegetables. It is counter productive. It creates digestive disorders.
Hi Dou Lar, in detox juices raw vegetables can be mixed with raw fruits. Already for the taste it is advised to use 40 % fruits and 60 % vegetables. In addition, the extractor separates the fibers from the juice, so the detox juices without the fibers are completely digestible, letting the body absorb all the nutrients of vegetables and fruits and that by putting at rest the digestive system.
Moreover it is strongly recommended to people with digestive disorders (damaged digestive system) to make detox juices (without fiber), full of nutrients and anti-oxidant to clean the body while putting the digestion at rest.
Thanks for this recipe and the super advice, I've made it several times and the juice tastes great.
Thank you Nadine for your feedback on this recipe.
