3. Delicious Diuretic Delight
This recipe calls for the addition of green bell pepper. This green veggie comes packed with carotenoids, flavonoids, and hydroxycinnamic acids, which make it an antioxidant powerhouse. This juice also has a diuretic effect, but not as severe as the bitter melon recipe. The addition of orange helps to sweeten the recipe, and enhance the flavor profile. Remember to core and seed the pepper before adding it to the blender.
4-stalks celery.
1-medium English cucumber.
1-green bell pepper – cored and seeded.
1-red apple.
½-orange – peeled.
½-lemon – peeled.
This recipe works well for an on-the-go breakfast or as a snack between meals, the juice is rich in Vitamin B6, and folate, as well as Vitamin C from the orange and lemon. There’s no spice or heat from the peppers, although they give the juice a slightly bitter taste. The antioxidant profile makes this an excellent option if you’re considering a detox program. Yields 5-cups.
