Autoimmune Green Juice

by

According to Dr. Russell Blaylock, parsley and celery are both very potent in inhibiting autoimmune disease, particulary due to a flavonoid called apigenin which reduces inflammation, and reduces the risk of cancer due to it’s anti-tumor activity. Celery is also very rich in luteolin, a bioflavonoid which is a potent antioxidant that neutralizes free radicals, helps reduce inflammation, and promotes nerve and muscle function.

I make this juice with green apple and a little lemon for extra flavor. It’s super simple and so refreshing!

Dairy-Free Coffee Creme

by

My dairy-free coffee creme is so simple and delicious, you’ll be able to whip it up easily in no time at all.  When I make fresh brewed coffee, I serve it with my coffee cream and coconut sugar, which is also full of nutrients! Go ahead, honey, it’s dairy-free! 🙂

*Always be sure and buy organic coffee beans! Coffee beans are a crop that are heavily sprayed with glyphosates when not organic.
