Blood of the earth

My friend Mark bought a juicer for Brett and I and taught us how to make a crazy-healthy juice called The Blood of the Earth (which is what it looks like you are drinking when the juice is prepared).

Here's the recipe:
  • 2 carrots: good source of vitamin A, beta-carotene, and anti-oxidants
  • 1 beet: contains natural anti-oxidants; shown to inhibit tumor growth
  • 1 apple, cored and peeled (a juicer will remove the peel): fiber content helps regulate bowel movements
  • 1 cucumber, peeled: adds to juice flavor
Brett and add the following to the recipe for taste and extra vitamin C:
  • 1 lime, peeled
  • 1 lemon, peeled
The taste? Fresh and refreshing, and provides tons of energy.
