SUPER JUICE - KALE, GINGER AND APPLE

these were made with Russian puple kale and pacific rose apples
(thats why this is a little more pink than green)


Well i am still making and enjoying juice with my garden or market fresh produce.  This juice with the addition of this super green (or purple) leafy vegetable KALE and spray free apples is a fantastically refreshing and healthy juice, which i am consuming throughout winter.  It really seems to have the effect of extra energy and i do seem more alert with the added bonus  that my iron levels seem to be back on track!  If you are new to juices don't feel you need to buy top of the line juicer, i got a reasonably cheap one (sunbeam) from one of the larger shops in town and it has lasted me for well over a year!

A little bit of info on kale
For a green - kale is unusually high in fiber. This helps create the bulk you need to fill you up and to keep you full for a good amount of time. Kale is also an excellent source of nutrients, especially vitamin A and calcium. With a combination of vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients, kale is a dieter's dream food
