Daily on Facebook people post their "healthy" pictures of juicing or recipes for juicing like this picture. If those fruits & veggies are not ORGANIC then those fruits & veggies are full of pesticides, hormones, and are probably also GMO, etc. So in reality, it's "cleansing/detoxing" with poison. The fruits & veggies with the most pesticides aka the "Dirty Dozen" are: Peaches, Apples, Sweet Bell Peppers, Celery, Nectarines, Strawberries, Cherries, Pears, Grapes (Imported), Spinach, Lettuce, Potatoes. So if we were to listen to this person who posted the recipe in the picture almost all of their ingredients for their "healthy" juice are full of pesticides.
BE CAREFUL where you get your exercise & nutrition advice from!
Side note, her recipe includes celery & cucumber which have ZERO nutritional value, and romaine lettuce which has some. Better options would be organic broccoli, organic carrots, organic cauliflower, organic tomatoes, organic garlic, etc. Also, unless you're going to drink the pulp of the fruit too, don't put so much fruit in your juice! Just drinking the juice from the fruit (fructose), spikes your blood sugar which signals the body to produce more of the hormone cortisol, the hormone in charge of producing body fat. Pick ONE fruit, and the rest should be veggies! #RIOfitnessChicago
