Why do we talk about "juice to purify after the holidays"?
To prepare this recipe we have selected specific foods, with mainly purifying, anti-swelling and laxative properties. The apple helps to appease the appetite and is rich in pectin, a soluble fiber that can control cholesterol levels in the blood, keep appetite at bay and regulate intestinal activity, often compromised after party binges. .
Lettuce acts as a laxative due to the presence of fiber; moreover, lettuce has an excellent satiating power, is rich in vitamin C and has a positive effect on the liver and biliary tract. Celery has diuretic properties and fennel seeds help eliminate abdominal swelling. Finally, ginger acts as a digestive and anti-inflammatory.- Insert all the ingredients into the extractor, a few at a time; as an alternative to the extractor, you can use the centrifuge.
- Collect the juice in a glass and, to taste, dilute with water. It is advisable to consume the juice immediately, to fully benefit from the nutrients and active ingredients present.
