EAT WELL<br />

Wheatgrass C leanser<br />

Makes about 1 cup (250 mL)<br />

Sweet and salty, with a slight kick from the ginger, this is a beautifully balanced juice, loaded with<br />

chlorophyll and a wide range of nutrients. It does, however, pack quite a punch, so you’ll want to<br />

introduce this highly nutritious juice into your diet slowly.<br />

Tips<br />

To peel ginger root quickly and easily, simply use the edge of a teaspoon. Scrape it back and forth<br />

along the root to remove the skin and reveal the yellow flesh underneath. While we recommend<br />

using fresh wheatgrass juice in this recipe, you’ll also get great results with frozen organic<br />

wheatgrass shots (available in the freezer section of most health food stores). If you are juicing<br />

wheatgrass yourself, be sure to do it before juicing the celery and ginger, so it’s ready to whisk<br />

in immediately.<br />

Juice Guru’s Tips<br />

We recommend drinking only 1 cup (250 mL) of this juice per day because of wheatgrass’s<br />

incredible vitamin and mineral content. A little is all you need. Some people find the taste of<br />

wheatgrass too sweet, and it can even elicit a gag reflex. If this happens to you, just take it slowly.<br />

Once you start consuming wheatgrass on a regular basis (two to three times a week), you will<br />

build up a tolerance—as will your taste buds.<br />
