Kickin’ it with Kale Juice
By Claire Georgiou, Reboot Naturopath, B.HSc ND
Kick back, relax, and drink in this juice that’s full of green goodness that you’re sure to love. Broccoli and kale, both members of the cabbage (Brassica) family, offer immense health benefits in the prevention of cancer, particularly breast, prostate and colon, and helps to enhance the function of the liver (your body’s fat burner!). The sweet pear packs in a high dose of soluble fiber and sweetens this juice right up. Enjoy!
