mint is good for:
. proper digestion
. relieving congestion
. skin cleansing & disorders
. easing nausea & headaches

//\ ||| -= you only need half or a quarter of a single beetroot. all these juices i make are pretty randomly thrown together with whatever is juiceable in my kitchen at the time. play around with different combinations & proportions, & blend a variety of flavors as well as colors.

//\ ||| -= does anyone else trip out when they wander around the fresh produce section of their local grocery store? nothing produces such vibrant colors & such beautiful patterns as nature does. i'm endlessly astounded by the features presented to me in fruits, in vegetables, in jungles, in oceans, in aurorae, in nebulae. pay attention to the naturally occurring, perfect geometry that surrounds you everyday.

i've already said what's good about each of these ingredients, so uh..
juice is good for:
. raw energy
. amazing health
. higher vibrations

//\ ||| -= i used four apples in total for this mix, & although the color made it look like pure beet juice, it tasted more like apple (which is what i wanted).

apple is good for:
. dental health
. anti-lung cancer
. controlling weight
. lowering asthma risk
. blood sugar regulation

//\ ||| -= unfortunately my juicer is not one of those crazy, super-efficient, $500 juicers & yields less juice from the same amount of produce, but in the end it gives me what i need so i can't complain. the issue here is that i have to use so much produce just to make a single glass of juice. & in this recipe, i actually ended up having to throw in four more carrots -- all the more reason to shop strictly at farmer's markets which are much fresher & much cheaper than your regular supermarket.

//\ ||| -= i used a baby sized beetroot in this recipe, & combined with the carrots & apple i finally discovered the perfect ratio of ingredients for a deliciously sweet beetroot juice! previously i'd used way too much beetroot which made for an almost unbearably overpowering flavor & had my stomach feeling not-so-amazing after consuming. apparently you're always supposed to juice beetroot with ample amounts of other veggies anyway.

//\ ||| -= some consider this ABC (apple, beetroot, carrot) juice the "miracle juice" as, with regular intake, it can prevent bad cells forming in your body as well as restrain the growth of ones that already exist, thus it is ideal for those wishing to fight cancers & other diseases.

grapefruit is good for:
. antiseptic
. weight loss
. detoxing the liver
. arthritis prevention
. reducing cholesterol levels
. cancer & stroke risk reduction

//\ ||| -= i really could've done with just one of those three bits of beetroot. crazy strong.

//\ ||| -= when juicing citrus fruits, be sure to peel them completely beforehand otherwise you'll end up with some bitter-ass juice. however, the peel is actually very good for you &, to lessen waste, can be made into candy, marmalade, tea, or a face scrub!

//\ ||| -= sorry for using the same ol' ingredients, if you read my main squeeze you'd know i'm in a cast & crutches at the moment, so it's been a challenge having to depend on others to get my groceries lately! will change up the mixes soon, i promise.
