Now that summer is here, trying to stay cool is a pleasure.  Finding the right food to boost your energy and keep the body cool is the preferred choice.  I found this scrumptious fruit salad created by Chef Cheewinsiriwat of Chiva-Som a luxury health resort in Hua Hin (Thailand)....

Apples are one of my favorite fruits to juice. I love this detoxifying fruit! There are many varieties of apples packed with soluble fiber, minerals and the nutrients our bodies need.  An apple a day helps to keep the doctor away, an old familiar saying. Well, there is much truth to the saying so long as you are eating and drinking organic apples....

At Spajuicebar, we promote a healthy and invigorating lifestyle. With our whole-body approach to nurturing, our juices are handcrafted organic cold-press vegetables, fruits and herbs, providing the body with a large dose of enzymes, minerals and nutrients. 

We also promote the importance of maintaining a physical fitness regiment through running.The most obvious effect of running is that it burns calories and raises the metabolic rate—the rate at which the body uses energy.....

One of the most alkaline producing food has twice the amount of iron than most greens, happens to be my favorite vegetable, spinach.  I could eat and drink raw spinach, added to another veggie or fruit juice, at any time. For breakfast, lunch, snack or dinner.

Many have asked why do we place basil in our Morning Boost juice?  Basil is great for a mild headache, cramps, cold, flu, fever...

There is a movement going on, and it’s a great movement.  Women are touching their breast.  How many of us touch or examine our breast?  I do; I am proud to touch my breast.  

As you go throughout the day take a moment and praise You. Be happy with you. Focus on the internal you, not the external, and love the essence of you. 

A silent moment of connection between a photojournalist and two baby seals reminds us that affection and warmth live in all beings. I first posted this video in 2014, this touching video is a timeless reflection of the love that transcends species.

Preparing for a juice cleanse is key to ensuring a smooth and successful experience. Begin with a pre-cleanse by eating raw foods, drinking plenty of water, and eliminating heavy proteins, processed foods, and caffeine from your diet. Focus on alkaline-forming foods like fresh fruits and vegetables to support your body. Herbal teas such as green tea, lemongrass tea, rooibos tea, and dandelion tea offer great alternatives to coffee, helping to cleanse and nourish the body. A juice cleanse is an opportunity to detoxify, restore balance, and strengthen the immune system while embracing nature’s healing energy. Take this time to nurture yourself—you deserve it!

Green juice is a powerhouse for detoxifying the body, supporting red blood cell production, and boosting the immune system with its rich chlorophyll content. By alkalizing the body and preventing toxin buildup, green vegetables promote overall health and protection against diseases. After incorporating green juice into my routine during a personal health journey, it became a natural healer and an essential part of my life. Try my favorite recipe featuring kale, cucumber, grapes, and lemongrass, and enjoy the incredible benefits of this refreshing drink!
